A complete list of sehool lots of Putnam County, lias been compiled li\ Alonzo F. Jacobs. There are upwards of three hundred of them, dating back to the times of early settlc*men of the county, and the range In value, at the present time, from $10 to $150 each, many of these lots were abandoned for school purposes years ago, and some of them belong to (he townships or school districts, while a great portion of them revert to the original owners. A snow ball fight between Sam Marsh and James Staley on one side and Bob Smith on the other, resulted in the latter filing an affidavit charging the former with assault in the mayor’s court Friday afternoon. The fight occurred Frida} and trial of the case was set for Friday morning. The prosecuting witness failed to show up at the mayor’s ofifre next morning, however, and the ease was postponed. All are colored

The question of securing local mall service on the internrban lias been dropped until faster running schedules have been arranged by the authorities. This mail service would greatly accommodate the smaller villages between Terre Haute and Indianapolis anil it was thought for a while that stub service would be arranged for at once. However, it lias been decided that the cars could carry no regular nuiils until the running schedule is changed and the running time shortened. The following is clipped from Inst. Thursday's issue of the Indianapolis News: Ex-Senator Towne thinks: "A general sigh of relief will go up when March 1 conies and “the frenzied, capricious, self-centered and selfexalted man, who for eight years, has occupied the White House shall have expired ills term, and sliall be succeeded by a level-headed man." Evidently there are others that think similarly. A gentleman of this city reports that in a recent visit to Washington a Republican Senator humorously declared that, a change In the date of Thanksgiving was in contemplation— from the last Thursday in November to the fourth of March!

as and family, James Thomas and family visited at the different hei.ieit with their guests during their visit here. On Monday, mosi of them gathered at tli* 1 home * f Ernest Ewing and spent the day in talking, telling jokes and playing games, and when the noon hour came and they were all seated around the table a bountiful supply of the good things which make a noon hour enjoyable was

served.

On Tuesday they met at Jonathan Hasty’s, Tuesday night at Chris Brown’s, Wednesday at Emory Aker's, Thursday at John Aker's, and Friday at Doc Tiro mas' where as many of the members of the Hasty family as were present, had their pic-j Hires taken together. On Saturday tie v met at Hoy Clark’s and on Sunday at William Thomas.’ At each place they visited they were entertained in the best manner possible and some beautiful and valuable presents were presented to Miss Mae by the relatives and after the goodbys and sad farewells were said Mr. Price and his daughter departed from Indiana on January 18 and will make a short visit among relatives in Illinois after which they will return to their home near Clay Center,

Instruct ion to Voters. If you desire to cast you vote in favor of prohibiting the sale of intoxicating liquor as a beverage, make a cross thus, X in the square in which is printed the word “Yes.” "If you wish to cast you vote against prohibiting the sale of intoxirating liquor as a beverage, make a cross thus. X in the square in which is printed the word "No.” Some Republicans are saying to other Republicans whom they evidently think are weak partisans that the County Local Option measure was the thing that defeated the Republican party at the last election, and that to vote yes is to encourage the Hanly elements of the party and means continual defeat, therefore a good Republican should vote with

the wets.

Some Democrats are ot tier Democrats, whom Sently think are weak that the Democrats did County Local Option in

form'and the Republican platform did have it in and to vote with the dry crowd Is going back on the Democratic party, and its platform, therefore a good Democrat should vote;

with the wets.

Do not be deceived there is no politics in the question to be voted on on January 2Gtli. And he serves his party best who votes his honest sentiment on the question presented, and takes advantage of the opportunity to do so. Remember, that the man who votes either yes or no because he is a Republican or a Democrat is a non entity and refuses to take advantage of the freedom of his ballot, the greatest privilege of this the greatest country in the world. Vote yes, because it is right, manly, the thing you believe In, that Which will bo best for yourself, your family, your community, and is the thing your Master would have you
