s' $ I INFORMAL COUNCIL MEETING, Th«r« w«# an informal meeting of council Monday evening, all members were ffsrewnt butJ w cleyk. Mr. John- f ” tt Mayor McLean were absent. The fceetmg w«s for the purpose of disouedng the street lighting ques­ tion with representatives o f the light company, Messrs, Kelley and Hutch­ ings o f Dayton, The company for some time has en­ deavored to interest council in a more modem system o f street lighting by doing away-with the art lights and using the incandescent system, ■Th§ present contract has two years and some months yet to run but the company is willing to terminate same » some plan can be worked out by council that will be approved by tbu people.

Next week will see the iirst brick dropped. It might be interesting to some to know that the job requires 100,000 brick, each weighing 10 pounds. An experienced "dropper” can place .10 to 40 thousand brick a day and usual­ l y o f electors approved street light- imr and this has been paid for outside of the tax limit. To provide sufficient funds another such election would have to be held and it has been suggested that the same question be placed before the people at the November election. I f the public endorses a more modern .system a new contract can be drawn1 up. If not the old one will be en­ forced. By the new system more lights can be given the village and more people pleased than by the arc light. Not only, can we1get more lights but there would be a. saving to the village each year over What is being paid at pres­ ent. No definite action was taken. „ brick, This means that the "dropper" will lift one million six hundred thou­ sand ponds or an average of thirty or. forty thousand pounds a day. EXHIBIT URGES CARE OF TEETH G. E. JOBE RE-APPOINTED. Druggists in this county are going to sell more tooth brushes in the week ______ _ _ __ _ following the showing o f the state Jv-e read that Fess wants "pork,” post- humorous as the two have stood al­ most squarely on the policies and ethics of government. Theory is the foundation with each and it is but natural that Fess falls into the lineup when measures are being voted upon that were urged by Wilson. It took Republican Floor Deader Mann of Illinois to show up Fess as a double dealer, one that made speeches one way and then voted the other. Not so long ago Fess attacked some of Wilson’s financial questions. In an­ other speech- he stated that Wilson had called him into conference on that same financial question leaving the Good Doctor in the position of at­ tacking the same thing he favored. The Dr. made a great speech against "pork,’ meaning public buildings for postoffices, river improvements, etc. When, the appropriation bill .came up Mr, G, E. Jobe has been re-appoint- ed as a member of the Board of Con- ___ ,, . trol o# the Ohio Agricultural Experi- 1 foil™ ? public health exhibit at the Greene County Fair, August 1-4, than in any}non, g revious month they have been in usiness. So say the druggists in other Ohio communities where the exhibit has been, shown since it was launched by th e ‘ State. Board of Health at the state fair in Columbus in 1913, The reason is simple. Tho exhibit devotes considerable attention to the subject o f .oral hygiene—the science of caring for the mouth. I f more were known of it, there would be less office buildings at London and Leba- Can you beat it? Two years meat, station by,Governor Willis for a term ending July 21, 1921. Mr. Jobe has just completed one term and sev­ eral years ago was a member of the old state board ,of agriculture. “FINDING THE TERRITORY, This is what Herman Rosenfield, ad­ vertising manager o f Sears, Roebuck & Co., recehtly told the members of the American Ad Club at a conven­ tion : "We have- a bureau whose "duty it-is to read, each week the country newspapers from all over the country. There is not a paper o’f any conse­ quence in our trade territory we do mot get. The bureau looks over these .papers and when we find a town where the merchants do not advertise in .the local paper we" immediately flood that territory With our litera­ ture. It always brings results fa r in excess o f tbs same effort put forth in territory where the local merchants' use their local papers.” drivers from over the state. . The lo cal drivers are taking advantage o f tho convention. ' 1 .. ' many ill3 which follow in the wake of decaying and imperfect teeth. ’ Tho exhibit hammers home .the point-r-that "a clean tooth never de cays.” ____ As a 'large number of school chil­ dren will visit the exhibit while it is here, they cannot fail to be impressed with the message, and a more cheerful resort to the tooth brush at regular intervals will follow. OHIO FUEL CO. BUSY. "When it comes to keeping up with public improvements the/ Ohio Fuel & Supply .Co, never lets the opportunity slip to do their share. When the Main street improvement was propos­ ed, council wanted the gas mains taken up and laid' along the gutter so that in the future-i f it was necessary to: make changes the' street would not have to be opened in the crown.

Only a few years ago Fess said he had been offered the superintendeney of the Cleveland schools but thq board said that he had never even been considered, hut what’s the use o f naming them all? There was an important meeting in Xenia Monday, a meeting that should be of interest to ever citizen, and tho subject was how best to stop bootlegging. There were no members of the W. C, T. U. present, the in­ terested ones being saloon keepers and bartenders. Chairman Marshall ’ was busily engaged in giving the county the “ once over” in his fight against Prof. Ralph Wade for clerk of court. But the Chairman was represented by his ' liquor license commissioners, Dawson Smith and L. F. Clevenger. Thq plan placed before the gathering, so we understand, is to unionize the saloon keepers and bartenders to keep- down. bootlegging and raise -the stand­ ard o f the business. Hie speaker on this occasion came from Cincinnati and evidently knows what he is talk­ ing about. We Would like to make a suggestion, if not out of order, and name Chairman Marshall as the walk­ ing delegate for the proposed Union. It whs only some months ago that the young boss had everything fixed to control the issuance of* liquor licenses in Clark, Madison and Greene ..enti­ ties under what was known as the McDermott liquor license bill. A, ref- atenduBa was called on the bill and the mtqoiffty; overturning .a non little plan to control district politics. Congressman Fess. as president o f Antioch is hearing, of something just at present. It appears that the good Dr., a member of the /national legisla­ tive body has/ ignored,at least two provisions of the constitution. It ‘is said upon good authority that the good Dr. has established a new “Ma­ son and Dixon line” in that institu­ tion, and that all the colored folks that are students or have, occasion to visit the premises must sit in the “Fourth ward section." The good Dr. plays up the colored brethren pre­ vious to ,election, at fOther times is looking after the feelings of Eastern and Southern students who feel eas­ ier under the enforcement of the "Fourth Ward” rule. INCREDIBLE RESULTS STARTLE CEDARVILLE. There has never been anything here with the INCREDIBLE1results of simple lavoptik eye wash. One man’s eyes were so badly strained he could not read five minutes without pain. Two applications. with lavoptik re­ lieved him.
