Didn't have many flies this season but we hand it to those that did withstand the tain and the cold, sure can bite anti hang on. Arthur Gilliom has decitied that he* does not "choose to run" either for governor or United States senator next year. Just as well perhaps. The Yanks made it two in a row and now look like easy winners of the pennant and their victories so far have not been because of any sensational batting by Ruth and Gehrig. Well, whatever we may have to say about the early summer weather we can't complain much about the autumn so far. It has been wonderful and the farmers appreciate it for in many cases they are getting crops when they scarcely expected them. Sure lets every body plan to have a good time on Hallbw'een. When the celebration was put on two years ago the youngsters had so much fun they didn't care to go out and see how much property they could destroy and every body had a fine time. Why not? Os course so Jong as officials of the state sworn to enforce the 1 aws, violate them and give as an excuse that the laws are not as they should be, they will find it a very difficult matter to make others obey. Laws certainly are not made for only a part of the people but for all, no difference what position of honor they happen to hold. The times are not as good as some of the optimists predicted or as bad as many pessismists declared certain. Seems to be moving along just kind of so-so, with those wise enough to adver ise getting by in a very satisfactory manner but with those who don't seem to care not doing so well. It will get better we are sure but not so good that any one can show a profit worth while without going after it. George Remus, king of the bootleggers, put the finishing touch to a colorful life of sin yesterday when he shot and killed his wife, who following his conviction to prison several years ago filed suit for divorce. Remus bad been a modern sport, made a million from the illicit sale of liquor and lived in luxury at Cincinnati. Soaked with his poisoned “hooch" he committed murder and the rest of his days will be spent in prison if he escapes the electric chair, a sorry ending to a mis spent life. Another very great honor has come to Dore B. Erwin, well-known local attorney who for years has been active in the state lodge of the Knights of Pythias. He has been elected to a four year term as national delegate and in that position will attend the meetings of the order next year at Detroit and two years later. Mr. Erwin served as grand chancellor of the order for Indiana and was chairman of the building board which erected the Pythian home at Lafayette recently. Five men were chosen as delegates in the recent meeting and Mr. Erwin received tht highest number. —: ■ — The local Red Cross chapter wil make a * determined and organizer effort to increase their membership t<

No organization in this country is more necessary for the men and women who devote their efforts and their' very lives to this cause are always! £' handing out mercy. They are first in it the field of suffering whether is be r caused by fire, or flood or war or disease. They save many lives, they J make comfortable many victims of, 2 disaster, they take care of the needy. 0 They should have what they ask—- !_’ 1,00(1 members in Adams county. 5 0 ■“SH* 5 The wise men of the world predict !! that we are drifting to another world 0 - I war and they see as the big reason that certain Interests benefit when| wars are on. Seems terrible that mt n would be willing to make profits at , a game in which millions must risk their lives but more than one war has been brought about by selfish in- _ terests. The brave men who fought a in the last war wish no more wars, j not because they are afraid, but because they see the uselessness and the foolishness of it. To do this they advocate conscription of capital and i labor as well as men and they are ■ right about it for if no one made any profit from war it wouldn’t last long, perhaps never start. There is too much difference between the man who offers nis life and the one who sittK , at home and builds a business. Its . unfair and unjust. - —— o *¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥♦ * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * ************* Friday’s Five Best Radio Features Copyright 1927 by United Press All Central Standard Time | N. B.
