A spirit of enterprise on the part of the business men, a willingues to attempt new uudertak ings and make constant improvements in their service. 3. —Absence of the carping and knocking spirit that chills publicspirited effort in many communities. 4. A willingness to co-operate, ami to accept new and progressive ♦(Teas, on the part of the general public. Two of these characteristics call fhr good leadership, and two call for co-operation from the whole population. When the people are generally willing to co-operate with community movements, the strong and wise leadership is apt to appear. How far do you walk in a day? The National Association of Chiropodists and Podiatrists recently put pedometers on a number of persons engaged in various occupations, to obtain answers to this question. One of their conclusions was that housewives ordinarily Walk seven and a half to eight miles a day, not counting any walking done outside their homes. After plodding through the routine of daily toil, climbing and descending the stairways again and again, the housewives of Adams county will credit the above statement. This is the reason why so many young brides desire small houses now. They refer to the beautiful and spacious homes of their grand, fathers, as Noah's arks. The men who build houses should not be too proud to take advice from thenwives, who will tell them how to •save steps. A conveniently arranged kitchen subtracts several miles from the daily pilgrimage of the house worker, and saves aching hacks and feet. The women will tell their husbands to pay more for jt.

QUICK RELIEF FROM CONSTIPATION That is the joyful cry of thousands since Dr. Edwards produced Olive .Tablets, the substitute for calomel. Dr. Edwards, a practicing physician for 20 years, and calomel s oldtime enemy, discovered the formula for Olive Tablets while treating patients for chronic constipation and torpid livprs. Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, just a healing, soothing vegetable laxative safe and pleasant. _ No griping is the "keynote" of these little sugar-coated, olive-colored tablets. They help cause the bowels and liver to act normally; They never force them to unnatural action. If you liave a “dark brown mouth” —bad breath—a dull, tired feelingsick headache—torpid liver—constipation, you should find quick, sure and pleasant results from one or two of Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets. Thousands take them every night to keep right. Tij them. 15c, 30c, 60c.

TODAY’S CHUCKLE V- (U.R> — ♦ Stockholm. — The first Swedish all-talkie “Say It With Tones" had Its firstnight performance in this city and received eulogies both from the uudlvce and : the press. ♦ - ♦ Why should people buy various articles made In ether cities when you can get better goods homemade and home sold? For Instance we have oftened wondered why every body don’t use locally manufactured bread. Its better than most of that on the market, Its fresher and the money thus spent helps to keep things moving

In your owu community, aids those who support our schools and , churches, maintain your city plant and build your streets and roads and otherwise help. Ask yourself the question. Any persou who has the right to join the American Legion ought to feel proud of it and certainly ought to do It. The Adams Po.-.t hoys are making a vigorous campaign to add fifty to their membership and if pep and enthusiasm anu effort counts, I hey will do it. The organization is a non-political one, its purpose being to help tile county and the community and they have proven their ability tc do so in various ways. Join if eligible and if uot be a booster. A few people are not paying any attention to the warnings about passing school hacks w-hen they are loading or unloading passengers. Its the law and its realty more dangerous than passing street cars which have stopped for the accomodation of passengers. I' may lie necessary to cause the arrest of some of the violators 30 that tlie public will know that the trustees of Adams county were in earnest when they recently adopted the resolution to enforce the law. Seeretry Mellon of the United States treasury has urged the discontinuance of the manufacture of J2.W gold pieces as the country needs the gold. And why should we have gold money of that denomination? During the quarter century we have been watching business we have never taken in one of lhem. About all they are used for is to give to some one as gifts and they immediately go out of circulation. W'liat we want is money that will be circulated. Frank E. Wright, author of In diana's bone dry law, seems to be mixed up in a very bad deal. Besides .being connected with a wholesale fake stock project it now develops that the promotors accepted whiskey in payment therefor. Just how Wright can explain such a fall as that will he quite interesting to both his friends and Ids enemies. Another cold snap indicating that the weather man has determf toed to give the rivers a chance to settle down before lie pours more water into them. Through this section it is surprising how much the streams have lowered but In the south territories there is still some danger, so the freezing weather may be quite acceptable. Just a few days in which to secure your 1930 automobile plates. The deadline has been fixed by the secretary of state for January 31st, after which time tlie orders to the state police will be to arrest those who do not have them. -— -o— — ♦ —* — ♦ Modern Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE 1 ♦ (U.PJ ♦ Q.
