q SUCCESSFUL YEAR

The Seville Elevator Co. closed a
very successful year. The books show
ing profit OF about $4,000. This
is a wonderful record considering the
working conditions, with only the cap
ital Of $1,000 and an Indebtedness Of
$700 Of the year before. After pay
ing off all debts the company showed
profit Of $752.98.
In reality this little company real
lied about il per cent on the original
investment and did it in the face of
falling prices. y
Seville is only one Of the eight far
mers' elevators In this county all of
which withstood falling prices re-
markably well. d
Realizing the greater business ef-
ficiency and the larger volume Of bus
mess that could be handled If more

TO SWELL QUOTA
Kiwanis Club Starts Ball Rolling in
Medina Village With Subscriptions
Totalling Nearly Seven Hundred
/. Dollars. Y

The final cleanup drive in the
Hoover European Relief fund collec-
ton in Ohio opened Monday, accord
ing to announcement from State
Chairman William Eugene Jones.
Mr.. "A. L. Boyden, chairman Of the
Medina county branch Of the Europ-
can Relief Council, is actively en-
gagged in perfecting his organization,
and already has secured the following
able assistants in the various town
ships.
Liverpool, Mrs. r. c. Hoppe; Bruins
wick, Mrs. D. M. Johnson; Hinckley,
Rev. Chas. Searles; Granger, Mrs.
Clair Miller; Sharon, R. ID. Wall;
Westfield, Fred Eastman; Homer,

Helen Smith; York, G. G. Bohley; La
fayette, Ralph Bostwick; Montville,
Walter Clark; Guilford, J. r. Minton; ;
Medina township, Rev. r. X. Caulk; /;
Wadsworth and Lodi will work direct
ly through state headquarters, as does
Mr.. Boyden.
Medina county people are not re-
garding the present appeal for relief
in the nature of a so-called "drive',
such as have been frequently and al
most incessantly inaugurated for the
past few years, but recognize it as Of
such a worthy character and Of such
Immediate urgency as to be a direct
challenge to conscience and duty.
This was Illustrated last Friday at
the Kiwanis club, when nearly 500
was subscribed in few minutes.
Ohio has been assigned responsible
ity for 100000 children, necessitat-
ing contributions amounting to $2,-
100000 s
Medina has been assigned quota
OF 900 children to care for, and she
is going to do that very thing, both
promptly and cheerfully. Medina
county has it to her everlasting credit
that she has never been found want
ing when tried in the balance, and
she has never failed in anything which
she has undertaken. She will not fail
this time.
With total collections approaching
| $t,5O0,000 and nine counties already
IrepoJtinR their quotas oversubscribed,
State Chairman Jones has called on
all county chairmen to begin an in
tensive effort to push the campaign
to a successful conclusion.
Most counties Of the state are Or
gamzed, according to reports reaching
state headquarters, and money con-
tributed to date assures the saving of
nearly 10000 of. the 3,500,000 Euro
pcan children who are threatened with
starvation unless American relief
work is continued.
In. total subscriptions Cleveland and
Cuyahoga County lead the state, with
a community chest appropriation Of
S666,000. This amount, however, is
not enough to meet Cuyahoga county s
full quota.
In proportion to population, Miami
is Omo's banner county, having con-
tributed $35, 900, which is more than
three times the county quota.
Hamilton county went over the top
last week with community chest
guarantee Of the full amount neces-
sary to make up the quota Of $272,-
09.l.
Athens, Lake, Coshocton, Vinton
Clinton, Fairfield and Morrow coun-
ties have also subscribed their full
quotas.

of Sedition.

Minnesota state supreme court today
took under advisement arguments
urging new trial in the case Of the
state of Minnesota VS.. A. G. Tow hley
and Joseph Gilbert, president and

charge of violating the sedition law

Dean of jackson county to 80 days in
the county Jail on July II, 1919. At
torney George Hoke made an exhaus-
tive argument for the defendants. HI
charged that it was IL matter of'"set-
ting Townley'' by the political RAG
tions opposed to the. Nonparisan
league. He said that Townley never
was in jackson. county while he was
indicted on charge of conspirine
with Gilbert.

dictmcnt in jackson county was
based. Mr.. Hoke said, was held by the

justice had never brought, a. case
against Townley or'the league.

Hoke declared that the trial cour1
had denied them the privilege Of at;

that Teigen was paid to publish re
