BEN NlNGT8N PEOPLE
GETS INSTANT ACTION

Those who have used it in Benning-
ton are astonished at the INSTANT
action OF simple buckthorn bark, gly-
cerine, etc, as mixed in Adler.i.ka.
Because 1t acts ON BOTH lower and
upper bowel, ONE SPOONFUL Adler
i-ka relieves almost ANY Case of con-
stipation, sour stomach or gas. 1t re.
moves such surprising foul matter
that few doses often relieve or pre-.
vent appendicitis. A short treatment
helps chronic stomach trouble. w.

Lightfoot's Baby Dies

A mention was made in last
weeks issue that the little son of
Mr.. and Mrs. S. R. Lightfoot of
Weldon was very i'll and it is our
sad duty this week to chronicle
the death of the little one.
Little William was but two
months and twenty-one days old
at the time of his death. The past
month the little one had been very
i'll and everything possible had
been done for him. He was taken
to the hospital at Glendive, a cou-
pie weeks ago, but gradually be-
came worse and was taken to
Circle where last Friday afternoon
he breathed his last.
Interment took place at the local
cemetery on Saturday afternoon.
Rev. Thomlinson officiating.
To the bereaved parents the
Banner joins in extending condol-
ence.

Valdon Gets $500 Fine, 60 Days In Jail

Selmer Valdon of this place was
arrested and lodged in Jail last
Saturday on a charge of disturb
ing the peace and disorderly con-
duct, upon a complaint made by
Guy C. Stephens.
Hearing was held before Justice
of the Peace ]. K. Lowell last Mon
day evening and defendant enter
ed a plea of not guilty, and jury
trial was held. C. R. Miller ap-
peared on behalf of the state,
while defendant did not want any
legal assistance.
At the hearing quitea number of
witnesses were called to testify
and the jury found him guilty.
Justice Lowell then gave him a
fine of $500 and costs and sem
fenced him to sixty days in the
county Jail. Mr.. Valdon was TAX
en- to Glendive last Wednesday.
1t appears that Mr.. Valdon had
indulged in "High-Balls" quite
freely the past few week and be-
came quite talkative, in fact so
much so, that the jury and judge
evidently thought it would do no
harm and perhaps teach him a
lesson to spend a couple months
in the county Cooler.

Carl Sorg Writes Banner

The editor received the follow
ing letter and a nice Xmas card
from our old friend Carl Sorg a
few days ago, and we take great
pleasure in publishing his letter.
Carl, it will be remembered, was
the first one from Circle, to volun-
teer his services to Uncle Sam, and
his many friends here will indeed
be glad to hear that he is making
good. Write again Carl, and good
luck to you:

Ben M. Larson,
Dear Friend:
| want to write and thank you
for the paper you are sending to
me. You may be sure that ap-
preciate it very much and look
forward to its coming as if it were
letter from home. When | sit
down to read it can almost ina
gine that | am back in Circle
again, though | would not change
places for the world.
like the navy fine, it is won
derful place and wish I could tell
you all about everything that is
being done here. | am sure it
would be very interesting to you
and everybody else, but everything
is secrecy here and all out going
mail from the navy yards is CEN
sured, so that nothing of import
ance is let out.
| am doing very well myself and
will receive my appointment as
second class petty officer some
time next month. You may be
sure that l shall appreciate it very
much, for those ratings are not
scattered around very liberal in
the navy, they have to be earned.
| wish you could see the Blue
Jackets in their drills and exercises
as it sure is a sight for sore eyes,
and sore heads as well. 1t makes
one feel proud to be an American.
We are not so very far from
Camp Lewis or American Lake,
and | intend to run over and see
some of the boys as soon as posi-
BILE if we are not sent out to soon.

Red Cross Membership Drive Big Success

II is indeed a great pleasure to
publish the long string of names
below, all of whom are Red Cross
members secured in the Xmas
drive. There are in all 95 new
members which is remarkable
showing for the town Of Circle.
1t shows its citizens are not of the
"tight-waded" class, but wish to do
all they can towards relieving the
sufferings and hardships of our
own boys who are giving their-all
in order that Kaiserism may be
crushed from the face of the earth.
According to latest reports the
Xmas drive for 100000 new
Red Cross members has been Sc
cured, in fact the final count will
reveal about 13 to 100000 new
members in the United States.

Why Walk On A Little
Fellow?

Your article from Indianapolis on
bread Monday evening shows very
clearly that the man who wrote is is
either very poor at figuring or very
unjust to the retailer. He blames the
retailer for selling the one pound loaf
OF bread for more than eight cents. and
the wrapped loaf for more than eight
and one-haIf cents. He freely allows
the baker a profit of one cent a Loaf
and pays him one-half cent a loaf
to wrap it. Now remember that the
baker delivers US the bread in large
quantities and under the new ruling
takes back no stale. Why not let the
retailer have : half cent a loaf If he
wraps the bread? He doesn't get his
paper and string for nothing.
Further the bakers are charging Us
eleven cents for a pound and a half loaf
OF bread either wrapped or unwrapped.
why? If one pound of bread costs the
retailer Z cents ~ pounds II should
cost not to exceed 10c because the la
Dor cost on the large loaf is practically
the same as on the small.
DO not misconstrue the meaning OF
The Lake County times. [volume] (Hammond, Ind.) 1906-1933, 1917-12-26
Mr.. Lee Calls Them
Obstructionists

Chicago. Dec. gath. 1917.
Editor. THE TIMES:
In Fridays issue OF YOU paper the
statement is made: Neither city ap-
parently had any confidence in the abil-
ity and sincerity Of N1r. Lee as the Chi
cazo representative" Other disparag-
ing remark are published relating to
the sanitary district campaign four
years ago.
For the reason that the importance
Of the proposition far overshadows the
Importance of my reputation. / am will
ing to trespass to any considerable ex-
tent on your indulgence at this time
In fact after devoting the greater part
Of my engeries for over ffeen years
to get Northern Indiana to stop dump
Ling her sewage into our common water
supply. I would be willing 10 be made
the goat" to bring about this primary
/ and most necessary safeguard Of health
and lie.
Ny repo.t was printed n your paper
and in pamphlet form after having been
approved by the chief engineer AMI
other Authorities OF the Chicago dis
trict. It is a matter az record and ]
stand on it.
Conditions may have changed since
then. But my method OF sewage dis
possl is better than dumping it into the
lake.
The committee Of mayors OF your
four cities met. the Chicago sanitary
rustees and verified my Representations
and so stated over their signatures
However. Il is unnecessary to continue
on this phase. Any excuse will do. Il
your tardy patriots viii only organize
the district and stop poluting Lake
Michigan. which we have spent score.
of millions 20 purify.
And they will find that all the pre-.
lliminary work has been completed and
is now ready for action Last year OF
my own time 7 spent several weeks cir
cuiating a petition for another s%anitar,
| district election. acting as c~onsultin.
engineer for h Lake County Trade
! and Labor assembly. This petition va
duly filed, but has never yet been act
ed upon as required by law. If the pol
iticians. who opposed It. have sincere
Iy experienced a change of heart. the,
can get immediate action by taking tn
petition from its pigeon hole at Grown
Point and calling a sanitary distric
election at once.
1t viii not be the first time that Oh
structionists. to save their face, hay.
abused he father of a necessary projec
as an excuse for performing it.
