He buys porkers by day and by night He buys ’em for more and he buys ’em for less, What he does for the farmer, you surely can guess. He writes items for business and fun, His words they fairly do hum. He mentions the sawdust pile, (Even a civet cat would smile. Or the Teegarden mayor pro-turn.) His news are inspirin’ and heatin’. Your temperature surely will weaken If you believe all he means or read as it seems Good afternoon to you, Mr. Deacon. mtTYernon Byron Capeslof South Bend was calling on old friends here Sunday and Monday. I Isa Lawrence was the gue^t of Mildred Stover over Sunday. Mr. Tutsell wan'sa.cted business in Ply mouth Morßay. Harold Gopuert is home from South Bend fomhe summer. Anna Whittaker has been in South Bend the past two weeks. George Stu4ley is installing an electric light plant in his home this week. Kathryn Stover was in South Bend over Sunday. Anna Mechling was home ill with tosnilitis the past week. Mr. and Mrs. John Telkamp and Mrs. Meri Niswonger of Tyner called on Mrs. Telkamp’s brother, H. F. Goppert, and family Sunday afternoon. A number from here attended the funeral of William Stickley of the Island Sunday. LAPAZ Frank Dunnuck from Bremen was in town Tuesday. Mr. and Mrs. W. M. Bressler attended the show given by the Seniors at Walkerton last week. Miss Marion Logon, daughter of Paul Logon, and Mr. Claude Kaser were married at Plymouth last Saturday and will live on Edward Kaser’s farm northwest of town. Tom Hornsby has been the new section boss for the last few days, taking the place of Clem Aldrich, resigned. D. L. Reynolds was a Plymouth caller Tuesday. From Plymouth went to Walkerton, dropped in on the editor and says the older Mr. Endley gets the harder he works. Ho wonders if Walkerton will ever appreciate what the Independent has done for the fair city in trying to promote its progress and advancement in a business way and in elevating it to a still higher standard Reynolds and Kinzie bought 19 good hogs of Ed Heyde last week. George Seltinright hauled them into town for Mr. Heyde when within one mile and a half from town we suppose Gorge got to thinking about his besrl;i>’E TfieAragort began to rock and over went George, hogs and all into a big mud hole. After the smoke cleared away they drove the bunch into tpwn. The deacon told George if he had been a married man he would not have upset. Llige Good, the wide awake saw mill man from Teegarden, is putting all his competitors in the shade on buying timber. Recently he bought the timber on the Shetland farm north of town for eight thousand and twenty 2ve dollars, and just the day before he bought the timber on what is known as the Jacob Row farm for eleven thousand dollars. Mr. Good competed with all the best mill men in the country but handed them all a lemon. Bert Bradley has bought out Albert Hunter’s blacksmith shop and taken possession. We did not learn if he got the marshal’s office in the deal or not. We are not acquainted with Mr. Hunter’s plans in the future. We had a bachelor living just south of town, Winfield Siber, who has put them all in the shade when he goes out to hunt a wife. Last week he went to Devoit, 111., to see a Miss Gaby, stayed three days, got the fever and got married Saturday evening. He and his fair bride came in on the milk shake, went to the home of his mother where they are snugly tucked away and have started to travel life’s journey in earnest, showing to the world when they make up their minds to step into the matrimonial boat that nothing can upset them if they just sit steady in the boat, on life’s stormy sea. We hope all these storms may be small ones. Albert Hunter, the town marshal, and Ray Webb are working for Ira Mdrich on tjhe extra gang. William Pressler, wife and daughter will iea l f' for Akron, Ohio, in a few days. * Harry Riggle, of Bremen, is repairing his ifore building, formerly the post off^e. We are fioing to call on the Muddy Street sefribe and make some repairs for the candidate for mayor from the gas city. NON-RESIDENT NOTICE. State of Indiana, St. Joseph County, ss.

52$ ! How would like a raise--—\ \ 34 Years Work. THAT is the kind of increase in salary the minister has received. His . living expenses have risen just as fast and as far as yours. But he is paid on the average just 52 cents more per church member than he was paid 34 years ago. The Minister Never Fails You Every officer of the Government with a war message to deliver appealed to the ministers first of all. But 80% of the ministers receive less income than government economists figure as a minimum for the support of an average family. When hospitals need money they enlist the support of the ministers —and receive it. But when sickness visits the minister or the members of his family they must be treated in a charity ward. His pay is less than a day laborer’s. 8 out of every 10 ministers receive less than S2O a week —about half the pay of a mechanic. We Pay Him Half the Wages of a Mechanic And of these pitifully inadequate salaries, how much do you contribute? Nothing if you are outside the church; an average of less than 3c a day if you are a church member. All of us share in the benefits of Christian ministers to the community. They marry us; bury us; ?aptize oar children; visit us when we are sick. In their hands is the spiritual training of the youth. We Are All Profiteers at Their Expense Part of the Interchurch World program is this a living wage for every minister of Jesus Christ; an efficient plant, and a chance to do a big man’s job. If you want better preachers, help to pay the preachers better. It’s the best investment for your community —and for your children —that you can ever make. _ Interchurch WORLD MOVEMENT 45 WEST 18th STREET.
