BANDS SUNDAY CONCERT

The first of a series of concerts
given by the Medina band last Sunday
afternoon at the Princess Theater was
successful from an artistic standpoint.
but as financial success it fell woe
fully short. Why the attendance was
not larger is hard to explain. The
concert was properly advertised and
the erstwhile encouraging attitude of
the people generally toward the band
seemed to give promise that apublic
concert would receive the generous pat
ronage. The stormy day doubtless
kept many away, and it may be that
others were deferred from attending
through misapprehension that the
concert might not be in conformance
with the spirit of Sunday.
But it should be said in strict ius-
tice to the band, that the entire con-
cert was one to which no one could
justly object, and was played in a
manner to reflect credit upon all
those who participated.
The band appreciates the valuable
assistance at the concert Of Editor Sui
Tiger and DR.. Hard of Seville, Harry
Lincoln Of Brunswick and Orvin Sabin
Of Cleveland, all excellent musicians.
We understand the band will give
3 second concert the latter part Of
January.

BUSINESS MEN GIVE
SECRET Of SUCCESS

What, in your Judgment and .ex-
perience, is the secret of success ?"
Key, H. Samuel Fritsch, pastor Of the
Congregational church, put the above
question to number of Medina,s sue
cessful business men. Out of the re-
plies received he built last Sunday
nights sermon, "The Secret of Sue
cess" Here are some of the typical
answers received:
perseverance, manliness, honesty.
Treat your fellowman as you want
him to treat YOU"
Waste no energy on pursuits which
are not worth while, but choose and
resolutely follow the best"
Work, hard, constant, unremittine
work.
"A definite aim or ideal"
Everlasting persistence that meets
and overcome seemingly insurmount-
able obstacles"
"Do not worry"
BE definite, specific, decisive"
Keep out of ruts. Be original. Cut
out musty precedents. Avoid the
beaten path. Dare to blaze your own
new trail. Think for yourself"
BE optimistic-start something"
Don't be has-been, or going-to-
be, but an isser ia result getter.)"
Learn to do some definite thing
and do that one thing better than the
other fellow"
work on when others are weary"
One man submitted the following
quotation: "In olden times a man
could be Jack-of-all-trades. Now he
must be a Jack-of- one and a cracker
jack at that"
A very large congregation was
present to hear this sermon, and a
considerable portion of the audience
was made up of business men. The
last sermon of the "Life's Great Sc
crets" series will be preached next
sunday night the subject being, "The
Secret of Happiness" This sermon
Will touch on the duty of being hap
py; the hard lot of the growler, the
scowler, the howler, the grumbler, and
the crouch; the relation between
worry and wrinkles; the cause and
cure of the "blues;" the mystic of
happiness; Christ's secret of happi-
ness.

SCHOOL CODE HELD
CONSTITUTIONAL

Constitutionality of the school code
passed in 1914 was upheld by the court
of appeals for Holmes county, accord
ing to the decision announced in Col
umbus Monday. The court held that
members of the county board of edu-
cation are not actually county officers,
since their jurisdiction does not in
clude city school districts in any coun
ty, and, therefore, need not be elected
by popular vote. The constitution
provides that all county officers shall
be elected by the people. Members of
county boards of education are ap-
pointed by presidents of all district
boards within the county, and the law
was attacked as unconstitutional on
this basis. The decision of the court
was unanimous.

MARRIAGE OF MISS NICHOLS

Remembering her only as "a little
gifl while her father was pastor Of
the local Congregational church sever
al years ago, many friends will be
haplily surprised to learn that Miss
Helen Nichols, daughter of Rev. j. r.
Nichols, will be married ON Friday
evening, Dec. "a, to DIR. Eugene Por-
ter of Boston. After leaving Medina
Rev. Nichols went to Marietta, O.,
later accepting charge at Rogers
Park Chicago, his present pastorate.
Miss Hahen, whose youthful years in
Medina hatokened a successful future,
has measured up to the fMll expsdta
ton of friends. At an early age she
evineed a deep interest In the ilanguag-
es. From one college to another she
progressed, finally securing scholar
ship IN Oxfond university, England.
She is NOW recognized as am authority
on Hebrew, as we'll as most of the
Semitic Languages. In letters to Me-
dina friends, in which she writes ioy-
ously of her coming marriage, Miss
Nichols shows her natural womanly
instincts have in no way been blunted
by her years Of close application to
subjects that but comparatively few
find it not difficult to be interested in.

