"I trust every young man In the country of 16 years of age and over, not how permanently employed, and especially the boyB In our high schools, will respond to this new appeal as they so finely responded to that appeal made to them one year ago; that they will enter heartily Into the work of bringing relief to populations appallingly destitute; and that they will Join the U.

SUNDAY SCHOOL COUNCIL MEETS The County -Council of the Wayne County Sunday School Association met in the Friends church at Centerville Sunday afternoon, Dec. 5. to consider matters pertaining to the immediate and future welfare of the association and individual Sunday school work. The association president, E. P. Jones, of Milton, presided. The council recommends immediate consideration and planning by all township presidents for the townsliip conventions, it being urged that these be held Just as soon as possible. The need of special attention to and work for the returned members on each school's honor roll was presented. These boys coming from the camps where they have been under the uplifting influence of the Y. M. C. A. and kindred organizations should be made to feel the need of their presence and services in the Sunday school. Reports were heard from various county officers, the resignation of Miss Hill as Temperance superintendent was accepted and Fred Wallace of Whitewater elected to fill the unexpired term of Miss Hill. The new international standards of Sunday school work for schools, townships, counties and states of North America were then discussed and the various points explained. These standards are a revision and improvement on the former standards and will result in greater fairness to the small school. which will now be enabled to make as good a showing in points of merit as the larger schools. A revision of the state association's plan of financial support has also been made which is believed will result in the hearty endorsement and response, of all individual schools. The amount now expected from each school for the support of the state work is five cents per enrolled member, this being an increase of two cents over the former amount. Those schools which have already paid in their apportionment on the old basis will be asked to make up the two cents per member more and remit to the county treasurer at once. It was urged that those schools which have not yet sent in their annual contribution to the state work do bo very 'soon, not putting it off until convention time.

RED CROSS WORK BROKE MORALE OF HUNPEOPLE Was Patent Factor in Breaking Spirit of Germans Proved Lies of Leaders.

LONDON. Jan. 7. A few days ago I visited a German hospital prison camp in England.' writes Alice Leone Fleenor. formerly of San Francisco, In the American Red Cross Bulletin. "In one ward I found a Prussian officer who had been captured two days before on the Flanders front. "While the nurse was explaining his Injury to me I noticed that the German was glaring at the Red Cross on my shoulder strap. "As I was about to turn away the patient muttered: "I hate dot Red Cross; I hate it.' " 'Why should you hate the organization which saved your life?" I asked, for I was frankly puzzled by the Prussian officer's evident animosity. Officer Expresses Hatred. " 'Vy, vy, for dls reason," responded the Oberleutnant, raising himself higher, while his ye8 flashed. T hate dot Red Cross because it has broken the brave spirit of the German peoples. "For 15 minutes the officer continued to describe the offenses of the American Red Cross In Germany. "As I listened to him I began to realize that the American Red Cross had been one of the most potent factors In the breaking down of the morale of the military and civilian population of Germany. This work was accomplished by our Red Cross unconsciously. Yet It had been done, and done well. This Is what the German officer revealed to me: "Due to a carefully censored press and a lack of any direct outside communication the German people have been kept In complete Ignorance regarding the other countries of the world. Meantime a steady system of propaganda calculated to deceive has been operating. Civilians Are Deceived. "The civilians were told that their sufferings were nothing as compared to thoBe of the Allies, that America was not entering to any appreciable extent into the war. that the American Red Cross had practiced atrocities against the German prisoners "The people believed this propaganda. It had the desired effect for a time of making them endure any sacrifice. They might still believe much of it were it not for the fact that the American Red Cross has been quietly operatlngin the very midst of the Gercan civilians as a great existing proof of the falsity of the German propaganda. It has been the only visible symbol of the 'outside of Germany world,' but it has been a powerful one. "On the very day that a leading Hamburg paper published an article stating that America would never enter actively into the war a large group of American prisoners were quartered in a small town nearby. "Immediately there was erected an American Red Cross depot. Warm clothing, medicine, food and supplies of all kinds arrived in large quantities. The German townspeople came and inspected the depot and its great store of supplies. In the face of this concrete evidence It was not strange that they began to wonder whether America did lack supplies or. did intend only to act as a figurehead in the war." Greensfork, Ind. The Missionary meeting of the Christian church was held at the home of Mrs. Miles Bradbury. Nine members and two . guests were present.

