was SO opposed to him in political
views, and he accepted the situation
and devoted himself to the task of
building up his. business. It was not
long until he had arrived at q legal
eminence which seemed to him suffi-
Gent to warrant a flight into the polit.
ical field. With this end in view he
came out as q candidate for the legis-
lature and at once entered on vigor-
GUS campaign. Although the circum-
stances Of the case did not seem to jus
ttfy the experiment and all his friends
were opposed to the venture, he ae-
tually came within few votes Of se-
curing the election. He carried the
city In which he lived, but could not
secure the country districts. It was
actually q great triumph for the young
Democratic lawyer, and It added i'm
uiensely to his reputation as a man of
nerve without In any way detracting
from his character. s3f.a III
#a In 1878 Kern was elected city attor-
ney OF Kokomo, and when his term
expired he was accorded reelection.
While serving in this capacity he made
an excellent record During his two
terms law and order were dominant,
and. 1T became current saying In Ko-
komo that there was no necessity to
bolt the door as long as Kern. was on
the watch.
In the state election OF 1884 Mr..
Kern was elected reporter OF the
supreme court on the Democratic tick
set In this responsible position he
proved most efficient and conscientious
and won many powerful friends. AT
the close Of his term he settled In In
dianapolis and soon became closely
identified with the business interests
and policies of that growing capital.
He was elected to the state senate In
1892 and did admirable service in the
Legislature. From 1897 to 1901 MIR.
Kern was city attorney Of indianapolis
under Mayor Tom Taggart the nation
al chairman Of the Democratic party.
He took very prominent part in the
great political battle OF 1893 and was
identified with the fortunes Of Mr..
Bryan In the state Of Indiana.

or descended to the abuse OF any Of
his political antagonists. He is es-
teemed throughout the state as a man
OF high ideals and pure motives.
In 1900 Mr.. Kern received the nom
anation for governor, but he went down
TO defeat with MIR. Bryan. Again in
1904 he was given another opportu-
nifty, but the sorry political fortune Of
the previous campaign was repeated.
Although he was regarded as one Of
Mr.. Bryan's stanchest friends. he was
the first Indiana man Of any especial
prominence to come out for Judge AL.
ton B. Parker, whom he supported 10y
ally without In any way endangering
his friendship for the man from Ne
braska. Thus it Is that he is today one
OF MIR. Bryan's closest friends and adj
mirers.
Mr.. Kern Is native son Of the
Hoosier State, born In Howard county,
near Kokomo, In 1849. He Is of south
ern extraction, his father having emil
grated from Virginia In 1885 and be-
coming one of the pioneers OF Howard
county, where he prachced medicine
for several years. When John was
five years Of age his parents decided
to remove to Iowa, and the family re-
manned in that state until the lad was
fifteen. Soon after the Kerns had
returned to their old home their son
entered the State Normal school and
after short period OF preparation be-
came district school teacher In How

In saving a little money he entered

his course. But he was resolute I'm
the determination to obtain an educa-
ttion. and he permitted no hardship to
turn him from his purpose. When he
was graduated he carried of all the
thonors to which he was eligible, and
his record was most gratifying OF any

CIVIC IMPROVEMENT PLAN.

If there is th:ckly populated sec

well to study the following plan, which
is described in Club Notes by Louise
Ilein Miller, curator of the public
school gardens of Cleveland, o.:
Little Italy is one Of the most dense
~ populated foreign districts in Cleve-
land. Men, women and children who
have lived under sunny skies of their
native land. accustomed to seeing beau
tiful gardens, gay with brilliant flow
ers, are now living under the most con-
gested conditions. The heat of sum-
mer forces them from their warm
houses into contracted yards or out on
parched payementS.
"An effort is being made to trans
form vacant lot lent for the pur-
pose into beautiful garden where the
people may go and enjoy the green
things. growing The Plan includes

Home Trade Truths,

A dollar spent in your own town is
dollar saved to the community.
The purchasing power of money
spent around your home is much more
than its purchasing power if spent
away off yonder. 1t buys the respect
of your neighbors and a standing for
yourself as n loyal citizen.
1t is funny to hear fellow preach
and pirate about town loyalty when he
makes habit of using the mail order
catalogue as his saleslady or sales
man. Now, isn't that fact?
Maybe the reason that young friend
of yours resigned his job in the local
store and moved to the big city is that
you have been helping to build up the
city stores at the expense of the local
stores and your young friends sal
airy at home suffered accordingly.
Did it ever occur to you that the COM
munity feeling, so to speak, is the
thing that makes life worth living il
any town? By the community feeling
is meant. of course, that condition
where neighbors are mutually depend
ent and helpful, one recognizing the
right of the other to be considered frs
in any deal rather than an outsider
| and vice versa. And the motto of the
community feeling Is this: "Patronizt
home industries"
If the mail order trade is hurting
| your town, and in all probability it |:
and you know it is. suppose you pause
Il moment and ask yourself what part
of the injury you are inf1icting. VIII!

continued. Newton is a thriving. hus-

Its people are progressive. They be-
lieye in clean streets, and there seems
to be Il sort of personal pride about
keeping things clean.
Very seldom do you see any one
throw trash or waste paper in the
streets of Newton. Nothing against it
except it just seems to be a sort of
moral code or unwritten agreement the
people have fallen into. Towns have
their habits even as individuals"
