National Advertising Representatives SCHEERRE, INC. 35 East Wacker Drive, Chicago 415 Lexington Avenue, New York Charter Member The Indiana League of Home Dallies I Have you tried newspaper advertising lately as a tonic for dull business? Men may be out of work, factories may be closed, but schools are "going to open in two weeks and about 4,000,000 children will be engaged in tedious but happy tasks for the next nine months. Just about the time the auto manufacturer thought the rumble (seat was going to help auto sales, along came the long skirt and the girl’s handicap tn trying to be comfortably seated. I It may be a trifle late, but that -does not lessen our desire to extend congratulations to Governor and Mrs. Leslie on their twentieth wedding anniversary, which they ' celebrated yesterday. Mrs. Dwight Morrow, grandmother of the famous Lindbergh Eaglet, is quoted as saying, that Charles •Augustus Lindbergh, Jr., is a good baby. And just what would you expect a loving grandmother to say of a grandchild? If you would have your dog properly attired for fall, a New • York merchant offers the following, ■laced boots for wet weather, blankets, slickers, tweed coats, chintz • draped bed and arubber jacket to | hasten shedding. Something more ‘to worry about. Internal revenue collections on -tobacco amounted to $179,000,000 up to June first of this year, which is just one of the means of revenues for operating the federal government. Income taxes are j first and then revenue from tobacco comes second. Every time , you take a puff, you added some- | thing to the government's income. iTlifcs Lake Wawasee Hotel was raided Sunday night as the Monte . Carlo of Indiana and police interJ rupted the roulette play of about I fifty guests at the hotel. More j than one thousand dollars was on | the, table when the police surprised J the gamblers. A few arrests were J made and many are wondering who ; will take the rap for the crowd. Police officials and other law eni forcement officers of Chicago who I have not been able to clear up the j Lingle murder and numerous other ] crimes, might get in touch with the I author of the story, “Gunman,” . which appeared in a popular magaj zine recently. The author wrote a I story which seemed to depict confi ditions in a big city and his soluj, tion of crimes was almost perfect. Get ready for fall. You may not I have recovered from the torrid ® waves of a few weeks ago and a you'll not be ready for the chilly and brisk days that are just around S the corner unless you plan now. I The cooler days have already I brought a revival in business acf tivities, the farmer of the middle 1 west is more optimistic and you I can make up for lost time by 8 grasping your opportunities. Staying up in the air isn’t the

The public has*become more or less tired of these endurance tests and take for granted that a plane will stay in the air as long as you feed It gasoline and at the same time provide a little food for the pilots. Speak a good word of the other fellow or encourage him in his effort to make good. It has a good effect. It’s said that Sarah Bernhardt, the Divine Sarah of the stage, once said to David Belasco, "Twenty years from now the world will hear of you, Belasco.” The great producer was broke and visited Mme. Bernhardt and through her encouragement she lived to see him reach the pinacle of success in stage productions. Although we are living in peace times, shipments of explosives for the first five months of this year totaled 161,000,000 pounds, which is only ten per cent, less than the export business for abnormal years. Government reports show that the explosives were used in blasting new railroad routes, cutting new waterways and turning up fertile soil on arid lands. To many the thought of an ammunition factory is linked with war, but when there is no war other uses are found for the product. The federal plan to aid in state road work, offering employment and financial return to farmers suffering from the drought, may not be realized if the Indiana highway commission cannot borrow funds. Attorney-General Ogden holds that the highway commission cannot lawfully borrow money in anticipation of the collection of tile gasoline tax next year. In order to secure the federal credit of more than three million dollars, Indiana must match the federal sum, dollar for dollar. If farmers are to be given relief we believe some action should be taken at once and the wheels put in motion towards that end. Two more weeks and the new school year will begin. Young men and young women who might have had the notion not to complete their education, should consider that this is a poor time to give up this advantage and seek employment. Get your education first, prepare to train yourself for something good and you’ll have plenty of time to engage in business and do your stuff. Most any youth of today appreciates the fact that a trained mind is better than one that is not and in business success depends a lot on early training. A high school education is free and is something that money cannot buy after you have received it. o ♦ ■ 1 -- — ”—— ■ ♦ | Household Scrapbook I I By | | ROBERTA LEE ♦ • Ironing Over Buttons Fold aTurkish towel into several thicknesses and lay the garment with the buttons face down.
