A “thank-you-mam" in front of the Darien school house, in the village. is causing trouble for autmiiobilists and affords much amusement for a crowd every Sunday. There is no danger oi speed violation at the point mentioned if autotnobllists have warning of the place before they strike it. for to pass over the spot at even the legal rate of speed of twenty miles an hour en- tails serious danger of breaking springs. This bump in the road has the appearance of being built lutcn tionally by someone and consequently produces no amiable fame of mind for those who strike it uuawares. CHILD LABOR COMMISSION.

In buying Poultry Feeds and especially for little chicks you must be familiar with the food stuffs on sale. because there is a tendency on the part of all millers to work olf grain that Is too poor to sell readily when whole. Therefore it is important to know what to buy, how and where. This yearI have decided to make a little. chick feed, composed of choice grains and seeds, carefully selected and perfectly granulated and screen- ed. I believe it is better titan any bought from out of town (although I wlil buy any brand you may desire) at ‘ you‘wlll call I shall be pleased to have you examine and compare mine with any other.
