ESSAYS ABOUT CORN CONTESHOUR II County Agent's Office Flooded With Work of Farmer Boys.

Every part c. Va,ne' county was represented in the tlocd of corn esay, entered in the Paiiadium contest for free tripe to the Purdue Farmers Short course at Lafayette next week, coming Into the office of Agent A. D. Cobb today. The mail today was the heaviest since ths opening of the contest. Essays postmarked midnight and received tomorrow, will bo accepted, as the contest closes at 12 o'clock. The judging of the papers has become more difficult the last few days. Agent Cobb says, since many of them contain every ida which could be brought out in a 200 word e6say. Originality and style of writing will enter largely in the final decision of the papers to which will be awarded the prisea. tvery school in the county has heard of the contest and almost every boy desiring to be one of those to secure free trip for the week to the bhert course, has written an essay. Farmers Interested. All the essays do not come to the office of 51 r. Cobb, however, as in many cases, they are graded in the schools, only those receiving hish grade submitting their papers to the county agent. The contest has not only aroused the enthusiasm of the boys, but of farmers as well. This year, twenty-five have signified their intention of farming a delegation to let farmers from other parts of the state know that Wayne county is "on the map."

CLEAR DECK FOR ACTION BAVIS

ed a petition for the construction of a sewer system in the park and territory contiguous lying south of North J street and east of North Fourteenth

DRUGS EXCITE YOUR KIDNEYS, USE SALTS If Your Back is Aching or Bladder Bothers, Drink Lots of Water and Eat Less Meat.

When your kidneys hurt and your back feels sore, don't .get scared and proceed to load your stomach with a lot of drugs that excite the kidneys and irritate the entire urinary tract. Keep your kidneys clean like you keep your bowels clean, by flushing them with a mild, harmless salts which removes the body's urinous waste and stimulates them to their normal activity. The function of the kidneys is to filter the blood. In twenty-four hours they strain from it 500 grains of acid and waste, so we can readily understand the vital importance of keeping the kidneys active. Drink lots of water you can't drink too much; also get from any pharmacist about four ounces of Jad Salts; take a tablespoonful In a glass of water before breakfast each morning for a few days and your kidneys will act fine. This famous salts Is made from the acid of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia and has been used for generations to clean and stimulate clogged kidneys; also to neutralize the acids in urine so it no longer is a source of irritation, thus ending bladder weakness. .Tad Salts is inexpensive; can not ir hire; makes a delightful effervescent ":rr:a-water drink which every one v.i'd take now and then to keep '--o.v kidneys clean and active. Try this, also keep up the water drinking, and no doubt you will wonder what became of your kidney trouble and backache.

street. If the construction of such a sewer system in its entirety at one i time was too much of an undertaking the petition requested the construction of the sewer by sections. Mr. Jordan said the sewer was necessary for many of the sixty-five purchasers of lots at the park planned to build there -next summer. This matter was referred to the city engineer for plans and estimates. A resolution for the opening and widening of West Sixth street was given first reading. When a resolution calling for an improvement on North Tenth street was brought up Mr. Bavis asked delay in its consideration. He said that the budget only provided $12,000 for public improvements this year, exclusive of $4,000 appropriated for the widening of North Third street. Consideration on the videning of that street was also postponed. The board decided to delegate its authority of employing and discharging city employes to the heads of the various departments, with the exception of the fire and police chiefs. In the fire department the law provides that such function must be assumed by the board, but the board of works will get around this by acting on the fire chief's suggestions along this line. The police commissioners have the authority to employ and discharge members of that department. j Bavis Versus Bond City Attorney Bond suggested that the board was exceeding its authority in delegating such powers to the heads of departments and that such a rule could only be established by the heads of departments themselves at a cabinet meeting. He also said that it might be well to postpone such action until the civil service question had been disposed of. "No one will welcome more than myself the day civil service for the appointment of city employes is established," declared Mr. Bavis, "but until that time this rule permitting chiefs the authority they are entitled to will stand." Mayor Robbins also declared that the rul met with his approval, in fact, it was he who had suggested it. He said that it handicapped the chief of a department to hold him responsible for the affairs of his department if his hands were tied by not having full control over his subordinates. So the rule stands, even though some red tape had to be broken in establishing it. Another Change. Charles W. Jordan, treasurer of the school board, appeared before the board and made a suggestion that the school city and the city governmjprr join hands in the future in the purchasing of coal on the heat unit instead of on the tonnage basis. This suggestion was most favorably received by the board and a careful investigation to determine some practical plan along this line will be made. Mr. Bavis suggested that if the coal purchased did not come up to the required heat unit standard, the contracting companies should make up the loss; if the coal purchased exceeded the specified heat unit standard the city and the school city should reimburse the companies for the additional amount. Mr. Bavis took occasion to say that a heat unit standard should have been incorporated in the natural gas franchise. He also agreed with Mr. Jordan, who said the school board had been "hit hard" on coal purchased last year, that both the school city and the city government would be well repaid far the cost of making heat unit tests of coal No trouble was anticipated in securing bids on the heat unit basis. Each year the city purchases about $10,000 worth of coal and the school hoard expends about $5,000 for this fuel. No insurance on the public buildings can be taken out until an appropriation for the premiums has been made by council, but the board today passed a motion to the effect that it favored insurance on such buildings. Council will he asked to make an appropriation after the required amount has been ascertained from the information presented by the insurance companies. Mayor Robbins placed much emphasis on the necessity of insuring public buildings, declaring that so long as they were not insured he and the board members would be held strictly accountable for any losses. "The public clamor against us would probably be so great that we would probably he driven out of the city," he said.

