MT. STERLING, THE BEST
BUSINESS CITY or SIZE

w. K. Childers and wife, of CO.
lumbus, Ohio, who have been here
visiting Mr.. Childers' father, Rich
ard Childers, and other relatives,
returned to their adopted home to-
day. Mr.. Childers said, 81 note
your progress; you are going some.
The old city had outgrown my rec
objection. That hotel project is
great. Should l stay away a few
years after the completion of the
hotel, am sure l wouldn't know
the old town. You will be proud Of
il and it will do much for business.
The Advocate is a twice. a. week let
ter to us and business has to stop
when it enters our place of business.
Wife and | are crazy about the
twice-a-week Advocate"

RETURNS TO THE FOLD
CLOSING HOURS

Senator W. g. Dycus, lately term
ed boiling. Democrat, returned
during the closing hours of the leg
islature and blocked Governor Nor
rows game at veto. The registra-
ton bill is passed. This is strictly
party measure and is an aim to
prevent illegal voting. 1t is an hon
est, fair measure regardless Of
where the chips may fall. This
measure, that of the leaving off Of
party emblems on the Louisville bal
lot, is helpful to honest elections.
The best of humor prevailed dur
ing the closing hours, all enemies
having kissed and made up. The wo-
man representative had not made
any enemies, hence there was no
kissing coming to her. Vale, Leg
islature of 1922.

He spoke with some difficulty and

study and from which he was gradu-
ated with distinction in 1905, when
he was ready to take up the active
duties of professional life, which he
lid by beginning the practice Of law
at his old home.
During Reynolds entire school and
college life he achieved great sue

the athletic sports and pastimes
which play such an important part
in school life the world over and
which frequently have so marked =

Marshall, with his eyes fixed stead

declined many flattering offers from

continued however to pitch for his

to allow athletic honors to interfere
