- - ' , , ie4hat civic spirit is dead in Richmond. - The present response is only illustrative of a spirit that has characterized this community for generations back. Given any task to perform, and its citizenship has executed it in a praiseworthy manner. The war record of the city and county is one of the best in Indiana. Its Red Cross activities belie any insinuation that the community is deaf to appeals for a manifestation of its love for the stricken and needy.

Richmond is not a city t6 be stampeded into

hysterical action. It takes its own time to study a problem and to apply a method of solution. Because it does its work with efficient calmness, it accomplishes its aims with effectiveness.

The Armistice Day subscriptions are potent proof of the observation. The work was done without resorting to flamboyant and noisy demonstration. Thoroughly in accord with the principles of the celebration, the citizens responded nobly. ' The consummation -of thi civic spirit, of which Richmond has been proud for many generations and which has been the envy of many of our neighbors, will be seen on Armistice Day. Few cities in Indiana have seized' the opportunity of celebrating this day in the patriotic manner outlined here. Richmond will be in a class by itself.

"Deadwood Dick" was a Nickname given to Robert Dickey (1840 1912). whose actual adventures formed the basis of many dime novels, which filled the imaginations of callow youth In 1860-1880.

sheriff, he has had p. checkered career in high finance. He has operated on the theory that it is easier to make money by shady transactions than by straightforward and legitimate means. His incarceration proves the folly of his own theory, eveji if it has not succeeded as yet in restoring to his victim the note, secured by a mortgage on his farm. In this case, the purchaser of the worthless stock perhaps may regain his money. If he does, he will be one of the few who have escaped. Every well wisher of the community hopes the present instance will be a warning to investors to slam the door in the face of salesmen who wish to dispose of unsound and highly speculativesecurities. The market offers seasoned, sound and safe securities. Regularly established agencies and banking concerns will make the sales. The buyer need not fear that he will be swindled, because the reputation of both the institution and the salesman are behind the transaction. Why give attentive ear to the promises of strangers, connected with speculative ventures and bent on robbing you of your money? Why disregard the advice of your banker, or of the representative of an established firm dealing in

Today's Talk By George Matthew Adams

TREES I shall never get over loving trees. I used to like to climb them. I like to climb them yet! There seems to-me to be every human characteristic about trees except that of animation. And yet in their very silence, the trees seem to have a language all their own. They mother and father the birds snd small animals of the forest. They shelter our bodies when we are caught by the rain in thoir midst, and they give to the beasts of the field their best companion. And when they are grown great, men come with axes and saws, and the tree gives up its life that homes may be built, cities furnished and boats be made to float the seas and make all nations as one. Human happiness owes more to the trees than to any other gift of Nature. What character in a gnarled old oak! And what majesty to the towejf ing redwood of the Pacific coast as it climbs hundreds of feet toward the sky! What a lot of pathos in the standing dead tree as it holds its arms out into the air perhaps with but a single bird sharing its grief. I always want to get out of a town quickly which has but few trees.

Trees have always- brought happi- j r.ess and cheer. How gorgeous 'they j

are at this Autumn time! Their myriad colors against the sun remind one of the hidden beauty of the opal ever changing before the face of the liht. Trees keep giving without talking about it!

him on the shoulder, "you just attend to your driving. It don't look like rain, nowhow, but -if it should, I'll let you know." "Lydia, I was very corry to read that your husband had been arrested and sent to jail for quarreling with you," said Lydia's employer. "It must have been an extremely unpleasant experience." "Yes, ma'am," replied Lydia; "it was an unpleasant experience.. But I'm glad he got dat month in jail." "Why, Lydia, how can you be glad?" " 'Cause he need it, ma'am, to recomstruct hisself in."

Rippling Rhymes By WALT MASON

v . J THE SPEED FIENDS In vain I stand protesting to speed fiends as they pass; they seem to think I'm jesting, and give their boats more gas. The coroner is busy, he's checking up the dead, run down, by truck or lizzie or auto painted red. The coroner is weary, he toils by day and night; his task is sad and dreary, and there's no end in sight. The village cops are chasing the fiends o'er hill and dale, and after bitter racing they put a few in jail. And then they're fined so lightly they think it

all a joke, and leave the courtroom brightly, and make their autos smoke. Through highways residential, through traffic's busy marts, with ardor pestilential they run their deadly carts They wing the fleeing baker, they maim the frightened clerk, and now the undertaker gets in his grewsome work. The doctor's nerves are busted, so many victims yelp, the coronor's disgusted, and wildly calls for help. And still the crazy motors go rushing through the town, and slay the adult voters, and mow the children-down. And when I stand protesting the speed fiends score my rhyme, and jauntily go questing for some one they can climb.

Thorough preparations were being made by ministers of the city in the interest of a union "revival service to be conducted by 18 churches of Richmond. Those that were' to take part included the First, Grace and Fifth Street Methodist, Episcopal, First, Second and United Presbyterian, United Brethren. First Christian, East Main Street, South .Eighth Street, West Richmond and Whitewater Friends churches, First Baptist, First, Second and St. Paul's Lutheran and Bethel A. M. E. churches. Mr. and Mrs. Charles E. Shlvely of South Fourteenth street, were to have Judge and Mrs. R .1. Tracewell, of Washington. D. C, as guests. Judge Tracewell was controller of the United States treasury.

