To Make Plans For the District W. R. C. Meeting. Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Childers went to Lafayette today, where they will visit their daughter, Mrs. Carl Harsha and family and where Mrs. Childers will make arrangements for holding the annual meeting of the Woman’s Relief Corps of the district, she being the president. Probably the convention will be held on Oct. 15th, at the soldiers’ home and Mr. and Mrs. Childers will not return home until Saturday, the 16th. Nineteen sixteen Model Maxwell touring car $655; self-starter and all modern; at the Main Garage. Call and see it. The Michigan City News on Oct. 2nd published a 34 page paper called the “Forward Edition.’’ It was descriptive of that city and its manufactures and business enterprises and was very creditable and should do the city permanent good. Its effect on us was to correct the impression that Michigan City was almost solely the home of sandburs and the state prison. There are a considerable number of manufacturing industries there and the businessmen seem to be the hustling sort that use printers* ink to get before the people. The News ’Forward Edition was certainly creditable and our congratulations are extended to Editor Rabb. We have just unloaded a car of stoneware. Stone jars from % gallon to 20 gallons; milk crocks from M gallon to 2 gallons; jugs from % gallon to 5 gallons; churns from 2 gallons to 6 gallons, and ait prices that we can save you money on all stoneware and flower pots. JOHN EGER. Our cotton and,woolen blankets and all our winter wear are all ready for your inspection. ROWLES A PARKER. Mrs. Harry Wiltshire went to Nappanee today to spend a few days with her daughter, Mrs. Gilbert Albin, who is there with her little son, Albert Earl, who will undergo an operation in Price Bros.’ hospital for a foot that has been crippled since birth.

MINISTER’S ACTION DIDN’T SUIT EDITOR

Benton Review Thinks Closing of Gala Week Shows Will Not Get Sinners Into Churches. Commenting on the action of Rev. J. Van Nice. Bundy and other ministers and a farmer living near Fowler who complained about the immorality of the shows in that town gala week, Editor George L. Roby, of The Benton Review, says: As a community, Fowler is very, very good just now. The preachers’ committee decided that we are so good that it would corrupt our morals if three or four women danced around in a tent, making-a good deal less showing of their flesh and form than several hundred thousand women have been doing at the bathing beaches of the United States the past summer arid a good deal less exciting to the male species than the pictures of the women bathers printed true to life in the rotrogravure sections of the Sunday papers. The most aristocratic women have been wearing their dress with no underskirts for some years, and the average man has become so blunted to excitement at the sight of a live female form that many of them can look at nude statuary without blushing. From our observation ,we think that the ministers have done their cause a great deal of harm in this crusade. It advertised the shows most thoroughly, and several times as many attended as have in former years when similar shows have not been advertised in this way. Only 35 per cent of the people in the United States even nominally belong to any church and we would judge the per cent to be even less in Fowler, where all the preachers talk to empty benches and if all the congregations were comthere are not enough people who go to church Sunday nights to rep*ay even one pastor for the labor of preparing a sermon, because the audiences are mostly made up of the pitiful little fraction of the 35 per cent who have formed a habit of going, and are content in the smug idea that they are Christians and anything the preacher may say means someone else. The number of new faces at the churches will not be greatly increased by the action taken last week, because even a temporary combination of church and state produces jptense antagonism whenever tried in this country, and what good are churches if no sinner attends them ?

Heating Plant Troubles Loom Large At Fowler.

Fowler has a heating plant that has been in a lot of trouble since its installation some years ago. At first the rate of 15 cents per cubic foot of radiation was charged. The company went into the hands of a receiver. The receiver increased the rate to 20 cents. Then the company went into the hands of the Northern Indiana Utilities Co. and they employed men from the Illinois Utility Co. to figure out an adequate rate. The Review says they used the Wisconsin and Lake regions schedule and made the rates so high that the people kicked and the rate was left at 20 cents. Some two weeks ago, however, and just on the verge of requirifig heat, the company sent out notices to take effect Oct. Ist that the heating rate had been raised from 25 per cent to 200 per cent. The advance had the approval of the Public Utilities Co. Users are preparing for a fight and have hired attorneys to oppose the increase of rates. The Review says that none of the users were given an opportunity to appear before the commission and that when the secretary of the commission was called over long distance and asked the reason answer was made that “everything was according to law.” The action comes as a serious one right at the beginning of winter, for many stores and houses are without any provision for heating other than from the public plant.

Bates Tucker Military Instructor in Porto Rico.

