BUYIT NOW AND WHAT IT MEANS.

America is suffering from its at
tempt at a return to normal bus
mess conditions Some OF its mark
cts are over-crowded with commodi-
ties and many Of It's industries have
been forced TO close down due to a
falling Off OF their orders.
To remedy this condition merchants
and business men are pocketing a
loss, selling their goods at reduced
prices and urging the public to buy
its necessities in order that he or

tinue.
Buy Il now Is the slogan and for
the good OF all concerned II may well
be needed.
High prSces caused the consumer
to refuse to purchase all goods but
those which absolute necessity de-
manded Such a determination by
the public resulted in an oversupply
of these goods which ii did not pur-
chase. An oyersupply Of those goods

ART AND THE COLOR LINE.

the sensation caused last week by the alleged protests Of
members and directors of the Drama League of New York
against the invitation of Charles Gpn Negro star to its enter

that aost absolutely true that the color line protrudes it
self into every field of American endevor is no less true that
the final outcome of E affair gives the conclusion
that better judgment and fairness also act to control preuda
tendencies
Charles Gpn star of the latest stage has, by his
genius and ability gained recognition seldom attained by any
artist He has contributed to art and his contribution should be
judged for its worth without consideration Of the color of its

INSURANCE NECESSARY.

Recent jury verdicts in the local courts for heavy damages against automobile owners residing in this city emphasize the necessity Of in- surance. Only a few days ago, a jury in this city awarded damages of S5,00O against a citizen who thought he had a clear defense. Such in stances are not uncommon. Repair bills on automobiles are invariably high. and the owner who does not protect himself by insurance is taking grave chances The writing of auto mobile insurance that will properly protect an owner, while allowing all
 the discounts to which he may be properly entitled has become a spe- cialty in the insurance business Anyone can deliver a neatly executed policy, but tho owner owes it to him. self and his own pocketbook to in- sure with company or companies that do not seek technicalities or some legal subterfuge to avoid set 1 ting claims promptly and without publicity or litigation.

Doing your daily work with weak eyes is like eating with poor teeth-difhcult
 if not actually painful. But the one whose eyes ache, or water, or cause headaches, is not so unfortunate as the one who has weak eyes and does not know it-and there are millions of them
 Weak eyes can be made to do their work in every case. You can quickly test your eyes in the following ways: If the printed page blurs: if reading s;1.d 70, or headaches. if your eyes water or look read and inriamed they need attentlon.

 It is believed that thousands who wear glasses can discard them in a reasona- ble time and multitudes can so strengthen their eyes to be spared the trouble and expense of getting glasses. Eye troubles of many descriptions may be wonderfully benefited and eyes strength ened in many instances in the following simple way-Go to any drug store and get a bottle of Bon-Opto tablets Dis solve one Bon-Opto tablet in a fourth of a glass of water. With this liquid bathe the eyes as directed You should note your eyes clear up perceptibly from the very start and inflammation quickly disappears. When your eyes bother you even a little bit take steps to strengthen and preserve them without delay DO not neglect them. Many now beyond hope-some actually blind-might have been saved if they had cared for their eyes in time.

An active campaign against the Smith-Towner bill for centralization of control of all schools at Washing ton was opened here last night by Miss Victoria Larmour, graduate of Smith college. A meeting of Mac Swiney Council, A. A. R. I. R., at 1s9 State street.
 ''If you want an example of how the Smith-Towner bill will york; said Miss Larmour, watch what has happened to ex-service men under the Federal Board for Vocational Edu- cation, read the American Legion publications and learn of the fright full delays and lack of consideration towards ex-service men. That will show you how education under the control of a centralized bureau will act. And the task of caring for the eX-service men is comparatively simple one compared with the gigan- tic task that would be imposed on the Department of Education at Wash ington under the Smih-Towner bill.'
