L !—"I! ! 2 " 1 The merchant who lets up on his advertising at this season of the year is simply ‘‘laying down on the job.” Tlie man who gets ahead keeps pushing ami the one safe way to push is to advertise. Five people were killed at Ingalls, near Anderson yesterday when a traction ear struck an automobile. The season is just starting and those who motor should begin now to stop, look and listen when approaching a railroad crossing. Fort Wayne has eighty cases of Vincent's angina, a disease which effects the nunith and which is not only a very painful, but a serious ailment. A peculiar thing about it is that it rarely attacks babies or children, usually found amoung adults. The disease was discovered during the World war when thousands of soldiers suffered from it. The Democratic candidates for
councilman of the first ward of Bluffton have hit on a novel campaign stunt. Being close friends they have had their pictures taken together and placed on cards with the comment "take your choice.” That is to be the extent of their campaigning. There is not much chance that the nine Republican candidates for mayor in Huntington will all have their pictures taken in a group, and content themselves with no canvass. Huntington Press. Boy will have their Inning in Decatur next week. Its "Boy’s Week", baiked by the Rotary Club and the youngsters will be honored anil ent rtained in various manners. The pronum starts Sunday when every minister will pay his respects to the youths who in a few years will have charge of things. In the schools, in the homes, at various events, the lads will have the seats of honor and be the subject of discussion. It's a line idea and we're all for it to the very limit.

Politics is one thing, jus- ' ice is another and using mystery ‘ methods to defeat the law is quite i another. We don't believe the three will mix without an explosion that ' nay rock the state. There is entirely too great a tend •my for the general public to judge he entire student body yf our col leges and universities by the worst I itudents of (lie lot. There are a few ) dudetits who use poor judgment along certain lines and create disturbance i tnd trouble, and the mistakes of f those few are far and wide as typical -of college life. The actual r-eality is ? quite different, however, for the avert ige student has insufficient resources I and too little spare time to engage
.n frivolities, even if bo so desired. *,’llo amusements, for the most part, consist 'of attending an occasional show and the Union Mixer dances. These dances are chaperoned more properly than the dances die students would attend we.ro they not in scjtool. In fact, there has been so much slander and criticism directed against the morals of college students, that university and college authorities are taking every precaution to eliminate any sort of dissipation and misbehavior on the part of the students. The student is watched by the college. in most cases, even more closely than he would be if he were not attending some college or university. There are very few students who will risk their chances of staying in school t ~ in order to engage in a vefy serious , ottense.—The Purdue Agriculturist.

STORM VICTIM WRITES LETTER Girl In Storm Area Thanks Pleasant Mills Lady For Dress Donated —— Mrs. H. M. Crownover, of Pleasant Milla, made a donation of clothing and bedding during the Red Cross drive for clothing and money for the relief of the victims of the tornado in, southern Indiana and Illinois recent-] ly. This week, she received a let ter ( from a young lady in Murphysboro. Illinois, who received a dress given by Mys. Crownover. in which the girl expressed her thanks for the dress ami also told something of the storm I here. The storm was probably most severe at Murphysboro and the first , hand account of the tornado given by the girl is interesting. Her letter io Mrs. Crownover is as follows: Dear Unknown Benefactoress: — Today 1 was given the little dress you sent to Murphysboro with the note and dollar bill in pocket and I x am taking this time to thank you lor it. I have always been taught that a "friend in need was a friend in deed.” and the outside world has sure been awfully good to we people down here. .Some other Mme after 1 am more settled 1 will write ami toll you al! ' ■ilsiut my experience in the awful storm, but now 1 can only tell you a very little. 1 live with my father and /mother.' I was the last one at home out of four children. My mother and dad are getting up in years. We had a
lovely seven room home with every-’ thing modern and cozy. We also owned our car. We had good jobs, but like our home, our jobs blew away. Our house was torn up and very piece of furniture wc had was broken. My mother was hurt and ‘•ad one married sister who was burnd pretty bad, but none of us were l Bed and we arc all about well by now. Os course all of us were hurt some, and every one of us was cut up and bruised. There are 155 blocks completely torn up and burned and besides that there was damage done to almost every building in town. Up to date Uiere has been a total of 222 deaths and there are several others that can't get well. At one time this was one of tile prettiest towns in southern Illinois, but now- it is a huge pile of rubbish, but I am a believer in the old town and I believe that she will come’back bigger and better than ever. The Hitside world has sure been awfully good to we people down here. I am •me that we are indebted to almost every person in the United States in some way. Well. I will not try to write more at this time but if you should care to Imar it I will write again sometime in the future and tell you all about it. The papers didn't tell it half as bad as it really is. In fact there aren't words to express the awfulness of it. So thanking you again and again for the dress and money I am, your now _ To Get MoM Chit of Yow « • Visit to CMraJn, Stop at the COMMONWEALTH HOTEL CHICAGO iSiip ;*’• ’ • Ob Awaiy PtfVray—dde Lincoln Only 10 minute* from the loop vie <W ovniWar -nacb—yet quiet and rextfut Chicago i Ideal hatej Location- The CtaEowealth afford* accommodation and luxury for ’tr rucata.