Aid Rushed to Liberated Prisoners by British Military Mission

(By Associated Press) LONDON, Monday. Jan. 6. The administrative work done by the British military mission to British prisoners of war in Austria Is described by the Reuter Correspondent at Vienna. The mission's activities be ban at Triest, where medical assistance was rendered and rations were given to former British prisoners. Interned French and British civilians and a number of American officers, all of whom were fed, housed, provided with rations and sent away to their respective destination. The ,mission also fed six thousand former Italian prisoners In their concentration camp for six days, opened homes for the sick and destitute, distributed 100,000 British rations sent from Italy, established ten Austrian field kitchens at advanced points and made arrangements with the railway authorities for Improved transport for British and French refugees. The female staff of a captured Austrian hospital, after a night spent on a wet railway platform at Triest, applied to the British mission tor help. These women were fed. sheltered and sent to their destination by motor. At Vienna, in addition to relieving British prisoners and the civilians of the British colony who had suffered greatly from lack of food during the war, the mission fovlded for their transportation to their homes free of cost by special trains. The British motor lorries conveying food are surrounded each day by crowds of Viennese, who express envy of the British who are receiving such food for nothing. Prosperous persons, even princesses in Jewels and costly furs, come to the food depots and beg the Tommies to sell them food. Many seem unable to realize that such good things are being given away. The mission has performed all kinds of other duties. At Triest it did consular work. At Agram it suppressed an incipient revolution by the simple device of guiding the leaders of the conflicting parties into a cafe, where SCOUTS TO PLANT "ROOSEVELT TREE" (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, Jan. 7. In order to give permanent expression to "all Colonel Roosevelt stood for to the boys of the nation," sixteen thousand troops of the Boy Scouts of America, comprising 440,000 members, today were instructed to plant one of m-e trees with suitable inscription and ceremony in memory of the former president, the National council of the organization said in a telegram of condolence sent to Mrs. Roosevelt at Oyster Bay. Col. Roosevelt, the telegram continued, had aided materially in the development of the scouts and each of its members regarded him as their "hero." "In losing Colonel Roosevelt our boys and Indeed the whole world have, sustained a great loss," said the council's message. "But a spirit like his does not die and the national council of the boy scouts of America will endeavor in every way within its power to see that his memory is kept alive and his splendid qualities emphasized to serve to stimulate the boyhood of our country and the world to better citizenship."

- ) the situation was discussed and peacefully settled over coffee and cigarets. The mere appearance of the mission seems sufficient to quell disorders, though the members go about unarmed. Perhaps the most remarkable task the mission has been asked to perform was the transportation from Vienna to Belgrade of the Serbian or crown Jewels and foreign office archives, which were seized by the Austrians and had been kept in the Vienna war office. The Austrians voluntarily handed them over to a Serbian colonel, who requested the mission to assist him to take them tq Serbia. Captain Fitzwllliams accompanied by two military police, has already left with him for Belgrade.

WORLD ROTARIAIJ BODY PREDICTED BY HUFFMAN

Thethlngs the Rotary Club stands for; how they should effect communities; and the on-coming inter-national growth of the-Rotarlan organization, because of its ideals and practices, were discussed in a brief and concise way by John Huffman, one of the secretaries of the International Rotary Club, at the evening dinner of the club in the Arlington Monday night The regular meeting of the Rotary Club Tuesday noon was changed to Monday evening in order that the local Rotarians might have 'the opportunity of hearing Mr. Huffman. William S. Hadley, of Wichita, Kan-, a Rotarian and prominent citizen of Wichita, was a guest at the dinner and spoke a few minutes on Kansas as it used to be, and as it is today. The Rotarians present took special interest in Mr. Hadley's description of the commission form of government which is used in Wichita. "Petty troubles disappear when people know each other," said John Huffman in his talk, "and we have many instances which are prophetic of an international Rotary, because of the way international troubles have been brushed aside by whole-hearted talks of international representatives around the same table. It is our desire to have Rotary clubs in all parts cf the world and t! dream may not be far oft." "Getting the other fellows view point is one of the desires and privileges of the Rotarians," Huffman said. "At the beginning of the world war we found that America was not so completely amalgamated as we thought.' One of the things Rotarians are doing now is furthering -the teaching of English to resident but non-English speaking people. According to Mr. McAdoo's statement following the Fourth Liberty Loan, 'no agency responded better than the Rotary.' "Rotary stands for the dignity of work, and we are working toward a union between employe and employers in this country. Complete harmony can be obtained In America without the violence Russia and other countries have suffered." Switzerland is at present engaged in the electrification of a part of the railway connecting the country with Italy, through the St, Gothard tunnel. CATARRHAL DEAFNESS MAY BE OVERCOME If you have Catarrhal Deafness or are growing hard of hearing, or have head noises, go to your druggist and get 1 ounce of Parmint (double strength), and add to it pint of hot water and a little granulated sugar. Take 1 tablespoonful four times a day. This will often bring quick relief from the distressing, head noises. Clogged nostrils should open, breathing become easy and the mucus stop dropping into the throat. It is easy to prepare, costs little and is pleasant to take. Anyone losing hearing or who has Catarrhal Deafness or head noises should give this prescription a trial. BRIEFS NOTICE TO BIDDERS Proposals for supplies for the use of the Eastern Indiana Hospital for the Insane for the month of February will be received by the Board of Trustees at the hospital before 3 p. m. Monday, January 13, 1919. Specifications may be seen at the Second National Bank, or at the hospital. By order of the Board. S. E. SMITH, Med. Supt. Jan. 7-8.
