COUNCIL APPROVES SEWER ON RANDOLPH; . BUCK HIRING OF PERK Approval of the expenditure of $17,000 for a sewer on Randolph street, passed without a dissenting voice, and a 25 minute squabble over the expenditure of $300 to pay the expenses of having an expert- accountant examine the books of the1 Richmond Home Telephone company, were points of outstanding interest In the city council meeting Monday evening. The sewer discussed was the Randolph street project which would furnish an outlet to the property recently purchased by Edwin C. Wright of Greenville. . The board of works had power to order this work 6tarted, but they felt that the council should have some voice in the matter. For this reason, City Engineer Dell Davis gave a careful explanation of the situation showing just why it was necessary. A resolution stating that It was the sense of the council that this sewer be constructed was passed unanimously. Move Board Take Action. Dr. J. Bulla, county health officer. an8 city engineer Davis then brought up the mater of constructng an additional and larger sewer in the southwest part cf the city, to care for an outlet which had been overflowing and allowing excess sewage to escape during wet weather 'On motion of Councilman Albert Ford, the council moved that the board take action to construct this improvement, the estimated cost of which was $22,000. The third matter brought up before the council was the request of the Richmond Home Telephone company for a change in Its franchise, to allow a ralre in rates. It came up in the form of an ordinance introduced by City Attorney Reller, requesting the appropriation of $300 to pay expenses of an expert accountant. Attorney Reller explained the necessity for the measure. He told the council that in cases of this sort in the past, where a public utility had naked for a raise in rates, it had been customary for the city to examine carefully into the books of that company to determine whether such raise was necessary. Urges Perk Employed He said that Benjamin Perk, who had done considerable work of this sort for the city before, would be brought from Indianapolis to inspect the records and determine the justice of the telephone company's claims. Councilman AVaidele took the floor. Councilman Waidele said he was unable to see why Richmond could not furnish as good an accountant as any out of town concern. The ineaslure finally was passed only after Councilmen Waltermann and Williams, the principal objectors, had been assured that a local man would be offered the chance at the job. Proposes Boost Granted. Councilman Thatcher proposed that the increase in rates be given without further investigation. "f handle the affairs of the city and don't want to take any chances. I know Benjamin Perk is all right," declared Matt Von Pein during the argument. Attorney Reller in a few words, oefined the po.-ition of the council and its duty in the afrairs of the city. "It is up to the council to say what money shall hi; appropriated and it is for the hoard of works to say what men shall be employed." he said. "Mr. Waltermann. if you block this matter 35E In justice to yourself, and to us, know the truth about ONA Our statements may sound to you like exaggeration.

Urges Aid for Employe Waltermann brought up the matter of taking care of a city employe who had been injured about a year ago. The man had 6pent $250 in an effort to regain his health, he said, and he felt the city should take care of this man in some way. The subject was referred to the city attorney.

Councilmen Waltermann, Williams and Waidele were appointed to investigate the merits of the bus lines. In naming the committee.

Farm Bureau Membership Drive to Start in Henry NEW CASTLE, Ind., Nov. 22. The i annual membership campaign of the farm bureau of Henry county will be started at the. next regular monthly meeting, which will be an all day affair held in the courthouse at Newcastle next Saturday. The meeting will open at 10 o'clock and will be occupied during the forenoon with bsiness reports. Earl Crawford will address the assembly at 1:30 and will help in planning the membership campaign. THE FORUM One inspiring thought often suggests another. It was my privilege recently to listen to the sermon of a great preacher. His text was: "Heaven and earth shall pass away but my words shall never pass away," words spoken by our Lord nearly 2,000 years ago with reference to the perpetuation of His church and the great principles for which it stands. While the speaker's words had more reference to the progress and advancement of his own congregation for the past half century or more, the writer reflected upon the world's history for the past 75 years and looked with prophetic eye into the future covering a period of the same number of years. Seventy-five years ago some of the world's most aggravated problems seemed impossible of solution. Europe, while boasting of her many great men, seemed utterly unable to solve her mighty problems. But 75 years have wrought a great change in the world's affairs. ! Slavery has passed away forever. The inevitable world's war with its sacrifice of thousands on the battle fields, has been fought, and now the A

leading men of the nations of the world are in conference with the view of ultimately establishing universal peace. A few nights ago the writer saw the great colored tragedian, Charles Gilpin at the Victory theatre, Dayton. This man entertained some of Dayton's most refined and cultured; not because he was a colored man, but as a genius a man who had become disof art. tinguished in the portrayal of his line As the writer was being entertained by Gilpin's matchless acting, Dunbar, the poet, came to mind, to whom a Dayton journalist some time ago paid a great tribute. "Dunbar," the journalist said, "had brought to Dayton much of its prominence." The journalist was so fair and just that the writer was particularly impressed. This same journalist was no less fair and honest in paying tribute to Gilpin. It all shows that when one does something worth while, no matter what his creed or nationality, full credit is given him. The editor of the Ohio State Journal recently stated editorially: "If I were a colored man, and sometimes I wish I were, I would strive to distinguish myself along a certain definite line, so that-1 would win universal favor." The writer realizes the possibilities of the colored race are unlimited and the future is full of what now seem impossibilities. Seventy-five years hence we shall be nearer the realization of the fatherhood of God and brotherhood of man, and then there shall be neither Jew SHK KNOWS AFTEK 20 YEARS A cold, even when it lias develops! a hacking cousfh, difficult breathing, sleepless nights, raw throat and sore lungs even then a cold yields quicklv to Foley's Honey and Tar.

When you've alv.-ays admired automobiles at a distance, though you've had a good bit of trouble keeping them there, because you've had to do a lot of dodging at street corners and other dangerous spots And. you've never had much of an idea that you'd ever own one, in spite of the fact that your friends have all spent hours telling you the good points of their cars And you've often thought that a good little car would mean a lot of pleasure for you and your family But you've never bought one, for the main and simple reason that lots of us haven't because you couldn't afford to and then you happen to look through the Palladium's Automobile column And you see a number of really good cars offered at prices that are right down where you can reach them and you step out and look the cars over and buy one that looks like what you've been wanting all these years That Puts The Joy Back Into Life!
