As the weeks roll by, we see
names of friends and relatives
who have gone to France to give
their lives if necessary to stay the
mad Kaiser in his satanic efforts
to enslave mankind for personal
gratification. No sane person
doubts what the result will be if
he can break through the barriers
that now hold him from our
shores. Every man now at the
front is fighting our battles.
Give at least one dollar to help
save the lives of the wounded.
CLarch Notices.
Preaching service on next Sab
bath in the United Presbyterian
church in town at 10:30 a. m.,
and in the 2nd United Presbyter
ian church of the Cove at 7:30 p.
lis., by Rev. A. J. Crooks.

When Captain Drake "brought
in" the first oil well in Pennsyl
vania sixty years ago he Httle
thought that he had accomplished
a feat of far greater importance
than the discovery of a new Em
pire. Today oil is a3 necessary as
bread or clothing, for without oil
the wheels of industry would al
most be stopped.
School to Close.
The McConcellsburg summer
normal school will close to-morrow.
Fifty:seven Btudents en
rolled for the present term. Ow
ing to the closing of the schools
all over the state last fall by
reason of orders from State
board of health, the" opening of
the summer session was delayed
and the term extended into July.
Save Big Heads.
In almost every field of wheat
heads may be-found that appear
to be of superior quality. It
costs nothing to save these heads
to plant in a separate place next
year in order to test them. In
case a new and improved variety
should be the result of the ex
periment a snug fortune might
be made out of it.
Moral Courage.
"Moral courage is more worth
having than physical courage, not
because it is a higher virtue, but
because the demand for it is more
constant. Physical courage is
most of the time in the lumber
room. Moral courage is needed
day by day." George Buxton.
Mrs. Wm. Baumgardner and
daughter Miss Mary entertained
at luncheon on Tuesday.
Troops to S'ove.
To-day is the day to move the
main body of American troops
now in France to their permanent
camp behind the western battle
front where they will be drilled
and friven opportunity to become
fami;iar with actual warfare as
it is carried on there. They will
hear the big guns and see some !
of the effects of shell fire before I
Pntfrmcr intn mnra anvavA Rutins '
in the trenches. The report
says the boys are enthused over
the idea of getting close to the
German fire.
Incidentally, our boys over
there have adopted the slogan
"Can the Kaiser!" English and
French soldiers set m amazed at
the readiness with which our boys
coin catchy slang phrases, and
English newspapers have gone
to great trouble to interpret some
of them. They have translated
"can the Kaiser" to signify that
the Allied force should "her
metically seal the Kaiser in some
restraining receptacle in order,
that he will forever be harm- j
less." Only three words are
necessary to express the idea by
our boys.

consistency of oiy Government
in urging th "vomen of our Na

of food stuffs in blowing of beer.
