I some thing, how they shall do it jand what they must pay for It. Walter Myers, speaker of the house of representatives and one of the outstanding leaders and I brilliant orators ot the state, has t j been selected to give the principal address at the mid-winter meeting ■ of the Indiana Democratic Editorial Association at Indianapolis on Ihe night, of February 19th. These I i events are always of great interest 1 and enthusiasm usually reaches a i i j high peak. This years event will '' be presided over by Dick Hellen of , this city, who is concluding his term as president of the organization. Mayor Krick favors the improvement of the lower floor of the city hall so rooms can be arranged for the city clerk and city treasurer, a splendid thing to do and this spring will be the time to do it. This will mean additional employment and will provide a very necessary con- ' venlence for the public. The buildling will include a show room for electrical appliances, offices for I the city water works and electric j light department and will make it possible for the public to attend to I ■ city business without climbing a I ! flight of stairs. Its a sensible sug1 gestion and deserving of support. Regime O'Normalcy is dead. He | was born and sowed his wild oats j under Harding. He flourished and the cat got his tongue under Coolidge. He was seized with new delusions of grandeur under Hoover. Climbing on the highest tariff wall, he grandly exclaimed, "I am Humpty Dumpty." His impersonation of that character was com-j plete. When they had gathered up the pieces and placed them in the ambulance, he said, "Health is just around the corner. I shall be al! light within 60 days.’’ Those were his last words. Despite the spelling of his name, he was not Irish. i Hr- had no sense of humor. In politics, he was always a RepubliI can. He leaves none to mourn his loss. «ilis ashes will be given for , ! farm relief.—Fort Wayne JournalGazette. Have you ever met Rev. Harry i Nyce, pastor of the Presbyterian | church of Peru, Indiana? If not, you have missed something. For thirty-eight years he has been in ■ one place, and eyerybody knows him for miles around, and what is I always good to say, everyone who knows him is his friend, loves him ! as a man and respects his work as a clergyman. That he has the value of pure gold everyone of his parishioners will tell you and he has enough of the alloy in his comI position to make him wear well. By this alloy in this abuse is meant practical, ,-ommon sense, charity and tolerance. Rsv. Nyce graduated from Y)berlin, studied in Germany, ami went to Pent. In 1996 his congregation erected a hand- . some new church and bought a' manse. His kind philosophy and i | goc ness of heart has kept him | young and enabled him to keep up I the high standard of his sermons. <)f the nine elders who invited Rev. , Nyce to Peru, not one is now livJng.—Hartford City News. 0 _— ’ a H ! In The Legislature 50 Years Ago By United Press a e' i Among problems confronting legislators of 50 years ago was that of grazing livestock which owners allowed to run at large. Often considerable damage was done to neighboring crops by herds of cows amt sheep. To solve the problem, Senator Poindexter introduced a bill to prohibit running at large of livestock. The public school library question was placed before the senators in petitions of several thousand Evansville. Richmond, Fort Wayne ’ and South Bend residents, asking enastment of a law for public libraI i ries in connection with free school I .systems in towns of more than 115,000. o i BARGAINS; — Bargains in Living lie-.m, Dining Boom suits, mat tresses and rugs.

“Mme. J u 1 i e,” the forthcoming talkie version of Irving K. Davis’ play. It seems that Mary didn’t like the role of the French mannequin heroine, so studio officials agreed to get someone else to play it. At this writ-

ing, the dynam- Damita ic Lily has not yet affixed her signature to the contract, but it is drawn up and she is said to be agreeable. “Mme. Julie” is the story of a young French girl who marries a man much older than herself (0. P. Heggie, in the film), and who subsequently falls in love with his son. • Somewhere in this mix-up doubtless lurks a happy ending. RUIV£)R SMASHED. The elusive Al Capone has been rumored to be in Hollywood. Now comes Hal Roach with an indignant denial that Al will direct “Our Gang” Comedies. HOLLYWOOD SHORT STORY. In the show window of a secondhand store near the Paramount studio is displayed a director’s chair. Formerly it was priced $6. A line is drawn through this and the card now reads: “Sale price, $4.” NATIVES ARE HOMESICK. Hollywood has failed to impress the two natives who were brought back from Africa with the “Trader Horn" company. Aside from a few scattered words their English consists of the memorized sentences: “Do you know when we go home?" They repeat it with pathetic frequency. It seems that the big buildings don’t mean a thing to these ebony actors. Durtng their stay here they have been most taken by an ice cream stand, made like a freezer, with a huge crank that is perpetually turning. Another of their big thrills was to

Even after the announcement that Bert Wheeler would star individually in “Too Many Cooks,” Radio Pictures may change its plans about breaking up the team of Wheeler and Woolsey. This is one of the things that William Le Baron will discuss in New York. In the meanwhile, Douglas MacLean is going rgiht on getting his production ready. LATEST GOSSIP.
