The rumor that Dempsey has quit fighting on advice from physicians may not mean much to you but it sure does to Tex Rickard fdr Jack has been his "best seller" for several years. Have you got a 192 S automobile license? Times up and from now on those who attempt to drive with the old plates on are subjecting them selves to arrest. The state police force will be after you and it will be very unwise and unprofitable to try it. "Hickman is crumbling," says a dispatch from Los Angeles. We don’t know just what that means but its a shame something like it didn’t happen before he committed his terrible crime, the murder of little Mariam Parker. Local politics is beginning to warm and each day now we hear talk of new candidates. Its a fair and open field for everybody. Get in and fight, fair. A lively primary fairly conducted arouses interest and iasm and is never a bad thing for the party. A Mrs. Frank Henderson of Oklahoma, said the other day and in a serious article, that it requires fifty thousand dollars a year for a woman to dress fairly well. Maybe, but theres a lot of women that are not going to bo half dressed If thats the case. Can you list the ten biggest industries in the United States in their order? Here they are: automobiles, meat packing, steel, petroleum, refining, foundry and machine production, printing and publishing, cotton goods, electrical machinery, motor bodies and parts, lumber and timber products. Do we want an Old Home Week badly enough to support it financially as well as otherwise? Thats a very important question. If those away from here axe willing to spend a lot of money to come home, we ought to be glad to spend a little to make them bapft- and to let them know how glad we are that they still want to call this* home. By the way, we wish some one would write John D. Williams, of the State highway commission and ask him whatever became of his expressed intentions to take over the cast and west road from the state line to Huntington, through this’city. We ate getting worried thad John has lost th» data which he had for a couple of years on this road J. Kirby Risk of Lafayette, denies that he charged in his speech to the Anti-Saloon league last week that the "Inchaim Courts arc persecuting the league,” Kirby is certainly too wise to this butt against the already tender feelings of the courts and Mr. Gillioiu. It lie was misquoted that fact tehould be made known from ‘he samo sources from which the original newt: came. "l'!2L Jimmy Walker has quit drinking intoxicants of any kind, but the popular New York mayor is not claimin': apy great credit for it. He has also

stopped eating any and every thing and is takluk care of his health oi the advice of his physicians. He be gun to diet last September und ad mlts he Is feeling much better ever) r. way. After all thats the best nrgu r ( taunt against drinking or oYlr eating Its Injurious. r, " j It doesn't hardly seem fair but thr I president of the United States doesn't 2 have to pay income tax dnd a lot of 0 other things to which common mor tals are held. He even is exempt 5 I) from the two cents per gallbn gas tax 5 in the District of Columbia and since J* the White House has eight cars, four of which are used b)< Mr. and Mrs. Coolidge, two by secret service men and two «trueks by any one about the place who needs them, the savings amount to some three hundred dol- ' lars per year. s _. Now they are trying every moans to oust L. Ert Slack as mayor of Indianapolis. Slack is a democrat and was elected by a republican coun- • di to fill out the term of John Duvall 1 who had been forced out by a court s verdict. When the councilmen who t made Slack mayor found they couldn't t "lead him around by the nose” they I decided that they could unmake him I just as they had made him. ‘That probably is for the courts to determine . hut in the meantime Indianapolis has j her ill-smelling mess on her hands. . And its nearly two years before they Jean get out of it by means of the , manager plan. s Colonel Lindbergh may be nervous and ill and on the verge of a break i down but he still has plenty of nerve ;*and certainly does know how to t handle an airplane. On his way to I Venezuela he bumped into a fog, got I off the track, found the coast line and - followed it until he reached his destination after one of the most perilous drives he has ever made... Don't know 1 what you think about it but we have t conic to the conclusion that Lindy's 1 successful Hip to Paris was not an 'accident. That boy just knows his •. stuff. - .
