Jack Dempsey knocked out Old
Woman Willard in one round the

passed over to a man. There was
no doubt that the nigger, Johnson

man Fitzsimons handed it to
young Jeffries, who made such a
woeful appearance against the mig

The free text book law that
went into effect July 1st in this
state under which all books will
be furnished free of charge to
school children, that is, they will
be loaned to them may be alright,
but the provision which makes

loss of books which may be de-
Quoted from her salary by the
school board of her district, is a
snag and will surely lead to many
troubles. Of course, where the
school board will use a little Judge

ed, but certain it is that many
boards will demand payment Of
the teacher for books lost and
chances are that many a teacher

collie ge entomologists recommend
the following to rid the house Of
ants: Dissolve 8 grams Of sodium
arsenite in a lite water and add
it to a sweetened sirup of 2
pounds of sugar dissolved in 81
of a pint of water. The solution
snould be placed about in small
dishes, or a sponge saturated with
it should be placed in jars provid-
ed with perforated covers. This
is slow action poison which ena-
bles the ants to carry it away to
their nest. The poison is then
fed to the young ants and queen
and thus the whole colony is des-
troyed. If sodium arsenite can
not be obtained, use white arsenic
instead. Smaller quantities
should be made in the proportion
given above.

with the great throng of people
who seemed to have met with one
purpose only il. view. that OF rid
ing our county of the greatest
evil known to us.
But since that meeting I have
thought a great deal on the SUD.

get the co operation of one class
of professional men that is neces-
sary to get in order to make
this fight 'howiing success, and
it is that of the attorneys. Ii
realize that in personal way
they are with US heart and soul
for personally know every one
of them and know them to be
good christian gentlemen; but it
is ,heir'profession, and their duty
too. TO assist those who employ
them in cases of this character as
we'll as other violations of law.
What we. should do is to get
these attorneys to agree to assist
in the prosecution of every case
of illegal selling of intoxicating
liquors, not only get them to agree
to assist, but we should employ
them to aid the Commonwealth
in prosecuting every case that
comes before our Courts for the
next two Years, yes pay them and
pay them well for their efforts.
Just think of it, when case
comes before any Court of our
county and a half dozen or more
of tt e best legal talent in the state
files into the court room and puts
forth their best efforts to convict,
use the same precaution in the

Is this worth trying? 1 be-
lieve that every lawyer in your

FORD'S GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

Week of January goth the musical
comedy success of an entire Metropolitan
season Conan and Harris present the
sensational Aviation play
GOING UP
original New York production.
"Going Up" the Aviation musical
comedy which delighted all New York
whole season, when presented at the
Liberty Theatre, is announced week of
January Goth at Ford's with the original
company and production.
This captivating success is founded on
a farce comedy entitled, THE Aviator"
by James Montgomery.
The play is one of fascinating appeal,
as regards its tuneful melody, its con-
tinuous comedy. sensational episodes,
beautiful girls and wonderfully entertain
ing company of singing comedians includ-
ing in it's leading opponents, the popular
New York comedian, and author Frank
Craven, Edith Day and Marion Sunshine
are delightfully."- entertaining.
The splendid cast is enhanced by a
chorus of seventy-ive stunning girls who
both sing and dance exquisitely and wear
series of lovely up to date gowns.
Never was more fun or excitement
packed into dramatic climax, than is
to be found in the scene attending the
hero lucky flight against the Frenchmen.
But this screaming fun provided by
Otto Harbach's book is matched so far
as popularity goes by the charming songs
set to music by Louis A. Hirsch and by
the exhiliating dances sprinkled through
the three acts.
The production here will have every
advantage marking its extended Metro
politan engagement.

the war period dress uniforms were
