Death of Honored Citizen

The County has been made poorer
and many hearts saddened by the
sudden death of Mr.. E. p Davis, Of
the Thomas Consolidated School neigh
borhood, which occurred at his home
on January 9Th, as result of an at
tack of acute Indigestion.
Mr.. Davis was an old and honored
resident of this County, man. OF
genuine worth and solid piety. He
had a splendid home and farm, and
was always thoroughly identified
with every movement for the better
ment of his community and of the
county. He was member of the
Baptist Church, and his life was a
shining example Of Christian influ-
ence, and his home radiated influ-
ences for moral uplift.
There are left to mourn him,
his splendid wife and eleven splen-
did children; men and women OF
character, who will continue to help
the world as their father before them.
The interment was made at the
Church cemetery in the present OF a
host of sorrowing and sympathetic
friends.
We desire to add our word of SYM
patty for the family and the personal
regret we feel over his sudden de-
parture to the "other side"

Mrs. Ethel Parker Ide is visiting
her relatives here and, due to the
illness Of her sister, Mrs. Saucer,
is acting as deputy Chancery Clerk.
It looks natural and "old-timey" to
see her back on the old job, but
with all her former efficiency, she
would have to be "going some" to
be more proficient than her sister,
the present very capable deputy.

STEEL VAULTS GUARD HIGH

Washington-(A. P.)-Extraordin-
airy precautions for the safeguarding
of their supplies of alcohol are taken
by the various departments of the
government which use this COM
modify, now so much in demand for
the making Of what in the parlance
of the b~ootlegger is styled "sympa-
thetic" intoxicants.
At the national museum, which, in
the preservation of specimens sent to
it from all parts of the world, uses
only the very highest grade of alco-
hol, the liquid is kept in a steel vault
to which only one employee other than
the staff officers has access. The
key to the vault is kept under a Sc
parate lock.
Supplies are drawn on acquisitions
and the uses made of the alcohol
are carefully traced and checked.
The museum officers say that there
are losses from evaporation and spill
age, but that in their system these
are carefully estimated and due al
1owance made.

ably is the largest user of alcohol in
the government, also has worked out

GAS WAR SPREADS

Omaha. Neb.-Governor c. w
Bryan. te~legraphing the heads OF
principal oil companies throughout
the state, has requested that they re-
duce the price of gasoline to the
minimum price existing in South Da-
kOta. according to a special dispatch
from Lincoln to the Omaha World
Herald. According to this source, a
to reduce prices will meet
with state competition through the
establishment of state-operated fill
ing stations.
While awaiting answer to his re-
quest. the governor let it be under
stood that he will investigate sources
Of supply and wholesale prices.
The dispatch intimates it to be the
governors belief that a move on the
part of the state to establish COM
petitfye stations to handle state
bought gasoline would suffice to
force a price level to the South Da-
kOta quotations, which were 16 cents
e gallon at state-owned stations,

recall the pride in things accom-
plished and above all else, appraise
| the qualities of men and measures
| which made us what we are today.
The latter is essential to the prepared
ness for greater progress in the fu-
ture.
Sturdy men pioneered the way to
early settlement-and sturdy women,
too. They blazed the way of devel-
opment in Ohio and sent many OF
their sons and daughters to the peace
full conquest of the greater west-the
Mississippi n Missouri valleys. Re-
so1ute and able men made secure the
social order here, and simple and
courageous men blended determina-
ton with g-enuineness and made the
industrial beginning. They had little
of wealth but they wrought wealth
out of opportunity. Only a few knew
their struggles, their sacrifices, but
honesty, simplicity, industry, capacity
and determination are known to have
been the chief essentials of their sue
cess. These make for success any
where and are available to all who
aspire.
Let Marion preserve every good
lesson of the yesterdays and resolve
to go on, adding to the stride in in
dustry and commerce, n determined
that every enlargement in material
growth shall reflect larger progress
in the finer attachments which made
a community worth while. The fit
counterpart to the city Of martha sue
cess is the city of happy homes, am
pie education, fortune and profitable
employment, worship of God facili-
tated, a civic conscience and a COM
munity SOUL"

DANCING Pendulum
BACK TOWARD DECENCY

Los Angeles-(A. P.)-Wriggling,
! squirming, jazzy dancing is losing it's
popularity in nearly every part Of the
United States, and modesty, propriety
and reserve are coming back in the
dance halls, according to Fenton Bott,
national director of dance reform,
who attended the summer session of
the normal school of American Ma
tional association of Dancing Masters
here.
The touching OF faces, semi-em-
braces n excess of muscular re-
Spouse to overdone syncopation are
now taboo in virtually every dance
hall in America, said Mr.. Bott. Men
and women have swung back to the
human normal Of prOpriety and good
taste, he said.
1.-THE most undesirable Of jazz
dancing was the result of adding a
dreamy oriental atmosphere to highly
~syncopated music" continued Mr..
Bott. ct is almost impossible pro-
perly to supervise dancing when the
time OF the selection is broken up by
a great number of beats. When the
j~azziest of music is played, it is
hardly possible for the dancers not
to respond.
Improper department. on the floors
or dancing schools and public halls
has become a rarity in HI last three
years. The campaign conducted by
the National association of Dancing
Masters for clean dancing is partly
responsible for the change. It also
is to be credited to the people them
selves.
Private clubs and cafes have been
beyond the influence of the ~associa-
ton, n in these privileged places
jazz dancing in the extreme NAV still
prevail, but the bulk of the nations
dancers, those who attend schools and
public halls, are dancing with as much
modesty, ~propriety and reserve as
ever was seen in the days of the
waltz, polka, schottische and their
running mates.
"The waltz will never be dropped |
and h two-step is still with us in
the fox-trot, but I believe what is
known as the new school of dancing
has come to stay.
THE west has adopted the reform
more quickly n perhaps more
than the east" !

This will not be exactly procedure in Now York, for Democrats Republicans have frequently agreed upon didates the Court of Appeals So frequently has may said have been removed from partisan politics by the two major parties.
 But another action of the committee is exciting good deal of comment, and that is its practical declaration of independence from the Anti-Saoon League The declaration read.

AMERICANS WILL WIN OLYMPIAN
 GAMES?

American sporting writers who have toured Europe and European athletic critics agree that the United States is amost certain 10 win the track and field championship of the world again the Olympan games in Paris next year. This statement made after complete survey has been made of the Scan cinavian and Finland athletes and. strange as it may seem, there, rather than Great Britain and France and Germany, was where uncertainty felt.
 It is expected that tho American 1924 team will be weaker in some points than it in 1920 but it Will be stronger in others Charles w Paddock who has just made tour of Europe and completed sur yey of the timber that will compete with the Amer- cans, writing from Berlin, if the American team next is within fifty points one we had in 1920 he feels that he say eonservatively that America will win.
 However, there is that old saying about counting chickens before they matched American athletes will do we'll if they take nothing for granted and prepare for the meet though one more point were needed to give them victory.
