Bible Story Recital at Christian Church Sunday Eve. In the outset of her Home Bible Chautauqua story recital Sunday evening at the Christian church, Miss Spraggins gave as the motto of her course the following quotation: “The Home is God’s first and holiest school.” - After the presentation of hey masterpiece of the evening, “The Visions of Youth,” a clever surprise was revealed when several little girls ran in from a concealed room in the rear of the church and eagery said, “Now tell us our story.” The eyes of the audience suddenly fell upon a typical home scene when the story teller, surrounded by the children, responded with a series of bright and catchy stories, to wfiich the children listened intently. A number of the stories were ' illustrated with songs such as “The Tabernacle,” “Jewels,” “Jacola’s Vision,” “Nearer My God to Thee,” “The Heavenly Mansion,” “Our Father,” to the tune of “Home, Sweet Home,” the children assisting ecectively in the singing, while Miss Thelma Martindale accompanied at the organ. Night Fire in Donnelly’s Woods North of Town. Alf Donnelly, the onion king, was in town Saturday night when he learned that fire was raging in his woods .5 miles north and a half mile east of town. He owns 70 acres there, having purchased it last fall. It is not known how the fire started but it had burned over about 40 acres of the land. Mr. Donnelly procured a car and a number of men and they went to the land and after four' hours’ hard fighting succeeded in putting it out or confining it the area over which it had burned. How much damage had occurred could not be estimated that night and Mr. Donnelly has not visited it since. Ban Concerts to Begin Wednesday Night, May 3rd. The summer band concerts will begin Wednesday evening, -xay 3rd, if the weather man sanctions it. The band has practiced all winter and Prof. Braun will put out excellent music again this year. If the weather is nice it is.quite probable that a large number from nearby towns will be here for the concert. The program for the concert will be printed In Wednesday’s paper. , Miss Mildred Harris went to Chicago today for a few days’ visit. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Brim, of Madison, Wis., went to Monticello today for a short visit after visiting here with Mr. and Mrs. Joe Moore. Remington had a carnival last week. It was not much of an affair, it is-said, but there was a big crowd in town Saturday night, a number from Rensselaer going over. Jefferson high of Lafayette and Delphi high held a track meet Saturday and Jefferson won 60 to 48. Julian starred for Delphi, making 21 points, winning three firsts and two seconds. Col. Theodore Roosevelt was in Chicago Saturday, where he delivered two addresses. Preparedness was his chief topic. He took dinner Sunday with Harold L. Ickes, progressive state chairman. He attended the Presbyterian church in the morning and left at 5:30 in the afternoon for New York. E. M. Parcells has received favorable word from Indianapolis about the condition of his granddaughter, Sarah ONeall, on account of whose serious illness Mrs. Parcells was called to Indianapolis last Wednesday. Sarah is quite a little improved and now practically out of danger. Mrs. Parcells will remain there for a week or so. The trial of Harry Oliver, 27 years of age, who killed his mother at Frankfort, is to begin in that city today. He has -been confined in the Clinton county jail since the crime and on two occasions tried to starve himself to death. He attempted to suicide by cutting his throat with a razor after he had killed his mother. He was taken to the hospital and revived after a week’s treatment. It is exipected that his defense will 'be insanity. O. C. Halstead, whose health has been poor for some time, has decided to go to Hot Springs, at Thermopolis, Wyo., and plans to start there one day this week. He rented his land last fall to Marion Freeland. Since he was taken sick his family has been sadly afflicted, his brother, Will, meeting accidental death and his mother dying after a long illness. It is hoped by all his friends that the change of climate will result in a complete restoration of his health. Oats are locking fine’ all over the country, the cool weather having been favorable for them. The reports concerning wheat are somewhat varied, but are generally favorable. Some corn would probably ‘have been planted this week if the weather had warmed up and there had been no rain. Today there is ~a cold ram, however, and the forecast for much colder tonight does not encourage optimism for farm crops, however. May Ist presents a rather backward condition of the weather.

The Republican was in error recently in stating that both Henry and Benjamin Harris, brothers of Mrs. Virginia Halstead, were older than she. Henry is older but Benjamin Was two years younger, having been 78 years of age the 2nd of April. C. W. Duvall was in Wolcott last week and was at the home of Charles Dawson, 4 miles north of there, and ► relates an interesting story. The barn on the Dawson place was blown down March 21 and a pig was imprisoned in the wreckage.

Leendert Mak was down from Keener township today. He says that a road improvement in Lake county connecting with the Jasper county road past his farm and north from DeMotte is to be constructed this year and when finished will materially lessen the mileage (between here and Chicago and he expects it to be the almost invariably used route when the road is completed. John Burris and wife and little daughter started to the home of Jerry Hess Saturday afternoon where it was planned to hold a family reunion Sunday. On the way out, however, Mrs. Burris became quite sick and her condition soon grew so bad that the affair was postponed. A physician was called and he found that Mrs. Burris would not be able to return to Rensselaer for a week or more and she is remaining with her parent®. iCharles W. Rhoades, the barber, who as assistant fire chief had change of the K. of P. building fire Thursday night, was very sick Saturday and unable to leave his home. While fighting the fire he inhaled a great deal of smoke and this caused him to be sick at the stomach. He was up all day Friday but Saturday his condition became very much worse and was accompanied by considerable fever. Today he is able to be out again but he shows the effects of his sickness and suffering. It was his son, Charles, who was overcome with the smoke at the fire.

Protect Themselves - Against Illness Life Insurance Companies Report Health Policies on the Increase. The fact that health insurance—a form of protection hardly known a few years ago, is increasing year after year has been pointed out as one of the most convincing proofs that Americana are finally coming to recognize the value of health, as (well as its comforts. And it is gratifying to also find greater regard for the laws of health as a natural result of this awakened interest. One little straw which shows which way the wind blows is the report of druggists that the public is turning from the dangerous harsh habit-form-ing laxatives back to old fashioned castor oil, which physicians say is the only laxative that should be used in the home for either children or adults. Castor oil is now put up in a jellied form called Covington’s GASTORTffiTff ~ which is 94 per cent pure case tor oil with a delicious orange flavor added. »• _ _ This new compound on sale at B. r.
