COOKING. ON THE MOTOR BOAT

Motor boating about our seacoasts
shared for some years during the
war the same blight which attacked
the sea shore resorts. Many motor
boats were bought by the govern

used in the government service and
the few remaining owners were
afraid to take theirs out. This year

Memories Of Old Days
In This Paper Ten Years
Ago Today

Walter T. Carpenter, the oldest edu-
Gator in Indiana, and a patriarch OF
the Friends church of America, was
nearing death, having been in an un-
conscious state for 60 hours. He was
80 years old, and Friends were pray
ing that he might live until his Tooth
birthday, on next New Years Day.
Fire of unknown origin totally de-
stroyed the Mustine saw mill at Foote
and Center streets, Cambridge City.
The loss was estimated to amount to
ove- $4,000, without any insurance.
Many employees were thrown out of
work in that town as result of the
mills destruction.
The heaviest fine ever assessed in
police court by Mayor Zimmerman,
and the heaviest for the city Of Rich
mond for 10 years, was that of 500
and costs and one year in county Jail,
given an employe of the American
Seeding Machine company, for petit
| larceny.

The First Registration Day

The first registration of Indiana voters will
take place in few days. Wayne county electors
cannot complain that their attention has not
been called to this fact repeatedly and with en-
phasis. It behooves them to enroll their names.
Paramount to all partisan considerations is
the indisputable fact that registration is an alb
solute prerequisite to voting in November. I'm
less your name is on the registration list, you
cannot exercise the right of franchise at the
polls.
Both political parties are in accord on the
question of heavy registration of voters. Both
are urging members of their party not to over
look the Importance of this STEP
Previous registration is of no avail. You
must register before you can vote at the forth
coming election.
It may not be amiss to remember that if you
register at the first session, you will have dis
charged the duty and need not worry about the
date of the second registration period

One Lesson of the Polish Victory

Military observers, who have commented on
the precipitous retreat Of the Poles and their
sudden reversal, attribute the former to the
presence of unframed troops at strategic points
and the latter to the massing of veterans for the
counter-blow.
They say that the raw Polish units broke
before the first vigorous assaults Of the Rus
slams. They lacked training. Their officers
were inexperienced and unable to direct their
men efficiently. The result was retreat that
almost became catastrophe.
In the meantime the Polish high command
was massing veteran fighters for the last stand
before Warsaw. French strategists of the high
est experience directed the new movement,
which resulted in crushing defeat for the Rus
slams.
Entire credit for the sudden transformation
of the Polish military situation is given to the
trained troops and to the experienced officers
that were employed.
Pacifists of our own country, who believe a
