Objection was voiced on the grounds that the advertiser misstated a fact, tried to mislead the public and, probably in a spirit of being too optimistic, claimed to have sold dozens or larger quantities of this and that article. Newspapers generally carefully watch statements in advertising copy. However they do pot set themselves up as the court of justice, assuming that advertisers are honest and wish to stick to the

truth, knowing that the public cannot be ‘‘kidded’’ and is wise to things that are going on. Truth in advertising is essential and the most successful business owes its growth and large patronage to the policy of truth in advertising. A flippant use of figures and adjectives in describing or enumerating articles or merchandise, is not committing a serious crime, but to become too bouyant and make claims which cannot be substantiated is not fair advertising. The shortest message, truthfully told, speaking the readers own language is the best advertising message anyone can print. General Johnson pleads for a restoration of confidence in your government that prosperity may be restored and says there are signs of a broad advance every where. When we believe in each other again and when we work in unison, the depression will be over and we will all be happy. Just now the biggest way to help the cause a ong is to buy the things you need and quit worrying about the after while. Manufacturers and most merchants have made great effort to meet the requirements. They cannot so continue unless you support them. The test is on and its up to each individual Bitter controvfsies may arise over the drafting and operation of certain industrial codes under the national recovery act. There should be general indorsement, however, of the decision by Gen. Hugh S. Johnson, recovery administrator, to How One Woman Lost 20 Lbs. of Fat Lost Her Prominent Hips— Double Chin—Sluggishness Gained A Shapely Figure If you are fat how would you like to lose it and at the same time gain in physical charm and acquire a clean clear skin and eyes that sparkle with bouyant health. Why not do what thousands of women have dotie to get rid of pounds of unwanted fat? Take one half teaspoon of Kruschen Salts in a glass of hot water every morning before breakfast and keep it up for 30 days. Tou can help the action of Kruschen by cutting down on portry and fatty meats and going light on potatoes, butter and cream. Then weigh yourself and see how many pounds you have lost. Kruschen Salts are a blend of 6 salts most helpful to body health. Beat of all, a bottle o-f Kruschen Sults that will last you for 4 weeks costs but a trifle. Ask Holthouse Drug Co., or any druggist for a bottle and start to lose fat today. It's the safe way to reduce but be sure you get Kruschen—your health conies first.

bar NRA doctrine* from the public schools. Thia step was revealed after it was learned that private publication of a book wan conI v , template*!, the volume to be sold to schools interpreting the aims of various emergency organizations 1 created by the Roosevelt administration.—lndianapolis Star. An anonymous writer wants to know why we want the taxes rais- , ed, which of course we don’t. There • Is no reason we know of why we , or any one else should desire high- • er tax rates, except that the neces- ' sary expenses may be met without i default and without piling up a debt that will only have to be paid later. We have been trying to publish the facts so that every citizen will know just what is going on and why. According to a story out of Indianapolis, they are considering, whoever they may be. to move Pleas Greenlee from secretary to the governor to some other position. there being some complaints about the distribution of patronage. If they can find some one who can distribute 3.000 jobs among fifty thousand applicant* and have them all feeling good, that’s the boy for the place. Get a can or two of fruit ready for the committee in charge of the annual fruit drive for the Adams County Memorial hospital. The campaign is in charge of the Civic Section of the Woman's Club and any thing you can give will be duly appreciated by these ladies as well as by the hospital board and ofti- -

cials and most of all by those who < will be patrons of the hospital during the coming year. Emil Wallen of Albany, NewYork. made a bet he could drink a quart of “white mule’’ in two gulps. He won the bet but lost his life, his inert body being found an hour or two later in a cell where he was placed after he became helpless. I It doesn’t pay to be too game when I tooling with any kind of dynamite. It looks as though as soon as seven more states vote, the eighteenth amendment will be repealed.

When an illicit still was raided down in Georgia this week, the officers were surprised to find a large NRA sign on the door, indicating shorter hours and higher wages. Ain't that somepin?

With retail stores, now under a code, opening later than previously there is no need for the signal lights eary in the morning. Heretofore the lights have been used from 7 a. m. on. Now the lights are turned at 8:30. German Men’s Club Face Quiz By Nazis Berlin. — (U.R) — German men’s clubs have not escaped the “harmonization" treatment applied to all other branches of public life, and in their case too, the “aryau clause" has appeared. The formerly exclusive club of the People's Party, to which Gustav Strasemann belonged before ' his death, now has become “The Reich Club of Jan. 30, 1933.” The Nazis assumed power on that date. Its mombers recently received a t questionnaire asking them to attest their present party, past partt’, . and, significantly, their "function ’ and membership number” in the Nazi party. Further they must declare that “in the sense of the law" i they were of aryan descent and

that they were not Freemasons. Another club requires, in addition to the aryan statement, a declaration that the member in question was not at any time affiliated with > "a Marxist Party, or a political, I economic or cultural association under Marxist influence.” Under the Nazi definition, any German citizen passes as aryan if he can prove that none of his grandparents or parents were Jewish. o Bullfighter Franklin Does Literary Work Madrid.— (U.R) —Sidney Franklin, the Brooklyn bullfighter, has finished his translation and transcrip-1 tion of "Currito de la Cruz," a nov- i el written by Alejandro Perez Lug-' in. It is said to be the outstand-1 ing book of its kind regarding the! j bullring. The Brooklynite, who is under-! going treatment for wounds he received in the ring, said he expect-' ed Scribn-er's to publish bis first literary effort. He spent the past ‘

It’s her first trip to the California resort and she is taking Dixie Martin along for company. They’ll spend their time doing a lot of resting. You’ve heard of children being cradled in theatrical trunks and raised backstage. Dean Markham tells of the 5-year-old boy, of vaudeville parents, who was meeting normal youngsters for the first time in kindergarten. The teacher started to explain a drawing exercise. “Now you can tell this dot and this dot and this dot and when you get through you have a little mouse.” The kid gave her a straight look and snapped: “So what, for Pete’s sake!” ■ Behind the wheel of a new 16cylinder robin’s egg blue sedan, ' George Raft is headed eastward, with his trainer and bodyguard, ' Mack Gray, to spell him on those long stretches of highway.

Unless they decide to cut it out, a satirical echo of the Winchell-Jolson fisticuffs will be heard in the motion picture, “Broadway Through a Keyhole.” One of the characters, Blossom Seeley, says: "By the way, didn’t somebody out in Hollywood take a poke at Winchell?” And Heroine Constance Cummings replies: “Yeah, I think so, but I can’t remember his name.” HOLLYWOOD PARADE: Clarke Gable lost 22 pounds in his recent illness.
