WABASH MUTUAL TELEPHONE
COMPANY mo.

A summary of report of the Audit
ing Committee-Wm. Wiley, o. s.
Ashcraft and Geo. L. Schroyer-that
recently audited books and accounts
of the company covering period OF
past 5 years show that records of
funds cared for by Secretary and
Treasurer were well kept and all ac-
counted for and balance of $359.91
appears to the credit of the company
to date of January 4, 1917.
The interests of the company have
been looked after and wisely handled
as the records Of meetings Of its
board of trustees show. In said per
iod of FIVE years Incorporation was
effected, buying of poles and material
enough to repole the entire system
with cedar poles, and purchase of a
at Wabash and equipped as
a telephone exchange.
With a surplus of 1875 poles on
hand to their credit besides the nice
balance afore mentioned.
These things have been accom-
plished by the small assessment of
$3.50 per annum. 240 patrons are
now served by its lines.
Much credit is due the men that
have directed the affairs of the COM
Dany with such marked success.

THIS
Is CandIemaS, Better known
As Ground Hog Day
That He Seen His Shadow This
Morning, II He Strutted Forth,
Is FOregOne Conclusion.

This is an old saying that at Can
dlemas day a farmer ought to have
left half the corn and half the hay"
The hay and grain test is not quite
accurate, except for stock feeding.
Grass fingers in the fields until late
in November, many years in this eli
mate, and it does not get much Of a
start until considerable time after the
sun is high and warm and much re-
viving of life is apparent In fields and
woods
Winter is much more than half
gone by the test of daylight. 1t Is
better than half over in respec to
cold, If you forget this morning,
January is three days longer than
February and as a rule its tempera-
ture is a trihe lower. March is not
quite so cold as December, in the
shade and decidedly warmer in the
sun. The first day of April is warm
er than the last third of November.
Seasons differ, Of course, and this
winter may depart widely from the
general rule, but II II runs true to
form, as the race track phrase goes,
the larger part Of that winter is in
the past; but this Is wher the ground
hog comes in. The margin is very
slight, as yet, but 1t is on the right
side.
According to time-honored custom
If the grounding,
when he emerges as is said to be his
annual custom on the second day of
February, see his shadow eh will
return to his bed and pre-
pare for six more weeks of winter. |
II, on the other hand, the day is |
dark and overcast and not sufficient |
sunshine is at hand to cast a shadow |
ne goes right ahead prepring for an
early grubbing of spring roots and |
herbs. In other words failure to see
lis shadow forecasts the end of winter |
md an early, very early spring.
Four degrees below zero this morn
ng won't keep him in his hole or the
Jun from taking peep over the land
cape Then look at the fiendish grin
II the coal dealers.

Chance for Passage.

Columbus, o., Feb by a vote
of ~ to so the lower house Of the
Ohio General Assembly today passed
the Reynolds bill to extnd the right

hissed the first speaker against the
bill, Representative Max Friedman, of
Cincinnati, Speaker Hopple threaten
ed to clear the galleries and order
prevailed during tn remainder Of the

cheers and applause.

REAL ADVERTISING SERVICE
OFFERED

The Democrat has just completed
arrangements with the Bonnet Brown
Company Of Chicago for an advertls-
ing service that will be Of special in
terest TO Democrat advertisers. The
Democrat has long felt the need OF a
good cut service that would enable
our advertisers to present their ad-
vertising in a more attractive man
ner and at the same time add mater
tally to its pulling power.
The Bonnet Brown Company has
long held an enviable position among
the larger advertising firms OF the
country through its expert work in
metropolitan dailies and magazines.
Better facilities in the way of Illus
trations has long been given the city
advertiser. The result has been that
the city has pulled trade from the
country. The Bonnet
Brown Company have now extended
their service to newspapers in the
towns.
The publisher of a country paper
must give his readers and advertisers
service. Our duty to an advertiser
is not to throw some type together to
fill space, with his name attached and
at the end of the month go round
and take his money. Our work is to
make whatever space he uses in the
Democrat productive to him and not |
Just an expense. People must read |
The ad II advertising is to pay the ad-
The ad must be attractive
II it is to be read by readers of the
paper, The picture is the universal
language and can be read by every
me. We are making 1t possible for
,ur advertisers to properly illustrate
heir advertising.
The Democrat has this service ex-
lusively in its field. The addition of
his service is another step in the di-
ection Of the goal for which We are
triyng-leadership in the local field.
We will be pleased to show the SER
ice to all who are interested.

