Lee, general sales manager of Dodge Brothers, Inc. This record is practicularly notable when it is considered that Graham Brothers have gone into the lead in California over the two largest manufacturers of low priced trucks, Mr. Lee says. He added that Graham Brothers have enjoyed an excellent business throughout the year and especialy since the company’s recent announcement of its new line of trucks headed by a six cylinder two-ton model. Mr. Lee stated that California registrations of Graham Brothers trucks fn the first nine months of 1927 constituted 40 per cent of the total truck registrations in that state, exclusive of those of the two manufacturers of low priced trucks.

Pupils Hartford City, Ind., Nov. 12 (UP) A
cure has been found for the epidemic of stomach trouble which has been incapacitating hundreds of Hartford City children every Friday since the beginning of the fall ternt of school, County Attendance offeer T. A. Kegerreis announced today. Kegerreis explained that he had been investigating the cases of many students who, according to the excuses th?y present to their teachers, are confined to their beds every Friday with a "stomach ailment.” He declares that he is able to affect a permanent “cure” in almost every instance, and has the epidemic under control “although for a time”, he adds “there was more stomach trouble to the square inch in Hartford City than in ny other town of its size in the state.” Confidentially Kergerreis explained that his "doctoring” consisted of a jilear explanation of the truancy law, emphasis laid on the penalty clause to be enforced ou those who pershu in “playing hookej’”,. One ijtofessional visit usually affects a cure, he said. o U. S. Flier Sets New Airplane Speed Record Os 322 Miles Per Hour Mitchell Field, L. I.

AIRCRAFT ORDERS PUSH CHICAGO FIRM , Chicago, Nov. 7 (United Frew) Übusual activity iu aeronsutics has placed air craft manufacturers so far behind In orders that they are assured lot full-time operation during the win-j > ter, a rare condition. The E. M Laird Company has announced that for the first time in many years its plant instead of clos- | Ing down for the winter, is adding to Its man-power. The Yackey Aircraft Company of Maywood, a suburb, announced that [ it has enough orders ahead to keep i the plant working full-time during the winter. Each of these plants has been going i at top-speed during the year. These two companies built four of the first six airplanes to finish in the I Class A air derby from New York to Spokane, Wash., in September. Two Yackey airplanes finished in fifth and sixth place and two Laird machines took the first and second positions. E. M. Laird, president of the Laird Company said that interest in aviation is growing by'leaps and bounds. "I expect to put additional men to work during the winter”, he added '“lnquiries for ships, prices, and specifications reach us from all parts of the country every day. The outlook iu general certainly points to an optimistic future for aviation.” o Bovine Tuberculosis Rapidly Being Reduced Lafayette, Ind. Nov. 12 (INS) Bovine tuberculosis in Indiana will be reduc-1 ed to a minimum by 1930 if the present program is maintained, according to State Veterinarian F. H. Brown, speaking at a session of the Purdue university short course in veterinary work. Thirty-three counties in the state have taken up the fight against the disease and twelve others have expressed their willingness to aid. Brown said Sanitary control of, chicken diseases also is being practiced through the state, with profit to the poultry raisers according to Brown. o- -1 — TEACHING FIELD IS NOT CROWDED Bloomington, Ind., Nov. 12 —(INS) — The teaching field in Indiana and throughout the country is not crowded, and there are plenty of opportunities, according to a statement issued by Dr. H. L. Smith, dean of the school of education at Indiana university. Although there are 5,000 licensed teachers in the state who do not now Haw positions, most of them are mar■led, have entered business, or are otherwise engaged in pursuits which make teaching positions undesirable for them according to Dr. Smith. Students desiring to enroll in teaching courses will find ample room in the field, Dr. Smith said, because of a new ruling demanding a first grade icense, obtained through a four year education couse, for teachers in all high schools in the state. The number of students entering courses at Indiana university, wljich is in excess of previous years, was cited by Dr. Smith in support of the contention that teaching, as a profession, still proves attractive. o 13 Candidates Out For Bluffton H. S. Quintets Bluffton, Nov. 12—A total of fortythree candidates, four letter men of last season's squad, eight reserve men, ten high school league players, eight members of the Junior high school aggregation and thirteen tion-experienc-cd men, reported for the second basketball practice of the season, which was held in the Cherry street gymnasium Tuesday afternoon.

A. Allen high school in the hardwood sport throughout the winter months. Practice will start in the gym of the community building on East Market street within the next few days according to a statement furnished (jy Coach Means.

Here’s Latest Wrinkle In Swindles; i 1 Success Os Scheme Depends On Arrest
The latest wrinkle in swindling merchants has come to light recently In several cities in lhe midwesl and such a thing might happen in Decatur, tini less the merchant can figure out the scheme in advance. The swindler makes money out of suspicion he creates within the minds of the merchants with whom he has done business, and does nothing which he can be held criminally liable for, ; it is,s«id. The victimized merchant as 1 usual, holds the sack. At one city the man bought a new I automobile and tendered as payment a check upon a bank in another city. I After driving the car a short distance, i he took the machine to a used car mer. chant and offered it for sale at a big i discount, saying that he had bought . a "lemon.” The dealer bought the car, and after seeing that it was in good j condition informed the dealer in new. i cars. The original dealer then became sus-1 picious that the check was not good, ; and caused the arrest of the man who bought it. It was found that the check was good, and the arrested man filed < suit for damage for SMM),OOO. He settled out of court for $25,000. The same scheme, with variations, 1 has been worked at other places. The same man appeared at a hotel at Woodriver, 111., and after engaging a room asked the owner of the hotel to cash a check for SI,OOO drawn on a bank in another city, and told the hotel owner to wire the bank at his expense. The cheek was good, the bank wired back, and the man had an account of $50,000 The stranger then went to a jewelry store and bought a $2,000 diamond. He gave a check which was at first refused, but the jeweler was asked to call the hotel owner, who said it was good, and the check was accepted. The stranger then went to a nearby town and arranged to pawn the ring for sl,000, being careful to inform the pawn broker where the ring had been bought The lender informed the jeweler, and becoming suspicions of the check, the jeweler caused the arrest of the stranger. Another damage suit resulted, and is reported to have been settled out of
