Figures of rather startling proper
tions have appeared in the metropolitan
press within the past week, to-wit: The
Ford Motor Co., of Detroit, has $27,-
600, 900 cash on deposit in various banks
and the war is costing Great Britain
$4,000 per day. The Ford Co. s
cash box seems large, but it would
finance Britain's army less than week.
Last Saturday night and on several
other evenings recently DRINKS and
hoodlums have made themselves spec
tally obnoxious to decent people, who
happened to be upon the streets. The
marshal made commendable and finally
effective efforts to repress these peo-
pie but some of them will undoubtedly
need to be dealt with severely in order
to learn that they cannot run the town.
Meeks & Wirth have this week put
in fine dust proof cabinet for the care
and display of their large stock of
ladies' and gents ready to wear cloth
ing. They handle the famous "Cloth-
craft" line, which is one of the very
best made in this country, and is ex-
tensively advertised and sold in all the
big cities. These garments are abso-
lutely guaranteed and are sold at popu-
: lar prices. adv.
Jones & Haven's farm team made a
pretty and lucky runaway Tuesday.
They started from the rear of the store,
where Roll Covert had left them mo-
ment unhitched. They headed straight
for home, gathering speed as they
went and pig in crate in the wagon
box was given the ride of its life. The
horses turned into the barnyard at
home jerking the tongue out of the
wagon as it struck post, beyond which
there was no damage.
Several relics have been brought to
