■ 1.1 lAIR SERVICE GOES TO AID OF SALVATION LASSIES AC) I- I ©BY U.£>:U Salvation Army lassies all over the United States are busy just^mow get ting ready for the nation-wide'Home .Service appeal for $10,000,000 the Army ;is to make from May 10 'to 20. Here are some of the popular blue-bonneted girls loading an airplane with printed matter so urgently needed that the usual method of shipment would have been too slow. The supplies which were In New York City had to be In Albany the. same afternoon. The United States Air Service stepped intQ the breach and got them there from the flying field on Long Island in a little over two hours. The obliging aviator is Ser geant J. Cole. The three lassies are all “war veterans.” Profitabie Investm ent. There was once a noble college man, says -Harvey’s Weekly, who was noted for the profusion with which he spent, wasted and lost baoney in everything; he did, and who kept oip the practice for some years in business, after he left his Alma Mater. He di.sap- peared for a few years, and when found again he was working on a farm. A friend asked how he was get ting on, and he replied with enthusi asm: “Splendidly! Top wave of pros perity I” “But, man, you don’t mean that you’re making money on this farm?” “Oh, no! I never expect to make any money. But I’m losing it slower than I ever did before!” I PUREBRED ■ i -{f A purebred animal is one of « ^ pure breeding representing a x ^ definite, recognized breed and ^ ^ both of whose parents -were pure- X ^ bred animals of the same breed, v ^ To be considered purebred, live ^ V stock must be either registered, v ^ eligible to registration, or (in * the absence of public registry for ^ ^ that class) * have such lineage^ • ^ that its pure breeding can be\ definitely proved.

It is a “gospel of clean milk”—and (lots of ih School children in Union iHillf N. J., which Is just across the ’Hudson River from New York, and I Covington, Ky., are already benefiting i from the modern gospel. ! Union Hill Salvationist* were the ’first to start the milk cnwade, and arc dispensed free each day. In this j town the ravages of infantile paralysis ; about two years ago were especially i severe, as is shown by the number of .crippled poor childfen who benefit from ‘ the Army's treatment In Covington the crusade is educa- ,tlonal well ar chatltnblt In nature, ■ and the lassies preach the clean miik gospel with all their %giU fesrer. Charitable and rfeUef^ork lor Amer- Satyationfst preaching the “gospel of clean milk\ in Covington, Ky. ica’s destitute and sick children has ^ -------- , — long constituted a big part of the Sal^ i there 60 quarts of the healthful fluidjvation Army’s activities. Through \ - - - - - - milk stations, fresh air farms, seashore homes, nurseries, orphanages, hospi tal* and with food, clothing, medicines and the like the Salvationist* aided al most half a million chUdren In thu United States last year. This child^ saving work Is one of the organizes tlon’s many Bon-iolf‘S«PP*^^®g activi'^ ties which Is financed by the once-a*> year Home Service Appeal. !Oil* year’^ appeal is scheduled for Mjsy 10 to 20. The most serious a f l p i l first fatal auto accident which-^as taken place in several months in the county of Otsego occurred about three o’clock (Standard time) yesterday afternoon at the .lower railroad crossing in Unadiila. The victims of the acci dent were Dr. and Mrs. Claude R. Wood's of Delhi, both of whom were drilled, the body of the former being crushed almost beyond recognition. A third member of the party. Miss Louise Sanford of Tenafly, N. J ., a teacher, who was a guest at the Woods home, was severely injured, her right thigh being fractured and her left leg broken above the ankle. She was^also severely shocked, and is Relieved to have sustained other in juries. She is now' at the Pox Memorial hospital .in this city, and, while her Condition is serious. Dr. Stearns of Unadiila, who accompa nied her to Oneonta on-Train No.309, states ^that she has apparently more than an even chance for recovery. It is understood that Dr. and Mrs. Woods and Miss Sanford *left Delhi early in the afternoon on a few hours pleasure and, business trip to--Sidney in the new Oakland 6 recently pur-* chased by the former. They wpre on their way home and at about three o’clock had reached the lower railroad crossing in Unadiila, and were head ing toward the village. At the crossing they were held up by a south-bound freight train and as soon as this had passed Dr. Woods appar ently put on power and drove upon the track, without noticing the af ternoon passenger train, north-bound from Binghamton, •’■which had been blanketed by the freight. The engine appears to have struck- the car squarely, and the impact was such that the auto was entirely demolished. Dr. Woods was thrown a distance of about 40-feet and was instantly killed, many bones in his body being broke. The two wopien were caught upon the pilot of the engine and car ried about two train -lengths before it could be brought to a standstill. Mrs. Wo^ds, it is understood, was still breathing when taken from the track but died after being placed in the train to be removed to Unadiila. Miss Sanford, partially unconscious, received immediate surgical assist ance from Dr, Stearns and* was brought on a stretcher with Train 309 to Oneonta. (Dr. George A. Sloan of Worcester, one of Otsego’-s coroners, was a pas senger on the train which struck the auto and took charge of removing the the bodies to Unadiila. He conducted an investigation of the accident at the time and it is not believed that he will decide that an inquest is nec essary. The bodies of Dr. and Mrs. •Woods were removed to the Joyce undertaking parlors at Unadiila and remained there over night. It is ex pected that they will be shipped on fo Delhi today. No arrangements have yet been made for the funeral services,—Oneonta* Star, Wednesday, July 7. mm m viginity news Items of Interest .Gleaned From Our ' Exchanges.

