You may be wealthy and yet have no credit. Credit is the willingness to pay promptly. If you pay your bills promptly when they are due, your credit is good. Wealth has nothing to do with it. Keeping your word — keeping ' faith with those who trust you—that is the whole thing. Kei p your credit good by paying your bills promptly. Paying bills promptly is a pleasure. A man feels good when the last check is written and he knows he owes no one a cent. Paying bills promptly is an eventual economy. Your merchant needs cash. If he does not get it from you promptly he must borrow it at current rates of interest. The interest your merchant pays is an overhead charge which finds its way into the retail prices of his merchandise. Paying bills promptly is a courteous return for a courtesy rendered. The convenience of a charge account is one which the merchant is glad to offer people with good credit. When yon fulfill your part -of the agreement, you are returning the courtesy. Our whole civilization rests upon the*fact that the average man does ” |>ay his bills promptly. If men could not trust one another your **’ own business or the business of - the firm which employs you possibly could not exist. Pay your bills promptly. If necessary negotiate a loan at your bank in order to do this. Clean your credit slate. Do the right thing. Do it NOW.—The Detroit Times. We are hoping that much good will come from todays conference of the president and the governors called to discuss plans for aiding those farmers in the drought districts and that immediate action will follow. Mr, Wickersham, chairman of the regular drought committee, might give some valuable information, but it takes him so long to make up a report that we are afraid he would recommend sending umbrellas to the districts effected by the dry weather. J. 11. Ross, 83, has been railroading 67 years, the last 14 as a conductor of the Chicago, Indianapolis and Louisville railroad. During this time, his principal run has been from Chicago to French Lick

TODAY’S CHUCKLE ♦ ♦ Aldershot,Eng.—"It Is really slmple.Jt Is child's play,” said John Masher, 25, sentenced to three months hard labor for moulding counterfeit coins | from plaster of Paris loft in his house by builders. ♦—' - « Springs, Ind. Ross says in the old days before prohibition came, he often had whole Pullman cars loaded with drunks going to the springs to sober up. Now he doesn't notice one drunk on his train where he used to carry 100. Claude Hall of Muncie, Democratic candidate for congress, a high grade gentleman whom you will like and who if elected to congress next November, will serve you conscientiously and honestly, visited here last evening, arranging for a half dozen speaking dates In Adams county when the campaign opens. He has an earnest message that ought to interest every voter. Germany is going to try to wipe out one-fourth of its big deficit by taxing bachelors and unmarried women. In looking around for ways of balancing the budget, which is 480,000,000 marks or approximately $100,000,000 short of its needs, Chancellor Bruenlng and his cabinet devised the tax on unmarried adults which is expected to bring in $25,000,000 annually. Snap into things. Ever stop to think what twenty-five, fifty or a hundred red blooded citizens with a little nerve and a few dollars could do any time they wanted to for a community? They could make things fairly hum in a week. Why wait for the after while? Do it now and make every body happy. Secretary Fifield says the state crime bureau knows the hangouts in Indiana of the Chicago racketeers but doesn't believe they mean any harm. Just the same if the commission is wise they will serve notice on them to hike back to their rendevous hotfoot. Why wait until they get in their work before you lock the doors? The mayor of New York City has signed an ordinance that forbids the placing of radio loud speakers out of doors anywhere within the city limits. It also prohibits loud speakers anywhere within 150 feet of a school, court house, church or hospital. Fires in dormitories at Smith College, caused by cigarets in waste baskets, have brought on a rule restricting smoking to certain fireproof rooms. President Neilson, of Smith, says. "The trouble is, my dear young ladies, you do not smoke like gentlemen." Virgil Myers, the lad who helped rob the Stroh bank last Saturday, today began a ten-year sentence in prison. That's speedy justice and what each and every one of the bandits ought to get promptly. Let's stop it. They say the dry weather killed off most of the rag weeds along with other vegetation which is not making the hay fever patients one bit mad as the sneezing season approaches. We don't know whether it was the drouth or the drought which burned up the corn but since there is only a 60% crop in Indiana it must be charged to one or the other. Take your choice.

