’ Attorney General James Ogden •tays the referendum proposed by “the state senate on the liquor question is "meaningless and futile" • and every one agrees with him. "G. O. P. leaders tell Hoover he ’“will win again," say the headlines, "but the President should remember •the old adage, “you can't believe - any thing you hear and only half what you see.” “ Its no crime to publicly declare J. in Germany that a woman has sex "■appeal, according to a recent < court ruling. Gosh overe here the g “sassiety" folk think that's a coin- • pliment. I Dog days will soon be over and • we will be stepping on the gas. " With September will come the Z opening of school, court and many ” other activities. Better get ready. ’ Read the advertisements in this • taper if you would keep posted. • *“ Stocks on Wall street took a • little tumble yesterday but grain • prices continued upward. That's a » good sign. We are much more in- - t erested in good prices for oats. 7 corn, wheat and hay than we are 3 in any of the tags hu’.g up on the ~ s'.oek exchange. - Cal Coolidge's alibi for not at- - tcnflfng the Hoover notification • «. meeting was the hay fever but his M neighbors were the most surprised, , not even noticing that he had it. 3 The old boy is foxy and he will be • able to sit tight most of the time “ few weeks. ■phe repeal of the Wright law does not seem possible in the spec-ial-session. The senate is playing • its number of tricks and have .« wred the old alibi of a referendum .... dect4»n. which is about what was .. expected. There wasn't must sense 7 in bringing the matter up at this •* session. 3 Old John Stonebanks fell dead in “ the Seattle library building. In his pockets were found a piece of ' bread, half an apple and bank books « showing deposits of more than • SIO,OOO. He was a begger and prob- - ably took help from many who had far less of this world's goods than „ he. You never can tell. ♦ Sfate Chairman Earl Peters modes estly predicts that Franklin D. , Roosevelt will carry Indiana by| - 150,000 and gives as his reason for' « this estimate that polls in five pre- * < inets in each county show start- „ ling changes in favor of the Demo- *, xrats. Chances are he is low on „ his guess but it pays to be conservative. * A number of suspicious looking 7 customers have joined the crowd which comes and goes here each • day and they should not be surpris- • ed if picked up and made to answer - some questions. The city officials .. are preparing to make these fel- • lows account for themselves and J either move on quickly or take the 3 consequences. We are still unable to tell you “ whether the special session has • really helped the situation or made - it .worse. Time will tell. Looks Z like the $1.50 law will stick. If it

does there is trouble a plenty I ahead. It may cause each taxing unit to prove the need of the money demanded and thus permit some reductions that won t hurt but there ' will be many inconveniences, some difficulties and a chaotic condition • for several months at least. Tinies ought to begin to get bet- • ter. We have had three tough years In this country and that's I twice as long as the usual panic continues. Every one hopes it is over and even if it is the wrecks have been sufficient that it will take a long time for recovery. Whatever the results on the elec-1 tion, let good times come and in double doses and let the voters decide whether its because of Mr. Hoover or the probabilities for a change. The stock market reacted yesterday and prices dropped a couple of points. Os course the fact that Mr. Hoover was being notified of his renomination had nothing to do with that but the Republican press will probably claim that it was brought about now to distract attention. We notice that's what they say about the fact that Mayor Walker was ordered to report to Governor Roosevelt yesterday. If that's bigger news than the Washington meeting, why complain? The senate continues to fiddle. Lieutenant Governor Ed Bush, Senator Hartzell and others insist on an income tax law to make up the deficit caused by the $1.50 tax limit bi'l. The governor has declared he will veto such a bill if it comes to him. In the meantime all efforts to save the situation by repeal of the tax limit law are defeated and the blame rests on a Republican ' senate, lieutenant governor and the other leaders who stand by them. I it should not be tolerated but what 1 to do? Looks as thbugh we are , just up against something. , o I SCHOOL * NEWS , — GEO. T. DREW. Reporter ♦ ♦ August 12, 1932 Col. Jack Brunton. Os Decatur. ' gave a lecture on tobacco auctioneering. something very different I from anything that has yet been demonstrated in the auction business and was indeed very interesting. The c’ass has selected “Be Thoro’.' as the class motto. We be- ' lieve by following the meaning of I the word “thoro" our efforts will i ultimately be crowned with success. An added feature to our evening program last night was the Auction | School's famous “Coondog Four," composed of Fred Engle, of Decatur, Col. Guy Pettit, Geo. T. Drew of Richmond, and Worth A. Cyphers, of Mt. Gilead. Ohio. Col. Guy Johnson of Columbus. Ohio, is leaving the city today to continue his business activities in the auctioneering profession. He presented his final lecture yesterday, “Opportunities in Real Estate Auctions," which was well received ’ and thoroughly appreciated by the class. Col. Earl Gartin left yesterday for Greensburg to conduct a com-| munity sale. He will be with us I again Saturday. Mickey, we’re all for you. Show ' the Decatur fans how they fight on the Pacific coast. You are all invited to attend the auction sales again this evening at 7:30 o’clock. o — O ♦ Household Scrapbook —By— ROBERTA LEE * « Varnished Surfaces When refinishing varnished surfaces use a polish mide by mixing 1 quart of good vinegar 2 ounces butter cf antimony, 2 ounces alcohol, 1 quart of oil.

I i tOne secret of getting ahead You need good health to succeed Many a man has seen his chances go because he was too sick to keep pace with competition. Often his poor health was due to constipation. This ailment frequently causes headaches, loss of energy, sleeplessness. It takes the “punch" out of your day’s work. Try eating Kellogg’s All-Bran. Science shows this delicious cereal supplies “bulk” to exercise the intestines, and Vitamin B to tone the intestinal tract. Also iron for the blood. The “bulk” in All-Bran is much like that of lettuce. How much safer than using pills and drugs—• so often habit-forming. Two tablespoonfuls daily will correct most types of constipation. If your intestinal S trouble is not re- i lieved this way, see your doctor. , In the red-and-green package. At il all grocers. Made I by Kellogg in Battle Creek. j HELPS KEEP YOU FIT 1

HOOVER DOES A TURN-ABOUT FACE ON PROHIBITION CONTINUED FROM PAGW ONE, sent to the continuation, of this tcglme. “1 refuse to accept either of j these destinies, on the one hand to ' return to the old saloon with Its ‘ political and t<U eorruption. «r on the other to endure the bootlegger and the speakeasy with their ’ abuses mid crime.
