We admit we don’t know much about the gold-buying policy but Its about as clear as the tariff question was after we had heard it discussed forty years. England will make a "token payment" on their war debt to this country on December 15lh. That’s a new one, but of course the seven and a half million is most acceptable. It signifies we presume that they still recognizes the fact that they owe us and would like to pay. i The town elections are over and the usual dope w ill now be written and discussed, but it will be well to remember that in most cases, the issues were entirely local and I the campaigns were not of the noisy kind which must be combated during general elections. The low bidders on the 527 highway project between here and Wiltshire was Meshberger Brothers of Linn Grove. That will assure work for local men for they made ihe statement openly that practically all their labor would be hired from this county, only one outsider being necessary. They also stat- j cl that they expect to start the 1 grading immediately and will do as much of the job during the next five or six months as the weather will permit. All of which listens goad. Business houses are requested Ity proclamation of Mayor Krick to close from eleven o'clock uuti' 12:30. noon, next Saturday, while the Armistice Day program is going on under auspices of Adams Post of the American legion. While it is Saturday and may be somewhat inconvenient, it is well to pay proper respect to this occasion and we can certainly spare an hour and a half once a year while the ! anniversary of the signing of a 1 face compact that stopped the most terrible v.ar in history is observed. And now comes the very important problem of handling hard liquors and no one who has* lived through the past few decades will deny that it is important. It goes into politics and into about every tiling else and so far uo one has fr.und just the exact means of doing it best. In this state Governor ft McNutt will do his very best to protect every interest and his committee of managers is being carefully chosen. The next year will determine much what is beet in the matter an<i the 1935 legislature will return to the old battle of adding precautions. The first snow of the season came yesterday and the winter draws closer each day. Wo should be prepared for it promises to be not the best cold weather period. e? <Z> l There is an honor —in business that is the fine gold of business. W. H.

Many are still out of employment and while the township, county, state and nation will do all they can to prevent suffering, it bet , come* the duty of every Individual Who cau aid to <lo so. There must be no more suffering than possible. 1 In Adums county we are more fortunate than lu most places and we believe that the wheels will keep : going to an extent which will permit every one to get along fairly ! comfortable. | The pioneers continue to pass on to that better world where troubles are unknown and where all is peace and happiness. The death qf John Henry Dlakey of I'nion township, has saddened the many who know hint as one of the excellent citizens of this county. He was active in his church and his community and frequently called to service for the county. Os good judgment and with a keen interest in those affairs which were of general importance, his opinion was often sought and carefully 1 weighed. He was one of those who aided in turning his section of the county into a veritable Garden of Eden and bis home was frequently the gathering place for happy folks. We Tlote the passing of another splendid neighbor and citizen. Administrators, of poor relief should pay close attention to the relief applications of young men i who departed from the civilian conservation corps without a good reason. These young men have returned to their communities and in many cases have been free In their ; condemnations of a project through I which President Roosevelt hoped to remove their families from the poor relief lists. The primary purpose of mobilizing the young men was to assist the local communities in caring for their unfortunates. The greater part of their pay was diverted to their families so that they would not be on the relief lists. The young men who refused to remain in the camps, because they objected to camp regulations or to the assignments which I were given to them, showed an ' antagonistic attitude which should not be encouraged, but condemned. When they appear at the relief stations the authorities should let them know that public opinion does not approve the course of an individual who refuses to work to support himself and his dependents. These young men belong to a class of loafers that are unworthy of the aid which the public is extending to worthy and unfortunate citizens. They must learn that the man who spurns work when it is offered to him has no right to expect support from the taxpayers. — Richmond - Paladium. o ' e — -* | Household Scrapbook , -BYROBERTA LEE ♦ -♦ Fire Preventive If a little alum is added to the water in which children's clothes are riused. it will render them less liable to catch fire.

