While Plainville thus far has re-
fused to follow the lead of other
places in the state for a safe and sane
celebration of the Fourth, the con-
ditions under which the holiday will
be observed this year give rise to the
opinion that the town will be more
quiet than usual.
The selectmen are specializing as to
whether Piainville's generators will
observe Saturday or Sunday as "the
night before" They have decided,
however, to prepare for eventualities,
and extra officers will be on duty both
nights. The squad of constables will
be augmented for the occasion and
number of special policemen will be
sworn in for the occasion
Guards will be placed at the
churches to prevent over enthusiastic
celebrators from ringing the bells, and
the discharging of firearms before the
time prescribed by law will be pro-
hibited.

Clark to defend him.
Mr.. Clark appeared with Adams
in the justice court Adams waived
the preliminary examination and was
bound over to the circuit court.
Prosecuting Attorney o. L. Smith
has made a very thorough investiga-
ton of the killing of Sullivan. He
was present at the coroner's inquest,
heard all of the evidence and has
talked with many of the witnesses
and has found considerable new evil
dence.
Attorney Clark, who will represent
Adams, says so far as he is concerned,
the case can be heard at the January
term of court.
Adams is apparently in good health
and his confinement in the county Jail
evidently agrees with him. He is ap-
parently not worried because of the
serious charges made against him and
believes that he will be cleared.-St.

How We Get the News

Day before yesterday a perfectly
nice lady called us up and with tears
in her voice reproved us for not men,
tioning the fact that she had had a
friend visiting her last week. We
told her that she had not let us know
anything about it and that therefore,
we did not know that she had visi-
tor. Then she said, "Well you should
have known. / thought you were run
ming newspaper" Wouldn't that
rattle your Stats? Some people think
that an editor ought to be cross be-
tween Argus and Anna Eva Fay.
They seem to think that our five SEN
ses are augmented by a sixth that
lets us know everything that happens
even if we see, hear, feel, taste or
smell it not. Dear lady, editors are
only human or at least, almost hu-
man. If you have friend visiting
you, if you are going away, or have
returned from a visit out of town,
if Johnnie falls and breaks his arm,
if your husband chops his toe instead
of stick of wood, if anything hap
pens that makes you glad, or sad, or
happy, or mad, call us up. Tell us
about it. That's the way to get it
in the paper-Antrim County News.
