The county treasurer of Cook county of which Chicago Is the capitol has finally succeeded in securing a two million dollar loan with which to meet salaries and once again the employes can get up to the pie counter. The Bluffton annual street fair is the outside attraction this week and always an event worth your time. They have done it over there for some twenty-five years and every one admits, did it well. You won't lose much time by stopping your car when you see a school bus taking on or discharging boys and girls, but if you get into trouble over it you may lose your license and more time than you can possibly pass up in a lifetime. If you are one of those who really and truly enjoy daylight saving time, get your fill of it this week for next Saturday night at midnight you are supposed to slip the hands on the clock back an hour and at least for six months we will be back to normal and all alike on this time business. A fall trade week with special offers of new goods to the public would attra'-t attention and prove an excellent thing for every merchant taking part as well as the public. It ought to be worked out in a sensible and conservative manner. It pays to keep things moving. Two young ladies v/ere killed and a ten-year-old boy injured when a car driven by Miss Cloe Imel. 16, driving ■ ■ a car for the second time in her life, . steered it into a culvert and tree. „ These are regrettable results and a part of the cost of this rapid age we I are going through. The merchant who advertises daily | has the advantage ot those who only 1 J take an occasional fling at it. Ot ' „ course advertising pays any way you • use it but the dividends are much • larger when you do it wisely and give • it some attention ...Try a Saturday " announcement and see if it don't boost your trade on Monday. • • Ml —. ■ — The at Washington are objecting because, so they say, Republicans are getting all the census jobs for next year. Maybe they are afraid that RepubliZ can census takers won't count the Democrats when they take the enumeration. — Newcastle Courier. And why not? From what we have heard they haven’t counted our votes, especially in the Gary district. Colonel Lindbergh, loved by every one, whether they admit it or not, greatest aviator in the world and his young wife are making a trip of thousands of miles to spread good will. Its great but most of us shudder when he is on one of these trips for fear even with his skill, something wil go amiss and that would mean a great loss to aviation and to his nation. The Keaffaber family over in Wabash county which has imagined the world against them, spread dangerous rumors, wrltting threatening letters and even committed arson are finding that there is but one end to such a course. The father and onr» son have been sent to prison and the mother and daughter suicided together Sunday.

TODAY’S CHUCKLE t Portland. Ore., —(UP) —It looks like a tough winter for the navy. The trade and commerce department here has been advised by the navy department that it is in the market for 247,000 pounds of canned prunes. Four serious accidents here over the week-end brings home to us the thought that we should all be as careful as possible all the time. Over each Sunday occur many accidents but so far until this week, we have been rather fortunate here and some of us perhaps had the feeling that we were immune. However they can happen here or any where else and wil unless we use the greatest precaution. Ruth Hanna McCormick, a daughter of the twenty years ago famous Mark Hanna, has tossed her “blue bonnet” into the ring Sunday and announced she will give Senator Deneen, of Illinois, the battle of his political life. It is said she is a campaigner of no mean ability and in her recent race for congress which she won. she visited every county in her state and piled up a, wonderful majority. In congress we don’t hear so much of her but in the political arena she is a chip from the block it seems. Among the commissions appointed by President Hoover—you know thats the idea of government—is one of thirty-nine members to solve the traffic congestion problem. That’s a big undertaking and will require about all the ingenuity of the engineer president and his group of three "baker dozen.'’ Sitting in Washington and working out a plan to take care of traffic in a million towns and cities with all their individual requirements and obstacles, will keep them busy I the rest of their natural lives. * TWENTY YEARS AGO * I * From the Daily Democrat Fie * Twenty Years Ago Today Sept 24 —.The Farmer’s Daughter at H the opera house tonight.
