And soon conies News Years, rfopel you will be able to write it ‘‘nineteen-plenty-five.” , A fine winter day, if you please and indications for just the right kind of an evening on Wednesday for old Santa to make his annual trip to the home of every good boy and girl. This is Christmas week, the glad l time of the year. Get that old grouch out of your system and replace it with the tonic of joy. Pass a little sunshine around, put on your best smile, do something to make some one else happy and be surprised, at how good it makes yoft feel. We can’t do things without spemling money. If we are to have a paid secretary for the Industrial Association. an Old7lome Week or any activities in 1925, of course we will have I to loosen up the old purse strings an ij if you don’t think it will come back or that what you will get is worth it. the thing to do is to say so. You have just time to remember the unfortunate boys and girls of this community and to help brighten i their Christmas day by dropping afew dimes into the Good Fellow fund.; It makes you feel happier as well a I those who receive the benefit. Do it today. President Coolidge has let it bo known that he will not look with favor upon applicants for public'joi who opposed him in the recent election. He and Ed Jackson evidently learned the game in the same school. It makes it hard for the la Follette crowd and now its a question wheth er that faction submits or fights. Mr. Taft tried the same policy about fifteen years ago ami lit on his nose. The Delta Theta Tau sorority ladies are delighted over the response this year to their appeals for funds with which to guarantee a merry Christmas for the poor children of thisj community. They have now a list of more than a hundred whom they will remember with gifts including toys, candy, underwear, stockings and o*-k---er things. The fund was increased sixty dollars Saturday by ‘‘Tag Day’’ ami is now around the $390 mark. Thais the right spirit, folks.

started out to say is that we are glad to have the opinions of the' people whether for or against it or on any other subject, of common interest. Those who drive past churches oi Sunday evenings should cease th practice of tooting their automobil horns. Whether they do it malicious ly or not we can t tell but we know its awfully annoying. This was particularly true last evening when the children were giving tjieir parts and horns prevented the audience from hearing what they said part of the time. We are sure this calling the matter to the attention of the offenders is all that is necessary. A report sent out from the Riley Hospital for children at Indianapolis shows that during the few weeks it has been open, 124 Indiana children have been admitted and of these 24 | have been cured and discharged. Sixty-five counties in the state are represented by the 100 children now patients there. One parson out of every hundred in the stnte have sule scribed to the fund. It is a wonderful* institution and a fitting memorial to the great Hoosier poet who has gladdened so many hca its all over the world. Rev. Ralph W. Loose, pastor of the church here is very indignant over the forcing of the resignation of Dr. Biggs as head of the Feeble Minded Home at .Fort Wayne Rev. Loose lived within <a short distance of tile home severul years and knows Dr. Biggs well. He describes him as an excellent chrisdian gentleman. one who loved his work and whom every child in the institution respected and admired to a point of devotion. He is an authority on just the thing- needed by the t-uperinteu dent of stfch an institution and Rev. boose considers his removal an outrage. He would be glad to lead a . million Indiana voters iu denouncing Jhe method evidently now iu vogue of dragging public institutions through the mire ot dirty, petty politics We ccnfidently believe his I opinion is that held by the great mas