men is to imagine that they can act out on their lives the part useful and exemplary citizens without embodying corresponding traits of character within themselves. "The first requisite of real success is nobility of character. The hearts of men far more than the heads or hands of men have -shaped history. Multitudes of young men make a failure of life because the elements of success, a noble character, is not within them. "In order to build such character you must choose carefully the companions with whom you associate. There is no difference more powerful either for good or bad than friendship. Nothing tells on us more than our choice of companions. Any one can mould the life of our young men and women if he could chose their companions. Keep Good Friends. "Youth is clay for whatever potter may put it upon the wheel. We take the color of the society we keep. Never form sudden friendships, nor break off tried ones lightly. Remember that a companion means a copy, consciously or unconsciously for you would not go with one yu would not admire for something. I-et acquaintance be one thing, intimacy another. "To succeed go with people larger than yourself larger in thought, in desire, in ambition, in influence and in character. "You are large or small, you are a success or a failure, largely as to where you are? The where you are decides much as to what you are. The little country squire, in a little country town, is about the biggest man in town but let the same country squire walk down State street in Chicago and it will only take him a couple of blocks to get the squire knocked out of him. "One of the most destructive impressions that has ever obtained lodgement in the popular mind is the belief that a man to be respected and successful must be a lawyer, a doctor, a banker or a great merchant. 1 would rather that my boy should become a shoemaker and put genius into the shoes he makes than be a preacher, preaching sermons which nobody wants to hear. Choose Right Work. "You must choose your life's work. In other words 'Get on the Right Track.' There can be no greater mistake than to bend your design where your genius does not incline. "Father do not try to make that boy another you one of you will do. "You may know when you have found the right place if your work is a pleasure to you, if you long for the time to quit, you are on the wrong job; if you go to work with no more

delight than you left it, the job belongs to some other man. "Persistent, concentrated work is ever the price of success. Success 1b too often looked upon as the result of genius and luck. Genius is greatly over-estimated and luck comes to but few. "There are four sides to your young lives to be developed. The intellectual, the physical, the social and the religious. If the latter is neglected then your life is Incomplete. "You need not be ashamed of Jesus Christ. President Wilson, vice-president Marshall, all the members of the cabinet and Supreme Court are earnest Christians and are glad to pay a visit to the shrine of Jesus Christ." Evangelist Honeywell closed with an appeal to the youths to take their stand for Christ at some time during the meeting saying that "Success is not obtained without the aid of Christ." Tonight's sermon "Nuts for the Skeptical to Crack," is expected to be the paramount of the revival series. A male quartet has been invited to sing in the evening service. A mixed double quartet sang an appreciative song at last night's meeting. The singing of the choir was also a feature of the evening's program. Special stress was laid upon the Working and Business Women's banquet in the Reid Memorial church, tonight at 6 o'clock. Every woman In Richmond who is working for a wage is invited to attend this affair. It Is being planned to have the attenders of the supper to attend the service in the tabernacle in a body. Today's program consisted of cottage prayer meetings at 10 o'clock in the morning. The afternoon service at. 2:15 o'clock in the-tabernacle. At 3:15 o'clock Miss Lamont'8 Bible class. The? evening service will start at 7:15 o'clock. The high school orchestra furnished the music for last evening's service. Miss Cates sang a solo accompanied by the orchestra.
