"Pop-Up Bill" Dixon knocked a homer in the ninth which decided the con test.

Bulletin No. 1 A Mistake in the Policy of the Bethlehem Steel Company To the People: The Senate of the United States has pussed a bill to spend $11,000,000 of tho People's money to build a government armor plant.

Chairman EUGENE (J. IW.Icnl Bethlehem Steel Company Messrs. White, Myers and Nel- giving business matters his at-son were among theKnights of tention. the Grip who waited on the Artemus merchants Tuesday. Responding to many inquiries, Tom Cox says that the building is now complete and ready for occupancy.

lie said this is for the benefit of the many inquisitive ones who first didn't understand the situation, but it is possible that their comprehension of the matter is now greatly cleared up. Agreements are now being gotten up among the substantial citizens of this town whereby they agree to donate lands for right of way for good roads. The good people circulating these agreements have met with a generous response on the part of the citizens. Some few, we regret to say, want to hold out in the hope of getting some of the coin of the county in return for the few feet of land the roads would require. Such folks are rather to be pitied for their ignorance than to be censured for stubbornness.

They are so selfish that they cannot cen see that it will benefit them. Such people as that would rather lose ten dollars themselves than to see their neighbor gain five cents. Mr. and Mrs. T.
