 At the meeting held on Tuesday evening the Milford Medical society received the announcement of gift by Charles Beardsley and his son of four acres of land to furnish a site and grounds for a hospital. This bit of characteristic generosity and public spirit amounts- in money value to something like $15,000. The deed will be passed immediately. It is the purpose of the society to adapt the house which is included in the gift, temporarily for hospital purposes, re- moving it later, when sufficient funds have been obtained to make the erec- tion of a permanent building will be known as the "Beardsley Memorial ."

In order to avail himself of this oppor- tunity for keeping in touch with the air game, the reserve officer must ob- tain an identification book from the Director of Air Service, Washington, D. c. Whether or not advantage is taken of this offer is entirely volun- tary with the aviators. It is intended that from time to time the army will arrange for flying competitions which reserve aviatorS may enter if they so desire, and thus have an oppor- tunity to demonstrate in perform ance tests their air pr oficiency.

Stockholm, June 25-The. Swedish government has asked Parliament for 25,0o0,O00 krone credit to enable substantial support to be given to the destitute populations of Central Europe and the Baltic states.
 If granted it will be used as a guarantee. for payment of goods sold to Letland, Poland, Czecho- -Slovakia, Austria and Hungary, for which these countries cannot at present pay. . In these days of extravaganza, the figures of speech are more popular than the figures of arithmetic.

Gentlemen:
Did you ever try to visualize the amount of roofing
you purchased from during 1919?
You have handled eighteen car loads of NEPONSET
Roofing which amounts to 936 900 square feet enough
to cover building almost quarter of a mile long by
787 feet wide.
If the amount of NEPONSET Roofing you have
purchased from us in the past year laid in strip
three feet wide it would make walk from Pensacola
to Mobile.
We congratulate you upon your success, and be-
cause we know YOUR ability in advertising and selling
your goods we believe the year 1920 will bring you
greater success.
Very truly yours

to be about as guilty as the men who
fired the shots that killed four ex-ser-
vice boys during the Armistice Day
celebration at Centralia last year, has
drawn off the Farmer-Labor ticket as
candidate for attorney general. This
withdrawal is not on account of any
change of heart on the part of the
hackers of the Farmer-Labor ticket.
Smith name was placed on the ticket
originally by men who had full knowl-
edge of Smiths activities and partici-
patton in the Centralia murders, and
that Smith was selected as a candidate

that the radical element, and all those

vote to Fleming, the democratic candi-

who voted for Cookery will vote for
the democratic candidate for congress

admiring his courage in standing for
his convictions, will feel that they did

Straw votes are not determining
factor in the choice of candidates eth
er at conventions or elections, al
though they may show to considerable
extent the drift of public opinion. Pri-
or to the national conventions the Lit
erary Digest conducted the most stu
pendous straw vote ever attempted in
this country as to the peoples choice
for president on both the republican
and democratic tickets, and the lead
ers in both party votes signally failed
of nomination. At the present time
numerous straw votes are being taken
as to the public choice for president.
In the east a moving picture corpora
ton is polling straw vote on presi-
Dental candidates, and according to
the figures given out in New York
paper received at this office, Harding
is running far ahead in New York City.
The Rexall drug stores numbering
some 5000 are taking far more COM
prehensive and nationwide vote and
already upwards of 100000 votes have
been registered through this large
chain of stores. That vote shows Hard
ing to be far in the lead in all the
states north of the Mason and Dixon
line, and strange to say, Harding is
showing remarkable strength in some
of the southern states. OF course all
the votes that may be cast in the Rex
all ballot will be only small portion
of the millions of votes that will be
cast at the general election in Novem-
Der, but the result of that poll will
give some idea of the drift of public
opinion, although it by no means
elects a candidate.
