What a farce it all is. Forty-live Fort Wayne citizens indicted for violation of the prohibition laws. One would think that this and the many other “pinches" made there would tend to lessen the traffic but it will go merrily en with new kings and new runners. At least it has. Adams county farms are worth money as can h discovered if you watch the real estate transfers or try to buy a good one. They will be worth more when every owner realizes that he has a real asset if he owns fat nting lands in this community. Boost your own business and the other fellows will do likewise. Things are getting a little serious in Chicago. Five of the loop banks have refused to loin the school board the money necessary to continue the schools through the year. They hate been asked to explain why and will no doubt bi- able to do that. In the meantime money is being borrowed in New York City and other places to meet the pay rolls. They are going to have a murder trial at Angola in which the first big job will probably be to prove that Thomas Burke, who is supposed to have been th© victim, is really dead. What if the defense brings him into court? There are rumors that might be done, it’s an unusual case and should produce some news as a brilliant array of attorneys will take part in it. The Wall street slump started with a decline of radio stocks and was followed by about every thing on the list. Tills may not be the most welcome news for those communities where radio factories operate but there does seem to be an over abundance of such mills and this field can be overdom- we presume just the same as have been numerous others. The federal reserve board will restrain the use of its credit for speculative purposes which will mean that a curb will be placed on the wild trend which has been on for a year past. While it may prevent a lot of folks who were just starting in this form of easy money business it will save thousands from ruin. The safest way to have and to hold wealth is to earn it. The stock market breaks again and a lot of fellows who figured it couldn't happen and wouldn't at least for a year or two are scurrying to cover up uny way they can. Os course a market must go down or no one would play it. That's thy trouble, those who have the power to force it one way or the other are always In command and those who play it are just the producers. i.'L!

’ TODAY’S CHUCKLE ! New Haven, Conn. —(UP) —A local theater decided to give away ! flee candy and ginger ale during ,i "Appreciation Week" The demand , I was so great the theater was forced ;l to order 1,000 bottles of beverage I and 100 pounds of candy a day. ’ i the fact that though we spend a milI i lion dollars a year to exhibit fat bulls ' at the state tair we refuse to care for i those mentally ill. The senators evidently were not convinced that the hospital was needed for they voted the bill down decisively. We sincerely hope that the legislature will defeat the bill proposed to create a state income tax. it would raise but a small proportion of the huge sums needed but would tend to keep industries from locating in Indiana and the state needs more factories. Wisconsin has such a law and has lost a number of its best industries, will lose more and will not get new ones. Os course the problem of raising sufficient money to meet the many demands is a serious one and difficult to solve but It should be worked out in some manner that does not do more harm than it does good. • ■ Three hundred years ago women I sought beauty in secret. They made. their own beauty preparations and rattier botched the job, according to modern standards, even resorting to such powerful aids as painting their faces pink. All this is disclosed by a faded book, published in 1623, which recently came to light in London, Conceited Secrets of Famous Beauties of Past Ages. The desire to make the I most of herself is inborn in woman | And she has carried it out to such an extent that today beauty secrets are flung upon the wind. Any woman who can read or listen knows them. Beauty has been democratized and, indeed, the beautification rite itself has become a public ceremony. Anil who will say that the frank artistry of today is not a vast step ahead of the deceptive and fumbling practices of bygone years?—Colliers. Mr. Quinn, Mr. Cross and Mr. Gottschalk of this city, Mr. Saunders of Bluffton and Mr. McGriff, of Portland, discussed at some length the proposed state park on the site of the old Limberlost and received assurances of I support. Eventually this will come I and the time can be speeded up if enough interest is manifested in the three counties which would benefit by

II about equally. The Isaac Walton League Is back of the movement and there is no doubt as to the earnestness of many. This section of the state shuold have a state park and If this one, commemorating the work of the late Mrs. Gene Stratton-Porter is established, it will do more to advertise Indiana than any of the others. The work should go on and all who are interested in improvements of a 1 permanent nature should assist in giv- ' ing the right momentum to the movement, already well started.
