Whistle Closing Hymn

WINCHESTER. Ind. Nov. 16:-A
stage habit that musical comedy
stars employed to arouse enthusi-
asm among audiences has been
adopted by the Sunday school of the
First Presbyterian church Of Win
chester, whose superintendent now
asks the pupils to whistle the tune
of the last hymn as they leave the
church.
Children just learning to lisp their
| lessons and grownups of Bible class
| age all join in the whistling and the
hymns selected to close the services
have a catchy swing.
The Sunday school has an orches-
ira of bobbed haired girls, playing
stringed instruments.

RETAILERS READY
FOR new SEASON
Industrial Change Making
City Dependent Upon
Farm Again, George
Henley Says.

George NJ. Henley of the Retail Mer-
chants Association looks out upon the
New Year with q degree Of cheerful
ness.
Mr.. Henley says there is no use to
deny the facts1hat the country is un-
dergoing an INDUSTRIAL change, it is
merging from a holocaust of riotous
spending and speculation and the ma
tural laws of finance are giving us q
needed lesson and there is no reason
why we should suffer very severe
losses while the change is being made.
Mr.. Henley says also there is no
denying the fact that we must turn to
the farm for wealth. Every farm is a
factory creating wealth. These farms
have not produced money crop. That
shortage must be made up.
In speaking of the condition of the
merchant, Mr.. Henley says they have
bought carefully. They have used un.
usually good judgment. They have
bought in small quantities and have
kept their stocks at all times at their
command and as Il result they will get
through the period OF depression in
good financial shape. They are not

who can handle these securities, they
will be taken at par and the city
plans to keep at least one street under
active work all during the year.
Use Nature Material
The kind Of material that will be
used is also interesting to the public.
This county has vast deposits of as
phalt but, according to Mr.. Dyer.
asphalt paving is not the kind Of paw
ing the people need for service. Many
streets have had to be repaired. In
some instances property owners have
had to contribute toward the expense
IN order to get IL done. 1t is Mr..
Dyer's belief that asphalt is good
material but that contractors have not
learned TO use IL, they have not learn
ed how to mix 1t and prepare it so it
will make a permanent street and it is
his opinion that the city should wait
until such time as men learn how TO
pave with it before any more money is
wasted in making experiments.
Manager Dyer gives expression to
the opinion that brick makes the best
pavement. lie will use this material
on Second Avenue northwest which Is
TO be improved at once.
The city Is planning TO give the
citizens full cooperation in q business
way during the New Year. If the
plans that have been formulated are
carried out, 1922 will be the greatest
year in the history of the city. 1t
will do more in the way of permanent
improvements than II has ever done in
one year before.

Dyers Plans for the New
Year Will Be Benefi-
cial to Town and
Country Folk.

The city Of Ardmore is making some
very interesting plans for the New
Year according to statements made by
City Manager Kirk Dyer.
Water is the prime necessity, he
says. Tho question between the city
and Mr. JONES will be settled in the
courts and whether the sum to be
paid Mr.. JONES is $4,000 or $4,000 it
is with the courts and the greatest
care will be taken TO do justice to all
The plans for the year as far as
water is concerned is 10 ask the people
to vote bond issue for that purpose
Then work will be begun in building
great dam in the mountains. 4 reser-
voir will be built that will be sup.
piled from two sources. Scores of
mountain springs will empty into it
and In addition it win drain wide
area and viii gather surface water.
When the dam has been completed
the city plans 10 build a good pipe
line TO the city. one that will be
large enough TO supply our needs for
many years and one that will be so
we'll built that 1t will last for an in
definite period.
How much money will be asked OF
the city has not been determined. The
chances however are that the bond
issue put before the people will be
for approximately .250.O00
Market Place Planned
Manager Dyer also has another very
interesting proposition which he will
probably place before the people. lie
has planned the purchase Of the Cen.
trd wagon yard property which be-
longs TO Joe Weiss and which is locat.
I'd half block north Of Main street
streets. In case the city buys this
property 1t will be used as a market
place. Farmers can bring their sup.
plies 20 this place. Town people can
20 there with their baskets TO do their
purchasing. Market stalls Will be let
out at a rental and the plans call for
making IL very useful market place
FOR the people OF the country and Of
the town.
The city administration can do no
more than to place 1t before the people
and let them pass judgment upon II.
Paving propositions have not gone
forward hastily, said Manager Dyer,
. for the reason that there have been no
bidders on work. Paving bonds have
/ been a sort Of security that would not
sell. But = company has been found

ARSON THEORY
IS REDUCEDB
INVESTIGATION
Suspect in Wilcox Blaze Ex-
plains Movements to Of
ficials.

Evidence brought out Thursday in
the investigation of the Christmas
morning Wilcox building fire. Fourth
street and First avenue south, tended
to lessen suspicion Of arson focused on
one person. according to b. W. Glen
denning, acting state fire marshal.
The person most suspected gave a
good account Of his whereabouts for
two days previous to the fire, Mr..
G~lendenning said. The investigation
has been continued until text week so
4. j. Trodick may attend the funeral
Of the late Fire Marshal r. S. Men
truM.
Considerable time was spent Thurs
day by Mr.. Glendenning and Chief Iro-
dick looking into the case Of a man
who has had three fires during the last
year. 1T was said that a second party
will sign an affidavit within a day or
so charging the suspected firebug
with offering to pay the second man
to set fire TO a building containing
his household goods. Mr.. G~lendenning
Thursday told two insurance com
panies o to pay insurance money
until his investigation had been com
pleted.
Commenting on the Wilcox building
fire. Mr.. Glendenning said it was due
to the ability and judgment of Chief
Trodick and his men that the entire
block was not destroyed. He said the
way the structure burned shows that
chief Trodick studied the drafts in
the building and cut holes to center
the blaze so that it could be checked
to the best advantage with lines Of
hose.
Chief Trodick. Mr.. G~lendenning and
Roy Barnaby, local fireman and sec
rotary Of the State Firemen's asso-
citation. leave this morning for Helena,
where brief funeral services for Mr..
Mentrum will be held this afternoon
