Old Man Winter has ■ h Pr e so long and we are glad he is being pushed out. He announced a three months stay and remained six. ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ While it may fiot seem very important to you just now, the completion of the municipal swimming pool is very important. Within ninety days that will be about the most popular spot in this part of the country and we will wonder now we got along without it. The city council has appropriated an additional $2,000 to complete the job right and make the pool a safe, sanitary and inviting one. ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ The property owners on south Winchester have wisely petitioned tor extensions of five feet on either side of the twenty foot highway to he constructed by the township and the petition has also wisely been granted. It will make that a splendid street and will add to the properties more than it will cost. Now if some enterprising citizens on Winchester, north of the Nickel Plate, will get busy with petition for improving the worn out street and for lights, it will add greatly to that section. ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ Federal officers swooped down on Vincennes yesterday and gobbled up thirty-two violators of the Volstead law. It is rumored that plain clothes men are circulating over the state these days and that raids in a number of the smaller cities are not only possible but sure. We haven’t any evidence as to this community but if there are those here who are thus indulging, better take the tip and get out of the business. Its dangerous and the punishment severe. ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ When a politician begins to preach you can safey bet he is after something. Governor Jackson is delivering sermons now from such texts as “Righteousness Exalteth a Nation" and “Render Unto Ceaser the Things That Are His and Unto God the 1 hings That Belong to God.” The subjects are fine and what he says would sound good if the same plan hadn’t been tried so often by professional politicians who think that the way to get votes is to make the people think they are saintly. ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ The Countess of Cathcart who had to force her way into this country opened her show, “Ashes of Love,” in a Washington theatre the other evening. Though she has been widely advertised because of her immoral conduct, the theatre was crowded with what is supposed to be the society of the capitol. The countess is any thing but an actress of ability and the whole thing was a huge farce at which the patrons giggled and snickered behind their handkerchiefs, but for some reason, perhaps the fear they would miss something, they remained until the last act was over. ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ Another of the old school newspaper editors passed to his reward Tuesday, when W. W. Timmonds died at his home in Portland. He was eighty-one years old and for a third of a century, from 1868 to 1902. was editor of the Portland Sun, in thJse days of forcemul expounding of Jeffersonian democracy. Attei disposing of his newspaper plant he opened a job shop which he conducted until a few weeks ago when a general break down forced his retirement. He was a fine old gentleman and a newspaper man of attainments. ¥¥¥ ¥ ¥ An ordinance went into effect at Wharton, Texas, yesterday , according to a dispatch to the Chicago Tribune which ordered that all chickens within the city limits be kept in pens and concluded thusly: "All chickens found out of the pens after this date shall be given to the preachers of Wharton. Rev. Seimetz and Rev. Covert formed a committee which called upon us this morning, endorsing the idea, recommending that similar action be taken in Decatur at once and suggested that it was a line thing to exercise the chickens each afternoon at two o clock. ¥¥¥ ¥ ¥ Ten farms in New Hampshire have been selected for agricultural experiment stations to try out electrification for farm power Purposes. Among the types of equipment on tyhich data is being obtained are dairy electric refrigeration, milk coolers, water supply, house lights, barn lights, poultry house lights, electric range, washing machine, dish washer, flat iron, vacuum cleaner, water heater, cream separator, milking machine, bottle washer, house refrigeration. Other operations which it is planned to test are farm shop equipment, feed mixing, silo filling, hay hoist, fertilizei mixing, sewing machine, electric incubator, electric brooder, and a PPIe grader. The work is being conducted by the experiment station, in cooperation with the state and national committees on the relation of electricity to agriculture, and is being carried on for the benefit of the New' England area.

WHY WE SUFFER
Laughter and sunshine and mirth. Sorrow and heartache and pain, Living our days on the earth. These ever present remain. Never a joy we can choose And the hurt of its passing refuse. Nothing from sorrow is free. Nothing is hopelessly bad The sinner, repentant, may be Restored to the place he once had. The lass that we suffer was sown In the soil where our pleasure was grown. Who smiles in the love of a friend Must carry with him through the years For the day when that friendship shall end

They're the same boys and girls,” Pre-1 bate Judge O. R. O'Donnell declared in an interview here on the "younger gen-, eration.” Speaking on this “Much ado about nothing," Judge O'Donnell said: “Wei have had a lot of time-saving Inven tions, and tour young folks have just kept up with them.” “The modern youth and girl moves; a bit faster, that’s all," he thinks. "You ought to have heard what their | parents said about the ‘Sally Maters when it ws introduced 25 years ago," reminisced the probate judge, referring to a dance of that name and comparing ; it with our present “Charleston” craze. “People were as greatly criticized dancing the “Sally Waters’ back in 1901, as they are of the Charleston] today. “Os course they petted in that day,"] Judge O'Donnell continued, “only they didn't call it 'necking' or ‘petting,’ back] when motjier and dad of the present generation were young.

All concrete is porous in a slight measure, and all underground concrete needs waterproofing protection in proportion to the depth of the foundation, wetness of soil or direct hydrostatic pressure. Stick a pin in that fact. The makers of the waterproofing materials we use are experts in specifying the kind and amount of material used for every protective purpose. Our experienced crews are expert in the correct application of materials. The Philip Carey Company and ourselves offer a joint complete service that insures safety and satisfaction. A. R.
