WHAT MAKES THE

piece that Puzzles Spectators
Folder Gives Answer.

What makes the hands go7 is a
question that puzzles persons who stop
to examine new clock which has just
been hung in the north window of the
Peoples National bank. The clock
consists of large transparent glass
dial, the hour and minute hands, a small
compass being attached to the minute
hand. There are no works so far as
anyone can determine, and nothing APP
parently to make the hands go, yet
they go and keep correct time.
The answer to the question as to
what makes the hands 60 is contained
in folders which are being handed to
customers at the bank. Read the fol-
lowing explanation as copied from the
folder and possibly You will know all
about it:

A WORD FOR MR.. STARK.
Experience is Not Only Qualification
for Legislative Services.

for Legislative Services.
Editor of Reformer:
Will you kindly permit me to say a
word through the columns of your
paper to the people Of Windham
county.
Certain candidates are Boosting about
their legislative experience and taking
pains to point out the fact that Merrill
Stark, candidate for senator, has not
had legislative experience. We all know
that men are often put into Office just
because they are good fellows and
have lots of friends, regardless of their
ability as law makers. Speaking of
ability, let's look at the greatest heroes
of the World war. Most of them were
green recruits right off the farm. There
was Sergeant York, one of the great
est heroes of the war, just a modest
country lad from the mountains of Ten
nessee, yet he distinguished himself
more than any regular army man, who
had spent half of his life in the SER
vice, it has been proven time and time
again, you can't tell how far a frog
can jump by his looks.
Now those of us who know Mr..
Stark believe him just as efficient, just
as capable and just as deservant of the
office of senator as any of the other
candidates.
May / ask you what greater or more
honorable service can a man give, than
his service to our country? Stark
served this nation while his opponents
have served the county.
Yours for fair play,
A. J. HOOKER.
