It is reported that a fanner sold a thousand bushels of corn at Willshire the other day for $l2O. Then he listened to Mr. Hoovers prosperity speech. How do you suppose he liked it? President Hoover says he hasn't heard of any Jeremiahs in the Democratic party, to forcast the depression. Perhaps not and he wouldn't have believed them anyway, but he certainly can't layclaims to being a Moses. We are still in the wilderness. We are hoping that the sugar mill here will be operated next year and we understand there is an excellent chance. Any thing that can be done here, w 111 be, you may feel assured, for the people of this community recognize the importance of that industry. "Oh. shut up.” is what Vice-Presi-dent Charles Curtis told a heckler who asked him to be "louder and funnier.” Is that some of the high grade statesmanship they bleat about? The heckler of course should have known that Dolly Gann is the funny member of the family. Ogden Mills, spokesman on many occasions, for President Hoover says that gent'eman should be permitted to "finish what he has started.” Well that ought not take long for most of us are about finished now and he will have until March 4th next.

any service they can that will improve conditions. Under President Grsliker efforts are constantly being made and any request from that association should have the ■ united support of every one in the community. Lets keep right on ■ fighting. * Winter is not far away and those , who haven't prepared for it, should i do so as much as possible. Many housewives have stored fruit and vegetables and most folks have filled their coal and wood bins. Preparations to care for the needy are being made here and elsewhere. Its the wise thing to do. They are doing some betting in the Wall street broker shops in New York, which if any criterion, indicate a sweeping Democratic victory. Odds are two to one that Roosevelt will win, e v en money on the governorship in that state, 7 to 5 that Hoover will not carry etght states and 2 to 5 that he will rot carry five states. Os course no one who cares a hoot about the election results will write on his ballot or in other ways mutilate it. You might as ' well stay away from the polls for. ( your vote won't count. Many tricks < are being used to prevent the honest expression of the voters but we doubt if it will count for much this year. = The story is being eircuiated Ibal Paul V. McNutt, Democratic can- ' didate for governor, is drawing his ■ salary from the state university, while campaigning. Thats just an- 1 other whisper. Mr. McNutt was granted a leave of absence on September Ist and does not draw a penny from that source. He is making his own campaign and will . enter upon his duties under no obligations to any one. i 11 Three weeks from today wo will be d«widing upon who will fill the ' political jobs the next two to four i years, chosing about all of them from the advisory board members . in townships to the presidency in * . the nation. Always this is important. but this year when your vote I means so much, we hope for and .| expect the largest vote ever cast i iin Adams county. For that purpose ■ . an organization is being formed in i every township. Good citizens will , want to assist in chosing good men ' who will serve us best. The candidate for lieutenant gov- . ernor on the Democratic ticket this . . election is M. Clifford Townsend.! known throughout the state as! , Cliff Townsend. Farmers of Indi-1 ana have fought an uphill battle for ■ years to gain parity with other i I groups that arc recognized in the r conduct of governmental affairs. - With Mr. Townsend in the office 1 ot lieutenant-governor, agriculture r in Indiana knows it has a true rep-1 • resentatrre. However, Mr. Town-' s send is not partisan in his inter- j - ests in government for his years of I experience have taught him that | good times are dependent on the i prosperity of all and equal distribution of the favors of government.' - Mr. Townsend is a former school, I teacher, superintendent of schools. I I 'ormer member of the state legisI | lature and above all, he is sincere. lAs presiding officer of the Indiana i State Senate, the people of the state are assured that the sessions of the state legislature will not be turned into vaudeville perform-; anees. — o Household Scrapbook I -By- . !

Contrary to popular belief th« phrase “electoral college” did no’ become a common one tor man, years after adoption of the const! tution. People referred only t< the "electors' until about 1825. I ' was only in 1845 that the phrasi received legal recognition. 'li I that year the federal election »c , was passed containing the term.

The cloth was to be used to make undergarments. All chapters to which , it was sent, except the Boston one, accepted the cloth without comment. The Boston chapter wrote back, however, explaining it could not use any.

GOV. ROOSEVELT STARTS SECOND , CAMPAIGN TRIP - > CONTINUED FROM days, drawing the spotlight again i upon himself, buttering at the Hoo- ■ ver record. En route with Roosevelt, Oct. 18 ' —(UP)—Gov. Franklin D. Reosevelt, Democratic Presidential nominee, left Albany at 9:35 A. M to- 1 day on the eecoUd major tour of his campaign. Smiling broadly as a band struck up "Happy Davs” the Governor ad- , dressed a few remarks to a group ot students and then posed for pictures. He wore a topc at, but was bareheaded. A driving rain was falling. "Rain is locky on all second campaign trips," he said. Roosevelt Joked with cameramen while waiting for them to adjust their equipment. "Just one more, Governor" they shouted. "That's what you always say” fie replied. The governor went aboard the train 20 minutes before it was to leave. Btvhind nun came Janies Roosevelt, his eldest son and members of the official pi rty. i Mrs. Anna Roosevelt Dall, his ’daughter, and Mrs. Betsy Cushing i Roosevelt, his daughter-in law, boarded the "Pioneer,” the private car of the special train, ah ut five minutes before starting time. Both wore green ensembles. Rochester was the first scheduled stop on the trip, which will carry i Roosevelt into th? middle west and south. I — CHURCH REVIVALS Church of God The subject of Rev. Marshall's discourse last evening was "Gospel Privileges.” It was pointed out in the discourse that it is man’s privilege to enjoy a present salvation. We do not have to wait until some future day or some future, unknown world to get salvation, but we can be saved today and enjoy the salvation Christ brings to us. It is i also man's gospel privilege of having the last remnant, of sin taken out of his heart by the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Farther on in his discourse Rev. Marshall spoke of two more great privileges that we have through the gospel ol Christ: The privilege of having nothing but love in our hearts for all people — the Gospel of Christ gives no room for ill-will, for hatred or any spirit that is in opposition to real love. Then we have the great privilege of entertaining a hope of eternal I glory with Chiist All these prh’ilegcs and others that were mentioned are bought ’ for us by the precious biood of Jesus. T4ie question left with us last evening was: "Are we enjoyi ing and living up to the privileges ■that Christ has bought for us?” Last evening Mr. Albert Duke What a Bladder Physic Should do.
