one son.
Services Largely Attended.
The attendance at the open-air un-|
ion service on courthouse green was!
unusually largely attended Sunday

Dr. S. L. Allen has been appointed

Ice Cream Supper.
The News is requested to announce
mat there will be an ice cream supper
at Upper Camp Creek school house
Saturday night, the proceeds to go
for the benefit of the church.
Helping Crippled Soldiers.
One thing the Red Cross department
of civilian relief is doing these
days is to see that every crippled soldier
or sailor "gets back into the
game" just as close to his original
self as science can make him?that is
the idea of the government. The government
provides for the fitting, replacing
and keeping in repair of every
artificial limb or appliance required
by its crippled fighters, and the R*?d
("puts is helping to see that all who
.wed these things apply to Uncle Sam
for them. The excellence of these
artificial adjuncts to the human body

CONCRETE INSTANCE OK THE
PRESENT DAY WIHK SERVICE
Danville, Va., July 28.?Rev. J. E.
Hicks, I). D., pastor of the First Baptist
church, has just returned from .
Washington with a well established
opinion of government ownership of
the wire service. A few days ago, j
while he was on his wav hack in ii?n.l UaK
villr from .1 Baptist encampment on IJfll|jl
the Virginia coast, he was intercepted ^Ufl
at Lynchburg by a telegram from a|
firm friend made while they were in j
Y. M. C. A. service overseas, asking'
the Danville minister to hasten to! W
Washington to perform his wedding
ceremony. At Lynchburg, Va.. Dr. | JSJot
Hicks sent a telegram assenting and 1
making an appointment. The wire was K?D(
sent to Malcolm Kennedy. When it ancf
arrived at Washington it was fori
1 6V6I
"Solomon Kenny. and was not therefore
delivered. In the meantime I)r.' for <
Hicks was speeding north Arriving sure
at Washingtotn, he found that his
friend, hearing nothing from hlna.i The
had secured the services of another pror
minister and had taken his bride on ancc
their honeymoon. There was nothing ^
else to be done but to come home and ^
the minister took the first train. Ar-' t'?n
riving in Virginia, he made represen- ??
tatlons to the-Western Union Tele- .
graph company, asking for the return, L2U)l
of his railway fare. He was told that
nothing can be done and that it is
even unlikely that the charges on the
missent messsge can be canceled. L_?
