ONE WOMAN TO ANOTHER

Doesn't it seem quiet after the Fourth, the fight and the motor races? For my part I'm glad it's all over, because I hardly had time to give styles a thought in the midst of it. I thoroughly enjoyed myself yesterday afternoon viewing the latest coiffures in the Hair Store at L. S. Ay res & Co. You know this is reception week and every new idea in hair dressing ie presented. And such a wide array of beautiful hair I never before saw—switches, puffs, curls, braids, transformations, in every conceivable shade of blonde, gray, auburn and black. Puffs seem to be the most favored and I think are the most charming of all hair creations. I noticed pretty clusters for as little as $1.95.

There was never a town which had more 'knockers'' in proportion to her population than Greenfield has. If ehe sustains herself in spite of the many assaults, and she will, she will demonstrate her genuine vitality. Greenfield is a good town, and all the negligence and knocks of her citkens can't kill her. Of course she would be a better and a more lively little city if every citizen was doing something to boost her, bat she will continue to hold her place among the substantial county seats of Indiana •whether her people make any special effort in her behalf or not. Green-

field is "no mean eit.y," and she is

better than many of the citizeiis: who attempt to injure her, reputation. There are other good towns,, find] while we would like lor G^nfield not otiiy to retain all the people .the mowhwi, and sicure many

r: 'A'

still we do not know of any strings being on any of the knockers in Greenfield preventing them from going to such towns, if they think Greenfield is a dead one.

The development of so much corruption among high officials in legislative and municipal offices has tended to destroy the confidence that the people had in their public officials. A lack of confidence will result in a lack of respect. The people have not only lost confidence but they are becoming convinced that where flagrant wrongs exist in official circles, and crimes of enormous proportions have been perpetrated, the guilty parties are screened and protected by the very persons who should aid in their conviction. This is especially the case in high official positions. The The people feel that an officer who violates the law and becomes corrupt is a much worse criminal than the layman who violates the law. The people are fast concluding that they are being trifled with.

There is plenty of work on the farm now. The man out of a job can get a good one there. If anyone is idle now it is his own fault. A farmer said a few days ago that he "wanted men to work on his farm. He said he found a Greenfield man wanting work and gave him a job and told him he would like to have him work for him for several weeks. The man worked for two days and a half, then got his pay Saturday night and did not show up again. That is only one case of many. There are many men who will not work when they have a few dollars in their pocket. That is why the public has to take care of them in the winter.

We care not where party bias exists in official life it is wrong, and always expensive to the people. There is not exception to the rule. It is wrong in the Republican party, it is wrong in the Democratic party. It is wrong in National affairs, in State affairs, in county affairs, in city affairs. It is wrong in Washington City, in Indianapolis, in Marion county, in Hancock county, and the people regardless of party are in temper to repudiate it no matter where found.

Walter G.Bridges, who retired from the postmastership the first of this month, made a most excellent record. It is said by those in position to know that only one other postmaster in the Sixth district had as good a record as Mr. Bridges, and that is the retiring postmaster at Richmond. On the records at Washington Mr. Bridges is classed with the highest standard postmaster. He would make a good third assistant postmaster general, and we are for him.

There is no letup to the sale of automobiles. The auto is becoming more popular each.day. It is living down the predjudice by proving its general utility. It is working its way into scorse of homes of Hancock county, and the demand increases until local agents can scarcely supply it.

Flying machines may become as common as automobiles in time, and people may have to be as mueh on their lookout lest one drops down on them, as they are now, lest an automobile runs them down.

The Fourth of July is the greatest purely National holiday that the Americans have. It is the real biTth of the United States as a nation, and as a National day it will endure as long as the Nation exists.

Big Buying Makes Little Prices....

Big selling makes little profits big enough. I am proving it over and over every day. Have I proven it to your satisfaction yet? The proof is here. START RIGHT. That's my advise to young couples just beginning housekeeping. Don't put a dollar into anything that isn't of the highest quality that you can afford to buy. Better a little and good than much and inferior. 1 am giving a special discount of 10 per cent, on all cash sales for the next 30 days. My prices have been low, but now is bargain time if you need anything in my line. Now is the time for you.
