Not a 77iing/fi But a Service rj|k —The Home Town Paper SOME folks make the mistake of thinking of the home town newspaper os a thing, a contrivance of ink and paper, sometimes not a great quantity of either, when compared with big city papers. But the home town newspaper is not a thing, it is a service, just the same aa is the telephone. And just as the 112 or sls a year which we pay for the telephone service seems not too much, so is the $2 or $3, which at most is charged for the home town paper, trifling, compared with the real service which the paper, itself an institution, renders to all the other institutions of the community.

Warsaw, Nov. 2.—Dependent to some extent on further reductions in building costs country clubs and summer resort buildings will be constructed in Kosciusko county next year calling for an outlay of more than $1,000,000. One of the improvements contemplated is the building of a country club and other improvements on Lake Papakeechle at the northwest end of Wawasee lake, the estimated cost s?ing $225,000. The site is made up of 60 acres and recently;, was sold by the Charles A. Sudlow estate of Indianapolis to J A. Pritchett of Nappanee. acting in behalf of a syndicate of Nappanee,residents. Masons of northern Indiana will construct a summer hotel on Wawasee lake and establish a summer place for Masons exclusively at a cost of $200,000 to $250.1100. e Warsaw professional and business men are planning the building of a country club on Tippecanoe lake at a cost <X $250.00ff. Tentative plans have been prepared by an Indianapolis awthiteeht. The Epworth Institute of tke Methodist Episcopal church of the North Indiana conference, has taken an option on a lars» piece of land on the batft of Webster lak* with the idea of constructing buildings to be tfeed during summer months. improvements are contemplated for both Winona and Wawasee lake. ■ a Mr. and Mrs. J. j£.

Washington, Nov. 2. — (Special io Daily Democrat).—Nine thousand, one hundred and three persons were killltd in the United States by automobiles and other motr vehicles except motorcycles during 1920. The census bureau announced today. This represents a death rate of 10:4 percent, per lodlboO in population and is one percent, higher than the motor vehicle fatalities in 1911. BRILLIANT OUTLOOK No brighter prospect for the International Live Stock Exposition eva| existtd than on the eve of the 1921 assemblage of the aristocracy of the pedigreed draft horses, beef' cattle, swine al® sheep of this North American continent and Europe at Chicago November 26th to Dectmber 3rd. d Despite a period of depression, for which there is scant precedent in trade annals breeders .nnd feeders both manifest surprising interest, as evidenced by an imposing array of entries. Both numerically and'from the standpoint of quality, the basic principle of the Exposition, the 1921 aggregation at Chicago will demon strate the virility of this most important industry, essential alike to the conversion of coarse grains and grasses into merchantable product, ana to the daily replenishment of the larder of the nation: AU through the stress of the postwar readjustment the live slock, industry has functioned unfalteringly. Tiie 1921 International Live Stock Exposition will constitute a convincing demonstration of its virility. The seed stock of the country, incalculable in value, has not only been preserved but improved, as wiM be shown by the most imposing array of young animals ever presented in an American show yard, together with their progenitors, imported and domestic origin, the whole constituting a galaxy of merit possible oniy at this annual Chicago event. The 1921 “Internationa!” will be the defiance of the American stockman to adversity. More and better draft horses, beet cattle, swine and sheep will be presented to probabl- the largest audiences the “International” has ever attracted from the four corners of I the globe.

Among those present were Mr. and Mrs. Meyer of Salem, parents of Mrs. Langworthy, Mr. mi Mrs. Burnett of Rockford, Ohio, Mr. and Mrs. Connerman of Fort Wayne, the latter two being sisters of Mrs. Icingworthy. An enjoyable meeting was had and the day was spent in a social time. * E. B. Macy, wife and daughter, Miss Mary, were over Sunday visitors of W. S. Smith and family. Monroe experienced a quiet, safe and sane Halloween celebration. Not a single cause of depredation or wanton destruction of property is reported. Possibly this is due to the vigilence of the marshal and his deputies. William Stuckey who receztly purchased the Lawreace Beitler harness and, on Tuesday moved his family from Decatur into the Dal Snell ])W>perty on West Washington street, where they will reside,, in the future. The state concussion will be at th< court houge next Friday to have a hearing on the S. J. Martz petition regarding the placing of gates or watchmen®at. the two crossings on Jackson and Washington streets. Halloween is again a thing of the past, at least for the present, to both voung and old. The masquerade oarty and box social held on Monday it the school house at this place was one of the best al® by far exceeded my previous oaes held in point of the largest crowd,- amiability and financial view. Early in the evening masked persons gathered at the auditorium of the school house, and long before the hour set for the beginning of the the large room was crowded with persons from over the nearby towns. The masked were in large numbers, arra nearly every iragonality was represented. Aftong those notable was the “bride and groom” represented by Mrs. William. Mitchell as bride and Mrs. Hulda Crist as groom, who were very prominent personages attended by their attendants® The awarding of prizes was then in order. The first prize was ctaptured by Charlie, the son of Mr. and Mrs. Forest Andrews, representing the best old nStn character; the second prize was carried away by Mrs. Srandyberry, as being the best world wt® soldier character, and “rs. Will Michaels Jr., representing an Indian squaw. Many other costumes were very pretty and appropriate to the characters they represented. Ask Martin Busche what he knows about the umbrella woman. Several pret-tily-decorated booths were arranged in the hall, with pretty young ladies luring the young men to purchase home made cajidy, soft drinks, etc. They all dqpe a lucrative business. The box selling by Col. Fred Schurger was very spirited and brought fancy prices. Last but not least were the selling of votes for the njpst popular young lady present began, much enthusiasm and determination was manifested between the contestants: Misses Mary and Lavina Christianer, Cecil Myers and Miss Vera Bright. Miss Bright was awarded the honor of being the most popular young lady present. The cake w'alk was entertaining and amusing, and It as well as all other attractions netted a handsome sum to be added to the school. Prof. Walter Krick was the right man in the right place—as doorkeeper and his soriorlous voice could be heard for a half square away—- “ Ten cents, please”—and we are safe in saying that no one escaped his eagle eye, as was evidenced when he checked up the "gate receipts." Taking all in all. the Halloween in Monroe was one of the most sane and safe cacasions yet witnessed here. Not a jar ; occurred to mar the festivities of the evening. The managers who had the party and box social in their hands desire to thank all who assisted them both in their attendance, liberality and in making this one of the best occasions ever held- in the town of Monroe, and even look forward to a far better Halloween celebration in the year 1922,

Your state of health largely depends upon the food you eat No one who is physically ailing in any way can afford to take chances with the food he eats. For upon the selection of your food, and upon its perfect digestion and assimilation largely depends your state of health. The most important thing in connection with I the digestibility of any cereal food is the way it is prepared —and the length of time it is cooked or baked. Grape-Nuts, the rich cereal food made from whole wheat flQiy and malted barley, is probably baked longer than any other cereal food. A large part of th© starch of the wheat and barley is changed into dextrin and grape-sugar in Iprepankg Grape-Nuts. This is one reason why Grape-Nuts is so easily digested by even the most delicate people. Grape-Nuts is wheat and barley so processed as to make it delicious and appetizing; even young dWdren thrive on it and grow strong and rosy. Go to your grocer today and get a package of Grape-Nuts. Eat it as a cereal with milk or 1 cream, or lhake it into a delicious pudding. It f Mkll be enjoyed and rekshed by every member of the imily.
