The bees of Adams county have been inspected and we are now all ready for winter. The popular indoor sport this week Is fishing fer your favorite radio station and making up a new log. Many of them have been switched to such au extent that its almost like starting in new to locate them. .. —ULS SJL— While they are checking up on the accuracy of the straw votes they might explain why every one taken in Indiana showed the election of Dailey for governor, yet he was beaten by nearly 50,000 votes. Secretary Wilbur of the navy department is out now for a larger navy, following tile president and so we will probably have a number of new ships, thus keeping the yards where such craft is built going along at a profit. The new emperor of Japan got his job much easier than did Mr. Hoover, but he missed all the fun of a real campaign. He would give half his kingdom for a reception such as Al Smith had on a good many occasions duiing the recent campaign. More than seven hundred thousand homes, destroyed during the World War have been rebuilt, it is announced. That is wonderful, but it again reminds us of the horrors and needless losses. If we hadn't had the war, it would not have been necessary to rebuild the homes. The opener of the festival week was a happy one and each program for the week is a good one that you will enjoy. Be sure to attend and get a smile on your face again. Quit looking so serious, everything is alright and the old world is wagging right along. County officers over at Danville, Indiana, seem to have decided to get theirs and get out. A month ago the county clerk was found short and sent to prison. Now the auditor is gone aud a check of his books reveals the fact that he has been helping himself to the school’ funds. If you can imagine any worse experience than rolling around on the Atlantic ocean in a life boat or on a raft, we would like to know what it would be. It those who had the recent experience when the liner Vestris sank have not got grey hair it's not likely they ever will have. Miss Lillian Ramsey, 18. a student at Oberlin. Ohio, bet her friend, Will Robinson, that she could sit on a railroad track, ahead of approaching train, longer than he. She won the bet but is in the hospital. The engine side-swiped her as she leaped. Education does not all come from books. Already they are mentioning candidates for governor and president and other officers. Its a little early. Better wait aud see what develops. In this country things often occur which change politics over night and four years is too far away to even guess against. Gerald Mills, over at Butler, shot his wife through the arm, pled guilty to assault aud was fined ten dollars and costs. How do they get away

P TODAY’S CHUCKLE Ulster, Ireland Nov. 14 —(UR)— fit-na given only water laid 27 eggs but hens given diluted wine laid 173 eggs iu the same time. This dlrelosure was made by Colonel 1 Wood, a prominent member of the Ulster "wet" party. with such a joke? If thia man was ) guilty of assault he should certainly ! have been more severely punished * and if he was not, he certainly should I I not have been dragged to court. » " I uu. I Ralph Updike, defeated candidate for congress, is demanding a recount of the vote at Indianapolis, though Louis Imdlow took him by about six 1 thousand votes. Seems as though a fellow who got trimmed that badly when- his party carried the county by thirty-four thousand, would just sneak off some where and hide, but not Updike. Bank bandits will probably not fool around the Farmers Bank at Ohio City very much after the word is Passed along that B. F. Hoffman, the cashier, has nerve and a trusty shot gun. He got hold of it yesterday and he sure did make a couple of hold-up guys break all records getting out of ills way. Usually the bandits are cowards except when they have the drop on you. We are suspicious of those fellows like Brisbane and Rogers who are already declaring that there is need of an election in 1932 Looks to us like its propaganda and not the smartest kind. Even men as wise as they admit themselves cannot forsee what will happen or what conditions will be in four years. One thing is sure, times must improve or there will be a red hot election. President Coolidge has been invited to speak at the sesquicentenniai celebration to be held at Vincennes. Indiana, next year, for which event elaborate perparatious are being made with the cash being furnished by Knox county, the state of Indiana and a million from the federal treasury. It promises to be one of the greatest affairs ever held in the middle west, marking the 150th anniversary of the capture of Fort Sackville by George Rogers Clark. \ While all those aboard the Vestris which sunk at sea the other day, had all the thrill they cared for, the one who no doubt got a thousand-fold does of it was Mike O'Loughlin, the chief radio operator. He stuck to his transmitter until the ship had turned over on its side and even then was sending the S. O. S. call through the air in efforts to secure help that would save the other 338 persons aboard. His was as brave an act as was ever recorded and he deserves due credit and a medal of honor. Governor Al Smith again proved last evening that he was as advertised, ‘'honest, able aud courageous," when he addressed millions over the radio, urged a continuance of the democraticparty fight and constructive -support of the Hoover administration. He admitted his disappointment -but nevertheless spoke cheerfully and hopefully of the future both for his party and his state. “There stands a man," one able to take the hard licks of fate along with the good strokes and take them with his head up and his mind clear. He analyzed the recent election and showed that a change of ten per cent of the vote would have likewise have changed the results, called attention to the fact that nearly fifteen million voters favored the democratic platform and urged a continuance of effort, poiuting out the need for au active and effective minority party. He also reminded the people 1 of America that Mr. Hoover is not the president of the republican party. ' but of these United States and as such 1 is entitled to a fair chance and to the 1 honest cooperation of all the people. 1 His address was sound air'd as always when he speaks filled with good common sense. t —— O w f .

Sothern’s reeftal will offer a brief survey of conditions governing the wilting of the plays he presents, of anecdotes in connection with the presentation of these dramas in the theatre, | aud a summary to the plots. From “Macbeth" he will recite the scene wherein King Duncan is murdered. He . will give a passage from ‘‘The Mer■hant of Venice" and some remarks on the r.nutic drama, with special (efereuce to Justin McCarthy's “if I I Were King ", including the recital of ■ several poems of Villon and Rudyard ; Kipling s ballad “To The True Romance." No other actor of the present day stage has by experience and study the equipment to present such a program as Sothorn has. For forty years Sotherns has appeared before the public. His career began with the decline of the so-called “Palmy days" of the theatre; it covers the romantic era of playwriting, and it extends into the present age when the stage seems at the parting of the ways. With Julia Mallow, Sothern acted in ten Shakespearean dramas. "Macbeth” was one of the m st sti iking productions Sothern and Marlowe made. They shed new light on this tragedy by their manner of stressing the great love story which brought about the destruction of the chief protagonists of tho drama. "The Merchant of Venice" has been objected to <>y certain sections of the Jewish race and has been banned from study in seme states. Sothern has chosen this comedy as a part of his program because he feels this agitation is entirely misdirected and unfair. That Shakespeare intended Shyldck as a symbol of the Jewish race has no foundation in the -text. He is a Jew, not the Jew. “If I Were King" has been acted hundreds of times by S them. It has 1 come to be a semi-classic of the theat tre and is one of the best examples of , romantic drama as opposed to the clas- , sic aud modern schools.
