TWO YEARS

The Harding County Democra-tic Central Committee held animportant meeting at Mosquerolast Friday and elected J. Floer-

sheim the present County Chair-

man for the next two years andwho will be at the helm of theparty during this" time, in thiscounty. Mr. Floersheim has beenchairman for several months andconducted the winning campaignfor his party in the county thisfall. We understand that heceived all but three votes of thecommitte which shows the highesteem in which he is held.byJiisparty, even tho a few partisansin the county would like, to see"him downed and ruined politica-H- y.

We believe the party has "ma-

de an excellent choice in namingMr. Floersheim chairman for heis a tireless worker and will leadthe party to victory if any onein the county can do so.

A FINE CHRISTMASPRESENT

i Lewis P. Scheier came up townearly Monday morning and talk-ing about smiles, you should ha-

ve seen, him in, the ordinary smi-

le was nothing in comparisonwith the one Lewis wore, andafter he became somewhat cal-

med down, he exclaimed, "Theyre twins and whopers. too" andyet we did not know what hemeant, and then that smile cameagain and we learned from himthe fact that Mrs Scheier hadpresented him with a fine pairof twins early Monday morning,one a boy weighing 6V2 lbs andthe other a girl which tipped thescales to 7V pounds.

Dr. Self reports that motherand babes are doing fine andthat Lewis will have a real jobfor the next few months. It tookseveral boxes of cigars to passaround to Mr Scheier many frie-nds as it took one for the boyand one for the girl.

Well, : here's congratulationsMr. and Mrs. Scheier on thetwins and ,4 may, they C' becomegreat and useful citizens.

SANTA HAS HISGREATEST GIFT

We talked to Santa Claus theother day, asking him what timehe planned to come to our littletown, because all the childrenwere much interested ,"to learn.Some of the little ones, we toldhim, feared he might not comeat all that they might be for-

gotten. But Santa smiled."I wll be with you, have no

fear," he said,, "but just the hourI cannot say. If I get lots ofhelp, it may be early, very early,but who knows ? Wheir'the mincepie is in the oven, when theplum pudding is steaming in thepot, when the big gobbler isrisp and brwn and nuts and ra-iso- ns

rest on mother's snowy ta-

blecloth, when sleepy eyes arepened to behold the tree and

tke laughter of all the childrenechoes over fields,and down theaarrow city streets, when ten-

der hearts, just everywhereare all aglow with the joy ofhuman brotherhood, there willnot be a child in all the land thatwill not Kii8r old Santa's beenaround. A little lurp will risein mother's throat and perhapsa tear in dear old dad's eye willtell us that the spirit oí theChrist still lives."

f i'hia ' year Sa aa said, he willhave & v.il L for everyone, thegreatest gift in all the world.Of course he will leave the toys,the apples and the candy sticks,but the candy will be eaten and6ne day the tin soldier will bebent. The big gift is to last for-ever, "an La found it in a man-ger. We forgot to ask his name,but as wc look across the yearsand view the setting sun, wethink that Jesus called it Love,so let us Vatch for it on Christ-mas morn and nourish it thruoutthe year, each day, each momentof our lives. ;

FREEDOM FROM

Discovery by Scientist Haa ReplacedThem.

Pills and salts give temporary relief from constipation only at the expense of permanent injury, says aneminent medical authority.

Science has found a newer, betterway a means as simple as Natureitself.

In perfect health a natural lubricantkeeps the food waste soft and moving.But when constipation exists this natural lubricant is not sufficient. Medícal authorities have found that thegentle lubricating action of Nujol mostclosely resembles that of Nature's ownlubricant. As Nujol Is not a laxativeIt cannot gripe. It Is In no sense amedicine.

CIVIL WAR IN POLAND

ARMY CHIEF BECOMES PROVI.

SIONAL PRESIDENT; MARTIAL

LAW PROCLAIMED.

Warsaw. Gabriel Narutowlcz, firstpresident of the Polish republic, fellbefore an assassin's bullet here.

The tragedy ecurred at an exhibítion of paintings, and the assassin isan artist one Neiwadomskt, long' regarded by his associates as mentallyderanged.

The president liad Just concluded abrief address, and accompanied by his

p and two of the membersof his cabinet, was entering the firsthall of the exhibition to view the.paintings, when Neiwadomskl Joinedthe throng, eagerly pressing about thechief executive to shake his hand.

Instead of stopping in front oí M.

Narutowlcz, however, the assassin circled the crowd to a position in therear. Then, working his way so close Ito his victim that there was no chanceof missing, he drew a revolver andfired three times, all the bullets plerc:lng the president's back.

M. Narutowlcz, terribly woundjd,collapsed to the floor and died withina few moments.

The slayer turned for flight butwas immediately captured and beatenunmercifully, i--e was taken to the police station under exceptionally heavyguard.

Marshal Joseph Pllsudski, formerprovisional president of Poland, hasbeen appointed chief of staff of thePolish army. He replaces General

who has assumed the premiership.

The assassination of President Narutowlcz has aroused the sense of patriotic duty among all the politicalparties and the formation within a fewhours of a new cabinet, through theefforts of M. Rata j, who automatically became president when Narutowlczwns assassinated, and of General

who was called to the premiership, has given the people a feeling of

security. The Immediate summoningof Parliament to elect a new presidenthas strengthened this feeling.

Poland stands tonight on the brinkof civil war. The assassination otPresident Gabriel Narutowlct precipitated a crisis so grave that martiallaw was proclaimed. -

President Narutowlcz was shotdown Just one week after being elect-

ed Poland's first president of the national assembly. Bands of Polish facistl are gathering and threateningvigorous measures to gain control ol

the government.On the other hand, the Socialists are

arming for conflict, meanwhile muttering threats of a war against the PolishNationalists.

"They said: "Which one?"I said: "The one on the Inside. She

thinks she is so swell, and she is onlya switchboard operator."

I then remembered one of the girlsI was with was a switchboard opera-
