One Office for One Secretary.

The Army and Macy Journal re
cords this Encouragement Of nava
affairs In Washington:
Having decided that the efii-
cheney of the various bureau chiefs
who must necessarily consult him on
important matters OF administration
was affected by a division OF his
time between two offices. Secretary
DENpY on April 1s decided to occupy
his Office in the new Navy Building
in Potomac Park. Washington, ex-
clusively.
"The spacious and sumptuousiy
furnished offices he abandoned In the
State. War and Navy Building may
now be allotted to the State or War
Department. as may be decided.
Secretary DENBY, 1t was stated, was
moved by no other consideration in
coming to this decision. for bureau
chiefs had to lose considerable time
to go to the uptown Office which the
Secretary has occupied mornings, to
consult him. and then return to the
new Navy Building.
He came to the conclusion that
concentration in one office would be
more satisfactory all around, and
that members of Congress could
just as well see him at the building
which contains all tine offices OF the
Navy Department"
The announcement that the Secre
tary will hereafter restrict himself
to attendance at one office and thai
office the one which is most conven
iently situated as to his departmental
duties and his professional adviser.
will probably strike Congress as revo
lutionary. The office Secretary
DENNY has occupied in the State
War and Navy Building Is more
easily accessible from the Capitol
neighborhood than are his quarters
In the new Navy Building. To SEE
the Secretary In the interests of .
constituent will involve an extra eff
fort on the part Of Senator or Rep
resentative in the future.
Business men will wonder why such
4 division of executives as has ex
listed was tolerated any longer thar
was necessary. 1t made for waste o.
time, confusion, misunderstanding
But nothing is to be gained by specu
lating about errors of the past; the
country will be glad TO see move
ment toward the rectification Of slip
shod practices In the future.

appropriate appearance TO sail on the

The search for men having the quail

Memorials.

Not marble monuments, or shrines,
Or wooden crosses, are as real
Memorials to those we loved
AS things we see and hear and feel.
A casual word, a wistful tune,
a fragrance blown from garden
flowers.
May make as actual as now
The sense of unforgotten hours.
Sunsets, and scents, and bu1ded springs
The Joy that love of living lends
When comradeship has shared In these,
They each bring back the absent
friends.

crowd gathered in the gym to watch
the snappy game, which kept the
crowd in an uproar. At the end of the

Edgerton came back and Gagged baskets
in rapid succession. After the game
the Legion gave dance at the club

Drive for Funds.

Edgerton has turned the page of a
new year in comfortable frame of
mind. All of our citizens with few ex-
ceptions are we'll fed and reasonably
prosperous Most families Toasted
through the holiday season and if per-
chance Lazarus happened along there
were enough crumbs that fell from the
table to satisfy his hunger.
In the war stricken countries of Eu-
rope are $500, 900 helpless children
whose care and sustenance are the
special charge of Americans, operating
through special relief funds under Her
bert Hoover's administration. Thirty
three million dollars is the minimum
sum that will preserve the lives of
these children until the next harvest
brings normal food supplies. Not more
than half the amount is yet in sight,
though Mr.. Hoover's appeals to the
American people have been direct, nu-
merous and eloquent. The relief COM
mittee will have no option but to turn
these starving children into the streets
unless the fund is doubled within the
next few weeks. Hunger, misery, dis
ease, death for millions of children are
the alternative of Americas failure to
heed the most humanitarian call since
the war closed. Ten American dollars
will save one of these little war vic.
TINS from slow starvation and death.
The people of Edgerton will not fail
to heed this pathetic appeal. Our por-
ton is only $4,000. The drive begins
Monday, Jan. 10th. Will the pastors
of the different churches both in the
city and the country please bring the
matter through an announcement in
their pulpits next Sunday, Jan. 9th,
before their congregations? All other
organizations are requested to do the
same in their respective orders.
If we have determined to begin the
new year right, we certainly should
consider this not only a duty but a
great opportunity. Remembering the
Master when He said, Whatsoever We
have done unto the least of these, We
have done it unto Me-"

A HERO LAID TO REST.

Guy w. Ogden Buried With impress
sive Military Honors.
With full military ,honors, the body
of Sergeant Guy W.. Ogden was laid
away to its final rest in Fassett GENE
terry last Sunday afternoon. After
brief services at the home and Congre-
gational church, the impressive military
ceremony was conducted at the grave.
Rev. C. L. Atkins, acting as chaplain,
read the committal and pronounced the
benediction. The firing squad fired a
salute, the bugler blew ''taps," and
the color guard presented the flag for
which the young man had given his life.
! to the parents, and the soldier was at
peace.
Guy w. Ogden, the second of five
sons of MIR. and Mrs. George Ogden,
was born thirty years ago in Edgerton.
His whole life was spent here until he
enlisted. AS boy and young man, he
attracted all who knew him by his
sterling qualities and his manly strength.
When the Edgerton platoon was formed
he joined, April 20, 1917, and was made
corporal. The platoon left here for
Camp Douglas on August 8, where it
remained until September Is, when it
was moved to Camp Macarthur. On
February 10, 1918, the division sailed
for France, arriving at Brest on March
a. While at Macarthur, Corporal Og-
den had been attached to Co. NJ, 128th
Regiment, 32nd Division, and had been
made sergeant. This division, as all
the world knows, was in the thickest
of the fighting, and in particularly
fierce battle before Juvigny, Sergeant
Ogden was killed in action, August 80,
1918, when just about to receive d COM
mission. His body was buried on the
battlefield, but returned to America in
December, 1920, landing at Hoboken
December IA, and arriving in Edgerton
on the 31st.
The funeral was in charge of the
local chapter of the American Legion,
Will Dickinson acting as commander.
About thirty members of Co. M came
up from GAINESVILLE and joined with the
local boys in forming the escort for
their late comrade. 1t is fitting that
all of us who now benefit by the sacri-
flee of the soldiers who died at the
front, should unite in paying all possi-
BILE honor to them. The return of the
bodies from France gives opportunity
for doing this reverence. and more than
this, gives quiet satisfaction to the
parents that their boys are near them.
Their deeds shall be remembered and
all that they died for shall be kept
pure.
