CAMPAIGN FOR INDUSTRIAL GROWTH URGED BY EATON COMMERCE DODY

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN. EATON, O.. Jan. 18. The Eaton Commercial club is about to make a campaign for new members. Those who have always been loyal boosters ot this substantial little city are sending up a Macedonian cry for herp. They want to bring "the membership up to Its one time record of 200 contributors and co-workers. New Officers Elected. The annual meeting for the election of officers was held on Thursday night. Every business man was Invited and the club rooms overflowed with visitors. The officers elected were: president. Dr. Riley Spitler; vice president, Wm. Reel; secretary, The secretary was re-elected, the other officers being new men whom It is hoped and expected will put life and

t energy inio we worn oi me organi- ( cfttlnn.

The Eaton Commercial club . has done much for Eaton, according to the following advertised claims In their bid for popular support. They say, for Instance: "This is what we have done for Eaton: We started the court house; we started paved streets; we started the sewer system; we brought the Ernst Nurseries; we brought city letter carriers; we brought a crowd when the boys went to war; we brought gas to the town; we brought a crowd here home coming week; we brought the armory here, and we are bringing a federal building here." Eaton is not an industrial city. The factory whistle never dlsturbns the late sleeper, nor aro labor leaders or strike committees ever In evldonco, in this rich old farm trading center. Many are inclined to let conditions continue as they nro and as they have been for a hundred yean of steady, solid growth. But the greater number of the business men favor the bringing of inrustiial plants. They are not content with a large volumo of Saturday duntrlal plants. They are not conthe idle youth employed and a new start made toward city growth end civic greatnons. The secretary of the Commercial club ntates that a number of propositions are before that body from concerns seeking the advantages new locations may afford in these days of reconstruction. Money Is needed to Investigate and to help when assistance is deserved. "In view of the purposes of our organisation, and its record of achievement, it should not be compelled to plead for support and cooperation, more particularly In a town almost entirely dependent on the fanner." This statement was made by one of the boosters who will assist In the campaign for a larger club, more business every day, and a greater population. The campalen for a largely inTreated membership Is expected to creat the puhllij enthusiasm necessary to an overflowing treasury. The people of Eaton are proud of their home town, and with good reason. A Good Place to Live. If the visitor to Eaton hails from a dry district, where a trip to Eaton is supposed to be purely a quest for "wet goods" he will soon discover that this Is In no senso a "whiskey town." The saloons have not made Eaton nor will they be greatly mourned when the lid goes ou. Eaton is a city of bread, shady streets, and comfortable modern homes. It is a city of good schools, fine churches and of substantial merchants. There is much wealth In Eaton and In Treble County. . The liquor Interests

cut mighty little ice In this community, financially speaking, there are two strong banks here, the Eaton National and the Preble County National, both wideawake and popular institutions and each overflowing with deposits, the largest possibly, in their histories.

Preble County National, 91,827,484.29; Eaton National. $1,231,330.49; a total exceeding $3,000,000, and this- in a town claiming only 3,500 population. Few towns of similar size.

It is the function of the kidneys to filter this acid from the blood and cast It out in the urine; the pores of the skin are also a moans of freeing the blood of this impurity. In damp and chilly cold weather the skin pores are closed thus forcing the kidneys to do double work, they become weak and sluggish and fall to eliminate the uric acid which keeps accumulating"nd circulating through the system, eventually settling In the joints and muscles causing stiffness, soreness and pain called rheumatism.

CAPT. KIMBER WAS READY TO DIE OF CONSUMPTION Doctors Told Him So, But He Is Gaining Strength and Health Tells How.

"My case of tuberculosis was an advanced one, of over five years standing. Was in a tuberculosis hospital for over a year and returned hom worse than when I went. I had to Kive up a grood position in New York City and move up into the Catskill mountains On the advice of my physician. "The doctors said I was ready to die a year ago. I was so weak . I could hardly stand up. : . "I began taking Milks Emulsion last October. I have now taken 18 large bottles and my gain in health and strength has been very steady- I am now able to walk to the village three miles and back, and chop a little wood every day. " ' I "I used to fill a sputum box once a ' day and my cough was continual. Now I do not raise enough to fill a sputum

box in a week. I do not cough any during the day, only when I get up in the morning. "When I first bean taking Milks Emulsion, and for some time after that, I couldn't take a long breath without coughing. Now I can take in draughts of fresh air without any of the previous irritation. I had six hemorrhages prior to last October, but since taking Milks Emulsion I have not spit up a bit of blood and have been practically free from temperature. "I have been treated by thirteen different doctors and had spent all my money trying to find a cure. The doctors all told me that there was no medicine that could do this, so I was vory skeptical about trying even the first bottle of Milks Emulsion. But I waR persuaded to do so by a nurse who told me of two positive cures It had effected in her own family. "Thank God I tried It. I began to feel a beneficial effect only ton hours after I started taking It. I am continuing its use. feeling pretty sure It will effect a cure In my case, as I am steadily Improving. The advanced stage of my disease had arrived before t heard of Milks Emulsion, and this Is making my recovery slower than If I had started taking it a few years sooner." Capt Frederick E.

A DRIVER brought his Clydesdale Truck into the Service Station the other day to have a couple of cracked spark plugs replaced. " Haven't seen you around here much," our service man remarked. " No reason for coming," replied the ariyer. "Do your own repair work?" suggested the service man, just to see what he would say. " Repairs h 1," snapped the driver. " I have been on 'er for 3 months, haven't touched a tool to 'er with the exception of this. Here's my tool kit," and he hauled a pair of pliers out of his hip pocket

This driver seemed to think that his record was unusual. . But this was only average Clydesdale service. Things don't get out of order about a Clydesdale simply because every part and feature of the Clydesdale Truck is designed to stand considerably more strain than it will ever be called upon to endure in service. There isn't a guess or experiment about the truck. Every part and feature has proven itself by from three to ten years

of service on thousands of trucks in the hardest motor truck service in the world. So it naturally follows the Clydesdale Truck runs month after month without getting out of order. Let us explain to you the interesting way in which the durable, dependable design of the Clydesdale Truck was evolved. You can't afford to select new truck equipment, until you know all about the Clydesdale
