The sand storms slowed up the motorists on the state roads and I that's something to be thankful for, we prcs'ttne. The new telegraph code bars the I boys from using biclcles to deliver | their messages on. What do they expect? Twelve cylinder cars? Congress will have to make good | the losses of those who got caught j in the smash of -9 or several mil- j lion people are going to be "sore." I Prosecutor Kstil of Lake county.! who had his picture taken with his i arm around Dillinger, will probably be caniert shy from now- ou. That act cost him the nomination for his j office in the recent primary. Dated coffee has been on the market some time and now we have dated whiskey. The difference j however we are told is that coffee to he good must be fresh while hard j liquor to have tbe real "kick" must j have age. Let's forget politics a while and ! see what we can do to help thei community and each other. We j have gone a long ways the past year ana ts we keep up the effort, I will get somewhere one of these tine days. Many in this county will be I happy over the nomination of j James Moran of Portland for the f Democratic nomination for judge.} He held that position with honor [ some years ago, has filled a term as appellate judge and is rated as one of the best lawyers of eastern Indiana. . Ralph Yager, who has had byld ! of the steering wheel for the G. 0.l o“ . 1 r. car in this county the pa.,l two l years, will continue his job. He was re-elected chairman at the Saturday meeting of the committee. His assistants will be Mrs. -Vlenno Burkhaker of Berne as vice chairman; Cal E. Peterson, treasurer and Francis Howard, secretary.

-1 Franc* Conter, former IVcatur business man. received the nomination for treasurer of Lake county, 1 defeating hi* nearest opponent by | 1.000. If elected be will succeed his ! father, H. L. Center who is on his j second term in that office. France | lias made good as deputy and will j have many supporters in the November election. The museum to be installed In (the court house lobby will prove of much interest to thousands of people during the coming years. There is nothing that attracts more [attention than relics and the display will grow from mouth to month as the people realize what I the proposed plan is. Nathan t\ Nelson, well known j Decatur attorney, was elected j chairman of the Adams county Democratic committee at the meeting held in headquarters here Sat- | urday. Mrs. James Briggs of I Geneva was chosen as vice-conimit- ! teeman, "Winnie" Gerke as secrei ;ary and August Heiman, treasurer. ‘ The meeting was orderly and while [the contest between Mr. Nelson and j C. H. Musselman of Berne had been strenuous for a day or two, it was j a friendly political battle and every lone seemed happy after it was over. Mr. Nelson, former prosecuting attorney, is an experienced leader in j j tolitics and assisted by capable ofi beers and committees to he named i later, will lead the Democrats of i - his county to another splendid ; victory. The county chairman and j vice-chairman will go to Angola j next Saturday where the organiza ; tion will be made for the district | and the following week the district representatives will meet in Indian I a polls to elect a state chairman, j The campaign moves along. It is about lime for the American | public to get fighting mad about i this machine gua business. Who j uses machine guns? Who makes them? And who sell them? You | read that a "dealer" down in Texas ! sold ap outfit of machine guns to [the agents of our fellow Hoosiers I as if it were so many sacks of potatoes. It is time for a very definite I crimp to be put into that kind of I trade. Machine guns are used bv i soldiers—but uot tbe lied of guus this man sells. They are used by officers of the law. And they are used by bandits and racketeers. I Those are the only markets. They j are made apparently by any gun i j manufacturer who can get orders | for them, and are sold by any deal|er who cares to sell them. And all this without the slightest regard for the hands they get into. We j Americans have been too prone to j let the profit from sales justify the 1 manufacture of. and traffic in. about anything. When machine J , !:uns become a staple article in our j .tores, that is carrying it a little! bit too far. —Columbus Republican. • ♦ Answers To Test Questions j Below are tbe Answers to the Test Questions Printed on Page Two. ♦ -♦ | 1.
