Foreign Representative Carpenter & Company, 122 Michigan Avenue, Chicago, Fifth Avenue Bldg.. New York City N. Y. Life Bldg , Kansas City, Mo Motorists now find much pleasure in seeking the best road between here and Fort Wayne. It depends on whom you talk to as to just which route that is but few of them include the state road which is allowed $750 per mile each year for maintainence and spend it filling the ditches with stone. It is said the proposed trading stamp scheme is to cost the merchant three per cent of his gross receipts. If any of those who are thinking of thus spending their money will invest one-half that amount in advertising they will increase their business considerably and keep the money at home.

Fred Mayer, formerly of this office is ' the business manager and is given much credit along with Editor Haines for the wonderful progress. An informal opening will be conducted tomorrow evening President Coolidge is working on his first message to congress and finds it a big job. It is that and when the members of that body get through | disect Ing. criticizing and fault finding lie will discover he has overlooked a number of angles unless he is more expert that has been any of those great men who have held the office before him.

Great Britain is trying out protective tariffs. They imposed a 33’,3% , duty on automobile accessories and ! the revenue to the home manufactur- , ‘er increased to the loss of the Unit1 / , til States. Now other lines are in- , sisting and the battle is on. If they 11 adopt a high tariff similar to ours , and other nations follow suit, where , will we be? It begins to look as ‘ though the age old contest on the tariff and the test of whether we can build a fence around our country and profit will have another inning. Illinois defeated Nebraska and Missouri and Kansas tied them. Notre Dame beats the Army and Princeton and then Nebraska runs over the “wonder team.” Comparison of scores to pick the greatest team is never a safe thing for there are so many things enter.

It keeps us from getting too soft and Its a real game for real men. Kaiser Wilhelm is to return to Germany. He has his passports in band and according to a Brussels paper will assume the throne in Germany December 4th. His son, former Crown Prince Frederick William will be his right hand man and may soon take his place, according to the dope. Just what this will mean we cannot say. nor can anyone else. The people of Germany, at least a large portion of them will resent it and unless the movement is well organized it will fail before It starts as did that of Ludendorff's a few days ago and it it goes over there will be various kinds of difficulties with other na-

tions and perhaps a resumption of I activities at the front. It will be a ■ seriously* interesting few weeks of history in Europe. The annual drive for Red Cross membership will start Friday of this week when young ladies from the high school and St. Joseph school will canvass the city. On Saturday those from out of the city will be solicited and the rural districts will probably be invited to join through the churches. It is hoped that one thousand memberships can be secured. There is no use to tell you again of the good of the Red Cross. It is the great charitable institution which does things when needed. In every crisis they aat with wonderful results and the organization must continue. One-half of the money raised is re-

It is a physicians prescription. Swamp-Root is a strengthening medicine. It helps the kidneys, liver and bladdet do the work nature intended they should do. Swamp-Root has stood the test of years. It is sold by all druggists on itr merit and it should help you. No other kidney medicine has so many friends. Be sure to get Swamp-Root and start treatment at once. However, if you wish first to test thit great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. Y., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paner. 3** ■ *

Dan, are Fort Wayne visitors today. ——— • MENACE OR OPPORTUNITY "These foreigners!” A menace or an opportunity? It all depends. It we shall shirk responsibility, A menace, fraught with awful port<>ns of a nation’s doom; America in grief will see the tires of hate consume Her flag of freedom; see her constitution torn to ribbons; Rockg, not wreaths, upon the graves of her immortal ones. Archeologists, in after years, will dig tile Mall. And write of glory gone—strange stories of a nation’s fall. But if we welcome those who land upon our shores; aud place The sigu of brotherhood upon each brow —whate'er the race—

jln each one's hand the stars and ’ stripes; the Bible on each heart; And lead the way to home and church And school and play the part Os host or hostess—share our goods and gold; show our ideal; Require justice; reverence law —the foreigner will feel < Within his soul for this homeland a ( true devotion rise— Then shall she live and grow. O my America, be wise. _» Here’s a Fine’Tonic Laxative, Says Druggist Every other night for three weeks it’s your duty to brew a cup of this ; •jreat vegetable tea —that is, if you ! want better blood, clear complexion . and sparkling eyes. ' CELERY KING I Get a package today. It costs but|l a trifle, but as a health builder is I worth its weight in gold. Normal bowel action, perfect work- I ing stomach-and sweet' breath follow I its use. The children drink it and enjoy it. and it's the gentlest acting laxative I they can take, especially good when I they are fretful, cross and feverish.

Had the team been playing up to usnd ; form the score would have be® twice that. Only the back field seemed to pW up to par. They smashed and npP« through Delphos’ line for long telling gains and it took three or ° men to down any of them, especial Stples, who played a wonderful gam at full back.
