Keep the stores open in the evenings from now until Christmas and give those who are employed until 1 late in the afternoon an opportunity to shop. They ask it. A New York woman with a millio’ ; dollars in cash married a hoy of six- i teen the other day and now an effort i is being made by some outsiders to < prove the boy of unsound mind. Don’t sound so dumb at that. When a Lebanon man was asked who he would rather be just now, tlw Governor of Indiana, the Governor of Illinois, the Governor of Oklahoma or . Service Commission, he replied, “If forced to a decision, I believe 1 would 1 join the naw and sec the world.” I —Lebanon Reporter. t . The Gbod Fellows -are responding to the appeal of the Delta Theta Tan ladies and are assisting them in se- : curing a fund with which to provide a Merry Christmas for the poor children of the community. You won’t miss a few dimes or quarters very much but think how much the poor kiddos will miss Santa Claus it W don’t come to their houses. Do it now. We have had several requests to urge the business houses in this city to remain open evenings from -now until Christmas. Men and women who work and especially those at the sugar factory say they have no opportunity to get to the stores.. Those who do not leaiTt their work until six o'clock, cannot do any shopping and it looks as though these requests should be heeded. It has been the custom to keep the stores open the week before Christmas but this Has been an unusually .late fall and it is probable the stores would profit by complying with the suggestion. It seems that many people think the road north of here is a part of that W Druggists taninieufl - Swamp-Root For riT’y years druggists have watched with much interest the remarkable record maintained by Dr. Kilmer’s Swamp-Root, the great kidney liver and bladder medicine. It is a physicians prescription. Swamp-Root is a strengthening medicine. It helps the kidneys, liver and bladder do lhe work nature intended they should do. Swamp-1 loot has stood the test of years. It is sold by all druggists on itr merit ami 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 thir great preparation send ten cents to Dr. Kilmer & Co., Binghamton, N. V., for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this paner.

over which Charles Magley, road sup- < erintendent has jurisdiction which in < wrong. That is u'furt of the state (l road, No. 21 and is under state super- . vision and the local officers hate noth- u Ing whatever to do with its condition. I Mr. Magley tells in a notice in today’s paper just who is responsible for the | road. The roads of Adams county I under Mr. Magley are in far better I condition Ilian the state road ami with k * an average of $125 per year to mair. £ tain them us compared to five or six h limes that amount for the slate road, fl The republicans of Indiana arc H plainly worried because of the attitude I taken by the governor, Who though y under indictment on 198 charges, re- ■ fuses to step down and out and deelares in a loud voice and with much h determination, he will serve his term H out if he lives. Chairman Walb has fl t ailed his state committee together to H plan for the removal of Mr. McCray, H but so far, no one has just figured out M how it can be done. Some believe fl a meeting of the legislature for the fl purpose of acting as an impeachment fl court would be legal. Others do not. fl If McCray is removed. Branch would fl become governor and in case he is fl forced out, the job goes to Nedjl, a fl Gary contractor and many feel that fl neither of these would be much of fl an improvement. It's not only ser- fl iously important politically but ass grave matter for the people of in- s diana. I o R The People’s Voice | Dear Sir — Several articles have ap- fl peared on the editorial page of your fl valuable paper in the past four weeks R concerning the state road north of | Decatur, and just as I expected, “the I blatae placed on me.” I do not know S whose opinion it was neither do 1 fl care, but I do think the writer knew what ho was talking about. \ Now, for the benefit of Mr. Clifford | Syniff »>! the State Highway System, 8 whose office is in Fort Wayne, I want fl to say that I have 750 miles under my fl dLpervislon with a maintenance fl fund of less than $125 per mile, will fl put any of them up in comparison with fl lhe road in question and if Mr. Syniff fl «r|Xny of Avorkmen want tq know fl who the author is just call in and the fl editor will furnish him the desired information. ■ £ Y’ours truly, S — CHAS.
