Mrs. Charles Mann Is Chairman Of Large Red Cross Chapter.

Mrs. Charles Mann, formerly of this city and a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. A. McFarland, has been honored by being selected as chairman of a large Red Cross unit at Cincinnati, O. The Cincinnati chapter is one .of the largest in the United States and has done wonderfully well in providing for our soldier and sailor boys, in the way of clothes. The following account of the chapter is taken from Leslie’s Weekly: “Evanston, a suburb of Cincinnati, has the largest Red Cross unit in Cincinnati, and practically every member in the suburb is a member of it. The unit also has a great many sisters and sweethearts of soldiers in it. Sixteen different articles are manufactured in large quantities in this busy chapter. Some members have a record of five shirts in a single day. Others a pair of hand-made socks a day, and some adepts of the needls, a sweater in two days. The results of their work since last June in sweaters, socks, scarfs, helmets, and hospital shirts and bandages would fill two freight cars.” »

Young Couple Married at Parsonage Thursday Evening.

The marriage of John Israel Reed, son of Mrs. Charles Reed and Miss Flossie Blanche Randle, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Randle occurred at the Methodist parsonage Thursday evening, the marriage being performed by Rev. E. W. Strecker. Mr. and Mrs. Reed are among our well known young people and will make their home in this city. Mr. Reed is employed at the Columbia Furniture factory.

The other townships follow in the order named; Newton, $2.97; Gillam, $2.90; Wheatfield, tp., $2.88; Barkley, $2.82; Jordan, $2.74; Milroy, $2.71; Marion, $2.68; Hanging Grove, $2.60; Carpenter, $2.05.

Inefficiency can, oe as fatal as treachery or treason. If the boys in the trenches now fighting for us are made to make the supreme sacrifice, and that without accomplishing the right results,, it will matter but little to them whether the fault was from the lack of patriotism or of efficiency. When the'“government calls for three billions for bonds, it receives five billions. When the Red Cross calls for thirty five millions, the people give fifty three millions. Millions of select men and volunteers are ready to go into the war. Why wait until Germany has won? It makes one’s blood run cold to know what we SHOULD and what we HAVE done to help win this war.

Next Draw For Men to be Made February 15th

The remaining 35 per cent of the drafted men in the first call will not be sent to camp before February 15th, according to a telegram received by Governor Goodrich from the provost marshal-general Thursday morning. The telegram reads in part as follows; “It has been decided that there will be no more formal calls for deferred percentages of the present quota before February 15th. While boards should, until they have enough men finally classified in class 1, send forward men- selected under the old regulations, to make up deficiences in calls already made, the (result of this decision will be thAt we shall be able to give the benefit of the new classification system to all men whose order numbers are so late as to place them within deferred percentages of the present call. Calls, however, will be made very shortly under the provisions of Section 149 for the special class of men there mentioned.” Section 149 referred to covers the induction into service technical and other experts and of registrants highly skilled in some special line of work. Such men may be inducted into service at any time regardless of a deferred classification on the ground of engagement in industry or agriculture, and regardless of the order numbers heretofore assigned by lot.

Stomach Trouble and Constipation. Those who are afflicted with stomach trouble and constipation should read the following: “I have never found anything so good for stomach trouble and constipation as Chamberlain’s Tablets. 1 have used them off and on new for the past two years. They not jnly regulate the action of the bowels but stimu late the liver ‘and keep one’s bodj in a healthy condition,” writes Mrs Benjamin Hooper, Auburn, N 4 Y. (

WEATHER. Fair; continued cold tonight - Sunday partly cloudy and not quite so cold. ,

Brother Bab does not like the bill board in the court house yard. Who does? We sure do need more sense and service and less sentiment and Tom-foolery. What we need is effectiveness. We can all give our sons and our money and if proper use is not made of either, or both of them, the skillful German will beat us to death. Mike Duffy, of Oxford, was in Rensselaer today. Mr. Duffy is a hustling business man and a mighty fine fellow to meet. He is a Democrat, but is broad enough to see that there is a defference between loyalty to party and to country, and is ready to admit that even a Democratic administration may make a few errors. The government thermometer at St. Joseph College registered 8 below zero Friday night. There was a few inches of snow here, but further north it was much heavier. At Hammond, it seemed to be at least four feet in "depth. Monon trains are all late today. The train due here at 1:59 a. m., did not reach Rensselaer until about five o’clock this morning. All other trains, except the Milk train, are running from an hour to an hour and a half late. The wind last night made it seem to be the coldest night of the present severe winter.

The article in reference to the editor of this paper taking on the management of a picture show owned by Clark and Hamilton was inserted as a joke during the absence of Hamilton from the city. The show was secured by the effort of Manager Clark and he and a life long friend, B. S. Fendig, have wild dreams of future fame in the movie business, equalling that of Charlie Chaplin or John Bunny. Not only do they dream of becoming famous movies, but, strange to relate, they feel that they will be able to make the great movie trust divide with them their many millions. In the meantijne Editor Hamilton has a job as big as he is capable of managing in his duties .connected with the Republican,which he is anxious to make a paper of no mean type.
