 NEW SERIAL TO APPEAR
 SOON AT GEM THEATRE

Manager Hardy of the Gem theater has arranged to offer his patrons be- ginning Wednesday, Nov. 18th. the great new motion picture novel, "Gloria's Romance" in which Billie Burke, famous star of the speaking stage, has been engaged at q salary of Si,000 per week to play the leading role. The story is from the pen of Mr. and Mrs. Rupert Hughes, authors of innumerable novels, and is said to be a sosciety romance with scenes laid at Palm Beach, Florida, and in the homes of the wealthy along River side Drive, New York City. Manager Hardy states that the cost of the film Is considerably above what he ordi- nariIy has to pay for film service, but he feels that the attraction is in every respect so excellent that it is well worth the higher price.

The merchants are reaping their share of the benefits, and very little of the goods are' being sold on time, which speaks well for our farmers, old debts have been wiped out and no new ones are being made.

THE body Of William H. Fisher, who died on
Wednesday, this afternoon consigned to
its last resting place. The death. Of Mr. Fisher
was one Of the most deporable incidents in the
history Of the community and one which touched the
heart Of every citizen Driven to distraction by worry
over the local postoice case moment of consumate
nervous depression and despair. he took his life.
That Mr. Fisher was complete physical and
tai breakdown, superinduced by nervous strain and
worry; that he did not realize the act he commit
ting, is admitted by ALL - Il
1t for person to what the last thoughts
Of Mr.. Fisher were; what gave him the greatest dis.
and actions caused him the keenest mental
suffering and primarily led him to take his life. Be-
fore the Judgment bar in the last great reckoning Will
liam H. Fishers final earth will be recorded
against him, for he knew not what he doing; but
just will call account all those who had part in
torturing the life and soul out of fellow man.
The sympathy Of the entire community goes out to
Mr. Fishers family in the hour of their tribulation
