SOME TOWN, OUR TOWN; JUST LOOK AROUN’

planting, and border plants will be put out within a few days -and other plants in succession. The plan to make a lagoon on each side of the concrete bridge connecting the west side with the old cemetery is to be carried out as fast as funds are available. The new addition r .o the cemetery is being made very attractive and many lots have been sold there and a number of graves have already been made in it. The terraces show a careful landscaping and the entire arrangement is commendable. Over to the south side of the old cemetery the underbrush has been cleared away, a river drive built and a number of lots sold. To complete the work there will be much filling to do and the dirt derived from the making of the lagoon will be used for the filling. If some person was charitably inclined they could make a donation to the cemetery and feel just pride in the manner of aid they had given to Rensselaer. Probably one of the. best things that Rensselaer ever did was to indulge in the extensive street macadamizing of nine or ten years ago. The result is passable streets in all parts of town. The new brick street, our fine lighting system and the wisdom displayed some years ago in building a fine court house all show the substantial attitude of our public servants in making improvements anc almost make one forget that taxes are a bit high. In conclusion let us remark that Rensselaer is some town, SOME TOWN, and we are going right to the front all the time and while we’ve run out of poetry and wouldn’t sing if we had to, we still feel almost happy enough to shout: “Hurrah for Rensselaer.”

Mrs. I. W. Porter Writes Letter From Dinuba, Cal.

In renewing their subscription to The Republican Mrs. I. W. Porter writes as follows from Dinuba, Cal.: “Enclosed find a postoffice money order for another year’s subscription to your paper. It always finds a place on our reading 'table. Mr. Porter is not very well this spring but he keeps doing light work and we are getting along fine. We are looking forwarc to a visit from John Greenfield anc wife, who now live at San Diego, Cal. Mrs. Greenfield is my cousin and has written they will probably start about the 9th of May to visit us, coming via Bakerfield, where they will attend the soldiers’ encampment and then coming on to visit us. We are having fine weather and everything is looking excellent. We are glad to hear from the old Hoosier state.” "

RENSSELAER MAN’S LUCKY FIND

Will Interest Readers of The Republican. Those having the misfortune to suffer from backache, urinary disorders, gravel, dropsical swellings, rheumatic pains, or other kidney and bladder disorders, will read with gratification this encouraging statement by a Rensselaer man. s - Joseph Smith, retired farmer, Van Rensselaer St., Rensselaer, says: "I have had weak kidneys for years and have spells when I need something to tone them up. Then my back becomes stiff and sore. I have to get up or down very carfeully because of the pain that catches me there. My kidneys also don’t act right. The kidney secretions are scanty and scalding in passage. I feel weak and tired. I then use Doan’s Kidney Pills and they always give me great relief.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills —the same that Mr. Smith had. Foster-Milburn Co., Props., Buffalo, N. Y.

Specialty On Panama Hats.

Society Notes

(Mrs. E. W. Kanne and Mrs. Joseph Luers will jointly entertain the Catholic Sew Club at the home of the former Thursday.

The last meeting for the year of the Monnett Guild was held Monday afternoon at the school. Miss Simpson, the superintendent, in her remarks of thanks and appreciation, said that this organization, composed of women of all the denominations, who are interested in the welfare of the school, have been a source of great help to those who have the affairs of this institution in charge. Mrs. Ross Dean is president, Mrs. E. C. English, secretary, and Mrs. Wm. Bringle, treasurer. Through the contributions and work of the Guild it has been possible to rrifeet all the household expenses of the school. At this meeting sixteen window curtains and ten towels, two dresser scarfs and some minor articles were made. Plans for the parcel post sale to be held June 10th were perfected. The Guild would be glad to receive contributions for this sale from every lady who is interested in the success of the Monnett School. The articles donated may be faaeywork, household articles, wearing apparel or what not, worth 10c or 25c; that is, that is the amount at which each article will be sold. They may be worth more, to be sure. It is hoped that the donors will inderstand that it is only the money realized from the sale of these articles and not the articles themselves that will be used by the school. This means is taken to give ample notice that all who wish to contribute may have ample time in which to prepare their donations. The place of holding the sale and other details will be given later.

Mrs. L. A. Harmon was hostess to the Home Economics club Saturday. This club has increased in membership very rapidly in the past year, having a membership at present of nearly fifty. The aim of the arganization is not only to gain informatiori along the line suggested by its name, but to promote a more friendly and co-operative spirit between the ladies of the town and country. This it has succeeded in doing in a very satisfactory way. The members responded to roll call by telling the way in which they had been most benefited by belonging to the club. Mrs. Myers read a paper on “The Care of the Bathroom,” and there was a round table discussion on Household Pests and How to Get Rid of Them. This club is now federated and two communcations were discussed that concerned questions that are being presented to all federated clubs. The first was the subject" of the public park system for the state. Each club is being asked to help in a movement to secure spots of scenic or historic interest for preservation and use as public pleasure grounds. The first of these is Turkey Run, which is one of

the most beautiful scenic regions of the central west, located about 60 miles west of Indianapolis, in Parke county. The park site includes camping and parking grounds of forty acres with hundreds of stately forest trees, many of which are over 400 years old. Unless it is obtainedby th State Park Committee it will be bid in May 18th by private timber companies, which will cut the magnificent trees and ruin the place for park purposes. The entire plot comprises 288 acres and a pioneer house of brick finished throughout in rich black walnut wood and floored with yellow poplar is located on the estate. The park system of which this will be the beginning is to be a permanent memorial of the centennial year which iHoosiers will give to the coming generations. The other communication was an appeal to the club to express its willingness to help the government in its work for the immigrant by lifting the name of its president and secretary in the office of the commissioner of immigration. Whenever an immigrant family arrives in port destined to a town represented by one of these clubs, the immigration service will mail to that club the names and addresses of the admitted family of immigrants. The immigration department believes that if the women interest themselves in aiding immigrants to receive the benefits of both the local and federal laws and in enabling the immigrants to come in touch with the better elements of our national life, great good will follow. While this wlil perhaps be of greater helpfulness, it is possible to do some work in this direction in smaller communities. The card club was entertained Monday evening at the Oren Parker home on River street, Mesdames H. F. Parker and J. J. Hunt assisting. The sew club calendar for Thursday p. m.: Original Sew Club, Mrs. )E. N. Loy; younger Sew Club, Mrs. C. H. Mills; Priscillh Sew Club, Mrs. E. T. Harris. The Girls’ Card Club was entertained Monday night at the home of Miss Mary Brown. K E. Jones, head of the educational department of . Northwestern University, will be a guest of Supt. and Mrs. Dean next Saturday and will address the teachers of the public schools at their last institute for the year.
