PLAN IN MAKING Hundreds Will be Connected in Liberty Loan Organization. THE WOMEN TO HELP Committee Meets Tonight to Arrange for Celebration for April Sixth. The work of organizing the county for the Third Liberty Loan drive is going right along and indications are that it will arouse our people to a greater sense of need to act than has any thing else. The committee having in charge the celebration of April 6th, opening day of tlie campaign, will meet tonight to discuss plans. The women with Mrs. 1 aye Knapp as chairman are completing a wonderful organization and will aid in many ways. Plans for the watch meetings are being made and an order for a ton of publicity matter has been given. Speeches will be held in every school district of the coun'y and all this work or the greater part must be done before the campaign proper opens. j

In the county, captains are being named for each township and corporation and these will name lieutenants for each schoo district. In this city there will be a captain for each precinct and lieutenants for each block.

A boy baby was born this morning to Mr. and Mrs. Harry C. Andrews • ( Washington township and he has been named John Francis, after his two grandfathers on his maternal side. Marion Andrews, now great uncle is as proud and happy as he can be and who can blame him? The term “pocket handkerchief” is one of the queerest in our language. At first it meant kerchief (courve-| chef,) a covering for the head: then it became handkerchief, a covering fcr the head carried in the hand, and at length pocket handkerchief, a covering for the head in the hand and kept in the pocket. An electric driven revolving bruih. supplied with water through the rollow handle, saves time and labor as a motor-car washer, says Ihe Popular j Mechanics magazine. Flexlble-shmt and hose connections are made with a motor and pipe at the ceiling. lae lai ter i.s a horizontal arm that carries the motor at its outer end. It is pivotally connected so that it may he swung in a complete circle, and is supported by a trolley hanger that travel , on a circular track.

TO EVERY INDIANA FATHER a g a (With a Son Over 16 and Under 21) "It's this way, Dad Uncle Sam Is up against it. He is playing £ the biggest game for the greatest cause the world has ever known, « ? "Freedom of Humanity.” The score is now tied and he has to run in j* a few substitutes because most of the older fellows have either gone 3 off to fight or are building ships and manufacturing munitions. Now, g 3 they won't let me be a soldier yet, and I am neither a shipbuilder nor a . 3 mechanic, but I have a good, clean, strong body and the determination | I? to do a man’s job, so Uncle Sam wants me to substitute next spring p 4 and summer on a farm. j "I do not care particularly about being a farmer, but I do care i if about being a man, so therefore I am going to make a ilttle sacrifice I 3 and play the game where Uncle Sam says I can serve him best. So, J | I want your written permission to join the "United States Boys' Work- J iing Reserve.” “After I am placed on a farm, if I prove I am worth it, I'll make t probably $20.00 to $30.00 per month, with board and washing, which K is equal to $60.00 in the city. This might not be as much money as I g 3 could earn at home, but I’ll save more in the country and besides, they J? 3 say, ‘IT’S WHAT YOU SAVE. NOT WHAT YOU EARN, THAT | COUNTS. Even if I do make a little less money in the country, still 8 ; you must remember, Dad, that there are thousands of soldiers in the ; army getting $30.00 per month who could easily make $75.00 or SIOO.OO •; • per month if they were home. But they don’t grumble, for they are ; making this sacrifice for you and me for their country. And just so It J MUST we make an equal sacrifice for them and for Uncle Sam/ g i BESIDES, IT IS NOT WHAT A MAN MAKES, BUT WHAT HE 8 ; DOES, THAT COUNTS NOW. “Anyway, in times like these, working io a store or an office, or tt ■; clerking behind a counter doesn't appeal to me, because girls, women U 3 and older men can do these things, but they are not physically fit to £ 3 do hard work on a farm like I am. So I want to train this spring so j? j I can play the game hard on a farm next summer. Then I’ll come g J home in the fall with real money in my pocket; I will be stronger 8 j physically, for my body will be charged with rich red blood born of H ; honest toil in the open air; my mind will be clear and I'll be more R * mentally alert than ever in my studies; and best of all, I'll be happy y • and so will you, in the consciousness that I have contributed to the M S best of my ability toward helping Uncle Sam play the game to win g i this great war, for the greatest cause ever championed by a nation!" 8 Signed, St YOUR ADAMS COUNTY BOY. «

Dear Sir: You are right when you say in yours of Dooembcr 24th tnat Senreoo is a remarkably good tooth paste and that it has a strong story to tell, but tho difficulty lies in putting that story in such language as will cdr.vince the public. The Senreoo story of a medioinal paste that not only cleanses the teeth but also keeps mouth and gums healthy, when put on paper does not sound very different from the story of just any ordinary dentifrice. For that reason we make every effort to get th» people to try Senraco. After that Senreoo tells ,t? own story - end fully 90% of them ere Senreoo usera> and boosters from then on. There is a Senreoo user in Pittsburgh who has introduced our product into the families of thirty-four of his friends. Enthusiasm? no, not entirely. Simply a case of Scnreco making good. It Is just as stated above. If they will try Senreoo - If they once become acquainted with a real dentifrice - with what a dentifrice can and should be - they are Scnreco boosters from that time on. Your druggist or toilet counters can supply you with Senreoo. It comes in large, two ounce tubes ad retails at 25/. Why not get a tube to-day? Try It. We stand behind every package of Senreoo with a money-back guarantee. Very truly yours. SENREOO, ' CINCINNATI.
