Glycerine Repairs Glass Scratches

Disfguring scratches on a glass
tabletop, if they are not too deep,
can usually be removed without diff
fculty by a paste of glycerine, wa
ter and iron oxide. Dip hard felt
pad in the paste and rub briskly
back and forth over the scratched
surface until the markings have dis
appeared. This procedure is espe-
cially adapted to removing shallow
scratches. Deep gougings, however,
require more specialized treatment.
Many polishing materials used in
mechanical methods utilize glycer-
inc as an essential ingredient.

were cut up and used for fence
rails, and for building pur-
poses. The "up and down"
saw was built in 1906, and
used by the Munson Mills, east
of Granville. 1t was a distinct
improvement over the whip
saw or hand saw method, the
Munson mill reporting a total
output of 1000 feet per day, in
comparison with several hun
dred by the old method.
These methods were event
ually superseded by the cir
cular saw, and the old slow
and tedious process went into
the discard.
Mr.. Jones said his old home
was built of walnut weather
boarding, as were many in the
early days. The buildings
constructed from 1900 to 1886
were built from walnut tim
ber.
AS the timber supply di-
minished, and the value of
walnut increased, old fence
rails, containing finely grain
ed wood, were utilized and
used as wainscoating, stair
rails, table legs, etc. Many of
the houses built in that early
era, and barns too, for that
matter, were torn down, and
the precious walnut timber
used in their construction,
made into tables, chairs, cab
inets, etc.

a patent threshing machine,
they were getting out wheat

MARK WELL THIS
FACT!

The State of Ohio cannot
tax real estate, without vote
of the people. The constitu-
ton forbids it. And the peo-
pie will never vote for it.
Even your local officials
cannot tax real estate more
than one per cent of its value,
unless you vote for it. Again
the constitution forbids it.
Real estate is protected by
iron-bound conditions in the
Stat tie Constitution - as it
should be. See Article XII,
Section 2, of Ohio's Constitu-
ton.
If anyone tries to tell you
that real estate taxes will be
affected by repeating the sales
tax, or by any other State ac-
tivity, tell him that he is either
inexcusably ignorant, or is re-
sorting to a wilful falsehood.
Tell him he needs to read the
Ohio Constitution.

BEN JONES, Licking
County historian, reading an
article in The Leader recently
regarding the giant walnut
trees which formerly grew in
the Buckeye Lake area, of
fered some corrections which
we are glad to make.
Mr.. Jones states that some
of the trees which grew on
heavily timbered swamp lands
were as much as seven-feet
in diameter, and were many
hundreds of years old, grow
ing to immense proportions.
Thousands of these trees were
felled, and logs which today,
would be worth hundreds of
dollars each, destroyed in the
log burning process used in
clearing the land. Many more

whole machine occupies the
space of four and a half by
nine and half feet, and
weighs about 1000 pounds; it
can be made for any number
of horses with comparatively
little expense.

At this early age, Martin L.
Davey became the general man
ager, and he built a successful
nationwide business, on the
foundation of his fathers creative
genius.
1t was Martin L. Davey who
paid off his fathers debts, and
made his fathers dream a busi-
ness success. He has a thousand
loyal employees, and does busi-
ness of more than two million
dollars year. His concern, The

District, Portage, Summit, Me-

Served as Governor of Ohio
for two terms, 1935-6-7-8.
Success never turned his head.
He was always d e m ocratic,
friendly, sympathetic and natural.
He was never guilty of sancti-
monious pretense. He was always
honorable, always square
shooter, always kept his word,
always loyal to his friends, al
ways devoted to the common
people, and always Embossed.
Davey made enemies, power
full ones, who sought by mean
and despicable methods to de-
stroy him. This was because he
was courageous enough to do his
duty, stand on his own feet, and
not take orders from selfish enc
mics of the people.
And yet Davey has an unusual
capacity and willingness to CO.
operate with all people and legiti-
mate interests. AS Governor, he
gave willing service to tens of
thousands of people. His instincts
are kind and sympathetic and
helpful He fights only when he
has to, and then he fights coura-
geously, and never in a mean or
undetermined wav.

When kidneys are continually
overburdened they often become
weak-the bladder is irritated-of-
ten passage is scanty and smarts
and burns-sleep is restless and
nightly visits to the bathroom are
frequent.
A safe, harmless and inexpens-

help restore more healthy action
to kidneys and bladder is to get
from any druggist a 35 cent box of

how we'll retail industry has earned
such praise. P~rofiteering would be a
very simple matter for any organized
group of retailers, and they could get
away with it for a considerable length
of time. Yet not one major instance of
profiteering has come 10 light. To the
contrary, the retailers of the country
are working in the closest possible CO.
operation with government bureaus in
fighting unjustified price rises. They
are helping show the consumer how he
may obtain better products for less
money. They are featuring substitute
es for articles in which there is a shor-
tage, due to national defense demands.
All in all, both the chains and the pro-
gressive Independents are pushing a
well rounded program, designed to
give every possible protection to the
consuming public-even as it is design
ed to better the market for the produc-
er.
Here is a public service of the
very first Importance. Ybu can thank
American retailing for doing a fine
job in helping maintain our American
standard of living.
