"The klansmen represent the spirit they have mistakenly culled 'one hundred per qent, AmfwicaiUam*. They believe it to be their patriotic duty to destroy those who ure not American born and of a certain religious belief. They will fight to the death for their cause; "On the other hand we have the unti-klansmen. believing that the klan itself is un-American, un just, and a menace to American ideals. They believe that justice will not survive if the klan predominates. "Take these two classes, put them in a small city like Herrin where the rush of business is not too great to give them time for introspection, where there often are hundreds of men on both sides of the fight out of work, give them ruthless leaders, s.rm them with deadly weapons—and tlie riots which have disgraced Herrin, the state of Illinois, and the nation are almost certain to follow.” o BLOOMINGTON — Two women. < jeted from a local dance hall, staged a terrific no-decision fight in the streets of this city.

You dasli to 'he mailbox to g?t a love-letter- and you find only ( Hit grocery bill. Such is the on- of life's bitterest moments. lint thev don't happen on the beat of E C. Beauchamp, mailman on one of the apirtment house district beats here. Beauchamp 'has watched the pleasures and disappeintments the mail brings until he has almost aii.unc.iiii.y sense of what is a welcome letter. So when a housewife hears him give the doorbell two long rings she ! knows it is a letter from her absent I husband. A young miss knows he' brings a letter from her sweetheart.* I But it one short brief ring greets their ears they know the postman has brought only a bill or a circular

letter. "It’s just a little scheme of mine to c make people happier." Beauchamp said modestly. "You soon learn about t people's correspondence on your route. It hard to tell which are < letters they want to get and which are the unwelcome ones. After you'e carried a few letters from someone’s ' sweetheart, you know just what re- ' cepticn to expect. It's no harder for ' me to give the right signal and it saves them a lot ot steps. They don’t like to make a special trip downstairs fSr a circular or a magazine." Smiles greet Beauchamp's progress ’ along his route, for his “patrons” know he won't fool them. HONDURAS NEWS Robeit Sovine was a business visit- | or in Decatur Saturday. Edith, daughter of H. P.
