The elections today may not de-1 cide much politically but it will be appreciated just as much by the winners no doubt. Tax paying time is over for another six months and those who ! have attended to this little but' very important duty, no doubt feel j relieved, if not in one way, then ; in the other. If a fellow met that safety train I coming down the highway he would i probably think it had skipped off j the tracks somewhere and feel like cutting across a field or climbing a tree. The Citizens Telephone Company, about the livest organization engaged in that business that we know of, will publish their 1934 directory on January Ist, starting off a new year with an up-to-the-minute list of all subscribers. Two prisoners at Michigan City and two at Pendleton tried to escape yesterday but were caught. There is not much chance of that now. when every guard realizes that if he is responsible for a prisoner going tree, he will have to hunt another job. There may be some thing wise about the farm strike in lowa and other western states, but we can t see it. There are times in history | when some foolish acts brought: l etter results, but just now when every one is trying to help the farmer, the laborer, the merchant and the manufacturer and when we appear to be making some progress. we fail to understand what benefit there can be from killing a farmer who is trying to market some of his product so he can pay liis honest debts and keep going. Whatever else you may say of General Hugh Johnirm, he is no coward and he is answering his critics, blow for blow. And the best part of it is, he knows he is right. He would not stand for interference wuh the freedom of the press and says so and be is making a brave fight against great o lds to help every citizzen of this c .untry. He declares we are oneg.iarter of the way out of the mire and if we want to go the rest of the way, we can do so by pulling together and being fair. And if we don’t, we slip back. It's up to us.

continue to look after tha work until It is finally completed, It look* very much a* though there would be considerable activity on that , route in the very near future. It will be a splendid improvement and we of this community feel very grateful to Mr. Adams and the members of his commission for their cooperation. With wages of from fifty cents an hour to $1.20, we predict they will not have much trouble In securing all the workers necessary to proceed as rapidly as they care to and the weather permits. Texas Guinan. Broadway girl and hostess of modern night clubs along Broadway, famed for her saying* and who devoted her life to making people feel happy and gay, died in Vancouver, wise-cracking with her last breath. Many who knew her well, really loved her, because as they claim, she was always good to them. Her greatest delight was in helping some down-aud-outer and while many derogatory things have I been said about her, it now bei comes evident that “there is so i much bad in the best of us and so ' much good in the worst of us ' that its never wise to be too vindicative in referring to those tn the lime-I light. For fifty years John F. Snow | I has been a leading figure in thisl i community and it will seem strange i indeed not to see him passing ! along the street, to listen to him j during political campaigns or to i seek his advice on matters of itn;>ortajice to the city and county , He was a historian and his volumn j on Adams county is referred to frequently and quoted for accuracy by those who for any reason delve into the past in this territory. He was an educator and for fourteen years served as county school sup erintendent, taking especial delight I in those days in aiding the young , people who were striving to follow the avocation of teaching as a profession. Mr. Snow for a number of years engaged in the real estate business and many important deals were consumated under his direction. He was an active citizen al-1 ways and an earnest and sincere worker for whatever he aliigued himself with. The comradship between he and his good wife was a beautiful and ideal one and to Mrs. Snow and her sons and to the rest of the family, are extended the sympathies of every one. He lived a long and useful life. His work I is completed and his memory will I live on. . o ♦ ♦ Answers To Test Questions Below a.e the Answer* to the Test Questions Printed an Page Two. ♦ ' —. —• 1.

— Red Cross Appeals for Members !

THE 1933 poster of the American Red Crees, distributed nationwide, is an appeal for an enlarged membership. Resources were never more vitally needed than in this fourth year of economic distress. Memberships, which cost one dollar or more, are used to support the unemployment relief work of chapter* and national organization; nationwide disaster relief work; health work in hundreds of communities, with special reference to preserving the health of mothers and children; safety work through teaching first aid and life saving; welfare work through six million school children who are members of the Junior Red i Cross: and one of the most tmporItant tasks ever to face the Red Cross—keeping up the morale of
