The W. M. S. of the Evangelical

tpcial invitation to be present, none
showed up but L Neitzel. The special
offering amounted to over twenty
eight dollars. Mrs. O. U. Miller con

Young Lad Breaks Arm.
While engaged in playing basket
ball at the Murdock schools last Wed
nesday Wesley Reicke fell on the
floor of the gym with the result that
he sustained a fracture of one of
his arras. The lad wa3 ru hni to the
efiiee of Dr. L. D. Lse where the frac

as comfortable as possible. It will be
Washington. A thornier road for
lobbyists before government depart
ments, the investigation of whom has
brought intimations that a ring exist
ed which sought to arrange for a di
vision of millions of dollars of con
tracts, is being chartered by adminis
tration officials.
The inveestigative whirl has cir
cled about three p2rsons high in vet
erans and . national guard organiza
tions, and produced new witnesses
before the grand jury Thursday to
tell about the events that led to hold
ing up the millions of dollars of con
tracts for supplying equipment for
the war department's motorizati--program.
From other departments whence
ioobying charges have emanated,
there came a move to tighten U12 reg
ulations under which attorneys prac
tice. Most of those said to be in
volved in the charges being investi
gated by the grand jury are attor
neys. Close behind the word that Sec
retary Morgenthau was arranging
for a conference with representatives
of the New York City Bar associa
tion to revise the standards for at
torneys practicing before theasury,
there came intimations from other
departments that they might take
similar action.
Even before Secretary Morgenthau
arranged the conference with C. C.
Buvliugham of the New York bar
looking to revision of standards for
attorneys, the treasury head had tak
en to himself complete control of the
department's committee on enroll
ment and disbarment of practicing
lawyers. The order for this was
promulgated Jan. 5, at a time when
the government already had quietly
instituted inquiries into lobbying ac
tivities. While tre government was arming
itself against future attempts to use
undue influence in procuring govern
ment business. National Commander
Hayes, of the American Region, came
to the capitol to conduct his own
private investigation into reports
that two men high in the legion were
involved in the war department inquiry.
Ay res of near Alvo were guests for
the day and a very fine dinner at
the home of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph
Armstrong on last Sunday. All en
joyed the occasion.
The work of the CWA which has
been in progress at Alvo for some
time was discontinued last Saturday
and there will be no more work of
this character here until such a time
as there shall be provided more
funds to work with.
Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Wyatt, the
forman of the track work for the

very fine visit.
The Ladies' Aid of the Methodist
church of Alvo were meeting on last
Wednesday afternoon at the home
of Mrs. A. B. Stromer who was host
ess to the society and where the
ladies were entertained and where
they did some good work for the
church as well as being entertained
by the genial hostess.
Uncle C. H. Kirkpatrick, one of
the oldest of the loyal inhabitants of
Alvo antl one who has stuck with the
town through thick and thin, in an
endeavor for a better and livelier
town, has been in very poor health
during the past few weeks and is at
this time kept to his home and bed

From Saturday's Pally
The Cass county workers of the
Civil Works administration wiio had
faced the possibility of a "payless"
payday today, were relieved of the
necessity of delay ia receiving their
funds by the receipt of an allotment
cf $2,500.
The state offices cf the CWA had
exhausted their funds for the pay
roll use and had wired Washington
asking an appropriation of S2S3.000
for the week's payroll for all sections
of the state and late Friday were
authorized to expend $200,000 for
the use of the workers for this week.
The notification was given the lo
cal distributing officer, County Clerk
George R. Saylcs this morning, that
the funds had been alloted the Cass
county projects and the workers
would be able to receive their check!
as usual this afternoon.
Ther was a small surplus in the
Cass county projects and which with
the fund-; received today was ample
to cover the workers in all parts of
the county.

Secure Lower Rates.
At a meeting of the city board of
Alvo which occurred on last Tues
day evening there were there as well
Mr. R. E- Edmisten, one of the offi
cers of the light and power company,
also Mr. Scott MeGrew, also an of
ficer, but located at Louisville. These
gentlemen had been invited by the
Honorable Mayor Arthur Dinges to
discuss the proposition of the rates
for light service. The matter was
discussed pro and con and it was
agreed by the representatives of the
company and the council that the
rates of the street lights which are
eighteen in number should be reduced
twenty-five cents per light per month
which in the aggregate amounts to
$54.00 per year and effecting thi3
saving to the city. Mayor Dinges and
the members of the council feel that
this sum, though inconsiderable, is
well worth the effort of the civic
body.
