DoLava| Cream Seperators

Why is it that the De Laval Sep
arator Co., the BIGGEST makers of
Cream Separators in the world, is
oday unable to keep up with the
demand for Separators? The answer
lies in the fact that the De Laval
Co. puts nothing into machine that
is not right, and when one farmer
ges a De Laval you can DEPEND
on it that the next separator his
neighbor gets will be De Laval. 1t
does not take the neighbOr long to
realize hat the farmer with the De
Laval is getting more cream, better
service, longer wear and better value
than he is getting and once he rea-
Lies his mistake the up-to-date farm
er is not long in changing his meth
DDS and getting rid of cream ROB-
Der and buying a money-maker in

Of those customers that have been
expecting us out every day

with US, as the DE Laval Co. wired

JUDGE LARRY CONCURS
IN SUFFRAGE CASE
News-Times specinl serxice :

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 3.-MOses
3. Larry, an associate justice OF the
Indiana supreme court, handed
down Thursday a concurring Opin-
ion in the woman part suffrage
case recently decided against wOm-
an suffrage in Indiana by the court.
When the deciding opinion was
handed down, Justice Larry was
mentioned as having cOncurred in
the conclusion reached. His Opin-
ion Thursday differs from that of
chief Justice John w. spencer. who
wrote the ruling opinion, in that
he holds the constitution is a re-
straint of power granted TO the leg
islature.
Chief Justice Spencer rather too
the view that the constitution was
a grant of power 10 the legislature.
Both agree, however, that Art. 2,
Sec. ? of the constitution means
that only male citizens may vote at
any election. In effect Justice
Larry holds that the legislature is
as much a voice of the SOY ereign
people as would be a constitutional
conV entiOn.

AN IMPERATIVE DAY

June 9TH has been fixed by the
President for the registration in their
respective precincts, by the persons
to be authorized to conduct the regis
tration, "all male persons who have
attained their twenty-frst birthday
and who shall not have attained their
thirty-first birthday" on that date, by
authority of the selective army draft
law, passed by Congress on the 18th
inst. and signed by the President on
the 18th.
1t is an important, even an imper-
ative day, for every male person be-
tween the ages named. AS to ones
eligibility or ability for military SER
vice, that will be decided by examina-
ton at the time of registration, but
all must register. A penalty attach
es and Imprisonment faces every one
who may be convicted of wilfully
failing or refusing to present him
self for registration.
In his proclamation the President
charges that chose who through
sickness shall be unable to present
themselves for registration, must ap-
ply on or before the day of registra-
ton to the County Clerk of the coun-
ty where they may be for instructions
as to how they may be registered by
agent. Those who expect to be alb
sent on the day named from the coun-
ties in which they have their perma-
nent homes may register by mail, but
their mailed registration cards must
reach the places in which they have
their permanent homes by the day
named, June 18th. They should apply
as soon as practicable to the County
Clerk of the county where they may
be for instructions as to how they may
accomplish their registration by mail, :"
or "to the City Clerk of the city where
in they may be sojourning in cities of
over 100000"
The registration officers are ex-
pected to act without pay, and the
Governors of the States through d.
rection of the President will arrange
with the County Clerks and Sheriffs
to have registrars qualified and pres
ent in each precinct at a designated
place that will be named, notice of
which will be given. 1t behooves ev-
cry man of registration age to watch
for these notices and inform them
selves, to save trouble and possible
conviction and Imprisonment for fail
ure to register. For the benefit and
information of our readers we will
publish the name of the place of each
precinct of this county as soon as we
secure information thereof.