Your Kidnoys Occasionally If You Eat Meat Regularly.

No man or woman who eats meal regularly can make a mistake by flushing the kineys doccasionally, says a well-known authority. Meat forms uric acid, which clogs the kidney rores so they sluggishly filter or strain only part of the waste and poisons trom the blood, then you get sick. Nearly all rheumatism, headaches, liver troubles, nervousness, constipation, diziness. sleeplessness, bladder disorders come from sluggish kidneys. The" moment you feel a dull ache in your kidneys or your back hurts, or if the .urine is cloudy, offensive, full of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of scalding", get about four ounces ,tf Jad Salts from any reliable pharmacy and take a table-spoonful in a glass of water just before breakfast for a few days nd your kidneys will then act fine.

grapes and lemon juice, combined with; lithia, and has been. used, for genera-1

tions to flush clogged kidneys and slimplate them to activity, also to neutralise the acids in urine so it no longer causes irritation, thus ending bladder, disorders, ,.--;'V ' .

Mr. Baker got great relief himself from the root and herb remedy, Dreco, so gave it to her, and now she is full of life; romps and plays. "I got so much good from taking Dreco that I put my little five-year-old girl to taking it and there is a big difference in her now," said Mr. Willis Baker, the well known contractor of 1318 East Marklin St., Kokomo, Ind. "1 had never been able to get ria of constipation, pains in my back, indigestion, gas in my stomach and heartburn, till I tried this medicine Dreco and I believe the first dose did rne good. Dreco also worked my liver off, thereby relieving those awful dizzy spells and cleared off my tongue.

"I had catarrh which kept me hawking all the time and clearing my throat. Dreco overcame this for me, and I started my little girl taking it and there is a big improvement in her. The color has returned to her cheeks, she romps and plays, has a good appetite and the catarrh is all gone. I am a strong believer in Dreco." Dreco acts on the liver in a smooth,

gentle manner, gradually working off

the excess bile day by day. It is not strong or harsh and does not excite

the muscles as strong cathartics do It tones up the digestive organs and relieves gas on the stomach, puts an end to constipation, increases the appetite, gives strength to weak kidneys, restores sound sleep and tired nerves. Dreco is a great blood purifier and system cleanser. All druggists now sell Dreco and it is being especially introduced in Richmond by Clem Thistlethwaite's seven drug stores. Advertisement.

It will be a very sweet hour, indeed, when we can sit down to a beefsteak and have a clear conscience when we can sit down to a steak and know we are not taking it away from starving Europe, and thereby helping break the heart of the world. Somehow it has always seemed to us that it is well-nigh impossible to break the heart of the world. It is a tough old world with a tough old

Straight Run

Because Silver Flash is a high test, straight run fuel, it will put youthful pep in cars that have become sluggish. Fill the tank with Silver Flash and the engine will start . early and run smoothly. . " You'll thrill at the way the car responds to the lightest touch! of the accelerator, and you'll always have power when you want it most for the emergency sprint and on steep hills and in heavy going. Silver Flash costs a little more than less efficient gasoline, but it is far more economical, not alone because a gallon will carry you farther, but also because the smooth performance that Silver Flash gives saves repair bills and minimizes depreciation.

As this message is being written, Dodge Brothers' daily, weekly and monthly production, is at the highest point in its history. The most casual sort of inquiry will satisfy you that this production is being absorbed as it is delivered. Within sight and sound as we write, a great addition to Dodge Brothers' immense works, is being rushed to completion. The interesting thing about this situation is, that it is not likely that a half a hundred people have ever bought Dodge Brothers Motor Car just because they wanted a motor car. Of the more than half a million who have bought it the overwhelming majority did so because of the name it bore. It has always been treated, by the American people in particular, as an exception always set apart, and singled out, and never judg-;d by ordinary standards. It has always been thought of, and is still thought of, first, and foremost, and all the time, only in terms of its goodness, and the results it gives. All of this is wonderful, in one way, and quite natural and logical in another. It all dates back to the day when John and Horace Dodge conceived and designed and finally built the car after warning each ether, and their associates, not even to thi..4c of it in any other terms than the best obtainable value. They began with a few almost absurdly simple principles, bluntly expressed and rigidly executed, abc;:t decency and honor and integrity

such as most of us wrote in our copy books at school. They reduced these old copy book maxims to a splendid and scientific system, pouring more, and more, and still more value into the car, and then marshalling all the resources of modern massed manufacture to get their product into the hands of the people at an honorable and an honest cost. These policies and principles have never been changed, and never will be changed, by so much as a hair's breadth; and they have come to be recognized and accepted as Dodge Brothers principles wherever motor cars are driven. It has all happened as John and Horace Dodge planned it quite simply, naturally, and automatically, all over America, and all over the world. People do discriminate, as Dodge Brothers contended they would; people will find out when a motor car is well built and gives good service and great good value. Dodge Brothers market today is where they planned to locate and establish it in the mind and the heart of every man and woman who admires good work, well done. It will last, and it will keep on growing, as it has kept on growing for five years (faster than Dodge Brothers , works could keep pace with it), as long as the number of those who believe that a manufacturer should build to serve and not merely to sell, continues to increase. All is well with Dodge Brothers today, because John and Horace Dodge builded well in the beginning, and because their business will continue to build well until th end.'
