The business men there have organized a St. Joseph Forward Association and propose to go and to ■ go now. They have chipped i-JI $3(1.000 to be expended in utilizing the economic resources in the direction of recovery, dedicating j themselves to tile task and pledging individual and collective energy. Here is a paragraph of the circular which shows bow they reason it: "No individual who depends entirely upon outside sources of help and inspiration ever accomplishes a permanent improvement in his character or capacity. And so it is with communities. The very consciousness of dependency upon outside sources ot help is a deterrent to sound achievement. A community which does not assert its own power over the development of its resources never rises to the level of masterhood in dealing with its economic problems — it never acquires that vitality, that spirit, so essential to social and economic success. - ’ It’s just two weeks until election and there’s much to be done. All the details, such as printing the ballots, organizing the election boards, preparing the booths and otherwise getting ready for the biggest primary ever held in Adams county, must be looked after. It means work for some one and plenty of it. but by May Sth every thing will be in readiness to conduct a fair and impartial election. During the four and a half months from November 15 to March 31st. the exact amount of federal money paid in wages in Indiana hv the state civil works administration was $22,336,304.64, it has been announced by Governor McNutt’s commission. No state fared better according to population and you may use your own judgment as to whether or not it helped.

May Ist is Clean-Up time, but don’t wait until then to start. You have something to dd if the part the city take“ in this annual event , is a success. Each property owner should see that the yard Is raked und cleaned and that tin cans and ’ other rubbish is placed in barrels or boxes, so it can be handled. Then the trucks can easily do the job in a few days and we will be ready for the good old summer time. The Republicans will hold their state convention June sth. a week ahead of the Democrats, thus giving the enemy the opportunity to call their bets and raise them a stack or two. They will also very foolishly nominate a candidate for lieutenant governor on the theory that Mr. Townsend is serving illegally. which is just some more campaign bunk that won t go over. Bluffton Is doing some splendid improving and will continue to be the "parlor city" of this part of Indiana. Handsome new lamp posts down town and the widening ’ of the two principal streets will I add much to appearances, while furnishing employment for a large number of men. John Dillinger is sealing his fate 1 with each new murder and eventI nally he will pay the penalty. It !is regrettable that to close his i career, many good citizens must sacrifice their lives. Every one associated with him should like- ; wise be punished io the limit and t without backing up a single inch. Congressman Farley and Clarence Jackson, two good ones, will be on the program at a Democratic banquet al Auburn, at 6:3® tomorrow night. Run up and get the latest information on things in which you are interested. What would a week-end be, when the weather is fair, without a long list of automobile casualties? It’s a terrible thing that in our wild rush tw treasures, we sacrifice life and limb and endanger every one else on the highways. Colonel Lindbergh has received $470,000 sinc_- his 1928 flight to Paris. That’s quite a lot of money but most of us wouldn't and couldn't fly the Atlantic for ten times that. ‘ so what's the use to growl. I Evelyn FrecHetti, one ot Dillinger’s "molls’’ warned the federal officials to "watch out for John, he’s the big. |>ad wolf," and perhaps she knew what she was talking about. Spring is finally going to come ( through after a tough struggle and ! .'fay flowers will be as plentiful as I ever. o

boiling over about late; rumors and 1 breathes threats , of legal and physical reprisals unless they stop. “People in Hollywood haven’t the nerve to fight b a ck, but I i have,” stormed the peppery little star. “I feel sorry for the next person who tells or prints a lie about me or 1

Johnnie. “First, I’m going to sue them for all the money they have. Then the real trouble begins. If it’s a woman, I’m (roing to beat the life out of her. If itfs a man, Johnny is going t to do the beating.” Lupe has been burning for weeks about one unsigned gossip item that appeared in a local paper. She tells ‘ me she’ll pay SSO to anyone who’ll supply the name of the writer. ''lt’s hard enough to make a marsi riage last in Hollywood without having lies told about you," exploded the star. “Maybe I’ve talked too much about Johnny and me. Well, I’m going to lie mighty careful whom I talk to after this and they'd better not misquote me.” Personal to Lupe: You know, of I course, that I’m a jiu-jutsu expert I and that Mrs. Carroll always carries a knife. ~~ — ► They say that alcohol dulls the brain. If so, a certain Hollywood j writer must be the exception that i. proves the rule. The other night, after taking 5 manw 'irinks aboard at a late spot, " he gofmtxed up with a party of e people and found himself in the Laurel Canyon liome of a perfect stranger. A photograph album lay on a table at his side and he opened it up to the picture of a haughty e dowager. t “Who is this fussy looking old 1 eagle?” he asked his neighbor. Just then the host came up with drinks. He said icily: “That happens to be my mother. Came an awful silence, then the writer turned upon the assembly a j Stricken face.

"Is there a gun in the house?” he inquired gently. Isobel Jewell goes to work at Paramount where Lee Tracy also will don makeup. A good actress, | Isobel should fit into any studio. I But this disposes of that ballyhoo i about her not wanting to work on jthe same lot with Tracy for fear . people would think she got the job 'through his influence. Oddly enough. Paramount is | readying a series of pictures for . Lee without any contract having I been signed. The whole thing is predicated upon a handshake. Several weeks ago the local papen headlined it. A man called various radio stations and asked them to put on a Bing Crosby record at a certain time because he intended to commit suicide. More touching to me is this story which did not reach the headlines: A Los Angeles family—father, mother and six-year-old child—were great Crosby fans. The youngster always came in from play to listen to the star’s radio hour. The other day he started in as usual. He was so proud because his parents let him turn on the dial. But as he opened the door, the family dog also made a rush to get in. The child was

thrown aside ■ and fell, fracturing his skull. He died a few hours later at the hospital. Next morning the grief-strick-en parents called the Paramount studio. They wondered if Bing would sing at the funeral. I think these parents should be told that, unless he reads it here. Bing

doesn't know yet of their request. The studio and Bing’s manager felt that if the star did sing, it might he misunderstood. Some might say he was looking for publicity. So that is why the excuses. DID YOU KNOW— That the late director, Mauritz Stiller, was responsible for the screen names of both Grets Garbo and Carl Brisson? He changed Greta’s from Gustafson and Carl's from Peterson.
