CEDARVILLE, OHIO, FRIDAY , JULY 21, 1910 PRICE, $1.00 A YEAR WATER MAINS TO BE 1AID ON MAIN STREET, The way council is proceeding with the Mam street paving in providing for the future rather than haye the Street opened is attracting the atten­ tion of not only the property owners on that street hut about town as well. There is no reason why Cedarville should not profit' by the mistakes of other towns and cities, There was a time when streets were put down and -------------- .. within less than a year some public of Jim Goodheart, CLIFTON V . P, CHURCH CHIMES. “ Our Christian Union convention meets in Chicago next year. —.“As go the Colleges today, So goeq the Nation tomorrow.” , —According to my earnest expecta­ tions and hope, Paul wrote concern­ ing the Plfillippians: What do you ex­ pect and hope for in our church ? —Tite Christian Union will attend tin Xenia Conference in a body Sab­ bath evening to hear the Life Story service corporation opened the street and never put the brick back in good condition. Acting on the advice o f Engineer Shumaker and Solicitor Harry Smith a way has been provided wherein council can lay water mains before the paving is put down. Monday evening a number o f the property owners attended eouncil meeting and all spoke favorable to the proposition, m .fact' there is no opposition from any source. It had first been pro- , posed to lay a line on one side for sprinkling purposes only, This did not suit all the property owners and now provision has been made for two three inch mains on the street with the proper connections. Council will also provide connections for the ho­ tel and Bird cisterns so that these may be filled in case of fire. In fact the three-Jnch mains under heavy pressure can be used for fire pur­ poses. For fear that the present storm sewers would not carry all the water from a paved street council has pro­ vided an extra twelve-inch sewer ,on the west side of Main from Xenia ave nue north which would relieve the situation ■ in case Xenia avenue is paved and more water brought that way. The outlet is through the bridge and gives good drainage. Council will not permit pipes of any kind to be" laid across the street, other than the water main at the bridge. All pipe? must be placed close to the gutter so that in case any­ thing happens the center of the street . will not be disturbed. The gas com­ pany under the direction o f. John Steel has a .force changing their mains in accordance, with council's wishes. Council also proposes to pass a resolution providing a heavy license before any person or company can -open the improved street. It has been, suggested that the license or permit would be $25 for each open­ ing. ■■lift. . . ■- ■■. - • ^ NOTE:—Since the shove was written the Cincinnati firm that quoted prices on the three inch pipe' has canceled same and to lay this size the cost would now be nearly double. Council has not sufficient funds and another plan will have tO;be worked out. PUBLIC SALE. Evelyn McGiven and Ethel McEl- wain will sell at public sale on Sat­ urday, July 22, at .2 o’clock, their Cedarville property ,located on Miller street. ■ ■ I f you want a bargain attend this sale. ■.

A lot o f hoary and silk- robed fallacies, like that about the divine right to rule (and ruin), that we have respected as truth, are being blown to flinders by the big guns. —An inquirer asks concerning this Comer's recent quotation to the effect that to say “ Rev. Smith” is vulgar: “Would you give a man two titles— Rev. and Mr, ? " Yes, when correct speech requires them. I f one speaks of Rev. John Smith, he may omit tl “Mr.” ; but if he wishes to omit the given name and include the “ Rev.” , he must say, “Rev. Mr. Smith,” or be "vulgar;” “Rev.", is an adjective, Mr. a noun.

He replied: “Yes, I have been a Christian off and on for twenty-five years." That is thy trou­ ble with a lot o f church members— they are Christians “ off and on.” Some of them mostly “ off.” . -The old banker, loved to count the gfild in his bank. Every morning he would get out a sack of the yellow metal and count it. One morning a customer came in and saw him at his desk handling the golden eagles—saw the smile of satisfaction that played upon his face. He said to .the old man, “Good morning,” but there was no response from the counter of mon­ ey, only a hurried, annoyed glance at the customer. The visitor leaned toward the old man and said, “ Ex­ cuse, me, sir, I did not mean to dis­ turb your worship.” SUMMER SCHOOL CLOSING CONCERT The second annual Summer School concert will occur Thursday evening, July 27th, at the Opera House.

Notice is hereby given that a peti­ tion by the owners of lots in the im­ mediate vicinity of the alley between the Marshall lot and the Bird lot and known as the Marshall and Bird alley, has been presented to the Council of the Village Of Cedarville, Ohio, pray­ ing for the vacation of said alley; that said petition is now pending be­ fore said council, and final action thereon according to law, will be tak­ en on and after August 7, 1916. J. W. JOHNSON, Village Clerk, k Cedarville, Ohio. June 23-80, July 7-14-21-28 Aug. 4 lias given approval o f the Marshall plan. The Chairman is carrying on a, good game of double dealing that promises to. result more disastrous than when his conducted his first cam­ paign on a reform plea and at the same time made certain advances to a colored organization here that were turned down and of which more may be told through these columns at some future time. Across the water all kinds of medals and crosses are' being given for merited service during the War. Their are gold crosses, iron crosses and various other insigmas given for honor and valor. The Hon. JarneB Rankin of South Charleston, banker farmer and a leading citizen, in Clark county and for many years connected with the State Fish Commison, was given a cross without ceremony that was never made known except to a few friends until just recently. At that time so far as we know James was never Entitled to any honor for military service but for devotion and service to his party he was entitled to the Highest degree. Rankin sought .1 place on the State Board of Agriculture, the necessary recommendations wore secured and Congressman Fess promised to ask Gov. Willis for a personal-appoint­ ment. But the good Dr. failed in his promise and had the honor of decorat­ ing James with the “ double cross” , a degree frequently used by politicians. On August 8 we hear that South Charleston and vicinity will celebrate by use of a lead pencil cross in re­ turn for the “ double cross” bestowed on Honorable James. The Honorable Harry Daugherty should get in touch with James. The Good Dr. was one of the first to write an indorsement of Daugherty. Later the good Dr. made up his mind that he alone was the only qualified man in tile state for the senatorship and then insisted that Harry get out of the way. But Harry didn't bluff and is still sticking. : or Miles’ Anti-Pain I'in* tar ait pata CHURCH SERVICE. . P. CHURCH (MAIN CTREEf) J. L.
