KIRBY MYERS DRAWS SENTENCE AND FINE IN RANDOLPH COURT
HARRY KEYNSTON JONES.
Songs from the clangorous kitchen
of a summer resort at White Bear
Lake, near St Paul, Minn., puzzled American Legion service men all dur
ing season until they discovered one
Harry Keynston Jones, five-foot Cock
ney Tommy, the joyous cook. Then
they knew why the chef's refrains had sounded so familiar he acknowledged authorship of the war's favorite, "Rose of No Man"s Land.'" As a cook, first class, with a Winnipeg grenadier regiment, Jones wieded the private skilet of General Sir Julian Byng, bivouacked along the Somme.. While officiating for his line company, however, the cook became famous with his kitchen police, by amusing them with a penny whistle, bought for the express cheer of the
overworked culinary staff. Later when his fame as a cook had
spread and he was drafted for the officers' mess. Lieutenant Colonel McRae, who was yet to write "In Flanders Fields,'" heard the cook"s luted lays and the two became friends. Together they produced the words and music of the no man's land song. Jones was wounded at Cambrai and passed several months in a Canadian hospital. After his discharge he began a whistling and singing junketing tour of the states, plying his trade as cook, first class, to defray his expenses. Soon after he was "discovered" at St. Paul, he departed to see more of America before the summer was over.
BRITISH ELECT WOMAN. LONDON, Sept. 24.

She will be the second woman to take a seat in the commons, Lady Astor having been the first.
GERMAN EMIGRATION
FLOOD IS EXPECTED UNLESS LIMIT SET By Associated Press) WASHINGTON, Sept. 24. Unless the German government discourages emigration, a flood of Germans may follow the re-establishment of American consular offices in that country in
the opinion of officials of the depart
ment of labor.
While the percentage immigration law permits more than 13,000 Germans
to enter this country in one month, practically none have come here in lecent months, notwithstanding that
the American commissioner at Berlin
has the power to vise passports. ' With the setting up of consular of
fices at the various ports, however, it will be much easier for vises to, obtained provided the German government is willing to issue passports. Department of Labor officials are inclined to the view that emigration from Germany will be limited by German law. Italy already ha3 taken a hand in reducing ' emigration the monthly quotas falling well below the maximum which can be admitted under the law,
In Jupe, the first month the law was in operation the quota for the month
was exceeded but restriction of passrorts since then has reduced Italian emigration about 50 per cent.
Called by Death
EATON, O.. Sept. 24. Funeral serv
ices for Richard Armstrong, seven
months old, who died Friday morning at the home of his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Glen Armstrong, South Barron street, will be conducted Sunday afternoon at 2 o'clock in the Presbyterian church by Rev. C. F. Irwin, pastor. Burial will be in Mound Hill cemetery. -
The Home Garden
As soon as freezing weather begins the strawberry bed should be mulched. Litter of any kind, free from weed seed, will serve as a mulch. Stable manure is not desirable because of weed seeds which it usually contains.
The covering should be three or four inches thick when first placed over
the bed. It should be left on the bed in the spring, removing only enough from the rows to allow the plants to get through. Do not attempt cultivation until after the fruiting season is over. Pull any weeds that appear, but do not disturb the mulch away from the plants. Leaves or straw are used many times, but it is better to combine them. Mulching not only protects the plants from freezing, but prevents thawing rapidly and thus pulling the plants out of the ground. Deep freezing sometimes injures strawberry plants, as they are shallow rooted. The mulch will keep the soil moist and keep- the berries clean.

ENTERTAIN VISITORS, IS PROJECT PROPOSED
Through the suggestion of Dr. W. L. Misener, the board of trustees of Reid Memorial Church are to formulate plans for the entertainment of strangers who happen in the city for a period of time and to help them in every trouble which they may have. This project was originated by Dr. Misener and he is co-operating with the board of the church to advance his
efforts in locating such a system. At a recent meeting, a committee was appointed which composes Mrs. Richard Sedgwick, Mrs. Clara King, Mrs. Wilson McGaw, Mr. George Gault, and Brandon Griffis. The purpose of such an organiza
tion, according to statements made by
Dr. Misener, is not to advance the
Reid Memorial church in particular, but to create an organization which will serve to assist the strangers who come to Richmond, especially, to serve to direct them to a church on Sunday and render all information necessary to all strangers. It has been proposed to hold these meetings in the basement ot Reid Memorial Church, which seats practically 500 people. The first meeting which will be open to the strangers in the city will be held on Tuesday
night, Oct. 11. The meetings probably will be held as often as once a week.