Pudney ’.—advertisement FUTURE AUTO MOTIVE POWER Interesting Speculation as to What Will Take the Place of Fast- Diminishing Gasoline. Gasoline will continue to go up in prietf. A few years from now we fuel for our automobiles. The ques tion is, what? T ^ government bureau of mines thinks that we shall get the requisite substitute from coal. In every city there -will be “bj’-product coke ovens,\ which will extract from the coal a light oil available for the purpose. The coke can then be used in our furnaces., anid for other ordinary fuel purposes. One ton of soft coal in the process of coking yields about three gallons of oil first rate for motor fuel. At present prices the heat in the oil has 20i times the commercial value of the same amount of heat in the form of Germany during part of the war was practically shut off from every supply of mineral oil. She depended for her motor fuel entirely on coal, putting the latter through by-product coking plants. Before long we shall be obliged to do the same thing in the UiQited States. Part of the light oil in cqal is toluol, i which in time of w^r is needed for the manufacture of TNT. Modern- warfare require^ enormous quantities of the substance for makiqg high-explosive shells. During the first, part -of the war the allies came near defeat for lack of it. . Another by-product from, the coking of one ton of soft coal Is 5,<X)0 cubic feet of gas, available for cooking and other household uses... The coke it self makes^ an admirable smokeless fuel for furnaces, If people could only be pdfsuaded to use it. ' GfeNEkAL HARDWARE 't-' I Miraculous Escape at Coventry.

Mrs. Barber, who is 65 years of age, es caped without a scratch. She cooly walked around to the other side of the wrecked auto and shot off the motor. The train was stopped as soon as possible and the trainmen were astonished to find no harm had come to the occupant of the car. Mrs. Barber suffered^ considerable from the shock but her friends are congrat ulating her on her fortunate escape. —Bainbridge Republican. Holdridge-Adams. The pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs. James H/ Adams was the scene of a very pretty wedding on Wednesday, June 30, 1920, when their daughter, Mildred May, was united in marriage to Harry L. Holdridge, at high noon. The ceremony was performed by Rev. E. Bohne-Echolt, pastor of the Met|^- odist Episcopal church, under an arch df locust and ferns, in the presence of the immediate families and friends. The house was very prettily decorated with ferns and peonies. The bride was attired in. blue silk and carried a bouquet of white roses. The Maid of Honor, Miss Mildred Smith, an intimate friend of Miss Adams, car ried a bouquet of red roses. The best man was Glenn VanDusen.
