FIRST TO NAME ITS SELECTION BOARD (Continued from Page One)

for every county in the state and for each city thart will have a separate board. As far as is known no other state in the union has yet taken this step nor has any state completed the boards that will have charge of the conscription of men of military age. These boards are composed of three men each. Governor Goodrich started out to make them non-partisan. He decided to appoint the sheriff and olerk of each county as two members of the board, and to select the third member

j from the opposite political party from j ?hat of the clerk and the sheriff. Thus. 1 ;n Republican counties a majority of j he members of the board will be Re

publicans, while in rei!i.n i t ir counties he majority of the ' members will be Democrats. This whs regarded a? the fairest method to follow in making the selections, because party politics can play no part in the serious business that confronts the nation in' the present war crisis. Partisan barrier have been swept aside, and in no state is this more evidently true than in Indiana. There will be a military census taken

, The Mongolia. The honor of winning the first sea battle in the war with Germany fell to this American steamer, whose fTjnners destroyed a submarine in two minutes near the coast of England. The naval gunners aboard the vessel made a clean hit at 1,000 yards, just a3 the U-boat was about to fire a torpedo.

Trns supper was given to the company raised by A. P. Twyman and funds were furnished by a number of the business men of tnts city. One hundred and twenty-five were served. At the conclusion of the feast, talks were made to the boys by J. S. Johnston, A. P. Twyman. R. F. Freeman. J. J. lreeen and others. In recognition of the service which Mr. Twyman has rendered, to the cause and as a token of loyalty on yie part of members of the company. John Dreesen. Jr., in behalf of the boys presented Mr. Twynn with a fine wrist watch. A gracious and appreciative response was made by the captain and the incident was long to be remembered .by those who witnessed It. The boy returned more thoroughly Imbued with the spirit of service than ever and more thoroughly aware of the'eeteem in which they are held because of their willingness to go forth and represent this community among the forces that are fighting to uphold our nation's honor and end the European war.

for ach rrecinct in the Ftate. Each man of military age in the precinct will lie required by the law, under heavy penalty for failure, to appear on a specified day and register. These registrations will be reported to the countyboard by the precinct man. It will then be up to the county board to select those who 'are eligible and fit for military service and to weed out those who are unfit, according to the law. If the plan of Governor Godrich works out as it should Indiana probably will be the firststate in the union to make a complete report of its conscription operations for the army.

SHORTAGE OF BREAD IN COUNTY TODAY

The stewed prunes, macaroni, rice and scrambled eggs on dinner tables in Lake county this evening greted a new recruit, Private Graham Cracker. yv. Graham tracker joined the colors in an emergency today to fill the gap in the lines caused by the temporary disability of Private Uajser's bread but with prospects of an increase in the price of bread after the settlement of the Chicago's strike which started yesterday, it is possible that Graham Cracker and his brother Soda. Oatmeal and their sister Cneeda will be permanently engaged in the war on the II. C. of U It appears that the good old Sunday dinner of chicken or roast with breaif, country butter and custard has gone by the board for the time being. Hammond's break supply today was 7.0t)0 loaves short by reason of the strike of Chicago bakers and with flour at 11 and no additional labor obtainable the big Hammond bakeries did not find it possible to make up the shortage. The 7,0"t loaves of Chicago bread which was not deliered this morning because the bakers in Chicago are on strike constitutes Quite a portion of Hammond's bread supply, sufficiently so that a reporter who canvassed by telephone this morning found a great many groceries wher they had no bread on hand. This was especially true of the stores that have not teen In the habit of buying Hammond made bread contrary to their own "Trade At Home Doctrine." The Hammond bakers got sweet revenge on them by not giving them supplies, sending the bread to other stores: Kast Chicago, "Whiting and Indiana Harbor were similarly affected. Dietrich's bakery in Hammond which normally bakes 4.500 loaves put out 6.000 last night and The Hammond Modern Bakery greatly increased its capacity. But owing to the strike these two concerns, and the other in the region, could not obtain the necessary additional labor and were, therefore unable to meet the shortage. "If the grocer keepers who bought Chicago bread had instead stuck by us thev wouldn't be stuck now." was th

w ay one fjf the proprietors of Diet rich's sized up the situation. If we make a great big additional supply and the Chicago trucks come out tomorrow with bread again I suppose we'll have to eat our own extra supply ourselxes." Housewives today were buying flour and baking their own bread.

WHEN YOU FEEL T!

M APPETITE, HEADACHE

(By YV. M. GRA.VTIEH. M. D ) If your wife tells you that you are "grouchy" and out-of-sorts, be thankful for the suggestion, and set to work to get your liver busy for it 1s more than likely that Its inactivity is at the bottom of your trouble. Don't blame your liver for not doing its work! Tou have undoubtedly been giving it' too much to do. You may have occasional headaches, feel tired, no appetite, and coated tongue, and this condition maylead up to other things. At such times you are the easiest prey for colds, grip, or the disease germs of malaria, typhoid, the deadly phthisis, or the many ills which carry oft so many of our citizens. My advice is. give up alcohol, tea and coffee. If you must drink something with your meals let it be a cup of hot water. Begin in the morning with a pint of hot water with a. half lemon squeezed in it, if possible, and drink It a half hour or less before breakfast. Take a few minutes of bending exercise and breathing in the morning. Walk in the outdoor air. Occasionally, say, once a week, take a good laxative, one that, is entirely vegetable. A food one is that made up of the extract of May-apple, Vegetable calomel, and Jalap, and can be bad at every drug store, for it has ben sold for nearly 50 years as Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Fellets. If you are occasionally troubled with rheumatic pains or lumbago, pain in the back, toes or muscles of the body, this is due to uric acid stored in the .system. The liver and kidneys do not ct properly. For such a person. I advise taking Anuric (double strength) three times daily for a week or two. Th'is Anuric throws out the uric acid which accumulates, and If taken occasionally will prevent or cure rheumatism and gout. There is no difficulty n obialBing Anuric at any drug atore. -Adv.
