Tlte roads are long, not so wide, and you can't be too eareful in traversing them. t s ’ We like the style of Wilber Huston, fte lad who won the Edison scholar- • s irtiip. He is modest and makes no “ „ I pretense of being either an Edison or a magician. He is going to -work < hard to get a degree and then hopes to become a chemical engineer. He . i will and the chances are he will be a good one. Prohibition enforcement officers ‘ will nqt be allowed to use rifles or ’ sawed off shot guns in their chases ‘ of liquor violators along the Canad- ' fan border, under a new ruling for 1 the officers cf Commissioner Doran, 1 the result of numerous recent killings. ' Its a tough old problem alright any 1 way we figure it. , ________ A When you build a house you help c your community in numerous ways. ’ In the first p'aee t is a good invest- 1 ment for yourself, then it helps all 1 the tradesmen whi assist in its erec- * tion, it helps the dealer in lumber, '<■ brick or other supplies and most of ! all it helps the young man who is ‘ thus enabled to buy a home and be- 1 come a real citizen. — i Os cours you are entitled to a t vacation it you can afford it and r >el you need it. Go ahead and have a good time and come back ready to go I at it stronger than ever, but don't 1 overlook the fact that perhaps your competitor is on the job and is making hay while you are catching blue 1 gills. When you go away be sure to 1 ’ have your advertising campaign work- ( vd out and plans made so your business will go al ng just as though you 1 Was on the job. - The great northwest, particularly the states of Oregon and Washington < are fighting the most terrible forest fires they have bail in that section in years. Already thousands of acres of the world's finest trees have bean destroyed and the flames have done flamage to highways, power plants find irrigation systems. An army of men is constantly on the line fighting the flames which evidently cannot be etopped until they burn themselves «Hit J or until ra,ins. come to aid in the igltlle. -j'; — The stock market has had one of Its regular cases of ague this week and prices have tumbled regularly and in good sized thumps.

Then along came the folks with money and gobbled them in. Now they will probably start upward again. So goes the great American game of trying to get something for nothing. The European corn borer has finally invaded Henry county, having been found In Stony Creek township. The situation is bound to be bad but not necessarily alarming. The corn borer is in all but three townships in Delaware county and its movement into Henry county was only a matter of time. In addition to Henry county the corn borer was reported in three other counties for the first time, Wayne, Howard, and Madison. Stony Creek township will face a quaran tine and an inspection station likely established. The immediate effect of the quarantine will be to prohibit the transfer of green corn from this township. Federal scouts have been in the county for two weeks looking tor the corn borer and finally found the pest in the extreme northeast part of the county. It is likely that other townships of this county will soon be included in the quarantine.—Newcastle Courier. To the business man who thinks the public does not need to be constantly reminded of who he is and what he has to sell, the often told story of Pyle's Pearline will bear repeating. In 1904 Peartine, a cleaning material, was used by a large percentage of the housewives of the country, and the company spent $500,000 in advertising that year. Later the advertising was curtailed, and about 1907 it was discontinued altogether, as the company thought the product was so well known that it did not require further advertising. Sales fell off rapidly, but the owners persisted in their non-advertising policy until 1915, when the whole concern, including good will, was sold for $12,000. Pearline was dead. Many other products whose, names were household words a few years ago are not heard of today because they failed to keep up their advertising and consequently the public forgot them. Business men must remember that new generations are coming along all the time, and these new buyers must be personally sold on a product or a store, as their fathers and mothers were sold before them. The only time it is safe to stop advertising is when one is ready to go out of business.—Anderson Herald. o MODERN ETIQUETTE By ROBERTA LEE Q. In whose name are the invitations to the marriage of a very young widow sent? A. In the name of her parents, or exactly as the invitations to her first wedding were sent, but instead of using merely the name “Dorothy”,, the inviation should read. “Dorothy Smith Brown.” Q. Is it bad form to play with the silver, or finger things on the table, during a meal? A. Yes; it displays nervousness and self-consciousness, and is often very annoying to others who are present. Q. What is proper for the wi=e host to provide for a motor boat outing? A. Extra raincoats and wraps far Itis guests. o •, ALL OVER INDIANA Indianapolis—Suit has been filed by Mrs. Margaret Chapman against a beauty shop "here in superior court for $25,000 damages as a result of injuries while having a permanent wave placed In her hair.

TELLS NEED OF FIELD SECRETARY Missouri Man Chief Speaker At Session of Weekly Press Assn. At Bloomington Bloomington, Ind., Aug. 10. The country newspaper business will never be on a substantial foundation until every weekly paper is a sound going concern, employing business methods that Insure stability,’' C. L.

' "From my standpoint. I believe the | field secretary work is primarily for the small publisher,” Mr. Hobart continued. “because we must remember the great truth. ‘No chain is stronger than its weakest link.' In the newspap - game, the strong links are able to c re for themselves; the weak link need the strengthening." The Missouri editor explained that ’he business of the field manager is to ' make newspape l prosperous, but the I ul imate aim is io make them greater instruments ol twice to the public. ; "The field manager is essentially a service institution,” Mr. Hobart said. “He mast constantly be on the alert f a .the interest of his members. Another profitable service of the field secretary is his consistent and p rsistent fight on the space grafters, those highly paid harpies who are so generous with their offers to 'ill our columns with real, live, snappily written superbly illustrated, mat-furnished ‘news.’ The field men urge their mem-
