Granjo's coffin:s T swear, dear friend. by your corpse, that I will never again wear my uni form until your murderers are pun ished."
 Another well known naval officer, Commander Prestes Salgueiro, said he did not come there in his uniform on which the cross of war was pinned, because it was stained with blood.
 Other officers who belong to pos litical parties opposed to Granjo and even some who took part in the revo- lution, declared near the tomb of the assassinated premier that they would not wear their uniforms until the guilty were punished and the Portu- guese navy purged of assassins.
 A great number of naval and army officers of high standing have sent in their resignations, but the press is forbidden to refer to this.

Letty," "See My Lawyer" "A Kiss in Time"
 In Exit the vamp," breezy clever and different picture, he has role suited to his striking person ality and playing opposite Miss Clay ton he proves his talents in many powerful scenes.
 Theodore Roberts needs no intro- duction. He Is known as the great est character actor before the camera and many critics leave out the "char- acter," calling him the greatest ac- tor. In Exit the vamp" he4 has. a role which he makes the most of.
 The story deals with the trials of a wife whose husband becomes enam- ored of another woman who delib- erately vamps him. Instead of talk ing the law in her own hands and exaeting vengeance as some women in like circumstances often do, the wife adopts the unusual method of herself vamping her husband with the result that the real vamp is put to rout. The picture is filled with situations that thrill and exert a powerful appeal.

PIONEER OPTOMETRIST
Mrs. c. p. Reynolds Qualified in Prac-
tice of OptOmetry by Years of
Experience. Most Modern

practice Of optometry in this section
is Mrs. c. Reynolds whose optical

c. w. MILLER co.
Beef and Pork Packers, Complete En-
largement to Packing Plant in
West Newark

With the addition of nearly $4,000
square feet of floor space in a new
building, plans for which are now
being drawn, the C. w. Miller & Co.
packers, the outgrowth of one Of the
older business institutions in the city,
will take its place among the larger
industries of the kind n Ohio.
The plant is located in Daniel ave-,
near the Shawnee railroad. A fine
modern plant was constructed on this
site several years ago and the contln-
ued growth Of the company's business
made the new addition necessary,
much sooner than had been expected.
The business was established by the
late c.. w. Miller, father of John and
Harry Miller, present owners of the
company For years the firm has con-
Quoted a retail meat business in
South Second street. From this point
its wholesale business was conducted
until its output demanded larger
quarters.
The plant is located on a fourand-
quarter acre sit in the southwestern
part of the city. The present building
is about $50 by 60 feet in size and is
three stories high, each story being
II feet The new addition will be of
the same height, but about rs by rs
feet. The new structure will be used
to increase the plants cutting, render
ing and storage facilities.
With the completion of the addition
! the plant will have a capacity of 3d.
900 hogs 5000 cattle per year in the
| killing room.
Little effort has been made in the
past to develop the local market,
thouqh statesmen for the firm have
for several years entered the central
Ohio markets in competition with
+ larger firms. It's product therefore
might be better known so miles from
Newark than in the home city. This
will be changed by the new policy OF
looking after the home markets.
The Miller plant now produces prac-
tically everything in the meat line.
Beef and pork and their products are
prepared for the retailer and con-
sumer. Few plants in this part of the
country make any effort to produce
dried beef, yet this already is popu-
lar product of the Miller company.
Miller hams and bacon are now in
great demand among the retailers
handling these items. Experts in
curing meats are in charge of the
ham and bacon department and the
product compares favorably with ma
tionally advertised brands.
The personnel of the Miller Pack
ing company is sufficient to recon-
mend the company's product to the
working classes. The men are promi-
nent among Licking county's most
enterprising citizens and have always
extended a cordial hand Of co-opera-
tion in all movements tended to con-
serve the welfare of the working man
and his family.
