INDIANA'S RED Heads
FORM BIC ORGANIZATION

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 2s.-Red hair
of all descriptions, shading from what
might be termed light pink TO the
color Of FIRE. and then into deeper
shades, was TO be seen at Broad Rip
pie Park Saturday afternoon. when
the first annual convention of Indiana
Red Heads" was held. II is doubt
full there has ever been so much red
in Broad Ripple, unless on the Fourth
of July or other holiday when the
gayly colored bunting is hung out.
The picnic was primarily for Red
Heads" OF Indiana, but others Of vari-
out States participated. Speeches
were made by some of the most prom
inent of the Red Heads" and officers
we're elected The organization will
be permanent.
So great was the success of the
novel picnic that IL was voted TO have
another next August at the same
place. An effort will be made to in
] crease the membership.

WHY IS LEXINGTON FIRM?
Because Its Citizens Have Learned the
Truth,

After reading this generous and
encouraging report from Mr.. Barry,
those who have the misfortune to
suffer, as he did, will naturally long
to Get similar relief. But to get the
same good as Mr.. Barry had, you
should get the same remedy. There
are, of course, other kidney pills,
but there are no other kidney pills
the same as Doan's. That is why
Lexington people demand the gen
uine.
W. v. Barry, editor of The Proc
REss. Jackson street. Lexington,
says: i have recommended Doan's
Kidney Pills before and am glad to
do so again. From time to time
since | first learned of this fine med
icine, | have had occasion to take
it for kidney disorders and have
always had satisfactory results
Price Soc, at all dealers. Don't
simply ask for a kidney remedy
get Doan's Kidney Pills-the same
that Mr.. Barry had. Foster-Milburn

Overdrafts in all National banks
for the past three months at the
first Of May amounted to nearly
seven million dollars.

1t was the intention Of this paper
last week to mention the presence
!, of two men in Lexington-Messrs.
Walker and Judson-- who insisted
that Lexington was entitled to free
delivery Of mail and that all the
citizens had to do to secure free de-
livery was to have the town prop
erly surveyed and the houses num-
bered. After putting some ques-
tions to the two and offering. with
out cost to them, to apply to our
member Of Congress for information
as to whether Lexington is in the
class Of towns ready for free deliv-
cry, Messrs. Walker Of Indiana, and
Judson of Chicago, moved on, not
caring to prosecute their work in a
town where opposition developed.
The truth Of the business is that
this town is not entitled to free de-
livery and the men proposing to
survey the town and number the
houses at DO cents each, were seek
ing the work under misrepresenta-
ton, which was fortunately discov-
cred before the people spent any
money. MessrS. Walker and Jud-
son must be supplied with a dandy
supply of street names as they in
formed us that they had received
as high as SIS to 500 for furnish,
ing a list of names for streets in
towns putting on free delivery

If the Congressional committee
of this, the Eighth congressional
district could have had in advance
the deliverance credited as coming
from Jackson and from Prof. r. l..
Bynum, a valuable lot Of time and
money might have been saved
and especially for Congressman
Sims, who would have been en-
abled thereby to refrain from max
ing foolish effort to again secure
the Democratic nomination to sue
coed himself, which is generally re-
garded as being equivalent to cleo
ton. A Jackson correspondent Of
the Nashville Tennesean and Amer
lean states in that paper in the
issue Of last Friday that Dudley
Porter is going to beat Mr.. Sims
5000 votes in Madison county
alone. In view of the fact, former
ly reported from Jackson, that out
of a possible $4,000 votes in Madi-
son county, 1000 have disqualified
themselves by failure to pay poll
tax 80 days before the August elec-
ton (and the congressional primary
which falls on the same day. we
can but wonder how Prot. Bynum
ever won his grade in mathematics.
The fact Of the business is that
Prof. Bynum Gf he is guilty. has
been doing some talk simply for
the purpose of hearing the revebera-
ton thereof, and in our opinion,
Professor Bynum is going to fall
as far short lin his congressional
primary representation as he did
in his calculation to be appointed
to the superintendency Of the poll
tics" school at Cookeville.

OBITUARY..

of Wiley 7. and Nancy Harris Of
Madison county. was born April Is,
1874, and as the beloved wife of
Thomas H. Winslow, passed to her
final reward, at the home in which
she had livedfor nearly so years,
in THE old 7th district of Henderson
county, seven miles northwest Of
Lexington, at the hour of 8 p. m,
Friday, July IA, 1915.
On the 9th Of October, 1865. Miss
Harris was happily married to Mr..
7. H. Winslow and together, under
difficulties, they began to fight the
battles Of life, which were honor
ably won in the fact that they sue
ceeded in rearing large family Of
children and making in their COM
munity name which has entitled
them to the esteem of all.
To the union Of our Subject and
Mr.. Winslow, ten children were
born, Of whom nine survive, viz.
Alison G., Thomas L., Walter E., j.
R., Robert G., W. Vance, Jennie,
now married to Hugh j. Wilson;
Fannie, now married to William
Taylor, and Cora, now married to
Orzo Wilson. The sons are all men
Of family except Vance, who mar
ried Miss Nettie Cunningham, and
lost her March a, 1914, and in the
Summer Of that year enlisted in
the United States Navy.
In the year 1865, Mrs. Winslow
protested religion and joined the
Southern Methodist church, of which
communion she remained a MEM
be until her death. The remains
were inferred at Bethel last Satur-
day in the presence of a host of
relatives and friends, Rev. |. M.
King, her pastor, officiating.
1t had not been our good fortune
to know Mrs. Winslow personally
more than in a passing way, but
we know enough Of her life as a
wife, mother, friend and neighbor,
as well as in all other relations, to
state that she was entitled to be
classed as one of the noble and
worthy women Of the world. The
good standing Of her children, all of
whom but one reached maturity and
married is sufficient proof that she
had directed them in the way to
make them honored, and respected
men and women. She played in
life's drama q part that can be
equaled by no other and her life
here with the multitudiness respon-
sibilities, which were met as she
met them, builded for her a monu-
ment which no marble shaft can
equal. To the devoted husband
and children who loved her with
an abiding affection, we offer all
that human sympathy can feel.
Time, the Great Healer, alone. can
soften the sorrow Of their loss, but
they can find consolation in the
knowledge that she has gone to the
reward which God has always
ready for a good woman.
Mrs. Winslow was a second
cousin to Isham G. Harris, the
war governor Of Tennessee and la
ter senator Of the United States;
also to the late Rev. w. I. Harris.
