Other Names.
Through some cause we find the following Bloomington men who were in service are not included in the list furnished from State records. There may be others who do not ap- pear here, but it is because we are unable to obtain same at this time, but we must be grateful that the list is as near complete as it is :

LEGION MAKES PLAN TO BE- GIN DRIVE FOR NEW MEMBERS
Nineteen men composing the ad- visory committee of the American Le- gion met in the Chamber of Commerce rooms Jan. 24, 1922, and completed plans for initiated plans for the mem- bership drive of the Burton Woolery Post. Stunts rangnig all the way from collecting the trophies of all the wars since the Revolutionary about the public square, visiting the various outlying towns and putting on a pro- gram and having the 155 millimeter guns of Battery D. on display about the public square were discussed. The plan finally agreed on was personal solicitation, publicity and solicitation by mail. The members of the ad- visory board were each given slips and told to start a pre-campaign of personal solicitation among their friends. Fifty new members have signed up to date.

CAR OWNERS
Tires are subject to every kind of injury and are required to stand the very hardest service of any part of your car. They become ill, much as does the human body when neglected, and need a doctor.
WHEN YOU HAVE A TIRE REPAIRED you want the very best work and ma- ' terials applied in the repair of that tire! Don't you? That is just what you get when I repair your tires. The famous
HAYWOOD TIRE SURGERY
is the method I employ, in repairing every injury, such as TREAD CUT, SAND BOIL, BLOW-OUT, LOOSE TREAD, OR RIM CUT-I make a specialty of SAVING RIM CUT TIRES. Come in and watch me work.
You can save money by allowing me to put several thousand more miles wear into your old tires. I guarantee every job I put out to outlast the tire-and I stand back of my guarantee.

THE ARBUTUS
I S the picturization of WHO'S WHO AT INDIANA UNIVERSITY. It is also the history of the past year of University life. It was established here years ago and is now one of Indiana's institutions. It is and always has been the annual publication of the Senior class. The Centennial Arbutus of 1921 has been recognized as the best volume ever issued. It was not only the most complete, but was the direct result of the best editing and business management ever devoted to this cause. It was a triumph, but it had one defect. It was not attractive.
THE 1922 MEMORIAL ARBUTUS WILL BE ATTRACTIVE
IT will be bound in a beautiful cover. It will contain a four-color section of campus views never before pub- lished, a group of novelty photos of the campus taken from an aeroplane and pictures of the proposed Memorial buildings. Aside from this, the book will embrace all of the usual features among which will be included all of the new organizations, etc.

Keeping Faith
I
N ancient days of merchandising the traders operated under the theory of caveat emptor-which means, "Let the buyer beware." It may have been a good law, but to our notion it was an inexcusably bad business policy.
There is great satisfaction in knowing that what you buy and pay your perfectly good money for is backed by the store you bought it from; that in case of any possible defect in your purchase you may go back for reparation-and be sure that you will get it cheerfully.
It is nothing more than right and just, that you should have this protection-the protection of Guarantee which this store gives to all its customers.
We would not be keeping faith with you unless we dealt fairly and honestly with you. The goods we sell must be absolutely satisfactory to you as well as to us- if they are not, we make them so.
No matter how much or little the article you buy may cost, if you are not fully satisfied with your purchase you may return it and
