Friday Nights lnterscholastic
Forensic Contest Goes to
Visiting Team
INCOME TAX is DISCUSSED.
With Advantage Of Having Debated
Same Question Before, Visitors Were
Better Able to Present Argument
Decision Based on Argument Rather
Than Merits of Question.

The FIRST interscholastic debate that
a team from the local high school de-
batting club ever participated in was
lost to team from the Mason City
high school at the manual training
building auditorium Friday night.
Considerable interest was manifested
in the debate, and the six young peo-
ple acquitted themselves very credit
ably.
The visitors had one big advantage
in that they had debated the same sub
ject before, and consequently We're
better prepared to present their argu-
ment. Marshalltown had the negative
side of the question, Resolved, That
a national income tax is desirable
part of q scheme Of taxation" The
visiting debaters were Clyde Young
love, Val Harm and Miss Gertrude
Riese, while Herbert Hines. John Ball
and Leon Brintnall appeared for the
Delphic society.
The JUDGES were H. L. Boyer and
Professor Jesse Macy, of Grinnell, and
President c. j. Kephart, of Leander
Clark College, Toledo. The decision
was given strictly on the merits OF the
argument as presented, and not on the
merits of the question. The vote OF
the Judges was two to one.

them and the highest, freest and rich
est service that it is possible for them
to render to God and the world.
The speaker related numerous Incl
dents that had come under his observa-
ton in which useful people had been in
duced to give up life of MINISTRY and
service as the result Of indulgence IN
the dance or card table or the theater.
He argued that the men and women
who do the work of our churches are
not devoted to the things of which ne
spoke. Il pray that no ministerial
friend of mine may ever become the
pastor of a society church"
Following the discourse there was a
large number who expressed a desire
to lead the Christian life and came to
the front of the church as indicative of
their purpose.

HoAe ON ADJUSTMENTS.

Sermon on WorIdIiness.

Baptist Evangelist Preaches strong
Sermon on WorIdIiness.
1t is very evident from the size Of
the audience that listened to Rev. j. w.
Hoag at the First Baptist church last
night that the people Of Marshalltown
have not lost their interest in dis
cussion of Popular Amusements.' 1t
was the largest crowd of the meetings
thus far, and was made up of not a
few non church going people. Great
interest is being aroused in the meet
ings and the methods and manner of
the evangelist are proving most at
tractive. One is impressed with all abb
sence of that worked up and artificial
performance so often characteristic Of
special evangelistic effort.
The question of popular amusements
was handled in practical way, and
the many dangers that beset those who
indulge in these things were portrayed
in manner that brought conviction.
The treatment of the theater, card
table and the dance by Mr.. Hoag was
decidedly free from the usual stereo-
typed denunciation of these things. It
was an earnest appeal to young and
old to allow nothing to come between

RAPID GROWTH

The Stamford Baking Company has
made remarkable growth since it be-
gan business q month or so ago, doing
q business exceeding many bakeries
that have been established for years.
They attribute their success to lib
eral use of printers ink and the pol
icy Of putting into their goods only the
best materials combined with the skill
Of experts in the making. They are
not afraid to tell people what they're
doing and they do things right, q
combination that brings success to any
worthy business. Some new features
have been introduced that have been
appreciated by the people. For in
stance, their chicken pie specials Sat-
urday created demand which they
have been unable to supply, especially
at this time Of year, when it is diff
ficult to get a sufficient number of
chickens. Then they have baked beans
every day fresh for your table. The
buttermilk bread business has grown
to large proportions and they invite ev-
cry housewife to try this bread, be-
lieving that it is superior in every
way. 1t has the blue label which is
their guarantee of quality. Everything
that can be made from flour is made
at the Standard Bakery. Are you a
customer?

A BUGGY PARTY
Local Factory Men Working Twelve
Hours Per Day Are Banqueted by
Foreman Lemp.

Altho most Of the great buggy fac
tories Of the eastern states are closed
down and others running four days per
week seven hours per day. and free
soup houses have made an. appearance
ire many a manufacturing center the
whistle at the Marshalltown factory
does not blow until $3.50 p. m. and the
men have been working twelve hours
per day for over two weeks.
Friday evening closed q long, hard
days work breaking all records ever
made in this factory Of having turned
out 81 complete buggies in one day
better than one buggy every fifteen min
utes. The men had strained at their
tasks as racing crew would do and
foreman Lemp had promised refresh
ments if they beat the fifty mark. The
table was spread in the trimming room
and a cafeteria lunch served. Several
of the directors were present upon in
'vitation and made q few remarks to
the men.
1t is something remarkable that the
local factory can keep going at the
pace it is when things have gone to
the bad in the buggy world but the
-MarshalItown faetory-is trying to make
a reputation for its goods. Its buggies
are commanding recorders from the
dealers upon the strength of their merit
and it is clearly the quality of the
goods already sent out that is running
this factory over time when others are
shut down.
The company has sold 263 fine bug
gies at retail from its repository floor
this spring and is now jobbing the
Kelley and other high grade rubber
tires, buying them in car load lots and
making bargain prices to all who wish
new tires for their vehicles.

SPLIT, BRITTLE, DULL HAIR.
All Come From Dandruff, Which
Caused by a Germ.

Split hair, hard hair. lusterless hair,
brittle hair falling hair, all owe their
origin to dandruff. which is caused by a
measly little microbe that burrows into
the scalp, throwing up the cuticle into
dandruff scales and sapping the vitality
of the hair at the root, causing the sew
eral diseased conditions Of the hair till
it finally falls out. Modern science has
discovered remedy to destroy the
dandruff microbe, which is combined in
Newbro's Herpicide, the delightful hair
dressing. Allays itching instantly and
makes hair soft as silk. Take no sub
stitute; nothing Just as good" Sold

Columbus, o., April 13.-Ex-Gov-
ernor James 4. Campbell, speak
irg at the First Congregational
church last night on "The Golden
Calf after deprecating the present
rush for wealth and the leaving OF
millions to children, said:
The papers have been full OF
accounts of the doings of the
daughter of a man who left s70,-
100000 and who married one WORT,
less, degenerate Frenohman. When
she couldn't stand him amy longer
she left him, and is preparing. the
papers say, TO marry his cousin,
who, If possible is even more
worthless and degenerate. In this
case she is the golden calf"
At another point he said:
"lf Moses had been a member
of the present General Assembly he
would not have voted to abolish
capital punishment. There was no
mawkish sentimentality about Mos
es. lie made the Israelites literally
to swallow their idolatry"

INDIAN POLITICS

Senator Foraker is now In favor OF
third term for President Roose-
welt. In other words he has taken
this plan TO defeat Secretary Taft for
the nomination.
IL Is universally known that For
aker does not like Taft and that II
possible he despises Roosevelt more
than Taft. Foraker has been the
most bitter enemy President Roosevelt
has encountered In his own party, IL
not in both parties. Senator Till
man has been bitter opponent OF
the president in many things which
he has advocated, but he has not
been SO universally opposed TO him
as has Foraker. Tillman's opposi-
tion has not counted for 50 much
either, because he being senator OF
the opposing party, 1t was expected
that he would not be a warm friend
of the president. but with Foraker
II has been different. Foraker's in
fhence has been widely felt In the af-
fairs of the senate, for the reason
that he was recognized as a man OF
ability and because he belonged to
