They only market securities that have passed a vigorous investigation, and which they can continue to supervise in the interests of their clients. As a consequence every security offered by them has afforded safety of principal and a steady seven percent (7%) income. The Suttles-Edwards Co. R. L. DOLLINGS CO., REPRESENTATIVES A. I).

'•rink propagu& win. i, «iii hit rich ■•nd poor alike. The booze fighters armed with the authority of mother church will urge: No Hale of )iq Uor on Sundays. No Sill, ‘ to men under eighteen years. No '(de in arlHtocriitlc clubs without a ll- ' •‘(me. General restriction of drinking hours. Heavy reduction in the amount loi wines, beers and spirits supplied io public houses. The wets, armed with iintl-dry proI'.irunda will be backed up by ut ]e UHt seventy per cent of the British populalion, it Is believed. Both sides will (he outdoor cinema us a means to their ends. The anti-boozers will how films depicting the sad lot of the drunkard, show him In all his gruesome loathsomeness, while, he heats his wife ami children. Tin- wets, it is reported, will stage a series of films showing the results of drinking bootlegged liquor, with picturesque effects on the part of blind-struck victims. Father Wrigley, prominent anti wet j clergyman, told the United states Press that the Roman Catholic church 'lid not wish to deprive the British working man of his beer, but believed that tlie evils of too much drink diould lie modified by minor restrictions. The Pussyfooters are jubilant at the diance of once more getting a real hearing. Their warcry at the opening stage will, it is believed, be one of restriction, but if the tide of battle swings in favor of the anti-alcoholic church-men, then England may expect the massed guns of Pussyfootism In full drumfire in a fight to a finish for I prohibition. Whether funds from America will l»e brought in to aid the dry cause has not definitely been stated. Meani while the wets have stolen a march on the drys by placarding the inner parlors of the famous “pubs" of London and the provinces with notices warning those who enjoy their beer to turn out in force when the cam- | paign starts. General opinion is that the wets will cotpe out victorious. Touch an Englishman's beer and you touch his pet corn. When that happens, he is liable to kick. o RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT Odd Fellowship!

NO CHANCE FOR HALF HOLIDAY ] New Ruling By Postmaster General Os Little Interest To Local Clerks If the khedive of Egypt had issued an edict that one-piece bathing suits were prohibited on tlie banks of the Nile, the of the postoffice could not have been more concerned than they were recently with the announcement of the postmaster general that Saturday afternoon holidays had been authorized “wherever possible.” | ’ In the summer city carriers were given the benefit of the department’s Saturday afternoon holiday order for hot months, but the clerks in the office worked on. The postmaster general has now given notice that a Sat- ] urday afternoon holiday for postoffice I employes has been authorized wherever possible without injury to the service, to become effective January 13, 1923. I Supervisory officials say they’ can not see how the holiday can be given here unless the city carriers alone find that they’ can finish their Saturday work earlier in the day. The office clerks will have no chance to finish work before the regular closing hour. The same number of clerks are employed in the local postoffice that was employed ten years ago and the amount of mail handled at the office I has been almost tripled during that time, so the employes, of the Decatur postoffice see no half-day vacations ahead for them. | • • Princeton —For fine work in helping condition and train the varsity foot ball team, the Princeton Omelettes, an organization scrubs have been '
