Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dailies CALVIN COOLIDGE Again the people of this nation bow their heads in sincere sorrow because of the death of a great and good man. Calvin Coolidge, thirtieth President of the United States, former Vice-President, former Governor of Massachusetts and who held many other positions of great trust and responsibility, died at his residence at Northampton, Massachusetts, yesterday about noon. The news flashed over the country and shocked a world already deep in gloom because of the many tragic and burd- ; ensome events of the past few years. He became ill while at work at his desk. Ever industrious I and always thinking of how best he could serve the people of his country which he loved, it was fitting that he should be so engaged when stricken. Great honor will be paid him and his work will live on during the centuries to come for his | integrity, his honesty, his deliberate manner of weighing' subjects of greatest importance made him an outstanding | figure. Because of his high standing and his keen intellect he I was constantly serving in various ways to aid the nation in ! its present economic affliction. As a member of the committee to work out a program for the substantial relief of the railroads and as a confident of the great business executives in the country, his advice was listened to and his decisions accepted by the millions who believed in his wisdom and his integrity. Few men have been so often called to serve and few have performed so creditably as did this man each time he was chosen. “Silent Cal’’ he was called because his words were few and always carefully chosen. He gave earnest thought to such subjects as were brought to him and then firmly gave his decision in understandable language. He was admired by every’ one regardless of political affiliation and loved by rich and poor alike. He climbed from farmer boy through various positions of trust to the presidency and wore his honors quietly and simply. His death causes grief throughout this land and his assistance and advice will be a loss, to the many who had learned to depend upon his segacity.
Scnutor Dill. Dem., of Washing ton, proposes that a jury of twelve be selected and have seS* before them a certain number of bottles ?f 3.2 per cent beer. The jury shall then proceed to drink and an audience will observe whether the 3.2 brew has any effect upon the participants. Tlie selection of the jury might be quite a factor in the result, for with certain ones it would simply be a costly experi-ment-costly merely as to the amount of hop they could consume without showing any outward evidence. It will probably take more than a jury to settle the liquor question which was one of importance two thousand years ago and will be one of importance two thousand years hence. Intemperance, however, is not alone confined to drinking. A person may be lutemperale in eating, or thinking or talking or exercise. The word temperance covers a wide and much abused field. -Columbia CityPost.
— _— I No President of the United; States ever completed a term in I that high office with more satisfaction than must have come to I Calvin Coolidge. At the close of his career as President, a degree of prosperity existed unprecedented. His prestige was such that it was generally assured his parly would disregard the third term tradition and renominate him. but with characteristic simplicity, he
issued his famous statement: "I do not choose to run,' and all efforts to draft him proved fruitless. Since that time however ho has written much, spoken occasionally fe and worked incessantly to render aid in every way he could that his country might come through the depression and tho sun again shine upon a happy land. Tho board of county commissioners has appointed Charles J. Voglewede as a member of the board of trustees of the Adams County Memorial hospital, to succeed Frank Heiman, who has served since tho hospital was built and who declined reappointment. Mr. Heiman has proven a valuable member of the I board and Mr. Voglewede, who is
recognized as one of Decatur's ■ leading business men, will serve . wisely in this important post. The i selection is an excellent one and i will meet tlie approval of the peo- . l>Tc'fif Adams county. The income tax reports have ari j rived and as usual are causing a ! few headaches. There would be >1 . few to bother about it this vear if it [ I were not for the fact that congress j has changed the exemptions so that now a single person with a net income of more than $1,060 must pay four per cent on all over that, while the exemption Tor married people has been cut from $3,500 'to $2,500. The corporation tax is 'now 13%%. > .I ~ — The Indiana -legislature is off to ' a good start and if Governor Me- ' i I Nutt and I.jeutenant - Governor | Townsend will keep the members j moving until their program is put i through we are sure tue people ■ I will arise as one body and say
“well done, good and faithful ser- ! vants.” I Os course every one here is ' happy that the state highway com- j mission has taken over the road I from here to Willshire and from there west through Monroe to the Wells county line. It will mean the saving of maintainence on about twenty-two miles of road and will mean excellent pavements over ( these important arteries of trade.
