• J TODAY’S CHUCKLE ♦ (UiR) 4 London. —A man charged at | West London with shoplifting had stolen silk stockings, and a woman accused of the same ( offense had taken a package of | razor blades. I * ? new constitution ninny people are ( seriously thinking It over and a general discussion will probably be carried on later. Road Superintendent Eicher says < the roads are in very good condition for this time of the year due to the fact that a lot of work has already been done because of the early spring weather. The rains oi the past few days have broken them up some and it is hoped that every one will use the utmost care to protect them until they have ' dried out some. , We like dogs but we believe they ' are like other pets. They require ( attention. When permitted to run over the neighborhood or down town they damage property and become nuisances. The laws are ' rather stringent and it is hoped , that those who care about their dogs will see that they are kept at 1 home and properly cared for. ( Farm lands and buildings have 1 dropped twenty-one billion dollars . since 1920 which may explain the depression to some extent. We | have a farm board now under a I law passed after years of fighting in and out of congress and the prices during the past year have '' dropped steadily. Isn't it time to , admit that something is radically wrong some wtiere? ( f Chicago gansters have cotnpro- : mised and Al Capone, whose ad- ( < dress until recently was the Philadelphia calaboose, has been elect■>d general manager. It is claimed f they have agreed not to kill off i each other but to continue to take those "for a ride" who do not obey 1 tlienx. Just to show that they m**aff busineßS they took a man named "Blue" out and riddled him • with machine gun bullets. Shame on Chicago for standing for such a racket. 1 Secretary Mellon has given the Steel Corporation another refund on taxes of $33,000,000 which makes the total of taxes returned to them of $9 7 ,000,000 under his administration. Tliats a big refund and looks as though such a mistake could never have gone along since 1918 when they claim the errors were made. Coupled with the fact that the house recently increased th? tariff on steel causes many to feel that perhaps that great corporation is being played as a favorite. * TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY From the Daily Democrat File ♦ • April 18 — Erank Barthel writes lefter 'from Alaska where the long night is just turning to day.
