Howard Clifton Bell, colored, an ele-

eighteen years old. and living at 2404

court by seeing that ice was placed
in their refrigerators. and in order to
perform such service it was necessary
.efor him to be intrusted with keys to
the apartments.
One after another. the several per-
sons he had obliged appealed to the
police to investigate the disappear
ance of articles of jewelry. One ar
ticle of diamond jewelry missed was
valued at $500, the police were told.
but Howard Was not among the sus-
pected persons.

OPENING Of CAMP
MAY. Be DELAYED
Effort Made to Complete All
Arrangements for Boys
and Young Men.

The effort to secure for the course
OF training at Camp Harding as many
boys and young men within the pre-
, scribed ages Of twelve and seventeen
as possible. and the interest Of donors
to the cause in behalf of boys whose
parents are unable to stand the mess
| cost, may defer the opening of the
camp a few days, perhaps a week, be-
yond August l.
The public schools Of Washington
do not reopen until September 10. and
the opening date of the camp may be
deferred without interference with
the plan to give the boys a full four
weeks of military training and eXpe-
rience.
Willing to Assist.
Since the announcement that many
boys are likely to be prevented from
entering the camp for want of the
| necessary charges several residents
Of Washington have signif1ed their
! Willingness to help in the matter. For
approximately $4,000 the camp can
! care for two hundred boys and young
men for the full course of month.
1t has also been suggested that do
nors to the fund may find a deeper
interest III tne movement III beiUS dc-
corded the privilege of nominating
the boys who are to profit by their
donations.
The chief desire is to give as large
number of boys as possible. of the
proper spirit, the training, which. it
is believed, will be not only of benefit
to the boys themselves. but to the
community at large. The matter Of
health and discipline alone will be
a distinct asset to the city.
Swimming Lessons.
The camp will be beautifully sit
uated on the banks of the canal and
the Potomac, high above the city of
Washington. in a clean. healthy To-
cation surrounded with splendid
shade trees. Exceptional oppOrtuni
ties are offered for those who swim
or wish to learn, and swimming les
sons. by experienced instructors, will
be a feature Of the camps instruc-
tionS.
There is no thought Of profit what
ever to any one but the boys them
selves, the idea of the training camp
being purely altruistic and supported
as far as is possible. by the United
States government itself.
Donations to the fund may be sent
to The Star. which will make ac
acknowledgement of all funds received.

COMMUNITY PICNIC
IS BIG SUCCESS
Large Crowd Gathers In Cit,
Park On Monday

On Monday last about 600 people
from Yale and surrounding country
gathered at our beautiful city park
and enjoyed a get-together picnic.
Labor was forgotten for the after
noon and old and young were on
hand TO take in the festivities.
There were athletic sports and
many close contests were pulled. off
after the picnic dinner which was en-
joyed by many of the families pres
ent.
The program proper began at about
/ 80 and the musical part was a rich
treat for all. The Yale orchestra
played a fine selection and then sis
of our young men sang, and were
forced to respond to an encore. Rev.
Munby invoked blessing on the
gathering and Harold Hallman, who
is home from Chicago on a vacation,
sang beautiful solo Rev. Martin
of the First Presbyterian church en-
tertained the crowd for a few mo-
ments with one of his witty addresses,
after which John Clark. of Bad Axe.
the speaker of the day, was intro
duced by II. c. Martin, chairman of
the celebration.
Mr. Clark gave very pleasing talk.
and at all times held the attention
of his hearers He sure came with
message to those who believe in
community cooperation.
The baseball game between the city
and high school teams was an inter
esting exhibition OF the national sport.
"Shine" Beadle umpired half the
game. but was retired in favor of
Bin Campbell, who was a bear
on decisions. OF course. Bill was i'm
partial, but some Of his decisions
were bit funny. The game ended
in a victory for the High team. to
the tune of d to 9.
The verdict of every one present
was that the picnic was success
and these get-together events should
be held Oftener