Yectr.rday was -he latgesl subI scription day since the campaign I opened and we are hoping to break that record today and tomorrow. This Is the time to renew and we hope every one who takes the paper through the mails will do so promptly. And again this nation has not a single living ex-president. For some reason those who fill this great position do not seem to live long. Mr. Wilsou was stricken before the end of his second term, Mr Harding died in office and Mr. Coolidge lived but four years after he gave up his task. This county has received a check jfor $36,511 from the state, our share

By HARRISON CARROLL "IWpyrlsbt. 1933, Kln< Features Syndicate, Ine. HOLLYWOOD, Cal., J From now on, when you get into a newsreel picture, you may be teach- ' ing some Hollywood star how to act. CarlLaemmle, Jr., young boss of Universal, ■ has instructed the newsreel hK 3 cameramen of MBy '\ B his company to r-I be on the lookout k. I jk for shots of peo- Bk "'♦jO pie showing their reactions to various emo- WjBF tional stimuli. BR iJTyUgr.. These shots will lie to the BBOjafjjK Hollywood stu- MQMMk.4 dio, and when , similar situations come up in Carl ( a story, the en- Laemmle, Jr. tire cast of future Universal pic- 1 tures will be asked to examine these real life studies of human emotion. The first celluloid text-books se- > lected for the novel acting school are scenes of the grief-stricken men and women affected by the recent mine disaster in Moweaqua, Illinois. ■‘There is too much mugging in pictures,” declares young Laemmle. "I believe that art can be made as realistic as life. This new plan may help us to achieve that end.” One of the better wisecracks of the week was made by Bert Hanlon. A certain Hollywood star was pretending to be very reluctant
about signing autographs in front of Al Levy’s Tavern. “Look at that,” snapped Hanlon. “And you know darn well he’d be klau tu sign liu auuigtaph uti » bubble/’ In these days, its a tonic to see anyone optimistic and happy. Marjorie Rambeau is the personification of both The other day I went out to visit Marjorie and her husband of a year, Francis Gudger. She looks five yearsTrounger than when I saw her last and she radiates contentment She told me: “If I ever did anything decent and right in my life. I’m being repaid for it now.” Many times after her marriage and retirement from acting, I have wondered what outlet Marjorie found for her abundant energy. You’d never guess what it is—-needle-point. While her husband was hunting and golfing. Marjorie taught herself this feminine art. She has become very pioficient. I’ve seen a bag and a tapestry to prove it. Now, of course, she is back in Hollywood to make her return to the talkies. “It’s rather a thrill." she said, “and besides I wanted to epent the holidays with mother."

to make another picture for Charles) R. Rogers. As a former vice president of the old Samuel Gofdwyn Company, her husband knows about and sympathizes with the feelings of actors. But they have a rendezvous with hunting pals in the late spring. Once the Hollywood interval is over, Marjorie will return to her needle-point. HOLLYWOOD PARADE: Claudette Colbert is leaving for New York Tuesday—that is unless she yields to the persuasion of the Edward Small Company, which has been pleading with her to play the feminine lead in “I Cover the Water-Front.” You hear around that Max Miller’s fascinating book will be greatly changed in its screen form. The produceis hope, however, to retain the flavor of the original. With a big New Year’s celebration planned, Director Tay Garnett had to leave here Saturday on the Chief, his destination Gem any He’ll direct the interiors for Universal’s “SOS Iceberg” and get the picture into shape. Patsy Ruth Miller plans to dispose of their Hollywood house and join him later in Berlin. In a letter from Nice, Sidney Chaplin says he has several offers from producers, but, to date, has not even had a talkies test made. He asks questions about Hollywood, but is indefinite about returning to this country. . . Here’s an illuminating item. The play. “Clear All Wires” was done in a single set. When Lee Tracy does it as a picture, however, it will have 48 sets.
