Indiana doesn't need more prisons as badly as she needs more citizens who so conduct themselves that they won’t have to be sent there. I Business is certainly better. In Indiana we used $8,000,000 worth of gasoline during the month of March and a lot more than that in ?TPril and May. A M rs - Huntington of Hammond claims her husband tried to throw her from an airplane when it was 3,000 feet in the air and she wants a divorce. The fool might have wrecked his plane. The largest Crowd in history attended the automobile races at Indianapolis yesterday and the rac--.ing grounds at Winchester were packed. We Americans enjoy our thrills. If you were out on the highways yesterday you surely discovered that this country is any thing but “busted.” Millions of cars traversed the roads and many of them attended various events every where. .We sure do step on the gas. Candidates in the recent primary, whether or not they had opposition -or expense, must file an account- „ ing with the county clerk and the lime is just about up. This should not be overlooked. •• The weather man was rather • decent with the brand of sunshine • banded out for Decoration Day but we could have used just a trifle more heat. Most folks are getting dreadfully tired of building fires day. Four dead and twenty injured when one of the automobiles in . the Winchester races plunged ’ through the grandstand wall yes- ~ lerday.

Do you wonder that a lot of people are thoroughly disgusted? The tariff is being adjusted again and this time will probably meet the hearty approval of a few, the necessary votes of sufficient to send it to the president and the condemnation of millions. If there is any need for a higher tariff now for any industry excepting the aluminum corporations and a few who don't need aid, no one lias yet discovered it. Only fifty thousand veterans of the Civil War are still alive, according to the reports from the war department and over 8.000 answer'd taps the past year. In this country less than a score of the cld "boys in blue” are left from the several hundred who a few years ago were active in business, politics and otherwise. We owe them a debt we can never repay. The highway commission in Ohio has dopted a rule that bridges must be built before the roads are paved and we have often wondered why they could not be built at the same time. In this state we usually eJose the road a year for construction and then another year while the bridges are being built. However we notice that on No. 16 from here east the bridges are being built while the grade is made and <>a*sof these fine days, it will be ready for use. Major Imrie of Culver said in his commencement address here the -other evening that three diseases are destroying the morale of the people today and he calls them ignorance of the head, apathy of the heart and inertia of the spine, which of course is correct but to a more or less degree these ailments have been affecting people tor some centuries, according to history and we are perhaps in better health now than ever before, so far as these are concerned. However, it is always well to have our attention called to facts and that all of us, old and new graduates be told again how best to live and how to succeed. o * TWENTY YEARSAGO TODAY | i From the Daily Democrat File | » • May 31 —C.

Hanover, N. H.. May 31. —When the Dartmouth senior class graduates in June, no classman will have lived more frugally and unpretentiously than Nelson A. Rockefeller, heir to the world's largest fortune. So far, young Rockefeller has given every reason to believe that when the countless millions possessed by his family finally pass into his control, he will handle them just as judiciously as his father. John D., Jr., and his grandfather, John D., Sr., have done before him. After four years of intimate companionship, his brother seniors have come to know Nelson as a modest, unspoiled, democratic and frugal young man. Nelson’s entrance to Dartmouth University four years ago was awaited with no little interest. The world wondered how the Rockefeller scion would react to the regular custom of compelling freshmen to wait upon upper classmen. Young Rockefeller demonstrated he was a “regular” fellow who expected no favors the very first day he joined the student body. Instead of awaiting the call to clean up the sophobore and senior classmen’s rooms, he went unsummoned to the task of sweeping and straightening up the older boys' quarters. Nelson at that time proved that having been born with a sapphirestudded spoon in his mouth had left him completely unspoiled. Tlie most famous story of his frugal manner of living showws how he is carrying out the Rockefeller tradition ot meagre personal expenditures. Invited out one evening, Nelson discovered to his dismay that he had no clean dress-shirt. When his roommate asked why he did not buy one, youthful Rockefeller explatiied he had already used up

i his month's allowance. He would neither bonow or ■ spend more money as he had ■ promised his parents not to live ' beyond his modest allowance. The situation was ended when his roommate finally located a boy who would lend Nelson his dress shirt for the evening. ( At the recent annual meeting held by Dartmouth’s senior class ' secretaries, young Rockefeller was aske to explain the workings of the new plan for senior fellowships just instituted this year. Nelson had been one of the five seniors chosen to enjoy complete i | freedom during their last year at , college. No requirements, recitai tions or examinations hampered ' this fortunate quintette. In his speech, Nelson declared he had picked economics as the ’ study most likely to benefit him ’ in hie future career. For a month ’, he erplained. he did routine work ■ until he suddenly awoke to the fact that his leisure time could be employed far more intelligently. Sagacious use of spare time he considered most important next to his main line of endeavor. He subsequently studied music and art. making frequent trips to New York to visit museums and concert halls. He even took up painting as he believed understanding the artistic technique would enable him to better appreciate the works of the world's greatest masters. After his graduation from Dartmouth next month. Nelson will marry Mary Todhunter Clark, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Percy Hamilton Clark, of Cynwyd, Pa. On completing an around-the-world honeymoon, he will enter his father’s office at No. 26 Broadway, New York City. 0 •at the Habit—iraae at Home,

Porud Flesh If proud flesh appears on a sore, sprinkle it twice daily with dry granulated sugar. This is a simple remedy, but very effective. Greased Tins Greased muffin tins are handy for baking apples, stuffed tomatoes, stuffed peppers, and for the individual creamed-egg-on-toast dish. Cleaning Cutlery In scouring steel cutlery, try a large cork instead of a cloth. The cork will wear longer and will give better results. Flower Pots Place a layer of small stones in the bottom of the flower pot, or the flower box and it will keep the water from running through too fast.
