Governor McNutt is keeping the state assembly o» the move. He proposes to carry out the platform pledges, going on the theory that's what the people verted for. The new national administration | « will start off with a special session ' of congress which is a good thing , for there are a lot of things that ; • ought to be done and by the new congress. Make it short and snappy and you will please tbe people.
Governor Paul V. McNutt has resigned as dean of law at Indiana University, probably feeling that if lie attends to the duties as governor as the job should be attended to. he won't have time to tell the law students hew to reach the! highest office in the state. ~ | Senator Egan of Gary has intro-i duced a bill providing that women can not work more than eight hours. That sounds encouraging. We didn't suppose any body in Gary, man or woman, was com plaining about having too many hours of work. There was an important meeting in Washington today when Mr Hoover and Mr. Roosevelt went i into a huddle regarding the foreign' policy. The former will soon unload this nasty problem while the latter will take it on, evidently ■ with confidence that he can handle it to the satisfaction of every one inclined to be fair. The legislature has passed a! bill providing a one year moratorium on the sale of real estate' against which there are delinquent• - taxes That means there will be r no sale until 11)34. but it should not cause any one to think they will get out of eventually paying. The year will slip around before' you know it and then with your taxes doubled for the two years, I it will be just that much harder to pay. Meet your taxes as soon as ' you can. The time thus extended should only Ire used as a last resort. The proposer! income tax for Indiana will prove most unpopular As presented to the legislature it calls for a tax of one per cent on an income of *I,OOO, two per cent on *2,000 and so on up to *6,000 which at present is the limit. The average fellow who really has an income of more than is needed to keep his family decently, does nos I object to a reasonable tax but this one would work a hardship on many who are trying to make ends meet on a meager income. Os course there Is heed for additional funds and no one wants it to be again loaded on to real estate but y Von can borrow up to *3OO from u* in any of these ways: 1. Call at office—where we J will be glad to explain • our service. 2. Phono - ■■— . Telephone applications will receive ft prompt attention. I 8. Tear out ad, write your name and address across it, and mail it to us. You will find our service prompt, courteous, confidential, * helpful and economical, franklin Security Co. Over Schafer Hdw. Co.

i there is surely some method less painful than this to bring the ; necessary relief. If an act now in the legislature becomes a lAw its going to be . rather tough for the chain Mores. The schedule provides that where. [one outfit owns more than twenty stores, the tax will be *l5O peri store. Incidentally the bill adds j two dollars to the ordinary store ' tax. making it *5.00. When we get
out federal income taxes, state in- ; come taxes, gasoline taxes, automobile taxes, sales taxes, state income taxes and real estate and poll taxes settled for, what are we going to do for some thing to eat and wear? | The smiling face of Dr. J. S. I Boyers appeared in last evening's ’ issue of the Daily Democrat, reprinted along with a greeting from the doctor to he Indiana State Board of Health in the bulletin and commemorating the fiftieth anniversary of the organization, i He looks as well as he did in the I years when he was a familiar fig-1 ure here, interested in our troubles ' and always willing to advise and counsel. Dr. Boyers was a member e of the state board eight years, re- 1 | , s I cel vmg bis appointment throßgt) , the recommendation or Lew G. t Ellingham, then the secretary of state, and his record was one of ' the Rest made by any member dur- , I ing the half century they have ’ been organized . I Disappointed but not surprised. a many of our citizens have so ex- e pressed themselves as to Judge *' Lister’s decision favoring the peti- j ; tinners for tbe Wabash drain. For t years there has been an insistent effort to secure this improvement, j the plan originating with a few ti farmers in Ohio who desired an 1 i outlet for the water on their lands. ]. , The assessment for Mercer oounty 1 ,is less than *B,OOO while the esti- v r mates for this county are many times that, which seems unfair. 3 How the Improvement can be made v under present conditions is beyond - | the average persons power of reasoning. Who would take the contact, knowing that it the bonds do not sell, he must accent them and with no real estate market? It seems that might result. Attorneys for the remonstrators wili conJnue their fight and it is doubtful if any movement towards the big dredge job can be started for some time at least. In the meantime the supreme court of Indiana will probably be asked to rule on the various and intricate questions involved. o ♦ ♦ Answers To Test Questions | Below are the Answers to the Test Questions Printed on Page Two. 4 4 1.

Some high lights of the sermon: Many figures have been set before us to illustrate a spiritual truth. Hence the race. We must have speed and endurance to win. if we have not, there is no prize for us. The prize before us is eternal life with God. This race is a peculiar race from the fact that a large number of witnesses is present. Therefore we should run the race with patience and well. Let us lay aside every weigh t I hiring

Paul’s time a runner in training for jthe races had his feet weighted in [order that he might develope great! ! strength and endurance. Hence ; j Paul s figure of speech. But when [the time had arrived for the race.! jail weights were put aside. Trials : I and temptations overcome, increase i jour strength and endurance in the Irace of lite, in which all are enter-J |ed. The devil can weight a man' jdown even'before he begins training in the Christian life. One of the heaviest weights the devil uses is inertia, that which pulls down and holds. Inertia might be defined as spiritual laziness. Men have had visions of spiritual greatness but would not exert themselves to attain it. One developes his eyes to see quickly the things in which he is interested. Some ■ develope critical eyes and because of this can see nothing good in the church. These are weights that the devil has tied to us to slow us ■ down in the race. Let us throw aside every weight. It we have a besetting sin we must throw it aside. It will keep us from God. These sins will keep us from gaining altitude as the ice gathering on the wings of a plane and will eventually cause a crash. This ac- ■ cumulation of weights and evil sins will keep you from God. So let us throw aside every weight that does; so easily beset us and rise to level 1 in which God will be pleased to|
