The Referendum

Orders for coffee and doughnuts or
crackers and milk have increased
nightly at the stores and restaurants
during the past week, and behind
their newspapers the customers have
been practicing the art. The dunking
age has arrived.
Social Note.
Harry Mickey was in town on Sat-
urday, probably on business.
The society editor did not see him,
but the unpleasant aroma of "moun-
tain pussy" permeating the atmos-
phere between The Republican build
ing and that of Harned's Pharmacy
told of the arrival of the successful
hunter.
I'm glad I wasn't around when he
caught it, or them.
***
Dan Thayer is looking for his name
here this week, so I can't disappoint
him, but if he is looking for joke
about him, he'll have to be sorrow
full. A German police dog had him
backed against the wall of his hotel
building last Thursday and it would
not have taken much for the animal to
have attempted to see what Dan was
made of and how he tasted.
When a dog gets vicious for no
reason at all, he'd better be looked
after. There are lot of kids running
around the streets.
*E*
Betty Dawson, one of the Gold Dust
twins of Harned's Drug Store, simply
delights to have people ask him
whether or not lunch room is to be
opened in connection with the soda
water fountain in said store, and if
onions are to be served with the hot
dogs. 1t looks suspicious since a res
taurant was purchased by the boss.
Bet denies it, of course, but said
that if a restaurant were opened in
connection with the fountain Scoop
could have the job of dumb waiter"

Asking Harry Miller the other day
what kind of the cheaper meats his
customers usually preferred, he said:
"They seem to like liver wurst and
weiners the best"
Over in Monongalia county, West
Va, a farmer is boasting that his
hens lay the largest eggs. One just
recently put in nest by some super
hen was eight inches around the long
way and six and one-half inches round
the short way.
Although Archibaldson hasn't gone
into any scientifs research over the
matter, he isn't in favor of letting
them get stale, as he thinks their po-
tential perfume properties would be
too great. He says ordinary size stale
eggs are bad enough.
What Next?
Berne Teter, of the Farmers Bank
said he recently received the following
letter:
l wish to inform you that the pres.
emit condition of my bank account
makes it impossible for me to send

quest.

THE NEW CHEVROLET CAR

Chevrolet's new car for 1882 went
on display Saturday at dealers show
rooms throughout the nation.
Embodying silent syncro-mesh
transmission in combination with
selective free-wheeling, a twenty
per cent increase in power, top
speed of 65 to 70 miles an hour,
stream lined bodies and a wealth of
other new features, the new car re-
mains in price range of the current
series, the lowest at which Chew
rolet has ever sold.
Heralded as ''The Great American
Value for 1882" the car boasts more
extensive changes than any annual
Chevrolet model since the change
lover to six in 1928. Yet changes
are mostly refinements over the
basic design of the 1891 car which,
from the standpoint of public accep-
lance, was the most successful in
the history of the company, and
brought Chevrolet first place in the
industry during the highly competi-
tive market Of the past twelve
months.

time. 1t is good news that the toll Of
tuberculosis has been cut in half in
the twenty-five years the seal has been
at work to help make people well. It Is
good news that this progress Is to be
continued until it can no longer be said,
as now is the case, that tuberculosis
strikes down more people in the first
decade of maturity than any other
disease.
Don't forget your Christmas seals
this year! They cost little, but they
save human lives. They are as much
part of the regulation American
Christmas as the stocking on the
hearth. And you will have the silent
thanks of great army of people who
