SOCIAL SERVICE BUREAU TO MEET

Communications from other affiliated organizations with other important business matters relative to the work of the Social Service Bureau for the winter will be considered Monday afternoon at 4:30 o'clock when a meeting will be held in the Commercial club rooms. WAMPUS AT LARGE Report has been made to the Wayne County Fish and Game association that a wampus has ; been seen in the country south of Richmond. This ' information, reported by Joe Hail, Lawrence Handley, Demas Coe and Elmer Eggemeyer, has greatly in terested Richmond sportsmen, for the j wampus 13 a very rare animai. Hill, Hndley, Eggemeyer and Coe formed an automobile party last Thursday nigut and while on the Liberty pike the car driven by Hill almost ran over the wampus. Hill was the only man in the party who had ever seen one of these animals before and he brought the machine lo such a violent stop ihat the other three occupants of the car were almost thrown out. "Look, look," cried Hill. "What do you see?" Eggemeyer inquired in a hoarse whisper. Coe and Handley were unable to talk. "Look, look a wampus," again shouted Hill. "What is a wampus?" inquired Eggemeyer, his voice trembling with excitement. "A black cat with a white tail. Gitup," said Hill. A deep silence brooded over the countryside as the automobile galloped on its way to Richmond, only brok en occasionally by a chuckle from Hill, who was so delighted over having seen a wampus that he could not restrain his laughter.

A dinner had been arranged In their honor by some; of the town's leading citizens and all of the players were in attendance. Ira was called upon for a speech and he arose to explain at some length the common sense and wisdom shown by the ball player who completely lays off the booze. And after it was all over it was brought to Ira's attention that the "wet" element of the town had been the player's hosts. SUNDAY SPECIAL NEW YORK DEL WON ICO Sanitary Ice Cream Co.

Toler writes the following of the Y. M. C. A. army camp: "The 'Y' is doing wonderful work in the army camps, by furnishing libraries, reading rooms, piano, phonograph, and entertainment. "The 'Y' is the nearest approach in camp to one's home. It affords a clean place to ?o to rest, amuse yourself, read, and listen to good lectures and music. "They have some form of entert? foment each night, and always bri?i5 the best entertainers of their kind. "If the people of the United States could see. and realize what the 'Y' means to the men in camp, they surely would give any money the "Y" might ask for," Toler has been in training fcr mote than four months.
