evening and In an expression Of senti-
ment clearly indicated his absolute In
dorsement Of the present administers
ton. He told the boys that all fac
tional differences had been forgotten
and henceforth he would be found
working in the trenches with the bal
ance Of the T. p. A. members. Mr..
Smith has in the past been the leader
Of the forces that had fought the poll
cies outlined by Indiana and her fol-
lowers. BY his frank statement and
by his evident sincerity he has done
much to aid in bringing into closer

organization. f. E. Lebo responded to

Not in recent years has so representa-
tive a body been gathered around a 7.

cess OF the banquet reflects TO the
credit of Post o and those having the

In the death of L. A. Mote of Post
c., who died Friday night at 1870 at
Reid Memorial hospital of cancer of
the stomach, the members feel that
the organization has lost one of it's
most loyal supporters. His death
comes as a sudden shock to his many
friends in T. P. A. circles. He was
taken suddenly sick in Greensboro,
Ind, while making a drive and word
was sent to the Jones Hardware Co,
for whom he has travelled many years.
Mr.. S. E. Jones and DR.. Bowers hur-
ried to Greensboro in an automobile
and brought the patient to the Reid
Memorial hospital where he died a
few hours later. He is survived by
his wife and two sons. Mr.. Mote had
been a T. p. A. of long standing and
was well known in the territory over
ing personality and made friends rap
idly who will be grieved to learn of
his sudden death.

the change. The train will, however,
arrive in the evening at the same
time, 7:45, and will return at once to
Xenia. leaving Richmond about 9:15
to $3.50.
