The Methodists, with "going for
ward" for their keynote, vote 5 to l
in their general conference to lift the
ban on dances and theaters. The old
rule was no amusement except those
which can be used in the name of the
Lord Jesus" Now amusement and re-
ligion can be kept separate, as edu-
cation and religion are separate in
public schools.

Charles H. Mayo, great surgeon,
says cancer will be conquered within
few years" Already seventy to-
eighty per cent of cancers can be,
cured "if taken in time" Remember
that over-eating is one of the prin-

system light, clear, clean, full of ener-
gy, and it will deal with the diseases
that attack it.
Overloaded, it is helpless.

An important meeting of n commit | tee from the plantsrille fire depart nent and the board Of fire commits sionc-s is scheduled to take place in the hose house this evening. The question to be discussed and which has caused a great deal or interest bothin Southingion and plantsyille is the need Of aduquate fire protec. ton for the town of Plantsville. According to the residents the ap- 1 paratus that is supposed 10 protect 1 that section O. the town is over 40 years old and consists Of what is known as a bumper and hook and ! ladder wagon which is generally drawn 10 the fire by the ftremcn. During the past few years this sec ton Of the town has had rapid growth and number Of newer and larger buildings have been con constructed within it's limits. For this reason the people feel that the officials have been negligent in allow ing a section Of this size to be pro- tected by apparatus which was modern 40 years ago.
 IL is understood that the committee from tho fire department win ask the board Of fire commissioners for a new chemical truck of q modern type. If is also understood that if favorable action is not forthcoming from the meeting this evening officials higher up will be consulted on the matter.
