REPRESENTATIVE WOOD IS NOW ON THE JOB

Left Parr Wednesday and Will Be On the Ground Floor For the General Assembly.

William L, Wood, of Parr, who will represent White and Jasper counties in the lower branch of the general assembly, went to Indianapolis Wednesday, passenger train No. 37, due here at 11:20, making the stop at Parr as an accommodation to him. Mr. Wood was attacked with rheumatism or some thing similar last year and was handicapped in getting about but he made a remarkable campaign, speaking at many republican meetings. He is desirous of doing what his constituents want dono in Indianapolis and will be found trying his level best to carry out the best policies and to represent his district With honor and in a straightforward manner. Mr. Wood will be glad to take up with any constituent any. proposition of legislation and to support all good measures with all of his ability. That he will be a live wire we feel certain and we believe he will prove 'a valuable man for the place. Mr. Wood <went down a *ew days ahead of the opening in order to take part in all the preliminaries and to secure good quarters where he will be pleased to meet his friends and constituents at 'any time during the session of the general assembly.

Representative Wood secured quarters at the English hotel, his room being No. 141, where his constituents will find ,a cordial welcofne.

8-Tear-Old Boy Kicked In Face; Painfully Injured.

Alvin Hurley, 8 years of age and a nepihew of Col. W. A. McCurtain, the auctioneer, was kicked by a horse while at MdCurtain’s last Sunday and severely cut about the face and is -confined to his bed, although it is believed that no permanent injury .will result.

Christian Church Revival.

Notwithstanding the fact that Wednesday night was stormy, yet there was a splendid audience in attendance. There was also a splendid chorus to load the singing. The sermon was on the theme “Is There a Hell ”

If the Bible is true, which today ( s an undiisputable fact, there must ! t>e a future beyond this life. The Bible speaks in plain terms about the reward of the faithful and the junishment of the unfaithful In iis story of Dives and Lazarus as ;old by Jesus,’Dives went to his reward, and the one thing he carried with him was his memory. Science teaches that there is a hereafter for a man, in the law of the conservation of matter. If matter cannot be destroyed one cannot destroy that which is greater than matter. Man has within him that which Is Indestructible. If a man (has lived on the square hls memory will be only that of noble, good and holy things; if he has sinned and waited his life his memory will ibe as that of Dives. Human life argues in favor of a hereafter. Here is a man who sends many a young' man to a drunkard’s grave; disrupts homes, destroys happiness, and makes a man lower than the beasts. There must be a hell for that man.— Here is another man who is as sMmy and filthy as the creeping serpent, who sends a sweet faced and wholesome life to the depths of shame. There must be a hell for the white slave traffleer. If there is not, there should be.

Things are not on the equal in this old world. One man has to suffer, endure and toil, and another man who thinks nothing of his God or the right fares supmtuouSly In his fine linens. There must be a time when these things will bo righted. God tells a man plainly that if a man lives nobly he will get his reward, and if ignobly he will suffer (for It. Sin always brings its own punishment, and a man begins his hedl here. The sermon tonight will be on “Jesus’ SweetestlStory.” There will (be special music consisting of a duet and 9010. Don’t fail to Come.

Mrs. Jack Wilson Now Making Fine Recovery.

Have You Named Your Farm? Why Don’t You Do It?

You a:e entitled to legalize the name of your farm by registering it at the county recorder’s office. Many have taken advantage oif it. Why don’t you give some approp riate name to the farm and protect the name by registering it? We -believe greater pride and better results follow naming the farm. Talk it over with the wife and the family and you will hit upon a name that will be a great souree of future satisfaction.

LET US MAKE OUR CITY BETTER IN 1915

John Holden Bays It is Time to Start and We Have Unlimited Confidence in John.

Several years -ago a stranger came to Rensselaer.

To many he is a stranger yet, because he has not devoted his time to getting -acquainted just for the sake of enlarging his circle of friends, but he has been a worker. He has embodied in him a deep seated conviction that it is not what one says but what one does or inspires others to do that amounts to anything. This man didn’t pose for the plaudits of the community;, he didn’t stop when some said that he was trying to carry things too far; he didn’t stop at anything, but went right ahead with his labor and wore callouses on bis hands. No man ever worked who did not get results. Sometimes the work has been selfish and the community has not benefited, but If a man was public spirited and broad in his version his work has told in community good. We don’t want to swell any person’s head, but Rensselaer has several men and several'women whose splendid sacrifices have helped to make this a really great city. They have brought it from the rear and placed it in the front rank in ap pearance and good fellowship and better morals. But to get back to this one man. We want to name him, not to please him nor to spoil him and not simply to give him credit but because we believe naming him right now will belp to make Rensselaer accomplish more the coming year. John Holden is the man. John just came to Rensselaer by chance.

