The fellow who predicted this would be an open winter ought to be caught and made to close it and hold it closed. You never can tell, perhaps the early winter will mean that we get it over quickly and have a nice long, pleasant, mild December, January and February. After the past few days most of us don’t care about any summer home at the south pole where Commander Byrd says seventy below zero is considered very moderate temperature. The difficulty seems to be that a good many of the outfits which congress is trying to investigate are bigger than congress in every way yon wish to take that. A West Point cadet slipped away and got married. Uncle Sam found it out and gave him his walking papers, evidently feeling that a gftod soldier should be taught how to fight only under one system. This is tile first big shopping week for Christmas and hundreds of folks began their business of selecting gifts today. You have about three weeks but why put it off to the last minute? There are so many advantages for those who get busy now. The football season closed just in time to keep the players and spectators from freezing to death. With the mercury hovering around the zero mark, several hundred thousand braved the breezes to watch the finals of the gridiron battles Saturday. Looks as though all they wanted to do was to knock the bottom out of the stock market and they certainly did that. Now that it has been patched just a little every body seems happy. They don’t even seem able to keep the clerks busy down on Broad and Wall stret. With the Indiana treasury depleted to a stage that makes officials worry about meeting the payrolls the next few months it looks as though there i may be some bunk to the talk of the state spending a lot of money on the program to bolster prosperity. After all there can be no magic about this matter, it has to be on the level. This community moved forward the past year largely because wo did things. We are now in the last month of the year and we should begin now to plan a program for next year. There are a lot of things that can and should be done and if we get set properly there is no reason why we shouldn't make next year a better one than any we have enjoyed. The provinces of Ontario and Quebec in Canada where most of the pulp for print paper comes from are insisting on an increase of five dollars per ton which puts every newspaper up against a stiff proposition. It means greater overhead at a time when its difficult to meet. The present prices are fifty per cent higher than a few years ago.' Congress is ou again aud we will have a couple of weeks of “winking * ■ and blinking’’ before they go home to see what Santa Claus brought. As-

TODAY’S CHUCKLE London, —(UP)— "The perfect landlord” who sued a woman tenant for rent at Marylebone County Court admitted that he did not know how much the tenant owed him. ter the holidays they will reconvene I for a two months session and the disI cussiou of the tariff and the reduction of income taxes with neither of which ' problems will they probably consider seriously the average citizen. And so it goes on. It'J””-™!— i'....i. "S in a month the holidays will be over and we will be getting ready for 1930, which by the way is another election year. There will be considerable activities with county and state elections and a fight on tor congress. While it will not equal presidential years it wil provide plenty of interest tor those who get a "kick"’ out of the great American game. In Adams county we will elect officers to fill every place excepting auditor and recorder and candidates are already bobbing up for the various places. The primaries will be held in May and the conventions either in May or June. __________ 1 ■-i Commander Byrd is the second man in the world to have seen the south pole and he is one of the few to have seen both the north and south sides of the globe. He reached the pole last week,.making the trip by plane and back to his base, Little America in twenty-four hours. In 1911, Capt. Amundsen after a ninety- ' seven day dash, reached the southern extremity of the world. England is preparing to claim the country around the pole because of Amundson's accomplishment but most folks over this way don’t care who owns it. When Commander Byrd gets back to the states he will be able to tell much about the region to the far south that has never been told and that is more the purpose of ’ his expedition than to add to our possessions, as we take it. He has performed a great act and every American is proud of the accomplishment of him and his Ctew.
