Keep the cutouts closed on your automobile or motorcycle. Its a violation of the laws to see how much noise you can make. Tlie way to avoid arrest for violations of motor vehicle laws is easy—obey the laws. Thats the safest all around and much the cheapest. Evidently the fish up in Wisconsin have no respect for the president for they don't seem a bit more anxious to bite for him than they do for any other dry fly caster. Along with the other bargains for this season you can get your automobile license, good for the balance pf the year, for half price after August first. There are several public places about the city that ought to be cleaned up before Old Home Week. Why , wait? Do it now and let the home ( folks enjoy the attractiveness that , would mean, a, few weeks in advance. ( Weeds are being cut on a half dozen vacant lots in the city and the cost will be charged against the propertied as taxes. Certainly no one can com . plain that due warning was not given. There will be Limberlost and school I day. farm, fraternal and Industrial days during Old Home Week here. The committees for each are at work I righ now, trying to make their day the biggest and best. Thats what will make every day a big one. We re picking Tunney to win tonight's scrap, provided he doesn’t get to dreaming over one of Shakespeares descriptions of a fight in ye olden 1 times and fail to take advantage of 1 an opening in a twentieth century 1 scrap. 1 Herman Kanwisher who died over i at Valparaiso left a will providing that i each pall bearer receive ten dollars ’ and that a barrel of beer he provided I for their entertainment. The funeral's i over boys, so there need be no rush 1 for the jobs. 1 ' I Speaking of Clem Shaver, former , democratic national chairman, the , Fort Wayne News-Sentinel says,"Clem ( acts like a clam.’’ Well, they can't , say that about John Raskob, who is , now the director of the party. You will be interested in many of the displays here during Old Home Week and one of them will be that of the electrical equipment to be shown by the General Electric company and including every modern convenience in their line. D. C. Stephenson has promised Attorney General Gilliom to aid him in ridding Indiana of Klanism. Since he had more to do with planting it here than any other man, he owes such an effort now. However, if the deal includes leniency for him, there will be many objections offered. After all much of the politics you hear now will have little effect on the campaign. Remember that the campaign has not opened atqj that neither Governor Smith or Mr. Hoover has announced his position on the various great and important questions. They wiii do so within a month. ■

— -- / TODAY’S CHUCKLE Sacramento Cal., July 26 —(U.R)— California hospitals may give a patient a drink of whiskey, but they're forbidden to give him a shave or haircut unless by a duly registered harher, according to a recent ruling I of the attorney general. —-I I I 0. L. Vance will/iavo charge of the display of relics and antiques for Old • Home Week. He will list them and i i distribute them for display in the i various show windows, making a very interesting feature. If you have some 1 article that you think would interest the public, list It with Mr. Vance. Government statistics recently published, show that divorces are increasing more rapidly than marriages, not a very good showing for the flapper and flivver days. In Indiana the report shows, marriages increased less than two per cent while divorces increased five per cent during the same period. In Adams county there were 134 marriages last year as compared to 159 the year before and seventeen divorces as compared to eleven in 1926. | Mr. Raskob, new head of the democratic national committee does not believe in doing business on a shoestring. As the chairman of the finance board of General Motors, he has some idea of the cost of a campaign of nation wide extent. He estimates it will cost three million dollars or more to make an organization in every state in the union. He will meet the opposing party on their own battle ground and using their own kind of amunition and will do it all above hoard, making a report of expenditures monthly. Its a fight to the finish this year. Mayor Bill Thompson of Chicago, who a few months ago was looked upon as a power, who was entertained at the White House and shown many other courtesies, is now at low ebb and there are rumors that he will resign his office and quit politics. His defeat in the April primaries, his loss of a $1,700,000 law suit, the fact that he is defendant in two libel suits and is otherwise finding the world not as pleasant a place as his dreams made it, are said to have resulted in depressing him to such an extent that he will not even try to check the Smith advance in Chicago and Illinois. Its a tough old game, this politics. Gov. Smith's plan for a conference with farm leaders and economists, immediately after his election, to formulate a program for the farms means speedy action after his inauguration. It is well known that he has been giving serious consideration to the condition of agriculture for a long while, and is keenly alive to the necessity for remedial action. Nothing that Mr. Hoover can do now will wipe out the fact that for eight years he has sat at the elbow of the President and done nothing. If he has been concerned over the plight of the farmers, he has made no sign. Instead, he has gone along with the administration in its policy of indifference, and he assures us that he will continue the administration's attitude toward all questions. This makes his position plain.—New York World. o : ************* * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * x***********v©THUßSDAY’S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES WEAF —Network 25 stations 7 pm.— Preliminary bouts at Yankee Stadium.
