TO ORGANIZE CREDIT
ASSOCIATION HERE
MERCHANTS UNITED
AS TO NECESSITY;
Advertising Club Discusses Plans for
Next Bargain Day, to Obviste
Objectionable Features of theFirst
One.

Members of the Medina Advertis-
ing club met on Thursday night of
last week to talk over their first ex-
perience with their new bargain day"
innovation; to compare notes as to
relative individual successes, and to
discuss plans for enlarging the scope.
or for effecting changes in the conduct
of future club activities.
More than rs per cent of the club
membership was present at the meet
ing, and all expressed satisfaction with
the outcome of the first bargain day,
and enthusiastic to make the affair
permanent institution here.
To obviate future criticism as to the
hour that bargain day sales shall be-
gin, and it's attendant annoying fea-
lures, it was decided that sales shall
begin upon the opening of the stores
in the morning but that each merchant
will be provided with sufficient stock
to accommodate all buyers through
out the day, and that limit shall be
placed upon the amount any one pa
tron may purchase. By this ar
rangement accommodations will be
made for such persons whose business
affairs are so regulated that they must
buy very early in the day or not at
all
Perhaps the most important matter
taken up at the meeting was that of
the organization of credit association
in Medina. Merchants have felt the
necessity of such an organization for
long time, and movement was
started few years ago by the former
Board of Trade to- form one. For
some reason or other the plan fell
through. Now, however, it has been
decided to form such a body, and a
committee consisting of D. r. Pelton,
chairman, N. O. Fuller and S. H.
Brainard was appointed to submit de-
tailed plans at meeting to be called
soon for that purpose.

to proceed with the repair Of the road

at the court house, and while there
were not many applicants, and only
three admitted to citizenship, con-
siderable time was consumed in dis
posing Of the work, and there was the
usual fiavoring Of pleasantries in
some of the answers given by the ap-
plicants.
The three men admitted to citizen
ship were: .,s.
Sam Buemi, an Italian of Wads-
worth.
Bangheli Mustucu, Macedonian

torious military record inc the late
war, from which he was honorably
discharged, Mustucu was admitted to
citizenship without the formality of
an examination, by Judge Mcclure.
Joseph F. Skafac, a Croatian Of
Medina, gave satisfactory answers to
the questions put to him and was ac-
cordingly declared citizen of the
United States.
Gustav Carlson, Swede of Wads-
worth, having claimed exemption
from military service, and for other
reasons, constrained the court to take
his case under advisement.

tion of the applicants for citizenship.

. AT MONTHLY MEETING
Dads to Have Dandy Place to

The village council had very little
business to transact at its regular
monthly meeting Tuesday night.

was protest filed by certain resi-
dents Of Smith road against the levy
ing by council OF assessments on their
property for street improvements. The
signers to the protest were Helen, l.
Aylard, Ella B. Strong and R. w.
Strong. They are owners of real
estate abutting on Smith road on the
north and South Broadway on the
south. They assert that as their
$houses face on Smith road and have
already been assessed for improve
ments on that thououghfare, they
cannot now legally befurther assess
ed for contemplated Improvement on
South Broadway. The protest was
ordered filed with the village clerk.
H. c. Bradway submitted plot Of
an allotment of real estate in the
north part Of the village running from
North Court street to Huntington
street, formally requesting that the
village accept of the plans and auth
orize the engineer to establish the
necessary grades The matter was
referred to the street committee,v
is to report at special meeting to
be called in about two weeks.
Mr.. Bradway, who is secretary Of
the County Board Of Elections, also
asked that a committee Of council be
appointed to meet with the Election
Board at its next meeting to arrange
for the erection of two additional
election booths in time for use atthe
next election. One Of these is de-
sired for the division Of precinct "A,
and the other for the division Of pre-
cinct D, in the village Mayor Hart
zog appointed Councilman Fem, Ed
wards and Hyde,as the committee.
Councilman Boyden introduced a
motion that the, council chamber be
repapered, repainted, the floor cover
ed with new linoleun, the roof repair
ed, and the whole place lin fact, be
made presentable, and "safe for DEM
ocracy.r The motion was promptly
seconded and carried, and details left

PREMIUM LISTS FOR
FAIR INCREASED.
THOSE ON CATTLE
LARGEST in STATE
Medina Board Also Decides to Erect
i New Education Hall at Estimated
Y Cost Of $1,000 Other Changes
Were Suggested.

The Fair Board met in the Farm
Bureau office, Saturday, May Z.
The new Education hall which Ihas
been discussed became an actuality
when the Board voted to put up a
building similar to the one at the
Wooster Fair grounds. The building
will be Of the Ballon type frame. Dis
play booths will be located along both
sides and thru the center Of the build
ing. It is the intention of the COM
mittee to make. the building high
enough that a second tier of booths
can Be placed above in case it is need
ed. The building will be l20 feet by
SO feet and its estimated cost will be
around $4,000. \.
The committee in charge Of plans
are c. b. Ulery, P. G. Bigelow and
DR.. w. F. Wise.
The heads OF the various depart
ments recommended such changes in
the premium list as they saw fit. In
the cattle department the entrees were
divided into two classes. The Hol-
stein, Jerseys, and Guernseys in the
first class, and the short horn, Angus.
Red Polls, Ayershire and Brown
Swiss in the second class. N
The first class to receive addition
al premium for entrees made from
this county, which would make the
premium So, 81 and S. for first, sec
ond and third prizes, while the prizes
Of the second class VIII be $6, M and
s.. In the minds of the Board this
would give an extra inducement to
show,
This change in premium list gives
Medina the distinction of, awarding
\ the largest amount of premium In her
cattle department Of any fair outside
the State Fair.
The tuberculin requirement is some
what modified. Those showing who

STATE TO NOTIFY OF
ROAD CONDITION
WIDE PUBLICITY AS
TO DETOURS, ETC.
County Surveyors Held Responsible
for Neglect in Giving Detour

dition of detour roads, and adoption
hy the highway department of a de-
finite rule that mudholes and other
faults that in the past have made de-
tours ban to the traveller must first
be corrected before the detour road
fis assigned.
With this as the basis, the highway
department will begin soon to issue
detour bulletins twice month, which
will be furnished to the press and all
automobile clubs in the state. 4
The bulletins, which, if conditions

Information concering roads.
In this way the information will be

An improved method of marking
detours also is to be adopted. A

Red-BIooded Men and Women
h Get Things Done. Rich Blood
~ Means Vitality. =

Men and women who are on the
road to big success are not tagging
on the way. They are bright and
cheerful because their systems are fed
with rich, red blood.
Weak blood, thin and sluggish, will
never get you anywhere. You would
be surprised how many people are
just drifting along half alive. They
never want to do anything-never
get anywherc-all because their
blood is in bad condition.
The sensible thing to do is to keep
the blood pure and full of red corr
puscles. Pepto-M angan Will do that
for you the way it has for millions
CT men and women in the past thirty
years Notice the difference after
