Jail deliveries in Oklahoma, Kansas and other wester-’ states. Suppose some of those partisans will be charging it to Pleas Greenlee or A! Feeney. Indications are there will be plenty of candidates in the primaries this spring, some good and some not so capable perhaps, but winds the difference if you don’t register? You can’t have any tiling to say unless you qualify. Mr. Cole, a Peru attorney, with considerable backing Trom some of the boys, has tossed his hat into the senatorial ring and will be a caudidatt for the Democratic nomination. Now with two of them entered —Cole and Peters — look out for others and a free-for-all. There must be considerable money in the country yet. The government offered a billion dollars worth o' U. S. securities and ■ they were over subscribed three ami a half times, indicating that whatever Is necessary along that line can be raised when the time comes. It lias been ruled by several county clerks that yen must give your age in registering i-r Indiana. Os course some contend that you can cheat a little on that if you want to, so you keep it over 21, but after all you have to swear to the statement an 1 its perhaps best not to take any chances. - — The birthday party ball to be | h< Id here and in thousands of oth l cr places next Tuesday night is not | political .'or is it the purpose to particularly popularize the President. He doesn’t need that. This is a campaign to raise a fund for the Georgia Warm Springs Foundation and thats to aid those afflicted with tnfa.dile paralysis. Frank Heller of Hartford township came in voluntarily and gave one dollar to the President's party fund, because he believes in the cause and wants to do his share. That same spirit, would make the fuml from this county be. what, it ought to be, if engaged in by others who no doubt feel as Frank does. One of the finest projects under Ute civil works administration in Indiana will l,e the improvemeet and elimination of railway crossings. The iist, includes the Erie

railway and the proposed work will take care of some four or five crossings In this county. Such an improvement means the saving of , lives and much safer driving. The annual report of the city of ' Decatur shows the condition, financially. to bo par excellent. We doubt if there are many municipalities in the entire country, that make a better showing. On January Ist, the city did hot owe a dollar, excepting 125,000 bonded inj debtedness. which cannot be paid i until due and had a balance, totallI ing more than $130,000. In this year of 1934, after going through the world’s worst depression, that’s something to crow about. Sen. J. C.

I will give the principal address at I the mid-wuiter meeti-.g of the In-. diama Democratic Editorial Association. in Indianapolis on February 17th. The program will include a number of features and indications > are that this will tie the largest meeting ever held by this old or-I ganizatio-i which for years was the very backbone of Indiana demo-' craey. Better send into Democratic i headquarters and reserve tickets. I ■ ■ ■ - Those in charge of CWA work in 1 Adams county will appreciate sug- 1 gestions of new projects that will keep the force of men busy. It is the desire of the government to keep this woik going until May Ist; and to do that projects must lie al- 1 lowed by the state managers. What do you think will be the best improvements? Do you favor the trimming of trees? Have you something else in mind? Would you feel the money better expended if spent on the highways? Its important that we do this work wisely. If you have any suggestions. get in touch with Will Linn, county manager for the CWA. Hej will appreciate your cooperation! and sppiairt. Geneva, Berne, Monroe. Pleasant Mills. Linn Grove, Williams.

By HARRISON CARROLL Copyright. 1134. o» King Features Syndka’e Inc HOLLYWOOD, .— Worried but determined, Evelyn Venable, Paramount’s “unkissed” star, last night boarded an eastbound tram to tight for the continu-

ance of her screen career. The actress’ father, Professor Emerson Venable of Cineinn a t i, has 1 summoned her home. He wants ; her to quit HolI lywood and to return to the i stage and the interpretation of Shakespeare, on whom he is a nationally known authority. This latest development in

1 fbe strange career of the 18-year- | old player follows the studio’s plan to cast Evelyn in “Double Door,” | recent Broadway piay, which is said I to have been suggested by the lives of the Wendell sisters, New York’s millionaire recluses. 1 Professor Venable, who made Paramount agree not to put his daughter in sexy roles and who nearly took her out of “Death Takes a Holiday” because he objected to a love scene with Fredric March, is opposing the new vehicle. He says it isn’t worthy. Paramount argues that the script doesn’t even violate the spirit of the agreement. Just how it will end depends upon Evelyn’s persuasive powers. She wants to please her father and, being a minon she must yield to him j anyway. When Gracie Allen and George . Burns pulled it at Emanuel Cohen’s party, a group of celebs were panicked. Gracie: “Did you know my 1 brother was held up by two men last night?” George: “For how much?” Gracie: “Oh, all the way home!” This Cohen party, given in honor of the honeymooners, Sandra Shaw 1 and Gary Cooper, was one of the season’s best. The boss of Paramount lives in Fred Niblo’s former home on top of “Misty Mountain,” and overlooking Beverly Hills. The i winding road was sign-posted and . arriving guests were met by whiteelad parking attendants who took 1 | care of the cars. Inside, the rugs I in the large living room had been t rolled up and there was an orchesi tra to provide dance music. PingI pong, billiards, and other games . were available downstairs. ’ | Guests also got a stellar bill of ' entertainment with Jack Oakie. W. 3 C. Fields, Dorothy Dell, Lanny Ross and Bing Crosby doing numbers. Sharon Lynne, in Egyptian hair- . dress and sandals, drew comment from Cecil B. De Mille. Gail Patrick divided dances between Josef Von Sternberg and Adolph Zukor. s Mae West and John Lodge did the [j evening’s longest dance together. c Ernst Lubitsch, his eyes like bright * buttons, was frightened off the floor ■ oy a tango. The last star didn’t o leave till all hours.

; Interesting that New York experience nf Vivian Gaye and Randy I Scott. They call it "the lost adventure.’’ The two had been invited out to Ben Hecht’s house for dinner and he promised to send a car for them. Randy and Vivian got back to the ! hotel a little late from tea. They | asked the doorman about the car land he ushered them into an imI pressive town-model. | Five or six blocks later, Randy I noticed a crest on a rich fur laprobe. He and Vivian then noticed that everything about the machine was the last word in elegance. They knew Hecht was a successful writer, but they were a little worried. Kandy asked the chauffeur: “Are you sure you were waiting for us.” The driver said yes, he was ex.pecting two people. “But whose car is this?” persisted Randy. “The Grand Duke Dmitri’s” was the startling reply. Back at the hotel again, Vivian and Randy got the right car this time—one of small and popular make. But they still wonder what would happened if they hadn't discovered the crest and had gone right on. QUICK GLIMPSES: Biggest laugh of the week was when Lowell Sherman, deciding that his guests needed a laugh, donned a brand new dress suit and top hat, and took a header into his swimming pool. . . .
