Directs Making of U.

Small Arms

C'OU JOHN T. THOMPSON. Col. John Taliaferro Thompson, builder of the Remington and Kddystone arms plants, is now directing the manufacture of small arms, such as rifles and revolvers, for Uncle Sam.

The secret of Colonel Thompson's success in quantity production is the same as Henry Ford's—standardization. At the height of production of Knfleld rifles for the British army one man finally assembled 50 weapons in a day and the average man did 40. Now the average assembly is 200 per man per day. i

At one time the writer visited the Indiana home for aged and feeble Odd Fellows, their aged wives and orphans. This home is located at Greenburg, northeast of Indianapolis, near the state line of Ohio. At that time the home had not been completed very long, but now there are many new, commodious buildings a large farm for raising vegetables and other proucts of the soil, and a fine herd of dairy cows, which furnish staple milk and butter to the inmates. In this hom« old aqd feeble members of the order and their aged wives are permitted to live their last days together, same as In private life, while the orphans are properly taken care of. The home is furnished and maintained by contributions from the various lodges and Rebekah lodges of the state. Terre Haute lodges are well represented in doing

Both Terre Haute encamgmen^ No.

307, and Vigo encampment No. 17, *re passing throutrh a very prosperous term at the present time. Many new members are being added to each one, and the membership of both constantly increasing. When a brother has passed through the subordinate, he should not stop there, but should at once take the encampment degrees, as they are the highest degrees in the order, except the canton or patriarch militant degree. Both encampments here have good degree staffs and confer the work in a highly creditable manner. Brother .Tohn F. Straw is director of 307 and Brother J. C. Needham Is director of 17. These brothers are ably assisted bv a competent staff of workers, and to get the best of Odd Fellowship is to hare the encampment degTee.

STRIVE FOR QUOTA.

Vigo County to Make Effort In War Stamp Drive. Another effort is to be made during the first week of September to attain Vigo county's quota of "War Savings Stamp sales. Of the six counties in the Fifth Congressional district, Putnam has already gone over the top, Vermilion probably has sufficient pledges to make her quota and Park®' is very close to the goal. Hendricks county workers hav*e just held a meeting. attended by State Director J. T. Oliver, Vice Director Frank E. Hering and District Chairman James S Royse, and plans were formulated which will undoubtedly carry the county over in the very near future.

Clay county too. is getting ready for another determined effort to come up to government expectations. Vigo must, therefore, next week add very materially to her previous purchases and pledges, or be content not only to be outdone by the other counties of the district, but by nine-tenths of the counties of the state. Vigo is not going to be content to be at the tail end of anything in Indiana, and certainly not in matters of government sopport.

There is a million dollars yet to be raised before Vigo county can take the place she is rightfully entitled to. Next week we shall all be called on to increase our purchases of stamps. Think it over, be ready for the canvasser when he calls and help Vigo make good

By the saving of food, fuel and time. «You must learn to nse all the substitutes ordered by the g-overnment. Use les,s wheat, meat and sugar—and to effect a greater saving we must enlist our kitchens in the war work.

Fuel of every kind is so scarce and costly that it seems almost criminal when people use it wastefully—women are using- stoves—relics of the days when fuel was cheap and conservation was unnecessary. These conditions must change to meet ths pressing demands—in short, women must Help to Win the War. They must have Modern Equipment, which include stoves and other things in the line of up-to-date cooking and heating appliances. Think this over, Mrs. Housewife. Is your home equipped to help yotJ to do your part in Winning the War?
