NEGRO EMPLOYE
CRUSHED BY A CAR
WILLIAM JACKSON WAS GATH-
ERING COAL WHEN LOCO-
MOTIVE COUPLED WITH
CAR—BODY NEARLY
CUT IN TWO
Unaware of the approach of a lo-
comotive for the coupling of a
series of coal cars, under which he
was gathering coal, William Jackson,
colored, an employe at the J. E.
Baker Company quarries, at Bill-
myer, was crushed to death beneath
the wheels of one of the cars, on
Tuesday afternoon, at the quarries.
The coal cars were located on a
siding, and as was his duty, he was
gathering coal from beneath the car.
At about 4:30 o'clock, a locomotive
shunted onto the siding for the pur-
pose of coupling the cars. Jackson
was not warned of the approach of
the locomotive, and with the impact
of the engine and the cars, Jackson
was struck and thrown across the
rails, the wheels of the car passing
over his body, and dragging him for
a distance of sixty feet. His half-
mangled body was then discovered,
and released by several fellow work-
men.
Dr. Stever, of Bainbridge, was
summoned, and it was found that his
leg had been completely severed and
the stomach badly crushed, almost
cutting his body in two. A coroner’s
investigation was held at the under-
taking parlors of H. J. Hawthorne, at
Bainbridge, and it was decided that
it was accidental death.
Jackson was aged about twenty-
nine years. His body was interred in
Potter’s Field burial grounds at Bain-
bridge from the undertaking es-
tablishment of Mr. Hawthorne.

LETTER FROM A
MT. JOY SOLDIER
MR. FRANK FUNK, IN THE SER-
VICE OF UNCLE SAM, IS
NOW STATIONED AT
FORT THOMAS, KY.
|
|
{
|
We are in receipt of the followin
very interesting letter from J. Fran
Funk, a son of Mr. Samuel Funk on
North Barbara street:
Fort Thomas, Ky., Jan. 29, 1918.
My. J. E. Schroll,
Dear Sir—Just these few lines to
remind the Mount Joy people that I
am still alive, well and happy. I am
now stationed at Fort Thomas, Ken-
tuckey, but expect to change places
in the near future.
Before I left home to work for
boys wrote home to a friend of his
and told him that he was a K. P. and
never explained what that was. So
for the benefit of the people in the
old home town, I will try to explain.
The duty of the K. P., which is
Kitchen Police, is do all the work
around the kitchen that the cooks
don’t like to do; such as wash dishes,
pots, pans, kettles, wait on tables in
the special mess halls, keep up the
fires, carry in coal and kindling wood,
mop up the floors and a lot of other
odd and end jobs. Take this for
granted because I know, having been
one of those Knights of the Kitchen,
as the boys call them when they see
them dressed in their grand army
suits which are overalls and jumpers.
We are called at 5:55 A. M. but
not by a mother who would call her
son about a dozen times before he
gets up but by something altogether
different. If a person don’t get up
on the jump, he gets more than a
light talking too. From that time
until 4:30 P. M. we have our duties
to perform for our Uncle Sam. But
after that time we are left to our-
selves until 10:45 P. M., unless we
have a pass from the Company Com-
mander. If we don’t have a pass and
are not in our bunk at the given
time, we are sent to the guard house
which sure is no joke. There they
are put to work and have a gun
leveled at them all the time.
We have a Y. M. C. A. and a K.
O. F. C. hall here and they sure are
doing the boys a good turn; they
furnish paper, envelopes, pens and
ink free for the boys in uniform. It
don’t get very cold here nor snow
very much. Mercury only gets as
low as 20 degrees below zero and we
have snow about four times a week.
Now that is not half bad if you don’t
care what you say, but having one of
Uncle Sam’s uniforms and overcoats
on you don’t mind it very much.
We just returned from a 14 mile
hike which some of the boys could
not stand and fell out before we
hiked 6 miles. I told my pal that I
would stick to it if they had to carry
me back to the Fort on a board, but
it was not necessary. Well, as it is
almost time for mess, I will close.
I remain as ever,
J. Frank Funk.
Royally Entertained
The Ladies’ Bible Class of the U.
E. Church held their monthly meet-
ing on Thursday evening at the home

Street. A good attendance was
present and some business was at-

sion the Class was royally enter-
tained by Mrs. Myers. Games were

Sweigert, president; :Mrs. Dowhower,
treasurer; Sara Kramer, secretary;
Mrs. Joseph Weber, Mrs. Charles
Morton, Mrs. John Way, Mrs. Harry

MARIETTA ASSOCIATION
ELECTS ITS OFFICERS
At the annual election of directors
and officers of the Home Building
and Loan Association of Marietta on
Saturday evening the following di-
rectors were elected for the ensuing
year: John A. Shillow, James Duffy,
Charles J. O’Connor, John P. Orth,
John F. O’Brien, A. . Libhart,
George P. Resch, John P. Mueller,
George G. Lindsay. The officers are:
John A. Shillow, przsident; James
Duffy, vice president; A. L. Resch,
secretary; Henry S. Rich, treasurer;
Bernard J. Myers, Lancaster, so-
licitor; auditors, B. G. Hipple, John
Shillow, Jr., Chester W. Rudisill.
Why Not on Monday?
The Conestoga Traction Company
has been asked to remove the sur-
plus snow on all streets in town on
which there are car tracks as it is al-
most impossible to pass a car at many
places on account of the depth of the
snow. The traction company says it
will pay for the work if we get the
men and we would suggest giving
our idle factory employes work and
cleaning all that snow away on Mon-
day. That would require no fuel to
do this work, which is permissible
under the new order and it would
certainly be a help to the unemployed
that day.

The experience of almost every
Nation has been that the greatest
enthusiasm for fighting and willing-
ness for military service were found
in men under twenty-five years of

than two and one-half millions of
men who served in the Union Armies,
more than two millions were under
twenty-one years of age, and less
than a hundred thousand over
twenty-five. The vast majority en-