C0PLEY and BATH
TO FIGHT PAVING

That the officials OF Bath and Cop
ley townships plan to fight the pro-
posed road SO far as the section along
the boundary line of those two town.
ships is concerned, was the report car
ried to the county commissioners on
Monday. That board has included
the paving of this road in it's 1916
estimates and as it is an inter-county
road, expect assistance from the state
to finance it.
The commissioners were astounded
at the story that opposition was de-
veloping and while declaring that they
did not believe it had foundation, de-
cided to take no chances that it might
be true.
The result was a tentative feeling
out of the situation by resolution
asking Bath trustees to prepare and
file the necessary petition to insure
Baths residents to pay it's seven and
half per cent of the cost.

WILL sing CAROLS
TO SICK and INFIRM

The Community" Christmas idea
has taken a tangible form in Medina
this year, probably little more so
than in previous years. Not that our
people have ever lacked in the Xmas
spirit toward the less fortunate, but
there is going to be something done
this year that is different than has
been done before and something which
will carry with it cheer korn of the
Almighty. It is the cheer of music
Of song.
There will be a community Xmas
tree in the park around which the
singers-pupils of the village schools,
will assemble, before starting out on
their mission Of good will, the young
voices shouting song messages to
those who through sickness or other
troubles are unable to leave their
houses. A lighted candle in the win
dow will serve as beacon for the
singers as they go from house to
house with their paeons of rejoicing.
The singers later will return to the
park where again the carol tones will
ascend Heavenward as advent of the
coming of Christmas morn.
Mrs. Zoe Prouty Boult, supervisor of
music in the public schools, will have
charge of the coral singing Christmas
eve and has the promise of generous
hearted citizens who own autos that
they will guarantee the carriage of
the happy coralists to the various
homes.
The singing of carols at Christmas
time is not new custom. The Xmas
carol is song or hymn which was
generally sung in the open air in cell
ebration of Christmas. They were not
always of sacred character and those
of jovial kind were sometimes sung
at the Christmas board. The custom
of singing Christmas carols dates from
very early period and in the early
Middle Ages became very popular,
when the clergy and people joined in
the singing, which was accompanied by
dancing and the music of various in
struments. Those carols with which
the dawn of Christmas is now ushered
in the United States and Great Britain
are generally religious.

IDEAL XMAS WEATHER

From present indications one is JUST
fed in expecting almost an ideal holi-
day season. The past two days have
had the genuinely Christmas touch,
and with bob sleds and cutters shoot
ing about town and the magic sound
of sleighbells one could almost see
Santa Claus standing in front of each
store. The fine Christmas weather
has put pep into everybody and every
thing and the big bargains offered by
many merchants through the Sentinel
are sufficient to make one drewl at the
mouth. Our readers will make 10 mis-
take by reading the advertisements in
the Sentinel and promptly acting up
on the many and valuable suggestions
found therein. Don't think of buy
ing your Christmas presents else
where when you can find just what you
want right here in Medina.

MADONNA NYE SIZES
GAZETTE FOR $1,000

On Tuesday The Medina Gazette
Co.. as a corporation and VIM. Baldwin
and Louis F. Carver, individually,
were made defendants in a suit for
$4,000 damages, fled by M. B. Put
ney, attorney for Madonna .Nye, who
claims tnat the publication of certain
statements by the defendants in their
newspaper of Nov. 25, were .untruth-
full and malicious and that her alleged
erstwhile good character was be-
smirched thereby to the extent Of the
above named amount.
In her petition plaintiff racites the
entire article which appeared in the
Gazette and which purported to be an
account of a breach of promise suit
tried in Cleveland and in which Mrs.
Nye was plaintiff. The petition spec
ifies, however, the following headlines:
"Mrs. Nye swears, but ber testi-
mony under oath proves to be no
good"'.
Sensation develops in hearing at
Cleveland in her breach of promise
suit"
"Mrs. Madonna Nye has succeeded
in creating another sensation"
Another quotation to which Mrs.
Nye objected was: Judge Vickery lost
no time in making an order to compel
Mrs. Nye to give bail for the costs at
no later day than Dec. 6 and also took
occasion to score her in no uncertain
terms for her claims to residence in
county and her testimony
under oath which had proved to be
false"

ALMOST A FIRE

Last Friday evening just as he was
about to settle himself comfortably
for the evening, Ben Waters happen
ed to glance out Of a rear window in
his home on West Liberty street and
discovered volume of smoke issuing
from the barn in the rear, where Ben
keeps his two Fords. Hastily tele-
phoning Mr.. McGinnis, who had the
keys to the barn, Mr.. Waters rushed
out and spying crowbar, proceeded
to remove the barn doors. About the
time this was accomplished Mr.. Nc
Ginnis arrived and the two Of them
made search Of the barn but failed
to discover any fire. By following
the trail of smoke they finally dis
covered thatsa blanket which had been
used to cover one Of the Ford radi-
ators had in some way caught fire and
was sending forth smudge. After
wiring Henry Ford, they proceeded to
put out the fire. Aside from a burnt
wire or two the machine suffered no
damage.

