Two Aeroea Remembered.

Jasper county, Indiana, waS names in honor of Sergeant Jasper of the Revolutionary army because of his spe- cial patriotism and bravery. He was sergeant in . South Carolina regiment And in the attack on Fort Moultrte, early in the war, the flagstaff was shot on and the flag fell to the bottom of the ditch outside of the works. Jump Ing from one of the embrasures, Jasper mounted the colors, tied them tc staff and held them in position under hot fire until another flagstaff was brought. For this a commission was offered him but he declined 1t through ilistrust of his qualifications. On an- other occasion he and another sergeant named Newton attacked a British guard of ten men and released some prisoners the guard were conveying to Savannah. A township in Jasper coun- ty as named Newton in honor of Jas per's companion on this occasion. A county in Georgia and a central square In Savannah help to perpetuate Jas per's name. He was killed at Savannah neaY the close of the war.
 Motor Car j3enned.
 A motor car is really self-runn;ne and rather realistic moving picture machine. The difference IS that req; hills are better than play ones, bu: one has much the same panoramic, sort of pleasure except that, instead of sitting In row of ten cent seats with a great mass of people in the jerky and the clickety dark, one sits securely and privately in ones own moving picture machine and does ev- erything ones self. One steers the mountains past one, steers the rivers and hills with lever and turns the scenery on and on.

Carlisle's attempt TO intimidate re
tail milk dealers who are willing to
sell at less than 3 cents a quart, the
price fixed last week by the milk
men in conference with the food ad-
ministrator. is therefore entirely
without any foundation of authority
in law or in the regulations provided
by the state officer.
Threatens n Fine.
The intimidation was attempted
Monday when Carlisle issued a So
called warning" which was pub
lished in another South Bend paper
in which he threatened to fine any
milk dealer who should be found
guilty" of selling below the price
of Is cents a quart. Both consumers
and dealers were urged by Carlisle
in this warning to report the name
Of any dealer selling be.ow Is cents
a quart and the food administrator
declared that the guilty dealers
would be assessed a fine equal TO the
difference in their price and the 13
cent price for each quart sold at the
lower price, the money TO be given
to the patriotic and civic relief
fund.-"
This warning was issued,
the administrator pointed out,
because reports had come TO
him that some dealers had sold sey-
eral hundred dollars worth of tickets
at the old price of II cents a quart
and had represented that this price
would prevail after the Is cent price
was supposed 10 go into effect.
Apprehension UnfOunded.
IL was generally felt that the food
administrator had attempted an act
which was beyond his authority but
inasmuch as the food administration
is an emergency institution and its
purposes intended to be purely pa
triotic. this warning" Of Carlisle's
caused no little apprehension among
dealers who found themselves able
TO sell their milk at less than 13
cents and still make a fair profit.
This apprehension is now dispell-
ed and no dealer need fear that the
food administrator has power 10
fine or assess any other kind of
punishment against the dealer for
selling at less than Is cents.
At a fair price fixing" meeting at
the Cham ber of Commerce last week
Carlisle attempted 10 get J. ". Wit
