WARREN COMPANY AND COUNTY PLAN GREAT
 IMPROVEMENTS SOON

By an agreement made this week be- tween the Warren Company and the county officials, it was decided to ap- preciably improve the street system at Warren. Especial attention will be pal dto drainage. and all bad streets will be made quite passable. Work on this will start shortly after De- cember 1.
 Much Work Contemplated.
 All indications at the present time are that improvements as Warren will total considerably over s600.000 in val ue for the year of 1917. This figure is exclusive of the cost of all real estate, and does not include any street work.
 So fast has property been moving at Warren that the Warren Co., is now perfecting de:ails for opening up fur ther portion of the townsite-that across the Douglas road from the new district of Warren. This statement was made yesterday by Jesse Yoakum.
 Up to November 1st S275,00O had been spent in the building of residenc- es. In addition to this, there are at present under construction. 34 houses, with specifications calling for total of over S100.00O. It might be mention ed that two fo these houses will cost S1l. .OOO apiece. G. H. Dowell will also build in Warren in the near future. his house to be directly west of the Wal to- n~,,rIo-
 Public Improvements.
 Municipal. public and company inn plovements amount to a further $175,- 000 Of this. the new C. & A.

The new junior high school at Warren cost s25. 900 and S27, ,O00 and $15,00O has been spent on sewerage and street work respectively. Park improvements have been made to the extent of 5000.
 In regard to work between now and the first of the year. apart from that already mentioned in the way of home building. it is to be presumed that the Warren Company will carry ou. it's us- ual play of yearly addition to the parks.

How bravely. buoyantly. man bears his galling load of woes and cares. We see him toiling in the mart with fearless eyes and dauntless heart. Dispatches bring him tidings dire; his buildings are destroyed by fire: his vessel, filled with navy beans. was sunk by German submarines: the bank in which he had his wad is closed the cashiers skipped abroad. Perhaps he's pale around the gills confronting unexampled ills; perhaps he sheds a pint or two of sweat as cold as morn ing dew; but he's the modern fighting gent. and so he raises no lament. With stoic calm. with Spartan front. he buckles to his daily stunt. Then he goes home to have doze; silly fly with tickling toes is climbing OCT his drowsy brow-oh. watch the Spar tan hero nowi Oh. see the dauntless stoic rise. and cave around and cuss the flies. He knocks the pictures from the wall. anr roasts his loved folks. one and all. and says it is beastly shame that one who's weary. sore and lame. can't harvest some refresh ing sleep; and if his wife was worth her keep. she'd see that every dog gone fly should curl its little limbs and die.
