A TODAY’S CHUCKLE ♦ (UR) < ' St. Helens. —A horse pulling a milk cart bit the radiator cap * off of an automobile, nickered and walked on without any ‘ digestive disturbances. i * " . sixteen-month-old son to a bed post while she went out to fill a date with a man. The babo fell from * the bed and hung suspended by his * arm until his cries brought the I i neighbors in. The woman was ar- ' rested. Yes sir, something ought to be done to her. The Decatur banks are going along nicely, and plans for the reopening of the Old Adamis County are progressing steadily. It won't be lohg now until we will be back financially in this section, which will help every one as much or more than any thing we know of that can happen. You just can’t keep a good community down. Senator Fess, acting national republican chairman, declares he will put on a campaign disregarding prosperity and prohibition. Now that's something but the senator probably forgets that after al! he can talk about the London naval treaty and Rapidan as a fishing camp all he pleases, but the folks will talk about what they want to. Captain Coste and Maurice Bellonte, first aviators to fly across the Atlantic from the east to the west, are now being showered with attentions in this country. They will tour this country, leaving New York today for Dallas, Texas, will return for a visit at the White House and will be given a splendid welcome every where. This country loves heroes and we have not forgotten the wonderful time France showed Lindbergh when he landed there. Some folks think the good times will be coming back soon now. while others, more pessimistic, declare it will not come for a year or two. We figure its largely up to individuals which go to make up a community. If we all buckle down to doing things and stay with it until the job is complete, we can have the best times the next few months we have had in a long time. And that’s the truth. The crops here are better than average in most cases and the beet crop is unusually large. That means a long run at the factory, employment of two or three hundred men, checks going out to the farmers and that coupled with some building and some other activities, should provide enough for all of us to get by with and have a little to put away. As Governor Leslie’s car broke the ribbon Monday that had kept the populace off the Dale highway in southern Indiana, ten thousand people in cars galore followed in one of the greatest road openings we have ever had in Indiana. The occasion opened up forteen miles of improved roadway in that part of the state. Floats, with queens aboard, state highway officials and state house officials were among the two miles of autos that traversed the new roadway, as the people along the line of march applauded. It was a great occasion, and only shows bow lax we were up this way when the Reiffsburg bridge was opened to traffic. We could have had a wonderful time, and didn’t. —Bluffton Banner. 0 Martin Jaberg of the firm of Steelo and Jaberg made a business trip to the south part of the county this morning. Q Greater Beauty For Lovely Women Beauty's first requisite—skin perfection. Thus, the fairest and smartest use MELLO-GLO Face Powder that spreads more smoothly and produces a youthful bloom. Its new French process makes MELLO-GLO stay on longer and bans the shiny nose. Pure! Prej vents pastiness, flakiness, irrita- , tlon and large pores. Use MELLOGLO.

FRENCH COLONY TRADE TOTALS SHOW GROWTH Possessions Increase Both Imports And Exports During Year linlted Press Staff Correspondent Paris, Sept. 4—(UP)— France's wide flung colonies and protectorates for whose safoty Franco ami Italy locked swords at London Naval conference last year did a to'ul business in excess of J 1,375,000.000 and promise to do even better this year. France rapidly is becoming colony conscious, and for the first time since the war even the popular newspapers try to outdo the financial and economic journals in giving spot news and economic reports from French colonies and mandated territories. The total foreign commerce of France's colonies is a tidy nest egg which will be hatched into even greater numbers when Parliament improves colonial loans totalling more than $162,000,000 when it resumes its sittings in October. Roughly the Imports of France's Aplonies and mandated teritories last year was $787,440,000, while exports totalled approximately $587, 040,000. Imports showed a healthy increase over 1928 figures, while exports remained about stationery. Algeria, the richest and most prized of French colonies last year did a total foreign commerce of more than $384,000,000 which was a 6% per cent increase over the previous year. Not only does Algeria

buy many French products but it produces excellen wine, wheat, olives and dates which art now on the world market. In several commodities, especially In wine and oliveaoil, she is a direct competitor of French exporters. Due to a bad rice crop in 1928, Indo china last year was in the red column for more than $35,500,000 the only French colony which showed a great diinluultion In its for--1 eign trade. The poor business condition salso are attributed to internal trouble and native uprisings. On the whole France’s colonies did $64,000,000 better* businesH last year than they did in 1928. It is Interesting to note that the tiny ' French islands, Saint Pierre and i Miquelone, which have often been accused ol being the warhouse for I liquor smuggling into the United i States, have had a phenominal ini crease in imports and exports, im-, porting nearly $8,880,000 worth of igods and exporting practically the > same amount.
