A little weather if you please, but we can't complain after the many days of sunshine the past several months. The summer and autumn were about perfect and now’ if we have to have some rough stuff, we will just have to put up with it. •The new Lieutenant Governorelect of Indiana sets a tine example by admitting that he is no bigger than the Senate. — Indianapolis Star. * • • Bet Ed Bush will take that as a "dirty crack" directed at the retiring Lieutenant-Governor. Indianapolis is talking about a seven months term of school in»)tead of ten as they have been having, whieh may shorten the spring training system as W’ell as ruining the June commencement exercises. No doubt a number of things will occur the next year to make every one sit up and take notice. Governor Roosevelt will confer with President Hoover concerning the disposition of the foreign debt problem, not offici illy for he has no right or power to do that but in the most helpful manner possible. That's a fine spirit on each side and cannot help but meet the approval of the public. Experts are now declaring that the Republican party is on the junk heap and will never come hack. Four years ago they were saying the same thing about the Democratic organization yet in four years they built the greatest organization they ever had. There isn't much to the dope. There will be two parties in this country always, and if not called by the same names as now, will be pretty much like them. Old Seth Parker up in Maine, with a choir of Yankee men and women has delighted millions with his bright songs and wonderful home circle services. Now he is urging the organization of Parker c übs and each member agrees to pick out some family in worse circumstances than his is and help them during the winter. That's the Golden Rule and real religion and something every one who can afford to, should join. The organization now has some two hundred seperate chapters with several thousand members. ■ With nearly ten thousand voting units still unofficially reported, the majority of Franklin D. Roosevelt is 6.154.809 and his total vote is ill x j a?a?a? £^? c x i a ztkbcst • z therc is —the best will W. H. Zwick & Son * Mrs. Zwick, Lady Attendant Phones 61 and 303. J. M. Doan, Phone 1041

over 21,000,000, a new high record in popular and electoral votes, having evidently been established. One of the surprises is the comparatively small vote given Norman Thomas, Socialist candidate for President. It was expected and the straw poles indicated Ills total vote might be two millions, but instead the vote so far compiled shows but 557,316, which is lower than usual for a number of years. Indiana Democrats are in a huddle at French Lick. While it is claimed to be a conference at which many important matters will be decided, we are half inclined to believe that most of the time will be devoted to the Hoosiers telling their friends from Illinois just how it was done and in response get the inside story of the fine work done in the neighboring state Well the boys have worked hard and are entitled to the outing and there is no place better for such an occasion than Taggart's hotel. In 1919 taxes paid by American motor vehicle owners and operators totaled $222,365,631. Three years later the motor tax total was $358,329,922; in 1925 it was $664,273,492; in 1928 it was $795,887,957 and in 1931 it was $1,025,735,112. The pertinent point is that the increase in motor taxation was much greater than the increase in automobile operation. Motor vehicle owners unquestionably are carrying more than their just share of the tax burden. Tax reform is much discussed nowadays but strangely downward revision of automotive taxes is not being given sufficient emphasis. Instead, there are movements to divert gasoline tax receipts, to increase license fees, and now the Federal government is levying on gasoline.—South Bend Tribune. It’ is fortunate that the new President-elect is to have a Democratic congress after March 4 and that his party will control both the senate and the House of Representatives. One of the misfortunes of t>olftics is the fact that control may be divided with a congress hostile to the President. There is certain to be sparring for political power, even with the very best of intentions and patriotic motives. Never was there a time when it was so important to have such cooperation. Never was it more necessary that there be undivided control. President-elect Roosevelt has his opportunity and. if he fails, can biame none other than his own party. The Democrats have the greatest opportunity of their entire career, but if they muff this chance, then both the old parties arc destined for the scrap pile. The Democrats have a most solemn mandate and the greatest patriotic task ever facing a political organization. —Marion Leader-Tribune. — o — • — ■■ - — « Household Scrapbook j -By- | ROBERTA LEE I ♦——— ♦ Children's Pockets The pockets on children's clothine should tie sewed low enough so that the tiny fingers will be reached to the bottom of the pocket, 'in this way the hards can not be pushed so far down as to tear them off.

