An agreement was reached yesterday at the disarmament conference to send an international commission , of jurists to China next year to report I on conditions there. Let's hope theyl will do a better job than did those members of congress recently described by Miss Adams, the missionary who said the only thing which interested them was whether or not I there was a plentiful supply of intoxicating liquor on hand. The record made by the local Red Cross workers in raising a fund equal to that of last year is one worth while. Any business enterprise which i this year compares to a year ago is a success and much credit is due Mr. Albert Sellemeyer and those who assisted him. The reports from Berne, I Preble and other parts of the county, are very encouraging and proves again that this is the best community in the world. An association of nations has been proposed by President Harding and Secretary Hughes and plans are now being made to extend the disarmament conference into such an organization, making it permanent. It will be a second series of the league of nations it seems but a great many i people don’t understand why the league which has some, fifty members should be set aside for the same thing under another name and it may not prove as easy a game as the first announcements make apparent. The milk campaign in this county next March will surprise you by the 1 knowledge imparted by various methods. There will be lectures and exhibits, advertising and displays under supervision of the state health board and Purdue University. Children and adults who use milk and its products are the strong and healthy people. Milk will prolong life and give you more strength to do the things you are intended to do.' We have plenty of it right here at home and we ought to use more and we will after this campaign. Get back of it. z "" RICE’S SCHOOL OF MUSIC Teaches how to play the following Instruments correctly: Violin Clarinet Cornet Saxaphone Alto Trombone Drums, Etc., Etc.

Red Cross experts have just given out statistics providing that in the year 2074 the average person will live to be 100 years old and many will of course greatly exceed that age. Wonder what they will do with that part of the Bible then which provides for three score and ten. but then why should we worry about what's going to happen 153 years from now? We probably won't be bothering anybody round these parts any way. There is no doubt that the average of life is increasing but this is largely due to the fact that more babies are saved and that all the people reach an age nearer the maximum, rather than that the old age limit is being advanced. Wise shoppers have already started looking after their Christmas purchases. so one merchant told us yesI terday. And he said it indicates a happier Christmas than we have ever had. People who buy early, even though they only have the goods laid aside, do so in comfort, and they also get that which they want before it has been pawed over by those who wait until later on when stores are crowded, clerks are tired and the choicest of Christmas things already I carried away or spoken for. ChristI mas stocks are not gfting to be any cheaper the day before Christmas II han they are this week. So you can save nothing that way by waiting until the last minute. Clerks have more time to attend to your wants now than they will have later on. So you are sure of being suited. And then, when the tardy ones are sweating and fuming and working themselves into a nervous fit over what ■ to give for Christmas you will have | the satisfaction of knowing that you | can sit back and comfortably escape all of such worry. Sensible Christmas buyers are those who have already commenced to do their buying. WOULD LEAVE CITIES United Pres* Staff Correspondent Warsaw. Ind., Nov. 26 —Many manufacturing concerns with plants in Chicago and other large cities are seeking locations in the smaller ' towns of Indiana. Illinois and southiern Michigan, basing their action on ! cheaper labor costs. Chambers of commerce in northern | and central Indiana towns during the I I last few weeks have been besieged by representatives of these big city concerns, who are seeking induceI ments to move their factories to the I smaller towns. Negotiations praci tically have been closed for the bring-| ing of a number of these concerns to i I northern Indiana localities, but the I propositions put forward by other manufacturers generally have been, turned down. The plan of the manufacturer in these instances have been to dispose of a certain amount of stock in the towns where it may be i decided to locate. In other instances | the manufacturers have offered to locate in the smaller towns if factory sites are offered for a term of years. The real inducement which is influencing many 'of the big city manufacturing concerns to go to the small towns is the fact that in these places wages paid are lower than in the large cities for the same class of work. Numerous factories in Indiana towns of 10,000 population and ' tinder are now paying men as low as $2.50 a day and these plants are working ten hours a day. e LOOKS LIKE A SPECIAL.

