All rights of republication of ! clal dispatches herein are also reserved. A Roosevelt Memorial Here Thousands of citizens recall the memorable address Theodore Roosevelt delivered in Glen Miller park a number of years ago. The eminence on which the distinguished leader spoke to a large outpouring of people later was named Roosevelt Hill. The suggestion has been offered that a natural amphitheatre be created on this slope, with a stone rostrum at its base, to be used as a public gathering place for out of door meetings. Both the location of the amphitheatre and the associations clinging to Roosevelt Hill give emphatic weight to the suggestion. The place is ideal for the construction of an amphitheatre at comparatively little expense. It would be a fitting memorial of Wayne county to remember the life and deeds of the Great American. Col Roosevelt was beloved in this community. His memory is held high, his accomplishments cherished by thousands. A natural amphitheatre in one of the most beautiful scenic spots of eastern Indiana would be a fit tribute to the genius and patriotism of an illustrious leader. He loved the open. Nature had an irresistable charm for him. His writings teem with expressions revealing his understanding of nature in its varied moods. To establish this memorial in Glen Miller park would be a distinct mark of appreciation shown by the community.

No Influenza This Year Military surgeons of the United States say Ihere is no indication of an epidemic of influenza this year. This conclusion was expressed at a convention in St. Louis. This comes as a welcome relief to many who believed the country would be visited by the scourge this winter, and for that reason dreaded the advent of cold weather. Influenza exacted an awful toll in lives and in grief and bereavement. Thousands of homes in this country will remember for many years the winter of 1918-1919. The health authorities of the United States will not be caught unawares this year if the malady should make its appearance. They have been on the lookout for its first manifestations for many month and proper precautions and preventive measures will be taken at once. In the meantime, persons whose minds have been filled with fear should remember that abject terror often is an open invitation to the malady. A susceptible mind is a fertile field for influenza. Almost every physician will tell you that constant fear of a disease predisposes the body to an attack. Keep serene and calm, cheerful and happy. If hitherto you have worried about influenza, take comfort from the assurance that there is no indication now that the plague will visit us this winter.

Good Evening BY ROY K. MOULTON

THE MUSCULAR ERA.

I often lie In bed and think an awful thing Is work How nice it la to push a pen across a desk and shirk! Alas! Alack! the time has come, my visions tke a fall; The pencil-shover's place is fixed and muscle gets it all. When I was young I dreamed too bad! of dignity and wealth How education gets the coin, while labor gets good health! . . . The dope was wrong. Today I find that brawn receives the cash. While I, poor dope, by schooling spoiled, must stint that I may hash. My job is gone, my luck is nil, my room Is now to let, I planted elbows on a desk, and all I raised was debt. Al Franck.

SPAIN NEUTRAL, BUT HEART WITH FRANCE

50,000 Aliens Spread Radicalism According to information which the New York Times obtained of a federal official, 50,000 aliens in the United States are openly or secretly working for a bolshevist form of government and many of the 3,000 newspapers published in foreign languages are supporting the agitators. The most radical papers are printed in the Russian, Hungarian. Lithuanian and Finnish languages. They are regarded as one of the most influential factors in the propaganda which the bolshevists are spreading through the United States. The Times quotes a Russian paper, which prints an article dealing with the activities of the Russians who are spreading bolshevist ideas in the United States as saying that "the struggle for the lifting of the blockade against Russia is Interwoven with our common struggle for the

triumph and fulfillment of Communist Bolshevist j

ideals, for the triumph of the Proletarian Soviet Government idea of the dictatorship of the proletariat, not only in Russia, but the world over." Quotations from other bolshevist papers denounce our government and preach class hatred of the most bitter kind. The whole tenor of the articles quoted by the Times from these anti-

American organs proves that rigorous steps; should be taken immediately to suppress them, j If it was a crime during the war to preach an-j archy and to denounce our country, it is still a I

crime to undermine our institutions and to jeopardize the safety of our government. Insults to the flag and what it stands for should be resented as quickly and effectively as they were a year ago. A round-up of the 50,000 aliens who are so dissatisfied with conditions in this country that they prefer a soviet form of government seems to be necessary. Deportation of the whole lot to the countries from whence they came, or incarceration in our prisons, is in order. An alien has no business to stir up trouble and create unrest in a country to which he has come to better his material condition.

