Twenty-one coast guard ships have been ordered to Detroit to reinforce the runt patrol against a "threatened Hood of Canadian liquor." Good, as far as it goes, but It will also take a million soldiers to stand guard all along the Canadian bonier, automobiles to catch the racing cars and airplanes to head them off in the air. Farmers who did clean up-work last fall in good faith on the promises made by representatives of the government now find they will not be paid. No wonder they do not get excited over any promises from that source. It seems the ten million dollars appropriated to drive out the corn borer all went to the overhead of getting the youngsters to run around and give promises. Five bandits held up the/ bank at Howe yesterday and escaped with three thousand dollars, a fair dajs 'work from their viewpoint, we presume but some idea of how careless they are is disclosed from the fact that they overlooked $4,000 cash which was just inside the haps however its a little RrlTWi boast for they may hear of it and ' return to make it a clean sweep. . A fifteen-year-old boy is Under arrest at Fort Wayne for bootlegging and rum running but as might be expected a thirty-eight-ycar old man was arrested with the boy. There is every probability that the older man was using the boy knowing he could get by when others couldn’t. The man should be given the limit and the boy sent to a place where he will have training at least until he is twentyone. Henator Watson will speak at Fort Wayne next Monday evening. Jim is a great orator and he will warm the boys up without saying miEch. If he would take off his coat, roll up his sleeves and tell what he knows about political conditions in Indiana and what ought to be done about cleaning house, the voters would have more faith in him. but he won'*. He will fight it out on the o.(d course, his party right or wrong, but his party. The campaign is warming up and the next week will bring the primaries to a hot finish. During the past few days a half dozen representatives of various candidates, some of the candidates themselves aud at least one man from the national republican headquarters have visited this county. There is a big drive, on now for votes and it begins to I3hk as though there is a chance for a record breaking vote in this year's primary. You have but a day or two in which | to get the yard cleaned and the cans | and debris, placed in boxes aud barrels in the alley. The city trucks will be out next Monday nioruiug bright and early and you should be ready for thorn. Remember the cinders, limbs of trees and other rubbish must be hauled away or disposed of by the property owner. Its fine that the city devotes a week to this annual cleanup ami we should aid them every way we can. ■ - -■ The directors of the Indiana Farm Bureau at thoir quarterly meeting

April 3rd. adopted a resolution ask-1 Ing all voters In the state to go to the polls May Sth and register thoir choice for caudldptea for county,, state aud national offices. The* bureau declares tbe primary election | Is In jeopardy because enough do not use .it and thats right. Less than oneeighth of the vote took the advantage i of the primaries in Ohio last Tues ' day.

It was a mean , trick “Daddy” Showalter’s children I played him at Ids home at Wabash. > [They got tired of seeing 'Daddy" drive an old, dilapidated automobile that threatened to fail to pieces, so one day when he had it hitched to a public rack and had gone away and ! left It in the cold, they run it to the I junk yard ahd substituted a brand , new machine. In it was a placard: "This is your seventieth birthday, time for a new macMne. Your luv-. Ing children." Every parent would' be proud of children like these, even j it they did give Jon a shock at first until you learned that the “old boat" had not been stolen. —Hartford City News. The conviction of Clyde Walb,! former republican state chairman and ; Valentine Weaver, president of the i LaGrange National bank for conspiracy to violate the federal banking | laws does not surprise those who have heard or read the evidence or were in close touch with the situation. The | acts of these men were at all times i dangerous for their community and regardless of their position in Society it was but right that they pay the penalty for their wrong doings. Mr. Walb until recently a leader of i men with great power, must serve a term of four years and Mr. Weaver, long respected and looked up to in county has been sentenced ■ to two and a half years in prison. The jurors have performed au unpleasant duly but one which should prove helpful in restoring Indiana to , a sane basis. o— — **»**¥*•♦***♦ * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * X¥¥¥¥¥*¥**** k SATURDAY'S FIVE BEST-. radio features: WJZ— hookup 7 pm.
