Don't miss the indoor circus this week. It s a lot of fun and for a good cause, so you can enjoy yourself while helping the others. Tlie ninth annual farmer's banquet will be lieid tonight at Monmouth and from what we hear, it will be a splendid one. with a program of interest and excellent entertainment. The dinner will be served by the ladies of Monmouth, assuring a delicious and bountiful ; repast and the whole program will i meet the approval of those who attend. Barney Baruch, capitalist and j advisor to Mr. Roosevelt told the i on <_te yesterday what he consider-! ered necessary to savrf the country and told them some things that if to lowed, will no doubt help. He is opposed to inflation,, cancellation of war debts and spending money we don't have and be remarked: "Take the hungry men off the world's payments and let people smile again.'’ Governor .McNutt, is the kind of :i man that gets some where beea.ime.he does things. He is getting ready to reorganize the state government and his first change will W to place the state police, fire marshal and criminal bureau ol identification under one division. It will simplify the affairs of those offices and be operated with mm h less expense. That ought to please the people wtv must pay the bills. Mr. McMillen will tell you all' about the plana for reopening the big sugar plant here, at a meeting for those interested, to be held at the Catholic school auditorium. Friday afternoon. It will be the most important meeting held here in a long time and those In charge are anxious that 1,200 or more farmers and others who wish to cooperate, be present. There is no catch to this, no stock for sale and the company is well financed to carry on Hie plant. They ask only good-will ami we have promised that for tho < ntire community. Activities will begin here soon and it means much Io every one within a radium of t wenty miles or more for it is the first concrete start towards better times Toll your farmer friends tu attend this meeting. The chief objection to the proposed ban on hitch-hiking is that it unquestionably would be little more than another dead letter on the .statute books. Motorists and officers would not care to invoke the law against the average hitchhiker, especially it lie were not of- ' naive in making requests for I ransportalion. The proposed law v mid penalize the individual the driver fi ph ised Io assist and would not eliminate other types. Automobile owners are privileged to exercise discretion in their selection of passengers. The hitchhik-

In other instances the driver whoj does not desire strange company ( can ignore the thumbfers by inter- ( i-stiiig-4iimself in the beauties of the countryside. The hichhiker is not a legislative worry.—lndianapolis Star. ! I The Associated Press yesterday presented a .summary of financial statistics that will be impressive to all who think. The general tendency in most of the key Industries has been upward for the fii*st time since 1929. Th.e improvement was not such that the individual would be likely to notice that there had been any favorable development. But the trends are in the right direction. Commodity prices have shown an upward tendency. The stock market prices have improved. The net operating revenues of i the railways showed an increase in December, over the same period in' the previous year, for the first time, since July, 1929—A1l of which in-1 dicates that better times are in sight, that we have reached the bottom of the depression and are headed upward. The rapidity with which each community is largely up to the citizens who make it up. Let’s get busy and keep boosting. Start with giving the sugar factory your heart cooperation. It is hard to believe that more 1 Americans have lost their lives in auto accidents in the last fifteen years than have been killed in all the wars in which this country as i a nation has engaged. Yet figures just released show this statement' to boa fact. During all the wars 1 in which this country has participated -the Revolutionary, the War of 1812, the Mexican war. the Civil War. the Spanish-American and the' World War — Americans killed in action or who died of wounds num- < bored under 30(1,00(1. During the last fifteen years—a period approximating the total duration of these, six major wars—Americans killed in automobile accidents within the 1 piled States or who died of such injuries have numbered 325.000. Last year 715,000 auto accidents' claimed 29,000 lives and 904,000 were injured. Although deaths in 1932 decreased around 13.5 per. cent, fatalities and injuries actually .

increased per accident. These figures are startling and demand the attention of all thinking Americans. The matter of reducing this huge I toll rests upon us all. whether auto I I owners or pedestrians. Safety. I campaigns are all right, but their: results are not lasting. Extreme caution, at all times must be exer-, cised.—Princeton Clarion-News. o Music Lover Stole Record* Seattle — (UP) —A long-haired gentleman, who professed his love] for good music to a young attend-
