NUMBER 29
Edgar Miller for Assessor

Although he has no opponent and there is no likelihood of any one opposing him for this his sec ond term, Edgar Miller of this city, has authorized us to place in our announcement column his announcement for reelection to the office of tax assessor of Woodruff County.
 We are pleased to state that Edgar is one who has made good not only to himself, but to the people who elected him two years ago to the assessors office. He has done his work faithfully, cor rectly and we'll and we know of no reason why he should have any opposition for reelection.
 MT. Miller does not ask for re- election because he is seeking second term, neither does he ask the peoples suffrage because of his being cripple, but if he has done his duty and is deserving of being returned to the office, (and he certainly does) then upon these terms he asks that you give him the office for another two years. He has proven himself qualified and competent and it is with great pleasure that we rec ommend his candidacy to the voters at the coming primary election in March.

In the proper column will be found the announcement of MT. Granville Wilson of DeView who is a candidate for the office of road overseer of this, DeView, Township, subject to the action of the Democratic primary.
 In presenting the name of Granville Wilson for overseer, we feel no hesitancy in saying that, if elected, he will attend to the duties of the office, imparti- ally and fairly to all parties concerned.

The subject of this sketch lays no claim whatever upon the voters for the creditable record made by his uncle, but we mere ly mention the above so that those with whom he is not ac- quainted may know who is ask ing for their suffrage. :.
 MT. Haralson is a native of Woodruff County, having spent bis entire life within her borders.

HOME DEPARTMENT
By MRS. JAMES c. TROUT

The work of organizing home de- partment classes in the Sunday schools is meeting with great success. Good reports are being sent in weekly Re- suits of these classes are now being felt in nearly every part of the city.
 For last year the following report was rendered by the Avondale Meth odist class:
 President, Mrs. A. " Mathis; secre- tary, Mrs. Alice Walker; treasurer, Mrs w. A. Griffin; number of mem bers in class, H. number of members in outside class 220 number of people, all ages, brought into Bible school in one year, 94; number of studied les- sons, 6016; number on honor roll, 207; number of visits made, 5672; number of phone calls. 40; offerings. $62.71; visits to sick 159; visits to strangers, 67; trays sent. 31; florals. S7; 10 bun dies of clothing Tven to Salvation Army and destitute families. A mem Der of the class gives young lady of Mill Village music lessons for the benefit of Wesley House Kindergarten The class has given three socials to the Mothers club" of Wesley House, consisting of readings. piano solos, songs by the Methodist quartet and music by the brotherhood orchestra. From such report can readily be seen the tremendous amount of good that can be accomplished in a prac- tical, systematical way, made possible by the organized home class.

INDIAN POWERPLUS 1917 MODEL HERE Robert Stubbs, Local Dealer, Receives Shipment of
 New Models
By ALLEN J. KREBs, Jr.

| The 1917 model of the Indian Powerplus
 motorcycle has arrived and is now on dis | play at the store of Bob Stubbs, 1905 1 Fourth avenue.
 'The attention of local devotees of the popular two-wheel pastime has been at tracted to the several new features which appear, good crowd having been pres
 ent at the store continuously since the said Robert -Stubbs.
 HThe 1917 Powerplus model of the 1n- dian comes out this year with five pig ref1nements which have already won the approval of those who have admired it's | classy lines or witnessed it's remarkable demonstrations of power and speed. Chief of these improvements is the new triple stem fork which more than doubles the strength and affords a secure double anchorage for the adjustable ham, dle bar The frame is also greatly strengthened by the new drop forged webbed head construction and tubing re- inforcement.
 ''The enlarged gasoline tank with ca- pacity of nearly four gallons is another distinctive improvement, and one which adds materially to the appearance of the new Indian.
 "A great improvement in the gear shift ing arrangements in which the shifting lever operates directly, pivoting from the east post cluster. This eliminates con-
 siderable lost motion common to other gearshifting devices, and makes the ac-
 tion easy, quick and posluve.
 The change in the 1917 Indian which will doubtless attract the most attention IS the departure in finish. This a choice of two colors will be offered The con- ventional Indian red is offered this year with the addition of a neat black panel striped with gold which adorns all flat exposed surfaces. It is a notable im- provement in the appearance of the 1n- dian, lending dignity and grace to the lines of the whole machine which the plain red could not impart The second choice is the olive drab finish, likewise striped in black and gold, for which many riders have expressed a prererence.
 The Powerplus Motor which was such an astounding success in the 1916 season comes out in the 1917 model with only minor changes It Is once again the same powerful, silent, smooth running, master motor which proved itself so thoroughly last year. It develops from 16 to 1S-horse power, and is capable of speeds varying from three to 70 miles per hour Economy of operation is the added charm that Powerplus can truth fully claim.
 With It's new dress-up, the 1917 Indian will prove one of the most popular modela of the new season."
