Mrs. Wynekoop acts very much as if she didn't care a whoop what happens to her if she can convince the jury and the world that her son is ijnocent. The Republicans won the election In Vermont this week by 8.000, which is about one third the average plurality ia past years. Call it a victory any way you want to. John Factor, better known as ■ Jake the barber" seems to have the nerve. He is going to do his best to convict the Touhey gang for kidnaping him. Ho might make a good sheriff or chief of police. Adams county dentists and two public health nurses will examine the teeth of the school children and will report results to the parents. This is an important work a d in those cases where immediate treatment is advised, it will be. well to look after the children. Politics is beginning io warm up and there are indications that the primaries will be even more inter- . rifting than usual. And that's the time to do the party fighting. Then after its all over, those who believe „ in the principles of their party should join hands and go on to victory. kt some counties the commissioners and the treasurer are setting aside all tax sales of homes for one year, which is the right spirit if its legal. There is danger of sonTe mix-ups in these matters but if we save the home of the man about to be driven out, it certainly appears to be the liumau thing to do' The saving of a half million homes in this country for the owners between now and July 31st is a big undertaking but Chairman Fa :ey of the corporation says it can and will be accomplished. The administration is trying to help those who are willing to help themselves a little and the efforts should inspire confidence in every one who is inclined to be fair. Sugar beets is one of the best crops the average farmer who has the proper soil can grow. It may require a little labor and attention but it will bring profits and that's tile greatest thing just now or most any other time. The Central Sugar Company has made good and will continue to do so if given the support to which they are entitled and which we are sure they will have in this locality. John Dillinger is apparently tire Jesse James of today. Just about

the time the officers think they have him frightened Into hiding, ho appears with his machine gun and a confederate or two and pop goes p every thing. He seems to want to die with his boots on and If he keeps at his present business will 1 very likely have that wish corns 1 true. Wonder why they don't shoot . at his head instead of his vest? 1 It Is regretted by those who have anticipated the complete improvei ment of the Hanna-Nutt man park. I that the city will not have the ' funds this vear with which to build a shelter house. The city officials would like to do this but owing to the fact that other and unexpected expenses have arisen, and to which ' they aro obligated, it can't be done just now miles some means of raising the funds is worked out by some one. The beautiful park should be and will be improved as rapidly as it can be done and once complete, will attract attention from many miles around. There is no doubt that the Central Sugar Company will secure the desired 12,500 acres and there should be. no doubt of obtaining j this within a radius of thirty miles or less. Those who raised beets this year are more than pleased with results and with the excellent treatment accorded them by those in charge of the field and the factory. Beets can be raised at a good i profit and after the farmer has learned the business, it is about as easy as any other product of the farm. The contracts should be 1 snapped up as rapidly as the field men can get to the growers. Rev. Morris H. Coers of the ' Thirty-First Street Baptist Church ' in Indianapolis recently discussed 1 Governor McNutt and during his sermon said: ‘‘lt is certain that the ’ present Governor cannot be com- t pared with some of his predecess- *• ors. He has not been impeached, nor sent to prison; he has not scrapped the Constitution by tak- * lug away the religious liberty of a ( group of individuals, nor by align- < ing himself with those who foster ‘ race hatred; he has never been ac- c cused even by his enemies as be- 1 ing a connoisseur of liquors rather than of knowledge and wisdom. , His mind is that of a master, his theories are far in advance of his time. < t o ♦ • , Household Scrapbook i —BY— I \ ROBERTA LEE ♦ —— > [ Candied Kumquats i Candied kumquats are made by 1 boiling them in water until the skin f is tender, then cooking them in a 1 syrup made as follows: 1 cup of I prepared fruit, 1 cup sugar, 1 cup water.

Baby's Stockings There will be no holes and runs in baby’s silk and wool stockings if a loop of wide tape is sewed to the top of them.

Hollywoodites say that Virginia recently has yearned f6r the day* when she was actively engaged in a movie career and would like to return Co pursue the will-o’-the-wisp of fame on her own. Friends of the couple fear a reconciliation is doubtful, pointing to Gilbert’* past marital record as testimony that he is not the “making up” kind. His first wife was Olivia Burrell, whom he married Io 1918 and divorced in 1921. His second, Beatrice Joy, divorced him five years later on grounds of incom natibility. and his third, Ina Claire, did likewise in 1929. Gilbert married Miss Bruce in 1932. when she re nounced the screen to “devote my life to my husband and babies.” They have one child. Susan, who remains in mother’s custody. i

CHURCH REVIVALS First Evangelical Rev. J. W. Dauner, pastor of the Evangelical church at Kendallville, i who is conducting the revival services at the local Evangel! al Church, delivered a splendid sermon at the meeting Wednesday night. Young poples’ night was observed and special music was furnished by them. Rev. Dauner's theme for the sermon was "Urgent Reasons for Heeding the Gospel,'" whicn was based on the letter to the Hebrews. The four reasons named were: first, because the gospel was given to the people through Jesus; because of the greatness of salvation, wl.i.'i saves from sin, hopelessness and uselessness; the tendency to drift, down inherited currents, because of old habits, wordly customs and influences of sinful lives; and the last reason, because there is no escape from neglect. Rev. Dauner’s sermon for Tues-

! day night was on the theme. Shall be My Witnesses," an 4 pointed out why the people N |u be witnesses tor Christ. n f lt| that one who witnesses for (jjj bears testimony, gives evident the life he lives. The qutUificati of a witness were named a s lows: he must know somethin* peclally the historical fact*, graphy of the Holy la»nd. ths 0 acter and principles of Christ, k Christ and his saving power. ■' Antioch M.
