War Text Book Is Planned For High Schools.

The members of the state council of defense, at the weekly meeting held in Indianapolis Thursday, discussed a plan which has been taken up by the state board of education of having a “war” text book studied by all of the pupils of the high schools in Indiana. The proposed book would contain articles on subjects perta : .ning to the war and the co-operation needed by the government from every man, woman and child in the state, to carry the struggle with Germany to a successful conclusion. The purpose of the book, ultimately, is to bring to practically every home in the state, through the schools, a broader realization of the purposes of the war and the sacrifices which must be exacted from the people of the nation. The plan was presented to the council by Horace Ellis, state superintendent of public instruction. He asked that the state council endorse the plan, which calls for printing of about 100,000 copies of the volume at an expenditure of about $25,000.

Sensation Due in Lake AS a Result of Grand Jury Probe.

Prominent Lake county men, including several leading politicians, are said to be quaking in their shoes, as a result of a grand jury probe recently. More than 160 indictments, most of which are for violations of the laws against vice, were returned by the jury, and many prominent men are named. Arrests that will follow are expected to cause a sensation. Gambling, operating houses of ill fame, slot machines and other offensive practices form the basis for the indictments.

38 H. S. StudentS Pledge Selves To Earn $10 For Y. M. C. A.

Rev. E. W. Strecker addressed the students of the public schools Friday morning for the purpose of getting them to aid in the work of raising money to go to the Army and Navy Y. M. C. A. fund, and met with a ready response. Jasper county has been asked to subscribe $7,000 toward the fund. Thirty-eight boys in the high school pledged themselves to earn $lO each for the fund, paid by April Ist. Rev. Strecker was very well pleased with the response and feels that the students will do their share in helping to provide for the men in the service. The pledges which the boys sign must be countersigned by their parents, or they will become void. Rev. Strecker in his statements to the boys made it emphatic that they are not to secure the money from their parents, but are to earn it themselves. Money which is not earned will not be accepted, as it is believed the boys will take more interest in the campaign, if called upon to make some sacrifice. It is expected that many more boys will sign the pledge i nthe near future. The younger students in the grades will also lend their aid. The work in the high school will be under the direction of Prof. Kratli, Charles Halleck, Lawrence McLain, Walter Randle and Walter King. In the intermediate grades Prof. Dimmitt and Willis Wright will take charge. ! r

Certain Cure For Croup. Mrs. Rose Middleton, of Greenville, Hl., has had experience in the treatment of this disease. She says, “When my children were small my son had croup frequently. Chamberlain’s Cpugh’ Remedy always broke up these attacks immediately, and I was never without it in the house. I have taken it myself for coughs and colds with good results.” C

It Isnt’s Your Town—lt’s You.

If you want to live in the kind of a town ~ Like the kind of a town you like, You needn’t slip your clothes in a grip And start on a long, long hike, You’ll only find what you left behind For there’s nothing that’s really new. It’s a knock at yourself when you knock your town— It isn’t your town—it’s you. Real towns are not made by men afraid Lest somebody else get ahead. When everybody works and nobody shirks— —— You can raise your town from the dead. And if while you make your personal stake Your neighbor can make one, too, Your town will be what you want to see. it isn’t your town —it’s YOU.

An Old Man’s Stomach. As we grow older and less active, less and less food is required to meet the demands of our bodies. If too much is habitually taken, the stomach will rebel. When a man reaches the advanced age of 85 or 90, you will find that he is a light eater. Be as careful as you will, however, you will occasionally eat more than you should and will feel the need of Chamberlain’s Tablets to correct the disorder. These tablets do not contain pepsin, but strengthen the stomach and enable it to perform its functions naturally. They also Cause a gentle movement of the bowels. C

Western Railroads Are Seeking a Raise.

Western railroads Friday re-enter-ed the 15 per cent rate increase case by arranging with the interstate commerce commission for a hearing December 17, on an application to be made then for a general increase of an unspecified amount. The action will be joined to the application of eastern roads for 15 per cent higher rates, now being heard by the commission, and it is believed the southern roads will not be long in asking to be included in the case. This would bring before the commission definitely the issue of allowing insurance to roads of the entire country to cover high labor, material and supply costs. In disposing of the railroads’ application for a 15 per cent raise last June, the interstate Commerce commission granted a few minor increases to the western carriers. They now have prepared to show that* their net earnings have dwindled, as compared with last year, and claim that to maintain efficient service required for the war and to make necessary improvements, part of the burden of heavier operating costs must be passed onto the shippers. t ,

Ohio Drys Discouraged As Wets Retain Lead.

While the three days’ see-saw of the wet and dry returns in the prohibition election in Ohio has been at a standstill for the past day, the issue was still in doubt Friday night, although the wets are leading by an indicated majority of 1,102. The first of the more' densely populated counties of the state reported officially Friday evening, when Hamilton county returns as officially announced showed a majority for the wets in that county of 56,981. This is more than 10,000 fewer than the majority returned two years ago in the pronibition race. When the last official returns were displayed Friday evening it was found that 78 counties had made their official reports. Ten counties have not made their official reports, but the indications are that the wets have won by a scant margin.

Hospital at Francesville Has Closed Down.

Francesville Tribune. Dr. F. L. Sharrer is now located at Banton Harbor, Mich., having opened an office there last week. ’ The doctor made the change from here because of the opportunity for more extended ability in his profession of surgery and because of the dearth of surgeons in that' city on account of the war. The Hope hospital which the doctor opened here several months ago, which has been well patronized, will be closed and future cases will be sent to Benton Harbor. Misses Ella and Emma Swing, the nurses, will have charge of many of the cases at Mercy hospital, where Dr. Sharrer will be the operating surgeon. Dr. Sharrer graduated from the University of Illinois in Chicago in 1906 and at onde became ah interne in the Toledo hospital, has taken several post-graduate courses, and has practised surgery during the past eleven years. As a surgeon he has had excellent success based upon the mortality rate of such cases, above the average of many with longer experience in the profession, and his locating at Benton Harbor gives him an unlimited field to realize that to which he has looked forward since graduating from the university a few years ago.

FOOTBALL.

The greatest crowd that ever witnessed a professional football game in the middle west is expected to view the Cornell-Hamburg-Hammond clash at Hammond Sunday. The Cor-nell-Hamburg team is one of the leading western elevens and have the championship of Chicago clinched. The game is billed as being for the middle western championship. The easy victory of Hammond last Sunday over Pine Village has given them a very high rating and they look to be the cream of the west. Hundreds of dollars have been wagered on the outcome of the battle. The game is expected to devolve into a kicking duel between “Rube” Johnson, former North End star, for the Cornells, and Paddy Driscoll, last year’s Northwestern U. star. —o —- Coach Meyers is leading the Rensselaer high school squad against Logansport at that place today. The Cass county team is not considered a very strong one and the locals are expecting to win by a snug count.
