♦ ■ ■ - -<' TODAY’S CHUCKLE (U.K) Belfast. — A reward of SSOO has been offered by James Montgomery for information loading to the conviction of the person or persona who killed his pet monkey, brought from a Hindu temple, and left the mutilated body in Montgomery's grounds. ♦ ♦ the public in general are cooperating loyally and wisely. Dr. Bryan of Indiana University favors a constitutional convention in Indiana and perhaps others who are connected with state institutions will but that need not convince the average tax payer who remembers that a lot of things asked for should not be granted. We do not need a million-dollar convention and it we do correct tlie basic laws we should do it by amendments so we know what we are voting for. We presume when Governor Leslie gets the "petters’’ around the state house lawn under control and Mr. Hoover gets his naval treaty all fixed up so we can destroy ships and build new ones and the farm commission gets wheat down to fifty cents a bushel, that times will be considered good by those who have swivel chair Jobs, but how in the heck does that help the man who has to work ten hours a day with his two hands? Mayor Showalter of Wabash is sentencing youths to a term of Sunday school when they get before him and is said to be having good success. He teaches the class himself which makes it easy for him to keep tab on the boys and he figures that if they will attend his class six months he can give them plenty to think about. Its a good plan for one of the faults of the present laws is that most folks have quit trying to convince folks of the evils of intemperance. Lou Taylor who lives in Wabash county was arrested for selling home brew and promptly admitted he had made it and sold it and served it several years but says he did not know there was any law against It for every body in his neighborhood was doing the same thing. However the judge didn't seem to believe the story for he lined Taylor a hundred dollars and sent him to the penal farm sixty days so he would not over-

look the tact that there is such a law when he is released. We motored along state road number 27, north of Decatur the other day and saw a man cutting the weeds along the highway. This lb as it should be. The right-of-way should be kept clean and beautified as much as possible, but it looked to us like much needless effort was being exerted on a job which could be completed in less time. Wliy not burn the grass and weeds? One man could watch quite a stretch of roadway and as the weeds do not come up flush with the road bed there would not b" any danger to motorists. A barel of water could be placed in promimity to the scene of oper-

ation in case the fire did spread beyond the watchman's control. Or a force of men could be put to work for a day or two and all the grass burned at one time, making tiie spread of flames impossible 1 with the extra man force. It occurs ’ to us that costs in labor along the 1 state road could be reduced in this 1 manner, this of course being only a friendly suggestion. 1 -i j Modern Etiquette ROBERTA LEE f | * «J.P) , “ Q How long should a bride’s ® wedding gown be? ?

BYRD. TUNNEL AL SMITH OUT OF SOCIAL LIST America’s “Peerage" Tails to Include Other Notable Figures New York, July 18.-TU.R) —Gene Tunney, Admiral Byrd, Al Smith, and Mrs. Tunney are out of the Social Register, bluest of all blue books, listing America’s "peerage.” These omissions are disclosed today in an article in the American Magazine, which tells of Polly Lauder's name being stricken from the Register when she married Tunney, former heavyweight boxing champion. The action was similar to that taken by the association dictating entrants to the Register at the time Dorothy Benjamin married Enrico Caruso. Her name was dropped, the article declares. Tunney's name was reported to have been included in the Register, but it appeared only in a •suppllment issue to record marriages of persons formerly eligible. Col. Lindbergh's name was entered immediately after his marriage to Anne Morrow. The Hoovers and the Coolidges are entered. Henry Ford nor his son Edsel is listed. Thomas Edison is, but . | Charles M. Schwab is not. Antonio I i Moreno, film actor, achieved a place in the register when he married Mrs. J. M. Danziger. The Social Register, which is governed by a highly secret body of men and women, formerly was published in 27 cities, but now in , 14 cities. New York leads with 15.I 000 families. Chicago, Washington | and Boston list 3,000 families each; I Philadelphia 5,000; San Francisco , and Baltimore 2,500 each; Pittsburgh ami St. Ixiuls 2,000; Buffalo and Cleveland 1,200 and Cincin--1 natl 1,500. Only 41,000 families a out of nearly 4,000,000 in these s cities are listed. i Thirteen cities recently stopped subscribing to the Social Register. These are Providence, St. Paul, o Minneapolis, Det/oit, Seattle, Porte land. Los Angeles. Pasadena, Richmond, Va., Charleston, S. C. Atlanta. Savannah, and New Orleans. In a number of cases the cities withdrew their listings on the ', grounds that their best families ‘ are sufficiently known not to re- . quire ratings. o PREBLE NEWS r Mr. and Mrs. Harry Chalfant ® and daughter of Griffith spent " Tuesday and Wednesday visiting ' relatives and friends in Preble. n Mr. and Mrs. Charles Fuhrman " and family spent Sunday at Indian il j. • Lake. s Miss Dorothy Hoffman of Mish- ". awaka is spending the week visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Milton Hoffman.
