The country is moving and industries are going for ward in most instances. In this community indications are for grea strides and there is no reason for labor to complain that we know of. • Coast to-coast air passenger service Is now a reality. The first two planes carried thirty two passengers and the business is expected to grow steadily and rapidly It is a program inaugurated hy the Pennsylvania, Santa Fc railroads and the airplane company. This is real corn weather, provided of course, the field were not covered with too much water hy the recent ftiins. Where that happened and the sun came out so hot the crops are ruined hut in the higher places the stocks are growing so rapidly you can almost see them move.

The Elks who visited Los Angeles Ulis week for the national convention got a thrill that wasn't on the pro a several second earthquake which will make some of them shake until they get back where all they have to do is dodge lightning or hunt eover during a eyclone. iThe $25,000 awarded to Ann Living ston, the Tulsa girl who forced Erank lin Hardinge to settle in court, will probably be just a small part of her ultimate reward, it is claimed that she has received an offer of $3,500 per week from the vaudeville circuit and another fine contract with the movies. She ought to Issue free passes for life to the members of the jury. Had she lost she would have been in oblivion. Four bathers wire drowned in the streams and lakes of Indiana las' Sunday, two boys disappeared from a boat on the Ohio river, three people were killed in auto accidents and a half dozen others met, violent deaths over the week end. Each over-Suuday period brings a similar toll and we wonder when there will be a let up to the careless, bravado spirit ot young America. A fitting service was that held at St. Johns grove Sunday, participated in by ten churches in this section am! by members from a number of others, celebrating the one hundredth annt versary of Dr. .Martin Luther’s catechism. Powerful sermons, and excellent musical program, a fine entertainment and a general picnic and reunion made the occasion one long to lie remembered, impressing all with Ihe importance of the centenial. We don't desire to say "we told you so" but just what many predicted would happen is now occurring. The fight on the proposed tariff 1)111 In Congress is being made by those largo Jpanufacturers who realize that there Js such a thing as to high a tariff for is such a thing as too high a tariff for of our business in that part of the ■World which lies across the seas and th|t to be a more bitter tiaft -than anl jwll'ch happened hereoL. ’ The records of mendicants and beggars who have been taken into court during the past year show that many of them have been playing on the heart-strings of a sympathetic and soft hearted public collecting large

TODAY’S CHUCKLE Coldwater, Mich., — (UP) — A Chicago-owned automobile went through Coldwater here en route to Detroit with a sign front and rear which read "Don't shoot, we have no liquor." weekly sums and building up financial reserves of no small proportions. Among those who have recently been exposed we find one man who admitted collecting SIOO to $l5O weekly. One woman had accumulated $15,000 and was still receiving from begging an Income of SIOO a month. Another chap who seemed to have the palsy and peddled pen knives for ten cents said that his average daily deposits were SIOO and boasted that he owned $40,000 in first mortgages. Another supposedly poverty stricken man had SOO,OOO. Another pauper had $79,000. Another old man had SIO,OOO in various hanks and owns three tenement houses. These are just a few, a very few, of the cases that come to light in the courts but they will show the riches that are beiiig acquired by those who are nothing more than parasites on the streets of our cities. Those cities which are passing legislation to keep beggars off the streets are doing a good thing. The mail carriers have returned to their homes to resume their never ending duties of delivering and careing for the mail of their routes. They are a bunch of real fellows and sometimes we wonder if they get all the credit they deserve. Os all our pub lie servants, those who daily drive the rural routes and those who trudge up and down our street, rain or shine, hot or cold, none serve us better, y praises usually go unsung. Recently a letter carriers, Ernest Ecke, who had carried mail in New York City for forty-one years, was retired. He was given a gold watch by his felloe, carriers but not a word is said of any recognition of his lifetime of services, from those he served. During his long service this man's beat which was for years over nine miles, walked thousands of miles and his was no pleasure hike, no game of golf, just work, day in and day out, accepted hy most in a blase manner. The rural carrier has many trials and tribulations, facing all kinds of weather aud roads and all sorts of people. At this time it is not amiss to ask the public to treat the mail carriers, rural and city, with courtesy and to do those things which assist them in their work. We know they will appreciate it though there has been, no hint of a desire for sympathy from the faithful men who carry the mail. o _ * TWENTY YEARS AGO * * From the Daily Democrat File * * Twenty Years Ago Today * July 9, 1909, — Fountain pen fakir holds forth on court house corner hut does slim business as most of his audience had been stung before.
