DIDN'T GET ANY WAGES.

Howard McCollum and J. E. W i - nans, two of the patients at the Wah- 'jamega Farm for Epileptics, skipped 'out Sunday and the officers had some l i t t le difficulty in locating them. Mon- day afternoon they were found by "Deputy Sheriff Humes at Otter Lake, who took them from a box car in which they were riding. They t~old the officer that they left the Wahjame- ga farm because they didn't get any wages there.

They were re turned to the Epilep- tic farm and will h a v e to s t ruggle along without wages, even though i t seems a hard proposition to them. - ~ Vassar Pioneer.

HAND TAKEN OFF.

Edwin Winkler, son of Lawrence Winkler of Tuscola township, was the victim of a shocking accident last week. The young man was th resh ing a~ the farm of his uncle and in put- t ing on the separator belt his lef t hand became fastened in some manner and thai~ member was taken off at the wrist.

Mr. Winkler was a m o n g ' t h e first quota of young men to be called from Tuscola cour~ty to serve in the army and he was wait ing for the call to go to the Battle Creek cantonment.

Except for Wind Storms and Other Disadvantages, Lyle Likes

Texas.

Lyle Koepfgen, enlisted and train- 'in~ with the 74th Aero Squadron, at Kelly Field, South Sanantonio, TeXas, writes the Chronicle the following let ter which will prove interes t ing to hi~ many friends in the Cass City community:

Dear Friend: Received the Chronicle you sent me, also your card asking m~ to tell you something about a rmy life here. Well, in the first place, I must say I enjoyed get t ing the paper. It seems mighty good to read the news from your home town, when you are so far away and it seems as if I were a long ways away down here.

It is just a month or a little better since I have been here. My first ira= press:on of Texas was not very en- couraging. I have sweated and steamed, and g'one with an empty stomach, but I am hardened now; can stand anything, the army puts over on me. This par t of Texas would be a fine farming country if it~would rain once in a while. We have had two rain storms since I have been here. They lasted about te~ mbmtes and then seemed to ge t discouraged and stopped.

We have some very strong wind storms here once in a while. Then you ought to see the soldiers run for their tents, and grab a corner or any part

One hundred bankers a t tended the meeting of Group 5, Michigan Bank- e!'~_~ association held a~ the !~resbyteri ~ an]church in Care yesterday. Nine cffunties were represented a t the meeting.

Glynn, cashier of the Second National bank, of Saginaw, and O. E. Sovereign of Bay C i t y .

Officers for the ensuing year were elected before adjournment, W. H. Mc- Comber, of Midland, being dhosen as chairman to succeed W. L. Clements of Bay City, and P. A. McCombs of Bay City being elected secretary and treasurer.

Those present from Cass City were I. B. Auten, Jos. Frutchey, G A. Tin- dale and Edw. Pinney.

THREE DETROIT BA Dg$ $ OOT UP LEXINGTO

Chase Through Streets of Port

Huron Ends in Woman's

Capture.

After shooting up Lexington, Sani- lac county, Fr iday afternoon, three De- troit automobile bandits and Miss Ruth Wintermuth, according to daily papers of the state, drove into Por t Huron, defied the police and led a spectacular chase through the streets.

Miss Wintermuth, 19 years old, abandoned in a stolen car, was jailed • at Ft. Huron, but her companions scattered and fled.

The three bandits, accompanied by i the girl, left Detroi t Thursday night, l according to the girl 's story, in a sto- 'len auto, for Lexington, where the girl 's parents reside. Af te r a short

of it they can get hold of and hang on to it, to keep it from going over. Some of the tents get away from them at that. We sit down on the ' ground to eat our meals and it g ~ s quite dusty some times. We did not have a commanding officer at first, SO naturally things did no~ work ver~ well. Have on e n o w and we are be ing organized, so things will work bet- tea-. w e have received our :entire equipment. We ge t up here in the morning at 5:30; 10 minutes to dress and get out; then w e have reveile, one drilI and then breakfast; then we drill again, w e have ~the infantry formation to enable us to march in a mil i tary manner. The last one is more of a school of signaling and aeronautics.

I find the aeronautics the most in- teresting~as we all will genoa chance to fly af ter we are completely organized. Some of these airplanes have a nasty habit of dropping to the ground without giving the pilot any notice whatever. Two of them fell the other morning; one man killed, the other one is dying in the hospital. If I drive one I hope they will either let me keep one foot on the ground, or pick out a soft place to land on.

