Thanks Syracuse People Mrs. J. C. Bailey has written the Journal from Mt. Union, Pa., to thank all those who contributed to her need in Syracuse. We have a list of the donators that include nearly all of the business men and many others but lack of space precludes our publishing it. Mrs. Bailey was deserted by her husband in Kendallville, several weeks ago, and came here destitute. She was taken into the JCase home and cared for until this donation was collected and she was then sent to her home in Mt. Union, Pa. In her letter Mrs. Bailey especially thanked Mr. and Mrs. Case, Mr. and Mrs. John Kitson, and Mrs. Dan Myers. Debate At Tamarack A debate will be held Friday night at the Tamarack school on the subject: Resolved, that home experience in agriculture is of greater value to the boy than knowledge obtained at agricultural colleges. Margaret Beck, Viola Kauffman and Lillian Hamman will support the affirmative, and Scott Hire, Guy Bushong and Calvin Beck, the negative. Spelling and ciphering matches will follow. Every one cordially invited. Farmer Bankrupt Jonas McKibben, a farmer living near New Paris, has filed a petition in bankruptcy before U. S. Commissioner Logan at Fort Wayne. He schedules his liabilities at $6387.44 and his assets at $8732. Debts that amount to $11,462 are due Milford, Syracuse, New Paris and Nappanee parties so the petition alleges. About $4,000 is held in notes by Warsaw, Milford, Syracuse and New Paris business men and the petitioner says he has real estate amounting to $7,000. —Goshen News-Times. Cut In Salaries If Postmaster General Burleson has his way, first, second, and third-class postmasters throughout the country, with only a few exceptions will suffer material reductions in salary. Burleson figures that by reducing the salary of postmasters from S4OO to SI,OOO each the department can save $500,000 annually. Wm. A. Pence and wife returned Thursday, from a visit with his son at LaVaca, Ark. The son harvested 20 acres of cotton this season and secured 25 five-hundred pound bales for which he secured seven cents a pound. He also raises corn. When Mr. Pence left* that section of the country the farmers were already, plowing for corn and bats.’ Mr. Pence lived there fourteen years ago but now prefers Indiana. Maurice, son of Benj. Blue of Benton township, will this month complete a course in the Indiana Veterinary College of Indianapolis. He expect to enter upon the practice of his profession within a short time. ’ Mrs. E. McPherson has sold her interest in the home left her by her mother, to her father and will move in her own home. Beware of Ointments for jCatarrh that Contain Mercury as mercury will surely destroy the sense of smell and completely derange the whole system when entering it through the mucous surfaces. Such articles should never be used except on prescriptions from reputable physicians, as the damage they will do is ten fold to the good you can possibly, derive from them. Hall s Catarrh Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney & Co., Toledo, 0., contains no mercury, and is taken internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system. In buying Hall’s Catarrh Cure be sure you get the genuine. It is taken Internally and made in Toledo, Ohio, by F. J. Cheney & Co. Testimonials free. Sold bv Druggists. Price 75c per bottle.

With best wishes to yourself and all old friends in Syracuse. I am Yours Truly Frank Spurr (The Journal would be glad to hear from Mr. Spurr about the mines.) St. Cloud, Minn. Jan. 9, 1915. Geo. 0. Snyder Dear Sir My subscription to the Journal expired some time ago and I should like very much to have it renewed. I have taken your paper for a good many years, because I always find in it some thing interesting of my old home and the friends I left there. It has been a long time now since I’ve been to Syracuse and I suppose the town has changed a great deal. There are new names in the paper, but enough of the old ones to make me want it still. My present address is St. Cloud, Minn. R. Rt 5. Later I shall return to Harlan, lowa, but I’ll notify you of this change. Very truly yours, Mrs. Henry E. Boner.

The person giving the deed must not only attach the stamp, but he must cancel it by writing across it his initials and the date, under a penalty of six months imprisonment.
