WHICH BANK

Did you ever look at it this way? ANY bank can take care of your business in easy times, when there is plenty of money— when you have plenty yourself, perhaps—but when money is scarce you will find that some banks can no longer serve you. Then you find that you have to go to the STRONG bank for accommodations.^ Don't you suppose that it would be PRACTICAL for you to give ybur business at all times to the bank that takes care of its customers when, they really need assistance? THINK IT OVER!

KERN 6ETS BIG CROWD III SPITE OF WEATHER

Democrats Parade Main Street Light of Fireworks Opera House Crowded—Kern and Sims Speak.

Senator John W. Kern, of Indianapolis, and Daniel Sims were given a good hearing here Tuesday night, notwithstanding the rain and sudden change in the temperature.

Democrats to the number of two or three hundred paraded Main street, carrying red fire torches and headed by the Greenfield band. At the Columbia Hotel the procession was headed by Mr. Kern and Mr. Sims and they proceeded to the opera house wrhich was soon crowded to its fullest capacity, with standing room occupied.

Mr. Kern, who is well known in this county, was presented by J. E. McCullough and he was given an enthusiastic greeting when he arose to speak. Mr. Kerns' speech was short, as he is wrorn with much work as an attorney and a campaign orator. All parties were represented in the audience, and several ladies were present.

At the conclusion of his speech, Senator Kern introduced Mr. Sims, who is one of the principal Democratic campaign speakers". Mr. Sims spoke at some length on the political issues from a Democratic standpoint.

The K. R. K. held a guest day meeting October 17th, at the home of Mrs. Wm. A. Wood, and seventyfive ladies responded to the little clover leaf invitations. Guests arrived promptly at 2 p. m., and the president, Mrs. Harry Porter, gave an address of welcome, also a short history of the club. The club flower is the clover, the colors pink and green. The work for the year is miscellaneous, and the motto is "Do That Which is Assigned Thee, and Thou Canst Not Hope too Much nor Dare too Much." Miss Carrie Porter gave a violin solo, with Mrs. Harry Porter at the organ. A play entitled "Those Dreadful Drewrs," was given by six ladies, and then a farce by two ladies. Miss Letta Binford sang a solo, followed by a ladies' quartette. The ladies were then invited into the tlining room, which was lighted only by a large burning lamp suspended from the ceiling. The table was spread with a white cloth, festooned with green clover leaves. Bouquets of pink carnations and fern leaves added fragrance and beauty. Mrs.

M. 0. Milbourn, Mrs. A. J. Pope and Miss Carrie Porter served a twocourse luncheon. The first course was sandwiches, baked beans and salad with coffee. The second was white cresents with pink icing, and brick ice cream with a green clover leaf frozen in the center, with clover leaf wafers. Favors of "wish bones" painted green and tied with pink rifrbons, were pinned on each lady w-hen leaving the dining room. This ended the afternoon's program. The members, after voting thanks to Mr. and Mrs. Eshelman for their kindness to the club, arranged to meet with Mrs. Fred Bennett in four weeks.
