JOHN A. KYLE DIES At
HIS HOME ABOVE MALTA

Last week this paper carried the
news that Mr.. John Kyle of McHen-
ry Station was dangerously i'll. His
death occurred Friday morning
about o'clock. Less than month
ago he took trip to Kansas City,
Mo, where he expected to find en-
ployment, working at that place but
a few days He then went to Nor
borne. Mo, and while there took ill,
and returned to his home about four
miles up the river, from Malta.
Death was due to malarial fever and
complications.
The deceased was the son of Mr..
and Mrs. D. C. Kyle, and was 20
years of age. He was born in In
dianapolis, Ind, coming with the
family to Morgan county when about
seven years of age. He attended
high school one year at GAINESVILLE,
the remainder of his high school
education being obtained here in M,
e M. He graduated in the year
1924. He was a young man of fine
commanding presence, and possessed
a pleasing, friendly disposition that
made him favorite with teachers
and his associates, all of whom
learn with much sadness of his pass
ing. While in M. & M he was prom
inent in athletics, especially foot
ball He was member of the Main
Street Church of Christ of this
place, taking an active part in the
work of the church. He is survived
by his parents. A sister died in in
fancy.
A marked characteristic of the de-
ceased was his devotion, to his home
people, his parents-his love and
thoughtfulness for his mother being,
we are told, an especially strong and
beautiful trait, which was manifest
in many ways, even on up through
his illness and suffering and to his
last conscious moment, which was
shortly before his death.
Funeral services which were
largely attended were held from the
home Sunday, at l o'clock, and were
conducted by Mr.. l.. J. Coffman of
McCCnnelsville, particular friend
of the family. The pail bearers
were near associates, and for the
most part his M. & M. school mates
They were Glenn Walraven, Harry
Taylor, Arthur Ross, Edgar Nor
thrup, Dale Smith and Forrest Pat
terson. Interment was made in the
Woodlawn cemetery, GAINESVILLE.

First National Bank of Chesterhill
InStaIIS Latest Protection

Yeggmen who anticipate attacking
the vault of the First National bank
of Chesterhill, O., will want to be
prepared to face everything that the
American doughboy and Fritz ex-
changed as greetings at their party
on the western front during the
World war.
The yeggs will have to cope with
tear, lung, and smoke gas, which
will make them take renewed stock
of Sherman's view of the war The
Anakin Lock and Alarm company
just completed installation of their
burglar proof locks combined with
gas protection. This is the latest
form Of protection against burglar
ious attacks, and the company in
stalling it has already prevented
over 100 bank burglaries
The system installed provides the
vault with a net work of cables
which are susceptible to any form of
burglary attack. If one Of these
cables is tampered with or broken,
all of the original boltwork on the
vault door is relocked and at the
same time, system of gas protec-
tion is released, which makes it i'm
possible for burglars to remain in
side the bank This is Just another
step along the line of Safety First
with the officials of the First Ma
tional bank. The officers and di-
rectors are sparing no expense to
make their bank safe for their de-
positorS.
The method of installation is con-
fidential in some respects, but the
First National bank of Chesterhill
cordially invites the public to inspect
this system, and will be glad to an
swer questions concerning it.

Some Pertinent AdUice for Ambitious Everyday Girls
Don't Try to FIirt With the
Other Man When a Boy
Takes You Out to Dance
and Dine, for You Kid No
One But Yourself
By FAY KING

When q dame has stocked up
on some new swell scenery natu-
rally she likes to- step out and
show herself.
She'll round up any guy that
has the dough to take her dane
ing and dining at the snappy
stops where she can show her
stuff.
You see these DANES mangling
q mean menu and paying as lit
tie attention. to the guy that's
footing the bin as it is possible to
take.
All the while they are eating
and dancing they are flirting with
some bigger and better butter
and egger than the one they are
with.
In other words the guy they
are out with is only their all
buyer.
But If, they could get wise to
themselves they are making a
boob eutta themselves, not Outta
him. Even the fellow who is will
ing to flirt with them thinks they
are more foolish than fascinating.
The way to impress the other
fellow Is to concentrate on the
bird you are wish.
Even il he looks like an alfalfa
farm in the face, treat him like
he was the latest model i'm slleilks.
What you Wanta do, sister, is
make the other fellow wish he
was in your escorts shoes, IN
stead of being thankful you're not
sitting with him and flirting with
the one you're with.
No woman is at her best when
she acts bored, and how can it
be otherwise when you go to all
that trouble to indicate that you'd
rather be with someone else.
A man is more interested when
he thinks to himself what can
she see in him?" than when he
thinks ''what can she see in me?"
A man once took q dame out
10 dine and she sat there flirting
with a fellow at another table.
This bird said nothing but when
the bad news arrived, he stepped
over to the other mans table and
told him he could pay her check,
and would find her telephone
number written on the back, and
walked out.
