DON'T LET ’EM GET YOUR GOAT: — A leading casualty insurance company ha s issued a pamphlet which contains some sound and sensible advice. Under the caption. “Don't let the elephant and donkey get your goat." It says: "Yes. this is a presidential year. There is an election in the offing. And of course, folks are talking politics, but why should we he filled with melancholy meditations? "Cheer up. We have had presidential years before and we managed to somehow, live through them. It's reasonable to assume that we'll do so again. Do you know the real reason presidential years are reputed to be ‘bad for business?' Well, here's the deep, dark secret: When the circus) managers bring out the donkey andj the elephant and begin to dust off the l old hand wagon, why, we all stop to' watch the parade. And no one ever waxed wealthy watching a political parade. "There’s no reason in the world why the man who keeps right on hoeing hi s row shouldn't come out way ahead I in a political year, just the same as any other time. Truth to tell, he' should do better than usual, because] there isn’t so much competition. Most people aren’t even trying. You are up against the same proposition as the salesman who finds he can do twice as much business on a rainy day, because his competitors are all haunting hotel lobbies, satisfied with the alibi that 'nobody can sell anything on a day like this.’ “For goodness sake, let's face this presidential question sensibly. Just because we are going to send somebody to the white house, there's no reu son why the rest of us should go to the poor house. But that's where we may land If we quit hustling and decide that there is no business to be had until after election. "By all means, take an Interest in politics and vote according to your honest convictions. You might even go so far as to make a few stump speeches for your favorite candidate, if you just can’t restrain yourself, but don t let the elephant or donkey get your goat.’" Henry Ford will help enforce the eighteenth amendment and those who report for duty at his plants with a fiery" breath should be prepared to seek other employment. An order just Po * t «d in the various rooms of the ' hi * reads: “From this date on < nlssai without opportunity for ap- I P*»i wilt K- .u ” the Pena lty Imposed on < beer winJ° Und t 0 haV ® the odor of ‘ --"^^rh~Tb onhißH amendment is „ , el «hteenth m.nta!

Face to Face With Channing H. Cox Governor of Massachusetts (By Joe Mitchell Chapple) Associated with the earliest career of President Calvin Qpolidge iq that of his successor, Channing H. Cox, governor of Massachusetts. As lieu-tenant-governor with Calvin Coolidge he proved an active and attentive assistant to the executive head of the commonwealth and trained himself for the promotion. Although Governor Cox was born at Manchester, New Hampshire, and naturally drifted to Dartmouth, like many Dartmouth lads, he followed in the footsteps of Daniel Webster and came to Boston to launch a legal career with a prelude of politics. Elected to the legislature, he proved, through his faculty of making friends and his ability, a public servant of the kind that succeeds in the Bay state.-’ The same popularity he enjoyed as a' student, in Dartmouth followed him to Boston. He was elected governor I of Massachusetts by an overwhelming majority the same year his namesake,' James M. Cox, lost by an overwhelm-! majority as Democratic candidate for president. During the Pilgrim! Ter-Centenary Exposition in 1921 he' graced the occasion with poise and dignity, for he believes in the old Dart-j mouth song, “Set the watch and let' not Trdatiions Fail.” At the very outset of his public career. Channing Cox popularized a slo-l gan that was fulfilled in his admlnis-' tratlon as governor: “In government there should be better business methods, and in business less government interference.” “I long believed that the budget system was the only practical way of working out the problem of war tax ■ indebtedness—and the test proves it.” A pioneer in the budget plan, the state of Massachusetts confronted ( some knotty problems at first, which | worked out, has saved the federal govI ernment large sums in the adoption of the budget system. In appearance Channing Cox is of

more than their share in any way requested. That’s the spirit, boys. With such support these is no chance to fall down and we ought to keep at it now until the pool is assured for next year. We are sure every organization in town will give similar co-operation to this movement. Reports from over Adams county show that the wheat yield i B large and the crop of splendid quality. In addition the hay crop is excellent and the oats looks fine. The corn crop predictions are not bright and yet in some sections indicate a very good produc- , tlon. Beets are coming along nicely , and it is believed the crops this year will be the best ever known in this > territory with over 10,000 acres of growing plants and 3,000 of thi B in I Adams county. Prices on all products . are higher than last year and the averi age farmer will fare better than for i several years. This is great news for a rural county like this and means much to every one. The democratic leaders in session yesterday decided to make an earnest and direct campaign on state issues, a wise course for there is certainly much to talk about, not only because of the sensatiorfal arrests and conviction of officials but more Important even, the unwise policies which have caused greatly increased taxes and burdens for the people. The voters of Indiana will be reminded of these things in due time and a new deal asked. o ♦ TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY ♦ ♦ From the Dally Democrat files ♦ ♦ 20 years ago thia day ♦ tmm’L 25 ~ Mlnl » ter B decide to take 1 ball'ana'* ‘ CUOn aßttln,t Sunday base- j and operating saloons on the Sab- i nounced. y ’’ ttn ‘ 1 Dratur people who missed Hunday (

CHANNING H. COX says: "In government there should be better business methods, and in business les s government interference.”

medium size, with the ringing voice of a speaker. Possessing the genial ways of a mixer he belongs to everything joinable. Although scheduled | for the United States Senatorship, he i decided to resume the practice of law i after many years of public service and | making his record as a real type of I New England governor. “It ha s always seemed to me that , every citizen should assume willingly I some public responsibility, as well as jto serve on a jury. You cannot have I good government unless all citizens | participate and not permit the rights i which cost so much to go by default. , There has always been and always will be enough good citizens to control i the government, if they will but give j themselves devotedly to the task. I have always felt that no greater honor ! could come to me than to have been governor of Massachusetts.” With the application of his stock of common sense to public matters, Channing Cox faced the after-war problems with business-like determination. While kept busy gracing social and public occasions, maintaining the poise demanded of the executive head of the commonwealth under the golden dome on Beacon street, he set a high watermark for successors to follow, as he was. in turn, given a high! standard to meet when he took the chair vacated by Calvin Coolidge to* become vice-president and later presi-' dent of the United States.