There are no floors in our tents, so to keep our feet a t the extreme end of ou r legs, we dress in bed. You see this camp is full of ants and snakes. It is hothing unusual to find a snake coiled up in your shoe in the morning. As for the ants, they are all over. When mess call is blown, the ants are first to eat, even going so far as to press us out of line. We have stew gener- ally for breakfast, for dinner, and then they change around and give u~ ~ stew for supper. Had hash once, but it doesn't happen often.

We are six miles from Sanantonio, but do not get much chance to go there. I have seen towns tha t looked lots cleaner. There are lots of Mexi- cans in it. Any thing that has a roof on it is a store of some kind.

I would not be surprised if we were shipped out of here soon. Guess we will go as soon as we get our last in- occulation. It 's a great life. We line up for eats, line up for vaccinations, line up for a drink of water, in fact, we line up for everything. It doesn't make any difference how much of a hurry you are in, you must wait your turn. But take it all in all, as long as this war lasts, I am going to enjoy it and see it through.

Sincerely, LYLE A. KOEPFGEN.

P. S.---Ekcuse .writing, but have nothing to write on only a piece of a 'shingle across my lap. Would be pleased to hear from you any time.

BODY FOUND ON BED BY

SON LAT~ :WEDNESDAY

AFTERNOON.

Many Expressions Of Sorrow Are Hearcl over Death of Well-known

Respected Citizen.

1

This community never suffered a grea ter shock nor was more grieved over the de l ibera te destruction of life than when it heard of the death of Jo- seph H. Wood. late Wednesday afternoon.

When Ernest Wood left Burke's Drug Store where he is employed and arrived at his home on West Main street for his supper shortly af ter five o'clock Wednesday, he found all the doors locked except the one at the rear. On opening the bedroom door on the first floor, he found the shades drawn and his father dead on the bed, the body still being warm. A bullet hole was found above the ear, the revolver lying between the man's legs. On the dresser stood a cup with paris green dregs.

The township board acted as a coroner's jury, and after viewing the remains, and surroundings, rendered the decision that Mr. Wood came to his death at his own hands.

Outwardly optimistic and jolly with his acquaintances and friends, local citizens could hardly believe the report of Mr. Wood~s death when {t was first announced. He had been out r iding in his car in the morning and those who met him during the day found him in his usual good humor. I t seems "Joe" Wood hid his troubles and made the sun shine br ighter for his neighbors and fr iends while he lived.

No one can account for his action "Wednesday afternoon unless it was despondency and lonesomeness because of the death of his wife last No- vember and his affliction of deafness.

E~en in his thoughts of death, Mr. Wood made every preparation possible for the" conduct of hls funeral and closing up business ~/ffairs. Near his death . bed, he left several letters ad- dressed to relatives and friends. One contained his check to .cover the balance on his Red Cross pledge, while others contained sums for other pur- poses. One document is left to Attor- n e y J . C. Corkins to be read when all the family are assembled.

In Mr. Wood's note to 2k. J. Knapp, undertaker , he named several requests regarding funeral arrangements and burial which in many instances were to be Similar to those at the funeral of his wife. He requested the use of the auto hearse and wished A . E . Goodall to d~ive the automobile trans- port ing the following pall bearers: John Ki~pf, Elias McKim, Henry Wil- liams, Allen T. Hiser, J. L. Cathcart and Edwin Eno. The funeral he wished held in the, M. E. church, with Roy. Young, the pa s to r , officiating, and "Travel l ing Home" as the last hymn sung at the service.

Joseph H. Wood was born in 1860 in Ontario and on June 24, 1889; he was married. They settled in Marlette township where they resided for nine years. From thence they came to Elk- land township where they purchased a fa rm and resided there for 18 years until the death of Mrs. Wood on No- vember 23, 1916. Following the death of his companion, Mr. Wood moved to Cass City where he purchased a home.

Deceased is survived by four children, Ernes t and Miss Edna of Cass City and Herbert and Claud Wood of Detroit, and two sisters.

Joseph Wood never realized how well he stood in the opinion of his fr iends and acquaintances. On every hand, one hears words of praise regarding his good character and upright life and universall~ are heard expressions of sorrow because of the sad ending'.

