SMITH-VIELHAUER.

Miss Grace Vielhauer became an
Easter morning bride when she was
married to Everett Smith by Rev. S.
Monroe VanSant, the pastor at Salem
M. e. Church. The wedding marks
the end of a two years romance.
Close relatives and immediate
friends were the only ones present at
the ceremony, which was performed
after the morning church.
Miss Anna Lorine Boice was brides
maid, while Fred Smith, a brother of
the groom, was best man. The bride
was becomingly dressed in a, tan suit,
while her maid wore a taffeta and
georgette green dress. Both wore hats
to match. The bride wore corsage
of pink roses.
Herman Madden played the wedding
march as the couple passed down the
aisle. Following the ceremony, the
party went to the home of the groom's
parents, 6 Ryon avenue, where a wed
ding luncheon was served.
The young couple will reside at
Ryon avenue.
The bride is the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Walter Copsey, of Baltimore,
Md, former residents of this city.
Mr.. Smith is the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
George w. Smith.

Balloon Tires For
Hospital Ambulances
Michelin Company Making Sur
vey and Recommending New
Tire Equipment.

Evidence is appearing" says Mr.
Bardin, sales manager of the Michelin
Tire Company, that one of the first
fields in which balloon tires will come
into general use is that of the ambu-
lance.
"Ambulances are forced to travel at
high rate of eed-oftentimes over
rough roads or badly paved streets,
since accidents SO frequently happen
in out-of-the-way places, or in those
parts of the city where street pave
ments are worst On the speed and
care with which patient is removed
to the hospital often depends his
chance of recovery.
DR.. George O'Hanlon, Superintend-
ent of Bellevue Hospital, the largest
hospital in New York City, gives some
interesting facts about the problems OF
ambulance service. During the past
year. he tells us, the main division OF
Bellevue Hospital, located at 26th
street and the East River responded
TO more than $4,000 ambulance calls
an average of slightly more than II
calls for every day in the year. This
gives an idea of the importance of the
ambulance in the hurley-burley OF
modern life with its unavoidable acci-
dents. An ambulance ride for an eX-
tremely sick or badly injured patient
is at best a serious hardship. Many
of our calls are in answer to emergen-
cies in which we find the patient in a
critical condition. In such cases ii
often means excruciating agony if the
car in which the patient is riding is
jolted in the slightest degree.
AT the same time, the driver is
usually forced to maintain high rate
of speed in order to get the patient to
the hospital before it is too late. Any
thing that can be done to make the
ambulance ride easier by the use of
special equipment is bound to be ben
eficial. | am told that balloon tires
do this; also that with balloon tires a
car can be brought to stop more
quickly and that skidding is practically
eliminated. If these claims are justi.

A GOOD FRONT PAGE
By THOMAS A. CLARK
Dean of Men, University of
Illinois.

THE theory OF the newspaper man
that it is the front page that sells
the paper is something more than
theory, and it applies to many things
besides newspapers.
l heard a distinguished engineer say
once that badly fitting suit of clothes
had ruined the prospects of many an
otherwise excellent engineer. OF course
it is unwise for any tradesman to ex-
hibit too large a percentage Of his
wares in the show window, but good
appearance makes an effective first I'M
preston, and good first impression,
when backed up by something substan-
tial, goes long way toward success.
If l were in business, I'd see that
the walk or the stairway leading to my
Office was swept clean every day if
had to do the work myself, for l know
that it is the first impression that
often gets the trade.
| dropped into a business office last
week to have an interview and perhaps
to do business with man who is
really genius in his way. The wait
ing room was grimy, disheyeled place
that gave one a repugnant feeling as
he entered. The table in the center of
the room was frowsy with debris and
thick with the dust of weeks. Cob
webs festooned the ceiling and the
floor was Uttered with toothpicks and
cigarette stubs and long, thin rolls of
pussy Willows; yet well-dressed
Ill % n
wait for, the services of a man who
was one of the best of his profession
in the state. 1t was hard for me to
believe that the work which he would
turn out would receive more careful
attention than did his office.
An undergraduate handed me pa
per one day this week to look over
and to pass upon. 1t was rather
thoughtfully done, found when l got
into it, but | had been prejudiced
against it at the outset. 1t was care
lessly arranged and badly written and
wrongly indorsed. and sloppy and un-
tidy in its general appearance. He
had given little attention to the make
up of his front page.
The principle may be applied to
taste-to the rouge put on too thick
or the shoe polish too thin; to slangy
speech and careless manners or to the
delayed dinner call; to soiled collars
and finger nails in mourning or to
carelessly written lecture notes and
halting recitations-lik the combina-
ton tool, it works equally well under
all conditions 1t is true, no doubt,
that the clothes do not make the man.
but they give one a very definite i'm
preston of him; the front page is, of
course, not all the paper. but it is an
excellent index of what one may ex-
pect as he reads farther on.

SPRINKLING WATER
COMES FROM WELL

Many Mountain Home people
seem to be under the impression that
the water which is being used for
sprinkling the streets comes from the
water mains. This is not the case,
the supply being obtained from the
Colthorp well.
The village board are at the pres
ent time working on plans to aug
ment our present supply Of water for
domestic use Water Commissioner
Colthorp informs The Republican
that If the users will exercise care
in sprinkling and irrigation that
there will be no great difficulty in
keeping the tank full so that we
may be assured of fire protection,
but the practice Of allowing water
to run on lawns during the night
must be stopped.

ROBBERY CHARGED;
SHERIFF ARRESTS

Sheriff Arthur A. Stevens on Sun
day last arrested Alfred Allen, on
complaint of doc" Farnsworth, who
charged that he had been separated
from $110, while the accused man
was in his house and during Farms
worth's absence from the room. On
searching the accused man that
amount of money was found in his
hat, and he was placed in the coun-
ty Jail to await examination.
This matter, however, has Sc
quel.
The question of moonshine sud
denly was broaehed, and Officers
Boyd, Little and Barrett raided the
premises occupied by Doc. 1t is
said that an empty jug bearing the
aroma of hot mince pie and small
quantity of alleged liquor in bot
tie were obtained. Farnswotth's pre-
liminary examination was to have
been held before Justice Norell on
Tuesday afternoon, but a petition of
incompetency was filed before Judge
Manion before the time set.
