• WILL GIVE HORSE
Hon. W. W. Crittenden Has Plan to Make the Red Cross $500 Richer To Donate Fine Animal
Hon. W.W. Crittenden with Mrs. Crittenden and Will Lewis were over from Oswavo yesterday. While here Mr. Crittenden authorized the Enterprise to announce that he desires to give a fine, sound roan horse, six years old and easily worth $200, to the Red Cross.
The proposition is to issue five hundred tickets and they are to be sold for. one dollar each. An opportunity will be given to all people in various sections of the county to buy one or more. On Friday evening October 18 & dance will be given at the hall in Oswayo, at which time the owner of the horse will be announced. The tickets will be numbered from 1 to 500 and on one will be written the word' "horse" and the person drawing this ticket from the sack will be the winner.
HE IS COMING
Dr. D. E. Jacobs of Oswayo to Locate in Coudersport Very Soon. He Will Be Welocme
Many people will be glad to know that Dr. D. E. Jacobs for many years the popular physician at Oswayo and for more than forty miles around, is soon to locate permanently in Coudersport. He was here Saturday and purchased a new desk and rented two rooms of Mrs. Dell Quimby in the old Ellison home at the corner of First and Main streets.
• Dr. Jacobs has the reputation of being a very successful physician and much of his practice has been in New York, often being called tG Wellsville, Whitesville, Spring Mill% and other points. He. says he would have stuck to Oswayo in spite of the fact that it has grown smaller since he located there but landlord Wright has concluded to leave and this left him without a home. The doctor is a splendid citizen and good neighbor as well as being an extra good doctor. Roulette people wanted him to locate there as Dr. W. H. Squires, who for so many years has been so poplar there nad decided to go to Port Allegany, where Dr. J. B. Colcord recently died. As two of Coudersport's doctors are in the war, there is plenty of room for Dr. Jacobs here, and he will be very welcome--but the Oswayo people are mighty sorry to have him leave there.
IS GOING ACROSS
Captain Alvin M. Whitney to be at Head of Balloon Company and to Sail Soon Captain Alvin M. Whitney, Ulysses, is spending his first furloneh in more than eight months home. He has been mighty busy with the Signal Corps in Washington and could have remained at that work, but when given a chance take his choice to stay there or to go get in the fighting chose the latter. Certainly Potter county can boproud of Captain Whitney. He is to be in command of company that will have charge the flying of cbservation balloons over the enemies operations--a very important work. Before going for few weeks Captain Whitney will get training in this particular line of work. He first goes to a field at Azbia, Col. from there to one in California and from there to another in Texas, when he will expect his orders to go across.
With his wife and little daughter and John L. Raymond, Mrs. Whitney's father, Captain Whitney visited Couder port Tuesday afternoon. He certainly looks fit and fine and every inch a soldier.
WAR SITUATION BRIGHT
With the surrender of Bulgar- ia, and Turkey sending peace feelers to London, Foch gaining on the western front and the (Fourth Liberty Loan going with a bang, the war situation has at no time been so bright. The Allied powers are not now saying "we will win the war" but instead "we are winning the war." There is every reason to believe that the beginning of the end is here. of at to 16 he a of a at in.