Funeral services will be held as two o'clock Saturday afternoon at the M. E. f ihurch of which the deceased was a /member .

STORK WINS OUT.

The stork was a three to one win- ner over the man with the scythe in Tuscola county during the month of July, as there were 78 births and only 27 deaths. Four of these deaths were of infants under one year, and thir teen were of perso=.s 65 years old and over. Tuberculosis had no vic- t ims in the county, but cancer carried away two, and the same number of deaths was due 'to violence. There was one death f rom diphtheria and one from meningitis.

In C o l d C a s h E

= ~ ~ Make your hens proud of their poultry house. They can't say."Thank you," of course, but they'll

:~ .~ lay more eggs summer and winter. And that's what you are interested in most of all. Face the poultry house towards the south and be liberal

with the windows. Then you'll have a well-ventilated and sunny building which is the first requirement.

Avoid a damp location let the poultry house be "high and dry." If a sand or dirt floor is used, it should be changed fre- quently. Don't overlook a single detail.

Make a wise selection of material for your new building. ,We will help you if you give us the word. .

RED CROSS NOTES.

Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Donnelly showed their patr iot ism to the i r country by throwing open the i r charming coun- t ry hom~ for the benefit of the Red Cross Sewing Society. Mrs. W. O. Root and her excellent committee de- serve grea t credit. The net proceeds amounted to $28.06.

Wanted Every woman and gir l in Tuscola County and vicinity to kni t or sew for the boys called to the f ront Your son or b ro ther - -Some one's son or brother. Come to the Red Cross Sewing Rooms to w o r k or work will obe given you to do a t home.

A call for help has come from the ~, battle front in France .on behalt~ of American soldiers, the soldiers of their allies, and of the desti tute civil- ians of devastated Belgium and Nor- thorn France. Six million warm, kit- ted woolen articles are needed to help them get through the winter . The ap- peal has come to the American Red Cross a t Washington, and i t specifies 1,500,09 each of sweaters, mufflers, wrist lets and socks.

The call was official. M a j o r Grayson M. P. Murphy of General Persh ing ' s staff, the Red Cross Commissioner for Europe, who knows bet ter perhaps than any other man jus t how badly these things are needed, has cabled for them. Here is par t of his message:

"Las t winter broke the record for cold and misery among the people here. We inexpressibly "dread the coming" winter finding us without sup- ~alies to meet the situation. We urge you, on behalf of our soldiers and those of our allies, wim will ouffer in their frozen trenches, and also thous- ands of French and Belgian refugees, to begin shipping at once 1,590,000 each of the warm, knit ted, woolen articles named. They mus t come before

cold weather." The entire people of the land are

called up(/n to render this service to the men in khaki, and those s t ruggl ing with them. The hear ts of the people will be in the task because their own are among those who need t h e service. Every county, every village, ev- exy voting precinct, is sending of i ts bes t to fight for the country, and the woman who knits one of these gar- ments feels, with e v e r y sti£ch, tha t i t m a y be her own son, her own brother, , ) r ° o n e o f h e r d e a r e s t f r i e n d ~ w h o m 2 y

be kept more comfortable b y her work. From Director John J. O'Connor of

the Central Division of the Red Crogs, with headquarters a t Chicago, the calI went for th to 1,081 chapters in the Central States, u rg ing the members to answer the cry. The chapters called on the Red Cross Supply Service, for yarn, kni t t ing needles, and full instruc- t ions for the knit t ing. In the mean- time, kni t t ing committees were formed in the chapters, and volunteers called for.

Ladies interested in this work should watch for knitting instructions which will be published in a la ter issue.

STOP HABIT OF CALLING FOR- MAIL

Here's a~ suggestion. Nobody in connection with the Case City postof- rice has suggested its publication; i t is merely brought about from the personal observation of the wr i ter :

School has commenced. Hundreds o ~ children pass the postoffice four times each day. Is i t necessary t ha t all of them ~ o p each of the four t i m e s and innuire for the fami ly mai l?

r igh t now and tell Mary t h a t she is "to call f o r the mail once (or twice) daily for this week then n e x t week Johnnie calls for the mail and Mary lays off on t h a t job. The kids like to do it, so there will be z~o objection if you pass the th ing around. Then you will know jus t who is responsible for the delivery of your mail each week. And the postoffice clerks will be Spared a lot of premature g r ay hairs .
