♦ ' - <' TODAY’S CHUCKLE ♦ <U.R> ♦ Dumfries, Scotland.—A kins- I man of •‘Bonnie Annie Laurie,” i Colonel Sir Claude V. E. Laurie, Fourth Baronet of Maxelton, dlml in his 75th year at Max- ■ welton House, his estate in I I Dumfriesshire. | to carry on the work of a great Hartford City expansion program Along with it they are urging every body to forget every old score and aid In a long, strong pull together. Its a fine thing for any community and cannot help but result in good worth many times its cost. Two Elwood men, Elmer Mauis and Otis Hussong, were caught entering a school building through a window valued at twenty cents which they had broken. Each was fined forty cents and given a thirty day jail sentence. Just how the amount of the fine was figured we don't know but it looks like the rule of double the value of the property destroyed. Its a long road that doesn't turn. Wolf Lakritz asked for a divorce from his wife on the grounds that she took all his money and refused to buy him medicine when he was ill. The court granted him three dollars a week alimony and ordered Mrs. Lakritz to buy him a SIOO set of false teeth. Now bite that off. It happened in Detroit this week. Mayor Showalter of Wabash sentenced Raymond Clark of Kokomo to church for ten weeks and fined him ten dollars for being intoxicated. The mayor after hearing the man's story gave him the choice ot promising to attend church regualrly or taking the dose he had been giving others found guilty of similar offenses', a term in the penal farm and Clark promsed not only to go to church but to accompany his children to Sunday school. It may prove a better remedy than the more severe method. Millions of sport fans over the country learn with deep regret of the death of the great sportsman and writer. Walter Eekersall. Only forty-three years of age he was a veteran in sports and was recognized as a football general equalled by few and perhaps excelled by none. Like many who have engaged in the vigorous sports he died from a bad heart but died tryng to fight off the attack and while standing. He will be missed by those who have learned to watch for his predictions and his stories of various sports, particularly of the middle west. Undue centralization of authority in the Federal government is most undesirable, in the opinion of Governor Christianson of Minnesota, who sees a menace in the growth of bureaucracy which is usurping th" power rightfully belonging to the individual states. In a recent article he declares that we have enough red tape, delay and waste now, and will have more of these, with perhaps corruption to boot, if the present trend toward centralization is permitted to continue. Referring to the numerous commit ions and regulatory bodies now functioning in Washington for the control of commerce and industry, Govc rn o r Christianson says: “While I approve of measures by which business is rcgulat ed wisely and controlled firmly, I emphatically disapprove of the numerous and petty regulations with winch little bureaucrats in Washington annoy and harass business, big and little." Every business man is subjected to numerous annoyances through these foolish regulations and requirements, none ot which have any bearing upon the public welfare or serve any purpose whatsoever i xccpt to make more government) jobs. — —-•(>■ "* 1 ' ——— Don't be a KIBITZERSEE and HEAR one, and j You’ll know why!

The prairies of Illinois, Indiana, lower Michigan and Wisconsin were mantled with a white blanket 12 inches deep on the level and six feet or more where yesterday's ; howling gale hail piled it in drifts. Chicago was in the grip of snow havoc as extensive as the worst | storms of winter entailed. More than 20,000 men toiled with shov j els, snow plows and trucks to clear the hampering layer from streets, street car tracks and suburban and steam lines. Traffic began to hasten its tempo after crawling along for 24 hours, or halting altogether wherA drifts , were impassably. Four lives were claimed by the ‘ storm in the city and the toll of

injured from two wrecks on the rapid transit elevated line, and scores of mishaps on streets and sidewalks was estimated today at t 3<> At least 20.000 loop workers ( were marooned in the heart of the . city overnight and slept n hot. - - Their plight was paralleled b> that of scores of motorist, from th., citv whose automobiles were ( Stalled along country highways. - They spent the night at farmhouse or walked to villages and < sought shelter wherever there was | room. Only once before since weather bureau records have been kept has then 1 been a March storm to compare with the one that lashed tho city night before last ami all day yesterday. That was on March 30 uiid 31, 1926. The snowfall for that 48 hours was 12.6 inches. The latt*t official measurement of the present snow was taken last night and showed the skies had dumped 10.7 inches of snow onto Chicago. Flurries were wripped up for • hours after that and early today 1 Forecaster C. A. Donnel estimated I the average depth of snowfall was | 12 inches, with the probability that enough more would fait In the I dying ebb of the storm to break all records. The record was secure as far as a single day and night of storm was concerned. Q COURT HOUSE The case of Ed Berling vs. Ed P.
