Today's Talk
CARE!
BY George Matthew Adams

SAnE!
The office boy who wants some day
to be president Of the concern he
works for, must begin by caring-car-
ing whether or not he does every little
thing in the best way of which he is
capable.
The artist must care If he wants to
become CREATOR art is something
more than the mere mixing of pig
ments. 1t is the application of ones
soul in feeling to the running combina-
tons Of color that make up the final
masterpiece.
You have to care, If you want to go
ahead. You have to care, as you
climb, II you expect to reach the top.
You have to care. as you dig and sweat
and lame your back and blister your
hands and feet.
Then, in your achievement, you will
learn that it paid to go thru these
things People will gather around you
and praise you and send you bouquets
and nominate you for offices and wish
you we'll in everything.
But nobody outside yourself will
know what it all cost. And that very
cost will mean more to you, in inside
appreciation, than all the plaudits of
the world could ever mean.
Care!
Big people always care. Edison,
working far into the night, night after
night. piling up hundreds of expert
ments, with his storage battery, that
were ADMINISTRATION had to care, be-
cause he knew that there was an end
TO the road he was travelling, and that
at the end of that road he would find
his goal. Which he did.
Those who undertake tasks which
look far beyond their abilities, have to
care.
If you want to be more useful, If
you want people to recognize all the
ability you have, if you want to be
further along tomorrow than you are
today-you will have to care about
everything that you do.

National Road Repairs

The Chester pike and the Liberty pike, main
arteries of travel north and south, are consid-
cred to be in good condition for the application
of top surface, which the highway commission
has ordered to be applied
The National road, east and west, hardest
travelled of all highways in Wayne county, di-
rect interstate and transcontinental route,
should be resurfaced instead Of patched, as the
commission plans to do, road experts say
The work, which the commission has ordered
done on the four main entrances into Richmond,
will cost about $4,000. The money spent for
the improvement of the Chester and Liberty
pixies will bring results and that applied to the
improvement of the National road, east and
west will be wasted in the estimation of high
way men.
They say the surface of the National road
has been worn badly in the last three years,
during which it received no maintenance, that

New Plan Is Suggested
For Oxford Water Supply;
Nav Dam Four Mile Creek

OXFORD, O., July 29.-EngineerS
have suggested a new scheme in the
matter of the shortage of water in this
village. It is now believed that by
building dam across Four Mile creek
north of town, a alteration reservoir
will be kept full all the time, and that
sufficient water will remain to fur
nish electric power for the pumps.
Daily reckonings of the water supply
are being taken for ninety days to
ascertain what volume of water the
stream will afford.
The estimated cost of changing the
present system is $4,000, and engi-
neers say that the new scheme will
pay for itself in ten years.
Look For Wife-Beater.
The village police are looking for
Arthur Suel, young colored man
Yesterday Suel is alleged to have
beaten his wife and child until their
conditions are serious. When Mayor
Hughes received word that Suel was
supposed to be beating his family,
Marshal Sheard could not be located.
SO the mayor deputized a by-stander
and hurried to the scene. Suel es-
capped.
Completes Accounting.
After working three weeks on the
village accounts covering the last
three years, J. NJ. Howell, state in
spector Of municipal accounts, finished
his work Wednesday. He compliment
ed Clerk Beaton and Treasurer Smith
on their books. The only fault he had
to find was in certain legal advertis-
ing of last year. Several ADVERTISE
ments, he said, had been published
more times than was necessary, or
than the law allowed. He will call
upon the village solicitor and the
newspapers for an explanation, and
some money may have to be refunded.
Inspector Howell also said he doubted
whether the village had the right to
furnish light and water to persons liv-
ing outside the town limits.

COMMENCEMENT.

Commencement, as the word
signifies, is the beginning, not the
end as people sometimes think. 1t
is the beginning of ones life.
When the time comes to part from
the old school we are apt to be-
come sad and 10th to leave the
scenes of our playtime. But they
cannot last always. We have had
our day in the pleasant school
room and we must move on to
make room for others to take our
places there. f-.-.
''Out of School Life into Life's
School," and so each year a group
of scholars go forth from their
Alma Mater with sad hearts, but
time will take away the sting and
leave only a pleasant memory.
School days are never forgotten.
When we leave we look back upon
the school life as the most pleas
amt episode of all. We criticize
our teachers and play pranks on
them, but did they not do the
same thing to their teachers? We
love every teacher that we have
ever had and to them we turn our
hearts, overf1owing with gratitude

To ride in wagons packed with

So bring wrap (for it might

Immediately after supper the
eager crowd was called together
and were loaded in wagons filled
with straw ready for the ride out

Purify and Tone Up Your Blood
With That Famous Tonic,

Do you seem unable to do any
work, to concentrate, to take any
interest in things, during the won-
derful Spring days? Do you feel
just useless and "no account?"
Nothing is really the matter,
except that as happens every
Spring, your blood is clogged-it
is sluggish with poisons from its
long Winter fight. sl
In time, your blood will proba-
bly, adjust itself. But meanwhile
you fret and worry, feel unhappy
and accomplish nothing. Why
do it, when it is easy to clear up
your blood by taking Pepto-Man-
gan for a while? For thirty
years, doctors have been recon-
mending this effective and agree
able tonic to purify and build up
the blood of rundown, listIess
people. y
Feel your best. Have fine coll
or, and spring in your step. Be
vigorous, happy, red-blooded. Get
u bottle Of Pepto-Manyan today.
The nearest druggist has it, and
in either liquid or tablet form,
just as you prefer. There's no
difference in medicinal value.
But be sure you get the genuine
Guides Pepto- -Mangan. Ask for it
by that name-"Gude's Pepto-
Mangan," and be sure the full
name is on the package.-Adver-

den this year. Growing your own
food is one sure way of cutting
the cost Of living.
Good seeds are essential for
good garden growth. vt
Ehing out a5l leftover seeds
and those saved from the previous
years garden, spread them on a
table nd examine closely to see
hcw many of them are worth
planting in the garden this year.
A study of a seed catalogue will
serve to refresh the memory and
call attention to the special
things being offered.
Don't order more seed than are
necessary, but be sure that those
purchased are the best that the
market affords. Soil and seeds
ere the firsJ essentials to a garden.
Have them both right before you
begin planting.
The cost of home gardening is
only little bit higher now than
it was before prices of food
reached it's present price. At any
rate, the cost cf gardening has
not risen IN the same ratio as the
cost of food. The planting of a
home garden will increase the to-
tai food supply Of the country.
Right then and there the home
gardeners solve the high cost Of
living problem. But how can the
man who never gardened learn
how to garden? One good way is
to write to the United States De-
partment of Agriculture for a bull
letin that describes every step in
home gardening.
Few tools are needed for home
food garden.
Some gardeners have the idea
that they must have large as
sortment of tools and special e.
quipment to- begin with. But the
tools actually required in the cul-
tivation of a garden are few and
simple. A spade or spading hook,
a steel rake and hoe, together
with piece of string and two
small stakes, are the chief essen
tials. There are, of course, num-
ber of other tools that may be
used to advantage, but are not
absolutely necessary. 1t is, how
ever, important that the few es-
sential tools be properly cared for
and used frequently.
What to Plant in your Garden.
What crops to plant in your gar
den will depend upon the size of
the garden, the size Of the family,
and the size OF the family's appe-
tite. AS rule, home gardeners,
especially the beginners, devote
too much time and space to let
tuce and radishes and too little
to beets, carrots, beans, onions
and tomatoes. Where the family
is small it is easy to overplant
most Of the garden crops. The
surplus of most vegetables. can be
saved by canning and drying, 9TH
