Another step Is to be taken by the government towards the build* I Ing of a new postoffice. Postmaster Graham has received notice that bids will be received July 29th for a survey of the grounds which must be done within fifteen days. Then will come the letting of the contract and work should start tills fall. It won’t be long now. The republican politicians of Indiana are mustering their forces tor the campaign, going out with the same old hurrah that they hope will convince the people that what has happened, didn't and if it did it was the fault of the democrats. Believe it if you wish to, but please don’t expect a majority to be so easy. Root and Wabash townships have forwarded petitions here carrying sufficient names to assure establishment of the county library plan so far as those units are concerned and reports are that in every township the work is going forward nicely. Its a splendid movement and one that none will ever regret we are sure. Congratulations to both Walter Krick and Guy Brown, who have received promotions in their lifework as teachers. Mr. Krick has been elected principal of the schools of Van Wert, Ohio, while Mr. Brown who for many years has served as principal at the Central school here has now been made general supervisor. Both are excellent school men, well prepared and well trained and both will easily make good. They are studying the wheat price crisis we are informed but if they only study it and do nothing the results won’t be much. They have been claiming to study the farm problem for the past half dozen years but up to date the only results have been higher tariffs and a continual lowering of farm prices without much adjustment of costs on those articles the farmer must buy. Looks as though it was time some one got down to business and gave the proposition some study and some action and we hope Mr. Hoover can “engineer’’ it. Detroit will have an interesting election next Tuesday when the voters will decide whether or not Mayor Bowles shall be removed from his office. The city has been having so much crime recently that they bid fair to take the belt away from Chicago. All the newspapers are opposing Bowles and the move to oust him is backed by a committee of the best citizens of the town. It is the first election of this kind in any of the larger cities and the results will be awaited with interest by millions of people all over the country who. believe in good government. Announcement from Washington is that so soon as the senate ratifies that treaty and lights out for home Mr. Hoover will give himself the joy of a vacation, touring points west. Purpose to restrict himself Io a quite limited number of speeches is ascribed to Mr. Hoover. In these he will review the work of congress. It may be that Mr.

Hoover yearns for the broad open spaces and the ready and unfeigned hospitality of their generous people. Or he may conceive it his duty as titular head of his party to get out and attempt to fill an undeniable breach in the regions where the breach is widest. Or he may fancy some public general utterances are expected from him at this time. If Mr. Hoover were to solicit our advice we should counsel him to go get him a column, as Cal Coolidge has done, and do his daily stunt sitting on a stump under the umbrageous trees which lean over the bosky banks of the llapidan. He can do it that way fine, keep cool, avoid crowds and say his sayings without compulsions to digress. If Mr. Hoover betakes himself to the wheatlands west of the great river, agriculturists will want to know the why and wherefore of wheat selling at halt a dollar or thereabouts at the home elevator. Mr. Hoover’s farm board has no explanation. We doubt that Mr. Hoover will find one. Be a colyumist, Mr. Hoover; be a colyumist. it's easy, pays well and is safer. — Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette. o BIG FEATURES OF RADIO | i 1 • ♦ Wednesday’s 5 Best Radio Features Copyright 1930 by UP.

'Fiddle Flirtation Is Cause of Court Action Evansville, Ind., July 16—(UP) A “fiddle flirtation” that ended in a blow on the nose for the musical wooer was related in Evansville city court by Thomas Connolly, <O, who was cast as the irate husband. Connolly was charged with assault and battery upon James Oakley. 25, but after Oakley told his side of the story, the charges were dismissed by Special Judge Ollie Reeves. Oakley who lives across the street from the Connollys, would sit on his front porch and watch Mrs. Connolly, 36. mther of three children, moving about in her front yard, it was charged. “Then he would go in the house and get out his fiddle,' Connolly said. "He'd play 'l'm Watching You’ until the whole neighborhood could hear. "Mrs. Connolly would walk down the street. ‘Wherever You Go, I'm Following You,” were the strains Oakley would play. "He'd mix these up with something like ‘l'm in Love, So in Love, Love Me.’ That's what made me the maddest. “After about three weeks of this I got good and mad, so I went over and asked him if he was flirting with Tny wife." Oakley denied that he was, according to witnesses, but Mrs. Connolly said that he was. “So 1 just naturally smacked him a couple," Connolly said. Oakley had Connolly arrested on assault and battery charges. Special Judge Reeves lectured all parties concerned when he dismissed charges against Connolly and cautioned Oakley to be careful in his selection of violin pieces in the future. o When we consider how easily anything as big as a circus kin be gathered up and moved before daylight it hain t surprisin' we miss a wheelbarrow, or police dog, or auto now an’ then.
