Aoeidents and more of them some serious and many lucky. It always happens over a double holiday and probably will continue until there is a better plan of traffic. Os course we are going to lick the depression. The old son-of agun is on the run now. If we hold together we will keep him going until he jumps off a cliff. Nearly seventy thousand Indiana business men have signed the code and the other fifteen thousand will do so this week. It must be 100 per cent. A woman doctor discovered the cause of sleeping sickness and with the greatest scientists of the country, will seek a remedy which wi’l successfully combat it. That's real progress. Farmers should at least inform themselves as to the merits of the wheat plan. Those who have are convinced it will prove helpful. This is the final week if you wish to take advantage of it. A new York newspaper suggested that funds be raised to give a medal to the fellow who made Huey Long take the count. Hundreds of dollars have poured in and now they are really trying to locate the bird who proved so handly with his “Jukes.” Labor Day is over and there were more smiles yesterday than on any similar occasion in years. The “forgotten man” Is receiving the attention promised him during the campaign and when he is taken care of, every one else will be able to get along. There is no desire to punish any one. even though he doesn't agree with the NRA program, but it should be remembered that this is a campaign to he'p every one and the biggest part of it is cooperation and determination by each individual. If we all pull together we will get some where and soon. The county commissioners and county councilmen are working on the budgets today, making every effort to take care of the tax payers while keeping the government boat going to the advantage of ’ 3|jin OU St uorpapaa / J - u 1 in W.

every one. These men are tax payers themselves, have the same interest yon bavoamd will be glad to consider any suggestions given In r a friendly manner, that will help in the present serious situation. The rates here will be lower than • the average. Don't stop buying. Please ret member that the NRA can only succeed if there is a greater distri- > bulion of money. Purchasing power • will make every factory wheel turn ; and keep every business man hustl- > ing. This is a BUY NOW month J and it Is well to remember that • every penny spent will help. It’s a great effort and deserves your Support. Remember that so far the burden has been on the manufacturer and the merchant who has added men and increased number of employes. To keep that plan 1 going it is of course necessary that business improve. That's up to the people. If they patronize those ■ who are helping tn this movement ' | they will help themselves and every ■ | one else. “Many townships and other units of government fail to take into con- ■ sideration the full amount ot money they will derive from the new taxes, such as the gross income and excise taxes. These taxes will make a sizeable reduction in the property tax rate if they are right- ; ly app'ied. There is the excise tax. producing about $1.70 per pupil, or 1 the equivalent of S6O per teacher. ; This is beside the receipts from the gross income tax. which for the school year of 1934-35 will produce • SSOO per teacher, because we have 1 a year and a naif in which to collect the tax. Here in Newcastle ' the excise tax will amount to more ' than $5,000 on the basis of 3,000 j pupils. The gross income tax will I amount to $43,000. based on SSOO ' each for 86 teachers. Here is a total of $48,000 that can be deduct--1 ed from the tuition fund that is to ’ he raised by property taxes. This Is equal to a tax of 35 cents on each SIOO of property that may be deducted from the proposed tax levy for tuition purposes. The same thing applies to every township and town in the state, that is they can deduct $560 per teacher because of the gross income and excise taxes. This will make a t sizeable reduction in the school tax . rate if the new funds are consider- [ ed as they should be. —Newcastle . Courier-Times. .

Meek, chief of the I bureau of forest extension. o New Wagon Ends Backaches Amherst, Mass. —(UP) —A new preventive for backache has been developed by Massachusetts State College engineers, and it's neither liniment nor pills, ill’s a new type of farm wagon with an unusually low bed which is especially well adapted to use in hauling silage corn from the fields, apples from the orchards, or hay from the pastures. The low bed eliminates much of the high lifting which causes tired twisted badks during the silo filling season. A 30 per cent saving in time, tests show, also is possible through use of the new wagon.

ances together of Carole Lombard and Wiliam Powell don’t mean a thing. There will be no reunion. I asked Carole and she broke the silence that she has maintained since the swift parting that sent her to ’ Reno for a divorce and Bill into seclusion at Arrowhead Hot

p'l F v _j| i Carole N Lombard

Springs. “We will never go back together; I feel I can say that positively.” That’s Carole’s answer, and you couldn’t put it plainer. The blonde . star is still seeing Powell because he is asking her to, because she still likes him and because that is her I idea of civilized divorce. “I think it’s fine," she said, “when I two people who have separated can meet like friends. Hard feelings, criticisms, would be too awful.” So, I'm afraid it’s no use. Carole and Bill will go their separate ways. It happened in the forecourt at the “Dinner at Eight” premiere. A prominent young socialite was forcing his way through the crowd. “Who’s that?” someone asked. “That’s Drexel Biddle Steele.” "Oh, yeah,” said Donald Stewart absently, “what did it close at?” Tired of the hospital, Lilyan Tashman has persuaded her doctor to let her go home. She is under the care of a nurse and is looking forward to Ed Lowe’s return. Wonder what that young gas station attend- ' ant would think if he knew that the pint of blood he gave was for Lilyan >1 Tashman? They introduced her to him simply as Mrs. Lowe. A hos-

Salty Ham When boiling ham or tongue and ' it s' ems particularly salty, change th ■ water when it is half done and : boil again with fresh water. This will do away with a great deal of, the salty taste. A Breakfast Dish Eight or ten fresh cherries s rv- •' i ed on a grape leaf for breakfast ■ makes an appetizing dish. o Worn Tires Become Shoes Portland, Ore. —(UP) —Oregon's worn out automobile tires are sold mostly to junk dealers, but not all of them. Nearly every ship clearing this port for China carries loads of used tires, which the coolies and soldiers over there cut to pieces to fit their feet. When tied on by ' cords, they make quite serviceable footgear.

pital towel swathed around Lilyan’s head prevented recognition. Lupe Velez proudly displays Johnny Weissmuller’s latest gift to her, a slender platinum circlet set in vari-colored chip stones. The trick is that the stones symbolically spell “dearest.” A row of diamonds —“D”; a row of emeralds—“E”; a row of ameythists—“A”; a row of rubies-—“R”; with more emeralds, sapphires and topazes finishing out the sentimental inscriptions. HOLLYWOOD PARADE. Lila Lee’s young Son, Jamea, is staying with her until he returns to St. John’s Military Academy. Jimmie is 9 years old, has dark hair and eyes like Eila’s. , . . Hollywood’s ever-present snapshooter, Hyman Fink, crashed Katharine Hepburn’s secret getaway, and quite by acci-

dent. He came to the airport to see Ruth Waterbury off and bumped

into the elusive , Katharine, who was flying east by the same plane. La Hepburn wore a white summer coat and a navy blue stocking cap. And pity fan magazine editor Ruth Waterbury. She had a seat next to Hepburn and couldn’t interview her because of the noise of the motors. . . . Carroll Graham,

co-author of “Queer People,” is finishing a serious novel, “Bordertown.” It’s about Mexicali. .. . Hollywood is preparing to give Gu» Arnheim a rousing reception when the popular orchestra leader returns to the Beverly Wilshire Hotel. The date is September 26. DID YOU KNOW— That Maurice Chevalier has been an electrician, carpenter, pripter and nail-maker in his varied career?
