Gary, the steal city of Indiana, is half way back to normalcy, accord j Ing to reports from there and that's belter than many Lake county citizens thought ever could be again. It's rather too warm now to think about next winter, but those who are the most prudent ‘will store their fuel now when you can save money and get the best. As long as the kidnappers confine their efforts to millionaires, most of us won't be frightened, j They apparently wish to piek out i victims whose friends can raise the] ransom quickly. We are sure if the proposed | Wabash river improvement by the j federal government is presented to Congressman Earley, he will be glad to give every assistance he can. From wh.it we can hear, the average fellow dispises the new state income tax to about the same degree he wa3 pleased when he | found his real estate aud personal j lax cut in two. It's difficult to, please them both ways all the time, j The wheat harvest has started! and while the yields are below average, the returns w ill be fairly | good because of the advance in j prices. Corn and beets are look , in? better than a fortnight ago and many fee! the outcome will be the best financially in a number of years. And boy, will that help? If you owe the state less than ten dollars on your income the past two months, it will not be necessary to file a report at this time, according to information from the state department. Giudually they arc* getting the new plan worked out so it will be the least inconvenient for every one. Grain prices are going up and the farmer is coming back. Those fortunate enough to get a good crop this year will fiud it one of the most profitable seasons in a decade and those who do not wiH at least be encouraged by the fact i that they can sell what they have at a figure more than double that of last year. And that's some improvement. President Roosevelt is going to see that his various departments function for the good of the people and to keep in touch with what they are doing, hgs organized a council which will meet once a

Looks like another good , move. 1 Apparently there Is a spirit of good will and cooperation iif the ■ Adams Post of the American Let gion for no list of candidates was filed against the regulars placed in ; nomination some days ago. The 1 {Mist has grown and prospered tho ], past years and the present officers 1 ] will retire with the appreciation of members and the public In general. The election will lie held the 21th. No one objects to friendly criticism of the'slate or national administrations. That's within the right of every citizen and is often helpful, but there is a heap of difference between that and the criticisms usually offered, solely for political purpose*. Those in j charge of the government now are j giving the people a chance again I and if the folks are wise they will support them until the new deal is completed, especially as long as it is helping to restore prosperity. The township trustee at Summitville has started something. He has caused the arrest of two youths who deserted the civilian conservation corps on charges of failing to support their parents. Those who enlisted in the conservation | work agreed to send $25 monthly jto their dependents and in this : way the parents of the two boys ! were taken off the township relief ' rolls. Now they are back in Sumi mitville and are once more a burdI en on the taxpayers. They will get little sympathy. The belief will persist that tho two were provided work and were unwilling to accept it. — Newcastle Courier- j Times. The Indiana state highway commission director announces that ! important routes will be widened. : Pavement thirty feet wide and ' of way rixty feet wide are ] the new official standards. The ! director anticipates some criticism 1 but contends that “it must be done j in the interest of safety and economy." He says that “under pres- ! ent conditions when a road is completed it starts to depreciate immediately because it is not wide enough to carry heavy traffic' That is an acceptable general rule. Fifteen feet of right of way on each side of thirty-foot concrete is necessary, the director says, because "water from side ditches undermines the foundation of the highway and increases upkeep costs" and because 9m>torists need better visibility and space “to get out of traffic if something goes wrong.” —South Bend Tribune. « ; • Answers To Tesi Questions Below are the Answer* to the Test Question* Printed on Page Two. « • 1.

By HARRISON CARROLL i Cf>pyrtghi, 1933. King FulurM Byndlcmte. Ine. HOLLYWOOD —Here’* one for the book. Dave Hutton, husband of Los Angeles’ famous woman evangelist, Aimee Semple McPherson, has

written a motion picture story and is trying to peddle it to Paramount for Mae West. What is more, his literary effort is receiving serious consideration. Miss West has read it and the manuscript is now in the hands of the story department. Hutton’s opus deals with the

adventures of a run-to-seed opera singer, who has had he;- face lifted and who is fighting the losing battle against age. If he succeeds in selling it to Paramount, and for the Star of “She Done Him Wrong,” Dave’s picture can’t get under way for , some months. Mae has just started a new film and she plans to make another as soon as it is completed. After that, she has those personal appearances to do. And, consider- > ing the important money at stake (one theatre in De 3 Moines offered SIO,OOO a week) she hardly will consent to go to work immediately in a third film. The other night a group were re- > vivlng the memory of that grand buckaroo, the Late Wilson Mizner. Mark Kelly, Hearst sports ace and 1 one of the few men qualified to * write Wilson’s life story, recalled this one; Mizner, on one of his many trips , abroad, was asked to write a revue to be put on in London. Being chiefly interested in having a good 1 time, he pat his memory to work and borrowed freely. The show was a hit. Insistent cries demanded: “Author! Author!” J, W’ilson finally came out, smiled _ j benignly at the audience ! “Ladies and gentlemen,” he e j drawled, “as large as is the stage ? | us lUia theatre, it couldn't begin tc hold the authors of this piece.”

Colleen’s future plans are a little vague. She was supposed to do a M-G-M picture, but that fell through. The lease on her house is for four months. If the star returns here before that time, she’ll live with her mother.
