SLOAN “For five years I was unable to work,’’ said Mr. Charles W. Sloan, , 1319 S. Armstrong street, Kokomo. “Ailments of the stomach, liver and kidneys robbed me of my health and strength. I could keep nothing in niy stomach but milk. My kidneys were weak and night risings frequent. My liver was inactive arid I was never free from constipation. Finally I was forced to bed where I lay for six months. “I began taking Konjola soon afterward and I began eating again. As my strength improved from nourishing food my kidneys and liver began functioning again. Ino longer suffer from constipation. lam again on my feet and back at my work where I have since completed several jobs. Even the nervousness and asthma which had been added to my troubles, no longer worry me, and I feel better than in. years. I can never say too much for Konjola.’’ Konjola is sold in Syracuse at Thornburg Drug®Co., and by all the best druggists in all towns throughout this entire section. o RESOLUTIONS OF RESPECT Whereas, it having pleased the Supreme Ruler of the Universe, to summon to a state of endless duration our worthy and beloved brother, Oliver Snavely. We, while bowing with submission to the inevitable decree, that dust shall return to the earth, as it was, and the spirit shall return unto God, who gave ■‘it, deeply deplore the severance of another link from our fraternal achain. Therefore be it resolved, That in the loss of our Brother, Kosciusko lodge No. 230, K. of P., loses a faithful member and the community at large a valued citizen. And be it further resolved, That we extend to the bereaved family our sincere sympathy and as a tribute of our affection the charter of the lodge be draped in mourning for sixty days and a memorial page inserted in our minutes, and that a copy of the foregoing be ordered printed in the Syracuse Journal and a copy presented to the family of our deceased Brother.

The two men had to walk a mile and a half back to Warner’s w here Mr. Klink spent the night Thursday he worked on the road and walked home to Syracuse. Harry Juday, driving from the Benton township school, didn’t get back home Wednesday night, and Merl Neff had an exceptionally difficult time, driving from the Bethany school. His machine stalled when he left his home to go to the school house to get the children Wednesday afternoon. With assistance of men and teams, he finally got th children, 15 of whom had stayed at the Floyd Rowdadabaugh’s, home by midnight. When he reached his own home, he discovered several parents there, waiting for news of him and their small ones. Twelve of the children, with their teacher, from the New Paris school finally reached the Hugh Bushong home, Wednesday. The bus hail broken down, and the men from nearby, among these Mr. Bushong, worked to; dig it out. but to no avail. Then | Mr. Bushong hitched up his team. ’ and brought the children from •; the broken down bus to his home. [ But some of them had not been dressed for any change in the ; weather, like last Wednesday’s, ’ and the three quarter of a mile drive through the snow in the bob sled, made them cry with the cold. Eight of them could not reach home that night, so stayed Bushong’s. Four of these eight remained until Saturday when they were able to go to their homes. .Thursday and Friday of last week were to have been final examination days at the Syracuse schools. Then, with the weather preventing travel, school was dismissed those two days, l with the expectation of classes] being held Monday and Tuesday, of this week. But it soon became evident that roads would not be passable to permit this, and school vacation was extended until Dec. 30. On this date classes are to be resumed, weather permitting. o Public Sale As I have decided to quit farming, I will sell at public auction, on what is known as the Al Weyburn farm, 4 mile east of Milford Junction on — THURSDAY, JAN. 2, 1930 Sale to begin promptly at 10:30 a. m.

“The Li l Wife In Africa” (Editor's Note: .Because sol many people have suggested we ; write some of our African experiences; and because so much is written of big game, and so little of housekeeping near the Equator, the editor’s wife is writing, -from the diary she kept, about “The Li’l Wife in Africa.") (Continued from Last Week) Before leaving the old home town for New York, the port from which we were to sail to Africa, via Europe, we had purchased some of the equipment we expected to use the next two years. TropicaLhelmets and such things, w’e intended to buy in Europe, in order to travel light as far as w’e could. The editor, having had one term there, could, by remembering the things he ran short of, estimate how many socks and shies to take with him. But he wasn’t much assistance at helping me guess how many boxes of face powder I’d use in two years; or cakes of soap, or how many tooth brushes one should plan on using in two years. The habit of buying things as needed doesn’t help much in figuring out every item to be needed in a certain time. Then these must be bought and wrapped up in moth balls before packing. The morning after we’d gotten official permission to start for Africa, a taxi rushed us and our hand luggage to the pier, where a lot of people were making a fuss about going to Europe. The poor things didn’t know what they were missing, not going straigt on to the Dark Continent. Sophisticated people, who go to Europe every summer, can call them cabins on a boat, if they like, but what we had to live in at the start of our two and one half years out of the country, put the best of the hotels to shame, what I mean. We had plenty of reason to remember that cabin before we sailed on la trans-atlantic liner again! I After a visit to the cabin, we made our way up on deck, without a road map, and found two ; little tugs at work beside our [ ship. They puffed around like fat women getting into place. The crew of our ship raised the j gangplanks, they blew the ship’s * whistle, and everyone on the dock, waved a rainbow colored , handkerchief, and cheered. And, as we quietly slid'into the river i with the tugs working like mad, the crowds rushed further out on the pier to continue waving. We dropped our pilot, out where 'the waves begin. And there followed a fun on a ship so well equfppru that nothing had been forgotten, even 1 a swimming pool. An amusing [experience occurred, when new friends, having said where they were going, and found out where we were going, began asking information about Africa. There was a South African on board, bound for Capetown, Johannesburg, and home —and he couldn’t get home too quickly to suit him. He would be untamed miles from the point in the interior where we were going, about 14 degrees below the equator. He had been making an educational tour of America, and was a graduate of a South African university. So he was nearly ready to jump overboard when a sweet young thing, on hearing he was from South Africa, asked him where he had learned to speak English. The aunt who was chaperoning her, asked the present editor, if Africa was really as weird and romantic as she had heard? She said, “Weren’t you simply frightened to death? A missionary once told us that he had been in the heart of the Dark Continent for three' years, and the sun had never penetrated the jungle growth in all that time!” Because so many people have imagined so many remarkable

