Its the best spot, after all. The stocks are large and well selected and the merchants are reliable. Its not only the cheapest but the safest and best. There should be no more of this "slick and underhanded’’ polities in Adams county. Its unfair and it certainly is not the best for the people. Its about time to say so. Just about the time you think you can operate an automobile with one hand, can drive it under a lucky star which prevents you having an accident, don't need to be carefull any more, you bump into something which takes it out of your mind. It is announced fronl Washington where they employ an army of static-' ticians of one kind and another, that every rat a farmer lets live, costs him two dollars. Why not get up a rat hunt? If thats the cost of keeping them it would be worth something to' be rid of them. Mis. Ferd Peoples was regularly elected county truant officer and is both qualified and deserving. * Just why or what the effort to unseat Jii’i is, cannot be fully understood hot if, it keeps up, the truth will probably come out one of these days with a jolt. Governor pan Moody, of Texas, thinks he is doing big things by liv- « ing on $77 a week, supporting his' wite and one dog. Dan is not quali-j fied to do any boasting. Thousands •. are living on a fourth of this amount! and supporting a wife, a half dozen I children and an automobile. — Hart- j ford City News. A boom has been started for Dr. J.’ W. Mayo, famous Rochester, Minnesota, surgeon, for president of the United States. There are a lot of serious operations in both our state and national organizations that ought to be made and if it requires the services of so great a surgeon, we perhaps ought to employ him. Join the Red Cross, place your name on the Roll. The Lion's club of this city are sponsering the movement in the north half of the county. They deserve and will appreciate your sup-' port and the best way to give that is to join and then see that all the family and every one else you knowdoes likewise. Adams county is in the very center t of the garden spot of America. Wo' have real soil here, thousands of acres of it black with a clay subsoil. It is just as sure to be more valuable than you can buy it for now as this nation is sure to go on and prosper. 1 These farms must feed the nation. If you are wise and want to invest safely, buy an Adams county farm. If the democrats were In control of the government you would th reading now that the low prices on farm lands was due to free trade or mismanagement, but since they can’t use that alibi they are trying to convince the farmer he doesn’t know his own business and doesn't deserve to x in - And what seems the funniest is they continue to put it over in every campaign that comes along. * Don’t get it into your head that because the police have not been bringing people up each day, they are not

•on the watch for those who violate ' the traffic laws. Truth is most every ' one has been doing a pretty good job lof stopping and otherwise following the provisions of the ordinances, lately, but we have an inside tip that we 1 are passing on to you, that most any time now, another drive is to be made. Seems like its necessary every so often. * The granting of permission to the • telephone company to extend their I I cables over the city brings to mind i the time will come some day when II ! no overhead cables will be permitted, even in places the size of Hartford City. The telephone companies will in a few years have sufficient funds, or should have at the present rates, to mteet such Improvements. While underground cables would cost a lot of money, in the course of years if would prove a good investment, as there would be little to fear from ■ high winds, sleet and ice.—Hartford City News. You're way behind the times. Ed, we’re doing it in Deatur right now. President Coolidge reaffirms his position that he is not a candidate and he should not be. If we might be permitted to express an opiuion which we realize does not materially effect the situation. We cannot but believe that eleven years in that office is a tlangerous precedent and one that in the years to come would be sincerely •and deeply regretted. Twenty years ago President'Roosevelt, who perhaps enjoyed being president more than any one who ever held the job, declarj cd when importuned as frequently as has President Coolidge been to run again, that he did not believe the eight-year precedent had been estab(lished just to use words but because it fixed in actual figures the limit of i service and that no one should accept the office for a longer period than I that. Mr. Bryan said that four years , was long enough for a good president | and too long for a poor one. ¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥*’ * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * H ¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥♦¥ II!
