BETTER SERVICE WANTED
BY NElGnBORING town
Over Central From Here to
Columbus

An improved train service between
Americas and Columbus, over this
division of the Central railway, is the
desire of citizens of Ellaville, Buena
Vista, Lacrosse and other towns or
the line who do their trading in
Americas, as well as of the travel
ing public. This service applies more
directly to the train leaving Column
bus early in the morning for Ameri-
Gus and scheduled to arrive here at
1880 a. m, but frequently arriving
much later.
This train does local freight service
as well and usually brings in doz-
en- to twenty loaded cars besides the
two passenger coaches, mail and ex-
press. Delay is necessarily entailed
in delivering freight at various points,
hence the late arrival here, afford
too little time for shopping, to say
nothing of other alleged inconven-
fences entailed

MILK YOUR cows TO MUSIC:

Gilbert Hiccox, bank director and
farmer, producing milk of quality,

milk sells to the exclusive set at Y
cents a quart this makes his music
worth $1,000 a year to the farm.
He made the experiment on the
theory that music at milking time
would make the COWS less inclined 70

Lays For Burglars;

Everything comes to him who waits.
Ralph Williams. 1892 Madison street,
waited half of the night for a burglar
What he did to him would make u
great motion picture. incidentally his
presence of mind prevented two burg
laries in the house.
One night last week at the dinner
table in the home OF Ralph Williams
someone mentioned burglars. Ralph,

dashery owned by Jacob Fox and by
night a student and follower of GER

graphic description of what a rough
neck burglar might expect from him.
Late that night Williams awoke from
sound sleep with but one idea in his
usually all comprehensive mind. With
what he believes to have been previ-
Gus knowledge he looked toward the
window by his head. On the sill he
saw a hand, not of the ordinary lilly
white kind. but a monstrous nightmare
of hand that resembled the ones you
see pictured on the editorial pages of
a Sunday newspaper.
A moment later face appea red,
equally as appalling. A few eternities
passed and a phantom like shoe, big as
sill, seemingly not connected with any
thing physical. But Williams knew

Levi Golden. organizer and director
of the local order Is promoting the
campaign against profanity. Said he:
IF boys were never taught to swear
they would be very unlikely to form
other bad habits. Profanity is under
mining, it blots out the good in a man
or boy just as surely as any vice. 1t
leads to the other habits and is never
separate from them. Show me man
that Is addicted to the profanity and
I will show you a man who has the
other vices. Hammond boys are worse
in that respect than In almost any city
1 know about that Is not in the Calu-
met region. IT is time that Christian
people exert some discipline over their
sons and see that those they associate
with are also clean of speech.
