THE CANVASSERS ARE COMING This Is the season when great numbers of students from college, both young men and young women, are gallivanting the country, with serious faces and hard luck stories, and patented articles. The patented stuff is to sell. The serious face and hard luck story are to do the selling. Neither is natural; both, are cultivated; both have been taught to these young people by experts in the canvassing business. These experts frame up the story of how the person is working his way through college, and how he or she is making enough money on the summer vacation to carry well into next year. It’s a sweet story; just a little short of tragedy. And it may get you, this warning notwithstanding. A few years ago these college students were selling books; now they handle almost every kind of merchandise, usually specialties which are covered by patents. The prices you will pay them, if you are enamored 'of their story, will be more than twice what the same article would cost you in the local store. If our merchants have not the exact articles these young persons offer you, they will get them readily enough and be glad of the chance. And they will save you money, too, It is all right to help young men and women through college, but we have it on authority that more than half of these persons who go through the country with merchandise to sell, and a hard luck story to sell it, are simply out for their summer frolic; they do not need to sell you a lot aluminum ’ ware at three prices in order to go back to school in the fall. Stick with the home merchant. The Milford Mail says that no person speaking from experience can sav that stone roads are better than gravel. We believe that Brother Groves is a little over-zealous in exploiting a home industry, It has been our observation in Ohio that stone roads outlast gravel and are not near as suseptible to ruts. A Farmer near Syracuse secured a new brand of pumpkins and planted them but be will change seed next year. The seed was ad-

L •» unmkm peen association. —— _ vCtP Many .travelogues are made up by the compAiiy that furnishes stuck slides and descriptive mauus*.. .pis and are given by those who in most cases have never been abroad in their Uves. In the “Story of Panama” an illustrated account of the great engineering enterprise will be given by a man who spent five years in the canal tone Professor Gause, the eminent educator, was selected by Uncle Sam to take charge of the schools in Panama. He had under his supervision 5,000 Americans and native children. His frequent visits to the several schools took him over the entire country many times and brought him into familiar contact with all the aspects of the progress of the canal. He knows his subject. His book on Panama has had the largest sale of any relating to this subject and has already gone through three editions. The audiences are invited to ask questions, and after the evening of the third day of our Chautauqua we are sure that many will feel that they have a satisfactory knowledge of the greatest engineering accomplishment of history. Beautiful slides and several thousand feet of films are aids to Professor Gause’s splendid description of American enterprise and achievement. ——■—

The pesky vines grew so rapidly * that they wore through the rind of the pumpkins dragging them across field. The Ligonier Banner says the construction of a trolley line from Kendallville, through Ligonier to Goshen depends upon future financial conditions. Was there ever a trolley line that depended upon anything else? A Sane Fourth is what Syracuse will experience this year without a doubt. In fact, we predict that it will be so sane that the unfortunate who finds himself marooned on our streets on the “Glorious Fourth” will be mlighty lonesome. All Signs to the contrary notwithstanding there is goiug to be one long dry spell in this neck of the woods and the last chance for irrigation will end Saturday. Indian Village. Miss Far B. Mock.
