I,noks as though something would I have to be done yet to solve the prohibition question. Well, if we ever do get it settled it is going to ' deprive about 123,000,000 of their ! favorite theme to argue about. George Adams, who killed two ' prohibition officers lias gone to prison, a new trial not being asked. He probably considers himself lucky and doesn't care to take another chance even if he could get it.! Judge thinks that whatever the' governor of North Carolina said to I the governor of South Carolina it couldn t have been as interesting as what the governor of Louisiana is saying to the governor of Louis-: iana. The government nor any organ-! ization or individual is going to ! take you out of the depression. ■ You will have to get yourself out | and you can only do that by work- | ing harder, advertising and keep-' ing everlastingly on the job. Automobile accidents continue | and we presume they will for a [ long time to come, something hap-! pening each day which causta us I to determine we will be more care-1 fill. Stop, look and listen is still a splendid warning. It used to re-1 fer only to railways but now it ap- ! plies to every highway. What the President is saying to I the foreign diplomats calling on , him these days remains as a great | a secret as what the catcher says to the pitcher when the home team gets in a tight place and lie walks down to hand him the hall and we fear its aliout as important in the . actual settlement of the serious world problems. Ihe stock market is a queer animal. When the price of farm 1 products advanced a couple of i weeks ago, the stocks stood still a 1 day or two to aeo what was going;] Boys—with Pimply Faces Here's Quick Help for You! Here’s the way to get rid es those embarrassing pimples in short order. Just bathe your face with soap and hot water—Just im hot as you can stand. Th-m apply Moone’a Emerald Oil. Massage it gently Into tlie skin. Leave a little of the oil on your skin all night. In the morning, repeat the treatment, hut not quite so strenuously. In a few days you'll see an amazing difference—not a pimple on your face! But don’t waste any time just thinking alviut it—get right after those ugly, disfiguring pimples today.

|to happen and then at the first .sign of a drop in grain prices, the markets began to sag and it looks now as though they were trying to find a new low peg to hang on. Henry Ford says prosperity is tj coming and that this country would ;be better off without any tariffs. >' Now figure that oirt. He has al- | ways supported a tariff, had what- ; I ever advantages could be thus pro- • jVided, but admits now it won’t cure | the pr?sent ailment. Yet republii can newspapers and Senator Wati son insist it ought to be made still | higher. He says there are parts of | the country where they don’t know j the depression is on. Alright, Mr. Ford, we'll tit. Where? Aliout five thousand acres is necessary to complete the program of those trying to secure pledges tor 10.000 to 12,000 acres as suggested a couple of weeks ago by Mr. Gallagher of Toledo and if this is done it is believed the factory i will again be operated next year. | I’his acreage should he secured ! within a dozen miles radius of Dej catur for it is certainly advantageous to have a guaranteed crop j these days together with a fifty- . fifty agreement which practically makes the farmer a partner in the profits. Let’s don't wait too long about this matter for its important jto tlie farmers, the merchants ami j every one else here. Fourteen young men have met (loath as a result of injuries on foot- ! ball fields either in practise or j games this season. That’s a record, so serious that it requires serious j consideration. Football .is a great i game requiring strength, courage .and brains but there is something wrong with the rules it seems when so many splendid young men are i killed in one season. The public I would regret exceedingly to have - football barred because of its bru- , tality but if this average is continued a year or two, that same public will prefer giving up the sport thus furnished. ' Lieutenaut Edgar Bush and William Settle led a parade of farmers ito tlie state house yesterday to urge the Governor to call a special j session of the legislature to enact la tax relief measure, only to find .the Governor is in Boston to make I a speech on “state supervision of j government expenditures." Seems as though they should have made an appointment on so important a matter but perhaps that would have ruined the opportunity for a | grandstand parade. The Governor does not hesitate to say that he is i not in favor of a special session I i because he doesn’t feel it would get any where but Ed and Bill just [couldn't pass up this splendid op- : portunity to show off. o ♦ ; * Modern Etiquette —by— | ROBERTA LEE ♦ (U.R) —♦ Q.

POWDERED COAL i RUNS ENGINE NEW YORK -(U.R) An internal combustion engine that uses powdered coal as a fuel, instead of gas 1 or fuel oil, will he described at I the Third International Confer-j cure on hituminus coal, which will open in Pittsburgh today under] tlie auspices of tlie Carnegie Insti-i lute of Technology. Tlie inventor of the engine. Rudolf Pawlikowski a German engineer. and president of the Kosmos | Engine Works, Gorlitz has written a paper describing the engine. The paper will be read by Prof. Willibald Trinks of tlie Carnegie Tech faculty, who visited Pawlikowski. Powdered coal is not the only fuel on which tlie new engine, known as the Kupa motor, will operate. According to Professor , Trinks, the inventor lias success-j fully operated the engine on vari-j ous vegetable meals. These meals I may be produced by the farmer j himself from plant residues, corn stalks, leaves, pine needles, rice, j coffee, hulls, or from vegetable' residues of oil factories. An 80-h.p. Rupa motor was op- j elated on tke extraction residues and ground kernels from the : manufacture of olive’ oil. Wood meal may also successfully he used for fuel, the inventor says.
