Specifications G AH wires in this fence being No, 9 gu&ge, I t is absolute1y the best proposition on the market There has been considerable agita- . tion the past week an to the need of a water works system for lilt* vil. „ge ■either to he owned by the village or i by some private company, ! .The many recent fires have con- j vinced many of our property hold- ora that there' should he additional protection given our people. The direction of the. win l for the Crouse and (’reswell tires is all that saved the business portion of the town. Had tiie wind been in the east in­ stead ot the west, and tlio tiro en­ gine not working properly, there wonld-have been little or no chance to save the Crouse-meat store, O. II Crouse residence, C. W. Crouse block of three rooms and probably tile i.pera house. To older residents the fire last -week in tiiis section brought back vivid rceollecti* ns of the time when the same section of tlie village was swept clean--in a sin-' glo night. Tipi tune seems opportune for a water works system right now, Money spent for fire protection is uever lost A single fire might, re­ sult in the loss of enough property in the’ pillage to pay for the whole system. The fire engine lias paid for itself many times in the twenty three or (wenty-four years it has been-in service. Those who object­ ed to the.purchase of the engine at that time would not have it removed today, if there was no chance of getting another. . Willie the engine has been of good service and al wii\ s responded when needed, except last week, it must be taken into consideration that practically no repairs have been placed upon it since it was pur­ chased. Like other machinery there is Homo wear and. tin* engine has reached the ago where a con­ siderable sum, estimated at about $1,000, will be required to place it in good condition. The advantages of it water works system arc many and would result m t.he increased value of property. F irst and foremost is the protection thatwonld he derived in the ease of fire. For an ordinary fire the water presshr* would be . b U.Jtitottititih- I n . tremu cases the fire engine could ho used which would give the people of the village fire protection equal to that of the cities. The many other1uses of a water system cannot bo describ ed at this time. For sprinkling purposes dur­ ing the summer months there would bo a. great demand. For sanitary purposes there would he nothing that c<{tdd surpass a first class water system. For generating light power for different purposes there is noth­ ing that could take its place for low cost. The movement for a water works system should receive the support of the entire community. There is nothing that Gedarville needs more at this time than such awat»*r woiks system. I t ’s for the public to decide. DENISONUNIVERSITY AT CEDARVILLE.

At young wife ban lie-n spending too! much money, hut her husband does not say anything because he loves her. In spite ofhiti luyo she rofus- -s to become a nmthor, and upon this depends the development ot the story. Finally Jo r husband' be­ comes bankrupt, iko wife sees her mistake and they both become rec­ onciled.

Don’t re­ gard its selection as a trivial mat­ ter and something tho quicker you get through with, the better. Don’t lie too much influenced hy tho pre­ vailing mode in millinery or the persuasive voice of the saleswoman. Use your own judgment ami remem­ ber that the now hat requires re­ spectful consideration,” says Grace Margaret Gould in Woman’s Home Home Companion for March. “ I f you know hats a t all, you will quickly realize how true this is for even tho moat muoeont-looking hat you can picture has latent possibili­ ties all its <>wu which are worl li se­ rums thought. Think of the, ways a hat, ju st a mere now spring hat, can chango your appearance. It can quickly add to your charm and chic And it can just an quickly make you a subject. It can add, simply by the facing of tho brim or its curv< years -yen, years—to your age, or it can give a fresh, youthful glow to your complexion and ho kind, very kind, in its softening influence upon those tell-tale lines every woman wants to hide, “How as to the now fashions in fiats for spring; First, there ie a ten­ dency of fiio brim to turn upward. Arid upward it does turn in a varie­ ty of ways. On the other hand, a number of picture chapes show a broad brim which droops slightly, but tin' extreme mushroom effect in no longer seen. Head sizes in tho new hats are much smaller, hut this change docs not tend to raise the hat- -that would not bo correct, for the hats that sit well down on the head are still tho mode. Fashion has beereed no one particular ohape in crowns. They vary according to tho lines of tho brim.” • If you aro having trouble in getting good bread , probably th e fau lt lie s In th e flows' th a t Is b e ­ ing used . “ G ladtid inga” flour m eans all th a t th e name implies and will prove so If given a tria l.
