THE 8.8 0. NEEDS SOME COMPETIMN Syracuse People Have One Train A Day In Each Direction Now ' Citizens of Syracuse are considerably wrought up over the new schedule on the B. &. 0. which went into effect Sunday. There always has been some kick about the inconvenience for local passengers but compared with our present facilities for getting in and out of town the former service was excellent. Last Saturday evening was the last day for the two local trains commonly known as the “milkshakes.” These trains formerly went west at 6:19 a. m. and east at 7:31 p. m. with Garrett as the eastern terminal; now these trains run only east as far as Milford Junction cutting Syracuse off altogether. This leaves Syracuse with two trains a day—one east at 9:18 a. m. and another west at 2:20 p. m. The fast trains remain as before but unless one is going to Chicago or Chicago Junction they will not stop for passengers. It is probably that the complaints heard here will take the form of definite action in favor of a competing line. It is thought by many that the interurban project which has been allowed to smolder for several months will receive new impetus by this slighting action on the part of the Baltimore &. Ohio officials and in all probability Syracuse will have an interurban line before the end of another year. Talk of equipping lhe Syracuse & Milford line for passengers is also being heard for it is hardly posible that our people will put up with service such as the B. &O. purposes to furnish us. Syracuse is one of the best local towns —if not the best—on the road between Garrett and Chicago and we know that it furnishes more, freight than any town between these places. A year or so ago after the company had agreed to furnish a new depot in plac6 of the shack we now have the officials excused themselves from building on the plea that the floods of that year had been so expensive that their funds were taxed to meet the strain. Syracuse people were reasonable. They accepted this excuse in good spirit. But our patience is exhausted. If the B. &0. shows no appreciation for the dollars that this community pours into their treasury then it is time to transfer our business to a company that is disposed to consider our convenience in transportation matters. Even the wohn will turn when pressed to hard and if Syracuse is compelled to play the role of a worm we believe that she can develop a result-bringing stinger oK the turned end. We must get to work immediately. The present method of running trains will be a loss to the town and the sooner we stop the loss the better it will be for all. PIERCETON AGAIN WET? THE RECORD CONSTRUES DECISION TO MEAN THAT The supreme court ruled at Indianapolis last week that the second option election at which the “drys” won in Pierceton and Washington township was illegal. The Record construes this as meaning that the township is now wet. The fight at Pierceton has been long drawn out hotly contested by both “drys” and “wets” and considerable money has been spent by both sides.

“If You’ll Go, I’ll Go” Say that to some friend when you leave him Saturday night. Os j course you will mean that you will go to church Sunday if he will too. , That’s a fine way to start off, says | an exchange. If you are undecided as to which church to attend, select the one your mother used to go to. You can’t go far wrong. Any fellow’s mother’s religion ought to be good enough for him. So next Sunday give up the lazy hour in bed. Have your best clothes ready. Put ’em on and start out with your head up and your shoulders back. You’re doing one of the best things you ever did in your life and if you keep it up you will never be sorry. And you’ll be surprised to see ho,w good it feels to be in church. And above all thibgs if there is congrega tional singing, SING. Don’t merely hold the book and bluff at singing. Fill up your lungs and let out the music. Your’l! know,it, all right. You may have forgotten the words but «the tune, never.. Why your mother used to sing it! She will be j a happy woman when she knows her boy was at church. DEFEATED AT CROMWELL SYRAUCSE LOSES BY SCORE OF 12 AND 21 f The Syracuse basket ball team . has struck a losing streak that seems hard to break. At Cromwell la>t Friday night the locals were defeated by a score of 12 and 21. Quite a few rooters accompanied th*' team to the neighboring town their yells were in vain. Nappanee was defeated by Akron and Bremen beat the Holy Nameof South Bend on Thanksgiving Day.

IIOIHEBLEnEfI I BYHUGH WJBSTLEB Teacher In North Dakota School Writes To Journal And Friends Golden Valley, North Dakota. November 22, 1914. Dear Editor and Friends: As I have a few minutes spare time I will write a few lines to let you know that I am still alive in the Wild West. We are having nice weather yet. So far we have had only one snow that lasted two days. We have also had very cold weather. You probably will look at the date and wonder why this letter is so old. All our mail goes bv stage to Mandan about one hundred miles from here. The train coming to j Golden Valley does not caFry mail. Last week I attended the teachers examination held at Stanton. While I there I met thirteen Indiana teachers ! and six of us were from Goshen i College and the remaining seven ; were from Southern Indiana. Staniton ft the county seat and is a ' town about as large as Milford Jet. 1 The court house, a frame building ; is about as large as Mr. Ketring’s j house, formerly owned by Mr. i Riley. The school house consists of four rooms and is heated with stoves. I have the oldest school in the District and the largest in the county, excepting the city schools. In addition to reading and arithmetic I am teaching physiology, the same book as used in our high school and geography three davs oi the week. Since I have more subjects to teach my time is taken am I have very little time to spare. This week I am going to give at examination. All reports are sen to the county superintendent at tht end of each month. I would like to be back in Indiana for a good Thanksgiving dinner bu’ that is impossible. As I think of my friends and read of them in the paper I have a desire to be back with them again. Wishing you all a happy Thanks--1 giving I am; Your Grateful Friend. Hugh Warstler.
