HONOR ROLL At a recent assembly held at Cen tral plans for bringing the school service flag and honor roll up-to date were discussed. Last year, un der the supervision of Professor Dibble, the honor roll contained the names of all Central men who had joined the service up to that time, and the service flag contained 135 stars. However, since that time, many more Central boys have joined the service, but they have never been given a place on the honor roll or j service flag. This matter is now in the hands of the Argus. The editor of the Argus as ap pointed a committee of thirty stu dentsl to help him in his task of ■securing these names. He alsoj pointed out that the students should not have to be urged to hand in names of those in the service, but that they should consider it a per sonal duty and privilege to do so, as this is little enough honor for those who have fought and won. Despite the co-operation of the student body, however, it will be im possible to secure all the ames of those in the service or who have been in the service, unless the pub lic also helps, as many of these names are unknown to the students. Therefore all the people of the city are, urged to send the names of any .Central men that they know are, or have been, in the service to the edl-i tor of the Argus. The following in formation is desired: Name, branch of service, rank and whether wounded, killed, or any other infor mation that may be suitable for records. The following students have been appointed on this committee: Morn ing session—Helen Gable, Helen Croeier, Mary Fager, Jennie Booth. Aary Long. Gladys Robinson, Julia Hinkle, Christine Long, Merle Smith. Rachaei Longsdorf, Mar garet Geiger. Margaret Herm, Helen Burrls and Mildred Shupp. After noon session—Rebecca Shelly, Ethel Burd, Ruth TTrich, Marie Wolfarth, Mary Hoff. Winifred Reel, Florence Buitnett, Dorothy Rankin.

Thieves Get sl2 From Residence of Postmaster; State Police Called In Lemoyne, Pa., Feb. 15.—Thieves entered the residence of Oscar Wolfensberger, postmaster of Le moyne, and, after ransacking the residence, escaped with sl2 in cash. It is believed the thieves thought a considerable amount of the postal receipts was at the residence at that time. None of the family was at the residence at the time, Mr. Wolfens berger bekig out of town and his wife and daughter being at the post office. When they returned home they found one of the latches on. It is believed that the thief was in the house at that time, but that he es caped when he heard them return ing home about 7.30 o'clock. He had entered the house by prying one of the windows with a jimmy. State police were called and took up the case at 10 o'clock, but they have not made any arrests yet.

PLAIN HAUSFRAU IS FIRST LADY [Continued from First Page.] the caste in which we have been reared, but that will never occur. Whatever may come we are going to remain true to our traditions as a plain workingman's family." The eldest son of the family. Friedrich Ebert, Jr., has taken up newspaper work. The second son, a youth of 20, was only recently dis charged from the army. The only daughter, Amalie, 19 years old, un til recently was employed as a clerk by a downtown firm. President Ebert. lost a son in the fighting in Macedonia and another in the Chemin des Dames operations. The family up to two weeks ago had been living in a suburb of Ber lin, but now is installed in official apartments of the Department of the Interior in the Wilhelmstrasse which formerly were occupied by high offi cials. The permanent official resi dence of the new president has not been determined upon, and President Ebert has expressed aversion to the .Bellevue Palace as such residence on the ground that'it is "too impos ing." Just how the newly-electeif presi dent and the first lady of the land will approach the solution of the various complex questions facing them in their new status has not yet been devolped. The question of official receptions is already worry ing certain circles in the capital, who contemplate with some concern the shift from the splendor of the Hohenzollern levees to the threat ened Jeffersonian simplicity of the new regime.
