GENERAL PERSH!NG
 HAS NEW SCHEME
 FOR GENERAL STAFF

Washington, Aug. 17-Complete re- organization of the army general staff along lines tested in France by General Pershing, as commander of the American expeditionary forces, is understood to have been approved by Secretary Weeks.
 The new scheme contemp1ates five sections of the general staff. It is suggested that the nomenclature used overseas be retained, such as G-1, G-2, etc., for the various sections.
 The first section will have jurisdic- ton over personnel. The second will constitute the intelligence service. The third will be known as the opera uons and trailing section, the fourth will be the supply section, and the fifth will be the war plans section.
 Heads of G-1 and G-3 have been selected and will be announced soon. Both are men of distinguished war services. Brigadier General w. D. Connor, chief of the supply section, A E. F., already has been named to head GA.
 The new scheme of organization is said by military experts to have the advantage of bringing men of proved ability to offices, the duties of which they are already familiar with by reason of their war experience.

Extra Young Man
Faces Serious Charge

Some booze and a gun, it is said
worked together to cause near
tragedy in our little city last Sun
day evening when Ben Green fol-
lowed Miss Katheryn Hansen and
her escort, Bill Elwood, to her home
in the south part of town and
threatened for a short time to dis
turb the peaceful atmosphere in
that section. The arrival of the
marshal on the scene hastily put an
end to the trouble and restored CON
ditions to normal.
Monday morning in Audubon hs
waived preliminary hearing and
was bound over to the grand jury.
His bond was fixed at $500 which
was easily secured and he was re-
leased. He is again behind the
counters at the Extra Drug Stors
where he has been an efficient en-
ploye for several months.
1t is reported that Green was in
toxicated and his brain so befogged
that he was not wholly responsible
for his act. In that case the law
abiding citizens of Extra would like
to learn who is responsible for thu:
presence of the forbidden fire wa
ter" which steals away the wits Of
our otherwise worthy citizens.

School Visitation Week,
January l7th-21st

While most of our one room
schools were kept in very good con-
ditlon there are a few that are in
serious condition. They have not
been cleaned as they SHOULD have
been. This was a trying year for
corn picking took the men, women
and children. Now these schools
/ that need cleaning and fixing up
should be attended to at once.
Teachers are sending in complaints
and we'll they should. Also parents
are sending complaints that some
OF the schools are not swept as they
should be and that some teachers
pay scarcely any attention to ven
(, tilatlon. These are both seriols
charges. We expect the schools
put in sanitary conditions and thea
expect the teacher to keep then
clean and ventilated. The bllsi-.
ness Of the farm now will not in
terfere 30 that schools that have
not been put in good condition can
be looked after now and made ft-
for teachers and pupils.
Now am going to set aside the
week beginning January 18th as
| school visiting week. Parents and
school offic rs will you not take this
week to visit your schools, not in 8
spirit of criticism, but in the spirit
of helpfulne>s. Talk with your
teacher about the needs of the
school You ought to have Par
ent-Teacher's Association in every
! community or a Community Club.
In these meetings you can have
your social affairs and your literary
programs Don't forget to visit
the schools this week, and teachers
you be ready to tell the needs of
the schools.
| am going to ask tile teachers to
report their visitors for that week.
Let us see how much interest diff
! ferent neighborhoods will show in
! their schools.
