WASHOUT FLOODS C REPORTED IN OHIO CITIES AND TOWNS SPRINGFIELD, O., Aug. 23. This city .was without street car service Sunday aa a result of the cloudburst and storm which swept over this section of the state Saturday night, and it may be a week before traffic is restored on the city lines, the result of the power house being flooded. About 10 families, living In the vicinity of the Nelson street bridge, over Buck creek, in the northeastern part of the city, were rescued from their homes by policemen in boats. The water came rushing down on them so rapidly that they had no chance to escape. Many were asleep at the time, and they did not realize their danger until the rushing water poured into their homes. The Ohio Electric Traction line suffered washouts west and north of Springfield. The company was able to operate cars on a special service all day from Columbus to this city. Traffic was resumed on the SpringfieldDayton division late this afternoon. No cars are running between this city and Urbana. Big Four Is Cut Off The Big Four is running south and east. All trains north are sent over the, Twoa-war division to Milford Cen

ter. From that point the trains are detoured to Urbana. mo Jt;rie itoau was hit hard by washouts between Durbln and Urbana. One, passenger train was caught in the road just west of the city and was forced to remain thara tVia ntir nlerht. The Detroit. Toledo and Ironton Road was put out of commission near Tremont City, this county, and all travel north was annulled. Erie trains hi a fnri-sd tn use the Big Four tracks Into this city for at least three days as a result of the damage. Damage west of the city was due, principally, it is alleged, to a bridge on the Peoria and Eastern division of the Big Four Road washing out. It is Bald that this bridge formed a dam and changed the course of the water. Dr. Horace Heistand, living near Abefelda, Buffered heavy loss. HAMILTON, O., Aug. 23. Following heavy rains, the precipitation in two hours having been more than four inches, the tracks of the Cincinnati and Dayton Traction company were washed away early Sunday near Trenton, northeast of Hamilton. At Woodsdale, the Miami and Erie canal broke through its banks in two places, one break having been 20 feet and the other 70 feet in length. As a result of these breaks and the washout, trafic on the traction line wtrs interrupted much of Sunday between Hamilton and Trenton. Owing to the breaks in the canal banks the water supply of the power house of the traction company, on Williams avenue in this city, was shut off and only one dynamo could be operated. A number of cellars are reported to have been flooded. Notwithstanding the rain, the river has risen only a few feet. Considerable damage is said to have been inflicted upon crops by the rains. The Theatres WASHINGTON. As Kitty McCarthy in "Darling Mine," a Selznick comedy drama which will be shown at the Washington theatre for two days starting Wednesday, beautiful Olive Thomas has a role that is particularly suited to her charmins personality. She is seen as the little Irish lassie who brings to America her unlimted capacity for gladness and optimism, straightens out a number of tangled lives and finally, through her own personal sweetness wins for herself a real home and the happiness she Is entitled to. From the moment that Kitty loaves the ship, accompanied by her pet goat, to the final close-up where she has been discovered by her young lover nmong the branches of a lofty tree, there is not a dull moment in this clever picture. Miss Thomas is herself a native of the FnvM-ahl Mo and FOUND RELIEF FROM CATARRH Nose and head stopped up every morning. Drippings from back of nose got stomach irritated. Dreco, the great herbal remedy, gave relief. A famous doctor, writing about catarrh, says "When the nose is stopped up, as by a cold in the head, or when the bad habit of mouth breathing is indulged in, the air we breathe is only partially warmed, moistened, and otherwise prepared for contact with the deeper tissues, therefore, diseases of the throat, windpipe, or lungs are very apt to develop." "I have been a sufferer from catarrh for a long time," says Mr. W. L. Byrum living at 907 Sheridan St., Richmond, Ind. "There seemed to be a constant dripping into my throat from the back of my nose.' Upon rising in the morning my head and nose would be all stopped up, and it would take some time to get them cleaned. My breath nfost of the time was foul, and my breathing was heavy and difficult. I knew of the benefits people were receiving from taking Dreco, so bought a bottle. At the end of the first bottle, I felt that my condition was much improved; on rising I was not nearly so much stopped up; my breath was sweeter, and the dripping much less. I am continuing the treatment and feel that I will get a permanent cure, and do not hesitate to recommend Dreco to any one suffering as I was." Dreco acts directly on catarrhal conditions of the nose, head, throat and stomach, as it is quickly absorbed by the blood and circulated to the affected parts, where its tonic action is soon felt, giving prompt benefit, and, if the use is continued, often affects permanent relief. All good druggists now sell Dreco, and It is highly recommended in this city by Clem Thistlethwaite's seven drug stores. Advertisement.

