But with each purchase, the buyer was given . proportionate amount of "hooch." Later he came back and bought the "hooch." Then there was the grocer. Ho was an oldfashioned grocer with modern Ideas. CN'ot merely as to prices, either.) Put like the merchant's father knew when h was a boy, this grocer always had a little something to award his customer when he paid bis bill very week. Or two weeks. Instead cf a cigar It was a couple ef "shots" of white mule. Under the influence of th amiable fluid what customer wouldn't over-look a few discrepancies In his bill? Or forget to kick about the prevailing high prices? "Wise grocer. But the "eponge escouade" got him.

PALL OF GLOOM HANGS O'ER IRELAND

(BT DANIEL O'CONNELL.) STAFF CORRESPONDENT I. N. SERV1CEJ DUBLIN, April 11. The possibility of a counter revolution against the Irish Provisional government at Eastertide hangs over all Ireland today like a pall of darkness. This coming Easter will be the sixth anniversary of the famous Iublin uprising when violence swept the city and an Irish Republic was declared.

Roderick O'Conner, formerly chief

engineer of the Irish Republic army and now commander In chief of the

Irish rebels, has established great

headquarters here.

, All of the district commandants

of the mutineers have been sum moned here for a council of war.

EVERYBODY'S

DOING IT These are the days when every

body's fixing up the bus for spring It seems sort of "pepless" after hav

ing carried you through the winter. Although you have painted it all up

so that it looks like a million, it

just naturally doesn't seem to have

the necessary "wlm and wigor."

Of course about the first thing

you think of when this sad state of

affairs Is revealed is that import

ant part of its works the battery. Come to think of it, it Is about time

this organ was receiving a little attention. At once you hasten to the battery station that you believe is best equipped to look it over and prescribe the necessary remedies. The expert battery man that you find there doesn't take long to re-charge it and give it the attention necessary he seems to realize that these fine spring days everybody is anxious to "get along" so ym.i are soon on your way. The bus takes on new life, and feeling the call of the road, you're off. Mr. Durham, local Willrd battery dealer says that at his station they are "all set' for an unusual spring business. The new WUlard AU-Rubber battery has performed so satisfactorily since it was introduced to the motoring public that it has been established as the logical battery to install when spring replacements are necessary.

INTER TROOP CONTEST The last of the series of eight lnter-troop contests which Hammond Boy Scouts have fbeen conduct Ing, will be held Thursday evening at the Lafayette gym. The troops competing are the ones who placed first and second In six previous meets. They are troops 1, 3, 4, 6, 9 and 17. The events will be inspection, maneuvers by troop drill teams, signalling by teams, practical first aid

contests, knot tying by teams and fire by friction. There will also be a cltcus feature a chariot race. All of these troops have measured their strength against one another In previous contests with the exception of troep 9 which has been meeting other troops. For that reason there is an element otf uncertainty as to which troop will place first. ' Lafayette gym is equipped with bleachers and there will be chairs on hand for the ladies. A good turn-out is desired as this will be a fine opportunity to see some very snappy scout work.

White is always Easter's color and here is a lovely fruck for the Easter season made of white crepe knit trimmed with bands of dandelion yellow which have a strip of black down ti e center. The skirt is straight and narrow. The larjr square-shaped caffs on the sleeves and the shoulder cape with it odd throw and collar fastening are distinctive features.

People seem to know that when their car is equipped with an AllRubber they can enjoy the scenery when they go rambling this spring, with no disturbing .thoughts about whether their battery will function or not.
