Wheeler home on Brooklawn ave- nue was retired from the force at the regular monthly meeting of the po- lice commissioners last night when 1t was found that his physical condi- ton would not warrant the continu- ance of active duty. He was retired With pension equal to his rank as a patrolman.
 Murphy pleaded guilty to the charge or neglect of duty in that he fell asleep while on duty but the charges that Murphy might have been intox- icated were not upheld.

.BESIECE DOCTOR
 IN OWN HOUSE

New York, Oct. 5.-Dr. Frederick K. Sanborn, member of the state board of health, today faced the all ternative of contesting Mrs. James c. Barkers interpretation of the rent laws or giving up the comfortable bome in which he had planned to spend the winter,
 Dr. and Mrs. Sanborn, who had leased their home flor the summer to Mrs. Barker, returned yesterday to be informed by Mrs. Barker that the rent laws prohibited her ejection- lease or no lease-without tedious court proceedings, and that she in tended to stand by her rights" and protect the roomers she had taken in
 When Mrs. Barker was not looking, Dr. Sanborn smuggled his wife to an attic room which they found vacant and there they "entrenched,' fearing to leave lest a cordon of roomers sta- toned at all doors would prevent their return. They were being fed by friends who threw sandwich es through the window of their "attic outpost"

Had 22 Goats.

A woman reported the other day
that when she undertook to clean
house, she found that her husband
was the proud owner and possessor
of 22 coats. There were winter coats
and summer coats, the once swell
coat he was married in, his rainy
day coat, sweater coat, the coats
he used to work in the garden in,
linen coats for extreme hot weather,
and several oyercoats for winter and
spring use. automobile coats, etc.
While that is an extreme case, yet
a lot of people allow old stuff to
accumulate, all of it degenerating
and subject to moths. Old clothes
are fashionable now. Much of this
stuff could be worn without social
disgrace, even by any "highbrow.".
People in DEBORAH who hoard such
clothing should sort it over, and give
away what they are too proud to
wear. Plenty of people could find
use for it in these times.

FARM BUREAU GLEANINGs.
L. j. Crawford Resigns as President
of Farm Bureau, VIM. Heading
ton Elected to Fill
Vacancy.

1t was quite a surprise to the
members of the Farm Bureau Execu-
tive Committee in session last
Saturday, when the Secretary, Mr.
4. T. Istad, of Madison Twp, pre-
sented the resignation of T. ]. Craw-
ford as president. Mr.. Crawford has
constantly been called to assist in
the organization of Farm Bureaus
in Wisconsin and feels that because
of his continued absence he cannot
serve the Farm Bureau in the cap
acity Of president as he would like
to. In letter recently received, Mr..
Crawford writes as follows "No
organization can do much without
head. The County Agent needs the
Farm Bureau President where he
can use him. l feel that l am not
doing what president could do if
on the ground where he ought to be-
Matters are constantly coming up
where council with the president is
necessary. Farm Bureau organization
work in other states will keep me
away for some time so I want the
Farm Bureau to know that this
action is for the good of our as
scciation and that same can expect
all my support at any time for the
good of the organization.
Wishing you success in every
undertaking, I am
(Signed) T. J. CRAWFORD.
In the light of present condit-
ions the Executive Committee acted
according to Mr.. Crawford's sug-
gestions and accepted his resignation
with regret, feeling while the local
Farm Buerau was losing his active
services, the Farm Bureau movement
was making the best possible use of
his undivided time and attention.
While the Farm Bureau is losing
its able president, it was at the
same time fortunate that the Execu-
tive Committe could see fit to elect
and secure the active support of its
vice president, Mr. VIM. Headington
to the Office of president. Mr.. Head
ington has been closely identified
with the Farm Bureau movement
ever since its introduction in Winnie
sliiek county, having been treasurer
for two years and vice president thus
far this year. Because of Mr.. Craw-
ford's absence from the county he
has really been acting president
practically all the time thus far. The
Farm Bureau organization then goes
on without any interruption in its
organization. The good work which
has been started will continue with
increased zest. Mr.. f. w. Gross was
elected vice president to fill the
vacancy caused by the promotion of
VIM. Headington.
The Executive Committee deliber-
ated upon a celebration of Every
body's Federation Picnic here at
DEBORAH some time in the fall. The
President of the State Federation
Lad been tentatively dates for Labor
Lay, September 9Th. This date was
decided upon as a logical time for a
county wide. in fact, Northeastern
Iowa celebration and picnic at the
DEBORAH Park. A committee was ap-
pointed to confer with other organi-
cations including the city. More
definite announcements will be made
later.
