If you have an idea of running for a county office this year you must file your declaration with the county clerk within the next week. April 3rd is the final day. That wet and dry battle which opens in congress April sth and continues twelve days will seem kind of like old times when the prohibition question held the lead in every newspaper in the country. Each side is now marshalling Its forces and it will be a merry old tilt. Senator Edwards of New Jersey has offered a resolution which provides for a referendum vote on the liquor question in the 1928 election and its our guess thats about what will happen. Alter all its probably a matter for the people to decide and If there Is sufficient demand to warrant the referendum, that will perhaps be the best way to settle it. Gee gosh, now they can’t tell for sure whether that booze was''stolen from the state house or before, whose duty it is to find out, just how to go at it, who to blame. Some expert investigator will probably cover it all up so smoothly that no one will ever suspect that any thing has happened in violation of any law. Its silly. We can send down several thousand school children who can count the cases in a short time and fell tfibse at the head of the government just how many are missing. Revenues in Indiana are just aver- ( age. We have less millionaires than the average state and less large in- i conies, according to the reports com- 1 piled by Prof. Edie of the Indiana University department of research, but we also have more people with , a comfortable income than most of the states. That’s not a bad condition ' for after all the happiest folk® are; 1 those who can enjoy the comforts of life without sufficient riches to make it a burden. The Fort Wayne News insinuates that the reason Bert Morgan was let oilt as prohibition agent for Indiana I was that Senator Watson knew about the disappearance of liquor from the state house. What a joke. How come Uncle Jim never mentioned sftch a violation of duty? Why is it that Morgan is now the one who tells (he story while those employed in the Service deny it? Who got the whis-, key? Just how much does the senior i senator know about it? While the dirty linen is being washed lets have it all laundried. A man may be down but never out, is an old saying and evidently true in the case of Walter McDaniels, a gunman, sent to prison in Wisconsin seven years ago for a term of twentyfive years for holding up a Milwaukee saloon. In prison he became a student and took several extension courses from the state university. He has patented forty-eight articles and several of them are so good that he has been offered a fortune for them. He will be released tomorrow and will nro’nably have no trouble landing a good job if be wants one. Ten merchants have rented space in the room for the, Spring Revue and Better Homes Exposition to be given here next month by the Industrial Association it plans now under way can be completed. It will be a fine

The enthusiastic support which is being given the proposition is appreciated and assures the success of the enterprise. Remarking that '‘solitude is the greatest medicine a man can take.” a former Princeton student who spent ten years as a hermit on a lonbly island in Chesapeake bay, with study for diversion, has rejoined human society. Taken in such a dose as that which he prescribed for himself, it would drive most people mad. In homeopathic, quantities. however, there is something to be said in its behalf. Solitude does more than anything else to develop the resources for entertainment that are to be found in one’s own mind. And the person with these resources developed has a happier time than one who Is dependent for entertainment on the society of other people. The latter is likely to be bored if forced by circumstances to spend any considerable period alone. On the other hand the self-contained person is usually a student, who finds everything around him worthy of study and only regrets that he does not have more time at his disposal for solitude and study. The student finds Iffe more interesting than the person who cannot bear solitude, and is*likely to make more valuable contribution to the welfare of the world. — Goshen Daily Democrat. _f) ' fiS • ** X TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY X X X X From the Daily Democrat File X X Twenty Years Ago This Day X X ■ March 27, 1906—-St. Mary's river is. on an old fashioned rampage, due to Ihe heavy rains of the past several days.

’*‘Cook Pork Well”, U. S. Expert Advises i Raw or improperly cooked pork and I 'pork products may cause the serious jand often fatal disease, trichrtosts. This , warning is issued by specialists of the , ! Bureau of Animtil Industry, United ' j States Department of Agriculture, es- , pecitilly to persons who are in the hale ( it of eating raw or insufficiently ecoked pork products, inducing sausage containing raw or dried pork meat and intended to be featan uncooked. Recent reports rbcMved from several I sources by the department indicate that a number of cases of illness and I ueaths hate resulted from tribhtnosis. • Th’ dbease, because of the similarity ' of the symptoms. Is oftbn tnisfeken for typhoid fever. Trichinosis is painful as well as dangerous, and often affects all members of a family who have eaten raw, poorly cured, or insufficiently cocked pork. The atlmetnt is Ta used by very minute parasites known als jtriebna?, but a temperature of 110 F. 'or higher renders the pork harmless. J| Followllig are simple rules of food hygiene indorsed by Federal specialists: Cook pork well. A practical rule is to cook pork until the meat has lost 1 s its red color throughout all portions, jor at least until the of the meal I have become more or less jellied. Fed-, J erally inspected pork products of i (. kind prepared customarily to be eaten ! without cooking are safe since t! e int. spectors require that all pork muscle j tissue entering into such inspected pr ducts be subjected to a temperap ture sufficient to destroy all live ttichij mt. e—- — Notice to Plaster Contractors Bids will lie received for plasters lug the inferior of the EHe restaurplant and groepty building. 418 Win{chaster street.

UNEMPLOYMENT BEING REDUCED Free Emnlovment Bureau Os State Saves Workers Large Sum Last Year Indianapolis, Ind., Mar. 27 —(United Press) —The free employment bureau . operated by the state of Indiana, during the last year saved the workers of the state approximately $11)0,000, according to Perry W. Reeves, head of the bureau. Reeves bases his estimates on prevailing rates charged by commercial cmploymefit biireaus, and took into consideration the time each anccessful applicant worked on the job obtained for him. According to Reeves’ figures, exactly $108,850 was saved during 1925. and he expressed the opinion that this sav. ing can be increased from year to year as employers continue to lend the state their cooperation in reducing unemployment When the state obtains work for an unemployed man it makes no charge for the service, Rewc.s said. Tiie .state, Reeves says, fee’.s that after a man has been out of work tor an extended period his family begins to suffer and he is in no position to pay i. large price for his job. “The first month of employment, following a period »f unemployment is file worst.” Reeves said, "because the debts have been accumulating.” In addition to his position <ff supervisor of employment for the state industrial board ii assistant director for the United States Department of ixibor Employment service. The work of these two organizations, it was said, are closely related. “The placing of 2,156,465 men and women in jobs during the last fiscal year emphasizes the wide use made of the public emplbyn.ent service and the necessity for such a service,” Reeves told the United Press. The progress of state employment bureaus was briefly outlined by Reeves who declared that following th eprecedent established by France, the state of Ohio in 1890, passed a law authorizing the creation of bureaus in five of the states principal cities. New York followed in 1096 and Illinois In 1809, with the other states taking up the work in rapid succession. I In a report covering the activity «.f the Indiana bureau during the last year, Reeves shows that positions have been obtained for 40,316 persons. Since the opening of the public cm-

p'oymeut office In Indianapolis last September, this department has placed > more than 2,000 persons in jobs rang- I ins from ordinary labor to liigh sac- | tory and office positrons. I It was explained that the federal j government aslst the state in its j placement, work and operates a sort of j national clearing house for labor. j As a result, men from one state quite frequently Sre seht to a neighboring state when labor is needed I?idly at the latter point. I The government also lends material financial aid to the .state bureaus which ’ in turn aid the municipal public cm- ' pioyuient bureaus. “Whether conducted by the city, 'state or federal government, the- findling of empSdythetit for men arid wo- . meh is a necessary public function,” • Reeves declared. “If it Is the duty of organized government to provide ' M-hools to educate governmental organizations to supply machinery where* | by its citizens may find suitable and I profitable work.” t
