Through a litle misunderstanding of the solicitors of War Stamp sales during the last drive there is being much said as to how many stamps or bonds Jim A. Hendricks took or Signed up for. Solicitors were promised that he would take care of his full 2 per cent in the morning, this i being 10 o'clock at night. The next morning the settlements were made at the bank and his interest on bonds I already signed for was paid and then his cards were made out for his per (cent in Monroe town and at noon it j was aranged for at the Adams County bank for his stamps for Washington township. Mr. Bosse not being in when he came in. hence he did not get the notice and the boys reported me blank. This for my friends to see so they

can defend me as I am asked every •day somewhere: “Is that so about you not having any stamps or bonds?” I am only too glad to do all 1 can to help America win this war ! and there is hardly a day that I am : not doing something along this line. I am chairman of our Red Cross disi trict, and have a bunch of loyal sup- , porters, if there is a district in the • county that has one. I have been a ' contributor to all the war relief funds ever since the war began, and ( I am for all the boys in the camps and trenches. The matter of war stamps and bonds you take is a matter of busi--1 ness and profit. We can't loose anything. We get interest on both and we have mighty good backing behind them and no taxes. We should al) he liberal War Stamp and good bond buyers, in support of our government to whatever extent our circumstances will permit, but we should not ' overlook the Red Cross and Y. M. . C. A. which when given to these in- ' stitutions will be a direct gift and for the sake of humanity both for friend and foe. I expect to continue in this work as I am interested in all our boys In camp or trenches. ’ | As a public man in the county. I must expect criticism from a jeolous ’ standpoint. But if you don't want any criticism, just say nothing, do noth- ■ ing and be nothing. Your American friend, JIM A. HENDRICKS.

WAS FOUND DEAD (Contlnueo from Page One.' < ag<>. as well as the great medical and 'surgical institutions of Berlin an I I Vienna his trip abroad for this purpose having been made in 1908 anti his prijmary object having bcm to advance his skill in surgery, to which practice he had since given his especial attention. “The doctor was a man of extensive travels, and visited the Canadian provinces, the Bahamas, West Indiis. Cuba. Mexico, the northern portion cf South America, and the Hawaiian Islands. in 1912 he visited China and the Philippine islands, crossed Siberia and visited points of interest in continental Europe. “Dr. McOscar was a member of the American Medical association, the Congress of Clinical Surgeons of America. the Indiana State Medical society, and the Fort Wayne Medical society. He was a member also of the surgical staff retained by the. Grand Rapids and Indiana railroad, and a consulting surgeon of the Pennsylvania Railroad company. He was also local medical examiner for a number >t leading life insurance companies. “The doctor was a communicant of the Fort Wayne Cathedral parish of the Catholic church. He held ineniliership in the Fort Wayne Commercial club, and was affiliated with the Knights of Columbus, the Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks, and, other organizations." The deceased physician was very well known in this city and county having conducted many operations here, especially with the Drs. Clark with whom he was quite intimately associated. — o RESOLUTION OF RESPECT The board of commissioners of Ad ams county. Indiana, consisting of David J. Dilling and Robert Schwartz in special session assembled this 11th day of July, 1918, direct the following to be entered of record upon the Records of said hoard of commissioner. : “Emma Reppert. wife of our associate member, William Reppert, died on the evening of July 9th, 1918, after suffering for a period extending over six months. During this entire time Mr. Reppert tenderly, patiently and courageously watched and waited upon his wife, giving her every possible care and attention with the hope that she might recover. And throughout it all Mr. Reppert has been faithful in the discharge of his official duties. “Now as he humbly bows to th final decision of the All Wise and Just Judge, we, the associate of Mr. Ruppert .extend to him and to his children our sincere sympathy and condolence . in their bereavement." Made and entered of record this 11 day of July. 1918. DAVID J. DILLING. ROBERT SCHWARTZ. Board of Commissioners, o CARD OF THANKS We wish to express our heartfelt [ gratitude for the many acts of kindt: ness shows to us and to our beloved f( wife and mother during her sickness » and at her death. We have been very t deeply touchd by these tender acts of r kindness and by the sympathy extendj ed to us by our friends, neighbors and f relatives. The floral offerings were beautiful and were deeply appreciated. WM. REPPERT & CHILDREN. I TRACTORS ARE COMING The Kalver-Noble garage company - this morning received word from the Ford Automobile company that their shipment of Fordson tractors were on the way. The bill of lading accompanied the letter. As soon as the Fordsons arrive, a demonstration will be given on tbe farms and those interested are requested to watch the Daily Democrat for the official announcement.

—, NOTICE TO FARMERS. A wire from Washington forbids the feeding of rye and barley as most farmers are able to obtain either mill feed or corn. But if your grain is off grade and not flt for human food you may use it for stock food. Some confusion exists between farmers and grain dealers concerning the government regulations for handling the present wheat crop. Prices. The minimum price for No. 1 wheat 1 is fixe! by the U. S. grain corporation under authority given by act of con gress. This price, as fixed for this vicinity < at present is s2.Jfi, delivered in the elevator at Chicago. For No. 2 wheat a discount is fixed of 3c. For No. 3 wheat a discount of 7c from $1 is fixed. The prevailing opinion that a definite price has been fixed which grain , dealers shall pay and at which farmers must sell is wrong. No such authority as to fixing prices is given to anyone. S. E.
