It's a pleasure to write about
the Anti-Tank CO., Ohio National
Guard, because it is your Nation
al Guard. AS citizens and tax
payers you're all stockholders
in this enterprise and you ought
to know just how much of an
asset it is to Marysville.
1t is especially timely to take
a look at the National Guard to-
day, because we are about ready
to launch great recruiting drive.
This drive, naturally will begin
Sept. is, and has a national goal
of 88,888 recruits-a-mana-min-
ute over a period of two months.
The goal in the state is 5000 and
the goal we've set here in Marys-
vile is-well, the skys the limit.
Sure" you say, Il know all
about the National Guard. ] used
to see the boys drilling before the
war and I've seen them a couple
of times lately. What's there to
get so excited about now" Well,
there are lots of things to get ex-
cited about. If you only know the
National Guard by what it was
before the war, I'd like to tell
you that what is being built now
is a new National Guard.
Its about three times the size
of the pre-war guard, because
we've got a heavier burden of

TRUCK NEARLY
DROPS into RUN

Leroy Marshall, employee of
the Union County Farm Bureau,
was handed quite a surprise
when the right rear wheels of his
truck went through the wood
planks covering the Town Run at
the Farm Bureau building, at BIS
pm, Wednesday.
The truck had just been loaded
from a freight car on the track
in back of the Farm Bureau. Mr..
Marshall had driven around the
southeast corner of the building,
to unload at the unloading en-
trance on the Fourth st. side of
the building.
However, he failed to get the
right tires to track on the road,
and the wood planks that cover
the run along side of the road,
were not able to stand the weight
of the truck and the five tons of
feed. The only apparent damage
done to the truck was a broken
right side board, caused by the
shifting of the load.
:. A. crew. of the employees i'm
mediately unloaded the feed,
which was put up in 100 pound
sacks.
In addition to the broken
boards beside the road, one plank
under the road topping was
Jared completely loose and
another pushed up. From all that
can be seen by the observer, it
would seem that all that covers
the Town Run on E. Fourth st,
are two-by-eight planks with an
inch or inch and a half of
asphalt on top.

men and visitors from sister con-
gregations are expected to be
present. Carl Blumenschein, son
of the jubilarian, will be guest
organist, and the combined choirs
of the congregation, under the
direction of Ralph Frick, will
present Brahms "How Lovely is
Thy Dwelling Place"
Inasmuch as 48 years of his
career were served at st. Martini
parish school, all those i'm the
audience who, at some time in the
past were pupils under Mr.. Blum
.enschein will rise to do, special
honor to their former teacher. To
a loyal and proficient servant,
who for almost an entire lifetime
has consecrated his talents to the
glory of God, this tribute will be
most fitting; and this gesture
should impress upon all observers
the significance of Christian ed
ucation.

Big Job Ahead!
Begin Cleaning
At Court House

Not to mention an unpleasant
subject, which usually arises a
this time of year, but it would
seem, from all the buckets, mops
rags, boxes, ETC., which are clut-

Union county Courthouse, that
house cleaning time is here. And
that's just what it is.
The newly refinished court
needed little done to it; however,
floors and woodwork every
where are being given good
scrubbing and the dust sent fly
ing from all old records and files
Dana Stump, caretaker of the

crew of helpers, have a good start
on their work, but are already
looking forward to the time when
they will be making the last
swish of the mop and rag.

This time, the truck was cross

bent the axle of the right front

which was fully loaded over on
its right side. The Huffman wreck

But lets come closer in, as in

MONARCHS PLAY
'MECHANICSBURG
TEAM ON FRIDAY
Anything Can-Happen'
History Of Contests
Between These Rivals

One of those anything
Observation-Disclosures" games
is in store for the Marysville high
school Monarchs when they tax
the field against the Indians of
Mechanicsburg on the latter's
gridiron, Friday night. Game time
is set for 8 p. m.
The Marysville- -Mechanicsburg
series extends back for more than
10 years, and the two schools are
about even-up as regards games
won and lost. On several occa-
sions, the Monarchs have gone
into the game odds-on favorites,
only to lose, and the same thing
has happened to the Burg team
more than once.
1t has worked out that Marys-
vile and Mechanicsburg games
have upset the dope bucket on
more occasions than almost any
other rival the Monarchs meet.
All of which, of course, has simply
added that much more to the in
terest of the games. One just
never knows what may happen
next.
Good Game Foreseen
This year, another well-played,
closely-contested game is in store
for the fans who go to Mechanics
burg Friday night.
The Indians opened their season
last Friday with an 1876 victory
over very promising Mt. Ster-
ling aggregation, while the Mon
archs were looking just $3.50 in
settling for 1913 tie with Wor-
thington.
Of course, another weeks pract-
ice may make a world of diffen-
ence in the Monarchs' perfor-
nance, especially in the line play.
Little fault could be found with
the backs in Friday nights open
er, but most of the linemen show
ed need for experience.
Work On Weak Spots
Coach Paul WenzeI has spent
most of the week drilling his team
on weaknesses which showed up
in the Worthington contest and
the results will be apparent Fri
day night. Particularly, he has
been endeavoring to put more
speed into the line, which was
just a trifle slow in charging in
the opener, and therefore, at a
disadvantage most of the time.
The Mechanicsburg team is
built around "Bucky" Davis,
fleet-footed half-back who is a
great ball carrier. The lad starts
fast, is a shifty runner and hard
to bring down once he gets his
hands on the leather.
He played only one quarter in
the M ar ysville- -Mechanicsburg
game a year ago, which Marys-
vile won 300, being shelved late
in the first period by nasty
bump on the head. But in that
one quarter, the Davis lad de-
monstarted enough football to
make the Monarchs know he was
quite boy.
Several hundred MarysvilIe fans
are expected to follow the team
to Mechanicsburg, Friday, and
