WASHINGTON SOCIAL.

Almena Ladies' Aid gave social in
honor of 1.-The Father of his Country"
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. h. II.
Miner last Friday night. Tables were
spread for more than 30 guests and there
were about 100 present. In the decora-
tions portraits of Washington and
Lincoln had the place of honor. The
red, white and blue was everywhere in
evidence. BY each plate at the table
lay Ratchet and also cherries and
leaves, which could not have been from
the original tree for that was cut down
too early.
Someone has likened song "To little
drops of celestial melody" and that is
what the audience thought of the songs
and recitations by the children in
costume. Ii at is in learning music
that many youthful hearts learn to
love-" then some one must have fallen ia
love that evening for the music by the
chorus was fine.
Attorney Earl Burhans, as toast
master, gave expression to sentiments Of
patriotism worthy the occasion. 1t has
been said, 1.-The greatest ornament of an
illustrious life is modesty and humility
of character" Herce our worthy toast
master will surely stand among the
princes Of men.
Profs. Mccormick and Donovan were
not able to be present and Harry Miller,
and Rev. Mr.. Luther gave the patriotic
speeches of the evening. The committee
on program are deserving of vote of
thanks, which should also extend to
those who furnished a most excellent
supper These ladies' certainly have
discovered that, 1.-The turnpike road to
peoples hearts, find, lies through
their mouths, or | mistake mankind"
And certainly the hosts Mr.. and Mrs.
Miner are ROYAL in their hospitality.

FOR BREEZY POINT" GIRLS

Mrs NJ. L. Decker entertained about
a dozen young ladies Monday evening as
farewell to Miss Anna Manages, who
has been her guest during the past week.
Miss Manages has made many friends in
Paw Paw during her work here and will
always receive a warm welcome when
ever she chooses to return.
The young ladies were members of the
cast and choruses of the theatricals and
the affair was entirely informal-the en-
tertanment being produced by them
selves, enjoying again the bits of music,
etc., that had become familiar during
their labors together.
Hoping to have occasion to renew the
pleasant associations thus formed, they
babe their friend good bye.

F0RAKER ATTACKS
 ADMINISTRATION Business in Chaotic State on Account of Trust
 Prosecution

Cincinnati, February 2S-Former Uni- ted States Senator Joseph. E. Foraker, speaking before the Cincinnati Business Mems club tonight. declared business in the United States has reached a chaotic state, chiefly, he asserted, because of railroad legislation, prosecution of cor porations and agitation for tariff reduc- ton.
 When this crusade for railroad regu- lation began we had in this country the best railroad service for the least cost of anywhere in the world" he said. "There was cause for regulations and restrictions, but there was no occasion for dealing with the railroads as if they were enemies of society. Yet in large measure that was what was done.
 Their financial credit was crippled and impaired. their growth materially re- tarded. It is conservative to say we have 10000 miles less trackage today than we would have had except for this control the government has as- sumed of it's revenues and operation.
 "The interstate commerce provisions put it beyond the power of the carriers to get business for themselves or for the business men of America by lower ing rates under stress of competition. It is no exaggeration 10 say that In this way millions of dollars have been d- verted from the United States"