Bates Tucker, for some years u resident of this city and who has been, since his retirement from the United States army, an instructor in the University of Porto Rico, writes briefly to The Republican in sending money for his subscription. The university is at Rio Piedras. The military department of the school is in charge of Mr. Tucker, who was a first lieutenant in the United States army at the time of his retirement several years ago. He has been away from Rensselaer so long, he writes, that he now remembers only a few people mentioned in The Republican, owing to the many changes in the population. He concludes his letter by saying: “I am sorry my work has kept me from making a visit to the old town that I loved so when a boy, for I have always been interested in its people, many of whom were so kind to me when I lived there.” Lieutenant Tucker’s father was Rev. Tucker, who was for some years pastor of the Free Will Baptist church here.

Woman’s Relief Corps Inspection Tuesday Afternoon.

The Woman’s Relief Corps of this place was inspected Tuesday afternoon in the G. A. R. hall in the court house by Mrs. Robert Strickler, of Frankfort. A bountiful luncheon was served at the noon hour, after which the regular work of the Corps was executed. Mrs. Strickler complimented the ladies very highly on the efficient manner in which they performed their work and expressed her grateful appreciation of the royal manner in which she was entertained. The Corps is in a very prosperous condition at this time and two new members were initiated as a part of the afternoon’s work.

First Heavy Frost of Fall Occurred Tuesday Night.

The first heavy frost, in fact, the first frost sufficient to kill vegetation of the tenderest kind occurred Tuesday night, when there was not only a frost but a slight freeze. Corn had a fine opportunity to mature this year and fortunately it did, for the wet and cool summer had very much delayed its development. All over the county silo filling has been in progress for the past ten days or two weeks and soon husking will start. Potato digging is also an order of the time and before many days the shade trees will begin to cast their leaves to the ground and if Rensselaer keeps up its neat appearance every property owner will have to be on the job both early and late. So October has behaved very admirably and we can probably count on some fine Indian summer for a while.

Everything In Order For The Charity Card Party.

The charity card party at the armory this evening will have a large attendance and everything points to the event being a thoroughly successful one. Many merchants have been extremely kind to the committee, the tables, chairs, dishes and cards having been donated, while the pickles and some of the other refreshments were either given outright or a substantial concession made. The card party was set to begin at 7:45 o’clock and the band concert will firtart early in order that all may get to attend even though they get in a little late.

Express Team Ran Away; Horses Piled In a Heap.

John . Harmon, the American Express driver, was injured Tuesday evening and the team he was driving engaged in a desperate run from the W. H. Beam residence near the depot to the Joe Francis residence at the foot of Cullen street, where the team crashed into a wire fence and fell exhausted and tangled in the wire and their harness. The horses, one of which belonged to Mr. Harmon and the other to A. L. Padgitt, became frightened at a dog and as they started to run one side of the wagon tongue broke loose. They swung to the side and the wagon was turned over and the driver thrown out along with a load of empty egg cases. The tongue thne came loose and the animals went at top speed for more than a half mile. They were so bound up in the wire and harness that some dexterous handling was necessary to free them without injury, which was done by Tom and George Padgitt and Louie Muster. The wagon was slightly damaged and Harmon sustained a severely sprained hand.

Home Wheat and Home Flour Make Fine Bread.

Ralph Sprague, proprietor of the Iroquoih Mills, has convinced the editor and will convince all who will order Blue Ribbon flour that it is equal to anything in the country for bread making. Mrs. R. B. Crist tusked some bread Monday that was so fine a loaf was sent to the editor of The Republican with the request that we try it and give Jasper county wheat and Rensselaer nulling a puff. We can do this with the belief that we never ate any better bread and certainly Blue Ribbon Flour made from Jasper county wheat is good enough for any person and we believe our people should use it and thus help an important home industry. .

COMB SAGE TEA IN HAIR TO DARKEN IT

It’s Grandmother’s Recipe to Keep Her Locks Dark, Glossy, Thick. The old-time mixture of Sage Tea and Sulphur for darkening gray, streaked and faded hair is grandmother’s 'treatment, and folks are again using it to keep their hair a good, even color, which is quite sensible, as we are living in an age when a youthful appearance is of the greatest advantage. Nowadays, though, we don’t have the troublesome task of gathering the sage and the mussy mixing at home. All drug stores sell the ready-to-use product called “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound” for about 50 cents a bottle. It is very popular because nobody can discover it has been applied. Simply moisten your comb or a soft brush with it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time; by morning the gray hair disappears, but what delights the ladies with Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur is that, besides beautifully darkening the hair after a few applications, it also produces that soft lustre and appearance of abundance which is so attractive, besides, prevents dandruff, itching scalp and falling hair.
