Harry K. Thaw is making a third attempt to land in England and most folks over here hope he will succeed and then wire Al Capone an invitation to join him. The rains of the past couple of days have been appreciated by the farmers and gardeners for the soil was becoming so dry that cultivation was difficult.

France is trying to form a united government in Europe to be known as the United States of Europe but before they get far with that the promoters will bump into so many difficulties that they will probably throw up their hands. The various nations there speak different languages, have different ideals and have little in common. Every body admits that a lot of crookedness occurred again in the recent primaries in Lake county but no grand jury investigation is to be made and recounts are impossible it is said because of the excessive costs. If Governor Leslie wants to prove he is a regular guy he will give Indiana a square election and a square count in Lake county next. November if it takes every member of the militia to do it. The stock market is dull these days and will probably so continue until the general trend of business shows a decided improvement. High prices on the exchanges usually come when there is excitement and that follows large profits or expectations of them. This is a good time to invest your money in real estate, certificates of deposit in a bank, in bonds or in some place where you can realize and feel safe. You may not agree with the position taken by Mr. Morrow in announcing his candidacy for the republican nomination for senator from New Jersey, his stand being for a repeal of the eighteenth amendment but it is refreshing to find a candidate with the nerve to actually declare his belief instead oL trying to carry water on both shoulders. Os course there isn't much water in New Jersey which makes considerable difference to politicians and candidates we presume.

Huntington, Fort Wayne, Decatur and many other cities in tills part of Hie state are now using It and wlieu ali have adopted it many of tbe difficulties will have beeu erased. Our greatest objection to it is ths fact that it is so conflicting. However, it has many advantages and where used continues to be quite popular. After all its up to tho people and Bluffton will no doubt do as the majority expresses itself. Dr. Tibbetts made several talks here yesterday, his efforts being devoted largely to call attention to the evils of cigarette smoking among children. Dr. Tibbetts is not a crank but points out that growing boys and girls cannot lie benefitted any by indulging in smoking and that therefore it should be discouraged and we agree with him. That the habit is growing in this country there can be no doubt and while it does not have the ill effects that the use of narcotics and alcoholic drinks do, no one will argue that it helps the youngster or is the right kind of tonic for young mothers. The speaker yesterday stated many tacts that we could ail consider seriously and with benefit. Tlie check system of paying employes is becoming increasingly popular throughout the United States. Large firms have adopted it for several reasons, chief among which is the danger of pay roll robbery, at the same time encouraging employes to open bank accounts. With minor exceptions, no objection is made to the check system by the workers. Paying salaries by check should be the rule rather than the exception, yet it is difficult to break away from a tradition as old and well established as tlie pay envelope. The wage earner likes to have the feel of money in his pocket, a sensation which a check can not gratify. Because employes like the jingle of coins and rustle of paper, thousands of dollars have been lost to pay roll bandits and, much more important, hundreds of lives have beeu lost in defense of the pay roll satchel. The handling of large sums of money is always attended with risk and introduction of salary payments by check throughout the country would save many lives every year. Os equal importance is the fact that the wage earner, presented with a check in payment tor his services, is almost inevitably brought within the doors of the bank. Possibly at first he will not open an account, utilizing the services of the bank only to trade his check for currency. The transaction, however, establishes business relations between the bank and worker, and in due time the latter may be persuaded —to his own beu.’fit —to open an account. Thus the fundamental principles 1 of thrift may be inculcated. —Attica Ledger. ♦ • Modern Etiquette I By | ROBERTA LEE I ♦ (UJS ♦ y.

JAMES J. DAVIS INPENNSYLVANIA SENATE RACE Sec’y. of Labor’s Friends Say He is Modificationist; Has Vare Aid By T. J. O’Connell (United Press Staff Correspondent) Philadelphia, May IS — (UP)— James J. Davis, Secretary of Labor, is the candidate of the powerful Philadelphia and Pittaburgh Republican election of May 20. When William S. Vare, upon the advice of his physicians, withdrew from the primary campaign as a candidate for the senatorial short term, he called upon his followers to vote for Davis. As heir to Vare’s support. Secretgiy Davis has been placed in a peculiar position in the present campaign. Vare campaigned for the Senate in 1926 on a dripping wet platform and was nominated and elected. Davis, who inherits this following largely, is compelled to soft pedal the liquor issue because of liis official position as a member of the President's cabinet. Those close to him, however, insist that lie is a modificationist. The secretary of labor has brought considerable strength to the ticket he heads. Virtually every labor union in the State, as well as the powerful State Federation of Labor itself, has endorsed Davis enthusiastically. Not only has Davis succeeded in lining up the labor vote for himself, but he has won its w-ndersement for Francis Shunk Riiiwn. his running mate, who is tlie gubernatorial candidate. There was some speculation at first whether the labor vote would not go to Clifford Pinchot. one of Brown’s opponents for the goverNearly Killed by Gas —Druggist Saves Her “Gas on my stomach was so bad it nearly killed me. | My druggist told me about Adlerika.

norship, as tho Forester always has I beeu on very friendly terms with' labor. Political experts give Davl.J credit for lining up the labor vote, for Brown and the rest of the ticket. | As a candidate Davis presents a very human appeal to the rank ayd file of the party. Horn at Tredegar, Whales, in 1878, the secretary of labor came witlr his parents to the United States at the uge of seven: They were people of very mod erate circumstanceq and when James reached the age of 15 he went to work in an iron mill at Shharon, Pa., as a peddler. Some of his assciates in those days are his most ardent champions today. Outside of his notable record as Eecretary of Labor under three Presidents. Davis is best known perhaps through his activities as head of the Loyal Order of Moose He injected new life into an apparently dying organization and brought it to a position of independence and strength. The great Moos.' project at Mooseheart, llllnoi , where some 1500 child! en are educated and taught trades every year, was conceived and brought to fruiI tion by Davis. He also is credited ■ witli origaninating the idea which
