Sallie Davenport on Thursday eve
ming, January 81. Eighteen members
were present. It was real quilting
party. The work is being done for
the benefit of the church fund. All
of the ladies of the town are invited
to Join the circle and help the cause.

of the Bowers Gun Club being on
the sick list, there was no shooting

Willis johnson has been under
the care of a doctor for the past ten
DAYS. Gilbert Tribbitt is also under
the care of DR.. Martin. Michael f.
FLYNN has been confined to his home
for over two weeks with rheumatic
trouble.
DR.. James G. Martin of Magnolia
met with a serious mishap on Thurs
day evening, January 81. He was
called to the family of Benjamin
Carthari on the south side to rend-
err medical aid. DR.. Martin fell over
board in being ferried over the creek
and it was with great difficulty that
the doctor was pulled back into the
small boat. In falling the doctor
landed on his arm, against the gun
vale, injuring it severely. The creek
was full of drifting ice. DR.. Martin
feels very grateful to Benjamin Car
thar for his service in rescuing him
from the cold, icy water. 1t is quite
likely the doctor will not make any
more night calls on the south side
of Bowers. The tide runs very ST. Ong
in the Murderkill Creek and is very
dangerous to cross during the winter
season. There should be bridge
across the creek. A great opportunity
lies on the south side to the people
of Kent county and upstate if there
was a bridge over the Murderkill at
Bowers. A good beach to erect cot
tages, a good bathing beach and
good fishing beach-the south side
Bowers proper. The legis-
lature is now in session; the proper
presentation should be made by the
citizens of Kent county to the State
Legislature, asking for bridge over
the creek.

PASTURE POINTERS OF VALUE

Here are some pertinent points
for permanent pasture mixtures.
First, choose only grasses and leg
umes adapted to the soil and CHI
mate. Some of the grasses should
be long-lived perennials, so that the
pasture will not deteriorate too fast
after the first year. Some turf
forming grasses are desirable; they
keep out weeds and make a firm
footing for livestock. Grasses with
a large number of basal leaves are
preferable; leaves are more nutri-
tious and palatable than stems.
When possible, include some grasses

TALKS ON GAS
Promises Protection 9
City's Rights.

'The next city administration will
have the duty of protecting the
city's rights under existing contracts
for acquisition of the Citizens Gas
Company" Alfred M. Glossbrenner,
Republican mayoralty candidate, de-
clared at meeting of commission
merchants and employees at the In
dianapolis stockyards at noon today.
1.-THE administration will be con-
fronted with problem which will
affect vitality every citizen of Indi-
annapolis as we'll as every user OF
gas" Glossbrenner said. 1.-THE gas
property is a valuable heritage of
the people, properly made so by con-
tract.
1.-THE courts will determine finally
the legality of existing contracts.
But the incoming administration
has the duty of fully protecting the
rights of the city under the existing
contracts until such time as the
legal questions are decided.
IF elected I shall be certain that
able counsel represents the city in
any and all federal court or other
actions which may be brought to
destroy the existing contracts, press
ing at all times for the fulfillment
of the contracts in the strictest
sense. I shall neglect no opportu-
nifty to enforce the contracts in their
entirety.
Furthermore, in the event the
city is given title to the property
during my administration, I shall
do everything possible to see that
the management plan contemplated
by the legislative enactments of
1929, creating a public utility dis
trict and boards for management of
this or other utility property, is
fulfilled strictly"

CLEVELAND, Oct. 21.-Frank
leonardo, like his two brothers be-
fore him, met a gangster's death
Sunday night. He was shot down in
the dingy back room Of barber
shop while playing cards.

believed to have been active in the
bootleg industry for some time.
There were three men playing
cards with leonardo while six others

Chicago Judge Speaks ON

A Christian Science lecture was

in the Murat theater The lecture

Christian Science offers today the
most comprehensive, the most star

Christian Science is first of all

Jesus come again to the world to
heal the sick and the SHINING by the
same principle and law.
Christian Science in its heal
ing ministry is not patent cure
all, nor is it blind faith cure. 1t
is not the action of will power, nor
is it the action of the human mind.
On the contrary, it teaches that the
human mind must yield to the di-
vine mind, to that mind which was
also in Christ Jesus.
Christian Science comes to the
sick, the sorrowing, the sin-bur-
dened, the dissatisfied, the dis
couraged, offering them a scientific
explanation of the comforting words
of Jesus: Come unto me. all We that
labor and are heavy laden, and I
will give you"rest,' and of another
wonderful promise of the Master:
Behold, I give unto you power to
tread on serpents and scorpions
and over all the power Of the enc
