Saturday was the final day for the filing of names of candidates for the coming election. Now we know who they are and can prepare accordingly. It will be foolish to elect Roosevelt and Garner unless you give them the support of a Democratic | house and senate. That would be i simply tying their hands. While Mr. Hoover was revising his 1'328 farm relief promises at Des Moines, the Literary Digest) announced the poll at Council Bluffs, Iowa: Roosevelt, 777; Hoo-I ver, 382. The more politics is kept out of | the churches, the better it will be for those helpful institutions and for the people in general. Politics and religion are two different branches of civilization and they don’t mix worth a cent. The treasury at Washington shows a deficit of over four hundred million dollars. What do they mean when they talk about soundness and good business and claim t > be the only “fellers" who can do things just right? No wonder their arguments sound hollow. The straw votes continue to show decided advantages tor the Democrats, notwithstanding the statements of G. O. P. politicians that the tide has turned. After this little blow the voters will settle down to thought and will probably decide a new deal is desirable. Four weeks from tomorrow is f 'ection day. We believe that most people have their minds made up and are ready to vote and that whatever old fashioned tricks are uted, will prove futile this year. The folks want a new deal and realize they need it and as “sure as shootin' ’’ are going tn vote for the change. Al Smith, the happy warrior, will campaign through the east and may make a visit to Chicago, it has been announced fr o m headquarters, much to the satisfaction of the Democrats who realize that his persuasive argument will mean ) hundreds of thousands of vo'es. The big campaign is on and will continue warmer and warmer, until tour weeks from tomorrow.

Farley, of Auburn, Demo- 1 )! cratic candidate for congress, will! ; | open his Adams county campaign 1 1 Friday night of this week, with a 1 speech at the Freidheim school 1 house. Huber M. DeVoss and the local candidates will also be on the 1 rograin. A good crowd and a rousing, old fashioned meeting is assured. The annual fruit drive for the Adams County Memorial hospital will start October 17th with a canvass of this city. Each year this campaign is successfully conducted and Mrs. Ralph Roop who is in charge asks, hopes and believes they will have the cooperation of every one again. The campaign is in charge of the Civic Section of the Woman’s club, assisted in the rural sections by the Home EconI omic clubs. An old cattle man came in to tell us that the answer to one of the outstanding points made by Mr. Hoover last week in his Des Moines | speech is easily answered by those ; who know. He referred to the [statement that cattle sell for $2.50 j in Mexico and $4.50 just across the L line in Texas, intimating this was I due to the tariff. Our informant! 1 i 1 says that the difference in prices L is due to the fact that Mexican): cattle are grass fed while those on ) 'his side of the river are grain fed I. and that Mexicans gladly pay the < difference to get American cattle f because of quality. That's differ- ( ent. Mrs. Ruth Bryan-Owens, who will | speak at Berne the night of Octo- i her 24th, will, we predict, be fully 1 able to lake care of herself and to j satisfactorily dispose of any doubts ! Ihe'Tbr-mo Witness may have as to < her sincerity. The meeting is an * all county rally, to which every 1 1 one is invited withe committeemen and vice-chairmen from the south < part of the county in charge. The;, more it is knocked, the greater the I interest will be for Mrs. Owens is ) one of the outstanding women of 1 America. The Berne Witness wants to 1 know- what William Jennings Bry-1 an would say if he were alive? We ) don’t know, but whatever he said ! would be disagreed with by the editor and publisher of the Witness. ) We have an idea that if Mr. Bryan cou.d have beard Mr. Hoover's ac-; cept nte speech in which he de ) c ared loudly for a change of the i liquor laws, be would have decided! that the stand taken by Governor j ..oosevelt was in every way. clearer! and better for the people. There 1 a lot of bunk being spread in this campaign and the Witness, of course, afraid to discuss economic i issues, will try to throw dust inl the eyes of their readers. —

COMMANDS HUGE CAVALRY POST El Paso. Tex. - (U.R) — General i Walter C. Short, commander at i Fort Bliss, is the biggest boss in the southwest. He controls the work of 4.000 mon. his word is absolute law. his post represents an investment of many millions and annually spends SJ,OOO,VOO. General Short commands the largest cavalry post in the United States. During war time he would command 25.000 men, and 45,000 . uviliary troops. , ) “I never wanted to be anything I but a soldier." General Short said. "If I had to do it all over again I'd I still be a soldier." General Short is 62. He was i born in Columbus, O.

The Gordsan knot that ha. fer cent cl Sound Ireland to the British Empire has been loosened con-.idcrabiy by the “resignation” of Governor General James McNeill. Although tormal announcement stated that McNeill "had relinquished his post," it is well knoo-n that i’is mBV( Vas the direct result of a requv.l from Pres.dent Eamonn ds Valera to Kins George that the Governor General be removed or requested to resign, i This action on de Valera's part seal taken under the Imperial Conference j agreement of 1930, which permit-, the Chief Executive of any Dominion to "advise” the King that the crown's representative in such Dominion is unacceptable to the people, and to ask his removal. Although the ousting of McNeill is believed primarily to be the culmination of a long period of bickering between members of the Executive Council and the Governor General’s office, political observers believe that it is but the first step in de Valera's new policy of intensified republicanism, having for its object the complete severance of Ireland from the British Commonwealth. It is considered unlikely that a successor will be appointed to fill the vacated office, for the first time in Ireland's history since it was annexed by England, leaving the Emerald lain free of a British over lord.

