Griffith, Ind, Aug. FL
Editor Understanding like a year
ago representatives of the Chicago
Telephone Company came to the town
board here and asked for a franchise
along our streets and alleys. Because
their promises were so fair. and their
desire to give the community immedi-
ate service, seemed so apparent. the
board called a special meeting and
granted them what they asked, believ-
ing that they would get what the com
pany promised and what Griffith has
long needed-direct telephone connec-
ton with the north end of the county
But when the representatives had
gotten what they had come for they
gracefully bowed themselves out and
not thing has been heard from them
since that day. So far as telephones
are concerned, Griffith is not on the
map.
Just why a company that advertises
so widely their great eagerness and
power to serve the people. should de-
liberately ignore their promises. AMI
neglect a profitable business PROPOSE
tfon which they anxiously sought in
the beginning, is a question in the
minds of many of the citizens of the

merely working a scheme to crowd out
all other companies that would will

nitely for what is rightfully due them

What The

ls Doing for unmaaiiy

Under our present mode Of living
the large intestine (or coion) cannot
get rid of all the waste that it &C
cumulates-so it clogs up and then
biliousness, constipation is the result
and that lack of desire to do. to work.
to think.
This waste in the colon. a. we MI
know, is extremely poisonous, and if
neglected, the blood takes up the
poisons and brings on countless very
serious diseases-appendicitis is di-
rectly caused by waste in the colon.
If the colon is kept clean and pure
you will always feel bright and eapa-
bie-never blue and nsrvous-always
up to "concert-pitch."
There is just one internal bath
