In Memoriam.

In sad and loving memory of Ira
E. Christmas, who departed this life
December 18th, 1920:
All the world seems dark and dreary
Clouds have dinmed the sunshine
glow
Just year since we parted.
Yet it seems so long ago.
One year has passed dear husband
and father since you were called
away;
How we'll do we remember the sat;
and weary day.
Our lives are lonesome, home is sad.
Our hearts are filled with pain.
We fell like those who never will
know a happy day in life again.
Friends may think you are forgot
ten, but the wounds are as fresh
today,
As the day you left US broken heart
ed, one year ago today.
But we know the time is coming,
When the summer winds blow sweet,
We shall find you in the sunset,
Where the gold and crimson meet.
For the valley of death was bright
er,
Than the hill of life he trod;
And the peace that fell upon his
spirit,
Was the calm sweet peace Of God.
Devoted wife and children.
Written by ]. P. Christmas.

NEW YEAR GREETING.

Dear Friends and Patrons
Another year has rolled away anc
we now find ourselves on the thres.
hold of new one with many difficult
financial problems and its worries
facing us. But there is a great con.
ISOLATION in the fact that every cloud
has silver lining, and that the pres
ent conditions will mean much to us
all if we will only take advantage OF
the lessons they are teaching US
Let's live in the hope that when the
cloud passes away, we shall emerge
into a day of sunshine and its attend
ing blessings.
For the past five years we have
been living too fast. We have been
so deeply absorbed in our personal
affairs that we have lost interest in
our fellow man. Destiny has called
halt, and as we enter the door of
the New Year let's stop for
moment and consider. Do we realize
that no man liveth unto himself ?
Have we learned that no man can
achieve anything alone? Do we
know that we are indebted to man.
kind for what we are? If so, then
let us not stick our thumbs into the
arm holes of our vest, as it were, and
shout to the world "See what l am,
or what have done," but with CRATE
full heart and smiling countenanace
let's grasp our fellow citizen by the
hand and make him feel that what
he has contributed to our material
or social welfare is appreciated by US.
This is the spirit in which we come
to- you with our New Year Greeting.
We are thankful to you for the pat
ronage you have given our agency
since its organization, and especially
during the eight years it has been
under the writer's management. 1t
has always been our purpose to give
our patrons the best insurance pos
sible, and to make our business re-
lations mutually pleasant and profit
able. If we have failed in this, we
regret it. It has always been our
policy to represent companies that
make satisfactory adjustments, and
pay losses promptly, therefore we
have in our agency >ome Of the best
companies in America. We have not
tried to build up our business on the
dement's of others, but rather on oul
own merits. If our service has been
satisfactory to you, we ask that you
please continue giving us your pa
tronage. If our connection has moi
been satisfactory please advise in
what respect we have failed, and we
shall. be delighted to profit by your
suggestion.

and future favors, and hoping fol

DRESIDENT HARDING has ordered
all American troops in Germany
returned to the United States by July
1, the beginning of the 1928 fiscal year.
This was the American governments
first answer to the refusal of the allied
PREPARATION commissiol4 to pay its bill
for $241O 100000 for the expense of
United States troops on the Rhine up
to May 1, 1921, out of billion gold
marks recently paid over by Germany.
The allies argue this way: The allies
are not bound by the Berlin treaty,
lust as the United States is not bound
by the Versailles treaty. Americas
claim is based on the Berlin treaty.
Therefore the allies are not bound
to pay the American claim.
Secretary of State Hughes has made
the governments second answer. In
effect he has served notice on the
allies that they cannot dodge pay
ment of the Rhine debt by attempting
to hide behind a technicality which
doesn't exist. Identical communion
lions were placed Wednesday, March
I'll DIV American dIuUdSSduOLS DC1OI 2
the governments of Great Britain,
France, Italy, Japan and Belgium.
Secretary Hughes insists that the
right of the United States to be paid
is not. only clearly equitable but free
from any technical objection. He sets
forth in detail this right, as established
Jointly under the terms of the arn1is-
tice, the treaty Of Versailles and the
treaty Of peace between the United
States and Germany. He says the
United States will welcome any sug-
gestion from the allies for reasonable
| adjustment. And in the meantime will
they please refrain from giving effect
70 any arrangements for the distribu-
ton of German cash payments to the
exclusion Of the claim Of the United
/ States.
Evidently the situation is one which
requires an able secretary of state. 1t
apparently has many complications.
In debate in the senate Senator Lodge
said that our claim had nothing to do
with either treaty, that it was based

The commission form of city gov
eminent varies widely in the different
states. The characteristic feature is
the combining of all legislative and
executive powers in a single body, usu-
ally consisting of from three to seven
members. These members are elected
at large. The mayor, as rule, is one
of the commission, but has no more
power than his associates, though pc

prophets predict a deadlock between
the two houses. Nobody pretends
to be able to say whether or not
President Harding will veto the bill.
President Harding, upon his return
from short vacation in Florida, was
called upon Monday, March 20, at the
White House by delegation from the
house: Floor Leader Mondell (Wyom-
ing) and Representatives Fordney
(Michigan), Towner (Iowa), Campbell
(Kansas), Longworth (Ohio) and Fess
(Ohio). They discussed bonus legisla-
ton for two hours, with this result,
according to the official communique:
1.-THE legislative situation relating
to the bonus bill was fully presented
to the President, with detailed ex-
PLANTATION Of the provisions which re-
move the menace of excessive drafts
on the treasury in the immediate flu
ture and avoid any program Of added
taxation. The President went over
the entire situation with an appraisal
Of commitments made. He advised
the committee that the legislation is
a responsibility Of congress, and in
view of expressions previously made
he did not think it essential to offer
any recommendations"
The Presidents expressions pre-
viously made" were recommendations
of a sales tax to provide the revenue
to pay the bonus or postponement of
the passage of the measure until the
funds were in hand. The delegation
was divided as to whether the Presi-
dent would or would not veto the bill
if passed.
Everybody was on hand when the
house opened Monday and nobody
seemed to know what Speaker Gillett
intended to do. Garner Democrat,
Texas asked that Mondell be given
two minutes to tell the status of the
bonus bill. Campbell called for the
regular order. The speaker announced
that no one would be recognized that
dry to bring up the bill. Then there
was a conference in the speakers
Office. 1t got nowhere. The speaker
held that he would not assume the re-
sponsibility of letting the bill come
up until he had the express command
of the majority members. Democratic
members of the ways and means COM
mittee made a minority report which
called the bill all the financial, eco
nomic and political names on the
calendar. Tuesday a definite program
for the passage of the bill Thursday
by the house under a suspension of the
rules was announced by the Republic
can leaders.

Public buildings, the experts agree,
should have temperature between 6S

The proper temperature for the
home is about 68 degrees, with bath
rooms at between 70 and IS degrees.
Entrance halls and vestibules- should
be kept at temperature between "a

These are the temperatures for
