The Trip Around the World. The trip around the world Friday evening via the Epworth League route, was a most delightful one, and was quite well patronized. Several automobiles were engaged in carrying the passengers and we r e kept busy until late in the evening. The first train left promptly at 5 o’clock, and being a fast through train, soon arrived at Germany, (L. T. Heerman’s). From there another trail carried them to Ireland, (Ed Miles’), then to Italy, (C. I. Ben-

"SYRACUSE, INDIANA. THURSDAY. NOVEMBER 16, 1911.

[SATURDAY NIGHTS iSTORM Never have we witnessed a more sudden and severe change in the temperature than that which took place here last Saturday night and Sunday. Saturday was a very mild warm day, but at about 9 o’clock in the evening the temperature began to fall until Sunday morning, when the thermometer registered only a few degrees above zero. - The sudden change in temperature was accompanied by rain and snow and a furious windstorm which swept northern Indiana and in places did much damage. At Milford Jet. and in that vicinity it could not be classed as a windstorm but a genuine tornado. Trees were twisted off and out of the ground, telephone and telegraph poles were blown down and broken off, barns and houses were unroofed. At the home of Mrs. Jennie Berkypile, just south of Milford Junction, the wind tore off the roof of the house and barn and carried a large chicken house across the road a distance of- - feet. The roof was blown from the barn of Otis Clayton, near Milford Junction. Quite a number of other barns and small buildings had the roofs torn off during the storm. The brick building at Milford Jet, used by the U. 8. Express Co., and known as the transfer building, was badly wrecked. The roof of the 1 south half of the building was car- ; ried away and the walls almost lev- : eled to the ground. Bert Dawsman 1 kept his automobile under cover in 1 this part of the building, but fortu- i nately the roof was carried clear off s

the building and the walls in most part fell out, doing very little damage to the car. The barn of Jesse Smith, just north of Milford was struck bv lightning and burned to the ground ma remarkably short time. The barn was a large one and was filled with hay and grain. All of the conincluding all of the stock, was burned. The Gilberts school house, south of here, was badly wrecked, the roof was carried away and the gables blown in. The doors on the big Dunkard church, south of here, were blown open and the sides of the building loosened from the ends Eugene Method, living three miles northwest of town, when he went to his barn Sunday morning found his horses broken loose and huddled together in one of the stalls and the roof of the barn gone. Out of a fine orchard only seven trees remained, and many large orchards of neigh- [ bors were in the same condition. In several patches of timber nearly all the trees were either twisted off or tom up by the roots with enough .earth clinging to the roots to fill an ordinary sized room, some of which were carried thirty or forty feet from where they were tom up. A Mr. Cripe in that neighborhood, lost aIT but twelve chickens out of a flock of 150, the others had feathers blown away, bones broken, etc. The bam of Mr. Miller, near Gravelton, was struck by lightning and set on fire. He discovered the fire and hastened to the barn to free his horses. The flrs| one he came to kicked him in the side rendering him unconscious and breaking , several ribs and one leg. Neigh-

: I bors arrived just m time to sav< • him from the fire. Waterloo. Indiana, suffered th< t greatest loss cf property, the hornet r of many families being practically [ ruined. Many miraculous escapes . from death are reported. Traffic was hindered, the telephone and telegraph service was badly impaired and much suffering endured. as many people were unpro pared for the very sudden change. Boys Class Elect Officers. Last Sunday morning the Loyal Boys class of the M. E. Sunday School elected officers for the next six months. Pres. Earnest Buchholz, Sec. Donald Butt, Treas. Hugh Kitson. Friday evening the 17th, they will have a meeting at the home of Earnest Buchholz’s to plan some work as well as entertainment for the best interests of the boys. He-Mi La for purity. They are the quality chocolates that add a touch of hospitality hny hostess is proud to display. Try them once and you’ll never again be satisfied to buy chocolates that are not stamped He-Mi-La. Miss Celia Smith of Cromwell, a former Syracuse girl, now teaching; gave a box social at the Cromwell village school, the proceeds to be used for a library fund. The supper was liberally patronized.

A True Gentleman. “A man that’s clean inside and outside; who neither looks up to the rich nor down on the poor; who can lose without squealing; and who can win without bragging; who is considerate to women, children and old people; who is tbo brave to lie, too

generous to cheat and too sensible to loaf; and who takes his share of ( the world’s goods and let* other people have theirs, is my idea of a true gentleman.”—Ex. Will Hettinger of Kimmell, passed through here Monday on his way to Nappanee.
