We haven't heard of the president catching anything for a day or two. As the reports come in that the wheat is turning out the best in years, the price steadily declines. ’Twas ever thus. Wo never realized until the last day or two what a ten degree drop In temperature meant. From ninetyfive to eighty-five is a whiz of a fall. Over sixteen thousand bills were, introduced during the last session of congress. Just think what might have happened to you it they had passed them all. All the talk about, the republicans paying off the state debt might have a greater effect if every time we buy a gallon of gas we were not reminded that we are paying the debt instead of any political party. Don't rush, don't jam. don’t get excited, they have discovered gold in the Ridgeville stone quarries — but not in paying quantities, and the owners will continue to sell it for use in road paving. An Ohio man spent several days tuning up his car with the boast to friends that he intended to make it go down the road at seventy miles an hour. He won. The funeral was yesterday. The July number of the Hoosier Motorist magazine contains a feature story of IJmberlost Trail and the desire of the automobile association to make ft the Ideal highway of Indiana. mww- *"• <%***'*• ♦ years coming and will be a popalui' drive for thousands of motorists. The Loa Angeles grand jury which investigated Almee’s escapade has adjourned without filing a report, being unable to decide the why and whereof of her abduction or whether or not any such thing happened. Good. Now we can all have our own opinion without fear of successful contradiction. The heat wave which has let up for a day or two but threatens to come back strong by Sunday has already claimed more than a hundred lives. The high temperature continued unabated in the east yesterday though 1 in this section the drop was a very decided relief. There is nothing to do but "grin and bear it" but we can be carefill about what we eat and what we do. A corn and dairy day or week in this city would prove the most popular event of Its kind ever given here if put on right and if enough people will display an interest it can be done. Pep up if you want it and why not want It. Such an event will not cost a lot of money, will attract large crowds, will provide clean and splendid amusement and entertainment and will be a great harvest celebration. TVe ought to.

We are securing » C halt dozen members a day but we wish you would speed up just a little so we can close the campaign Over a hundred business men of '• Randolph county have been arre tied j on warrants charging violations of the laws against operating on Suu- ’ day. The affidavits were filed by Farmland men and it is said result- , ed because the authorities bad stopl ped the Sernan dance hall front doing • business on Sunday. The proprietor of a Winchester restaurant was the ’ first man to be tried there, appearing J before Mayor Ross to face the very serious charge of having sold a nickel cigar on the Sabbath day. Ho was promptly acquitted. These "blue law" affairs often become serious land are always foolish. France is talking war against the I'nited States, England is grumbling and seems none too friendly and all because this nation refuses to forget the financial debt they owe us. It seems foolish over here and would lover there it they had practised thrift and started in to lick their war debt. If you owed some body a sum of money would you expect to go to them and tell them that unless they destroyed the note you would be mad and might attempt to lick ’em? What's the difference whether its one person or several million? However, we are not greatly alarmed that either France or England will start any thing very serious. The terrible results of the last war is still fresh -in their minds and financing another one at this time would seem next to impossible. IThey won’t fight whether they feel Hike it or not. — o—- • Big Features Os * • RADIO • SATURDAY’s’FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES Copyright. 1926. by United Press Central standard time throughout A\ JX—New York. 454 M: WRC, Wash iqgtou, 469 M; WGY, Schenectady, 380 M. 6:25 p. m.— New Yorw Philharmonic orchestra.
