PICKING UP ADS.

This newspaper does not object to
newspapers in neighboring counties
making the local rounds with The
Partisan and picking up from it's de-
veoped business and written ads, and
beyond this we really have no ''kick"
coming, but the advertisers tell us
they are tired of having "the life dew
lied out of them," locally. This does
not refer to any full-page sale ad,
but to tire repair stores, hardware
selling, paint men, battery stations,
automobile agencies, and some ad-
vertisers who use with us seven col
umn widths instead of the old coun-
try-style six.

WAGE RAISE FOR
RAILROAD CLERKS

A raise in wages for railway clerks
amounting to about 81 per day, may
be granted in the very near future,
according to reports received here
coming from what is considered good
authority. The executive committee
of the Brotherhood of Railway Clerks
has been in conference with the wage
committee of the federal railroad ad-
ministration for some time and it is
understood that an increase of IL IL
cents per hour on the basis of AZ
hour week, with overtime for Sunday
work, has virtually been agreed to.
The conference was expected to be
concluded Tuesday or Wednesday.
The increase must be approved by
the director-general of railroads be-
fore it can become effective, but the
recommendation of the wage board
virtually assures its adoption, it is
said If the raise is granted it may
require several months to work out
the new schedules bur the increase is
expected to be retroactive to the date
of the agreement.
A fiat increase of $25 month was
granted the railway clerks on Sept.
/, but the clerks contend that at "a
bout the same time other depart
ments received increases amounting
to from $40 to $50 per month.

GoID FEVER.

shere seems to have been an un-
gcessary alarm in the town over the
Uphold scare. Wild rumors have
been afoat as to the various causes,
show only how little some few persons
know concerning even such a muchly
knw concerning even such muchly
written of disease as typhoid.
The analysis of the city water
shows a complete absence of one,
weeny, teeny, typhoid monster. 1t
is utterly absurd to further such an
idea as that "the tearing down of an
old building has set loose all these
typhoid bugs" as several persons have
| done.
Anyhow, every person who is sick
in Paris for the past week is "said"
to have typhoid fever and many (who
should have done so before in accord
with any medical mans Instruction.
have made one grand rush for the
typhoid toxin, not that it is not the
thing to do, because we re-iterate
that it is-the county health officer
in submitting his quarterly report to
he county court advised it when there
was only single case of fever in
the town, and we in an editorial sew
eral weeks ago advised it along with
other precautions because of the con
tinued dampness and heavy rains of
spring. Yet the sudden drive for the
"shos" makes us think that there is
much sheep in us after all.
The doctors and the health officers
are doing everything within their
power to prevent a typhoid epidemic
or any other epidemic here this sum-
mer, but they can't do it all and ev-
eryone should take what personal
precaution he can.
There has been one theory advan-
ced that people are somewhat inclin-
ed to credit and that is bathing in the
Lake. It is a great pity that this
city is not provided with adequate
swimming facilities. However, few,
if any, of those who are said to have
the fever have been in the Lake, and
any number who have been in it have
no typhoid symptoms.

Some Say
Advertising Did 1t

There is measure of truth to that. But
the ;,dvertising was not of the usual type.
The Essex received the kind of advertising
that is always effective. No product has been
advertised as it has been that has not become
a favorite.
It's advertising has been the voluntary
praise of tens of thousands who recognize
Essex qualities.
Just as it has never been necessary to
stimulate want for an automobile because
its utility is recognized by everyone so it has
not been necessary to more than call atten-
ton to the Essex.

PLAN NOW FOR A
FALL. GARDEN.

The local supply of garden truck
this spring has been far below the
local demand. One grocer declares
that when his customers call of a
morning that is is embarrassing to
continually report no supply of fresh
vegetables. Several of the local mer-
chants are ordering what vegetables
they can procure from out-of town.
The hotels have been unable to OBJ
tain the needed amount of fresh veg
etables. 1t is remarkable how
much canned goods is being marketed
and eaten at this season when the
vegetable season is at it's height.
Now there are noticeably many va
cant lots and weed over-run spaces
around this town and it is up to some
hody to get busy along this line. The
Hun at our doors today is an indi-
vidual of keen wolfish propensities,
by the cognomen of H. c. L. and it
will take an organized and concen-
trated attack to successfully combat
the situation and at the same time
to retain our usual commercial and
economic prosperity. Your grocery
bill today is probably two times what
it was five years ago, and so is the
drug bill and dry goods bill, ETC., and
the question is, are we locally going
to do anything about it? You may
have had any quantity of fresh veg
etables this season and you can read
lily see how they have "helped out. T"
But has your neighbor had any, or
have you had any to sell?
This is good truck market, but
apparently the farmers prefer to
spend time and land space on corn,
wheat, tobacco, ETC., probably consid-
ering them more lucrative than truck
yet there is not enough truck raised
here to supply even the local de-
mand.

