Foreign Representative Carpenter & Company, 122 Michigan Avenue, Chicago, Fifth Avenue Bldg., New York City N. Y. Life Bldg , Kansas City, Mo. Is there some way in whiph you can help make this a better town?| We are certain there if if you will think hard enough and then work a little. We have passed the place wherd' hot air will do any good. What we need now is action. Remember we are right up to the corner and we must back up or move >Mi. Lets take-dawn any barriers and put on a little speed. Have you paid your taxes? The time for that necessary and often painful duty expired Monday evening. Those who overlooked it must add the penalty or become delinquents. The Indianapolis News says about the only consolation one could get this year is the fact that taxes are not as high as they will be next year. With the state owing four million dollars and running behind more each month there is no immediate hope for a less tax unless it comes from local sources. It takes more than a pile of coarse stone to make a good road. The state highway between here and the Allen county line has had enough stone put on it the past couple of years to build several miles of good road. Just ordinary common sense teaches , us that if the stone is simply unloaded on the road, it will be thrown off by passing cars and but a small portion is ground in to the road and left there. This is, we are informed a poor time of the year to place stone on a road but if it is used it should by all means be rolled. Did you read the interesting feature story by French Quinn in last evenings paper? If you didn't we hope you do so yet for there arc many happy thoughts expressed in his original style and among other things a list of all the trees and plants and weeds which grew here in the days when the husband of the household could take his rifle and step out in the back yard for an hour to return with his Thanksgiving * turkey, rabbit, jheasant or squirrel. They had hardships but they didn’t have the social and business worries of today and they lived nearer to Gcd and nature than we do. The democrats made a clean sweep in tiie election at Geneva yesterday, electing the clerk, treasurer and both councilmen. The Delta Theta Tau sorority will again sponsor a “Good Fellows Club" similar to that of last year. They will try to raise three or four hundred dollars and this money will be used to buy clothing and other useful . gifts as well as dolls and sleds for the poor children of the city that they may have a happy Christmas. The cause is a worthy one and the young ladies are to be- commended for their efforts. The people of the community will respond liberally we are sure. Democrats and republicans can secure comfort from the returns in yesterday's scattered elections over the country. Vermont continues tc be strongly republican while Kentucky, Maryland and Mississippi remain democratic. In the seven con

gressional races it is probable no changes will result. Most interest of national politicians was centered in Kentucky where the republicans hoped to elect a governor and where national issues were discussed. Early r returns indicated the election of Wilr‘ Ham Fields, democrat by about fifty thousand. Elections in many towns r • and cities over the country were decided on local issues and held little political significance. In many of the 8 smaller towns the tickets were independent of politics. 3 g . The mayor of Frankfort has decidJ j ed to enforce the law strictly as to ) Sunday dosing and the popular theme > in that city just now is "the blues.” 1 As always in such cases there is a dispute as to what is included under the law and strictly only the hotels and eating houses can operate. This leads us to wonder why we have gone on for so many years violating the law everywhere. Os course public sentiment has brought about the conditions. We would put up an awful "holler” if we couldn't have our paper Sunday morning, buy a cigar, a little gas for the flivver, some candy I for the children, etc. And if this is right, why don't we modernize the laws and make certain things perinissable there under. It would stop all this foolish talk about enforcing , “blue laws” and acting foolishly. i o < 1 b i j!

H. Antics, secretary of Jthe Nebraska , Public Welfare department, declared i before the National Social Hygiene conference here today. In Nebraska there seems to be a feeling that we have just finished a carnival of law making. We have been so busy making laws for the regulation of people’s every action that we neglect to teach the Golden Rule.” The people must be educated to the [ wisdom of social hygiene regulations before the laws now existent can be enforced, he said. Surgeon General 1 Hugh E. Cumming of the United States public health service in a p-i- --, per declared that every one of tho 12,1 GOO high schools in the nation should ' f be teaching sex hygiene as parts of j courses in physicial education, so l ciology, and other subjects.
