We are getting ready for a good old fashioned calithumpian parade and heaps of fun for every one.. The farmers would have given something if we could have had some of these fall rains during the summer, but it seems we don't have much to do with the distribution of moisture and sunlight. Its splendid the way the local people are asking for Sparkling Crystal White sugar these days and don't forget that the proprietors appreciate it. All they ask is the loyal support of our people. They will do the rest and have demonstrated they will do it just right. This county has received $1,281 as the share of the intangibles' taxes, which will help carry the expenses here. When the new plan gets to working smoothly, you will find that the burden of taxation has been distributed in a manner much more satisfactory than under the old method. We hope that along with the improvements being made on the road between here and Fort Wayne, along No. 27, the state insists that a center line marks the way. It is one of the toughest roads to drive on dark nights. There is much traffic on it and with a stream of lights approaching its difficult to tell just when you are over tar enough or too far for safety. The week-end brought another heavy toll of deaths as the result of accidents in which automobiles figured. We seem to have had an unusually large number of these tragic happenings the past few months and many believe that the only thing to correct it will be four lane highways, with one way traffic and overhead or underway railway crossings. President Roosevelt is firm in what he believes and brave enough to tell the people what that opinion is on matters of importance. He feels that poor aid should come first from the township, then from the county and state and then if all else falls, from the federal government, which is correct. Remember that the smaller the unit of government which operates these charities, the cheaper it is and don't console yourself that when we get aid from Uncle Sam we don't have to pay. Some how and some time we do. The first pay roll at the sugar factory wid be met this week, employes and truckmen being paid up to the 15th.

And along with this in December will come the payments to farmers en the $4 guarantee with additional settlements later, adding many thousands of I dollars to circulation here. Its a ! great thing and we should and do appreciate it. We wish to extend at this time our most profound congratulations - to our Federal Government for the I greatest and most unselfish attempt j to distribute amongst those in want and suffering, food, fuel, and cloth- ; ing. Poverty in this great flourish-' ing country has been like a cancer ' —different only in the respect that the means and wherewithal has always been possible to effect a cure. This cure is about to take place—whether 100 per cent successfully or whether ohly partially so, nevertheless, the Utopian action on the. part of our Administration is cer-I tainly to be commended. —Business ! and Investment. .Mr. Hitler seems to be running l Germany just now and there is . much support and enthusiasm for l his methods. Whether it is wise to disregard the rest of the world on the disarmament program or not, only the future can answer. Some believe it is while millions are fearful of the results. There is much about the whole thing that indicates war in Europe and once that is resumed, no one is wise enough to even guess what will happen or what nations will be drawn into the mix-up as happen-1' ed during those memorable days of 1914 to 1918. France is keeping I cool it is reported and they may 1 j well afford to. That nation or any i ' other we know of can not afford to j get into the expensive and (jisas- ’ trous business of fighting. It al-j ways was 'hell'' and now more so than ever. ♦ • ! . i Answers To Test | Questions — Below a.-e the Answers to the Test Questions Printed on Page Two. • —• 1. Thomas Preston. i 2.

CENTRAL HONOR ROLL ANNOUNCED Twenty-Seven Pupils Are Listed On tirade School Honor Roll The honor roll at the Central school building for the first six weeks of th® first semester of t school, was announced today., The names of 27 pupils are entered on the honor roll, nine of whom , are leaders and 18, diggers. The unusually small number of pupils on the honor roll for the ( first six weeks period is due Io the difference in the grading system, which has raised the 1 standard of student work. Five grades are used on the re-, port cards this year: A shows the pupil does unusually good work and Is one of the leaders-of the group. This letter is equivalent Io the A plus, formerly used. B, shows that the pupil does accur-' ate and complete work and shows progress. This grade Is equiva-J lent tp an A grade of last year. I (’ shows the pupil's work is good! i some days, poor others; in general i is of average quality. D shows the j pupil barely does work required ' and F denotes failure to do work i required. iFbllowlng is the honor roll for I the first six weeks: Leaders Marguerite Staley, Betty Cook. 1 Marjorie Massonnee. Barbara “HAD CONSTIPATION SINCE BIRTH OF MY FIRST CHILD” Then Mrs. King Discovered All-Bran We quote from her voluntary letter: “I have suffered from terrible constipation since the birth of my first child — 9 years ago! I have tried everything and nothing had any lasting results. Very reluctantly I tried your ‘All-Bran’ with no faith in it at all. Much to my surprise, I have not had to take any medicine since starting to use All-Bran, 4 months ago.”—Mrs. Doris Eyre King, 16 Abbey Road, Oxford, England. Laboratory tests show All-Bran contains two things which overcome constipation: “Bulk” to exercise the intestines; vitamin B to help tone the intestinal tract. The “bulk” in All-Bran is much like that of leafy vegetables. Inside the body, it forms a soft mass, which gently clears the intestines yX wastes. Certainly this is more natural than taking patent medicines — often harntfuk Two tablespoonfuls daily are usually sufficient. If not relieved this way, see your doctor. All-Bran also supplies iron for the blood. At all grocers. In the red-and-green package. Made by Kellogg in Battle Creek.