Wanted to get out of Chicago and to enjoy the freedom of a live, forward-looking town. He hardly knows today how he happened to come to Rensselaer, hut he came, and his Influence has radiated for good ever since. Three years ago he said Rensselaer was -dirty and he said it in a way that didn’t make people mad. He made them acknowledge that there were a lot of weeds and tall grass and old fences and brush heaps and ash piles and untrimmed trees. We had never noticed horw had they looked before. He helped us see them in their worst light. He had some help. Dr. Gwin, health officer; Dr. Loy, who is a great beiiever in tidy premises; Superintendent Claike, of the public school®, and a great hand of workers who “fell to” and used rakes, lawnmowers, axes and pruning shears. The Holden spirit became epidemic and Rensselaer thrived under the new ambition. Scarcely a lawn that was not kept mowed and clean, scarcely a home in Rensselaer where there was not the most dheerful response to the appeal for a cleaner, healthier, more beautiful Renslselaer. People didn’t do it just because John Holden wanted it done, but because they saw that the plan was right and that it meant better health, greater happiness, and more satisfaction. The paint brush kept tune with the lawnmower, the hammer of the carpenter played in rythmic concert with the rake. I heard a traveling man say the other day; “Oh, you want to see this town in the summer time; its the cleanest and best kept town I visit and I go, to o lot of them. There’s pride enough for u« all. It belongs to us aIL Every travelling man is a booster for Rensselaer. Many of them will locate here just as soon a s we get another railroad and accommodations for these busy men to get in and out _ .. . . . "M

Well, we don’t want to be satisfied Satisfaction is stagnation. We lack a whole lot of meeting up to the highest ideal of beauty and cleanliness. We have only scratched the outside. 'But we have accomplished a lot but John Holden is not satisfied; neither are his aides and neither are you if vou are scrutinizing. There are piles of unsightly -things and an enormous amount of work for the coming months. It’s time to begin now the plans for the future. John Holden was in the office early today and has things started for the comiing year. Prizes will be awarded again for the best kept premises. The money will either be appropriated from the park fund or made up as before by subscription. John bdieves the city Should make the appropriation. We think so," too. The 'beautification and health of Rensselaer is a eom- : *nmniiy enterprise affecting all the property owners in proportion to

How the Fords Are Going.

Some interesting sales figures are shown in the report just made by the Ford Motor Company. During the months of August, September, October and; November last were 9,700 motor cam sold in California. Of these, 4,936—0 r more than half—were Ford ears. Reports from other distriete are interesting, showing the large proportionate increase of Ford sales in those districts. For example—in Kaufman county, Texas, from October, 1913, to October, 1914, 81 motor cars were sold. Of these 46 were Fords. C. R. livingston Ford dealer in McCook, Nebr., reports that in October, 1913, he sold 6 Ford cars; in November 7 Ford Cars; and in December no cans. In October, 1914, he sold 22 Fords, in November 20, and in December, up to the 3rd, 3 Ford ears. This shows an Increase of about 300 per cent over sales for the corresponding period of last year. Reports from other sales territories show the same proportionate gain. The Ford Motor Company points out the logical conclusion that this enormous increase demonstrates the growing use of the Ford as a general economic utility.

The Ad Man has been talking to the G. E. Murray Co.

Should be equalized by eomlng from general taxation. One other thing. John says it is time right now to plan ifor the porch boxes. Carpenters are idle. An indoor job making the boxes will serve the pur pose of giving employment and assure that there will be no delay in getting the geraniums, the ivy and the foliage plants started. John Holden says spring will be here before you know it. Let’s take John’s advice. He hasn’t given us a bum steer since he came here a stranger seven or eight years ago. Let us get an earty start to make Rensselaer just twice as delightful and healthful as It was in 1914. All aboard for 1915. -■ - -
