Here's the key, teams and fans. Enjoy the games and accept our hospitality. Welcome Berne, Geneva, Monroe, Monmouth. Hartford. Kirkland and Jefferson. We re glad to entertain you. If today's sunshine and invigorating air is a sample of the March lamb we re reudy to place an order for chops every day. March came in like a lamb and if the weather man continues to dish out this brand of weather for the remaining three weeks of the winter season, we'll laugh at the old Ground hog. The next big scheduled fight is to take place on March 7 between John D. Rockefeller and Colonel Robert Stewart. That's one fight we can't buy, a ticket for nor cast a ballot in deciding who ii be the winner. The basketball games will provide thrills galore for those who enjoy this popular and wholesome sport. Join the rooters and pull for your team# remembering that it’s a friendly contest and that in the end only one team can win the sectional honors. The schools and friends of the basketball teams throughout the county extended greetings to their favorites and wished them link through the columns of the Daily Democrat yesterday. It was a line thing for the merchants to do and shows that the community believes in supporting its schools. High school basketball is a great spring tonic. It can take your mind off or lhose things which you might think are serious. Newspapers coming (o our exchange desk show special tourney editions published by the two Bluffton papers, the Banner and News, the Goshen papers, and others, and fine papers they were. Dr. Burt Mangold, well-known dentist of this city lias been re-elected city chairman of [lie Democrat party. Dr. Mangold served as chairman during the campaign four years ago, is an able leader who is interested in the success of his party in the fall (lection. The c ity campaign will not open for a while, March 7 being the first date for filing declarations by candidates. Thu primary will he held May 7. Goi. William J. Donovan of New - York will not lie in President Hoover's cabinet. Mr. Hoover has shown his first weakness and will not name him attorney-general, although the lighting colonel is one of the best qualified men for the post in the country. Public sentiment favored Ids appointment, but Mr. Hoover, probably from listening to a minority group, got cold feet and wanted Mr. Donovan to accept a make-shift job. Colonel Donovan will, retire March' \ as assistant attorney-general and New York republicans will probably try to run him for governor in a few years. II appeal that Liudy, the Lone Eagle. Hies best when alone. But a tellow has a right to get uervous when lie has his best girl with him

TODAY’S CHUCKLE Alhambra, Cxi.. —(U.R) —Ira Apple local resident, lives on Pepper street and Is the owner of an oraugu grove near his home and there are times when the best 1 “go up In the air." The little mishap , which occurred when Colonel Lindbergh attempted to land after taking Miss Morrow up hi the clouds, was a minor affair and to prove that there was nothing to It, the noted fiier and his sweetheart took another ride yesterday. There is something about this wonderful American boy which makes him (he idol ol' the country and of course everyone hopes that nothing serious will happen to him as a result of his flying. We need him. It won't be long now until daylight savings will be a subject of discussion and, of course, opinions pro and con will be heard. Decatur did not adopt the fast time last year. Several cities did and there was much confusion as a result. The order of ' business was not meant for two different sets of time. In this connection, a hill has been introduced in the legislature, making central standard time the official time for lnuiks and public institutions. If this bill is passed, and it seems that it has the support of a majority of the legislators, more confusion and foolishness will result this summer. If it passes, the state should abide by it. Anyway, before any action is taken we should wait and see what the legislature does about the matter and then abide by what the majority wants. , Knowing that the community is interested in the results of the sectional basketball tourney in this cite today and Saturday, Hie Daily Democrat, wishing to be of service to the public, has made special arrangements to cover the games and give out the Scores from this TjfTice. Extra telephone lines connect this office with the high school gymnasium and reports of the games will be obtainable every few minutes. The results of the night games will also be given out by the Daily Democrat and those who are interested are invited to call phones 1000 or 1001 and we'll try to answer all inquiries. The results of each game and special features by "Mark M. I'pp," sports editor of the Daily Democrat, will be carried in the regular editions. Mr. Hoover seems to be getting desperate about appointing his cabinet and as away out will take with him several members of the Coolidge cabinet. Among those almost assurj eu of a place are Henry L. Stimson. secretary of state, Andrew J. Mellon, secretary of the treasury; James Good, republican national chairman, . secretary of war; William D. Mitch- [ ell, solocitor-general and a one-time Democrat from Minnesota, attorney- . general; Walter F. Brown, Ohio polij tician, postmaster-general; Charles , Francis Adams, great grandson of 1 President Adams, secretary of the l navy; James J. Davis, secretary of > labor for the past eight years, to re- , main and Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur, ; president of Leland Stanford, secretary of the interior. The posts of secretary of commerce and agriculi ture are yet to be named. By next • Tuesday morning we'll know the eoini plete list. j The bunk situation in Bluffton and t Wells county is clearing up and 3 everyone is happy.

Strong For Scouting

mm * HHHHHHi - jHHHHRsHKv

Scouting with Avon Burk is more than a hobby. It Is part of his family. He has a son who is a Boy Scout. Mr. Burk is always interested In anything which has to do with scouting and is vice-chairman of the local Scout committee. As manager of the Burk Elevator company, lie comes into contact with many citizens of the rural community and hopes that the organization will soon spread to such an extent that the rural boy will have the same opportunity to lake advantage of Scouting as the city boy. He says that the Boy Scout movement Is amost worthy one and deserves the support of everyone in the community in order that its great work may be further enhanced. to more than $115,000. Out of the ruins of a fire generally comes a finer structure and It appears that such will l»e the case in the banking situation in Wells county. Where people have confidence, are not licked by temporary reverses, a few hard licks make them all the better to carry on and do bigger things. ******** * ****** * CONGRESS TODAY * 411********* ** * * * - (U.R> — Senate: Considers radio bill.