His Children's Comrade One of the most characteristic phases of Col. Roosevelt's life was his devotion to his family and the friendly and kindly interest he took in the development of his children. In the recently published "Letters of Theodore Roosevelt to His Children", we are given an insight into the fatherly devotion of the .statesman to his children. The letters are not filled with didactic admonitions. Neither are they sermons. One finds a loving father writing of family affairs and events near and dear to the hearts of children. Many of the letters are illustrated with drawings. "The point is," says the Kansas City Star, "Roosevelt made himself the comrade of his children. There is no condescension in his letters, even to a 5-year-old. He doesn't write about the same things to young Quentin that he writes of to Sir George Otto Trevelyan. But he writes about things that interest them both. So the children looked to him as their most valued playmate, friend and companion. The parents who can accomplish this relationship have pretty nearly solved the problem of bringing up children." Since Col. Roosevelt's death scores of incidents illustrating the versatility of the man have been printed. Hardly a magazine and periodical that has not printed an article depicting a new phase of his aptitude for varied efforts and duties. The letters to his children bring out a side of his career of which the public had little knowledge.

THE SILENT BUYER. Dear Roy: I claim the title of "champion silent buyer," although I am neither deaf nor dumb. I enter a haberdashery emporium. The salesman says, "Yes, sir." Without a word I choose a necktie from a rack, above which is the cryptic legend, $1. I pay. He says, "Thank you." I depart. You will notice that but four words have been spoken, and not one by myself. I. T. V. They are holding by-elections in England. Over here we spell it "buy."

PARIS, Oct. 20. "Spain was not ! neutral during the war. We could not admit this officially, but it is true." This statement was made today by i Ambassador de Leon, Spain's repre-1 sentative in France, in connection with ' the announcement that King Alfonso ; was on his way from Madrid. I "The King desired to come to the ! aid of France with his army at the be- ', ginning of the war," said the Ambas-1 sador. "He called the French Am-' tas.sador to the palace on the first day of the mobilization and said to him: i " 'You may send to your eastern ! frontier the Eighteenth Corps that j guards the frontier of the Pyrenees. I !

will answer for our frontier." "

The amateur dramatic society had spent many anxious nights in practice ard rehearsal, and at length the great evening that was to show their powers arrived. One of the amat.etirs had found it inconvenient to attend, and his place was takn by an understudy. But, as he was allotted a part with only one sentence, no hitch wa3 expected. He was the headsman. Arrayed in all the glory of black tights and mask, he strode onto the stage, and folding his arms, exclaimed: "My Lord, my lord! I have beheaded the maid!" "Oh, you have, have you?" returned the local butcher, who was taking the part of the cruel king. "Well, then allow me to tell you that you have spoiled the blessed show. You've done it two acts too soon. She came down to breakfast very late and her mother scanned her severely. "Did that man kiss you last night?" she asked. "Now, mother," said the sweet young thing, blushing, "do you suppose he came all the way from the Great Lakes to hear me sing"

Using the same text he used in his first sermon in Richmond 13 years ago, the Rev. S. W. Traum, former pastor of the First Christian church of this city, preached in that church Sunday morning. He was greeted by a large audience of his former admirers. The Rev. and Mrs. Traum who left Richmond six years ago are now in Meadeville, Pa., in a mission church where they are doing county wide work. Miss Wilhelmia Traum, their daughter is now a student in Allegheny College. Russel Joy representing the Christian Endeavor of the church, gave an interesting address on the Life of Roosevelt at the Americanization Day service Christian church Sunday evening. Joy spoke especially about the patriotism honesty, and character of Roosevelt, and the fact that he was able to live a life wheih was absolute

ly above reproach or suspicion.

WASHINGTON, Oc. 20. These are dark days for Washington men who value their domestic happiness. Somewhere at large in the capital ia a woman with a little old last year's sense of humor, who has been calling prominent men on the phone. And when Mrs. Prominent Man answers the call, the funny little woman 6ays: "Mercy! Why. he never told me he was married." So that is why so many Washington husbands are wearing a weary look.

