The Repub’ican cry now is, “Mr. Hoover is coming back?" And a lot ct folks would like to know where he has been since 1929.

If Jimmy Walker saved the profits his friends made for him in 1929. we can understand how he can run .-.round all over the world. The last figures showed the total to be up around a million, with pin money occasionally. The city swimming pool will open June Sth. much to the delight of the boys and girls who patronize that pace. W. Guy Brown will be in charge, assisted by Miss Geraldine Hower, assuring the very best supervision possible. There is an advantage for many in the fact that Decoration Day comes on Monday this year, permitting a doub'e holiday season. How ever this is not so acceptable this year when holidays are the things too many folks have too much of. It snowed in the Dakotas this week and they are happy over it. Their jubi'ant feeling comes because they believe the cold weather lias killed off the grasshoppers, which in recejit years has been the worst enemy the crops have hid i in the northwest. Speaker Garner has launched his twA bi lion dollar unemployment relief measure and it looks now as though it would receive rather general support from the members of congress. We doubt the .prediction that it will bring the desired relief. but perhaps its wortlt giving a whirl. Through these times, we can all feel better by keeping as even tempered as possible. Os course that's hard to do some time but what's the use to bicker and quarts 1 and find fault? Smile and try a litt'e harder and yon will come through in a much better way than otherwise. Most of your troubles never really happen. Then are 48,000 less cars licensee in Indian: this year than last, indicating that there are some folks who are out because of the depression. As a result the states income it- effected about 5300,000 and Secretary of State Frank Mayr, Jr., believes the state should take advantOwe Money It DifFERENIPtOPLE Bills—bills—bills!

age of (he law and collect the driver's license fee. Under the law this can be done each three years. You need not be surprised if one 1 of these days congress cleans up the tax problem by adopting a gen- ■ cral sites tax. After all if we have ' to raise billions that's about the ctfy way left and if they leave out , Hie necessities of life, it might be 1 the easier method. There is an , under-current which seems to be 1 palling that way right now and a number of leaders have come out in the open. Do you favor a street fair this year? The American Legion which has sponsored this event the past several years would appreciate your honest opinion. Some argue it would be a good thing to pep us nil up while others consider it a waste of money. The Legion will, we are sure, be glad to fol’ow the desires of the majority. There is . movement to unite an agricultural fair with the annual club exthus making an event of great

good to the farmer. And that's a worth while thought to consider. Just when the country needs si methingNo relax its taut nerves, I the baseball industry delivers the right medicine. The great national game is under way for 1932. Home runs make better talk than falling trices. Let's lambaste the umpire ■nd not the politician. get out in the fresh air whenever we can instead of sitting around a stuffy office where unfortunately there is too litt'e business to be done. A I little recreation—and fortunately this is cheap recreation —is Just what tlie weary business man needs. Here is the opportunity. Let's enjoy it! — Richmond Times-1 Dispatch. The popular wail that “we have j * no true leadership.” with its implied disparagement of those in authority, is often but a subtle admission of a gnawing inadequacy on the part of the complainer and his fel'ows. Great men are not horn great: rather, the strong qualities for which they are respected land revered are those which the loyal confidence of their fellows have brought to the surface. Few leaders fail because too much trust was placed in them; many fail berause their followers wavered. It is the way of human nature that seldom do men willfully betray trusts, even small onnes. Someone has said that “to have a noble poet, there must be a nobCe audience.'' That aphorism should be reworded to fit our day: To have a great leader, there must be great followers. —Rotarian. o ♦ ♦ Household Scrapbook —By— ROBERTA LEE ♦ -♦ Cleaning the Sink If the porcelain sink is veiy dirty try using the fallowing cleansing method: Sprinkle cleansing powder Scrub thoroughly with a steel wool pad.

The threads will come out easily and without breaking. String Beans If a pinch of baking soda is added to string bems while they are onoking, it will soften them and keep them a bright green. * TWENTYYEARS * AGO TODAY From the Daily Democrat File ♦ < Rev.

Aristophanes Stands Bewildered Aristophanes remarked of women, 2300 years ago, “They dip their wool into hot water, according to the ancient plan, all of them without exception, and never make the slightest innovation. They sit and cook as of old. They carry upon their heads as of old.” Could you summon Aristophanes into our today—he would stand appalled at the speed of women’s present innovations. Just about everything you are accustomed to becomes outmoded, discarded, in an incredibly brief time. Ways of cooking, serving, traveling; of keeping clean, healthy, beautiful, young—these are the modern tasks, “as of old.” But science in alliance with factories and kitchens keeps new ways coming along so fast that poor old Aristophanes and those soft-sandaled women would be breathless with keeping up. Yet you are used to swift change... used to comforts that a short while ago were luxuries ... that a little day from now-will seem Grecian-quaint themselves. From advertisements in your daily newspaper you reap news of these ways to live healthfully, richly, advantageously—young! Sit and cook as of old? Carry upon your head as of old? No, you carry in your head knowledge of the best that is buyable. Advertisements give you easy, happy surveys of new ways. Glance over all the advertisements you can, every chance you have.
