Thrilling are many of the reports of health restored by Konjola, the new medicine for the stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels, and for rheumatism, neuritis and nervousness. For instance, the statement of Mrs. C. A. Adams, of Westfield, Illinois, who found new health through Konjola, while visiting her daughter, at 124 West Fourth avenue, Gary, Indiana. Mrs. Adams writes: "Merely to live feels just like heaven to me now, and 1 owe my happiness to Konjola. A number of yeais ago I had one kidney removed, and did not see a well day afterwards until I found this marvelous Konjola. I had indigestion, severe pains, cold sweats, and I became so weak, I could pot walk a block. I tried treatments and medicines without number, but got no relief. Konjola was recommended, and I tried it. To my amazement, two bottles made a well woman of me. I can eat breakfast —something I have not done in fifteen years. All my pain is gone, and strength and energy have come back to me.’’ Konjola is sold in Decatur, Ind., at Smith, Yager & Falks drug store, and Ly all the best druggists in this vi cinity.

Until a year ago Alabama was cock f the Dixie highway. year I Georgia Tech. Florida. Georgia and Vanderbilt jolted Wade's pupils into the b'g gum tree swamps with their touchdowns and goals. Wade's a great believer in .power . plays. His outstanding elevens have ; been able to pound through. A fav- , orlte is a rush off tackle that hits J like a ton of brick. Ball is fed direct to No. 1. with Nos. 2 ann 5 backs leading him to crash the end. No. 6 back and left end No. 3 smash the “ opposing tackle in. and 1 don't mean ’ maybe. They hit him with all they have. Meantime lineman No. 4 swings I 1 out and around to help muss up a de-1i fensive back, as end No. 7, after jolt 1 ing the opposing tackle, cuts through 1 1 for like purposes. But no plays today drive straight 1 off tackle. Every coach is hipped ' with the idea of making such attack ‘ look like an end run. This helps 1 dispose of the end as it draws him . 1 • straight across the line and permits * ■ him to be cut down from inside. 1 As that is being done, Na. 1 cuts in I 1 off tackle and drives his way forward. * It's a p’ay that aims to gain 5 yards. ■ ' That, by the way, is all that is need- 1

Must proceed then, shortage fuel." The American shipper is expected to arrive In New York between 10 nnd 11 p.m. tonight, Capt. Dennis A. Maloney, operating manager of the 'American merchant lines said: Majority Thought Safe New York, Nov. 13 —(U.R) —A majorI ity of the passengers nnd crew of i the stricken steamer Vestris appar- i ently have been saved after tossing for 16 hours on the rolling waves of; the Atlantic ocean off the Virginia capes. Up and down the Atlantic coast to-' day tlie radio flashed the good news . that rescue operations were proceed ; ing rapidly and at 6:30 pin. one off the steamers engaged in picking up I ' survivors reported that all the life I, ; boats and emergency rafts which had j i been put off from the Vesris yesterday afternoon had been accounted for except one boat and one raft. j, Nearly a dozen craft of various size today were near the place where the Vestrls went dwn. Radio opera- I tors on these ships were busily engaged in flashing out the news of the • rescue. j, From these messages, received by the I nited States Naval Radio and < the Radio Marine Corporation, it ap- ] pea red that at least five life boats—L each with a capacity of 57 passengers i ] — had been picked up, as had at i ( least one emergency raft, containing, t an undetermined number of surviv-' 1 ors. At 7:30 a.m. the Radio Marine Cor- f potation received a message indicat- : ing the steamer Myriad had 53 sur < vivois aboard, and it was believed 7 that the steamship American Shipper
had picked up even more. The Vestrls, enroute from New York to Rio Janeiro, carried a passenger list of 129 and a crew of 210; and of these 339 it was believed nearly all had been saved. To Return To New York Philadelphia. Nov. 13.— (U.R)— The radio operator at the Philadelphia Navy yard intercepted a radio message today which indicated that survivois of the steamer Vestrls might proceed to New York on the Hamburg American liner Berlin. The message was from the Berlin to the French oil tanker Myriad and said the Berlin hoped to join the Myriad soon and then take the rescued passengers and crew on to New York on the Berlin. Details Os Story New York. Nov. 13 —<U.R>— Radio flashed out today the dramatic story of how part of the crew and passengers of the stricken steamship Vestils were being rescued by various steamers that had forsaken regular routes to go on mer«*y missions. By 6:15 a.m., messages to the Radio Marine corporation indicated five I lifeboats had heen picked up—three I by the American Shipper and two by 1 the Myriam. Still another message I said only one lifeboat and one raft were missing. Officers of the Lamport and Holt line said that 57 persons could be ! carried in each lifeboat. On the basis | of the reports of rescue of five life(boats, it was possible that between 250 and 265 persons already had been saved. The 33g men, women and children aboard the Vestris were forced to take to life boats yesterday when the ship overturned in the billowing waters some 300 miles off the Virginia capes. Hope was high today that the life 1 boats had ridden out the storm and that all the passengers would be saved. The sea was described as “rough to moderately rough" and lains were beating down. The first word of rescue came at 1 4 am. today in a message to the I Radio Marine corporation from the ; American Shipper of the American 1 Merchant line, one of the vessels 1 ihat had altered its trans-Atlantic 1 course to go to the spot where the , Vestris went down. "Now on scene,” the American | Shipper wirelessed. "One life boat ( alongsde us now. At 2:25 a.m., dis- , covered red flare at 37.19 north and 70.38 west.” M Subsequent messages to tiaval I <
communications told how the coast guard cruised Davis had gone along side the American Shipper and had removed the passengers rescued by the trans-Atlantic liner. At 4 30 a m. the French oil tanker, Myriam. radioed the Radio Marine corporation that she, too, had picked up one of the life boats from the Vestris. The rescue was made a4 the same position a« the rescue made by the American Shipper. To Give Benefit Show A benefit show.

We are In complete accord with the wise policy of the American Red Cross which provides that the national and international work of that organization be financed by the relatively small membership dues paid by five million Americans representing every section s>f our country, and every walk of life. “The President of the United States has stated that "the American Red Cross is as democratic as the people and the government which it serves." We believe that the American people are justly proud of this democratic principle of their Red Cross and will wish to safeguard it. "We therefore urge that this, the tenth anniversary of the Armistice, be commemorated by the American people by dedicating themselves anew to the relief of suffering humanity through their Red Cross. We urge that the leaders of the 3,500 chapters of the American Red Cross take every possible action in order that the people may be given an opportunity to paiticipate in Red Cross work through membership." o Free home made candy at Sun Set, Wednesday night. —
