WATCH OUT,
GOSHEN FOR
THIS CROWD!
rSPKciAt. To The Times
GOSHEN, IND., Nov. 29. This City
haa received advance information that
territory adjacent has been selected for
a raid by an irresponsible bunch of wild
hunters from East Chicago on Satur
day and Sunday of this week and no
tices are being sent out to farmers
south of here to round up all of their
live stock, barricade their windows,
coop up all barnyard fowl, post the
proper notices and se that all barbed
wire entanglements are in food repair
in preparation for the visitors.
One circumstance, however, niat looks
suspicious and for which there has
thus far been found no plausible ex
planation is that a prominent architect
from that Lake county city, whose'
name is said to be Morris or something
like that is here today making the
rounds of all markets and buying up all
the rabbits that are available. It is
not common belief here however that
Mr. Morris is planning to put anything
cer on his East Chicago friends.
The local game warden has been in
formed of this proposed raid and has
been given the following names of the
persons who are said to be in the ap
proaching party: H. M. Cawhen, C. K.
Haliace. Zepher Campwell. Joe Lun
sintr and C-corge P. Fulst.
This warden informs us that the
name Cawhen sounds like the name of
the chap that was one of an invading
party a year ago but who went home in
disgrace because he carried in his game
sack nothing but the remains of a lean,
scrawny, woodpecker. He admits, how
ever, that the names were received over
the phone and that he may be mistaken.
The party will be reminded that accord-
ing to law they cannot bag over fifteen
quails each. A single ruffled feather
over this number will subject them to
immediate arrest, even if they do get
manhandled by irate farmers and torn
on barbed wire.
Friends of the members of the above
parties in East Chicago should be ad
vised that one Yucatan Richhard is
secretary of the bunch and Is authoriz
ed to take advance orders for game. It
is said that they chose a secretary be
cause they knew that just as soon as
East Chicago knew that they were go
ing hunting, they would be just pester
ed to death for requests for quails, rab
bits and other game. Mr. Yucatan will
fill only such orders as are filled in ad
vance and only in the order in which
they are made to appear on his books.
It is believed that an extra quarter or
two might be considered an inducement
for preference on this list.
This party, it has been decided by a
local vigilance committee, cannot re
main in the county over twenty four
hours and must remain sober during
that time. ,

the following; pledge:
We pledp to our country our
best effort to prevent waste and the
selfish use of our food reserves. We
pledge our loyal, cooperation in
carrying; out the conservation
measures suggested by the-government.
And if economy sometimes grows

Whereas with victory won and peac
almost at hand, the principles of free

a mighty opposition, and
Whereas, the humanitarian purposes
for which these "United States entered
Into and participated in this moment
ous struggle cannot be .fully accom
plished until order has been restored
and authority established among the
confused and suffering populations of
the old world, for which purpose food

Dan Brown, Mayor of City of Ham

the citUens of Hammond and vicinity
to join in an effort now being made
by the United States Pood Administra

a menace more potent than armies.
I commend to your serious attention
the importance of continuing unabated
the policy of conservation as it ap
plies to all things needed and neces-
sary for the readjustment of an order
ly social system, but more especially
as pertains to food, without which
there Is grave danger of disaster far
outreaching anything we have yet wit
nessed. In accordance with the program of
the United States Food Administration
promulgated during Victory week, De
cember 1-t, and the appeal of the Hon
orable James P. Goodrich, governor of
Indiana, therefore, 1 ask that every cit
izen solemnly resolve and dedicate
himself to a strict conformity with
the praiseworthy and humane effort
now inaugurated to save millions who
without our help, are doomed to starva
tion, during the months to come.
