We are coming through with fewer casualties than in most sections of the country. It won't be long now until the kiddies will be interested in Santa Claus and Christmas and we have a tip that the old boy will be here in person this year. Senator Cole Blease of South Carolina and Senator Joseph Ransdell of Louisiana tasted defeat in the primaries this week and will pass out of the political picture for which there will not be great regret. Cleveland will try a new stunt which may in time revolutionize the school system of this country. One teacher will instruct a class of 250 by radio and the experiment is being watched by all who are interested in the ever growing cost of the present system of education. The parade of cattle and horses convinced every one that Adams county has the finest live stock to be found any where. The display here is equal to most state fatrs. Yep, we have ’em, also we have the best people, the best farms, the best children, the best every thing that goes to make the best community—and we have that too and we admit it. The flower show, the pet stock, the swine, horses and cattle, the dogs and the rabbits, the poultry and all the exhibits are wonderful and show that Adams county is far from destitute. You will be pleased and surprised if you visit the various places. Don't overlook the woman's department in the Hensley building and the fruits and vegetables in the Niblick block.

TODAY’S CHUCKLE ♦ —(u.pj <■ Amarsham, (Rucks), Eng.—A j signalman who is a beekeeper enticed a swarm of bees Into | a hive in order that the train I could proceed. — » olds riends and there was no hap- 1 pier spot to bet ound than the old settlers gathering on the court house grounds yesterday afternoon. It was a great part of the program and while it may not have interested ail it was mighty pleasant for those who do enjoy these sentimental affairs. Arthur Sapp of Huntington gave the principal address at the Old Settlers meeting yesterday and pleased the crowd. He told of the hardships of the early pioneers of this country and how they met the trials of disease and of securing a living, how they built and how they lived bravely and so clean as to bring forth the greatest country and the greatest people in the w orld. C. J. Lutz and the entire program was an interesting one. Stopping the professionals on midway from fleecing the people is a more difficult job than you think, unless you have had experience. These men make all kinds of promises and even agree to leave town but in a few minutes are back on the job. Sheriff Hollingsworth and police have ordered them to quit and notified them that unless they do he will lock them up and are supported by the Legion boys. That’s the kind of language they understand and it ought to be effective. Do you know that the decay of every great nation was preceded by a long period of drought? That is a matter of history and has been brought up again by the recent severe dry spell. Perhaps we are not to that point but the fact is well proven that for the past fifty years, since the forests were cleared away the aridity has increased. The answer perhaps is to reforest the country, which ought to be done for other reasons any way. There is a general trend that way and we hope it grows and continues for the next decade or two and then keeps on ever afterward and as Andy says, even after that. As Maine goes so goes Pennsylvania, or words to that effect. The September elections in the Pine Tree state Monday resulted in a "sweeping” Republican victory. And here be it noted that Maine Republicans never merely get a majority and elect their ticket normally as Republicans in other states do. Either they swiep or it's a dead heat and such are not of record. With a rather light vote and varying majorities Maine, then, went hell-bent again on Mopday. That means what it meant two years ago and four and every two years far back into the long ago. Wetlo ror not the portent of Maine is that next November the remainder of the country will go the same way next November itself will have to disclose. Mostly the country has followed Maine, but occasionally has not, and once when Maine went worse than hellbent in September by electing a Democratic governor, the confounded Republicans carried the country for president. So it may be seen that as an indicator Maine points an erratic needle. If Monday's election in Maine be taken to indicate that labor is doing its six days a week regularly and plenty of it, that farmers are relieved and uncomplaining, that business has Anally turned the corner and is coming on or that prohibition is the establishment and well ratified, there may be occasion to revise indications the first Wednesday after the first Monday of November. — Fort Wayne JournalGazette.

PRESIDENT NOT COMMITTED ON DRY QUESTION (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONK] affected by the pronouncement yesterday of Governor FTanklln D. Roosevelt of New York In favor of repeal of the eighteenth amendment, Roosevelt Is generally regarded here as the outstanding candidate at this time for the 1932 Democratic presidential nomination. It had been expected that he would be for modification of the dry law, but his letter to Senator Wagner, Dem.. N.Y., urging repeal came as a surprise. The letter is expected to have an immediate effect upon the forthcoming Republican convention. It may have a further effect upon the 1932 race. Dry southern Democrats may be confronted by much the same situation they encountered at Houston in 1928 an outstanding anti-prohibitionist as the leading candidate. What Mr. Hoover's position will be in 1932 probably will be known more clearly after the Wickersham law enforcement commission issues Its report, possibly in December. Additional interest was shown here in Roosevelt’s letter to Wagner because of the similarity In the stand of the New York governor and that taken by Ambassador JDwight W. Morrow, Republican senatorial candidate in New Jersey. Like Roosevelt, Morrow also has been discussed widely as a possible presidential candidate in 1932. Roosevelt’s position in favoring h state liquor control program is | similar in major points to that assumed by Morrow in his campaign for the New Jersey nomination. Some observers foresaw the possibility that efforts may. lie made to force both parties to adopt Endorsed By Beautiful Women Beauties who guard their complexions use MELLO-GLO Face Powder only.
