They *ay it costs nothing to be polite bpt a Pittsburgh office build- , ing owner has figured it out that ( it t-bsts him $25,000 annually be- | cause the men, through custom , take off their hats, thus taking up ( more room in the car and making , it necessary to run that much. s oftener. I f Silas Strawn is talking “turkey" to the officials of Chicago, including -Mayor Thompson and has notified them that unless there is ( genuine cooperation no cash will i be produced to make good the pay rolls. Why don t they "bounce" Thuffipson and put a man like StTawn in power?

It was announced In , police court that 3,000 Bum- , monies would !>• issued I against car owners who failed to pay their taxes tor the j last quarter of 1929. ’*— — * They are insisting on the re- : moval of Governor Walter Kohler I I from office on charges of excessive ’ expenditures during his campaign , so ail the wise boys don’t happen i to live in Pennsylvania. The su--1 pre me court of Wisconsin has ruled that Kohler must face the ouster charges. A family over In Union township, Huntington county, now includes four pair of twins, the latest born a few days ago. The parents. Mr. and Mrs. Clark now have twelve children and hope to have as many more, which is certainly doing their share to keep the farm population of that county up for the census taker. The decision of the Federal court that the Indiana chain store law is unconstitutional leaves a million-dollar deficit in the school | aid fund and that treasury is worse than in the “red" now according to stories of the past few weeks. When we spend money on antici- ' pation we are getting in deep water 1 usually and it takes a good swimmer to go against such a stream. 1 Being a policeman in Chicago ’ these days must be a tough Job. 1 Dodging bullets and ducking < bombs, evading the blackjacks and dealing with a dozen gangs of hijackers and murderers would not be pleasant at best and then whfti * you have to do it without pay day i arriving on time, its about any- 1 thing but a pleasant position. Still ( a lot of men want to hold on to their jobs it seems. J It seems that the silly season is always open. The Virginia legis- 1 lature lias been considering a special law to permit President Hoover to fish in the Rapidan in 1 violation of the law closing the j streams to fishermen generally. Os i course the president declines to be marked out for any special im- , munity and bluntly states that he doesn't stand for any policy permitting fishing by anybody out of < season. By the way. one of the best tilings cx-President Coolidge ( ever said was in his message to a a friend in the Black Hills country, 1 a where he had fished for trout. "I did not catch a whole lot,” said Calvin dryly, “but I intimidated a * good many."—The Lafayette Jour- a nal. 1 When Charles Evans Hughes be- , comes fillet Justice of the United f States, his son, Charles Evans Hughes, Jr., will quit Ills post as | solocitor general, highest position | n the department of justice next I to attorney general and there is < a probability that the place will e go to Robert Taft, son of the re- t tiring chief Justice. Fate is some- ■ times stranger tlian fiction. In 1910 Mr. Taft, then president, appointed Mr. Hughes as a member i of the supreme court. It was generally believed that this was a wise political turn eliminating the distinguished New York governer H. Knapp# Son Decttl ur's Authorized Radrola iiird Radiotron Dealer.

from the possibilities of becoming a candidate for president. Hughes resigned in 1916 after he had been nominated for president. He was defeated and in 1920 became secretary of state while Taft became the head of the supreme court. It has been some shifting of the scenes, with records worth while by each man. o Modern Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE ♦ - (U.K) ♦ Q.