EXCITEMENT
Has Ft. Recovery People in Its Grasp
Since Oil Men Are Acting
MysteriOusly

[Ft. Recovery Tribune-Journall
It's taking lot of territory to make
the statement, bu he F. Recovery oil
field is a present the hardest fought
field in the United States. Some
thing is going to hapen soon. Either
the bubble is going to burst or the
field will be opened and worked to
death.
With the price of crude oil ap-
preaching the $3.50 mark, the pot has
begun to boil furiously. The rivalry
of dozen or more companies to Sc
cure leases is almost bitter. Then,
too, there are the spectators or wild
caters to reckon with. Men who
cannot tell an oil lease from a mar
riage license are leasing every avail
able potato ptch. So far but two
wells have been put down and these
by the Three Counties Co., Of Port
land They are located in what is
generally considered the choice terri
tory which extends from Wendelin
south, almost to the Darke county
line.
Fort Recovery is evidently looked
upon as an Eldorado by oil men Of
Gibson and Recovery twnships seem
to be their firm belief. Many Of
them prefer leases elsewhere.
Several months ago the Three
Counties Co. prepared to open the
eld and drilled two wells south Of
town. One was a dry hole and the
other a gasser. In the meantime A.
]. Bauer had given the field the once
over and was starting to lease. A
gumshoe representative of another
company was at Bauer's heels, then
the spectators and the rush was on.
There is an oil pool in this neigh
borhood as has been proven by the
results of the operations of the Three
Counties Co., but the question is
What is the extent" The field at
Wendelin was at one time the best in
the state. For many years 1t has not
been actively operated, and after ly-
ing dormant for so long a time water
and other forces may have caused a
quantity Of the crude product to ac
cumulate. There are other places
where the field has been tested It has
been said several years ago but its
discovery was kept secret for future
use. One driller states that he was
putting down a gas well several years
ago and struck oil. The well would
have been good producer but he was
instructed to cease drilling and plug
the well Immediately. 1t is safe TO
say that watchful eye has been kept
on the lease since that time.

MANY CHANGES
OF Business Nature Will Follow In
Wake of Removal of Post Office
To West Market Street

Postoffice Inspector Horpf, of Har-
risburg, Pa, here on an inspection
tour last week, approved the site of
the newly proposed Post Office in the
room recently vacated by the Ayers
tobacco store, in odd Fellows Tenn
pie, West Market street, and the Of
flee will be moved from its present
location about March 1.
MicKinan Bros, who are conduct
ing the cigar store and billiard room
in the Schantz building, have leased
the Riley & Bryson building, where
the post office is now located, and
will occupy it upon the removal of
Uncle Sam. Fred Schlenker may
probably secure the Schantz building
and open up an up-to-date confection-
cry store.

TRAGIC
Death Of Geo. Taylor, Seized
by HemOrrhage
And Vain EndeRvOr 20 Phone for
Aid-Aged Mothers Heroic At
tempt 60 Render Service.

A CHASTITY find was made by DR.. D.
H. Miller and Night Policeman Heis-
tan about midnight Wednesday night
when both were gwen hurried calls to
the Taylor fiat, West Fayette street.
At the end OF the hall leading
through the second floor, they found
George A. Bailey" Taylor. lifeless in
a pool Of blood. He had been seized
with a hemorrhage Of the stomach
and bleed to death before assistance
arrived.
Bailey, as he was familiarly known
lived with his aged mother, Mrs.
James Taylor in their fat on the
second floor Of the Taylor building,
above Kindell's Drug store, West
Fayette street
health Wednesday and joked roundly
with DR.. Miller, when the latter call
ed on Mrs. Taylor, who has been Ill
for some months, shortly after sup
per Wednesday evening.
Sometime before midnight he was
undoubtedly suddenly seized. Feel
ing the necessity Of assistance, with
blod flowing from his mouth, he went
to his mothers room to awaken her.
Before she was rightly awake, how
ever. it seems that he probably rea-
lized she, in her feeble condition
would be unable to assist him, he
grouped his way back through the
hall to the telephone. He rang for
central, but undoubtedly fell uncon-
scious before he could ask for aid.
Mrs. nellie Landfair, on night duty at
the exchange, got the ring, and re-
ceiving no answer she became alarm
ed and called Night Policeman Heis-
tan, who hurried to the Taylor home.
In the meantime Mrs. Taylor
awakened discovered the blood on
her bed and receiving no answer to
calls for her son, made her way
downstairs, something she has not
done unassisted for several years and
to the Ashley hotel, where DR.. Miller
was summoned. He thought the call
was to the bedside of the aged moth
er AS he reached the Taylor home,
he met Policeman Heistan, and the
latter accompanied Doc upstairs. The
place was in darkness, but with the
use of fash lights which both car
ried they saw the blood covered floor
and going to the rear Of the hall, near
the telephone, found Mr.. Taylor's
lifeless body. The door frames and
walls were splotched with blood,
where the dying man had braced him
self to keep from falling on his way
to his mothers room and back again
to the telephone.
The awful shock of the sudden
death and the hazardous trip in
search of assistance may prove fatal
to the aged mother, whose health has
been very poor for sometime past.
Deceased was the oldest son Of the
ater DR.. James Taylor, and was
about 81 years of age.
Besides his mother he is survived
