Fred Kepford, ninety-year-old Civil war veteran has married Sarah Crow, a seventy-two-year old lady. The young folks just will have their fling these days. We notice that most of those who are filing charges against Rev. Shumaker are those who would not get any votes he could control any way, which we presume is very natural. Statistics >how the negro population is decreasing iu Dixie, which probably accounts for the fact they can send a negro to congress from one of the Chicago districts. ’ ‘. A judge down in New Orleans has just decided that a smell of liquor coming from a house isn’t evidence , but we wonder what the man who is looking for a drink would thing about ( that. Vice-president Dawes has appointed a committee of five to investigate campaign expenditures of presidential candidates but we notice that neither Walsh or Reed are included. These gentlemen get a little too earnest in f such matters to suit some. Don’t forget after you have the 1 yard all cleaned and the debris haul- 1 ed away that a coat of paint adds ‘ about as much to the buildings as 1 any thing you can do and the cost is ‘ insignificant compared to the increase 1 in value and satisfaction. If you wish to hear Tom Adams take "the hide off the Coffin-Jackson-Schortemeier squad” as he puts It, lune in at nine o'clock tonight on j WLW. The Vincennes editor says he intends to shoot up hfc> opponents with both barrels. It is needless to tell the candidates that election day is near. Jl’licy know it and are working overtime to see the voters. Its you folks who will decide who sb,all be the nominees that should remember it and get busy. It is important that a large vote be cast in Indiana this year to show the world that we intend to clean up. While the vote cast in California was two to one favorable to the republican party it should be remembered that Mr. Hoover claims that! state as his home when be is in this country and that’the democratic vote was much larger than usual. There was nothing about discourage democrats. The German-Irish crew will attempt ■to fly back across the Atlantic when they return home, thus being the finft to accomplish a’round trip. The boys have received a wonderful reception in this country, and if they succeed in flyim home, will be as busy over there the next year as Colonel Lindbergh hau been in this country. Tenth street is to be resurfaced with natural rock asphalt, improving that thoroughfare and adding to the value of properties located thereon. The only street in the city thus covered is Winchester street from Adams to the Cloverleaf railroad and it is smeotlier now than when put on last summer. It is believed it will prove durable and iu every way satisfactory and if it docs there is a prob-

abilily that many sti’i’Sfe in the t Ity will eventually be mo rebuilt. Anyway the indications are that the campaign this year is to be a real one with plenty of enthusiasm and earnestness. Political writers predict there 'will be more red fire and torches than have been seen in thirty years. Thats no doubt tnie »o we may as well get reaify for it. A few months ago it looked as thoifch it would be a one-sided affair but not now. C—'WTWgB ‘■BSS.ggB While it has been admitted by experts that "bats" would prove excellent eradicators of the corn borer, the suggestion l»s been ttlfned down for the very good reason that there are not. enough bats. The average farmer would just about as leave have the corn borer to bother with as to have to be dodging bats all the time and besides the women folks would object for there is an ol dbelief that the pesky flying mice carry bed bugs. Congressman Rathbone has introduced a bill for the creation of a committee to investigate the needs of an additional east and "west highway extending from coast to cotst. In the near future the government will construct several real trans-con-tinental roads and it would be fine to be upon one of these. Why not get in touch with this gentleman ami see if we cannot sell him a route through this county? Its a big task of course but one well worth doing for their will be no doubt about the merit of being on such such a highway. Besides the benefits to be derived from building such a road the I continual traffic sure to follow makes it a worth while thing to go after. Senator Borah in an able speech at Chicago the other day declared that corruption will be and should be one of the chief issues of the coming campaign and one by which the republican party's fate at the polls will be spelled. Concluding an address entirely upon the efforts being made to "cover up’ he said’. “You will hear it said in these days that democracy as a form of government is breaking down —that upon the complicated .question of modern industrial life the people cannot successfully pass. Me. need not debate that question now. Hut make no -mistake tnat upon the great questions which involve national honor and public decency the people have an interest that is insatiable and an instinct that is sure.'' o *¥«¥¥¥*l**¥¥¥»* * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO ‘ * J4¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥X THURSDAY'3 FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES WJZ Hookup 7 pm.
