E. T. PAUL DISPOSES OF STONE INTERESTS

GERMANS DESTROY HANGERS THAT HELD "DEATH ENGINES'

LEWISBURG, Nov. 28. E. T. Paul has disposed of his holdings in the

Bluffton-Lewisburg Stone company to I Joseph and Allen Patterson of Liraa,j The Pattersons and Mr. Paul havei been associated in the stone and gravel business for the past 16 years and the disposal of Mr. Paul's interest and resignation as vice-president came as a great surprise to those familiar! with the business of the company. The!

company controls five or six plants two of which are located near here.

The tie for township trustee between Harry Recher and Ed. Shiverdrcker has been amicably settled by Mr. Recher waiving all rights to the office. At the recent election each received 316 votes and immediately after it was discovered that they had tied for the office there was talk of a recount, bui Mr. Recher's decision to step aside dis-pels all possibility of any controversy.

Oak Weavf-r of Brookville, was brought before Mayor Jordan on a charge of malicious destruction of property. The charge was made by Town Marshal Trissel at the Instigation of the Leviburg Telephone company, one of whose cable lines, it is

alleged he damaged in attempting toj move a stable over Front street in the!

northern part of the village. He was found guilty and bound over to the grand jury.

this fact that sets this class of employers again?t labor unions. But. we hear some one say: "Prices would come down if labor would como down." Experience does not prove this contention. Employers are not making such promises. We hear somsnr that prices have already come down; that manufacturers have reduced their prices and that labor ought to do the same. Some go even eo far as to say that prices have reached pre-war levels, and unfortunately, they induce some people to be. lieve such statements. This encour-

i ages some to denounce labor for fight

ing to maintain its wage standards. The fact is that the prices of the articles that the worker must buy have not come down to the pre-war level nor anywhere near the pre-war level. And let us all hope that prices will never again reach the pre-war level. Only a few days ago there appeared in the daily newspapers an article te'.ling about the "terrific slump" in prices of the necessities of life, and demanding that labor accept wage reductions for that reason. And on the same day there appeared in the same newspapers an o.Ticial statement from Washington which said that the general average of prices of the necessities of life throushout the country was still tiO per cent abov: the average for 1914. Here we find prices still 60 per cent hieher than they were before the war, and yet these employers are demflnding th-n iabor stand for a reduction of wags to the pre-war level. One fails to see anything fair in such an attitude on

NAPLES, Nov. 28. Anti-French demonstrations, which broke ont in Turin following publication of dispatches from Washington reporting a clash of woras between Premier Briand of France and Senator Schanzer, head ot th" Italian delegation In America, spread to Naples, where several persons were wounded in a revolver battle between police and demonstrators. Enraged over reading published reports of harsh words directed against the Italian delegates by the French premier, a band of demonstrators, consisting for the most part of students and Faseisii, paraded the principal streets of the city crying, "Down with France!" They ; hen proceeded to attack the French consulate here but they were faced with a special detachment of 300 troops that had been called to restore order. The most serious incident in connection with the demonstrations occurred when the mob found a French flag and burned it publicly amidst hostile exclamations against France. ROME, Nov. 2S. Foreign Minister Delia Torretta announced he had received a cable message from Senator Schanzer, head of the Italian delegation at Washington, emphatically denying press dispatches from the American capital alleging that Premier Briand of France had used harsh word? to the Italian delegate in a committee meeting at Washington. "No such incident occurred." the

message from Senator Schanzer read.

Applying this to the parable of the laborers in the vineyard who complained about their varying wages. Dr Bulgin stated that, they had b?en raid upon their intentions and motives lather than upon actual labor. He showed that this is the invariable method in other than worldly affairs, illustrating wiih an apt example of a woman who dropped a five dollar gold piece into a -hurch collection by mistake for a quarter.

First, make a careful comparison of the coach-work. Note the advancements in the Marmon 34, the finer finish, the attention to minute details. Observe the new low effect. Sit at the wheel and see how we have obtained greater visibility. No comparison will reveal a finer standard of coach-work than in the Marmon Sedan, Coupe and Suburban. These bodies, as well as the dependable chassis, are built in the Marmon factory.

Second, make a comparison of performance. There are 12 vital tests which we gladly furnish on a Score Card, so that several cars can be put through the same tests. Comparison will prove that the Marmon closed cars are built for touring as well as for pavements. Be sure to make tnese comparisons, so as to safeguard your future satisfaction.
