Bigger Bertha
Claims Range
OF 200 Miles

PARIS, Jan. 1.-The French and
Belgians are testing a super-long
range gun, estimated to be able to fire
a shell 200 miles.
The French and Belgian military
authorities are endeavoring to keep
particulars of the weapon secret.
The first tests were held near the
end of December on the Belgian ar
tillery range at Vivegnis, neal Liege.
The tests lasted six days and were
held under the supervision of the
French inventor, Lieut.. Col. Maze, and
French and Belgian officers.
The small model used as the testing
gun was the size Of a French three
inch field, built along special lines.
The inventor has named the gun
Turbo," because, turbinelike, the pro-
jectile increases its speed after leav-
ing the gun.
The remarkable range of the gun is
claimed on three factors-the explos-
i've used, the gun itself, and the pro-
jectile.
Improvements and refinements in
the she'll are said to reduce resistance,
permitting a longer range with the
same initial speed.

RODGERS AND
FORD MAKE
FINE RECORD

Judge R. D. Rodgers and J.. G. Ford,
until January list, 1921 Prosecuting
Attorney and Sheriff of Audrain
county have a record for turning into
the county treasury during the past
four years more money than I'M
other two similar officials in the his
tory of the county according to figures
compiled in the County Treasurer's Of
fee this week. They both made most
efficient and capable officers and their
record is an interesting one and most
likely cannot be equalled by similar
officials in any other county this size
in the state.
Sheriff Ford during the last four
years turned into the county in fines
in the Justice courts $2,089.3O. Pros
ecuting Attorney Rodgers turned into
the county treasury in fines from
convictions in the Circuit Court So
The costs of the cases in both
courts amounted to $1717 which left
a net return to the county in dollars
and cents during their administrations
of $9,821.95 |.

Wilson And l18 Other
Notables Protest
Anti Jew Propaganda

BENNINGTON, vt. January IT,
A protest against anti Semitic propo-
ganda in the United States, bearing
the names of President Wilson, Will
liam H. Taft, Cardinal O'Connell and
116 other widely known men and
women of Christian faith, was made
public here last night by John Sparge,
Socialist writer. 1t exhorts partic-
ularly those who are 'molders of pub
lie ~opinion-the clergy and ministers
of all Christian churches, publicists,
teachers, editors and statesmen-to
strike at this un-American and un-
Christian agitation"
I'VE regret exceedingly" the pro-
test said, the publication of a number
of books, pamphlets and newspaper
articles designed to foster distrust
and suspicion of our fellow-citizens of
Jewish ancestry and faith-distrust
and suspicion of their loyalty and
their patriotism"

side of the building will be without
a porch. This side, it is expected,
later to add additions to when the
building may be enlarged.
1t is planned to screen a portion of
the porch as a ummer dining room.
The lounging room will be so built
as to make it with unusually high
ceilings and extra ventilation arrange
ments to assur its being cool in sum-
A deep well and pressure tank will
surrly water, electric lights will be
installed in the structure and a septic
tank built to take care of the sewage.

School Girls
To Get Chance to
Take up Nursing

High school girls and other young
women of Mexico who are interested
in choosing a vocation will have the
opportunity to be brought in direct
contact with the attractions and op-
portunities offered in the profession
of nursing, according to an announce
ment received here today by w. W.
Fry of the Mexico Red Cross chapter,
which states that a special speaker
on this subject will be detailed here
for an address on the opportunities Of
this occupation if desired by officials
of the chapter.
The offer of a speaker is part
of a campaign to assign speak
ers to talk at any school gathering of
girls and young women where permits
sion Of the school authorities and CO.
operation of the local chapter is Sc
cured. 1t hoped by this means to re-
cruit the badly undermined ranks of
the nursing professions and believe
the serious shortage caused in this
country by the dearth of nurses. The
Red Cross is cooperating in the eff
fort with the three largest nursing or
.ganizations in the United States.
