An echo from th“ WlldervlHe pul- , pit: When all else falls, tru'h| •lands fast. When the heart Is des-1 olate and the world affords no shel-1 ter, truth provides a peaceful refuge| and a quiet rest. The cares of life I are many and the trail beset with! difficulties, but truth is greater than l care and Is superior to ail difficulties. I Truth lightens our burdens; it lights I up our pathway with the radiance of Joy. Loved ones pass away, friends fail, and possessions disappear. Where, then, is the voice of comfort? Where is the whisper of consolation? Truth is the comforte- of the com fort leae. and the consoler of them that are deserted. Truth does not pass away, nor fail, nor disappear. Truth bestows the consolation of abiding peace. Be alert, and listen, that ye may hear the call ofa Him who said. “I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life; no man cometh unto the Father but by me.” COOLIDGE NOW HAS 382 VOTES is Your- Lucky Number at I I 3 20th Century Stores CANNED GOODS WEEK November 8th to 15th November 8th to 15th Buy a Dozen of Any One Kind of Canned Foods and Get 13, or one Can of the Same Kind FREE -or Buy a Dozen Assorted, Every Can Different if You Like, and Get One Can of Campbell’s Soup FREE VARIETIES Consists of both Fancy and Standard Canned Vegetables, Canned Fruit, Canned Fish.

QUALITY EACH THE BEST IN ITS CLASS PRICE Chicago, Nov. 7.—The full extent Of the Coolidge sweep has been fully comprehended by the political ex- ; pert«, If not by the public ut large. The president won not less than 382 of the 531 electoral votes when ad- 'dltlonal returns tonight placed •North ‘Dakota and New Mexico to bls credit. Coolidge has a majority of 149 over Davis and laiFollette combined. That tile Coolidge triumph both in the electoral and the popular vote is one of the two or three great Victories in presidential elections In the history of the country is al ready apparent. The president made a clean sweep outside of the «olid south from the Atlantic to the Pa cific oceans with the exception of ¡Wisconsin, the home state of Sen ator IsiFollette, carrying with the tide the hoftie states of John W. ’l>avls, brother Charley ltryan and Senator Wheeler, la Follette'« run- ■nltsg mate. The nearly complete returns •showing that Coolidge won a ma jority of the popular as well as the electoral vote dumbfounded the pol iticians. There Is no disputing the •mandate given him by the American ■people—18,000.000 or more out of ■tiho 30,000,000 votes cast being for •the president compared with 8,000,- •000 for Davis and 4,000,000 for La- Follette. The popular vote and the plurality of Coolidge were the larg est In history, while his popular ma jority over both his opponents was •nearly as large as Harding's plur- ality over Cox alone.

The farmers are now very much wanting a little sunshine, that they may be able to finish their seeding. The box social which was held at the school house on Hallowe'en was a big success, due to the combined efforts of the teachers and the offi cers of the P.-T. A. A very pleasing program was given by the pupils, two little playlets by the small chil dren in appropriate costumes, were features especially appreciated by the parents. The sale of the boxes and the home made candy brought in to the treasury of the P.-T. A. about 143. We understand this money is to go towards material for the play which is so much needed. Sunday afternoon Mr. and Mrs. C. F. Lovelace and the Rev. Mr. Dix and wife drove to Althouse where Rev. Hix preached to a small audience. The Ladies’ Aid spent a very prof itable and pleasant afternoon at the home of Mrs. Radburn Robinson Thursday. After a brief devotional and business session the time was * spent in sewing. Mrs. Oliver Morrison and son. Lloyd, returned from Whittier. Cal., Saturday night. They were fortun- ate in keeping out of the track of the storm, having had no difficulty at all.
