NICHOLSON OPPOSES
CENTRALIZED BOARD

Timothy Nicholson, who has OPP
posed the creation of central board
of control to manage the 10 benevolent
and correctional institutions of Indi-
ana ever since the movement was first
launched, expressed his disapproval
today of an effort to resurrect the
plan.
When Governor Ralston was in
duced to espouse the theory of a cen
tralized board of control a number of
years ago, Mr.. Nicholson was one of
the staunchest opponents of the meas
ure. In a statement given to the
ress Tuesday, Mr.. Nicholson says:
Permit me to call attention to an
editorial in yesterdays Indianapolis
News upon Our State Institutions"
Evidently an effort is being made
to get Gov McCray to recommend q
central board of control to manage the
10 benevolent and correctional institu-
lions, as was advocated five years ago
by Gov Ralston, when felt it my duty
to prepare a pamphlet. chiefly COM
pilation from the utterances and writ
ings of the most distinguished experts
upon the management of state institu-
tons, to defeat Gov. Ralston's efforts.
The editorial reference is in opposi-
ton to such board OF control.
Very respectfully,
TIMOTHY NICHOLSON"

by the influence Of Calcium in the
blood. 1t is a refining influence. Cal
cium is the principal agency of Stuart's
Calcium Waters and exerts a peculiar
stimulus to skin repair. Pimples, black
heads and other such evidence of To-
Called skin sluggishness are replaced
with new material and soon the skin
renews itself with firmer, healthier,
tissue. This makes the beautiful COM
pleXion so much admired. No use to
hide pimples with cold cream and To-
tons. They come from within and
keep coming until such an influence as
calcium is employed.
Let nature paint your face through
the influence of Stuart's Calcium Wa
fers which you can obtain in any drug
store at so cents box.

Who should go into the theater first,
the boy or girl?

1t would be all right to go to a

The girl should be allowed to go
first as the usher finds the seats.
The girl gets into the street car first,
and the boy gets out first in order to
assist the girl to alight.
Dear Mrs. Thompson: l have a
friend whom l think lot Of. He
seems to like ME and wants me to
marry him. The only objection l can
find is he has had growth removed

a cancer. What would you advise me
to do? A FRIEND.
To marry a man who has cancer of

County Is
Improving Roads

ROME, Ga, Sept. 17.-With fully
500 men and many teams now en-
ployed on road work in Floyd county,
and a payroll of in excess Of $500
a day, the task of building and I'M
proving roads in the county has be-
gun in earnest and the funds OBJ
tanned from the recent road bonds
issue are being dispensed, almost ex-
clusively, in the county to citizens of
the county. Thirty-eight foremen
are experimenting the work, under
the capable direction of County En-
gineer Keiffer Lindsey, and the
work is being done effectively.
At present practically all of it is
being done on the second-class and
third-class roads, and this policy is
to be continued as long as the
weather permits, the intention of
the county roads and revenue board
being to expend two-thirds of the
amount appropriated to each of the
roads before winter sets in and the
work is necessarily stopped for a
time.
The tractors recently purchased are
being used on the Dalton @road and
the Bluff road, reshaping the former
and changing and building the latter
