Illinois, the veterans had the clamorous support of their kith and kin, 88 well as that of a huge army of private citizens. Petitions urging legislative action for payment of a state bonus at once piled up mountain high in Barrett's office, augmented by. hundreds of requests for more blank petitions and a flood of letters expressing a multiplicity of views but all having the same: central theme- -Pay The Bonus Now.
All of the letters received highly commended Barrett's action in launching the bonus campaign. There were letters from diecharged Veterans, men Satill in service, wounded veterans in government hospitals. There were letters from fathers, mothers and wives of veterans. VALMEYER NEWS Mrs. Earle J.

Few people could believe that this rollicking comedy was one of the outstanding hits of the season of 1920-21 in New York, as its. rapid action in depicting the swaggering exploits of a Mexican outlaw whose forte is raiding the ranches of the Gringos north of the border is so up to the minute that it might have been staged, yesterday. This illusion is emphasized in the fact that the plot deals with a returned, war hero who efforts to re-establish himself as a Texas rancher are made difficult by a couple of sharpshooting "business" men who have plans of their own for the property. Things look pretty rugged for the ex-soldier until a Mexican outlaw, Pancho Lopez, appears upon the scene and proceeds to take matters into his own hands, and, emulating the methods of Robin Hood, with a generous touch of humor, manages to straighten matters out to the entire satisfaction of all but the boys who are looking for.

It has often, been suggested that large rugs as well as small ones may be shampooed at home, but Miss Dorothy Iwig. home furnishings specialist, Unt-1 versity of Illinois College of Agriculture, doesn't recommend it. Cleaning the rug is easy enough if you use a mild soap delly with a little water, work, in small spaces and rinse quickly; but get ting it dry la another problem and one that is not easy to solve. No matter how carefully and quickly you work with the soap jelly and the rinsing cloth, some of the fibres at the back of the 10g may get wet. It may take weeks or months for them to dry if the rug is left on the floor.
Usually they rot before they can dry and then your rug is definitely harmed. HIGHEST CASH PRICES FOR DEAD OR DISABLED HORSES Don't bury dead stock call us. Prompt pick-up of hogs and sheep.
