For two years an old four poster
bed stood in the yard of a shabby,
rundown house on East Sixth street.
II attracted the attention of Miss
Grace Gilmore, member of the high
scnool faculty, who passed the place
daily on her way to school. The bed,
painted a dull. reddish color, was
weather beaten and undesirable look
ing and had apparently been out Of
use for years.
Attached to one post was a cord
which had tied to the bed the feet of
who seemed to be the only inha bitant
of the old place. The bed had sag
ging rope springs. which may have
been new fifty or seyenty-five years
ago.
Miss Elmore, interested in the an
tique style of the bed, inquired of the
old woman owner if she would sell it.
Glad to make money from something
which she considered worth nothing,
the owner parted with the bed for
fifty cents. Miss Gilmore consulted
expert furniture finishers about re-
finishing the bed and they asked 500
for the work. Directing to the ex-
pense, she consulted the manual train
ing department of the high school and
arranged to have the bed refinished
by high school workers. After the
thick coating of paint was removed.
the bed was found to be of fine wal
nut, and, according to experts in an
tique furniture collecting. about 100
years old. 1t is now a handsome four

Western avenue. Captain Lindsay has
an enviable war record, having ac-
copied a commission as first lieutenant
in the medical corps at the first of the
war. He has been in service more
than. three years, and since December,
1913, has been with the army of occu-
patton. He will report back to Camp

Captain Lindsay tells interesting
stories about the army of occupation.
A large number of the enlisted per-
sonnet have married German girls
and are under orders to report back to
the states with their fraus. The mar
ried men in the army of occupation
are few, according to the captain. and
the men who have been married are
being sent back as fast as possible.
Germany is beginning to feel the
shortage of edibles." said the captain,
"and it gets harder all the time to buy
from the shops. German money val
ues are doing large amount of fluc-
tuating and until the prices again be-
come settled the prices in Germany
will be high. The thrifty German
shop-keeper will take no chances on
coming up short at the end of the
month"
