TWO HUNDRED BOYS GET TRAINING GIVEN BY MUNCIE Y. M. C. A. North Welmter, July 13—The boy ol today [st the athlete of tomorrow. The 1 training ho received morally, mentally ynd physically will make him the real man in the future. On tho east shower of Tippecanoe lake In Kosiusko county, there is a boys camp where about two hundred Imys receive tho training that will .make them good men. This camp is (known as Camp Crosby and it is under tile nitspices Ol <he Muncie Y. M. I '. A. Tile public spirited men of Muncie however have not limited the enrollent of boys tn tho camp Just to 'Delaware county boys, but boys in every part of the state can go to tile ' camp. | It's the eighth year of camp Crosby, a big athletic field, tennis court, jumping pits and standards, running (nicks, basebal diamonds and volley ball courts, form an important part of the camp. It is here the boys are taught not only to play these games and reap the physical benefit from them, but they are taught true clean sportsmanship. Not only do the boys also have a wonderful chance to learn to swim but if all ready swimmers, it improve themselves in tile aquatic art. Water sports at Camp Crosby are safe. The shallow water with sandy bottom afford a wonderful place for tho beginner. The boys are constantly under tlie watchful eye of expert swimmers, when th —— ' • * 1 >-' water or in boats. The moral standards of Camp Crosby is very high. H. A. Pettijohn, a form er Wabash college man who is in charge of the boys department at the Muncie Y. M. C. A. is tile director of the camp. While he has perfect discipline still he does it in away that makes him tho idol of every boy in camp. Nights stunts aro held in tho big in dining room and the boys gather around the idg open lire place. [There is real talent shown by tlie.se Hoosier boys. Good singing, speaking land other stunts pass the evening i Boys between the ages of ten and nineteen gather each year at tho camp just a mile and a half from North Webster, and late in the summer return to their homes better morally, mentally and physically for tile training they have received. HOW AND WHERE BOOZE IS MADS Dallas. Texas, July 11?.—Do you like |bootleg booze? Read on: “Unspeakable unsanitary" conditions surround the manufacture of bootlog booze, a report of federal eni forcemeat officer shows. “Most of the Hooch is made from rotten grain, black-strap molasses, I shorts, chops, etc,’” the report states, "Vermin of ail kinds have been found ,in and around stills. “Old- ice cream cans, galvanized oil [cans, milk cans, tea kettles, coffee pots, wash boilers and oil barrels as cookers and tho inside of them are I unspeakably filthy, as there is no way i to cledn them. “The premises are usually unclean. | On one occasion more flies than could be put in a gallon bucket were found on a barrel of mash. All kinds of bugs gather over the stinking stuff and finally drown in tile ‘spirits.’”

SAYS SOVIET IS I COINInI. REAL MONEY London, July 13,—aiver coins to the amount 5,000,000 |ubh‘H have been ■ minted by tho Russian Government ’ In the Petrograd mint, according to I t lie Moscow correspondent of the Rigasche (Riga) Rundschau. Tlie minting was bflgun September 1, i last and the coins are of 10, 15, 20 and 1 25 kopeks and one ruble. They are' I 90 per cent silver and 10 per cent al-1 < loy. The currency Is no l to go Into cir . dilation, however, bu' h to form the I •’•lity for a new note issue, which s may eventually supersede the old one > The coins, according to the correl spondent, greatly resemble (lie old • Tsarist coins, except that they bear a Soviet inscrirpticn. . "Amazing as it may s'em,” the cor- , respondent writes, an improvement in r th'> currency condition; of Soviet Rus-j sia may be noted in tlie last month, f chiefly caused by the cessation of pa- ' par money issues. The measures tak i on by tlie Government with a view to, i stablizlng tho currency could almost i ba called brutal. Meanwhile the ruble's rate rises, i Food and commodities aro cheaper—bread black and white, by about 40 ■ per cent. Everywhere these is tho greatest money shortage. Wages can ■ no longer lie paid and many of the ■ chief industrial enterprises are unable to meet their financial undertakings,” The Moscow bourse during tho fol- . lowing tlie Genoa conference was the scene of a feverish activitity, he states. Debentures and shares recently without any real value suddenly i attained surprisingly heights. Tiie Rus- ‘ sian Rente (1000 roubles) is now quoting at 90 million roubles. Naptha and railway shares aro also in great demand. Tlie State Bank also is buying for eign currency but does little business : as the rates in tlie free market aro i < onsiderably higher.

SHELL. SHOCK SOLDIER FOUND WANDERING IN HUNTINGTON COUNT'. Bluffton. July 13. Apparently suf ferine from loss of memory which wa attributed to shell shock, a man who gave his name as William Timber was found Tuesday afternoon aimlessly wandering about near Plum Tree, and the Huntington County sheriff took him in charge. His clothes were tattered and torn, long slashes in the trousers revealin: a hardened skin beneath, while his < yes peered steadily from behind an unkempt, unshaven face that was topped with long, unbrushed hair and a much battered felt hat. “How far from Lake Michigan?” he asked, and "what place is this?” Other than that, no information could be obtained from him, but hi frequent use of French in his speech and some talk about Quebec leads to the supposition that he may be a Can adian soldier.