By HARRISON CARROLL Copyright 1 533 by King Features Syndicate. Ine. 2 HOLLYWOOD —Ever * since Charlotte Henry was chosen ( to play “Alice in Wonderland,” Hollywood wise- (

acres have j shaken their 1 heads and said: 1 “Yes, but what after that?” 1 The answer J came yesterday when Norman 1 McLeod, direc- 1 tor of the Lewis Carroll fantasy, went to the : front office of i Paramount and put in a strong plea for the stu- ’ dio to dust off ! “Mrs. Wiggs of the Cabbage

- V - Charlotte Henry

Patch" and to let him do it with Charlotte as lovely Mary. Does it surprise you to know that this young actress was slated for the role when Paramount considered the picture a couple of years ago? She was the sweet-faced youngster who played junior Durkin’s girl in “Huckleberry Finn” and who made her bit stand out so sharply that almost every critic in the country searched down the program to find out her name. That time, the sudden decline of interest in children's films left Charlotte knocking at the door of success. Now she’s in. For a laugh, Mack Gray, George Raft’s shadow, told a group in the Paramount commissary: “Well, Georgia had a headache this morning but I took a pill and in two hours he was all right.” “Who is that guy?” demanded Ginger Rogers as Mack walked away. “That’s George Raft’s body- ' guard,” she was told. “Bodyguard!" snapped Ginger, “You mean his stage mother." Johnny Weissmuller is all goosepimples. In a scene for “Tarzan and His Mate” yesterday, an irritable lioness went for him. The animal’s trainer, Bert Nelson, leaped to the rescue and managed to subdue his charge. But not before he was clawed about the head and shoulders. After treatment at the studio hospital he was able to return to the set. ' Everett Crosby explains why he didn’t want brother Bing to croon for Paramount in "Alien; in Wonderland.” He cites the example of “The King of Jazz,” where Bing also played a bit but where theater men recently ballyhooed his name when the picture was revived. Seeing Bing for only one chorus with Paul Whiteman’s Rhythm Boys, fans wrote in and complained. Everett is afraid this might happen again.

Reading a newspaper account of a football game, comedians Wheeler and Woolsey discovered that Colgate has a left halfback named Woolsey Wheeler. Investigation discloses that the young man is 22 years old, is a senior and that he got his name because a Miss Woolsey married a Mr. Wheeler. Anyway, the film comics have adopted their namesake. On the eve of the Colgate-Tulane game, they wired: “It takes two of us to make a team, but we hear that you are one all by yourself.” I like the story of Mae West’s secretary who called the studio the other day and plaintively appealed: “If you see Mr. Timony or Miss West anywhere, will you tell them that that regiment of cadets is standing out front waiting to make Miss West a colonel.” QUICK GLIMPSES: Big boy Williams made a trip to Nevada several days ago, but he denies he and Barbara Weeks were married at that time. ... The reason Paramount rushed Fredric March into “Death Takes a Holiday” was because his contract is up November 11. If a player starts a picture, however, he is legally bound to finish it . , .

INDIANA TOWNS VOTE HEAVILY Results Generally In State Follow Previous Political Trends Indianapolis, Nov. 8. — (U.R) — I Despite the fact that politics wag j not seriously involved, votiug was j unusually heavy in town elections throughout the state Tuesday. Most of the towns which held; elections confined their activities | to choosing officers for the next | two years. Three communities j however voted in favor of municipal ownership of public utilities. I Greentown voters approved a plan to construct a $40,000 municipal water plant with money borrowed from the federal public works board, 216 to 66. The tow n lias objected to its I present rates for many mouths j and has been unable to get a re-j duction through the public service commission. The loan will be secured by revenue bonds against the plant itself and will be for 25 : years. Payment of principal will j not start until after three years, j Cicero citizens voted 267 to 36 I | in favor of acquiring a light plant j I while acquisition of a new water i { works and municipal light plant at windfall was favored by three to one. Rising Sun, which elected its ■ town officers yesterday, voted today on whether to acquire municipal light and water plants.
