Hoover certainly has overworked ! 1 himself in the past month devising j 1 programs of benefit to the nation, i Yep. the Pennsylvania straw vote i reports seem as unbelievable as' i those from Texas did four years' ago, but it turned out just that way.| — Some one wants to know if all j j those $75,000 "human dynamos” wel ( used to read about back in 1929 ■, have been short circuited. ( —1 With the tax bill in Adams county . Just about cut in half next year, taxpayers of this community will at least have reason to smile < Governor Roosevelt put the brand ( ol the four "D’s” on President Hoo- . ver —Deceit. Delay, Destruction and Despair, so applicable after Hoo- ( ver's recent speeches. f 1 The Democrats here will close I the campaign with a Saturday night meeting just before the election. 1 plans for which will be announced I soon. A health organization speaks of j “the germs which cling to money." , Wish the germs would tip us off on how they manage to do it, says the j Boston Herald. , If plans of the Farm Bureau can . be carried out. this will be the center for a poultry and egg market covering a half dozen counties, < which certainly would prove bene- 1 ficial. ] -1 What do these Republicans mean | by saying the country will go to i, the bow-wows unless Hoover is re- ( elected? Wheat dropped to its , lowest price in 70 years yesterday , and the administration is in power in Washington. - ■ i They tell us business is picking , up. Must be hitch-hiking, from the j length of time it takes to get around , the corner and out where the ord- ( inary merchant and farmer can get ( a glimpse at it. •' The Literary Digest poll in Fort Wayne is 1.042 to 1,992 in favor of i Roosevelt and in other Indiana cities it runs about an average ratio of two to one. Mr. Hoover has something to shoot at in his trip to . Indianapolis tomorrow. |, Roosevelt continues to lead in' the Literary Digest poll and the vote for the past week shows a ! gain in nearly every state. Including Indiana. The poll gives Hoover hut seven states and the other forty-one go to Roosevelt. The

(article this week takes to task lEverett Sanders. Republican national committeeman for his statements which attempt to belittle the straw vote. The Fort Wayne News-Sentinel in one column prints what Hoover has done f<< the country and in the next column states the city’s relief fund has been set at $375,000. ■Save the country from going to the I bow wows, by voting the Demo- ! cratic ticket. What care we which way the election goes and other topics of more or less importance—our baby has been named John Morrow Lindbergh —and in their new happiness we hope the famous parents enjoy the thrills of parenthood so abruptly ended with the kidnaping of little Charles Jr. "Wheat drops to lowest in 70 years" was the streamer in many , newspapers last evening and this morning. And they tell us the country will go to the dickens if Democrats get in and restore government to the people. Its the i other way around and don’t let ' them make a joke of it. Swat this destructive campaign j talk of the Republicans. There is ' no place in American make-up for despair, destruction and the woes which President Hoover and his crowd of office seekers attempt to I foist on the nation. It's un-Amer- i lean and certainly poor sportsmanship. 1 he Detnocrat'e county ticket Is composed of excellent men. each qualified for his place, and deserving of your support. This is not a year when any one can afford to | take a chance at ticket splitting for I statistics show that a surprising I percentage of those who try it, re- ; gardless of experience and care. I mutilate their Italiots. It’s amusing to hear Ogden Mills . and other loud speakers of the administration bewail the fact that the American people have decided to change bosses in the White House. They cry like an injured ■ kitten and want you to believe that ! they alone are the saviors and pro-' riders. Why don’t they do some-' thing now? Bank bandits seem to have broken loose again and several raids | have taken place in Indiana and ! Illinois. So far the yeggs haven't ; been very successful and the men ' have been captured and the loot ! recovered. Each community is in- ! censed when it comes to bank hold- I ups and everyone is willing to join ■ the search to get the outlaws. My how the tables have turned ! in this political campaign. The cry i of the Republicans used to be pros-1 perity and progress and now from j the President on down they are i depicting despair and destruction. I Governor Roosevelt, with a broad . smile and shoulders big enough to i carrv the burden, pictures a future 1 ol happiness, progress and his sin-! cerity convinces you that he he- ' lieves it. — Every farmer in Adams county ' will be interested in the Kirkland I I township meeting next Tuesday i night. Clifford Townsend. Democratic candidate for lieutenant-gov-ernor wiil give the principal address. Jerry Lelchty will preside and J. D. Hull, chairman of the agricultural division for the state Democratic committee will take pert ir. the program. There will be special features including music by the American Legion drum corps and a special orchestra. Mr. Townsend, a genuine farmer, will talk to the farmers on the problems of the day and the issues of the campaign. Plan to be there. o NOTICE—The party that took the cross-cut and hand saw from P. Kirsch s factory is known, and if not returned at once, will be prosecuted. Peter Kirsch. 253-3tx BARGAINS — Bargains in Living Room, Dining Room Suites, Mattresses and Rugs. Stuckey and Co.

liss has had a hard time picking his next picture. He and Darryl Zanuck finally decided upon “The King’s Vacation,” an original by Ernest Pascal.

■ and sense of humor. While no one else is chosen for the picture as yet, Warners promise that the cast will contain more big names than in any previous Arliss i film. Undoubtedly, John Adolfi will continue to direct the English actor. And, for a future note, you can write it down that “The Adopted t ather” is scheduled to follow “The King’s Vacation.” There are no definite plans, as yet. for the Voltaire story that Paul Green is writing. On the outside of the menu cards •t the R-K-O commissary is a neatly typed bulletin offering S2OO for an alternate title to “The Penguin Pool Murder Case.” Reading it off the other noon, someone asked: “Well, what’s the matter with that?” | Whereupon Douglas Churchill nipped: “Why, that’s the original title.” TOWN GOSSHU Roscoe Ates pulled a neat gag upon the autograph seekers at the premiere of “A Bill of Divorcement.” When they asked him to sign their books, he passed ove: a slip of paper with his name written on one side and a gummed surface 1 on the other. They could paste it 1 right in. On this same occasion, 1 a pretty starlet—no I won’t tell you her name—showed up with a short speech all ready to read into the microphone. Not such a bad idea, either. But a sweller gag, I think, would have been to step up and read: “I’m so glad to be here tonight and I’m sure this is going to be a great picture,” The cable companies are going to be sorry to see Douglas Fairbanks < . come home.

All during her illness the producers kept saying: “You just wait, Anna." But when she finally threw' away the crutches, only one offer was furthcoming. And it was for a bit. You don’t really know Chinese food until you go on one of those Chinatown parties given by Anna May Wong. Being a very intelligent person, Anna also gets the right people together. One of her guests of honor recently was Moon Kwan, the Chinese poet. Wedding bells rang last week for Jobyna Ralston’s brother, Edward. His bride is Kay Ault. Another pair of honeymooners are Irving Thalberg's secretary, Vivian Newcom, and Kenneth Orlando Gjerset. They had a big wedding in Pasadena and half the M-G-M studio turned out for the occasion.
