A few showers will bring the' crops along nicely and again give hope of a harvest that will bring dollars to the farmers of this section. It has been a long time since a session of congress accomplished i as many worth while things as has. the special session which just adjourned. The record will stand a long time. Shades of William Jenning Bryan ' —the special session of congressi enacted sixteen important laws, under leadership of one man. The Commoner would have objected to one or two of them strenously if he could have been there. How about the weeds? They I will come fast now after a rain or two and the time to keep them down is before they get too much of a etart. Those who fail to look aftee-this will have to pay the street force for doing it. The prohibition repeal vote in In-I diana cost an average of thirteen cents for the entire state, which is lower than in general elections, owing to the fact that only three members for each board was provided in the law. While the enrollment at the Daily Vacation Bible Schbol is a little less than last year, the interest is said to be greater than usual. Attendance is good and the high standard adopted several years ago is being maintained by those in charge. Congress has adjourned, after putting through the President’s program almost to the letter. Occasionally some disagreements occurred but when they came to the actual voting, members seemed anxious to prove their loyalty. Mr. Roosevelt is a leader and is so recognized by the people. Harry G. Leslie, former governor has quit the coal business, according to reports and will go into the refrigerator lin -, from hot to cold. He will be in charge of sales for a Michigan City company and expects to locate there. His friends believe he can make good in any thing where he has a chance. Six nations which owed this country about a hundred and fifty million dollars have paid us 'eleven million.

fact that they finally recognize the fact that they owe us, will satisfy many. It is the hope that the Lon- * don conference works out a pro- . gram that can be carried out. After all, the predictions that the state was going to have to worry ’ about a deficit, here comes William ; Storen, state treasurer, with the ans nouncement that he will have over $3,000,000 on hands the first of the month and won’t have to, borrow i 1 from the auto or license*fund or from any other place. We are coming out of the depression more rapidly than any one thought was possible. Blanks for the Indiana gross income tax reports, due between July Ist and 15th, as of your income for May and June, are now at the offices of state license bureaus. They are not very complicated and will not require a lot of extra bookkeeping, although we will of course ; have to tie con ect in our stateI ments, which are given under oath. ’ After we get used to it, we prob- > ably won’t mind it a great deal. — James I. Farley, congressman from the fourth district, has concluded his first service with distinction. He supported the ad-: ministration faithfully and assisted ; in many ways. As a member of ;the banking committee he has had Jto work hard and while doing that and attending the many sessions, i he has found time to render many favors to those of this district who have taken various matters up with I him. He will find a hearty welcome . awaiting him at home and many new friends who have this opportunity to measure his ability. o * TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY From the Daily Democrat File ♦ — ♦ Mrs. Joan Niblick leaves for Au-1 I burn to attend a convention of Mis- j ; sionary Society.
