KIDD'S MILL PLACE TO
SEE AQUATIC GRACE

If you want TO forget your trou-
bles, drive out to "Kidd's" some
warm afternoon and watch the hu-
man ducks. They are there by the
score, men and women, young and
old. Mack Sennett would do well
to come down and inspect our cole
Swimmin Hole" before selecting his
next cast. Graceful example of over
hand, sidestroke, Australian crawl,
the jack-knife, swan dive and daring
high dives may be seen every day.
If you know how to swim, get in
and enjoy it, if you do not, learn be-
fore you are embarrassed or your life
endangered by your ignorance. If
you are too aged and infirm to par
ticipate in aquatic sports, you can
derive great pleasure as spectator.
You may find yourself gazing upon
embryonic champion who will put
Americas even more plainly upon the
map.

A QUESTION

What is the biggest business
in the world today? Do you
know that you have an interest
in it, and that you may draw an
nual dividends? No, not in cash
but in the one thing that con-
Germs you more than cash.
What dividend would you rather
have than to see your boys and
girls come to their inheritance
properly equipped to get JOY out
of life?
AS society is organized today,
this j s impossible without
schools. Are you boosting for
our schools? Remember, the
dividends are paid in proportion
to our support.
Let US get our boys and girls
in school for the opening day.
The dividends are cut down inn
mensely by postponing entrance.
The Pablic School opens Sep
tember IL. The opening date for
the Academy, also the names of
the teachers will appear in next
weeks issue. Watch for it!
Next month 10000, 900 boys
and girls will be in school in the
United States. Where will your
children be?

Horrors! Klansmen
Make Midnight Visit

Monday evening some of our
leading citizens were awakened
from their peaceful slumbers by
the mighty depredations of our
contempory friends CD the Ku
Klux CD in our peaceful little
hamlet. Wild and hair raising
stories of masked knights of the
sheet and pillow were rampant
for a day or so. Several houses
are alleged to have been visited
by "a large car" while equally
thrilling stories of guardsmen
with rifle in hand gave ample
evidence that the owners believe
in preparedness and protection
of life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness.
Well. anyway, some of our
most quiet, unassuming, bashful,
modest, docile and otherwise
harmless young, girl staged a
slumber party that night, and
the monstrous eight cylinder
car has since shrunk to Ford.
