HOLDS OPEN HOUSE

New Quarters in Tribune Building Visited By Fully 500 Persons Wednesday Evening.

The new quarters of the Chamber of Commerce In the Tribune building •were thrown open to the public for the flrst time Wednesday evening and during the "house warming" President Spencer F. Ball,' Secretary E. H. Clifford and Assistant Secretary Grace I C. Neal were kept busy receiving tho congratulations of the visitors. It was estimated that more than 500 persons visited the new home of the organization, many of them being the wives of the members.

The rooms were bright and clean and newly furnished and were decorated throughout with large potted palms and numerous bouquets of cut flowers. Two of these, a large bunch of red carnations on Secretary Clifford's desk and a beautiful vase full of pink roses in the assembly room, were sent with the compliments of the Terre Haute Florists' club. Punch was served in the large assembly room by Eugenie Hubbard and Marie Relman. Music was furnished by two victrolaa, one donated by the Root store, In charge of Chester I. Abelowitz and the other donated by W. H. Paige & Co., in charge of Edward H. Critchlow. One of the elevators in the building was run specially between the first floor and the fifth floor for the benefit of the guests of the Chamber of Commerce.

The reception committee was composed of the officers, the board of directors and the members of the publicity, arrangement and membership committees, and these men say that almost every one present commented favorable on the new quarters. Architect D. B. Shourds, who drew the plans for the rooms and Roehm Bros., who are doing the work, came in for their share of praise.

Booster Songs Sung.

"Booster Songs of the Terre Haute Chamber of Commerce," printed on cards and distributed with the compliments of Capt. B. E. Stahl of the Light House mission, attracted much attention during the evening. All of them were arranged to the tune of popular songs. One of the best was "The Optimist," sung to the air of "Turkey in the Straw." The words were: Oh, his horse went dead, and his mule went lame, And he lost six cows in a poker game. Then a hurricane came on a summer's day And blew the house where he lived

away

As earthquake came when he was gone, And swallowed up the land where the house

on.

Then the tax collector, he came around. And charged him up with a hole in the ground. —Hole in the ground, te, he, he. "Was he discouraged? No, siree.

He struck Terre Haute and the spell went down. And now he's mascot of the whole darn town.

Among those present were Messrs. and Mesdames H. H. Sherman and children, Chas. Whitcomb, T. R~ Records, Adolph Joseph, A. R. Seewald and daughter, H. Kitzmiller, Frank Richards and Mrs. Delia Hubbard, Ora Davis, Walter Duenweg, A. S. Cooke. Alfred Cooke, Jr., Carl Wolf and J. M. Hedges, President Spencer F. Ball, Secretary E. H. Clifford, Assistant Secretary Grace C. Neal, Messrs. G. O. Dix, Benjamin Blumberg, Chas. Kiefner, Mr. and Mrs. A. "V C. Keifer, W. C. Ball, W F. Cronin,

BEGINS WORK ON FLOAT.

Work was begun Wednesday afternoon by Joseph JefferS, with two assistants on tho construction of the nineteen floats which will be used at the public bathing beach just south of the Vandalia river bridge on the

City.

east

bank of the river. A supply of lumber was sent to the west nd of the wagon bridge in order to start the work immediately and as fast as one float is completed it will be towed to the opposite bank and placed in position. Jeffers, who is well versed in the construction of .boats, will have full charge of building.

The cost of building the floats necessary to equip the beach is light, according to Voorhees Griffith, city controller. The nineteen floats can be built for about $450 or $500, though the best material must be used. The tops must be #f first grade lumber, while the bottoms must be of select material.

An Easy Way to Increase Weight

Good Advics lor Thin Folks The trouble with most thin folks who wish to gain weight is that they insist on drugging their stomach or stuffing it with greasy foods rubbing or. useless "flesh creams," or following

S'rne

foolish physical culture stunt, while the real cause of thinness goes untouched. You cannot get fat until your digestive tract assimilates the food you eat.

Thanks to a remarkable new scientific discovery, it is now possible to combine into simple form the very elements needed by the digestive organs to help them convert food Into rich, fat-laden blood. This master-stroke of modern chemistry is called Sa'-gol and has been termed the greatest of flesh-builders. Sargol aims thi-ough its re-generative, reconstructive powers to coax the stomach and intestines to literally soak up the fattening elements of your food and pass them into the blood, where they are carried to every starved, broken-down cell and tissue of your body. You can readily picture the result when this amazing transformation has taken place and you notice how your cheeks fill out, hollows about your neck, shoulders and bust disappear and you take on from 10 to 20 pounds of solid, healthy flesh. Sargol is absolutely harmless, inexpensive,'" efficient. Leading Druggists of Terre Haute and vicinity have it and will refund your money if you ore not satisfied, as per the guarantee found in every package.

Caution:—While Sargol has given excellent results in overcoming nervous dyspepsia and general stomach troubles it should not be taken by those wfyor do not wish to gain ten pounds or more.

INTERESTING TOPICS

A. M. E. Sunday School Worker" Continue Sessions At the Spruce Street Church.

The program of exercises for Thursday at the Sunday school convention, being held at the Spruce Street A. M. E. church included discussions on many important problems that confront the people of the nation. After the devotional exercise Miss Pauline Maxwell, of Evansville, discussed "What Should be the Attitude of the Sunday School as to Amusements," and the general discussion was led by the delegates from New Albany. "The Aim of the Sum ay School" was the subject of a talk by Paul Henson, of Mitchell, ajid the discussion was led by the delegates from Spencer. Miss Clementine Roundtree, of Lyles, talked of "The Sunday School and the Temperance Question," and the discussion was led by the delegates from Charlestown. Other topics were "Music in the Sunday School," by Miss Susie Twyman, of Jeffersonville, discussion led by delegates from French Lick, and "What Should We Get From This Convention," by Prof. John W. Lyda, of Terre Haute, with the discussion led by Vashon Eagleson, of Bloomington. One of the most interesting features of the day was the discussion of the training of teachers, led by Prof. Guy Bishop, of Mt. Vernon, and Miss Eva B. Porter, of Terre Haute.

The presence at the convention on Wednesday of Bishop B. F. Lee, presiding bishop of the Fourth district of the A. M. E. church, led to the selection of Allen chapel as the place for the next annual conference of the district, the date being fixed for September 23, two weeks later than the date originally establishbed, It being expected that the new church will be completed by that time. During the afternoon session of the convention Bishop Lee delivered a powerful address in which he appealed for the development of true manhood and true womanhood among the members of his race, declaring that next to God the black man must have confidence in himself "The black man," he said, "must have respect for what he sees in the looking glass. He must know that God made him out of the same material that he made other races, the only difference being that after making him He went to the trouble to color him and curl his hair."

LABORERS UNEARTH SKELETONS

Find Bones of Adult and Children In Excavations. NOBLESVILLE, Ind., June 25.—Laborers working in a gravel pit on the J. W. Tritlipo farm today unearthed two skeletons. One was that of a child and the other that of an adult. The bones were well preserved, but were easily broken when exposed to the air. The Tritlipo farm is on a high bluff overlooking Fall Creek, and it is presumed that it was once an Indian burial ground. Several years ago seven skeletons were found in the gravel pit.