Bv HARRISON CARROLL. C«prrl(M. >l3l. Kmc FwlurM Sr«dlral«. Ine. HOLLYWOOD, Cal., .— Milady will wear no more puffed •leeves on her evening gown. This is the dictate brought back from Paris by Travis Banton, fashion creator ' for the Paraoil I"’ S'udi". "We have found out," says SgHE, Mr. Bant o n, r "that these ' \ ' sleeves »re too often rumpled aggk or crushed by wraps. Conse- SaMS&y jlbF quentiy.thc new evening gown will follow the body line closely. Travis “This doesnot Banton mean the abandonment of the puffs They still will be used on wraps and for day wear. Being particularly adaptable for fur, they are causing an important revival in this type of trim. Paris, in fact, is fur crazy. Everything is silver fox or sable.” Another Parisian trend, declares the style expert, is a greater use of feathers. And here the fad is directly traceable to the hats and costume worn by Marlene Dietrich in “Shanghai Express.” To the fashion designer, however. the big surprise in Europe is the new smartness of London. English women, Banton reports, now dress as smartly as their Parisian sisters. Noon-time at the Ritz is a veritable fashion show. And now another tip. Say goodbye to reds. This spring both Paris and Hollywood will feature grey. Jane Murfin tells the story of a little theater owner who was trying U> rent a big picture for a song. “But listen,” argued the salesman, “when this film showed on Broadway, people came to see it three and four times.” The exhibitor gave a deprecatory shrug. “And if it took those New Yorkers four times to understand the thing, how do I sell it out here?” HOLLYWOOD PARADE: Hollywood stars will see themselves plastered in informal poses across three pages of an English newspaper. The candid camera views wera taken by the wife of Charles Laughton when she visited the film capital. . . . It’s Honolulu again for Dorothy Mackaill after the first of the year. She's already booked her passage. Out here they're gazing a little wide-eyed at Mannie Self, co-author of “Blessed Svent.” In one hour after his ar-

rival to write for Paramount, he had bought a car, a radio, rented an apartment and had his suit pressed. . When M G. M, gav* Karen Morley a plain, old-t'asmoned wedding ring to wear in “Flesh,” she showed unusual excitement. This same ring was worn by Greta Garbo in “Anna Christie,” by Lynn Fontanne in “The Guardsman” and by Norma Shearer in “Smilin’ Through.” . . . Gene Raymond gave a second and he hopes final tarewell party at the Cocoanut Grove last evening. Among those present were Jesse Lasky, Jesse Lasky, Jr., Frances Dee, B. P. Schulberg, Raquel Torres and Charles Feldman. This week, at one of the film zoos, an ancient and ailing elephant was mercifully put to death. The incident recalls the famous execution order passed on Mary, then the oldest member of the Universal animal troupe, Mary was soafflicted with rheumatism that she could scarcely move about. Studio heads decided she must die and determined upon electrocution as the method. They had technicians lay a floor of metal strips in a big barn and chained Mary to the spot. Electricians were waiting to shoot the full studio current into the doomed pachyderm. Down went the hand, the current hummed. And then pandemonium. At the first shock, Mary gave a terrific leap, burst chains, shot through the door of the barn and headed for the hills, stepping high and handsome. When they finally corralled her on the Cathedral of Notre Dame set, she was bursting with excitement and completely cured of rheumatism. Several days before he left here, Groucho arx P a 'd a visit tn the oldest adobe house standing in Los a Angeles. On hi* way out, he came upon two ancient Mexicans dozing on a bench. Groucho seized the hand of one of them and began to pump it Groucho vigorously. Marx He exclaimed: "You certainly have a cozy layout here, and I know you two fellows are going to be very happy!” DID YOU KNOW— That Wallacr Beery once organized a motion picture company to produce films in Japan?
