arranging his business and personal
affairs in preparation for the call that
he knew was coming. He visited his
office Friday for the first time since he
became i'll in Cincinnati some weeks

he faces. Just before departing he
said that the seeds OF his teachings
would be sown throughout The world
despite his Imprisonment and that
his doctrines would live forever. The
uppermost thought in his mind was
the welfare OF his wife. whom he
clssped in last embrace as the con-
ductor called "all aboard" Mrs. Dsbs
will remain IN Terre Hsute with her
mother.

Sleeplessness.
Sleep is natural state Of rest, with
more or less complete unconscious

The amount Of sleep necessary varies
with the individual. The young and
old require more sleep than persons Of
middle age. Twelve to fourteen hours
OF sleep for growing child should be
the rule. The average individual should
get from seven to nine hours Of sleep
out OF every twenty-four hours.
Sleep is absolutely necessary for the
proper recuperation Of the body waste

Some persons spend eight to ten

THINK

A college professor once wrote On
the blackboard in the lecture room
these words: Think. think, think
think not as the teacher thinks. but
think" The. power of thought is one
of the evidences that man was Great
ed in the image of God and for COM
panionship with God. Thinking u.s.
ually results in some form of action
and certainly the act is conditioned
by the thought. How the writer OF
Psalms 1859 thought and acted will
be considered at the Sunday evening
service. 8 o'clock, at the Evangelical
church.
The subject at the II a. m. service
will be of interest to everyone who
desires to do Gods will.
hearty welcome awaits you both

His Business Ability
dr- Rilev ia a contractor.

Mr.. Riley is a contractor.
He is a carpenter contractor and
mechanic.
Ordway is building school facilities
costing almost hundred thousand
dollars.
Mr.. and Mrs. School District Tax
payer, don't you think 1t would be
well to have a man of his ability on
the school board at this time when
so much money is being spent?
If you had big farm to manage
would you put a laundryman on the
job? No 1t would be farmer.
If you had big store to run would
you want a farmer? No you would
want an experienced merchant.
Alright Ordway is spending a
vast sum of money for school build
ings. Why not secure the services
of a man who knows what building
material is and who knows how to
handle plans and specifications.
With SO much money being spent
would it not be good idea to have
a man familiar with building and
building material. and with architects
plans and specifications to superin-
tendend the work for the benefit of
the taxpayers.
Then why not elect Mr.. Riley to
the school board and have Just such
a man-and without cost to the dis
trict, at that.
Riley is fitted for the position. He
is a perfect gentleman and a man In
all his dealings. He stands out
for the good in a community. and
works for all that is good and for the
best interests of all, old and young.
Riley is qualified in every way for
the place.
