BOARD TO REPAIR
CITY HALL fLUES

Harry Hodgin, building inspector,
came home to the members of the
board of works today, when he in
formed them that they would have to
repair the city building flues. The
members complained that they had ar
ranged an appropriation of $500 for
the maintenance of public buildings
and unless the work could be done
chcaply, it would pinch that fund.
They decided, however, that they
could do nothing but carry out HOdg-
ms order and have the work done.
Those flues are so bad you can
stick your hand through them" HOdg-
in declared to the board members.
They believed the work could be
done cheapiy but afterwards found
that the cost of the ScaffOlding in the
roots will be much more than they
had estimated as the expense of the
entire job. The flues are only used
for gas fires but the building inspector
refused to exempt the city hall from
the order

Mail For Special Delivery
Causes p. O. Endless WOrrv

Because employees of the post office
did not telephone to hotels and board
ing houses of the city to locate man
to whom special delivery paper was
sent, TRADE of abuse was poured
down upon the head Of Superintendent
OF Mails Handley this morning.
The package of papers came adj
dressed to general delivery and bore
special delivery stamp. The postal
rules are plain to the effect that all
mail addressed general delivery, must
be placed at that window and not de-
llvered in any other way.
The receiver of the package first
disputed with the clerk, the right of
the government to keep the ten cents
fee his company had placed on the
package bue he was directed to Mr..
Handley.
Abuses Government.
The government is collecting the
money under false pretenses. You
might have known where | was stay
ing. There is only one hotel here
decent for a commercial man. The

FLAGS BRING $146.30

The sale of small flags on Flag day
by the Woman's Relief Corps will be
made an annual affair This was de-
cided by the success of last Saturday.
A profit of $146.30 was made for use
in the relief of soldiers and widows OF
soldiers
Mrs. Charles Swain, chairman of
the committee in charge of relief work,
wishes publicly to thank the citizens
for the support given the movement.
The money will be used for a good
cause, she said, and the sale of flags
with be made an annual event, as it is
in many other cities.

an, who has been under the care of a
nurse at the expense of the w. r. c..

government has Il more right to that
ten cents than | have to all the money
in this town." the man declared with
emphasis.
Finally he decided that he could not
make the superintendent of mails dis
obey the postal rule of courteous and
respectful treatment of patrons at all
times" and left the building. Mr.
Handley told him to remove the wrap
per and sent it to the department at
Washington with a complain and he
might possibly secure a rebate.
Special delivery mail is a source of
bother to the postoffice. About 1000
pieces of special delivery mail are re-
ceived every month. OF the ten cent
fee, eight cents is for the messenger
and two cents for the sending office.
Many pieces Of special delivery mail
are addressed wrong and the mes
sengers and other employees go to I'M
deliverable trouble to deliver 1t.
Special delivery mail sent to general
delivery cannot be taken from the
ollice by the post office employees.

RESULTS OBTAINED
GAGE OF SUCCESS
Man Who Does More Than
Required Gets Promotion,
Says Rev. MIR. Bridge.

1T is not the name of the position
which indicates success, but the re-
suits which have been secured" Rev.
Bridge said at the Grace M. E. church
last night. whatever his position he
always does his best. One thinks the
position is beneath him; that it does
not afford an opportunity sufficient
for the exercise of his talents. An
other says it is the place in which to
make record and he acts according
ly with the inevitable result that he is
promoted
The faithlessness of men is not
only a shocking surprise, but also
likely to seriously affect one. That
man is contributing to his own I'M
happiness and failure who concludes
no man is to be trusted. However nu-
merOus bad men may be, there are
multitudes who are good. The man
who retains faith in men has pros
poets of promotion. The greatest
Christian as we'll as those who have
been successful in lfe's affairs made
the greatest sacrifices and overcame
the greatest hindrances.
Some seem quite content to do just
enough to be on the side of respect
ability; just enough to be classed as
Christians; just enough to get into
heaven. StalWart Christian, those who
are leaders in the church, those who
are like their Lord do much more
than that. The man who wins in life
is the one who is ready to do a little
more than is stipulated in the writing.
The fact is, usually it is the extra half
hour that secures the promotion.
Men can afford to risk disfavor and
even demOtion when they know that
they are right. They may suffer re-
verse but it will be temporary only.
Having not marred their character IN
the least the day of their reward will
come. Moral integrity is the basis of
every successful life.
Great men in the state, in society
and in the church gave God a promi-
nent place in their lives Some be-
little him as a factor in life, and in so
doing lose the greatest helper men
may have"

part of the service was the appearance
of the children of the primary depart
ment of the Sunday school, who at the
beginning Of the service marched down

First Methodist church yesterday in a
most delightful manner The decOra-
ton was the work OF DR.. and Mrs.

vines and flowers We're entWined. Pot
ted palms and ferns with a prOtusiOn
of flowers and song birds auued to the
realism of the scene. ne organ loft

program was arranged by Mrs. w. l..
FinfrOck and Miss Ella Luring and

tlan association were surprised when
he said that in sense Toxic is the

are not going to use the $4,000 Indi-
ana gets for salaries, but many states
expect to put the money to that use.
That Will mean that We will have to
compete with the other states for the
best men, as we will take only the
best men. The number of county
agents demanded will greatly increase.
Three Still Vacant.
"Of the thirty-three counties en-
titled to agents under the law the
first year, We still have three to fill,
but practically have these provided
for. There are now twenty seven
county agents at work. We have one
application for an agent as the first of
the second group OF thirty entitled I'M
der the law to an agent. Indications
are now that twelve or fourteen will
apply in short time, and these will
be filled October l, if it is possible to
secure agents by that time"
Mr.. Coleman conferred with County
superintendent Williams, County
Agent Cobb and Treasurer Chamness.
He did not announce the result of his
Investigations or findings. He inquir-
ed as to the probable vote of the cOun-
ty board of education on the matter
OF CObb'S retention, and as to the vote
OF the trustees in their organization,
The three resolutions on file at Pur-
due as passed by the county board of
trustees last October, November and
December, do not indicate the vote,
but are formal resolutions.
Requires Official Action.
Only an official "change Of mind"
can alter the situation as it now
stands. Purdue will not reappoint Mr..
Cobb unless the trustees indicate that
they are in favor Of him and will help
him in his work and the trustees will
not take this action.
When asked regarding the meaning
Of AN official change of mind Mr..
Coleman said he did not wish to elab-
crate upon the point. He did not indi-
cate whether a formal vote was meant
or merely the assurance that the truS-
tees will vote for the ratification of
CObb's appointment if it is made.
Under ordinary circumstances the
county agent is TeappOinted and the
reappOintment ratified sixty days be
fore the expiration OF the contract. Mr..
Coleman said Only fifteen days now
remain until Mr.. Cobb's contract with
the county expires.

FAILS TO OBSERVE
BIRTH OF FLAG

Richmond failed appropriately to
celebrate the birth of the American
flag yesterday. Few persons even had
a thought of the day. others, who did,
apparently thought it not worth while
to display their emblems- Only re"
bushes houses on Main street and
few residences were decorated. Per
haps twelve automobiles flew the flag
from their radiators.
