FIGHT CYCLE ORDER

Bold action has been taken by all
those interested in the motorcycle to
combat the recent order of Post
master-General Burleson, prohibiting
the use of the "two-wheeler" in R. F.
D. service after January 1, next. All
of the three cycle trades bodies,
which convened at Atlantic City dur
ing the first week in August, took ac-
ton in the matter, with the result
that the R. P. D. riders themselves at
their convention at Detroit last week,
have seen fit to commend the work
of the two wheeler in their service
to Postmaster General Burleson and
the fourth assistant postmaster-gener-
al, who is in direct charge of this
branch of service
The better than 5000 R. F. D. men
who are affected by the order are
writing direct to their senators and
congressman on the matter as we'll as
to the powers that be" in the post
office. While all of the objections
which the acknowledgement pro-
pounded to the use of the two wheel
er" cannot be gainsaid, yet, that the
motorcycle with van attached has the
capacity, dura bility and reliability re-
quired for work of this sort, while at
the same time the mail matter is fully
protected against exposure to the ele.
ments, is not to be denied.

They include rheumatism. catarrh.

boils. ulcers, running sores, inflamed
eyes. and enlarged glands, down to
sick headache and a muddy or sallow
complexion. The prescription OF DR..

most powerful alternative. or blood

OBJECTION SUSTAINED,

Dear MISS CarOtherS:
I am engaged to young man who
does not live in my home city. The
engagement has not been announced
as we have preferred to defer the an
nouncement until near the date Sc
lected for the wedding There Is a
young man who calls on me quite fire..
quently but there is nothing sentimen-
tai in our friendship. AS long as our
engagement is not announced do YOU
think my fiance has any right to OBJ
ject to the attentions of this other
man.
TROUBLED.
Your fiance has every ground in the
world for Directing to the attentions of
this other man. When you promised to
be his wife you indicated that he was
the only man in the world for whose
affections you cared. If you really love
him frequent calls by this other young
man would not give you any pleasure.
You must realize too that among
young unmarried persons of opposite
sex there is no friendship, expressed
frequent visits, which is void of senti-
ment. If you can not remain true to
your sweetheart and accepted lover
now, perhaps you do not love him as
you should. The fact that the engage
ment has not been announced makes
no difference. 1t is not public opinion
that you are to govern your life by but
your own conscience and the happi-
ness of your prospective husband.

Early City
History:
Contributions on the Early
Days of Richmond Will
Appear in This Column
Daily.

John Foulke who is SO years old and
who has lived in Richmond all his life
says that the grave of John Smith.
who laid out the city, il located in
the Old Orthodox cemetery on North
Tenth street, where the Whitewater
church now stands
The grave is unmarked and will per-
haps, never be located for in those
days there were no tombstones and
there is no one living today who
knows the exact spot where Smith S
body lies.
According to Mr.. Foulke there were
but three cemeteries in the city a
hundred years ago.
One was the Orthodox, another
was known as the Hicksite and was
on the site of Starr park and the third
was known as the Seventh street bury
ing grounds where the park is now 10.
Gated.
According to. Mr.. Foulke the bodies
were never removed form the ground
when the plots were used for other
purposes and the bones of Richmond
earliest settlers are being run over
by the. children of the present day in
their play.
An incident related by Mr.. Foulke
that is interesting is that sixty years
ago Sam Pierce was the leading mer-
chant of the city and he was consid'
cred extravagant because he burned
two candles in his store every Satur-
day night, while the other store-keep-
ers burned but one.

tions, disturbing as little possible, but helping
by every means this development
DR.. Montessoris particular contribution to
the world, according to Miss George, has been
that of applying the methods OF experimental
science to the study of man. The Montessorl
"didactic material it is explained, tends to re-
place the teacher at the earliest stage OF educa-
ton and to make it possible for the child to
accomplish his first work Independently OF ma
ture mind. "Out of such experiments and the
environment that DR.. Montessori establishes"
declares Miss George, "she confidently expects
others to bring fresh facts, and to build up the
content of scientific pedagogy through method
of research, limited by personality, allied
solely to human beings who develop in liberty
AS instance of the capitalization of senti-
ment and effort in connection with the Monies
sori movement, Miss George describes the organ
ization in May, 1913, at Washington, of the Mon
tessori Educational Association, formed "to pro-
mote and develop in America the educational
movement based on the principles and theories
of DR.. Montessori, and to assist in the establish
ment and maintenance of schools for children,
and schools of observation and practice conduct
ed according to these principles" This associa-
ton now numbers approximately 700 members.

As RESPONSIBLE FOR
SMALL WAGES PAID

CHICAGO, Aug. 2S.-That the pres
ent industrial unrest that has assum-
ed menacing proportions in the Unit
ed States is due largely to low wages
and the Oppressive methods that are
used by employers" and that respon-
sibility for the conditions as they ex-
list, lies most entirely with the wage
workers themselves, are the outstand-
ing features of statement made pub
lie today by Frank P. Walsh. chair
man OF the federal commission on in
dustrial relations.
was in the form of a supplemental re-
port, and it will be presented to con-
gress along with the other reports
of the commission that have been
made public during the last few
days.
WaIsh's Statement.
In part Mr. Walsh's statement says:
Charged with an investigation to
discover the underlying causes of dis
satisfaction in the industrial situation,
we herewith present the following
findings and conclusions, and we urge
for them the most earnest considera-
ton, not only by the congress. but
by the people of the nation, to the
end that evils which threaten to de-
feat American ideals and to destroy
the we'll being of the nation may be
generally recognized and effectively
attacked.
I'VE find the basic cause Of indus
trial dissatisfaction to be low wages,
or stated in another way: The fact
that the worries of the nation,
through compulsory and oppressive
methods, legal and illegal, are denied
the full product of their toll"

more than his salary. He is not a
burden to the taxpayers, but in reality
a money saver. The Old Trails Road
association believes men like Jones
ought to receive the hearty commend
alton of the whole public, and his
worth ought to be appreciated and
recognized.
Jones Works Hard.
Compare for moment the condi-
ton of the roads in other counties and
in other states with the splendid high
ways of Wayne county, and you are
forced to conclude that a man knows
something about road repair and main
tenance in guiding the work that is
being done to keep the highways in
such excellent shape.
Jones has made a study of the
road problem in this county. His
views on road repair, method of con-
Quoting the work and of materials that
ought to be used have been widely
quoted in magazines. Mr.. Jones Is a
bigger man outside Of Wayne county
than in the county itself. He does not
force himself into the limelight, but
the public is beginning to see that
this quiet man is a patriot, and an
official who is doing great service for
the county"

"Mr. Jones takes his work seriously
and not as political job which he will
relinquish soon. His heart is in his
work, and he goes on the theory that
the good work he is doing for the
country will be a more permanent

commandment for the

The third commandment for the
husband is:
Thou shalt be a good worker.
Work is the prime requisite for
success in any line OF endeavor. In
spired work brings results: results
mean money; money means comforts
available; comforts help to make the
home happy. This of course is true If
love exists in the home.
The man who can assume the re.
sponsibility of supporting a wife and
family without being inspired to re-
double his efforts to provide for them,
either is not really in love or does not
deserve the devotion Of a loyal wom-
an. He should be spurred on to great
er achievements. When he took her to
be his wife her life became so closely
knit with his that he is the greatest
single factor determining her future.
The good husband will not only find
pleasure in working at the office for
his wife. but will get undreamed of
pleasure from performance of tasks
about the house. which will help
make it and its surroundings neat and
homelike.
