The Cantonese government, he added, would not be responsible for 1 xny "accident” in the event the gun- ' boats attempted to leave Hankow, be- 1 ’ore compliance. If the order is complied with, the 1 British gunboats will be marooned at Hankow while the nationalist forces 1 move northward to Shanghai, consid- 1 jred the next objective of the Can- ' ‘onese. ' In addition to the loss of prestige ' by British evacuation of Hankow ' property valued at a minimum of 1 $60,009,000 has been left behind by fleeing foreigners for the Cantonese.

Officials think the 15 U.

Officials admit, however, that if gun runners or rebels fire upon U. S. forces, the fire will be returned, and then almost anything may happen. I The administration's attitude today, e differing from the defensive attitude t earlier this week, was distinctly ag- ' gressive toward it£ critics, apparently 1 on the assumption that this govern- r ment has gone tifo far into the cen- t tral American fight to retreat. a

Plans are being made for a large choir, and it is hoped to jnake a great deal of the singing of Gospel songs. There will be, from time to time, special services of ®ong and special singer*-' that will help make the meetings both attractive and ininspirational. The pastor will do most of the preaching. This evening, all who like to sing and find it possible to come are asked to meet with Prof. Gerber at the Evangelical church at 7:30 o'clock for the organization Qf .the choir :md for u practice. o — SIX CHURCHES TO COOPERATE IN CAMPAIGN CCONTINVBD FROM PAOB has completed all the details for the opening of tomorrow's two weeks of worship, and gvery citiaen in the community is cordially invited to attend each night. Strangers are welcome at any of the six churches. An invitation from the six ministers has been extended to the members of the local Presbyterian congregation, which is at present withou at minister, to attend their services, and join in their worship during the. next two weeks. Series Opens Sunday Morning The six local pastors, whose churches and congregations will take part in the revival meetings, are: O. E. Miller, pastor of the Baptist' church: R. W. Loose, pastor of the Evangelical church; Somerville Light, pastor of the Methodist church; A. R. Fledderjohann, pastor of the Zion Reformed church; H. W. Thompson, pastor of the Christian church; C. R. Smith, pastor of the United Brethren church. The two week campaign will begin at 10:30 o’clock tomorrow morning. Services will be held tomorrow night in each of the and services each night except Saturday will be held in each of the churches. The time of each meeting will be announced by the pastor of each individual church. Several of the churches have obtained other pastors, evangelists, chorus leaders and other persons to assist them in conducting the meetings. The chief goals of the meetings are set out by the six pastors as: ‘‘Better lives”; "Better churches” and “Better community.” .Lodges, clubs, social organizations and sororities have promised to set thejr meetings during the next two weeks so as not to conflict with the hours of the revival services. Each church is expected to set a record in attendance tomorrow, and it is predicted that the total attendance for the six churches during the two weeks, will be considerably larger than-the services a year ago. Each church will have special features during the two weeks, and the meetings most of the nights will be divided into two parts, one includ-j ing the sermon by the uastor or a] substitute pastor, and the other part including the singing of new and old church songs. The pastors are desiirous of having every member of every church join them in making this year's revival the greatest ever held in northern Indiana, and they say that it can be accomplished if everyone will co-op-with them during the two wneeks. o CARD OF THANKS We take this way in expressing our heartfelt thanks to our many relatives kind friends, and all who assisted us in any way during the sickness and death of our Darling Habe. Also for the floral offerings and kind words of sympathy.

If this is done, there will be no conflict in giving the citizens a detailed report of each church meeting each night.

SURE WAYTO STOP NIGHT COUGHING A Treatment That Ends Night Coughs in 15 Minutes Persistent night coughing is usually due to causes which cough syrups and patent medicines do not touch. A remarkable prescription known as Thoxine, working on an entirely different principle, goes direcit to the cause, and is guaranteed to stop the stubbornest cough within 15 minutes. One swallow is all that’s needed. If it fails, get your money hack. No chloroform or other harmful drugs. Safe for children. Equally good for sore throat for which purpose it is far superior to gargles. 35c, 60c and SI.OO. I HOLTHOUSE DRUG CO.

- STATEMENT . "By of r Do(bpe'bßrothersJnc. s Within a few months, Dodge Brothen, x Inc., will introduce a new line of motor cars, in no way conflicting with the market for Dodge Brothers present types, but occupying a considerably higher price field and produced in limited quantities. Combining Dodge Brothers well known dependability with exceptional performance and striking beauty of appointment and design, these distinguished vehicles, l' we believe, will ir/tantly set a new and higher standard in fine car practice. Dodge Brothen will continue to produce their present line in maximum quantities to meet a demand which, during the year just ended, was very much the largest in their history, reaching the record total of 330,000 cars. ® V O' ■■ ■ I JBr’iwWx - I I Ujpßfe s I I Resolve to save During | i 192 7 | 1 .
