Stephenson and h's gang are trying to have the court strike out certain portions of the dying statement of Miss Oberholtzer. Sure, wouldn't it be tine if they could strike out that part which tells of her being drugged by force and her body mutilated? They would like to have it look like a harmless’ little excursion to Hammond, but it ev.dently wasn't. The circus has gone but the memory of it will remain in the minds of the boys and girls for a long time. There is nothing in all of life that brings quite the same thrill and whether the circus is the greatest on earth or just claims it, the youngsters get a lot of surprises. It's a good thing occasionally to take the boys and girls to see the bright lights of the circus and since this was the first one here in years, everybody seemed to appreciate it. The Ku Klux Kian is advertising a monster parade to be held m Washington on August Bth. The organization by the way, is having a rather difficult time stirring up interest recently. The cream has been takfi off so far as getting easy ten dollar fees from the people and of course when the organizers quit, the whole thing flattens out. The Washington parade will probably not cause any great excitement, if permitted. Fifty chair manufacturers who plead guilty to having violated the Sherman anti-trust laws were fined $166.- ... .. ci fl of ihe federal court in Chicago and there are still 219 individuals and firms who must answer to the charge. The association through which the prices were fixed and maintained has been dissolved it is said and may result in a favorable market. The government has evidently won a complete victory. The laws of Indiana permit you to operate your car at a rate of thirtyfive miles an hour. That ought to be fast enough on the average country road. Watch the crossings, stop, look and listen at the railroads and tractions, be careful and watch for the other fellow. With the perfect weather for motoring the usual danger of accidents arrises and every organization and every newspaper is warning you to use the greatest caution that accidents may reduce to a minimum. This is spelling week in Washington, D. C. Nine boys and girls from various paTts of the United States are gathered there for a contest which will produce the best speller in the nation. The * contestants are from ten to thirteen years old and the winner may feel very proud indeed of the achievement. Os course if he were a golf champion, home run hitter, tennis winner or leader in basketball, track work or some other line he might attract more attention, but the winner of this contest has after all a mighty good chance in the world. Ronald Amundsen and his crew of north pole hunters are safe, much to the relief of the people of the world who had been hoping for nearly a month for a report of that kind from

It may be worth the effort but a lot of folks don't just understand the benefits which would make it so. But then, the people didn't think the trip made by Colum- . bus in 1492 was worth the risk either. Senator Robert M. LaFollette. known during the past two decades as "Fighting Bob” died yesterday at Wash ngton. He has been in failing health for two years, following an attack of influenza and death finally came because of a weakened heart. He had worked his way up from a log cabin in Wisconsin to representative, governor. United States senator and in the last campaign was an independent candidate for president, polling over five million votes. He was able, fearless, and a terrific fighter. While the majority of people did not agree with him. they all gave him credit with being honest in his convictions and few people in recent years at least, underestimated fils ability or questioned the fact that the folks of his home state had absolute confidence in him. o _ — Big Features Os RADIO Programs Today FRIDAY’S RADIO FEATURES WEAF.

BETRAYED BY CAESAR
Lust night he took my Caesar from the shelf. My school days Caesar of the long ago, For he has come to Latin now himself, The Latin which I learned but do not know; And running through its pages found with glee An old report card which belonged to me. The ink had faded with the passing years. But legible the figures still remained ; Vain is the speech I’ve poured upon his ears. For proof of my performance he had gained,. He laughed aloud and shouted out: “I see The best you got in Latin was a three!”.

Exposition on profitable cows and the value of the products of the cow to the health and welfare of the nation. The Fair grounds buildings enable a carrying out of the desires of the machinery exhibitors to make their exhibits available to the trade at set times. The autotuobile show building. which is heated, lends itself to a very splendid uisplay of factory machinery. The Woman’s building is well suited for holding conventions. Another building is suitable for educational work and exhibits, and it will be possible to hold an exhibit of commodities that have been selected by the highest scientific authorities on nutrition as health protective foods. This will be an added feature of the Exposition under the direction of the National Dairy Council. The new cattle barn is one of the best in America, capable of holding all of the cattle exhibits,—pure-bred, grade cows, boys’ and girls' club calves and special breed exhibits. The exhibits of farm and barn equipment will be comfortably housed close to the factory machinery and cattle exhibits. In fact, the whole show will be encompassed in buildings merg--1 ing one with another, all within an area not larger than three city blocks. I The Exposition will bring to Indian- • apolis many valuable messages relai tive to the progress and development of the dairy industry. The only ■ permanet good, however, which the ■ industry in Indiana may receive from - it will be in accord with the number ! of people who attend, see it and carry ! home its lessons for betterment. If r industry, commerce, banking and r business of the town and cities desire - to build their business upon the s sol'd foundation of a successful and s profitable agriculture, they should see 5 to it that the farming interests of 1 their several communities are'organ--5 ized for an Attendance upon this i- greatest of all educational expos!-. |r tioni - ftrr 'improved agriculture. oFr i <r
Betrayed by Caesar! Thirty years or more That book has waited for his youthful eyes. Waited for him to run its pages o'er And catch his father in a pack of lies. “A three in algebra! Just fair!” said he, "Couldn’t my dad get better than a three?” I blushed, 1 know I blushed to see his grin. "You weren’t so good yourself,” . he chuckled low. "I thought you gathered all the honors in, It seems to me that once you told me so,” And then 1 laughed, to hear the rascal add, "You didn’t always stick to business, dad.”
