Some members Of the party vis-
tied relatives in Germany and re-
turned with stories OF how these
had been comparatively wealthy be-
fore the war. but were now, while
still living in sumptuous homes,
at their wits ends to provide food
and clothing. Girls are working
all weeks in factories for sum not
exceeding SO cents in American
money and among the higher paid
workers $50 month was the peak.

Mr.. LaVelle sailed June 30 and

Italy and Austria. In England and
France the natives have developed
a reserve toward Americans, ac-
cording to Mr.. LaVelle, which one
Englishman explained to a member

"Now, don't you 60 back and tel
them at home that you won tht

well, we helped to win it, didn't

this the Englishman answered ir
the affirmative. In Germany, how.

lO8 Years Ago Last Wednesday

Credit Island, also known as
Offerman's Island and Suburban
Island, has an early history in the
development of this community that
is worth telling.
On September 6, 1914, a detach-
ment of American soldiers under
Zachary Taylor. afterwards hero Of
the Mexican War and later Presi-
dent of the United States, fought an
engagement with 80 British SOL
diers reinforced by 1000 Indian
allies from both sides of the river.
The expedition under Zachary Tay-
lor was sent from St Louis to pun
ish the Indians of this vicinity for
their attack upon a previous expe-
ditton under John Campbell-the
Battle Of Campbell's Island (Rock
Island County Memories. No p.
The British at Prairie du Chen,
through friendly Indians, heard Of
the progress of Major Taylor up the
river and sent company Of 80 men
with brass three-pounder cannon
and two swivel guns to the mouth
of Rock River to harasS TaylOr'S
men and disable his fleet of eight
keel boats. Lieutenant Graham, in
charge of the British force, placed
his cannon on the island (now the
ArsenaU commanding the upper
rapids at the narrowest point, to
prevent Taylor's ships from further
ascending the river. When Taylor's
expedition passed Rock River in
their clumsy boats and came of
Credit Island a terrific wind storm
blew them ashore just above the
island. The British commander
noting the predicament Of the Am
orleans, loaded his cannon into
boats, crossed to the Iowa side.

they could rake the Americans with
destructive fire. He then gathered
his Indian allies and awaited the
sunlight.
At a. m, Sept. 6, 1914, the
Battle Of Credit Island began. Both
banks of the river swarmed with
Indian braves in war paint. They
crossed the river in canoes. They
circled the island. From behind
every tree peered a painted war
rior. Despite the destructive gun
fire Of the British cannon, which
badly shattered the American ships,
Major Taylor managed to drop
down the river out of danger under
cover of landing party from each
boat, who went ashore and drove
the enemy on the small willow
covered island through the shallow
water to Credit Island, where they
were raked by broadsides from the
portfolio of the keel boats.
The Battle Of Credit Island was
the last clash in the west before the
treaty between the Americans and
British was signed. One year after
ward Fort Armstrong was built.
The Credit Island of today is an
ideal pleasure spot for camping,
picnics, golf, tennis and out-of-
doors; an inn. serving excellent
meals and refreshments adds to the
comfort of all visitors. A trip to
the island affords splendid view
Of the river, rest, recreation and
enjoyment, as well as an oppor-
tunity to think back to the Battle
on the Island and the development
of this community since those STIR
ring days.
The street cars run direct to the
Island. The fare from this side Of
the river is 16 cents through buy
ing q Bridge Line ticket. The trip
is we'll worth your while. Make it

and urging that other cities follow the
pace set by the Jackson county capi-
tai. The first hydro-eIectric plant in
Florida, which is serving half dozen
cities, was placed in commission SO
long ago by Marion county business
men that the event has almost been
forgotten. In May, 1911, nearly twelve
years ago, the Florida Power Com
pany, with Offices in Ocala, began oper-
atlng Its plant on the Withlacoochee
river, few miles below Dunnellon,
furnishing power to that city and
phosphate mines in the vicinity. At
the present time the plant is serving,
in addition to Dunnellon, Crystal
River, Inverness, Floral City, Bush
nell, Brooksyille. and several smaller
towns and host of industrial enter
prises. More and more OcaIa realizes
her mistake in not taking advantage
of this power when, so to speak, it
was handed TO her on a silver platter.

Little Rock Man is Enthusiastic About
Taniac--Deciares She Suffered

c. o. Farabee, S11 Elm street, Lit
tie Rock, Ark, a retired merchant
and stock dealer who still holds bank
ing and farming interests in Arkansas,
is enthusiastic about Tanlac In re-
lating the remarkable benefits receiv-
ed by his wife from the use of the
medicine he said:
If anyone had told me few months
ago that it was possible for any medi-
cine TO help anybody as much as Tan
las did my wife | wouldn't have be-
lieved them. But it's a fact, it has
done more for her than all the medi-
cines and. treatments she took in the
| past fifteen years put together, and
for the first time in all these years
she is what could be called well and
strong.
"To make matters worse, about
three months ago she had to undergo
an operation for appendicitis and after
the operation she was in a weak and
helpless condition She had no appe-
lite, could not digest her food proper
ly and had awful attacks of palpata-
tion of the heart and shortness of
breath. She had no strength nor ener-
gy and we could find nothing to build
her up.
Fortunately, one of her friends
brought her bottle of Tanlac, and
it is certainly wonderful how she
responded to this medicine. 1t gave
her a splendid appetite and she SEEM
ed to get new life and energy with
every dose. All her stomach trouble
disappeared, the color came back to
her cheeks and she began to sleep
like a healthy child all night long.
She looks twenty years younger, too.