Among the early scenes of the stirring Pathe serial, "Daredevil Jack," which will be shown at the Murrette Theatre on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday of each week, are some views showing Dempsey, who makes his first appearance as a "Daredevil." And In this case a director was on the Job who could get what he wanted when he wanted it, and Jack Dempsey. clad In the latest thing in football togs, stepped upon the field for his first appearance a3 a knight of the gridiron to find himself in the company of the entire football squad of the University of Southern California, which team, coached by the well known Fred Peters, has a reputation for speed In action and heavy-hitting tactics. The result of this adroit stroke of directorial genius is a series of football scenes which surpass in exciting action anything the screen held previous to its presentation of "Daredevil Jack." MURRAY. Vivian Rich, whose entry Into the film firmament as a William Fox star recently was marked with flattering success, will be the attraction at the Murray Theatre, the first half of the week, In her latest photoplay, "A World of Folly," a society drama. The play tells the gripping story of Helene Blair, whose husband neglects her for his business. When she invites to her home the handsome and unscrupulous Duke Tremaine, polo champion, whom she met when he rescued her two children from peril, the tongue of gossip begins wagging. At the request of her husband Helene notifies Tremaine not to call again. Tremaine, who is affianced to Jeanne, ignores the request and one day forces his way into the house. Helene's husband receives a mysterious telephone call and, when he rushes home, finds Tremaine with hs wife. Tremaine escapes, Blair denounces his wife and a separation follows. Later everything is patched up satisfactorily but only after several sensational scenes. MURRETTE. It wasn't leap year. But the girl knew her own heart. Unfortunately, the man she loved didn't know his. He was a noted doctor and he knew a lot about spines and nerves and things, but nothing about the most fascinating and wonderful thing in the world a woman's heart. He had done about everything he could think of to hurt and humiliate and bruisa the heart of the one woman in all the world who had ever really interested him. An in spite of his cleverness he still remained in dire ignorance of the state of her heart and his own Things were really at a pretty pass. The girl was as proud as Lady Lucifer, proud enough to dare to be humble to him! It takes real pride to dare as much as lovely Katherine Dereham dared. Was he worth it? Well, she thought so. Maybe you will thing so too, when you know all the facts in the case, which will be presented at the Murrette theatre the first half of the week. The play is "A Dark Lantern," the pioture a Realart success, the star is versatile Alice Brady. MAN, RELEASED TO HARVEST CROPS, RETURNS TO JAIL COLUMBUS, Ind., Aug. 23. Louis Romme3, a Brown county farmer, who was serving a 30-day sentence in ths Bartholomew county jail for the theft of a pair of cotton trousers, but was granted a reprieve by Governor Goodrich to harvest his cro re appeared at the jail today and surrendered to Sheriff Damas Essex and resumed serving the 24-day remainder of his sentence. The prisoner owns an 80acre farm in Brown county. How to Beautify a Summer Soiled Face It's really a simple matter to renovate a face soiled by sun, winds or dirt. Ordinary mercolized wax, used like cold cream, will transform the worst old complexion into one of snowy whiteness and velvety softness. It literally perls off the outer veil of surface skin, but so gently, gradually, there's no discomfort. The wornout skin comes off, not in patches, but evenly, in tiny particles, leaving no evidence of the treatment. The younger, healthier under-skln forming the new complexion, is one of captivating loveliness. One ounce of mercollzed wax, to be had at any drug store, is enough to remove any tanned, reddened, pimpled, freckled or blotchy skin. Apply before retiring, washing it off mornings. Many skins wrinkle earily with every wind that blows, with heat, worry, etc. An excellent wrinkle remover, because it tightens the skin and strengthens relaxed muscles, Is a wash lotion made as follows: Povtdered saxolite, one ounce, dissolved in witch hazel, one-half pint. Thi3 gives 1mmp'iate results. Advprtisoment. SPECIAL TODAY NORMA TALMADGE "The Isle of Conquest" CHARLIE CHAPLIN in "Behind the Scenes NEAL HART In "The Fighting Vigilantes"

