KIGHt SCHOOLS OPENED

WITH BICATItNDANff

More Than Four Hundred Persons Signify Intention of Taking Free Courses Offered.

Terre Haute's free evening schools surprised even the school officials in charge Monday night when 422 students were enrolled at the opening. Three meetings held in different parts of the city brought men and women of all occupations to the school buildings eager to be admitted in the evening classes and to assist in permanently establishing the evening schools.

At Thompson school there were 272 registered and of this number 25 were 1 young women. The use of three rooms was needed to accommodate the crowd.

Councilman Harry Skean was one of |the students registered at the Thompson school.

Herbert Briggs, superintendent of the non-academic work of the city schools, had charge of the meeting al the Thompson school. He was assisted by Prof. H. W. Curry, principal of the school, and Prof. James Tilley, assistant city superintendent.

Prof. Briggs explained the course of study to be offered and distributed entrance blanks to be filled out. The students wrote the choice of studies and the evening they preferred to attend "school.

At Wiley high school there were more than 125 registered and 80 of these were women. Garfield high school reported an enrollment of 40 with a promise of added attendance later.

Prof. Briggs and Superintendent C. J. "Waits were enthusiastic over the results of the first night of the schools and said the registration had greatly exceeded their expectations. On account of the big enrollment at the Thompson school it is thought that the school will be made a manual training center. Most of the students at the Thompson school favored blue print reading and mechanical drawing instructions. "There were 78 women at Wiley high school who wanted instructions in cooking," said Superintendent Waits Tuesday. "They seemed eager to learn to be good cooks. Sixty-two wanted lessons in sewing. It looks as if we will be forced to engage a great many teachers for the evening classes."

Pathetic incidents which proved the sincerity of some of those who ervoil-

Says No One Need Remain Thin Now

Physician's Advice for Thin, Undeveloped Men and Women. Thousands of people suffer from excessive thinness, weak nerves and feeble stomachs who, having tried advertised flesh-makers, food-fads, physical culture stunts lind rtib'-on creams, resign themselves to life-long skinniness and think nothing will make them fat. Yet their case is not hopeless. A recently discovered regenerative force makes fat grow after years of thinness and is also unequalled for repairing the waste of sickness or faulty digestion and for strengthening the nerves. This remarkable discovery is called Sargol. 5ix strength-giving, fat-producing elements of acknowledged merit have seen combined in this peerless preparation, which is endorsed by prominent people everywhere. It is absolutely larmless, inexpensive and efficient.

A month's systematic use of Sargol •should produce flesh and strength by Correcting faults of digestion and by 'supplying highly concentrated fats to he blood. Increased nourishment is obtained from the food eaten, and the idditional fats that thin people need ire provided. Leading druggists supply Sargol and say there is a large lemand for it.

While this new preparation has given iplendid results as a nerve-tonic and ntalizer, it should not be used by ner/ous people unless they wish to gain at east ten pounds of flesh.

ed were reported by Prof. Briggs. At the Thompson school there were young men bent with the burden of a half hundred years in the crowd which came to receive free instructions. Two men who had passed the half century mark wanted to learn to read and write and a special class has been arranged for them.

One of the incidents reported which shows the value of the free evening school was the case of Mrs. Bryant, who for years was janitor of the Wiley high school. She applied to Mr. Briggs for admission at the evening school so that she could learn to write. "I have sent nine children through the public schools and they have learned to take care of themselves and now I want to learn to write. Won't you please let me get into one of the classes?" she pleaded. Mr. Briggs said that some arrangement would be made to give the woman instructions in writing.

It was especially noticeable that there were no foreigners among those who enrolled Monday night. Difficulty has -been experienced in informing these po.ple that they can be taught English by attending night school but it is thought that classes for the foreigners will be formed before the school has progressed far. An additional hundred students are expected when th* night schools open for work week.

PRAIRIETON VOTERS

Roberts Discusses Eoads and Taxes —Beal Invites Voters' Judgment On Ticket.

One of the largest democratic meetings of the campaign was held Monday night at Prairieton, where «v two hundred voters gathered at Manhart'e blacksmith shop to greet the county candidates and to liston to speeches. James K. Smith, well known Prairieton business man, opened the meeting Charles Conway was invited to preside. P. B. May urged the voters to support the national administration and to vote the ticket straight. Mr. May said: "The present democratic administration is the prido of every citizen of the nation. It has preserved us from- war with Mexico, and has kept us aloof from entangling alliances in Europe. lit is a magnificent tribute to our notion of human civilization, and has exalted America and the American people as a beacon light to all the world in its seeking for the brotherhood of man and the fatherhood of God. Weil filled factories and well filled schools are better than well filled cemeteries. Tho cream of our citizenship, the American youth, has been preserved to us by careful and beneficent administration at Washington and I would invite every voter, no matter what his previous political inclinations, to join with us this year and give Woodrow Wilson and his party such endorsement as will convince the world that his thoughts are American and that his acts are American and that he has the support and endorsement of every loyal son of the United States."

Mayor Donn M. Roberts spoke on county issues and was roundly applauded when he took the stand. He said:

Roberts' Address.

"Good roads and lower taxes this is our slogan in this compaign. It is the old story of the corporations against the people. No sooner had we prepared to improve the chief roads leading into Terre Haute from the different townships than we were deluded by injunctions and restraining orders secured by the railroads. Every can didate on the democratic ticket is pledged to reduce the burden on the taxpayer. This is a sincere pledge. In the city of Terre Haute this year we will save the taxpayers $55,000, and this, too, in face of the fact that we have undertaken more public work for the development of the city than was ever done in any ten years previously. The democratic candidates are pledged to substantial and permanent improvement of the county roads. In this state each year over $4,000,000 is spent to improve roads. Most of them need repairing again the first year, few last five years an,d in ten years the road is entirely worn out. Our gravel road bonds run for twenty years. So that under the present inefficient system of road building the roads are worn out ten years before ihe bonds have all matured. Vigo county hopes to take the lead in this great reform In Indiana. Its benefits are too numerous to mention and every candidate on this ticket should have the full endorsement of every taxpayer in the county."

Fred W. Beal Speaks.

Fred W. Beal was the next speaker. He said: "The democrats of Vigo need have no regret for the set of candidates they have offered for the support of the people. Eli H. Redman is known .o nearly every resident of the county. There is not a mark against his character either at the bar or as a private citizen. I predict Eli Redman will add to the reputation of the Vigo county bar and administer justice to one and all alike. Mr. Werneke has conducted the office of prosecutor economically and well. He has not sought to be persecutor. Where leniency and kindness would count more for society than prosecution, he has not hesitated to exercise his judgment as the law intends

He has saved the taxpayers money and has been everything a good sheriff ought to be.

All of the candidates can be recommended to the people as trustworthy men, who will do credit to the country."

Other speakers were Eli Redman, Frank J. Foley, Henry Cullen, James Gossom, John Grace, Everett Messick and other county and township candidates. The speakers were accompanied by County Commissioners Nathan G. Wallace and William Altekruse. Herbert C. Anderson, county surveyor, who

This the "Store Ahead" .V:vs

Of all the pleasant compliments which we hear on every side, this one perhaps strikes the dominant note. It was spoken by a woman who has long been a friend and patron of this store. She was speaking of our garment exhibit: "Each season's display is more beautiful each year your store grows better and better, more homelike and more likeable to shop in." She didn't know this was going into print when she said it, but it was good to hear and it voices the very things which we strive for so we shall continue to strive to uphold this—always. For tomorrow there are many more new suits. Welcome.