cord acclaim, "Eat Vegetables de-

they can be so easily and cheaply
raised here at home. It merely in

Factory production is now steadily in

Buyers must have some patience. They must
not expect to get an Essex off the floor when

are not usually so easily obtained.
All dealers are forced to enter orders and
make delivery in rotation. The man who
buys today will get his Essex sooner than he,
who delays.

DRINK 'ECURES"
FEELING DRY"
WAVE IN WEST

! CHICAGO, May 3.-Plans are be-
! ing made by owners of more than
200 drink cure establishments to dis
continue business with the coming of
national prohibition, according to Of
ficials of institutions here A few of
the places may continue indefinitely
as drug cure sanitariums, but large
majority is expected to close within
a year.
James E. Bruce, an official of a
drink cure corporation that adver-
tises it has cured more than 10000
victims of alcohol, said the prohibit
ton wave had for some time caused
decreased business.
I'VE figure there will be no need
for our institutions after the coun-
try goes dry" he said. However, we
exepct business to increase for few
months Fight after prohibition be-
comes effective. But after that it will
rapidly decrease.
"A few years ago we had sixty
branches in operation throughout the
| country. Today we have 26. Drug cas-
es constitute about 25 per cent. of our
| business, the number being about
the same as before the Harrison act
went into effect five years ago. But
we do not think it would pay to
continue treating drug cases alone.
Adoption of bone dry prohibition
by a number of the states has de-
creased business in many sections.
Business also fell off during the war.
but last fall it picked up again at
about the time of the influenza ep-
idemic and has been fairly good ever
SINCE"
An official of one of the Oldest
chains of drink cures in the country
expressed the view their institutions
would remain open for at least a year
after the coming of national prohi-
bition. He admitted that beyond that
the future was uncertain. Two years
ago this concern operated fifty
branches. Today the number has been
reduced to fewer than twenty. He
said few of the branches might be
| continued permanently for drug users
who, since the passing of the Har-
rison anti-narcotic law, "are confined
largely to the wealthy ,lass and resi-
dents of the underworld"

Servant Problem
Worries Nation

WASHINGTON, May 3.-To avert
the strange new peril which, the war
being over, has arisen to endanger
the homes of the United States and
Great Britain. American housewives
are working out plan along the
lines of a movement already under
way in England to solve the servant
problem.
In London the answer is the Le-
gionary. In this country, according
to the United States Department Of
Labor, it is 1.-The Industrialization of
Domestic Service"
What is really needed and desper-
ately needed, is a cokk in every home
ana cooks who helped to save their
country as war workers in munition
plants, factories, shops, or offices at
wages even in the kitchen.
before the war or since to many a
college professor, are showing dis
turning reluctance to return to the
pre-war status.
Whether the COO ~ question was
mistress or maid n the Cay3 before
Ghe var, the result is tie same. In
METER capac'tS is she in any con-
siderable number {, II & any cooking
now.
Many a woman who formerly did
her own work. has discovered in her
self during the last year and half
an earning capacity sufficient to en-
able her to pay the wages of cook
if she could find one, and leave her
dress allowance in addition. Cooks
and housemaids, having escaped from
the home, refuse to return to it on the
old terms.
Money, in the case of domestic SER
wants, appears to be no object in Il
country at least, for cooks, if they
will consent to cook, can earn war
wages even in the gitchen.
The highest paid cook so far report
ed to the United States employment
service is In Port Huron, Mich, where
she is receiving $1O5 per month. An
other in Kankakee, ILL.,, is getting $25
a week. Chicago pays from $40 to
SIS per week on an average to its
cooks.
In spite of this and of the fact that
women are more in demand as do
nestle servants than in any other
field of human activity, reports from
all over the country to the employ
ment service agree that women are
reverting to houseworh only when
driven to it by sheer necessity, and
then on the plain understanding that
they remain only until they can get
something else to do.
