The Record recognizing the fact that
the progressive spirit of the times de-
mands improvement along all lines,
has decided to keep pace with that
spirit of progressiveness, and has pur-
chased handsome quarters for it's flu
ture home, which they will fit with the
latest and most modern machinery
known in the printers art, and will be
better than ever prepared to care fer
the wants of its patrons, and to give
to its subscribers and friends a het...er
Record, and we hone better news
pare. ...an was ever published in Lam
caster, we say this not in a spirit OF
boastfullness, and we fully recognize
the fact that to eclipse the efforts OF
men who have edited newspapers here
in the past will require an outlay OF
capital, both financial and mental, to
say nothing of the exertion necessary
to the task. We are free to confess
that our determination along these
lines is not entirely unselfish, We be-
lieve that the exigencies of the oc'
casion .demands increased facilities,
the installation of modern machinery
in more modern quarters, and believe
that such action upon our part will re-
suit in an increase of business which
will fully justify the outlay of the
amount of capital involved in the max
ing of the proposed changes.
We have purchased the building
owned by the estate of the late N. A.
and Martha Thompson, on Richmond
street near the Public square, and vii
utilize the eastern store room, and al
much more of the building as may be
found necessary, to make suitable
home for the Record. This room j:
admirably adapted to our requirements
and after constructing modern com
posing room in the rear, which W.
shall do at once, we believe there will
be no more convenient newspaper of
fee in Central Kentucky. For install
lation in our new home we have pur
chase a new "Miehle" cylinder pres
of the latest type, new folding ma
chine to use in conjunction with thi
press, besides other late model ma
chinery, together with motive powe
of the latest improved pattern and o
sufficient horse power to meet all re
quirments. We hope to be installed il
our new quarters not later than Jan
uary 1, 1914, and sooner than that tim
if it be possible.
The contest now in progress ha
added materially to our subscription
list, and after it is closed we shall b

provements in the publication, and we
shall not be satisfied until the Record
is weekly visitor into every home in
Garrard county, as well as to many
humes in adjoining counties, and we
shall spare no efforts to make it a well
come visitor.
Our policy shall be in the future as
it has been in the past, A NEWS
PAPER FOR ALL THE PEOPLE, full
of all the home news, and an abun-
dance of such other reading matter as
we deem will be of interest to our sub
scribers. The policy of the Record, as
is we'll known Is Democratic, but this
does not mean that the paper is bitter
ly partisan, rather the reverse, and we
do not expect, or is il our intention at
any time to allow anything to appear
in our columns which will have a ten
dency to injure the feelings of any OF
our people, regardless of what their
political feelings may be, we believe
that can be done, that we may con-
sistently uphold the cause of demo.
cracy without those little petty thrusts
and innuendoes which are calculated
to offend those who may chance to be
not of our political faith, in fact we
expect in the future as we have in the
past to edit a NEWSPAPER for the
people of Garrard and adjoining coun.
ties, paper which will be acceptable
to everyone as purveyor of news, g
paper which will be welcome visitor
to the home of every citizen in the
county, regardless of what his politics
or religion may be.

Frost Predicted.

The Weather Bureau in their bulletin
for this week predicts frost over the
Ohio Valley, and there are some people
in this vicinity who aver that this
prediction was fulfilled on Monday
night. Anyway it was certainly cool
enough, and we may expect it in the
near future. There is considerable
tobacco vet uncut through the county,
and farmers are busy cutting and hous-
ing it against the probability of frost
and freezing weather before many days.

With this issue of the Record we are
taking the public into our confidence as
to our future plans and prospects, and
in turn we hope the public will give us
full measure of their patronage and
approval. We shall exert our utmost
endeavors to give to you the very best
county newspaper that it Is possible to
publish in Garrard county, but a news
paper cannot thrive of its own volition.
it must have the encouragement and
support of the people to whom it caters.
and above all things it must have their
patronage.
The county paper should be the
county pride, and not a home in the
county should miss its weekly visits.

chronicle the goings and comings of
you, your family and your friends, and

Keep on friendly terms with your
bath tub. 1t is the business OF the
skin to pass off to the surface of the
body some of the waste products. In
the process of, hard manual work or
violent exercises unusual large
amounts of waste products are made,
and the sweat carries them off with
greater rapidly The action of the
breeze and the rubbing OF the clothes
remove some of this waste, but 1t can
not be thoroughly done except with
water A warm bath with the use Of
little soap once week is the min
lmum with which the skin can do its
best work. Baths can well be taken
more frequently, especially II one
takes great deal OF exercise. Quick
baths in cold water without the use
of soap toughens the body and makes
one less liable to have colds. How
ever, such baths do not give the skin
thorough cleansing, and ought not
to be taken by very delicate, sensitive
people except under the reconmenda-
ton of physician. Baths not only
cleanse the skin, but they also start
the blood 10 moving faster. 1t is
known also that they have marked
effect on the nervous system. People
who are exceedingly nervous or in
sane can be more easily. and surely
quieted by properly administered
baths than in any other way. For
continuous mental and physical health,
bath a day is an excellent rule.

you "a doctor book" Generally 1t is
a big, heavy volume, with the names
of physicians in distant cities on the
title page. and big, heavy price set
on 1t. The agent will tell you that by
little study OF its pages, you can al
ways tell just what ails you. just what
medicines to get at the drug store, and
just what doses TO take. SO you will
save all doctors bills. II you buy the

VISITING NURSES!

A visiting nurse Is trained nurse
with special experience, supported
by the city, or county, or some char
liable organization, who devotes her
time to visiting the sick, giving them
advice, and such assistance or service
as she can render in a short time. OF
course, visiting nurse is unable TO
attend cases of such highly infectious
diseases as scarlet fever in the course
OF her regular duties. She is under
the orders Of the physician and is not
allowed to make diagnoses. One such
tress; but 1t is rather a harder task
to prevent disease than to cure IT,
When, for instance, she goes to look
after one case Of consumption in a
family, she watches the other mem
bers of the household carefully in or.
