As soon as the resolution was read
delegates sprang from their seats
shouting for recognition and demand
ing that the police officials immedl-
ately be through out.
Col. Jones pounded his gavel and
cried for order. but 60 no avail.
Finally one man gained the floor by
virtue of strong voice. and wildly
shouted his opinion of the police
methods.
Another cited the case OF a man
who had just been released after
having been jailed for six months,
without a charge having been en-
tered against him.

Undertakes.

New York,-N1iss Anna M. Haley,
who died at 81 ROseville avenue, New
ark, wrote her own obituary four years
ago and left it in care of a firm Of
undertakers.
She asked that it be used just as
she wrote it, with the date of her
death filled in. Here is part of her
obituary:
Miss Haley has been a great suf-
ferer from spinal trouble for many
years, and with her brother travelled
extensively for health. In the year
1879-1880 they travelled around the
world via California, visiting the Sand
witch islands, Australia, southern In
dia, Egypt and Europe.
Miss Haley was born in the city of
New York, as were her ancestors for
many generations. She was educated
in Miss Haines' school, Gramercy
Park"

cheering system for their consequent

its unique engineering value, it opens
up vista of vast commercial and po-

MATCHES FOR THE YANKS
Knights of Columbus Keep the Boys
Over There Supplied.

It's one thing to supply the dough-
boys with free smokes, but quite an
other for the boys to light them COM
fortably now that they are in Ger
many, where matches are not as plen-
tiful as they used to be before the war.
There are the "urait-a-minute" and
''die-hard' matches, so named by the
British Tommies because, unless a fell
low wants to be gassed by the raw
sulphur of the tips, he has to wait I'M
til the sulphur is expended and the
wood of the match begins burning be-
fore he can light his cigarette, cigar
or pipe.
This being the case, the Knights of
Columbus have sent and are sending
regular American book matches to the
boys with the army of occupation. An
order for 100000 books Of matches
was recently placed by the Knights so
that the boys abroad will be able to
get their smokes without risking gas
poisoning by using the European grade
Of lucifers.
Lamb Chews Tobacco.
This lamb had white fleece-once.

SHERIFF SEEKS SPEED:
PURCHASES APPERSON

Out in Tulsa county, Okla, things
break very impromptu when they do
break. The sheriff is not a busy man,
but when he is busy no man could be
buster. When some untamed child of
the prairie let's the daylight into the
cashier of the First National, the sher-
III acts with gertrude and dispatch.
SO he bought an Apperson Eight, for
more gertrude and still more dispatch.
"A big factor in the sheriff's decis-
ion.' said A. T. Lawless, the Apper-
son representative, was the remark
able acceleration and bral1ing power
Of the Apperson," You know the new
Eight makes a gliding leap from
speed of one mile to 40 miles an hour
In high In 20 seconds. And the brake
curbs the speed from 40 miles an hour
to a dead stop In four seconds-40
yards This extreme flexibility makes
It the car for the snappy work the
sheriff has to do.
OF course, in addition to these quail
ties, the car had to be a whizz on the
road and absolutely reliable. Lawbreak-
ers use modern methods-and modern
speed cars in Oklahoma as well as In
New York But the sheriffs of Tulsa

EXTRAVAGANZA IS FOE
OF REAL PRODUCTION

The factors and processes OF the in
dustrial world of America are closely
interdependent Everything that Is
bought has Its bearing on the employ
mont OF long line Of workers going
back TO the ultimate source OF the raw
material from which the article is made
At the far end of that line stands the
man or woman who obtains the raw
material from the earth--for the earth
or products Of the earth is the source
OF practically all raw materials,
Next stand the workers who advance
the raw material through the various
processes of development and manufac-
ture, Then the men and women who
transport the article and distribute 1t
and finally those who sell 1t to the uti-
mate consumer,
When you buy foolishly, unneeessar-
ily or eNtravagantly you disrupt that
long line Qf workers upon whom the
community and the nation depends for
its necessary supplies by just so much
YOU injurc Yourself and every other
consumer, which means every citizen of

you need, YOU do your share 10
