II I. - President Hoover was willing to "give up his regular weekly, fishing "trip if the senate would remain in “session Saturday but they told “ him to go and dig bait so he did. 2 Mr. Hoover may fall down along “some lines but no one will deny he “is a persistent fisherman. ■B “ Republicans of Florida have en- “ dorsed Mr. Hoover as a candidate “to succeed himself but since the “election is two years away they “ may change their minds a time or “ two and if conditions don't improve - we would like to bet a quarter they Zdo. «• — “ While we arc sweltering in this “country France and Germany are “ having March weather It is report“ed.

[■ —< TODAY’S CHUCKLE (U >R > Salem, Ore.—What was Wb- ; llevod to boa cherry picking '• record was set by Everott Williams at the Townsend farm | near here recently when he t picked 100 pounds of cherries, in the boxes, In 12 hours. His - wage for the day's work was r sls. » ♦ i ed this victory as the greatest of j all golfers. He cinched-the Mlnno- • spoils contest by making a forty- * foot putt on the last hole. Bobby 1 is good. The Morrow boom for president has frightened the Hoover followers and they are defending as best they can. with apologies. It perhaps means a stormy two years ahead and a probability that after the wet and dry forces spend themselves, some one else will be sprung as a compromise. The newest endurance contest is being put on by youngsters of the middlewest, some boy out in Kansas having conceived the idea and set up a record. Now every lad in Chicago who can climb is trying to beat his record. They liave it up to forty hours which is longer than we would care to play owl. It is costing the automobile drivers of America a billion dollars for gas taxes and licenses but they are getting something for it, for most of that money is spent on highway improvements and this country is rapidly getting the greatest road system in the world. Its an ill wind that blows nobody good and the kids at Fort Wayne as well as most of their parents are glad the ice cream manufacturers there have engaged in a price war that has brought the price of that luxury down from sixty cents a quart to twenty-five cents. They don't know the cause or care a hang but are hoping that whatever it is. will continue. Looal business men are seriously discussing plans for giving free picture shows in the two local theaters on Wednesday and Thursday evenings, a fine spirit of cooperation and a feature that would be appreciated by every one. If the band concerts could be also arranged for those two nights at hours not to conflict, the feature would soon attract wide attention and do much good. Seems as though the attorney generals of Indiana are just bound to get in the limelight and the last two have done so by making startling statements concerning the prohibition laws. Mr. Gilliom, you remember defended the right to use brandy for medicine and now Mr. Ogden is accusing Indiana police chiefs of not only violating the laws but permitting others to do so. He has reached the denial stage and that's always serious. The California supreme court has held that because a man is drunk does not excuse him being run over by an automobile. A man named Coakley fell on the street while intoxicated and was struck by a car being driven on the wrong side the street! Coakley was killed and his estate sued for damages and will collect. The judge said a drunken man was more in need ot protection than a sober one. o

Claims Cycle Title Kenton, Ohio — (UP) — Ralph Mooney of Kenton has laid claim to another state title, having bested his former cycling record by nearly 200 laps when he circled around the pavement at a street intersection here 1501 times. He claims the non-stop distance covered more than 35 miles. Albert Sherman ot I this city made 1050 circles. Canvassers Barred Little Falls Minn., —(UP) —House to house canvassers trying to sell everything from rugs to magazines and all working their way through college were escorted out of town by police after several youths had passed "smart" remarks to young women on the sidewalk. One periodic group of peddlers was given a particularly emphatic invitation to not come back.
