The trouble is we get so serious that we forget to laugh and that’s bad. Keep your chin up and your grin on, every < thing is alright. Community sales mean business , action. They bring the buyer and , the seller together and they cause people to think of trading. These ] even^J,are important to a conimuu- , ity and the next one here <lll be ] next Saturday.

to date no one has worked out that problem. Looks as though we would just have to grin and stand the bumps until next year. A local realtor calls attention to the fact that those who have ready money can make a safe and wise investment by investing in real estate at present prices and he is sure right about that. There is no question that you can buy property now for less than it is worth and there is no doubt that one of these days when things get to swinging that you can make a handsome profit. The wise ones buy when the low tide is on and sell when the peak is reached. Daylight saving time is to begin here this year the 25th of this mouth and continue until September 26th. Seems as though something happened to the law which was supposed to have’passed the recent legislature providing for central standard time over the state. Any way Fort Wayne, Auburn and other cities in this section will resume daylight saving soon, so its up to every one to plan accordingly. President Hoover’s campaign for renomination was t opened yesterday when Senator Moses, W. K. Macy of New York, James Francis Burke of Pittsburgh and Postmaster General Brown announced for him. The national machinery will be tuned up and lined up and there is probably little chance for his defeat in the next convention. It is
of course argued and soundly that if the voters approve his admiuis (ration be is entitled to the honor and if they don't iie should carry the load. What will happen in the November election of 1932 will de-1 pend upon what happens during i the next year. Anton Cermak, sou of an immigrant becomes the mayor of Chicago. They don't fool long up there. As soon as a new mayor qualifies lie goes to work. Big Bill will yujjof a trip down the Mississippi and acts like be is glad to un-j load the responsibilities. Cermak i is promising a quick clean-up of the gangsters and many other things that the city has needed tor years and every one is hoping he I will be able to deliver the goods. | He promises to appoint a cabinet of men of unquestioned integrity ] and to start to work at once on i a program that is expected to I make Chicago a clean, safe and attractive place to hold the world's fair. o — ♦ Household Scrapbook By ROBERTA LEE (U.PJ ♦ Smalling Salts Smelling salts can be made 1 y taking one ounce of ammonia or rock volatile breaking it in small pieces putting in a bottle and covering with eau de cologne.