Rome, Nov. 26.—1 n the recent formal decision of the Italian Popular (or ! Catholic) party to throw the whole i weight of its influence in favor of the j League of Nations and the International Labor Bureau, Italian politicians not only profess to see the Hand of His Holiness, but also to see the first step of the Holy See towards eventual admission to the League of Nations. That Pope Benedict has cherished this hope ever since President Wilson first gave utterance to the idea of a i society of nations has never been secret. The only thing that has prevented the Vatican from taking definite steps toward that end has been the certainty of severe opposition that would be aroused in various quarters, and especially in Italy—at least as long as the Vatican-Quirinal question , remains unsettled. When, the past summer, there was summoned at Geneva an international I i conference for stricken Russia in ! 1 which the League of Nations, the Red | Cross and other similar international i associations participated, Pope Benedict for the first time in years had . the Vatican officially represented. Later, when the League of Nations i assembly convened at Geneva in September, His Holiness exchanged friendliest notes with President Karnebeeck. Still later Pope Benedict placed at the i disposal of the League one million lire for distribution on behalf of the Rusj sian famine sufferers. And now the Popular or Clerical party, which in the three short years of its existence has become the next strongest political party in Italy after the socialists, lias adopted as one of the fundamental planks of its platform the party’s whole heated support of .the League of Nations. s—s—s—WANT ADS EARN—»— s—* Advice for Women Who Suffer. “I advise every woman who suffers ; with kidney trouble to try Foley Kidney Pills,” writes Mrs. Bessie Brawner, 2522 Scoville Ave., Cleveland, O.

AMERICAN JAZZ Carried to French by San Francisco Man —- Dance Halls and Theatres ARE “SET GOING” By Howard E. BookerAmerican Jazz Band Give Music for the Events. United Press Service. , , Paris. Nov. 26—Howard E. Booker, I of San Francisco, the man who set all England dancing, inflicted American Jazz bands upon the United Kingdom, and taught the stolid Britisher how to shake a wicked shimmy, and intro duced the “tight little isle" to baseball, has invaded France. When Booker gets through, France will be agitating the "chemise” to American steps, to American syncopation, played by American jazz bands; also seeing movies produced by American and English artists on French soil in movie-houses financed by Americans and run by American methods. Within twenty-four hours after setting foot on French soil Booker signed a lease to the Apollo Theater and started a dance.hall on a plan brand, new to Frenchmen. Also in a twentyfive minute deal bought the second largest movie house in Paris for three million francs. Booker's American quick-lunch methods of business bewildered the Frenchmen so much they were suspicious of him and asked to delay the deal. It was only when he scribbled a check for one million francs to bind the contract that they decided he wasn't joking. His first venture at the Apollo Theater has just opened with three American jazz bands playing American tunes. Booker imported fortytwo English girls, four American girlg and four Belgians to teach Frenchmen to dance the United States way. There are also four American men and eight Englishmen to teach French girls. The instructors sit in a special inelosure awaiting the summons. The would-be chemise waggler merely buys a ticket for one franc which entitles the holder to one dance with the instructor. This is the same system Booker introduced into England at the Hammersmith Palais de Dance which had such a phenominal success. The Apollo has already had a striking success with 500 to 1700 dancers every night. The hours are from midnight to four o’clock in the morning and a tea-dance from five to seven in the afternoon. "The American man is the best natural dancer in the world,” Booker said. "And the American style of steps is the best. That’s why Europe is crazy over American dancing. Also the American syncopated music cannot be beaten. All Europe is dancing to our tunes —or will be when I get through. The English girl is almost as good a dancer as the American girl. The French run a bad third. And the remainder of Europe is nowhere in the running. "Europe is just waking up to the dancing craze and moving pictures—comparatively speaking. And Americans are getting in on the groundfloor for the boom that is to come.” — • Mrs. Jasper Gilbert is suffering from stomach trouble the past two or three days. She had just recovered from erysipilis. of which she was seriously ill for several days. Louis Stump form south of town was a businfess visitor here this morning. GAY COLORS IN HOSE GIVE WAY TO BLACK London, Nov. 26. —(Special to Daily Democrat). —Feminine ankle apparently have gone into mourning. The bright red, green, blue or tan silk stockings that used to brighten the London streets nave disappeared. “Stroll along Bond street or Regent street any afternoon and for every gay pair of ankles you see you will count at least four black ones. The disappearance of the bright colors is credited to the sudden craze for black that is sweeping through the dress world a craze that is largely ascribed to stocks of black material accumulated by the great Paris houses for purpose of mourning during the war and which the houses are now attempting to unload. Nor docs the craze for black stop with stockings and frocks, but has penetrated to the realm of the “underneaths.” ENGLE WILL GET S2OO DECLARES BERT WILSON Hartford City, Ind', Nov. 26.—According to H.