things about Africa, it is difficult to get answers to questions believed, when people ask for information about that country. Big game stories told to children must have caused much of the mis-informtaion about the country. I know I had always heard about “lions and tigers in Africa.” When we finally reached there, I made the mistake of using that phrase before a man who had years of hunting to his credit. And he kindly told me, that in South Africa the Boers have a name for the leopard, spelled differently but pronounced like our word “tiger.” But what American circus goers know as the royal, striped tiger, is from Bengal, from India. There has never been a tiger found on the continent of Africa unless imported there by a circus, or a zoo. But there are so many mosquitos you never njiss the tigers! (Stories of the trip to Africa, and of amusing housekeeping experiences there, will follow.) 0 George Jessel, Broadway’s favorite at Crystal, Ligonier, next Sunday, Monday, Tuesday.

By evening the roads to Goshen and Ligonier were open to machine travel. Saturday afternoon residents from about the lake walked to town with sacks [ over their shoulders to load up : with groceries before returning ! home. By Satuday night it was ’ impossible to buy a loaf of bread j in town. j Monday morning the city had ' employed 12 men and five teams | to clear the streets of the banked i up snow, Saturday’s stacks of it I being added to by another snowi fall Sunday. Wednesday night, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, the telephone calls had increased so that an extra operator was kept on the telephone board all the time to take care of the phone mesj sages of people who could not get i to the points they wished to visj it in person. i Monday morning “Beanie” ; Howard drove the road grader, to level the snowfall rather than ■ the dirt in the Syracuse streets. By Monday noon two of the I Kosciusko county road scrapers had reached town. That roads were rapidly becoming opened, was shown by the increased number of machines on the streets Monday. The first few days after the blizzard, the sound of a machine had attracted attention, as most of the travel was being done by bob sleds. -* o .

He made the trip by bus, and says there was very little snow until they reached Cleveland, Ohio. From then on the passengers were forced to change busses six times, on account of mishaps to the machines, or on account of snow blockades. Mr. Miles reached Elkhart Sunday midnight, and Mrs. Miles drove to Goshen with Joe Rapp to bring him home from there.
THIS WEEK (Continued from First Page) We al linhale too little oxygen. [ That is why we need exercise,] majenig us breathe more rapidly anur deeply. Just before the war, Northcliffe offered $50,000 for a flight i across the English Channell, less than fifty miles. The other day, Coste, French i flyer, set a new record by flying | nearly 5000 miles without stop-! ping or taking fuel. i Great progress in a few years, | from fifty miles to five thousand. Who doubts that ten years hence flying across the % Pacific at imy p>« .1 will be ' pilot’s “child’s play,” and flying the Atlantic for student flyers? By this time this country will have to think seriously of hostile air visits from Europe or Japan. Even our greatest “statesmen” will get their minds off archaic battleships. “Marianne” with Marion Davies, at Crystal, Ligonier. Best all talking, all singing pictures.

"I felt like the boy in the I I story who shoved his fist into a ; hole in the dyke, to keep Holland l from being flooded out,” she 1 said. Mr. Osborn and his assistants found it so hard to turn off the water in the basement that they tried to; find the street connection, thjrough all the snow. Finally they got the water stopped running up stairs, but it flowed then, in the basement. At last it was shut off, leaving a house with at least one room to be replastered, and with damaged furnishings. Mrs. Disher had placed heavy tuba on the floor, to try to catch most of the water as it came through the ceiling. In emptying these outdoors she got so wet and cold that she went tq bed with tonsilitis when the water was finally shut off. M. L. Ketring, V. D. Disher and Lloyd Disher had started out Wednesday when Madison McPherson reported the Disher truck held up by the snow on the Benton Ligonier road. And they stalled before reaching him.
