COMFORTABLY LOCATED. Boy Scouts Arrived”at Rome City in Good Time. Twenty-three ‘ Boy Scouts, accompanied by Scout Master Fred Patterson and his assistant, C. Pumphrey, left this city Sunday morning for Rome City, and arrived there in good time. They are located at what is known at Pleasant Point, near the Gene Stratton Porter home, and by noon were fairly well "at home"' under tents loaned to them i by the local manager of the Holland I St. Louis Sugar company. Entrance to the camp was made over the private grounds of Mrs. Porter, and the boys, with their paraphernalia were driven through the woods and over the hills directly to the spot where the tents were pitched. They immediately "got busy" and the tents were soon in place. A camp fire was started and exactly nt 12 o clock their lunch was ready for them. They are comfortably locatedj and there is no question but what the lads will enjoy every minute of their stay. They were driven to Rome City Sunday by Dan Tyndall. Clayton Shafer. Ed Boose, Bob Krick. J. H. Stewart and Roy Enos, of the KalverNoble garage, who took the tents and provisions on the truck. The machines were all on the ground by 7:15, and the truck arrived at 9:30. — — SHINGLE ROOF FIRES Indianapolis, August 13—Statistics compiled by the State Fire Marshal show the shingle roof to be one of the worst foes of Fire Prevention, and an evil which should no longer be tolerated. in Indiana, during the first six months of this year, 932 fires were reported as due to shingle roofs, with a properly loss of $214,936. No doubt g great many of the fires reported as “adjoining” were caused by wooden roofs. The greatest danger of the shing!" roof lies in the conflagration hazard. There has been no single great fire in the history of the country wherein the shingle roof has not contributed its part to the loss. It has been the same in practically every conflagration—fire communicates from roof to roof so rapidly, flaming embers light on roofs and start fires sometimes blocks from where the fire originally started, that within a very short space of time the most efficient fire department is rendered practically powerless. Indiana cities could do no better than to enact ordinances which will forbid shingle roofs anywhere wthin their limits. Metal, slate, tile or other non-combustible roofing of approved classes should supplant use of wooden shingles. WILSON~W aT PRESIDENT. (United Ureas Service) Washington. D. C„ Aug., 14 —(Special to Daily Democrat) —President Wilson’s name will go down in history among the score or more great war statesmen in the annals of the world.

Pinkham’s Vegetable ComI Pound is a dependable root and hetb i me( licine. It has made a place for itself among the great mass of people, because thousands of sick women have I tried it and proved that it will accomplish all that is claimed of it. Nothing unfavorable can honestly be said about it. It does not contain injurious drugs.