PLEADS GUILTY To
SERIOUS CHARGE

Many from Medina village and 9TH
der .partsAof the county were in Cleve-
land yesterday in attendance at the
hearing of M. d. Kimmel of Medina,
charged with contributing to the de-
.linHuency of Ida Lee, alleged to have
been under 16 years Of age. The
case had been continued twice.
Since the change first was made
against Kimmel there had been ques-
ton as to how old the girl is. "A
chain Of evidence linked together by
Rrcsecuting Attorney Underwood and
the Cuyahoga probation officer was
sufficient to prove Thursday afternoon
that the Lee girl is under eighteen,
Nwhereupon Kim1nel changed his form
ter plea Of mot guilty" to that of
guilty" Judge Addams reserved
sentence on Kimmel for two weeks.
The minimum sentence which kim
mel could receive is $40, the maximum
$1,000 and year in the workhOuse.
William Coleman, twenty, and John
Coleman, twenty-five, brothers and
Leo Richards, twenty-one, Cleveland
youths, also arraigned on the clrarge
of contributing to the delinquency of
the Lee girl, changed their pleas from
mot guilty" to 1sguilty". Judge Ad-
dams passed their sentence over to
next Thursday.
Attorney Underwood and the proba-
ttion officer had canvassed records at
st. Joseph's and Cleveland Christian
orphan asylurns, Lorain county orThan
;asylums, and the Medina county in
Urinary, where the girl had been an
Inmate at different times to show that
she was sixteen July 20, 1915. Mr..
and Mrs JAS Fordham, Brunswick,
adopted the girl a year ago. They say
she is under eighHeen. The ree0rds
from the probate Judges record in
Lorain showed her birth as July 20,
1899; this testimMpy being accepted as
proof in court
A letter from Mes. C. R. LaRce of
Dayton also says the girl is only six
teen. Mrs. LaRoeis parents attempt
edsto adopt the girl when she was but
three years old sA VI
She went to Cleveland September
4, and roomed on the West Side. she
admitted she was notseighteen.
When started ID school, Iasked,
my fatse koR Old ssgas and he told
me ! was born July .29, 1899," she
said. II didn't want ito appear so
young, SO I told people I was year
Older, but know / am not eighteen
Evidence at the trial was mostly of
ia technical nature, establishing the
age of the girl. But twoWut of an al
legged eighteen spicy letters were intro
,huced.

ANNUAL STATE GRANGE
MEETING At ELYRlA

The splendid work of the Ohio gran
gers in municipal, state, county and
national affairs was freely praised in
the various speeches a. the opening
sessions Of the forty-third annual Ohio
state grange convention at Elyria on
Tuesday.
Forward" was the motto unani-
mously adopted at the convention. The
sessions continued Wednesday and
Thursday.
Over 900 Of the expected 1850 and
possibly 1900 delegates were on hand

arrive for the biggest day of the con-
ventiAn.
ALI the state officers with the ex-
ception of Steward W. M. Creswell, Of
MI. Gilead, answered the roll call, he

been ninety-two oranges organized
four juveniles. The secretary re-
ported that on the 1st day of Octo-
Der there were TBS subordinate grang-
eS with a membership of $3.50.
"This indicates a net gain of over
800 the past year. The growth of
nearly 20 percent is about as much
new material as can safely be incor-
porated during the year."

The Medina county poultry show
which will open at the Odd Fellows
hall in Medina, Dec. % and continuing
to the 25th inclusive promises to be
the greatest poultry show ever held lin
Medina. Fanciers from all parts of
the state are talking about this show
and are asking for premium lists and
entry blanks and many Medina county
farmers are beginning to realize that
well-bred focks shnuld be on every
farm and that there is much more
pleasure as well as profit in handling
pure-bred stock of any kind than there
is in handling mongrels.
The Ohio State University will have
an exhibit at this show and an at
.tendent who will give information how
to make profit on poultry kept in
the back yard or on the farm. This
feature alone will he worth great
deal to every person interested in max
ing money from poultry,
The poultry products of the United
States amount to over billion dollars
per annum. Is Medina county getting
her share of that hillim ;dollarss If so,
more than twice as much could be
easily gained.
Attend the show not only for the
pleasure that you will have in looking
over the many fine birds that will be
there, but also from AN educational
Standpoint Jndga J. e Gaalt or
the University representative for any
information you desire regarding
poultry raising or poultry keeping.
