Miss Coral Ropp will accompany them to Milwaukee to spend the winter. A good many farmers have begun husking corn. It is not often that a at this job is made until after frost and a fros* might help considerably in drying the grain, although the lack of rain during the fall has caused the corn to dry out very well. The general estimate seems to be that there will be a half crop in this sectionToday is rivaling those preceding it as a day of perfect grandeur. The sun is bright and warm and the air has the soft, cool qualities appropriate to the autumn season. Certainly no country on earth has more delightful climate than in the fall of the year when .she behaves herself, but you can hardly tell a day in advance when she will kick over the traces. Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Steward returned last evening from their visit at Bedford, French Lick and Madison. At Bedford they attended a convention of the Baptist church; at MadisOn the state meeting of organized charities and correction and at French Lick he took treatment for his infected foot,'which is causing him a great deal of trouble.

Mr. Vasen raised several thousand bushels of potatoes this year and is advertising them for sale at 'the farm for 50 cents a bushel.
The Old Man.
Boys, when you speak of your father don’t call him the “old man.” Of course you are ol£er now than when you were taught to call him “father.” You are much smarter than you were then; you are much more manly looking, your clothes fit you better, your hat has a modern shape and your hair is combed differently, in short, you are “flyer” than you were then. Your father has a last year’s coat, a two-yearold hat and a vest of still older pattern. He can’t write such an elegant note as you can and all that, but don’t call him “old man.” Call him “father”. For years he has been hustling around to get things together. He has been held in the thorny path of uphill industry, and the brightest half of his life has gone JErom him forever. He loves you, though he goes along without saying much about it, therefore be not so un= grateful.
The Home Paper.
Ex-Governor Francis once said the following of newspapers: Each year the local paper gives from SSOO to SI,OOO in free lines to the community in which it is located. No other agency can or will do this. The editor, in proportion to his means, does more for his towirthan any other ten meq, and in all fairness he ought to be supported—not because you like ; Min or admire his writings, but because the local paper is the best investment a community can make. It may not be 'brilliantly edited or crowded with thought, but financially it is of more benefit to the community than the preacher or teacher. Understand me, I do not mean mentally and yet on moral questions you will find most of the papers on the right side. Today the editor of the local papers do the most for the least money of any people on earth.”