SYNOPSIS Young and ambitious Ted Wynne realizes he cannot ask the wealthy Barb Roth to marry a mill hand, so he leaves his position in the Bellport steel mill and works his way through Old Dominion college. He shows promise in football and Barney Mack, the coach, takes an interest in him. Tom Stone, star player and Ted’s rival for Barb's affections, is antagonistic tuwatds him. Ted,however, is admired by the other students. During vacation he toils in the mill to earn his tuition and prepare for the fall football season. Barb breaks ar) appointment with Ted and goes with Tom to a dance. Ted takes Rosalie Downs, whom Barb dislikes. Ted ignores Barb and plans to show Barb he. too, can be independent, and at a week-end party ignores her. Late at night, ) the boys, at Tom’s suggestion, rush into the girls’ rooms and take them, pajama clad, down to the water. Ted does not join in the fun, but when Tom comes along with Barb in his arms, apparently enjoying it and calling to Ted to save her, he takes her from Tom and drops her in the water. Furious, she slaps him. Tom tries to start an argument, but Ted calls him a snob and leaves, with Barb watching from a window In the fall, New Dominion plays its first game against the Navy. Mack s pleased with Ted. Wealthy Jimmy Pidgin offers to share his room with Ted. he to pay expenses in re:urn for Ted's help in his studies, CHAPTER XI "The first thing we do is flecor•te," Pidge said when Ted had moved in. "And we got plenty of that.” During fiis four years as freshman at Ohio State, Vanderbilt, Illinois and New Dominion, Pidge had collected many pennants: these be strung around the top walls in the prevailing collegiate design. On the right wall he hung a sign: ROUGE GALLERY Below it he placed numerous photographs of girls: snapshots; newspaper pictures; formal cabinets elaborately mounted—each with an inscription such as: "To Jeems from Rosalind with her love.” On the opposite wall he placed hrs collection of Moviana—soulful eyes and smiles-showing-teeth and . light-glinting-in-hair; each with its ; message: "To Jimmy from Clara Bow." "I send you my loft—Garbo " All were grouped under the ) general head: MURDERERS ROW Over his textbooks, too neatly arranged in regular rows, was the ) message: READ ’EM AND SLEEP % He had rugs; a radio; floor lamps whose fringes were festooned with dance programs that dated back through the years; easy chairs — and a miscellaneous collection of burlesque show posters, auto license plates, traffic signs, etc. Over the door he bung a sign: YOUNG MEN'S STUDY ASSOCIATION Mr Edward Wynne, Esq, Pres Mr. James Pidgin, Esq., Sec. (We have no treasury—this means you) Pidge proudly surveyed his art. “A regular mardi gras. I claim it’s hot. Now I've done my part towards making this the best allround room on the campus; al) you have to do is to make foot ball eaptam. all-American, senior class president and valedictory." "How about chairman of the Strdent Activity Committee?" "I'll take cart of that. All right, sow where are your entrants for the Rouge Gallery?"

“Nobody ever gave me a picture, Pidge." "Hell—you ask for them; or steal them. The only one who ever gave me a picture was Penseur." “Which one is she?" “I haven't got her up; she's my sister—The Thinker. Different from me. Want to see her?" He dug into the lowest drawer of his trunk and rescued The Thinker from among his skates, bathing suit and sweaters “Pretty,” Ted said. “Looks like Janet Gaynor.” “How she'd love that. Somebody told her that and that's why she wears her hair that way.” “Let’s put her up.” Al! right—only it s your suggestion. Here's Father—get the frown—that's the way old pap usually looks at me so he had the picture taken that way. Mother can smile, though—see?” The season zoomed alone in typical New Dominion style Georgia Tech. Pitt, Nebraska. Kentucky and lowa were defeated in ordersome by fair margins, others after severe struggles; but Barney Mack always found away to finish first Ted's team 'acquitted itself creditably, starting every contest except that with Nebraska The Cornhuskers were powerful and undefeated when they came to New Dominion for the Homecoming Game and Barney took no chances He started his regulars and kept them in, with a few exceptions, until the game was almost over Then, to protect a three-point lead, he made a few substitutions to bolster his defense. Ted was one of these Paden had played a magnificent game, practically clinching an all-Amer-ican selection; but he was tiring fast and Barney said to Ted: “In theie now. play it safe. Kick them back into coffin corner every time you get the ball and can’t move with it ” Ted had developed into an accurate kicker He relieved Paden for the last eight minutes and, after trying two plays on offense, punted for the corners or out of bounds to prevent the willowy Husker safety man from getting a chance to bring back a punt into scoring territory.