GERMANY RANKS THIRD ON LIST OF U. S. TRADING Highly Developed Export Sales Organizations Play Important ’’art Washington, Anug. 14—(UP) — Highly developed local export sales organizations and in increasing number of branch factories have played an important part in the development of America’s growing trade with Germany, now rated as our third largest world market. In building up to an average annual trade of $470,000,(8)0, American industries have perfected an ' efficient and highly organized distribution system in Germany. There are today about 1.500 American . companies represented in the counl try, with which, a little more than 10 years ago, we were at war. Altogether. American industries now maintain 79 branches in Germany, exclusive of German factories which have passed entirely into control of American interests, with several others scheduled for erection during 1930-31, according to reports received at the Commerce Department from its Berlin office. American subsidiaries in Germany also have been an important .actor in developing this immense trade. Supplemented by a number of American firms maintaining offices in Germany, these subsidiaries distribute extensively practically the same lines of commodities sold in the United States. American manufacturing in Germany is confined mainly to assembling and finishing imported products. The plants are largely cen-1 tered in the neighborhood of a few large cities, although there has been a marked tendency lately to establish factories turning out bulky products on the Rhineland near the coal and steel industries and where the benefits of water transportation may be hail. Seventy five per cent of our trade with Germany consists of raw colon. staple foodstuffs, raw materials including grain, flour, petroleum, at?., and metals. The remainder is made np of a wide range of miscellaneous manufactured and semi finished products, marketed through out the country. —-o Is Named Editor Indianapolis Aug,. 14 — (UP) — Harlan Hadley, Danville, Ind., was appointed editor of the community edition of the Butler Collegian, daily paper published by the journalism ’ department. Butler University. The community edition of the paper is issued every Thursday and is devoted to news of interest to resi--1 dents living near the University instead of the college students themselves. It has a circulation of ,10,000 1 copies. Relief From Curse Os Constipation A Battie ( reek physician says. “Constipation is responsible for t more misery than any other t cause.” I But immediate relief has been i found. A tablet called Rexall Ord erlies has been discovered. This tablet attracts water from the sys- , tern into the lazy, dry, evacuating , bowel called the colon. The water loosens the dry food waste and causes a gentle, thorough, natural movement without forming a habit . or ever increasing the dose. ’ Stop suffering from constipation.

LONDON PHONE GIRLS SPEAK IN MANY TONGUES Extension of Communications Network Soon to Girdle Entire Globe London, Aug. 14—'(UP)—“Allo, Parts, donez mol Louvre quarentesept dix-neuf. sll vous plait.” “Was haben sie gesagt, Berlin?" "Attention. Madrid, Londres esta listo. “Hello, Bombay Central, put this call through to Burma, please.’’ "Tokio? Ohio, hanzi!"

Not a mixed gril of try-ajid-learn 1 ft-yourself language lessons but a leaf from the diary of a telephone operator. London talks to almost everybody these days, only three and a half years after the first call from here to New York, and with the extension of telephone service ■ to Japan, South Africa, India, Australia. and New Zealand, this city ' will become the hub of the teiphone system encircling the earth. Work already has been started on extension of service from Australia to New Zealand which will bring an additional 180000 phones on to the international circuit. Negotiations are in progress for ' a service to India which can start 1 operation in a few months after the preliminary work is completed. Egypt can join the international link any time she feels like it and extensions *o Palestine and Trans- - would be the next logical development. In Berlin the Telefnnken company is experimenting with a radio telephone service to Tokio which means that London can "plug in” if the connection is permanently establishe the German organigation already has established a service to South America and plans to install a transmitter in Nanking to enable Chinese to sit in braugartens and chat with the old folks at home. When South Africa is brought infa the worldwide hookup there will be approximately only 128,000 tele phones in Asia, and a few thousands in Africa and Oceania outsid ■ the international telephonic alliance. The service from London a round the world will be virtually complete in a few months. Even small isolated islands have lost that loeiing of being distinctly out of touch with the rest of the world. The Channel Islands will be connected with the mainland by the end of the year. Already the Grecian islands can call up Athens and Rarotonga chats with Wellington. The increasing habit of one part of 'he world wishing to talk to an other part thousands of miles away is responsible for the fact that oveo 96 per cent of the world's telephones aie connected with each other. It is estimated that civilization has produced some 34,000,000 transmitters and an equal number of receivers. If g»t the telephone wires in the world were laid end to end they would no doubt stretch for quite a way. But not important is the fact that London's future telephone operators will have to add Japanese and Indian to their linquistic.ac complishinents. o Mr. and Mrs. Gale Hook, Mrs. J. L. Hook, and Miss Mary Fennig of Willshire, Ohio were shoppers in his city Wednesday.
