Paul McNutt will speak here Wednesday evening and the following rrtght there will be a big VanNuys rally in Fort Wayne. You will enjoy both of these events if; you attend them. They are making a big spiel about the home banks and we hope these prove to be as good as they claim but remember its government business and usually there is so much ' red tape that only the favored ones ' can get in at a profit. r-T' ■:. .. ' — Now we hop right into the football season. Most of the colleges, including the big ten, started off last Saturday and for the next six or seven weeks will hold the footlights in sports. And its a great sport at that, with thrills and frills. Aacording to the newspapers. I general conditions are on the upswing, but don’t sit around waiting for the old fashioned brand of prosperity. That's still around the corner and the corner is so far away it will take years to reach it. The Maine election and the straw votes tnay stimulate the G. O. P. workers, as is claimed but if they keep on getting the doses as they have the past month, they are going to have a regular hangover headache one of these days. Those who have been Insisting that the Roosevelt meetings have ! been large but lacked enthusiasm ought to have been in Chicago overj the week-end. The governor was hailed as a winner and cheered earnestly wherever he went. Ulin-j ois leaders predict he will carry the state by half a million. A few days ago Mayor McKee oi! New York was the idol. Now it seems Jimmy Walker is rushing across rhe Atlantic to resume his place an leader of the Tammanyites. Just what has happened there the past sow days we don't know end probable never will, but we feel sure there has been a get together o.’ the factions.

The Cubs has been a great ball team but we are finally and conclusively convinced that they have no business with the Yanks. We know when we're licked. The New ■ Yorkers have the greatest hatting I bunch ever assembled together and they do a mighty good job of fielding. They are the undisputed champions of the world. State s Attorney John A. Swanson of Chicago has cabled invitations to the Insulls to return to this country for an investigation of the affairs in which billions of dollars were lost, but we have an idea that these men will send regrets if they reply at all. If they want them back in this country it is quite probable they will have to convince them as to just what will happen to them. The G. O. P. are going to fire their big guns this week. Numerous outside orators will be brought in and Watson and Robinson are to spend the next several days trying to talk the Calumet leaders out of their sleepy attitude. We don’t believe the voters will be fooled by the blink which thf Watson crowd i has handed out each election and I that Indiana will join the RooeeI velt column on November Sth. The next Indiana state senate is practically sure to be Democratic. That party has eighteen holdovers j I while the Republicans have but five. If the Democrats elect eight I new members they will have conItrol and they will probably get twice that number or more. The Republicans must elect twenty-one to get a majority and haven’t a chance. The house should an® will he the same politics and with McNutt as governor and Townsend presiding over the senate, things will be accomplished. Polis being taken in the various precincts in Adamst county show a decided Democratic trend, hundreds o* Republicans declaring they will vote Uro straight Democratic ticket this year. The national, state and [county tickets are strong and there is no reason why you shouldn't support them. Nationally you know if Mr. Hoover is re-elected the nation will continue in the rut in which it has been stalled for three years past. Mr Roosevelt promises you a new deal. Ho will be i ielected and with him should be' added the support of Fred VanNuys in the senate and James I. Farley in the house. They stand for the I things he does. The Indiana state * ticket is'headed by Paul V. McNutt, able, honest, fearless and capable pind the rest of the ticket is strong iiu . very way. The county ticket is ' composed of splendid men, whom ■ you know and who deserve elec- ■ [tion. The campaign is on and it I lis one of the most important ever [ held in this nation. Make no mistake. o NOTICE The county bird of Charities will meet at 3 o’clock Tuesday afternoon at Dr. Patters n s office to insp et 'he county Infirmary, jail i and other institutions. Mrs. D. D.

STATE LESION FAVORS BONUS Immediate Payment Is Favored by Indiana Legion Officials Imlianapolis. Oct 3 —(UP) —Vigorous support of the American legion’s vote in favor of Immediate pf j-.-.’lit of the butius- w a.- :red [today from the Indiana department. Any doubt regarding the state’s attitude on the issue was eliminated when officers f.r the ensuing year were installed at National Head quarters here yesterday. They were elected at the recent convention in Kokomo. William O. Nelson, Anders n. new commander described the first duty of the Legion as "Caring for disabled and dependent as the result of war service ’. tile promised the Legion’s record in battling red activities, communists and advancing a program of Nati nal defense. Clarence Jackson, former state commander, who echoed Nelson’s declaration for full bonus payment, criticised activity of the National economy league, with which Com rnander Richard E. Byrd is asso-

