The new warrant is declared by experts to be counterfeit-proof, and is made to fit a new high speed warrant-writing machine, just installed in the office of State Auditor Laurence F. Sullivan. Another change in the system is in the colors.

Hoosier Anglers Report Fine Luck on Indiana Lakes

Record catches are being re-, ported by anglers on Indiana lakes, it was reported today by Virgil M. Simmons, commissioner of the Department of Conservation. Bluegills, red-eared sunfish, crappies, largemouth bass and goggle-eyes are providing some fancy sport and a number of the fishermen have been taking the limit. Stream fishing has not been so' good due to continued rains but bait fishermen have been taking a number of bass and with continued fair weather stream fishing will be greatly improved. Both stream and lake levels are above the levels at this season last year, one of the factors contributing to. better fishing throughout the state. Fishermen at Shakamak state park have been taking some real W'hoppers out of the lake there during recent weeks. The artificial lake created in the park, has beerstocked with game fish for several years.

Salads are in order all the year round, but there.should be more salads in summer, when the appetite craves and nature provides a wide variety of fresh fruits and vegetables for their making. A vegetable salad may form the paain course at luncheon every day, and fruit salad for dinner several times a week forms a refreshing substitute for dessert. The dressing must be carefully chosen, to bring out the best flavors In fruits and vegetables. Fruit Salad Dressing 1-4 cup vinegar or lemon jitTce. 1- 4 cup salad oil or melted butter. > r 2- 3 cup sweetened condensed milk. 1 egg yolk (unbeaten). 1-2 teaspoon salt.

system of keeping records’ so as to be able to give the public a better understanding of state finances. The new system will enable anyone to tell at a glance the daily balance in each fund. The Auditor’s office writes approximately 400,000 warrants annually. This means that approximately 33,000 warrants are written each month, or an average of more than 1,000 each day. The filing duplicates of the new warrants are made forty to a sheet, whereas the old system was only five to a sheet. Thus the filing space for duplicates of warrants is reduced 87 1-2 per cent. The new system will enable the Auditor's office to make more prompt distribution of funds.

“Grass Rooters” and “Crusaders” Debase Lincoln "Grass Roots” convention at Springfield, and again more recently at the “Crusaders” convention in Cleveland, sounded the tomtoms with a battle cry of “Save the Constitution.” At Springfield and at Cleveland, the delegates made wide spread use of the name of Abraham Lincoln. They visited his tomb and pointed to the great Emancipator as their contribution to history. There can be no criticism of the Republican delegates in their praise of Lincoln, nor in their visit to his tomb, but when they attempt to draw a parallel between Lincoln and the “Grass Roots” convention in the case of the recent Supreme Court decision, there can be criticism. If memory serves, it was Lincoln who refused to accept the seven-to-two decision of the United States Supreme Court in the historic Dred Scott case in 1857, in which the fchief justice ruled that slavery could not be abolished by act of Congress under the constitution, and as soon as Lincoln took office, in his first inaugural address he said: What Lincoln Said “If the policy of the Government upon vital questions affecting the whole people is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court, the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned (he government into the hands of that eminent tribunal.” The martyrd president not only refused to accept the Dred Scott decision, but openly resisted it by issuing the Emancipation Proclamation, which freed the slaves, on January 1, 1863. The constitution had not been changed since the Dred Scott decision, and it was not until two years later that Congress submitted, and the states ratified, the 13th amendment, which specifically prohibited slavery and gave Congress the power to enforce the ban with appropriate legislation. Lincoln freed the slaves first, and the legalization of his act

came afterwards. Lincoln knew, as President Roosevelt knows, that all power of government derives from the people. Republicans as well as Democrats can revere the name and memory of Abraham Lincoln, but there can be no parallel drawn by the Republican “Grass Rooters” between the Lincoln we know and love, and the “Grass Roots” cry of “Save the Constitution.”

Poor Man

Man comes into this world without his consent, and leaves it against his will. During his stay on earth, most of his time is spent in one continual round of perplexities and misunderstandings. In his infancy, he is an angel. In his boyhood he is a devil. In his manhood he is everything from a lizard up. He may be a smart man, but in some folks’ estimation he is a fool. If he raises a big family, he is a chump. If he raises a check he is a thief, and then the law raises cain with him. If he is a poor man, he is a bad manager and has no sense; if he is a rich man he is dishonest, but considered smart. If he is not in politics he is classed as an unprc^,ressive citizen. If he is in politics he is classed as a crook. If he goes to church he is a hypocrite; if he stays away from church, he is a sinner and damned. If he donates to foreign missions, he does it for show; if he doesn’t, he is stingy and a tight wad. When he first cqmes into this world, everybody wants to kiss him; before he goes out of it they all want to kick him. If he dies young, there was a great future before him; if he lives to a ripe old age he is in the way, and is only living to save funeral expenses. This is a hard road, but we all | like to travel it. In order to* be healthy we must eat nothing, drink nothing, smoke nothing, and see that the air is properly sterilized before breathing. So let’s make the best of it. -0 PAGE MUSSOLINI
