Evidently Unde Sam still has plenty of credit. The sale of a $950,000,000 bond issue was heavily over subscribed, regardless of the fact that the certificates bear only 2t4% interest. Please don't' forget tiiat every hundred pounds of Crystal White Sugar used means the employment of oue map one day. If every body in this county uses nothing else the next year, it will mean much to the laboring man. the farmer and every one in the community. Who ever says tire big sugar week here wasn't a success, just don't know what he is talking about. The sales were wonderful and the general spirit manifested was unanimously favorable. Needless to say. it will take some smart salesmanship to keep the Adams county housewife from using Crystal White for a long time to come. Cheese week opens Monday. Get ready for it and remember that every pound of cheese used, means employment for some one locally. The smartest tiring these days is to support the institutions which are trying as hard as they can to keep their force employed. Us a national week but we can help by using locally made and sold products. Watch for further publicity. Malicious gossip is one of the worst things we know of and we wonder why it doesn't occur to folks that loyalty is a much better rule to follow. Think it over when you think of passing along an ugly morsel of rumor, which you know in all reason is untrue and which you couldn't possibly prove if required to do so. Another pay roll to those engaged in the civic works program, totalling today over $4,700 was paid here. Talk as you please, its the best thing we have heard of in the way of restoring confidence, bringing back the morale of the men and helping the women and children. It's so good that a lot of tolks axe smiling for the first time in four years. BUY CHRISTMAS SEALS l ■' Greetings.; SHOPPING DAYS TO CHRISTMAS

You bought sugar this week for th* same reasons you should buy cheese next week A campaign is R being made over the nation to in- _ crease the buying of this article to use up the surplus that the factories may continue to operate. Its as fine a food as there is, you can use it to advantage in every ? way and its Just another part of t the great effort to keep the wheels of progress turning. 2 1 0 Hon. 11. Earl Peters is now a full 0 „ 5 fledged candidate for the Demo- ® cratic nomination as United States j senator, his formal annotuleement ii having been made at a banquet given in his honor at Fort Wayne. He has opened headquarters in Indianapolis and declares ire will set a hot pace for those who propose to enter the race. So far he is the only announced aspirant but there 1 are rumors that there will be a halt dozen going before the gong really sounds. ■ I Hundreds of Decatur people are ' low in spirit today, because of the ’ passing of Jimmy Touhey, one of * the most lovable characters of the community. Totally blind, he has for years cheered others along the rough pathways of life by his humJ orous philosophy and his sound ad- : vice. A staunch Democrat, he deI fended with a loyalty rarely exhibited. every position taken by that party and many a heated argument in which be seldom came out the worst, occurred around his breakfast table, during campaigns. He was a great Jim and needless to say, will be missed. In the light of past events, it is not surprising to read that the Federal reserve system is failing to support the monetary policy and is even bucking it to the extent of ceasing its governi ment bond-buying operations. It is no secret that the Federal reserve regards the monetary policy of devaluing the dollar to increase prices ' as economically unsound. Be that as it may. the suspension of its "bond-buying policy is taken to ' mean a rift between the reserve board and the treasury. For several months the reserve banks have been buying government bonds at I r the rate of about thirty-eight million dollars a week, the idea being to make more ready money availi able to banks and at the same time • tending to strengthen, or at least t hold firm, the bond market. It is now reported that the treasury itself may undertake to buy its own bonds instead of the reserve , system. Thus the two departments ( will be working at cross-purposes. ( but this is nothing new when it is . remembered that, while asking lib- ! eralized credit, the liquidating . policy has continued unabated. . Where this lack of co-operation ! will lead will be interesting to watch. —Newcastle Courier-Times. —O CARD OF THANKS The family wishes in this manner to express appreciation to the neighbors and friends who so kind- ' ly assisted us during the illness i and death of our husband aud fathi er. also all those who sent flowers or furnished cars, and to the min- ’ ister for his consoling words and : to all those who in any way assistj ed.

: CHEAPER PLANES s SEEN IN FUTURE I. wn-i i.i.i—■■ , Washington.— (U.R) —Air-minded American citizens, kept earthbound - 1 by the size of their pocketbook, y will find a note of encouragement C in government plans now going forward to make cheaper airplanes a and flying safer. Eugene Vidal, director of Aeronautics. Department of Commerce, intends to present to airplane ‘ manufacturers the results of his - questionnaire submitted to me- , chanics, commercial aud civilian pilots throughout the country. Re- ‘ plies to the questionnaire showed t that more than 5,500 would buy airplanes if the price were approximately S7OO. Twenty-six thousand ' airmen are yet to be heard from. If a market for 5.000 to 8,000 such planes exist, manufacturers agree that quantity production would 1 bring the price down to S7OO or . SBOO. The second government development is the radio direction finder, a device which makes flying much simpler both for the novice and the experienced pilot. Briefly, the finder makes ft possible for the pilot to fly a straight course to any broadcasting station, and since there are 592 such stations in the country, the average pilot would hud it difficult to lay out a course on which tlie finder would not be useful to him. o — • Household Scrapbook —BY—ROBERTA LEE Baby's Covers If the baby is restless and kicks off his covers during the night, instead of trying to pin the covers to ] the bed. merely dress him warmer. 1 iA warm undershirt beneath hie' wooly night suit, or a little sweater over the night suit is often sufficient.

Nice Swimming Season Goes Begging In Cuba Havana.— (U.PJ — While many a shivering inhabitant of the Northern Hemisphere would enjoy the; j chance to take a nice swim in the i sunshine today, the Cubans who are iu a position to do so, do not. Here the residents will tell you that there are only three months . tit for swimming—June, July and August. When September rolls, around, the bathing season in end- j ed for them. As a result, the pool at the Na-; tional Hotel these days is use.l only by a handful of American resi-' dents, or tourists, plus some few Cubans, who have been convinced that their traditional ideas on' swimming are wrong. The beach, at Marianao also is much less fre-, quented now than in summer.' Nevertheless, the temperature of the water is ideal. Get the Habit — Trade Home

Potato Bugs Like Petunias EAST LANSING. Mich. <U.R> - By combining their flower garden with their potato patch, farmers may grow better crops of potatoes, Michigan State College entomologists believe. Potato bugs will leave the potato plant for a petunia plant any time, they explained. While many farmers would rather have petunias eaten by the bugs than their potato plants, spraying is a more practical method, they advised. — o High School Enrollment Up SALT LAKE CITY.

A 1.16 per I cent decrease in enrollment of elementary grade students during j the same period was attributed in i part to a decrease in the state's birth rate.

SWIMMER LOSES HER 3 TITLES London.—(U.R>—Miss Joyce Cooper, the Bi ktbih champion aad (Mympie swimmer, has decided not to defend her three titles this year. lu this decision she has brought to a I lead one of tbe greatest controversies in British swimmiug history, and incideutally follows the example of women champions la other sports. Miss Enid Wilson, the British woman golf champion, was the latest of these to announce that she will uot defend . here title in 1934. Miss Cooper now has definitely . lost her 440 yards, 100 yards, and 220 yards titles. Her reason is the | comiohiat of a large faction of British swimmers — namely, that title races are distributed among a number of towns throughout the , country, and throughout the season. They aftd Miss Cooper advocate one championship meet, at which all ths titles cas lie contested — something on the lines of the Olympic games.
