Your license plates ou your automobile should read 1928, today. Do they? We think of alrplauing as a dangerous thing, but yet statistics show that more people were kicked to death by mules in the United States than lost their lives in planes. if you are driving your car without the 192 S license plates ou you are headed for the police court and the tine will probably bo more than the new plates. Its a foolish tiling to be careleßS about. We will spend six hundred and fifty million dollars this year for national defense, a lot of cost foi l peace times, really a silly amount it i would seem, unless the powers that I be know something wo don't hear of i out In the nilddlewest. The democratic national committee has issued the official call for the big convention which is to bo held in the city of Houston, Texas, beginning Tuesday, June 26th at twelve; o’clock, noon. Indiana will Tihrel thirty of the eleven hundred votes in .tho convention • - If Jack Dempsey refuses to fight this yoar, Tex Rickard might dato up Senator Heflin. A lot of people would i like to see Tunney have about, ten j .three-minute rounds with that gentle-' man who seems to deliver his best licks via the radio. President Coolidge had eight democratic senators to a bhekwheat cak' • and sausage breakfast yesterday ,’morning but we notice that the list 'did not include Mr. Heflin. That ‘gentleman lias succeeded in ostraciz ‘ing himself from about every kind of an assemblage. Be careful of the roads. Ybu may • t ,be tired of reading that, but for the ‘.next three months its about as important a thing as you can remember 'By doing so you will save a lot of t money for the county and that moaiis •something to you because as a citation you must pay something to keep th ■ highways in repair. Wo would not attempt to say who is mayor of Indianapolis but we wonder wdiat any one wants with the job if he is to be voted in and out at the pleasure of a council which evi- • dently doesn't care anything about the welfare of the city, present, or future. They certainly are succeeding in fixing things so that no one can do much with the city Severnmeat down than . Ttiats what conies of electing men who do not havb Huproper vision to office. It seems unfair to say there is no' difference whether democrats or republicans arc in power in Indiana w-hen the records tor the past sixteofi years arc taken into consideration. In lifts, Thomas It. Mar aha 11. democrat, was elected governor. Look his recorsl over. In 1912 lie was elected vicevpresMent of the Baited Stater. .Thai year Samuel M. Ralston, democrat, was elected governor. Look his recjord over. In 1022 tie was elected United States senator. In 1020, Warren McCray was elected governor

Look his record over. His term was flnished by Emmett Branch. Look his record over. In 192-1, Ed Jackson was elected governor. Look his record over. Can you imagine any ol ■ the three last governors being elevab ■ od to a national office? During the eight years tho democrat* were in - power in Indiana, not a single charge of mismanagement or misuse of funds was even charged. Do you thiuk it fair to say, "it makes uo difference?” Surely these records are worth considering when you got ready to select i state officials next November. John E. Frederick, Kokomo mauu-. facturer and a leading democrat of tho state, has added his name to the list of candidates for the democratic nomination for governor. It is claimed he has the solid support of the ninth district where ho lives. Mr. Frederick was a candidate for the nomination for United States senator two years ago. Ho has served as president of the Indiana Chamber of Commerce for seven years and is a high grade gentleman in every respect. Those who evade or attempt to evade payment of taxes do not cheat flit- government, every citizen being a part of the government, but are stealing from all who pay their taxes. The government must have so much revenue and those who fail to pay their share aro only increasing the tax burdona of better citizens. It is estimated by the treasury department at Washington that ono of every twenty-two citizens is a tax dodger. This means that millions aro shirking some portion of their duties as citizens, although all enjoy 'their full share of the benefits of citizenship. There might be less tax evasion if I more people looked upon payment of it axes as a civic duty rather than as i.i penalty of citizenship- I’robably most tax dodgers believe they are withholding from extravagant governments and gouging politicians rather than heaping new burdens on fellow citizens. When citizens withhold taxes from tho government they not only rob it of tho amount of the tax i but increase government expenditures by necessitating employment of delinquent tax collectors. The services of thousands of collectors and in vestigators could be dispensed with if every citizen paid his taxes voluntarily when they become due. —New- | castle Courier. o ******<!»****** * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * i :*********** f Wednesday's Five Best Radio Features Copyright 1928 by UP.

It Rheumatism and Backache Ended Could Hardly Walk, But Found How to End Trouble. Any person who knows what tortures rheumatism and kidney trouble can inflict will rejoice with Mr. A. L. Hunri, 320 N. Oak St., Kendallville, Ind., in his recent rapid recovery of health. He states: “I suffered agony with rheumatism and back-ache for eight long years. The pains were so sharp I had to drive to and from my work at the McCray factory, and often my limbs would draw and cramp me so that I had to be carried to bed. I was sore all over, and no one knows what torture I endured. My kidneys were so bad I had terrible back-aches and had to get up several times a night, for years. 1 was weak, nervous, sleepless, and all worn out with suffering But today things are different. The change began tho day I started taking Viuna. After taking only two bottles, my rheumatism was so much relieved that I could walk to work. I kept on with Viuna and now all the soreness and stiffness arc entirely gone, for the first time in eight years. My back has stopped aching, my kidneys are stronger and my sleep is not disturbed any more. The weak, dizzy, nervous, feelings have gone, too, and my general ijealth is better now than for many years. I tried so many remedies without relief, that I know Viuna is truly a wonder medicine. It did me a world of good.” Viuna acts promptly on sluggish bowels, lazy Uv»r mid weak kidneys. It purifies H,«- hit,oil, clears the skin, restores apwtite and digest,i«n.and brings new strength and energy to the whole body. Take a l-ottle o I trial. Then if you're not glad vou tried Viuna, your money will be refunded. $1 at druggists or mailed postpaid by Iceland Medicine Co., Indiana poll*, Ind VIUNA The Wonder Medicine Sold By CALLOW & KOHXK

Preston, who ega ducts the Boston Employment Agency at 56 Melrose St., Boston, luw proved tho value of FATHER JOHN'S MEDICINE, no* only in her own home but in dealing with many of those who come to h*r lor help and guidance. No praise cunld be stronger than her own letter, which is In part as follows: “For eighteen years I have ownsO and managed an employment agency in Boston and many thousands have applied to me for positions. Some of these aro in poor physical conditio" either through neglected colds or being generally run down as a rosu't of laborious work or worry or serious illness.
