Down in Nashville number of women have agreeil to report to officials each time they smell liquor on any ones breath which will probably bar them from attending some of the “cock- i tail” functions. it may l>e locking the door after the horse is stolen to pass a law now abolishing the statute of limitations so ( far as officials are concerned but it shows Mr. Leslie as governor wishes ] to cany out his promises made as a ( candidate. , . Keeping your feet on the ground is good advice but difficult to follow when the ground is covered with ice. , Thev hav'nt built the round corners to take care of slippery conditions i and a good many folks had theirs heels in the air the past twenty four hours. The prohibition investigation will ' require two years it is announced 1 from Washington. In the meantime, 1 what? will the country go on just so- 1 so, wet when drinking and dry when when talking? Certainly there are some steps to be taken in the meantime if there is any body in author- 1 ity really desirous of aiding the cause. 1 t The legislature was in session only an hour or so yesterday but during that time they passed a bill of great 1 -iimportance to them-the expense ap- 1 I propriation bill, through which they draw their salaries at a cost to the state of $150,000. in a couple of months , you can make up your mind whether I its worth it or not. Al Smith in his radio address urged the democratic party with its more than fifteen million voters to keep up the fight and called attention to many ' benefits that have been derived. He also pointed out a hopeful future for the party if we will work together and advocated the immediate payment of the $1,500,000 deficit of the national committee. His argument is sound. An Elkhart man. acquitted of murder collasped when the verdict was ' returned after six hours of watchful waiting tor the jury to come In. When he was revived he declared he would ' enter the ministry for which he was educated but later wandered from the • straight and narow path. He says he will try some new theories with the i pc ice and it may prove helpful up in that section of the state. * ____________ ■ ‘ President Coolidge says in reply to ■ what he Is going to do when his term ' expires: "whittle." Perhaps he has J been practising at that during the past few years. Truth is, the retiring executive has saved several hundred thousand dollars since he became president and does'nt have to hunt a job through he could likely get a very good one and a very ‘easy one if he so desired. Senator Reed says that If we should have a war with Brittain the Panama canal would be wiped out by airplanes in five hours. Well the thing to do

i TODAY’S CHUCKLE Copenhagen —(UP)—The driver of the Aarhus fire engine pulled up so sharply that the entire crew were slightly injured and fresh engine and crew had to go to the fire. is not to have war with England or any other country and besides it would be some job for them to get the planes over the Panama before we could meet them. At that it is just as well to have some good airplanes and any other equippment that will prevent other countries from getting too chesty. The Kellog treaty, a supposed preventative of war, is now a part of the government. Thus closes a matter which has predominated more or less since 1918 when the World war closed. This treaty is not so different in meaning and purpose than that propounded by the late Woodrow Wilson but under a different name and approved by politicians it goes over. If this meant entanglements then, it perhaps does now, though that fact is not being mentioned. Is’nt it a funny game? The greatest thing about living is the fun you get out of it. Some folks say this is the wrong philosophy. Our friend “Bill” Fitch, a go-getter business success of Aurora, Illinois, says fun shouldn’t be the mainspring of life, but rather the "Rotary Club" idea of Service. Henry Ford of Detroit recently said: "Yesterday we judged business by the profits it made: today by the wages it pays; Iwit tomorrow the test of all business will be the servise it renders."- Mid-West Review. There must be more money collected as taxes to take care of the increases desired in salaries. Thats the opinion one gets by glancing through the bills now being offered in the legislature . One provides for new officials and higher salaries and the next for some means of raising more money without too big a yelp. The finest thing that could be done would be to reduce over head so we would'nt need more money and the senator and representative who votes against spending money will be more popular in the next campaign than those who favor it.