SYNOPWo Ted Wynn* leaves his position in the steel mill at Bellport to woik his way through college. He loves Barb Rath, daughter of wealth, and real- : ices he could never ask her to marry a mill hand. At Old Dominion, Ted i lows promise as a football player. Tom Stone, star player and one of Bellport* elite, is antagonistic towards him. When Ted is forced to give up football because it conflicts with his job, Barney Mack, the coach, gets him a position that will I not interfere. Ted passes hi* exami. nations with honors and wins the respect of his classmates. He goes ! home for a visit. CHAPTER 111 Across the river the bessemer converter belched its ruddy flame into the cold morning sky—blowing iron into steel by the terrific force of air that came through the ho| rs of tuyeres and fought its wa*r through the molten mass to freedom. carrying with it the dross; then Flannagan would dump eighty-six pounds of manganese into the five tons of purified iron and it would become steel—magic stuff, manganese. Ted's steps led away from the dungeon mill this morning, towards joy and hope; it was symbolical—he was in the converter himself, no.v, being blown and tossed about; being purged of the dross His flame was muddy and red, now, but near the end it might be smooth and brilliant. He could understand the blowing of strong I Currents through his being; but he would still be iron unless somebody • provided the magic manganese; and what was the manganese s Life was interesting, if you lived it; if you climbed from the valley prison to the top of the hill and , challenged the wind to blow. I He had come a day early to surprise his parents. Stealing softly around to the kitchen he looked through the window. His mother, with a flannel kimono over her nightgown, was preparing breakfast —he could smell the coffee; she was getting old but was still pretty, especially when her face was flushed like that. His father was warming his shoes before the stove—a I habit. Ostensibly preparing for one more in a long succession of days in the mill and home—going about their business; but Ted knew he was their business; that life was over for these two except as he lived it. The idea frightened him. He pulled his hat down and , knocked at the kitchen door. "Who can that be at this hour?" Mother's voice was a little I strange; but his father'* was as I rough and strident as always in I the morning: "It’s a bum. Send him away; there's plenty of work/' Ted knocked vigorously. "You never can tel! whose boy | he might be," his mother said The door opened, giving out a rush of • arm air. Ted head down, mumbled: “Lady, I'm out of work Could you give me a cup of coffee?" Step in, poor boy; we've only I got a bite but you're welcome." His fathet looked resentful. Ted sat down at the end of the table | while his mother went to the stove He bunged on the table and roared: "How long doe* a fallow have to wait on some breakfast around here anyhow?" His mother turned swiftly, dropped the cup of cottee on the floor: "My boy I" His father smiled before breakfast for the first tune « twenty [ yea-«. Ted did a lot of talking during ' the meal- and was very coeky He ' | had been away a long time; many!

times he had planned this homecoming- and every play had worked perfectly. "Conic on, seven—Barbie needs shoes." Yes—Barbie needed shoes like the moon needed light. Barbie got her seven. She usually did; but not because she needed it Barb liked to gamble with the boy*—poker, blackjack, craps; she howled when she lost but she usually won; she always won from Ted. ' Come on. Ambitious, what this time?” It had started as a nickel game in a corner of the kitchen during Janet's party. Barb had found the game and it began to go up. She had pooled with Stone against the gang. Ted had lost seven dollar*. "Pitch in, Wynne; quitting?" Stones voice was sarcastic. Barb's eyes were tempting, taunting, smiling, daring. It was always a contest with Barb. Ted went through his pockets; counted his money; put a dime back and shoved the rest in the pot “Ten cents for carfare homeshooting seven bucks." Stone's eyebrows lifted Barb’s eyes glittered. They had not gone above a dollar previously She counted out the money. "My ‘ dice — shooting seven bucks " "All right—you're faded ” “Barbie needs a permanent—come on sev—” Sev came. Stone counted the money. Barb smiled triumphantly imo Ted's eye*. "You can’t beat me,” she said softly, "at anything." Ted had a lot of time to think about that remark for he went to work before the furnaces the next morning. He had lost his carfare back to School and, although he might have dipped into his bank account, kept his budget str tig+it ' by working for the money—three i days pulling up would do it The 1 weather was cold and he could do it. Barb had been pleasant the first evening—eyes enchantingly free of ' mockery, dewy with sweetness, a I promise of heaven, the girl of hi*