BELGIUM RECOVERING: INCOME EXCEEDS HER EXPECTATIONS

BRUSSELS, Oct. 20 Treasury receipts for the first 7 months of 1919 exceeded government estimates by more than 10,000,000 francs, the total received being 421,000,000 francs. Further steps to free trade have been taken by the government in the establishing of the rule requiring certeficates of origin for all automobiles, foodstuffs and cutlery imported.

If Constipated, Bilious or Headachy, take "Cascarets"

Sick headache, biliousness, coated tongue, or 60ur, gassy stomach always trace this to torpid liver; delayed, fermenting food in the bowels. Poisonous matter clogged in the intestines, instead of being cast out of the Eystera is re-absorbed into the blood. When this poison reaches the delicate brain tissue it causes congestion and that dull, throbbing, sickening headache. Cascarets immediately cleanse the stomach, remove the foul gases, take the excess bile from the liver and carry out all the constipated waste matter and poisons in the bowels A Cascaret tonight will surely straighten you out by morning.

COME NOW THE FARMERS From the Chicago News.

THOUGH farmers are not adequately represented at j the Washington Industrial conference, the small ; group that speaks for those hard working millions ,

of producers has submitted a 6et of demands that is likely to challenge wide attention. Those among the labor r;roup who are Inclined to support extravagant claims made on behalf of the wage earners might consider the farmers' case with special profit. The farmers demand such returns for their products as will fairly compensate them for "their Invested capital, tneir technical skill, their managerial ability and their manual labor." They also demand opportunities, social, educational and other, equal to those enjoyed by persons engaged in other industries. There is, of course, nothing extravagant in these demands. Yt. when reduced to concrete terms, what do i bey involve? Can the farmers obtain an eight bour day :ind a forty-four hour week? Can they have a minimum it-turn guaranteed them by law? Union labor asks these tilings. To the farmer they are manifestly out of the iiuestion. Indeed, the farmer is the first to feel the effect of the return to rwrmal after a period of Inflation. The alleged 25 per ceut reduction in the prices of foodstuffs announced by Attorney-General Palmer has escaped the attention of the consumers, but it is a fact that the price of hogs is failing and has sunk already to a level unknown since .914. It Is a fact that the farmers are seriously complaining of the losses they are sustaining and-the heavier losses that will confront tnem. especially after the expiration next spring of the period during which the pres

ent legal minimum price of wheat remains In effect. Wage workers are striking and also extending and perfecting their organizations the more effectually to protect their interests. The farmers cannot strike or even successfully combine, except for limited purposes. How is "economic justice" to be secured to them? And if it cannot be secured to them, have they not a real grievance against discriminatory legislation and special privitges for other elements? What will the Washington conference suggest to the farmers? Their situation shows how necessary it 13 that ;)il elements of the country's population work together wjth intelligent regard for the common good.

GETS 28 EGGS A DAY NOW, FROM 34 HENS

COMIC OPERA DAYS AT FIUME From the Dayton News. Judging by reports that have been cabled from Fiume, Gabriele D'Annunzio's special comic opera kingdom, these are days of real life in that city. There is plenty to eat, plenty to drink and plenty of places to srend money. The Italian blockade of the port is a blockade in name only and has not seriously crippled the community. Americans, of course, are cordially hated by the people of Fiume, who look upon this country aa having betrayed Italy and made necessary this seizure by the flier-poet. D'Annunzio goes about the streets like some supercitizen, challenging the whole world to wrest his power irom him. There are sounds of revellers by night and marching soldiery by day to kill dull care in Fiume. What an admirable setting for Oscar Strauss to tune his lyre and give to the comic opera world another "Chocolate Soldier."

Chas. C. White, Well-Known Breeder, Tells How. Costs Nothing to Try. "I gave Don Sung to 34 utility Euff Orpingtons and the egg yield increased from 1 to 28 a day.

NOTHING like following up a good show with a good smoke Chesterfield. No ordinary cigarette, this. Mellow as an old friend, but rich with flavor the kind that goes right to the spot. Our own buyers in the Orient select for us the choicest Turkish leaf. We blend with this several varieties of specially selected Domestic tobacco. This blending by a secret method brings out new qualities of flavor that other and less expert methods fail to find. That's what we mean by "satisfy" an entirely new kind of smoking enjoyment that you get in Chesterfields only nowhere else; for the blend is a closely guarded secret. It can't be copied.
