Rake the yard, get the old cans and-bottles in boxes. Help the city ; street force make next week the i best"clean up in history. The President says this revolu I tion- so much talked about since ■ Prof. Wirt let off steam a short time ago is one without the “R" In other words its evolution and conies Just in time to prevent the terrible upset of which some talk. The cold weather has held the i far flier* back some but in abou' I every field now you site them out I getting ready for the season. Hope ! every one gets a good crop and j that the prices are back where its' worth while. That’s the only sure road to prosperity. Those trusties who slip away from the state prison so regularly must be coached by some one and it would be interesting to know ■ just what is going on up there. The governor will probably find out before long and wlien he does, he will tell the people of Indiana about it in a most convincing manner. It has cost four million dollars less to operate the schools in Indi ana the past year than in die previous one, which is a worth while record and proof that those who have charge of this work, are doing their share towards keeping the schools going in a very serious de-: pression. Clean-up week starts next Mon-1 day. That’s when the city trucks i will begin gathering up the old I cans and other rubbish which you have properly arranged so it can lie taken away without the men in charge doing the raking and gathering. That should be looked after this weak so there is no time to | lose. Safe Pleasant Way TO LOSE FAT How would you like to SAFELY and HARMLESSLY lose 15 pounds of fat in a month and at the same time increase your energy and improve! your health? How would you like to lose your double chin and your too prominent hips and abdomen and at the same ’time make your skin so clean and clear that it will com- , pel admiration? Get on the scales today and see how much you weigh—then get a • bottle of Kruschen Salts that costs next to nothing and which will last you 4 weeks. Take one half teaspoontul in a glass of hot water in the morning—cut down , on pastry and fatty meats — go light on potatoes, butler, cream and sugar—and when you have finished the contents of this first bottle weigh yourself again. After that you'll want to walk I around and say to your friends, I "One bottlS of Kruschen Salts Is j worth one hundred dollars of any I fat person's money.’’ But refuse imitations—safeguard , your health—you lose fat SAFELY I with Kruschen. Leading druggists America over | sell Kruschen Salts —you can al- . ways get it at Holthouse Drug Co
Three or four cars from here atI tended the Democratic meeting at Auburn last evening and came home more enthusiastic than ever. Those who listen to the addresses and watch the enthusiasm at these events are convinced that this is a Democratic year and that the abuses being heaped by partisans who want office, will avail nothing. The boys and girls who will run the city for one day—May sth—ate now as nusy in their campaign as are the eighteen candidates for sheriff in one of the primaries. To I them it is just as important and they have the advantage of the endurance of youth. Go to it youngsters, fight hard, do your best but be good sports and smile with the winners. Candidates are digging in lor the final battle of the primaries and the next ten days will find them going day and night, seeking the preference of the voters. It’s a great game for them and for the people, who should use their best judgment in selecting those who will represent their parties and to serve the citizens of this city and county the next two to tour years. Clarence Jackson argues and with much force that while the state income tax may not be fair Ito every one. they come about as I near as any tax so far suggested. [ Perhaps with some changes to take < are of those cases in which there [is apparent unfairness. It would bo better than any thing so far suggested by the enemy. Don’t overlook the fact that those who are trying to drfVe the price of the American dollar down have a rurpo’se. Some of it is political and some is for the profit that may thus accrue to a few. Those [ who think that the middle class of people ought to be servants stop I at nothing to achfeve the end to i which they always travel To facilitate the handling of the voters on election day, the officials in charge hive authorized extra clerks and extra booths in the larger precincts, including five in Decatur, two in Berne one in Geneva I and West Root. This should make [ it possible for every one to vote | in the primary and to get the bal- ; lots counted without the loss of j too much time. We can’t imagine any thing much i worse than the plight of John Dillinger, who is being hunted- constantly by police officers representing a dozen states and the federal policemen. He is never a. ease, no difference where he is and hasn’t a chance to dodge the ultimate result. He knows he must face hie Maker and answer to a series of terrible crimes and seems determined to go on until he is shot down, lust Imagine what he must think each movement of the day and try if you can to think of some worse punishment. Almost the "hot spot’’ would be preferable. BY CHARLEY CRANT (

By HARRISON CARROL! OffTr'rM. King Feature* Syndicate. 1K HOLLYWOOD. Calif.. , r Filmland’s champion believer m horoscopes is Edna May Oliver, the long-faced comedienne, who plays the fearless school teacher in screen murder mysteries. ' ■ijs ' Since April ■[.#* 15th the actress £ has not taken a K * '’OFw step outside her ■ 2| home unless she pt -.» ? is accompanied * > by a 6-foot body- & Id guard whose e coat shows the , ■ obvious bulge of a concealed pis- ; 9 tol. The protector even fol- X, > lows the star ' - into the R-K-0 Edna May commissary and Oliver sits at her table. Wisecrackers, who twitted her about the new boy friend, finally got the truth out of the actress. She hired the bodyguard because her horoscope warned of danger from violence during the two-week period from April 15th to the 29th. The advice was to be especially cautions about entering and leaving the studio or any crowded place. The comedienne plans to leave for Europe as soon as she finishes her current picture. By that time the danger period will be over. Darryl Zanuck sent Sam, the studio barber, to the preview of Fredric March’s new picture, “The Affairs of Cellini." Later, he questioned him about the film. “It’s a swell comedy,” said Sam. “but will the ordinary movie fan know who Cellini was?” Zanuck disagreed and offered to bet the price of a shave that the first man to pass the barber shop door would be able tn identify the great sixteenth century goldsmith and lover. The first passerby was the janitor. Zanuck hailed him: “Do you know who Benvenuto Cellini was?” “Sure,” replied the janitor, “Fredric March.” * After living 14 years in the belief that she is an American citizen. Katherine De Milie learns from passport officials that she realty owes her allegiance to Canada. The youthful actress was the daughter of Edward G. and Cecile Cclani Lester, Canadians. Her father was killed in the battle of Vimy Ridge and her mother died in Los Angeles, leaving Katherine to enter a local

orphanage. When she was 9 years old, Cecil B. •De Mille adopted Katherine and she has always thought this made her an American citizen. After passport officials ruled otherwise, the Paramount starlet went right from one office to another and took out her first papers. — One of the few actors to attend the funeral services of Karl Dane was To.n O’Brien, who also won fame in “The Big Parade.” Later on, he, too. disappeared I from the screen. Hollywood friends i asked him about it yesterday. “Sure,” he replied. “I was smart. > I got out of pictures long ago. I’m I working for the state.” But Dane, who knew the trade of carpentering, could never forget hi* brief taste of the spotlight. Since those stories broke prematurely about Mae West looking for an armored ear, the actress has ■ been swamped by people wanting to supply one. The other day the coast representative of one of the most expensive American motors called to take her riding and to offer specifications of a bullet-proof limousine that will go 110 miles per hour. More amusing is the wire she received from a carnival owner in Fort Worth, Texas. He is displaying the $14,000 armored car that once sheltered Al Capone. He’ll sell it to Mae for $2,000.