SHOWERS DO MUCH GOOD TO CROPS IN INDIANA LAST WEEK The weekly crop report of George C. Bryant, field agent of the co-operative crop reporting service for Indiana, is as follows: "Showers were general over the state the first of the week, and did much good to corn and truck crops. Many localities are still very dry. Fall plowing is progressing very well. "Corn is in need of rain in some localities, but generally is in good condition. Some fireing is reported on sandy soils. Early frost would do much damage. "A little spring wheat thrashing has been done. Yields were disappointing. "Oats thrashing is practically completed. Some early sown oats In the northern part of the state made remarkable yields. Satisfactory results were obtained all over the state. Sweet Potato Crop Good. "Potatoes are only doing fairly well. Blight and wilt seem to be the greatest menace. Sweet potatoes are very good. "Local rains have benefitted pastures in many places. Clover seed is being harvested with varying results; acreage about the average. "The tobacco conditions is Improving somewhat, but growth is uneven ?nd worms are very plentiful. "Peaches and pears are now being harvested in all sections with good yields. Apples show no improvement except In orchards that have received the best of care. "All live stcck is in good condition. Feeding operations continue to decline. "Farm labor is becoming more plentiful with the high wages now being paid. "Indiana melons are coming on the market in large quantities. The quality is exceptionally good. "Truck crops show a slight improvement." Farm Sale Calendar Tuesday, August 24 Administrator's sale v the Kayler farm, 3 miles north of Eaton, Ohio.

The Farm and the Farmer By William R. Sanborn Wade Kennedy, of the Greensfork elevator, said Saturday, that so far as he knew, the threshing was all done,! including the last crop of oats. Said they were taking In a few little jags of grain but that things were quiet, except that feed was coming in right along. Asked as to what he had heard from the pooled wool clip he said that so far as he knew not a word had come from the Chicago warehouse men in weeks, and that the wool market was still reported stagnant. Consider the Silo. The time to fill that silo is almost at hand, and, it is just as well to get everything in ship shape in plenty of time. A. L. Haecker, who helped fill the first silo built near Madison, Wis., on his father's farm in 1886, says that Wisconsin now has close to 75,000 silos and that It is still one of the best states in which to sell them. Some men are forever borrowing trouble. Take the labor chief of a Colorado sugar factory. Hear him: "What worries me Is what the farmers are going to do for field labor next year, if they raise sugar beets.' He says he is advising beet growers to hold on to their farm labor all winter; to fix up better quarters and to find something fo the men to do. He should remember that: "Sufficient for the day is the evil thereof." If they have been able to find labor to increase beet production from 20 to 40 per cent in 1920, why worry about 1921? Farm Family of 22. Carl Paulson, wife and 15 children, arrived in New York recently enroute to Minnesota, where he had purchased a 160 acre farm, through a countryman of his, located there.

mark. Labor troubles wjll not disturb conditions on the Paulson farm. Word comes from New York that wholesalers were supplying choice potatoes to the trade at & per barrel, on Saturday. This would seem to be out of line with cost of other food supplies, and rather unfair to growers. To grow a barrel of potatoes, and to handle them from field to cars, means a lot of work. Deducting freight and commission charges from $2 leaves mighty little money per barrel for growers, and they are entitled to more money, in view of the H. C. L. But it is an ill wind that blows nobody good, and we who have been robbed plentifully of late in the buying of potatoes will shed no tears at getting enough potatoes for a "mess" lor a dollar.
