With the rivers in the south part of the state at flood alage this time of ■ year it is quite probable that the folks in the low lands will have to move out before spring. , There were a <1 zen more marriages in Adams county in 1928 than the 1 year previous and seven less divorces, a record which indicates we are living more happily. Some live bird will be trying to ' start a summer colony on that new 1 island recently discovered by Com- 1 giander Byrd in the Autartic region if given i.ny opportunity at all. Mr. Hoover receives candidates for the cabinet a few days and then goes out to tease the fish and think it all ' over which gives all the fish a good ’ chance to do likewise during the alternate periods. They are having real winter up in Northern Michigan and Wisconsin and in a number of towns and villages « the inhabitants have been completely shut off from the outside world. It is I claimed the snow is the deepest known in that section in many years 1 and there has been unusual suffering. The investigation of the armory financing in Indiana was started by Senator Gottschalk who knows al! about the deal and who desires to at least let the public know. The committee may never report but we predict that they will be frequently reminded by the Adams county senator. There are several things this community ought to be boosting right now. One is the securing of easements on state road sixteen from this city west and the other is assisting in securing contracts for beet acreage. Eat h of these movements means much to the community now and in the future. Down in Mexico City they are using alcohol as. an anaesthetic which should add to the popularity of operations. Instead of inhaling ether or some form of gas, the surgeon injects enough alcohol to “pickle” the patient and then proceeds with every body happy. Seriously it is claimed that it is valuable because instead of depressing the system it. acts as a stimulate while relieving the pain. It remained tor Sheriff Goodrich of St. Joseph county to spring an entirely new one when he made a request from the county commissioners for an appropriation of S3OO with which jo buy drinks from the speakeasies so that proper evidence can be secured. We presumed officials had the right to taste or smel! liquor if they suspiciotied It contained more than a half of one per cent alcohol. The matter has been referred to the county council who may wish to assume the .testing job themselves. Whats the use of a primary when we don’t use it ? In Lake county last year but 3,101 votes were cast for all the democratic candidates while Dailey received 35,107 in the November election. And it’s not all one-

In Marion county there were 116,000 votes cast for the republican - candidates for governor while Leslie ■ received 80,000 in the fall. In the j same county Dailey had but 25,000 in 1 the primary and 101,000 in the election. It is also worth considering that with the primary law the selection of the candidates is placed in the hands of a few of the larger counties. Just think over the candidates of the past few years and notice how many for senator and governor have been chosen from Marion county. It takes a terrible accident like the one at Bellevue, 0., to make us realize the urgent necessity ot tackling the grade crossing problem in earnest. Nineteen people were killed at Bellevue when a bus drove onto a track in a heavy snowstorm and was struck by a fast electric interurban car. Apparently the drivers of both cars were using reasonable care. The bus driver stopped his machine, got out and looked up and Gown the track before proceeding. The interurban motor-j man saw the bus stop and thought it j was waiting for him to proceed. The ’ tragedy was simply one of those things that inevitably happen at grade crossings 'every now and then. Let us hope that it spurs us to formulate some kind of comprehensive program whereby all grade crossings eventually can be eliminated. — Kendallville News-Sun. Governor Leslie feels that the stale I owes him a living commensurate with t his position. He nas asked the legislature for $150,000 to buy a governor's ! home, SIO,OOO a year for maintainence I and a Lincoln automobile. We remember that twenty years ago when the legislature suggested to Gover- ■ nor Marshall that he receive tree house rent he declined it though he favored some plan for such proceedure for the future executives. A very comfortable home was secured in the north part of the city but it does not seem to-meet the requirements of the present day governors for there| have been a number of complaints registered. The appropriations for the present session will be large enough even with trimming everywhere possible and the governor may have to use persusion to get his desires. o 41************ * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * ****** ****** 8 THURSDAY’S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES WABC—and Network 7 pm.
