So far there seems to have been nothing worse than sharp business. Another proof of better times is the announcement that car loadings over the country increased in May over the same month last year. That’s the first time that has occurred in several years. How will Indiana vote on the prohibition question tomorrow? How will Adams county vote? It’s up to you as. voters. The returns will be received at this office tomorrow evening. Call 1,000 for the report. Don't think you are too busy to vote tomorrow. The question of repeal or continuance of the Eighteenth Amendment is a very’ important one and you should serve your country by expressing an opinion with your ballot. The passing of Cyrus H. K. Curtis. noted publisher, means the lose of one of America’s greatest citizens. For many years his Saturday Evening Post, Ladies Home Journal and Country Gentleman have led in their respective magazine fields and his thoughts, always conservative, hove helped the nation through numerous tight places. The general shake up at the state capitol under the new reorganization laws will occur the 30th of this month. At that time all members of boards arfd commissions and employes who have not been re-em-ployed, automatically go off the pay rolls and lose their authority. •By that time of course all those affected will know whether they are to remain or retire and it is expected the new force will proceed orderly with the important business of the great state of Indiana. Next Saturday afternoon at two o’clock in the Berne auditorium will occur the commencement exercises for the Adams county class of 1933 for the common schools. 1 here will b" 242 graduates at tnjs, the 27th annual event of its kind. R x»t township has the smallest number, with bet. six to receive diplomas, while Wabash with 38 graduates, has the largest number. J. L. Conrad will give the address and the affair as always will attract a large crowd. The schools of Adams county rank high and Clif

| ton E. Striker, county superintendent, has a right to feel proud of the record. The wet and dry campaign has been a very quiet one in this county and in contrast to the battles of the old days when such an event was considered the most interesting, important and exciting of all elections. What campaign has been made here has been mostly by contact. Several public meetings were held by those who oppose repeal but none by those who feel the amendment should be discarded. There is much argument in an orderly way as to the economic part of the proposition and James A. Farley, Democratic national chairman has issued a statement asking for repeal in conformance with the platform and for the purpose of reducing federal taxes. The question so far as Indiana is be settled tomorrow. So far all of the eight states where the vote has been taken have favored repeal. Father Seimetz in delivering an address to the graduates of Decatur Catholic high school, gave expression to a heartening and sobering trend in American life, recalling an incident preceding the inauguration of President Roosevelt as one of the omens of good. Prefacing his remarks with the apparent lack of dependence u-pon Him wfio guides the hand of all mortals. Father Seimetz referred to the example set by President Roosevelt as reason for still having hope in the nation. He said, “When a man before ho takes the highest office in the nation can find time to cast aside the arrogance of pride and humbly proclaim in silent prayer his dependence upon God. there is still hope for the nation.’’ This nation was founded by God-fearing men and builded upon the belief that a great Divinity shapes our ends. Although for a decade it seemed we were losing tract of the spiritual side, a collapse of the man-made program brought us to quick realization of a higher control. Household Scrapbook —By— ROBERTA LEE How to* Wash Slickers Slickers should be washed in lukewarm suds. Use a small brush on the very soiled places. Rinse in lukewarm water and place on a coat hanger to drip and dry. After the slicker is dry, a thin coat of chellac can be applied if desired. Garbage Pails Place a few drops of a strorg disinfectant in the garbage pail every few days during warm weather. It will keep it smelling sweet and will keep away prowling cats and dogs. Porch Cushion If the cushion of the porch swing is covered with attractive oilcloth, it will protect it from the rai*b and any soil can be easily wiped off. o * “twenty" years* AGO TODAY | From the Dally Democrat File George Schug entertains for Windfield Maddy.

This may be true, but which is the most important, having our nation wet and send the souls of man to hell and to get a few dollars, or to keep it dry and have a nation decent to bring up the coming generations in?

ft probably will be made in June. Paramount is in the negotiating stage for a picture to be taken on the Fair Grounds. Mel Brown will direct and the film is variously referred to as an educational tworeeler and as a feature production. Another possible entry is Columbia. For the past year, it has owned a story called “World’s Fair.” Walter Wanger and Fulton Ourslor authored it before they left this studio. Within the last few months, several other companies have been angling to buy Columbia’s rights. Final decision of the picture probably will be made by Harry Cohn in New York. The head of Columbia is due there now. along with Laurence Stallings who will accompany him to Europe. A group at Al Levy’s tavern were discussing a certain spendthrift movie star. It was P.oy Del Ruth who quipped: “When that fellow had money, he lived like a king; when he had no money but credit, he still lived like a king; now that he has neither I money or credit, he goes window- ) shopping.” ’ HOIAYWOOD PARADEt Al Joi.--on and Universal have i been talking business.

Berthold Viertel to look at Marlene Dietrich’s latest picture, “The Song of Songs.” Director Rouben Mamoulian ran the picture off for them. Which would seem to give point to the report that he will ’irect Greta in “Queen Christina.” Those divorce-court stories, which would have her 27 years old, are all wrong, says Joan Crawford. She insists it’s only 25. Juan was far from the assured screen star when she acted in this real-life court-room episode. “It’s not like the movies,” says Joan.
