Never before has there been so much leisure In the world, and hours of work seem to be growing shorter. To what end? Of what use is leisure if It cannot be _spent pleasantly or profitably? the babies sandpiles, the boys girls, yes, and men and women, too, games and gardens, places for reet and recreation for the elders that makes & town worth living m. «.

Th« iayrnent for the parks that way be bought will extend over many years and be a burden on no one. If iTerre Haute fails to take up this matfter now, with the rapidly rising price \ct real estate, it will soon be impossible to get these city open spaces Without a much greater outlay. London, twenty years ago, spent $4,000,£}0 in opening a small park in a contested district. We do not expect to 5 »al London soon, but about twenty xfl ago, all of the river bank from is plant to the grounds of the corks company could have been sbased f°r $15,000, Including the rf the Sparks mill and the Tracbompany plant.

buy the riverside land. Now, most of it is lost. There are many tales ©f similar acts on the part of various groups of city fathers. The election Tuesday will establish a park system for Terre Haute, and the land may be got while it can be had. Let our older citizens recall the time when they jumped over the back fence and were almost at once in the country, and vote for the boy who must play on cinder play grour,&s and bricked streets.

To speak the language of music in the sweet* est tones that spring from human lips, or are charmed from an instrument by the skill of

master's hands—that is the province of Victrola Records. v They are true tone-portraits inscribed with the priceless art of the most famous singers and instrumentalists this generation has produced* The genius, the power, the beauty of every voice and every instrument—all are inherent in Victrola Records* They present a stupendous musical review displaying the diverse gifts possessed by the greatest artists of all the world.

There are Victor dealers everywhere and they will gladly play any music you wish to hear* Victors and Victrolas $12 to $950.'

PROJECT SEEMS POPULAR.

Well Known Men Express Their Opinion of Park Election. The way it looks today, thefft will be little if any opposition to the cltv adopting the new park law and also the plan laid out by members of the park board. Men who have been circulating petitions have met witn no opposition scarcely. The men who are the largest property owners ana who will be effected by the ruling most, are all in favor of Terre Haute having parks and the men who have no taxable property will not be effected so the situation seems of simple solution. Omar Mewhinney, manufacturer, stated this morning that wniie circulating a petition he found but one objector and that he was a man who kicked about everything and would possibly vote "yes" on tomorrow. Mr. Mewhinney stated that there was never anything upon which the people would vote which would more materially effect property interests for the better than this adoption of the park law. "I believe that the largest number of the property owners are in favor of it," said Mr. Mewhinney, especially as they understand that it will affect

S. M. McClary, secretary Chamber of Commerce.—I believe that the new park plan is just the thing tnat it will boost Terre Haute as far as any project I knew of and I speak from knowing what it has done for the city of Cleveland, O. I believe that is wrat made Cleveland what it is today.

Dalton B. Shourds.—-This will be the greatest boost and the biggest thing for Terre Haute that could happen. It means better health, a better city and better citizenship.

Warner Paige, cf the W. H. Paige Piano Co.—I think the park plan is fine, and I believe that it is meeting the approval of the citizens generally also. It will mean much to the city.

W. T. Cheney, of .the Walk Over boot shop.—I want to see the election go by majority of vote "yes," stated Mr. Cheney. I think we need parks and play grounds badly and that it will mean the best thing for the city. I do not anticipate opposition.

OUTRUNS POLICE PATROL.

Even the Cadillac patrol automobile of the police department could not overtake a young colored hoy Monday morning when the machine acted as the pursuer with Motor Officers Clem Ring and Oliver Cox, and after chasing the youth from Eleventh street and Wabash avenue to Fifteenth street and the Vandalia railroad, they were forced to give up the chase of the agile and fleet-footed runner, but did recover a National bicycle which the boy had stolen.

life, even though Germany's capacity to fulfill them la stretched to the utmost. "Germany further lay» the greatest emphasis on the declaration that she cannot accept article 230-of the treaty of peace, which requires Germany to admit herself to be the sole and only author of the war and she does not cover this article by her signature. It consequently follows without further argument that Germany must also decline to recognize that the burden should be placed upon her on the score of the responsibility of the war which has unjustly been laid at her door. "Likewise, it is equally impossible for a German to reconcile it with his dignity and honor to accept and execute articles 227 and 230 by which Germany is required to give up to the, allies and associated powers for trials, individuals among the German people u-ho are accused by the allied and associated powers of the break of international laws and committing acts contrary to the customs of war. "Further the government of the German republic makes a distinct protest against the taking away of all the colonial possessions of Germany and the reasons given therefor, which permanently deny to Germany fitness for colonial activity."

What Would You Be

you had enough Efcergy "and Strength to carry ouit your plans and satisfy your ambitions. Energy and Strength is the basis of all Success, but Strength of Mind and Body is only as strong as the blood makes it. If the blood is weakened by Impurides or Malarial Germs, the result is Laziness, and Laziness becomes a habit. You never accomplish

much in life when this condition allowed to continue.

Thin, Weak Blood does not supply the necessary nourishment and warmth to make strong bodies, powerful minds, bright eyes and good complexions. Old Folks and young Folks grow much stronger, Mentally and Physically, when their Blood is Clear and Rich.

Broyo'a

Taste/ ess ohm Tonic

restores Energy and Vitality by creating new healthy blood. When you feel its strengthening, invigorating effect, see how it brings color to the cheeks and how' it improves the appetite! you will then appreciate its true tonic value. It destroys the Malarial Germs and removes the Impurities in the Blood. GROVE'S TASTELESS Chill TONIC is not a patent medicine. It is simply IRON and QUININE suspended in Syrup. So pleasant even children like it. The Quinine and !ron does not dissolve in the syrup' and, therefore, does not make the syrup bitter. You do not taste the bitter Quinine and you do not taste the Iron because both are completely covered with syrup when swallowed. The Iron used In GROVE'S TASTELESS Chill TONIC does not discolor the teeth or Injure the enamel and it agrees with the stomach better than other forms of Iron. The fpecially-Prepared Quinine used in GROVE'S TASTELESS Chill TONIC differs from the ordinary -i Sulphate of Quinine, in that it does not cause nervousness or ringing in the head and does not disturb the stomach, making it especially adapted to children and delicate adults who cannot retain anything of a nauseating nature.
