With the Queen of Roumania gone and the Hall-Mills case out of the way, Santa Claus may have a chauce to get a little first page notice ■ Doheny says that JIOO.OOO so much talked about in the little black bag was a “mere bagatelle." Just so, but most of us would like to have just bne of the bagatelles. Only twenty-one shopping days left before Christmas. You just have time in which to shop early. Your visits to the stores properly timed now will enable you to get your gifts without the vexations which comes with the last rush. They thought Willie Stevens was a “nut" and would furnish big headlines when he got on the stand in the i famous Hall-Mills murder case and he | did. He proved to he smarter than ‘ the prosecutor and made him look like a “boob" as well as a number of others in the court room. You just never can tell by a mau's looks. While we very much regret the departure from this city of Rev. B. N. Covert and his splendid family, we are glad with them for their successThe church to which he goes in South Bend is pne of the best in the state and they are to receive one of the finest younger pastors of Indiana. We congratulate both. We are sincerely hoping for the speedy recovery to complete health, of that sterling citizen of Decatur. ■ Charles N. Christen, now a patient, with a very serious disease in a Fort, Wayne hospital. Mr. Christen has served this community as mayor and i part in every community enterprise I auu is one of the valued men of tins city. Arthur R. Gould, republican, was yesterday elected United States senator from Maine after a spirited fight in which there were charges of graft, heavy expenditures, Ku Klux Klan' and various others which usually come up in such a fight. The important part of it is that this election gives the republicans a majority of one in the senate and will permit them to organize. It also gives that party the responsibility of making good. The Good Fellow’s Club which for years has brought joy and happiness find comfort to dozens of youngsters and to people who would otherwise

not have a Merry Christmas, is again being supported by the Delta Theta Tau Sorority who are asking your assistance. All organizations are asked to join with them that the greatest good can be accomplished. Its a fine cause, splendidly handled by these young ladies and is deserving of your aid. Don't wait. Start them oil with a nice contribution. More than a hundred thousand people witnessed the Army-Navy football game at Chicago last Saturday, paying from three to three hundred dollars for seats. More than a million dollars were spent for admission alone and of course several times that was necessary to get them there and keep them in the hotels. After which there is no need talking about times being very hard. So long as we can spend money for sports and pleasure as we have tile past year, at least

I some of the folks are finding It com- ' puratively easy to get hold of the "Jack.". Would you give a few minutes a day if you knew you could add ten or fifteen or twenty years to your life? t It Is so claimed by tnapy who have tried it. The late "Uncle Joe" Cannon, never a robust man, added forty years to his life by daily exercises. ; For half a century he took long walks ' ami each day engaged in regular bending exercises. A half hour before he died he sat up in bed and went through his arm exercises. The doctors said there was not an unsound organ in his body and that he had lived until he just wore out and the body ceased to function. John D. Rockefeller takes his daily dozen regularly and so do thousands of men w-ho have lived on borrowed time for a score of years. Is long life, a hale

, and hearty old age worth the price of a few minutes of exercise a day? you answer. It doesn't cost anything. I George Dale, editor of the Muncie rost-Democrat, who has put up a continuous fight against the klan and against corruption in Delaware county public offices, who has been arrested numerous times, assaulted and shot and sentenced and re-sentenced, has decided to give up the fight. He has .announced his desire to sell his paper and to move as far from Muncie as he can get. He has a wife and seven children and says while he is willing to take punishment himself he does not care to proceed when attacks are made against his family. Recently some one shot through the window at his home and the bullet just missed one of his daughters. Dale has a Jicase in the supreme court of the | United States and is to go on trial ’again at Muncie Friday of this week. iHe has certainly had a stormy career. Governor Jackson has paroled one Henry Descamps, who killed his wife fifteen years ago and has done so without the recommendation of the pardon board. Os course he has that power and the parole is legal. "Ma” Ferguson has used similar authority to an alarming degree in Texas. That doesn't make it right. Governor Jackson became well acquainted with Descamps when the later served as his cook on a vacation in the Dunes country the past summer He seems ’ to have promised the prisoner a rei lease as a reward for good service during that time, but that does not, it seems to us, warrant such a gift and particularly so after the pardon board has refused to admit of the : ■ i.I ' -■ ! murderer who slew his wife. He ! should not be turned at large. The society of the state also have some rights to be considered. ++♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ + OF RADIO ♦ + BIG FEATURES ♦ +++++++♦+++++♦++ WEDNESDAY'S RADIO FEATURES (Copyright 1926 by United Press) Central Standard Time Throughout. , WEAF—New York (492) and WCAE Pittsburgh (461)—9:30 p. m.— Gilbert and Sullivan's "Trial by Jury.” WJZ—New York (454) 8 p. nt. —Denny’s orchestra, Virginia Rea. soprano, Frank Munn, tenor.
