TODAY’S CHUCKLE 1 • (U.R) ♦ Newcastle. Eng.—Mrs. Augusta | Smith, a widow who ‘‘stole and married" her daughter's sweetheart 16 years younger than herself, discovered he had a . | violent disposition, and summoned him to court charged ' with cruelty. Along with general cleaning up in Decatur this spring we would i like to see an organization made ! to dean the river banks. We did I i It once several years ago and we I I know of no improvement more proi uounced. A call for volunteers would bring forth an army of men who give a day or two to such a project. Making up the election boards in most Indiana counties is quite a jolt this year. The law prevents any one serving as Inspector or judge who is related as close as second cousin to any of the candidates and since the field of aspirants for office is so large it becomes difficult to select officers for primary day. Though Mr. Hoover has been in office only a little more than a year but already there are rumblings of dissatisfaction among the leaders of his par’y. We don't take much stock in the early boom started a few days ago for VicePresident Curtis but its more than I keiy that unless conditions change rapidly they will trot out somebody to make things rather hot if the president "chooses to run" when the time comes. Berne is straw voting to ascertain whether or not the citizens i there desire the services of mail i carriers and as might be guessed , the trend is almost one hundred per cent in favor of having their letters brought to their doors. The I postoffice department has promised the service if it is shown it is really wanted and of the first forty votes cast only one preferred the old system of asking "any thing for me?" J 'Berne suffered a severe fire yes I terday and such disasters are alway- unpleasant. We hope the | loss will not interfere any with the progress of that splendid town and that the owners of the property will Im? able to rebuild and recover any losses sustained. The fire demon has been unusualy busy in the county the past week or two and we can only renew the warnings from state first marshall headquarters that we can't be too careful. The action of the Lion's club in naming a committee to urge Congressman Vestal to make every 'effort to secure a Federal building for Decatur is deserving of comI inundation and we sincerely hope that similar action will be taken by many other organizations here. Wi need the building. We have been promised it for years. We have been sidetracked often enough and concerted action by the people here in demanding it should aid in securing speedy action. Tragedy is contained in the brief news item that a couple, wed fiftyfour years and the parents of ten children, applied for divorce. It seems g discouraging view of the I marriage relation when two who lived together that long decide to part the'r ways. Probably it was only the children that held them — CORRECT HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE. DIZZINESS, DIABETES WITHOUT DIET Avoid paralysis and stomach | trouble in advanced ydars. Do i it with San Yak Pills for the kidneys. They give ease to stomach, antiseptc laxative to the bowels preventing 95 per cent of all human ills. Including | swelling of limbs and feet. Dr. L. P. Bailey, of Michigan, 1 says of San Yak: “It will do all you claim. It is fine medicine | for the blood and .has cured I rheumatism of long standing. When one treats the kidneys with San Yak he is renewing the whole body. One can always depend on San Yak." > Sold by B. J. Smith Drug Co.

[ together so long, and now that | there is no longer a home to be maintained for the sake of them, the parents give up the attempt. Yet the tragedy Is that in fifty-four years there were not set up the habits of compatibility that could endure to the end. The failure in , this case is not just the present in stance of applying for divorce, but I the inability, or more likely the unwillingness, to regard the marriage relations in the proper fashion. One cannot believe that tlife fiftyfour years were very successful, only to end iu failure. —Huntington Herald-rPess. — —o BIG FEATURES OF RADIO ♦ ♦ Thursday’s 5 Best Radio Features Copyright 1930 by UP.
