Most folks are glad of it and would welcome a change in he aws which provided fewer elections. However, there will be plenty of politics with the legislatures in session and a dozen fel)ws trying to “bust” into the White House in 1928. ****** The coming legislature will spend something like $65,000,000 .ccording to present plans, an increase of about $11,000,000 and hen next year the loud speakers will be telling us about the conomy of the Jackson administration. Beat it if you can and he joke is that the voters let them put it over year after year. ****** Senator Nejdl will reintroduce his old age pension and make fight for it. Os course it would be splendid if every one were issured of a pension at a certain age and under certain conditions f there was some way to raise the money without increasing the axes, but unfortunately there is now way to raise such funds but jy paying it in. ' John D. Rockefeller, aged four score years and some, made hole in three on his Florida golf course the other day and as I he par was five, the old man stood in the rain and cried for joy, irst sign of senility. Time was when he could make a lot of ’em n one in the business world, and did, and in those days the other z ellow usually did the crying. ****** Oh pshaw, Henry Freund, director of the Americai;, Research • '■’oundation has discovered that Indiana children nine hundred ears ago had the same tooth effects that is now attributed to andy eating by our children. He says candy contains nothing vhich can penetrate the enamel of teeth and injury is oftener > aused by rough foods, cracking hickory nuts and in other ways. —\r.d ihesc facts don’t interest us as much as would an explanation of what they did in those days when they got a good old "ashioned case pf jumping tooth ache.

Take yesterday's worries and sort lhem all out And you'll wonder whatever you worried about. Look back at the cares which once furrowed your brow, I fancy you’ll smile at the most of them now, They seemed terrible them, but they really were not. For once out of the. woods all the fears are forgot. Look over the list of the blunders you’ve made. The debts you’ve accrued and eventually paid. They frightened you once, and you thought at the time. That out of the valley you never would climb. But you did and you’re living and still going strong In spile of the troubles which happened along.

THE WORRIER

You can laugh at the journey when you have arrived, You can smile at the dangers which you have survived, What matter the doubts which have fretted your soul, Or the distance you've traveled, once you're at yeur goal? So just keep on going, through thick and through thin. Once you're out of the woods you will look back and grin. But I'm for the worrier! I'm for the man Who when he's in trouble does all that b e can. I'm for the fellow who puts up a fight To straighten things out and to make them go right. And I say for his comfort, when matters seem bad, Tomorrow- he'll smile at the troubles he’s had.
