The folks won't be half as much interested in where the president is as where Captain Lindbergh is and what he is doing. Hang out the flags tomorrow and next day. The occasion is important enough that a two day observation is important and the public will attend both of them. Paris wants to adop; Charley Lindbergh but it won’t do. They haven't work a lick since he’s been there and besides we need a little of the same tonic .in this country which he has evidently given to France. If ifenry Ford's new car proves as popular as the old one it will keep his big plant going for some years. The fifteenth millionth car was turned out yesterday and these have been sold at a total of about seven billion dollars. During its eighty years in business, the Pennsylvania Railroad company has paid out a total of $831,000,000 in cash dividends besides ten stock dividends. They have never missed a year in returning earnings to the owners and now pay one and three quarters per cent quarterly. There seems to be plenty of evidence that King Ben and his cult were not in business for any good purpose and the sooner they break it up and clean house, the better it will be for every one excepting those business men of that section who profited by the visits from curiosity seekers. The conditions in the flood district of the southwest do not improve, but on the contrary grow worse. It has continued so long that we are getting used to it but nevertheless there is need there for much assistance. Since the government evidently does not seem inclined to take care of the situation we will have to do it some other way. The Huntington Press is "poking" fun at us because they say we have put on an extensive drive to secure SSOO for an athletic field and declare that if the crowds which attend the games are as slow as they are in subscribing to the fund we won’t break any world records. Perhaps not but when the plans are all worked out and we have a real field for sports, (he Press and all others who now deem it a joke will have a different idea. While diplomatic relations between England and Russia have been severed, Premier Baldwin makes it plain that his nation does not desire or expect a development of war. They feel they can sever relations as between governments and retain trade relations which seems doubtful. England docs not want a war fer the recent one is still too fresh in the minds c! most of them to create much enthusiasm along that line and the

J same feeling exists In about every f civilized country. Presenting Senator Thurman Gottschalk to the Roturiuus, Mr. John r Fisher, acting chairman, predicted r. that in return for the many favors the 1 senator has given the people of Indir, ana by his years of service, they would some day make him governor, a suggestion which is being frequent2 ly made uud which would prove a a very splendid way of redeeming Indi--5 ana. Thurman Gottschalk Is able 5 and square and has friends in every ) county in the state who would sup- ’ port him. not only during the campaign but during his administration. , In a few years the present dollar bills, also the fives and tens and twenties will look peculiar. Secretary Mellon has ordered new plates and . the money in use after a year or so will be one-third of an inch shorter and three quarters of an inch narrower, making them more convenient for carrying, though most of us have not been troubled so very much in finding room for all of the present size we could gather up. The new size will save the government two million dollars a year in cost of I paper. Tomorrow and next day we will pay honor and tribute to those men who have offered their lives in defense of the country. It is one of the holidays of the year which should mean most. In this occasion we should make every effort to inspire in the hearts of the young folks, reverence for those who have thus sacrificed and patriotism and love of country. The ranks of those who wore the blue during the stirring days of til to ’65 have grown thin, there are missing also many from the roster of the Spanish-American war and it now rests upon the shoulders of the brave lads who were in the service in the late World war, to carry on. They will take a large part in the services this year and they ask the support of every one interested. They will observe the occasion tomorrow and

Marriage Harder Than 1 A Job; Young Denver ‘ Bride Commits Suicide 1 Deliver, Colof'Mu? 28 — (United Press)—ll women "would use us much ' effort towaid making matrimony a success as they do to k<yp their jobs. ■ they would find themselves more happily married. "Mrs. Margaret Taub, ' one of Denver’s best known insurance agents, believes. Her comment was occasioned by the suicide of Mis. Beatrice Bhowning, young wife of a paper hanger. Near Mrs. Browning's body was found a clipping wTlh the following quotation: "The gill who gives up a good job to get married, nine times out of 10 has to work twice as hard, and gets no appreciation for what she does." “So many women." Mrs. Taub said, "think that when they get married, they are going to be cared for the rest of their lives without any effort at all ell their part. "But life is difficult no matter what | wo do, and anyone who gits married must realize that that too demands a certain amount of sacrifice and effort.” Mrs. Fied Dick, pioneer Denver club woman, agrees with Mrs. Taub. "I believe in marriage," she said, "and 1 believe in marrying young. If a girl loves a man enough, she can overcome the difficulties and the troubles that come at first with financial affairs. "Girls who marry young and whose husbands are not substantially fixed financially must be willing to give up a lot that many girls aren't willing to give up nowadays."
