HIS BIRTHDAY

This is the birthday of E. w. Ste

bears his name. He is G7 years old.

desire to be up and doing something
quick. Newspaper work is the great
est work in the world
Mr.. Stephens agrees with Charles
ii. Grasty that it doesn't seem fair to
be receiving money for having such a
corking good time as the newspaper
man has earning his living.
Mr.. Stephens thinks that he is, with
possibly one exception, the oldest ma
tive born Columbian. He was born
here in 1919 and has lived here con-
tinuOusly ever since. His father came
to Columbia in 1913, opened up dry
goods store on April t. and continued
in business until April -. 1888. He

Amelia HOckaday of Fulton and lived

Leave it to them-something worth

they doing while the war is going OH? ?
Running taXicabs and washing up the
streets; caring for the sick and wound

haven't been filled before; sowing and

heads while their men folks" tear

it is said that never have there been
such cleanliness and courtesy in the
conduct of railroads as the public is
receiving at the hands of these women
After the war is over the women
who have homes to return to will re-

about making their living after the
eti.cient manner of women in all times

sentials and non-essentials, judgment
as to comparative value and enthusi-
asm for local betterment.
Columbia needs more public school
buildings, city hall, more pavements,
city parks. public Fairgrounds, city
reservoir and many other things. How
should the expenditure for these and
other public improvements be distrib-
uted? A city plan with a budget sys-
tenn would perhaps help to simplify
the problem. 1t would at least insure
that, in providing for one public i'm
provement, the less obvious. but no
less vital, needs of the city in other
directions will not be neglected.

ABOUT BUYING INTELLIGENTLY

Failure in the management of a
business is frequently due to the lack
of properly balanced expenditure.
The clothing merchant who BUYS too
heavily in one single line of goods

ly fail because he did not secure a
proper distribution of his funds in the
purchase of his stock
In the finances of city there is Of

for its miles of paved streets and great
white way while at the same time il
allows the contamination of the water
supply or the accumulation of garbage

the health of the citizens.
The city, like the merchant. must
pay more attention to the distribution

that the cost OF shoe production has

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Aug. 22.-Four Patrolman John Laufhutte here to- night, deserted a stolen automobile which contained a small arsenal, and escaped under a fusilade of shot from the revolver of the dying policeman. At late hour tonight the entire po- lice system of central Ohio was en- gagged in efforts to apprehend the gun men. under the belief that they may compose the gang which recently per petrated the Burrough Adding Ma chine Company holdup in Detroit
 The tragedy occurred when Patrol man Laufhutte found the men repair ing puncture in the tire of the auto mobile The machine bore no lights and the patrolman called the attention of the driver to the fact. He received no answer and threw his searchlight into the body of the car. The man stepping over the tire immediately opened fire. His second shot struck the officer near the heart. Laufhutte staggered back and opened fire as the men took flight. The bandits sep arated and disappeared although a crowd which quickly gathered took up the chase.
 In the car was found high power rifle with a large supply of cartridges four revolvers with ammunition and a quantity of ammunition for other weapons. The police are working or the theory that the gunmen were pre- pairing to commit crime in this city similar to the Detroit holdup