TOO MUCH MOONSHINE

For the past two or three Satur-
day nights (and Sundays, too)
there have been disgraceful exhi-
bitions of too much moonshine on
our streets, and it's pretty nearly
time something was done. The
decent, law abiding citizens of
lear little city are beginning to
get tired of seeing so many
drunks on the streets, and if the
practice is continued there is liza

MennOnites Are Expecting Large

One of the big yearly events

manent camping place.

ly, as follows 60 100 a. m., prayer
meeting; fellowship meeting and
preaching forenoon, afternoon
and evening.

and there is always a large crowd
of visitors present at every SER

Babylon Was World Center

For nearly two thousand years
Babylon was the center of the
worlds civilization. Her script
and her Language were known in
Egypt and on the shores of the
Mediterrean, and were the uni.
versal medium of communication
between educated men. She was
the bank and emporium of the East,
and in the age of her splendor, with
her daughter states around her,
dominated the thoughts of mankind.
What Rome has been, and London
is, that Babylon was-"the glory of
kingdoms, the beauty of Chaldees'
excellency." Isaiah l3, 49,
Her ruins are still wonderful; but
she has left us spiritual ruins, too,
and these are yet more strange.
The debt of ancient Israel to Baby
Ion was enormous. The code of
Hammurabi tB. c. 2200) may well
have influenced the Mosaic code; the
angelology of later Jewish Scripture
was Babylonian in origin; the stories
of Creation, the Fall, and the Del.
uge are of Babylonian ancestry
Little wonder if, when the end came
and she fell, cry went through the
earth that had once feared her pow
er, her pride, her universal empire

PLANES COMING FOR
BIG CELEBRATION
Contract Signed BY Those In
Charge For Filler On
Each Day

On Friday last a contract was
signed by the committee in charge
of the Caledonian Celebration to
have an aeroplane here on each
of their big days-Sept. 6 and 7.
The planes are to be furnished
by the Michigan Aero-Service
Corporation, and anyone wishing
to have ride on either day can
make arrangements to do so.
Besides the Scotch program that is
to be furnished by the Cameron
Troupe, we can announce for one
Of the days an event which should
be witnessed by everyone. The
celebration will be made the oc-
casion for the presenting of the
colors to Frederick w. Hyde Post
No. 800, American Legion, also a
silk Post banner. The colors are
presented by Edward Andreae,
and the banner by VIM Hyde and
family and others. 1t is expected
one Of the leading American Leg
ion speakers of the state will be
present and make the presenta-
tion speech.
There will be plenty of doings
en- each Of the big days, also the
evening of the first day when the
big Scotch concert will be staged
You want to begin planning now
to attend both days, for you not
only get your moneys worth, but
you are helping the boys raise a
little money for the purpose OF
renting and furnishing quarters
for their meetings.

FERGUSON REUNION.

The first Ferguson family reunion
was held at the home of Joseph Bur
ton in West Brockway, Sunday, Aug.
18th. This gathering was made up
of cousins and their families, the
older generations having all been call
ed to their home beyond. There were
43 in attendance, several not being
able to be present.
After bountiful dinner was serv-
ed, officers were elected. On account
of it being Sunday there were no
games whatever.
The next meeting will be held at
the home of Herbert Ferguson at
Shabbona in June, 1922. AS the
day drew to close, lemonade and
more eats were served, all returning
to their homes well pleased with the

HOOTCH "PIZEN" THEY SAY.

One prohibition officer who got
friendly with the bootleggers of his
city and learned some of their Sc
crets reports the booze they hand
out contains 20 to 30 per cent of
pure ether, or enough to eat away
the lining of the stomach. Ten men in
that community recently died from
booze poisoning. In Chicago most of
the bootleg stuff consists of diluted
tobacco with a large percentage of
nicotine Nicotine in concentrated
form has a kick" sufficient to wreck
if not kill drinker. Then there Is
a mixture of wood alcohol, ether and
prune juice that is as deadly as pns-
sic acid. Give the bootleggers time
and they'll make the prohibitory law
easy, says an observer.
