Women and Children First.

women and children first" This
order from the deck of the Titanic
has suddenly set tic world afire rs
if with a new ideal. Artists have
illustrated it with striking cartoons,
ministers have thundered it from the
pulpits and newspaper and magazine
writer's have drawn its obvious NOR
al and new ideal. Building and loan
officers have preached and persuaded
it in the United States for eighty
one years until millions of beautiful
American homes have been erected
worth billions of dollars to the re
public, and still over one billion dol
lars is deposited with the associa-
tions to build other homes-all done
and being done by the fathers. hus-
bands and sons to the one vital and
revivifying ideal of the great repub-
lie.
Procrastination IS the Titanic OF
the great social seas wherein danger
and death lrk and wait for all, and
every dollar saved through a build.
ing and loan association is life
boat in which women and children
first are to be rescued and sheltered
when the captain of the family takes
his last plunge from the bridge OF
his domestic ship.
Is it any wonder that the race
of men who have learned to sacrl'
flee day by day for the safety OF
these women and children should die
with courage and resignation when
the crisis appears? The Building
and Loan Associations have had more
to do with intoxicating this practical
ideal and making all men alike in the
presence of the threatened family
than any other social business move
ment.
The Building and Loan Associations
have for eighty-one years, on this
continent been and will continue TO
be the practical life-boat for wo-
men and children endangered in the
mid ocean OF life.

A Homo Institution For Home Men.

A Homo Institution For Home Men.
1t has been said that the neatest
home on Caddo street is the one built
by a share holder in the Peoples
Building and Loan Association, with
money secured from that institution.
Be that as it may, this home is evil
dence Of two things, that this associa-
tion is a help to the one who would
help himself and that it only loans
money on the best security.
The lot upon which the house in
question was built was owned in fee
simple by the borrower and the
monthly payments which he is max
ing are rendering the security more
and more gilt edged every day.
For safe Investment every day,
one where your money is secured by
steadily advancing real estate values
it would be hard to find better op-
portunity than is offered by this COM
pany.
The president OF the association, as
we'll as the secretary is . man who
is known to every one in Ardmore as
a straightforward and an upright bus
mess man. The people of this city
recognized his integrity and ability
as business man when they elected
aim their mayor and In the business
world he is recognized as success.
This can also be said OF the secre-
tary, W. A. Edwards, who will gladly
give any full information upon the
plans and ideas OF the association.

cuMm,Ns FIRST CHOICE
Progressive Republican Club at Lake
Mills Declares for lowan for PresI-
dent, With LaFoIlette Second Choice.

Special to Times Republican
Lake Mills. Feb. 23.-At large, en-
thusiastic meeting held last night a
Lake Mills Progressive Republican
Club was organized and the following
officers were elected: T. A. kingland,
president; s. H. Larson, vice president;
Elmer A. Henderson, secretary; j. f.
Shay, treasurer. The purpose OF the
club is to work for progressive prln-
ciples and candidates. The following
resolutions were adopted unanimous
ly:
"Be It resolved by the Lake Mills
Progressive Republican Club: That we
believe in the progressive movement IN
the republican party, and that the only
way to save the party from defeat in
the coming election is to adopt the
principles laid down by the National
Progressive Republican League:
"That in order to carry out the prin-
ciples laid down by said league it is
necessary to place men at the mead OF
the party that are in full sympathy
with such principles, and whose record
in public matters show them to be
true, aggressive and consistent in their
efforts to get those principles incorpor-
ated in our national and state laws:
THAT we further believe that Sena-
tors A. B. Cummins and Robert M. La
Toilette are the real and foremost
leaders of the progressive movement in
the United States without regard to
POLITICAL parties or factions, and that
they have blazed the way for political
progress first in their respective states,
end also in the whole nation thru their
work in congress:
"That we believe they are today the
embodiment Of the hope and aspiration
of the real progressives of our country
and their firmness and refusal tc
abandon the straight way Of political
progress has won for them the ad-
miration and commentator of the
people.
BE it therefore further resolved
that this club endorse Senator A. F.
Cummins. Of Iowa, as its first choice
and Senator Robert NJ. LaF'ollette. OF
Wisconsin, as it's second choice for
candidate for president of the United
States, and we pledge our united ef-
forts to select delegates in sympathy
Herewith. and in general to call upon
our fellow citizens to rally to the sup
port Of the cause for which these two
great leaders stand"

gelist, is waking the men and boys in
this city as they have never been wax
ened before. The Orpheum theater Is
filled at the noon hour with men and

men and women are patronized well,
and his evening meetings for men are
certainly largely attended and deep
ly spiritual. DR.. Lane is unique In
the conduct OF the meetings. Enbar-
rassment is entirely lifted from all who
attend. He does not believe In calling
the people to the mourner's bench or
to ask them to stand lin the audience,
not does he go around or permit any
one else buttonholing the people. IF
they are moved they are to'be moved
by the spirit. He believes in q gen
uine, apostolic conversion, and believes
that it will best come by driving the
truths Of the gospel home appealing
to the man and the individual me" in
the man, and when he sees the light he
will come to 1t without too great an eff
fort on the part Of helpers. Arrange
ments have been about completed for

A feeling Of sadness accompanies the

gray hairs. when simple remedy viii

Gun Found Near Scene.

Cedar Rapids. Feb. 23.--Yestcrday
afternoon the special agents Of the
Northwestern brought to this city 80
caliber revolver (which they exhibited
as one they found sticking half frozen
in the ice in a creek about two hun
bred yards west of where the attempt
ed holdup occurred early Wednesday
morning.
The revolver had two empty shells
in it and three loaded ones. Last
night the special agents went to Belle
PLANE to investigate another version
of the affair they believed might work
out so they claimed.
Just whether this gun was one used
in the attempted holdup was a sub
ject for considerable discussion last
evening. There has been no appreci-
able thaw since the holdup so that 1t
is rather difficult to account for its
presence, frozen half way up in the
ice.
1t thawed some Tuesday but froze
quite hard that night and the holdur
occurring as 1t did along toward the
morning Of Wednesday makes it diff
cult to understand just how the gun
happened to be ir the ice.
The special agents. Of whom there
are a considerable number in the city
are working on the case.
1t is thought strange that the ban
dts, II the gun was theirs, would
throw the gun away and keep the
lantern, of which no trace has been
found.

WALKS MILES FOR FOOD.
III other Promises! Hungry Child Hot
Dinner at School.

Des Moines, Feb. 23.--After sendihs
her boy to school hungry. mother
walked more than three miles to the
offices of the Iowa Humane society
that she might procure food for his
monday lunch.
With an empty basket upon her arm,
this woman .radged those miles that
she might fulfill her promise to her boy
that there would be hot food upon the
table when he arrived home from
school. The basket was filed by Sec
rotary Jenney with a sufficient amount
of provisions for both for several days,
and before she left the office Secre-
tary Jenncy gave the woman carfare
that she might be spared the long walk
home.
1T is one Of the saddest cases we
have had" said Secretary Jenney. the
husband Is hard working and does not
drink. They have nice family, but
there Is nothing in way of employment
for that husband who Is making every
effort possible to find work. That moth
er has walked from beyond Fortieth
street. and would have been willing to
walk the distance again to take food TO
her boy who went to school hungry.
