RAIN DELAYED WORK
ON BRUNSWICK ROAD

The rain of Tuesday and Wednes-
day this week, while badly needed in
the country to replenish the depleted
water supply. prevented the COM
pletion of the Wooster pike into
Brunswick. The laying Of asphalt
would have been completed by Sat-
urday night of this week had the
weather remained dry and the road
Immediately opened as far as the
center. ~
However, the work will be finished
early next week and autoists will be
able to drive over the new road, turn
ing east at the park. The road into
Cleveland over this route will leave
but about two and one-half miles of
dirt road.
Work on the strip north of Bruns-
wick will be started as soon as the
south part in finished, altho the
county engineer states that it will
probably not be completed until next
year. 1t is pointed out that by lay
ing the two courses of stone and al
lowing traffic to pass over it this
winter all weak places will show up,
so that when the asphalt is laid next
spring it will have tendency to
stand up better under hard usage.

AN OPENING GUN?

Political writers are inclined to regard the forthcom-
ing battle four constitutional amendments submitted to
the Ohio voters this fall the opening in general
campaign of the vets to come back 1t is suggested that
the of the four proposals to be placed the
November ballot will be the signal for nationwide
saught upon prohibition involving campaigns in the ma
ona conventions of both big parties and demand that
congress repeal the federal dry amendment The four pro-
posas presented to the voters substance follows
l. Proposed state constitutional amendment to repeal
statewide prohibition amendment reestabish the license
system and license laws and define intoxicating liquor
containing more than 2A per cent alcohol.
e. Proposed state constitutional amendment to exempt
2A per cent liquor from the intoxicating liquor class
g. Approval rejection of the action of the legisa-
ture in ratfying the national prohibition amendment.
L. Approval or rejection of the code passed by the
legislature for the enforcement Of the statewide proh
bition law
These proposals practically the entire range of
the national and local prohibition questions now at ISSUE
1t apparent that their ratification by the voters by
decisive majority would involve complete reversal Of the
trend of the past two years That both the vets and drs
will put forth every Of energy into the fight
these may be taken for granted 1t is probable
that this state will witness during the next few weeks the
bterest and hardest fought battle the liquor question
that it has ever known.

Commissioners at their meeting on
Monday of this week agreed to haul
cinders for the village to improve the
roadway from the end of the pave

the corporation line, thence west to

1t is proposed to use this road as a

Why Do French Women
Always Look Young?

In France mothers and daughters
look like sisters. How are the women
there able to retain their youthful
looks until long past middle age? Is 1t
because they are much given to the use
Of mercOlied wax? This wax possesses
4 remarkable absorbent property which
quickly removes the fine particles of
CuttCIe which are constantly dying and
which are the immediate cause of an
old-loolling complexion Thus the live
Tier. healthier. younger skin beneath is
given chance to breathe and to shoW
itself. Try this treatment yourself.
Most likely It will not require two
wcoks to make your complexion as
clear. soft and beautiful as a youn z

usually does the work. The wax Is
