The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1918-10-19

Inspite of the ups and downs of
boy-life, the weeks had slipped by
silent, vacant sort of way for
hose three home folks after the
father had gone, and in the strange
unrealness of their daily life they
had not felt how alone they were,
until one day a little incident &C.
cured which had rather important
effects on the Gray home circle
And so it was that Jimmie G.. wrote
the following letter to his "Sr.
Pardner."

Dear Dad:

1t is sEmM kid etaoishrdlu
1t sure is a good thing that I'm
lere to take care of mother and
Jean because dad, I'll bet they'd
have bin about scared to pieces to-
night if it hadn't bin for me. Well,
I was a little scared, too, but it
came out all right
You see, we had been over to
Harlow's, and Mrs. Harlow kept
telling about all the BURGERS and
desprit men there are, and about
that night when she saw man
looking in her window. And then
she said just last week when some
of her friends went home from be-
ing over to the neighbors they
found that all their linnen and sill
yer and most everything was gone;
and that if her husband was away
she'd want somebody bigger than
Tommy to take care of her So
finally l just said, Come on moth
er, let's go home. I'm getting
sleepy and SO is Jean" And dad,
believe mother was glad | said it.
But anyhow, when we were going
home we saw the house was all
dark, and you know dad, we always
leave the liberty lamp burning no
matter what Jean wanted to go
back, but mother said you would
be ashamed to have any towards in
your family, SO she opened the door
md we went in. The light at the
loor wouldn't work, SO when l was
going on over to the table to try
turning on the light there, STUN
bled over something, and dad, it
was a big open satchel.
Mother asked me what was the
matter, but l just said, "Oh moth
ing" And then | tried the lights
in the dining room and they
wouldn't work either
| said | knew where the flash
light was, out there in the kitchen
closet by the cellar way, where you
had it ready when you wanted to
look at the water gauge in the fur
mace, you know dad, but | couldn't
find it anywhere, and while | was
hunting we heard somebody COM
ing down the attic steps, and shut
the attic door.
/ went back to mother and Jean
pretty fast and we thought we bet
ter so over to get Mr.. Harlow, but
when we were going back to the
door, we saw somebody coming
down stairs with fash light and
then Jean stumbled over the satch-
ell, SO he said, stop, hands up
We were there by the doorway
into the den, and I felt mother
reaching her hand around to try to
turn on the switch in there, but her
ring struck something and that
made little clicking sound, and
the man on the stairs was about
down SO he heard it too and said,
Hands up there, or I'll shoot"
And then he did shoot.
Honestly, dad, couldn't think of
anything, but mother just said, rs
there something you want?" as
common as if she always talked to
burglars. And then the man
turned the squirt light on us real
full, and said, why for goodness
sake, Helen, is that your"
And dad, guess who it was. Un-
Gle bud.
He had come In to surprise us,
and we were over to Harlow's you
know, so he had tried to put on the
electrick tcaster, but he got it on
wrong so that made the fuzes blow
out, and he was up in the attic
with the flash light trying to find
the fuse box. And when we came
in so quiet he thought we were bur

help the BOYS OVER THERE.
The Ladies first attempt at help

Farmers Club last Thursday evening.
A light lunch was served at Is cents

We're $500.
The meeting in the Red Cross
kooms last Saturday afternoon was
very interesting one. The local
branch was fortunate in having as
its visitors Mrs. r. T. Barber, and
Mrs. Z. ID. itittenhouse OF Wahpe-
ton. During the afternoon Mrs.
Barber gave very good talk on the
work of the Red Cross in the vari-
Gus branches and explained a good
many at the difficulties which arise
III the various local branches. She
also gave us good conception of
the amount OF money it takes to
keep just our local chapter supplied
with materials and how important
it was for each branch to do it's
snare III securing financial aid.
Many helpful suggestion along this
line were given, and it is hoped that
the local branch can profit by same.
we are counting great deal OH the
success OF the auction next Monday
and it is hoped all will be there to
cooperate with each and everyone
for the success OF same. Miss Alma
Tweto presented the plans of the

committees OF ladies were appoint
ed to take charge OF same. The din

sen have learned to make the new

with her the directi ,ns for still an
other one. so let's all learn it while
the learning is good.
Tuesday afternoon several of the
ladies met in the Red Cross Rooms
and packed together the many good
and wholesome articles of clothing
which everyone donated last Satur-
day for the Belgian Relief.
Among the private donations of

CIVIC CLUB NOTES

Cleaning up? Surely. AS the
committee strolled through the diff
ferent streets, incidentally looking
around it saw evidences OF this
everywhere. 1t was in the air.
THOSE who hadn't already begun
were thinking about it SO seriously
that before the official notice of
Clean UP" comes out there will be
very few who have not already done
so.
1t is the wish of every Club in
the state to maintain Public Rest
Room IN their city. This is not so
easily accomplished. A suitable To-
cation on ground floor with heat
and light is hard to obtain without
a great expense, hence the problem
is not easy to solve.
The Great Northern Depot. els one
OF the beauty spots. and the commit
tee appreciating this fact. called on
Mr.. Harris and asked him if it
could be used for Rest Room. We
were received with the greatest
courtesy and consideration and our
request was granted, and it is with
pleasure that We announce to the
public that this beautiful building is
at its disposal This splendid priyi.
lege must not be abused, not mis-.
used and We trust no restrictions
will be necessary. Use the same there
consideration there as YOU would in
your own home.
On special occasions. women of
the Club Will be in charge and
everything possible will be done for
the comfort of visitors and strang-
ers in our city.
we wish to express our heartiest
appreciation and thanks to Mr.. Har-
ris for his generous favor.
we also called on Mr.. Osen ask
ing for prices of various flowers and
vegetable plants. We quote the fol-
lowing and others may be obtained
on application. Large quantities
for schools. clubs. etc. can he
bought at reduced prices. Gerani-
ums from 10 to 25 cents each. AS
ter plants Is to 25 cents per dozen.
Snapdragons Is to 20 cents per dog

lola bulbs 80 cents per dozen To-
matoes % to 40 cents per dozen.

The Wahpeton Floral Co. is right
with Us when it comes to beautify-
ing the city and helping win the
war by planting garden.
May We not see window box on
every home this summer? And
what could be more attractive than
bed of blossoms on every corner
lot in the city? Make these beds on
the triangle of the boulevard. and
they will be "a joy throughout the
season.
We noticed too that the Boy
Scouts bird-houses had been placed
in the trees to welcome the song

crumbs for them too. and they will
sing more merrily than ever,

II. L. Kramer, the man who origin
Ated Cascarets, has discovered a sure,
safe, Qulck-acting relief for bad stom-
achs. He named 1t EATONIC for your
stomach's sake.
You can eat anything you like now
and digest 1t in comfort, for stomach
ease is positively assured If you eat
an EATONIC tablet regularly after
each meal.
EATONIC acts directly with the
food the moment 1t enters the stom-
ach. 1t Immediately checks any ten
dency toward too much acid and en-
ables the food to pass from the stom-
ach into the bowel in sweetened con-
dition, and thus prevents the forma-

set digestion and cause bloated, dull,
