This is the longest day of the year and incidentally the first day of summer according to the calendar. You folks who imagined you were having summer were mistaken. It opens today and runs three months. The supreme court of Ohio has de tided that a filling station is not necessarily a nuisance. It evidently depends on the appearance, the noise, the smell and the general conduct and upkeep of the place. An Arkansas man is claiming he wore a back collar button twenty-eight years and is still using the same one and the Chicago Tribune is willipg to bet it wasn’t a collar bUlton at till, but a wart. The first day of summer is a good time to begin to think about the first day of winter. The next three months will roll around speedily and you will need some fuel and food Cor fall, winter and spring and the wise birds gather it during the summer season. A lot of newspapers which conducted a several years campaign against the watchful waiting" policy of Mr. Wilson are discovering that it is now probably the wisest course for Mr. Coolidge. They also find that a lot of people want the Usited States to take charge of Mexico and keep it. Seems to be the old fiht. Lets see how its handled. The recent rains made the weeds grow as well as the crops and if you don't watch them they will soon be putting all other vegetation out of business. Better get rid of them now. Cut them now and again in a fetv weeks and you will have them licked. Pull them from your gardens and your flower beds. They are a nuisance for you and your neighbors.

The official bootmaker has just completed a new pair of slippers to be used by President Coolidge while resting at the summer White House at Swampscott, Mass. They are made of panama straw’, lined with red velvet and are tied with a white ribbon bow. Now if some one will provide him with a cute little smile, he will be all fixed for the summer at the beach. Senator Jim Watson will bq the principal speaker at a republican rally to be held in Fort Wayne this week and is expected to announce his candidacy for re-election. It won’t surprise a soul, for everybody who knows Jim knows hq wouldn't be racing over this state at this season* of the year unless he Is candidate and a scared one too, who fears Beveridge and several other probable entries. Yesterday was Father's Day. We' don't know where It came from or | bow it got started. It doesn't seem to create the interest that Mother's Day and other events observed during the year do and we are half inclined to believe it dad’s own fault. If they don't go too far with it however its alright at that and it dad didn’t expect too much and used the day for getting a little better acquainted with his boy and girl, he probably found they think a lot of

| him and can be of great comfort and 1 assistance. Well, we are starting another week. Will you make it good or bad? It’s up to you. It you are a merchant and will do a little planning and a little advertising you can make it a bigger week than you had for the corresponding date last year. If you are a farmer you can take advantage of the weather and the prospects and make this week a better one; if you >are a laborer, a clerk or in any other .line of endeavor, you can if you try, . 1 'make this week a good one. Those who do will have it ail over those who just quit and say times are bad and its no ttse. The legislature passed a bill providing for increased license fees, with the understanding the money was to be used for road purposes. They also took the inheritance tax away from the counties under the plea that the money was needed to build a road system in Indiana, equal to that of other states. Then Governor Jackson got through his bill placing it all ■in one big fund under his direction. Now he proposes to take a million and a half dollars from these funds to pay on the state debt. The debt hould be paid but the thing the people ought to object to is the underhanded methods used to get the money. Why not use the money raised to build roads for that purpose and the money raised to pay the debt for that? Then we would know just where we are at —maybe.
