TODAY’S CHUCKLE ♦ (U.R) ♦ | Exeter. — A tanner has just succeeded in taming a badger ' 1 which he caught two years ago | when the animal was only two weeks old. i ♦- ♦ , lan Sunday School, the event ber Ing rally day. Sam is just as good in this line as he is In bis many I other activities. I •” ■ .'.U 1 JI. JiJI ! This was a busy afternoon for 1 those who like sports. There was I i the Fort Wayne North Side versus Decatur Yellow Jackets in a local tootball game of pnusual interest, the first important college football games to keep In mind, the third world series game of baseball, the Cubs and the White Sox and just a lot of features to keep every one hot. Well it seems like old times to read about the new oil graft scandal about to be sprung by the senate investigating committee. Some one is likely to scold Mr. Nye for this impudence, coming as it dogs, just before an election. The administration supporters are having enough trouble defending now, they no doubt think, without imposing more troubles upon their tired shoulders. The members of the General Electric hand will sponsor an old fashioned Hallow’een celebration here, which means a lot of fun and fine clean amusement for every one. There will be a masquerade parade, dances and entertainment on Liberty Way, furnaces for weinies and marshmallows and a program of real merit. We are glad and we await the complete plans with much interest. Poor old Uncle Jim Watson, veteran of many a political scrap is wearing himself out trying to defend the recent congress. It takes a heap of nerve but Jim has it and so he keeps on saying the last session was a wonderful one and that-the-new tariff law which adds a billion or more to the load that has to he lifted, is the best one yet. Alright Senator, let it go at that, we are ready to vote. Render whatever assistance and support you can to the G. E. band boys who will put on a celebration here on Hallow'een. They are a live bunch and are doing this to show their kindly feeling towards the business men and the people of this community. During the summer they gave a number of free concerts, not asking financial support from the business men as usual, because they realized the fact that this was a year for every one to hold down expense as much as possible. We are sure the splendid spirit of cooperation shown always on their part will cause every one to help them make this proposed event a great success. If we do it will be a happy time for every one. Get ready to enjoy It. o —— CONDOLENCE Wigwam of Pocotaligo Tribe, No. 203, Imp'd O. R. M.

Boris, “bachelor king" and considered Europe's most handsome mon- , arch, is 36. An official communique announcing the engagement said: "Their majesties the king and

queen are pleased to consent to ; the engagement of their daughter, her royal highness the Princess Giovanna, with Boris 111. king of the Bulgarians."
