Corn and oats are coming along nicely and the farmers are busy and hopeful. Senator Simmons of North Carolina was defeated for renomination in the primaries by 62.000 votes, which proves that there are a few good Democrats in the southern state. The Democrats are holding their state convention this week and tomorrow nominations for secretary of state and other state officers will be made., There are many candidates for each office, indicative of the trend in Indiana this year. Eari Sande. favorite jockey, won another race Saturday when he captured the famous Bellmont purse in New York. This is his second victory this spring with Gallant Fox and proves his ability as a master in the saddle. Vacation days are here and the boys and girls are urged to use a little caution. Have a good time, play, exercise, but don't do anything which might result in injury or death. Keep away from treacherous sandpits, don't try to hop the trains and when riding the bicycle keep out of heavy traffic. Wabash is entertaining the veterans of the Civil war and the few hundred survivors who fought for the Union in the days of '6l are gathering there for the annual meet. It will be a great reunion for the boys, but the sad thing is it Will be the last one for many of the old soldiers to swap yarns about camp fire days. — Henry Ford in a recent article stated that it “wasn't lack of business which ruined the stock market, but man's neglect of business'' which brought about tire break. Might be some truth in it. but many will agree that the stock market business was a game of tiding to reach high score and wEen that point was reached they had to start all over again.

As the state of Indiana builds through roads, making it easy to 1 truck freight from one end of the country to the other, out go the railroads. The last road to be ordered torn up is the traction line from Muncie to Portland, state | road 27, recently completed, being given as the cause. This state tax commission might take a glancing look at this situation, even though it do no good. Railroads are among our very heavy taxpayers. — Bluffton News-Banner. The people of the little kingdom of Rumania have a new king. Prince Carol returned to Bucharest last week and yesterday was crowned king. To Americans the situation is almost unbelievable. A wayward boy, fickle and woman crazy now is the ruler of the country. Throwing aside his birthright for a red haired damsel five years ago Prince Carol left his fatherland and lived with the woman in Paris. Now he returns in triumph and becomes the example for his seventeen million subjects. He must have been a believer in the old proverb, “the king can do no wrong.” We’d hate to follow King Carol and to us his court would be complete if he appointed Harry Thaw.

U. S. Senator Morris Sheppard,; author of the Eighteenth Amendment. started with a demand for prosecution of the liquor buyer as well as seller. This took away F whatever moistness attached from; his support of Alfred E. Smith and kept him without serious oppostion on that ground. Former Congressman R. L. Henry announced against Sheppard on a wet platform. la the governor's race Ma Ferguson is out with a demand that every officer take with his oath of office an affidavit that he has been personally dry for six months. She! would also require that oath of the I judge, sheriff, district attorney audi jurors who try liquor charges. Dan Moody beat her to it a few < hours by announcing that he will offer a reward this September when colleges reopen for detection of bootleggers who sell to students. Former National Committeeman Thomas B. Love is making his campaign on the platform that be was too conscientiously dry to stand Alfred E. Smith and John J. Raskob. so voted for Hoover.

fRENCHBEAUTY STAGE DARLING WEDS EGYPTIAN Marie Bell to Return to Comedie Francaise, However By Martha Gellborn (United Press Staff Correspondent) Paris, June 9 —(UP) —More romantic than her roles ou stage and screen, is the marriage of Marie Bell to the cotton king of Egypt, Whaba Barsoum Pacha. Marie Bell is one of the cherished stars of the capital She is a form of theatre paradox, being at once an actress In the Comedie Francaise — that stronghold of French dramatic traditions —and a screen star whose pictures are modern to the last degree. Miss Ben is of average heighth, her hair is brown and long. Her eyes are brown, too, their brightness alluringly shaded by long thick lashes. It is easy to understand why the young Egyptian millionaire followed the Comedie Francaise troup during its entire Egyptian tour. It is easy to understand why he took the same boat back to Europe. And It does not entirely baffle comprehension that he should have insisted, persistently and successfully, that once in London —the lovely actress marry him. Miss Bell at the moment is back in Alexandria, in the sumptuous villa of her husband. It is said that she will return to France shortly to continue with her stage career. Apparently Whaba Barsoum is not such a pacha that he intends to forbid his talented wife from continuing her work. French theatre-goers doubtless would declare a piivate war on him, if he did.

The Complete Guide - Book IF YOU’VE been a tourist in foreign lands, you've probably come to have a high regard for one or another of the standard guide-books. Surrounded by strange scenes, strange names, and with your time limited, you have turned with relief to any volume which tells you on good authority where to go and what to do. Consider your ordinary shopping tours in the same light. Without an up-to-date guide-book of merchandise appearing daily within the pages of this newspaper, your most casual trip to the stores would be more or less like a ramble in foreign countries. We’re speaking of the advertisements, of course. If it weren’t for the advertisements you would be a stranger in the market, surrounded by strange names, strange brands. Buying would be guessing, unless you tested every article you wanted before you bought it. As it is, you can make up your shopping list in a few minutes, and buy with confidence instead of suspicion—knowing what you’re getting—knowing that consistently advertised goods must maintain standard quality.
