That almighty dollar will do mighty work if you let it loose Thursday. Xocal stores have gone out of tluiii road to provide many attractive dollar day bargains for yon. Snap them up. You'll never know what dividends a dollar will yield until you start it to work in the city wide Dollar Day derby Thursday. In one breath they say “rugged individualism" has been destroyed; aiTti in the next, they point to Roosevelt's hold on the people. It seems that Republican chairman Fletcher's secret to restore the party to power is a policy of damn this and damn that and about everything that has been done or will be done by the administration. If you don’t think that the old year is rolling around, let us remind you that the 1935 auto license plates are now being manufactured. The colors will be a robin-egg blue background and black numerals. Get a set for Christmas. It's noticeable throughout the city that home owners are painting up, repairing the buildings and otherwise making things look comfy and homelike. Home is where you receive the greatest afnount of pleasure and money and effort spent there bring the biggest dividends in happiness. Anyway the country admires the attitude taken by Banker Harriman, who yesterday started serving a four-and-a-half-year prison tdrm. The aged banker, convicted of fraud in connection with one of the largest banks in the country and bearing his family name, says he is not down and out and will come back. A few years ago he could have saved himself all the trouble. .The movie producers announce they'll open their laundry July 15 and give the pictures a good cleaning. For years these Hollywood fellows, apparently, took the attitude that they were living in old Babylon and that they could picture all tne smut they pleased. Local theater proprietors, victims of the “block-booking” system had to taka the pictures offered and the campaign being waged in the nation today is not against theater owners and exhibitors, but an effort to purge the films at their source.

The government’s public works program stimulated business as early as 1933, the annual report of the iron and steel institute shows. Last year production reached 1,191,119 tons, an increase over all years since 1921. With a still , larger program of public improvements being carried on now and with the auto industry running near capacity, steel cities are likely to be busy places during the next year. This buy a drink hullabaloo seems foolish and out of order. The law forbids the sale of hard liquor, commonly classed as whisky, by the drink in Indiana and a diverse opinion still would not have repealed the law. It seems American people spend more time trying to figure out some way how to get around a law and after accomplishing that are not satisfied unless they stir up something else. A little common sense in the matter would probably be the best thing to use. Mankind has a warm spot in its heart for mothers and grandmothers. They are the finest creatures on earth and without them the world might be the great sham that it appears to be —a bit of tinsel, cold, deceitful, insincere, void of the finer sentiments which we like to associate in ife. Tributes have been paid them, but still no one seems able to express one's inner feelings of reverence for the loving touch, kind and wholesome countenance and spirit of sacrifice which they continually pour forth. Those privileged to enjoy long years with mother and grandmother are fortunate indeed, because to us, one who has not spent a day at | grandma's or in childhood days gone to her at Christmas time, has miss id part of the joy of living and associations which will forever be cherished. o * < Answers To Test Questions Below are the Answers to the Test Questions Printed on °age Two. ♦ • 1.

FALSE REPORTS ARE DENOUNCED (CONTINUED FROM rAoE . ?PP ) . tests and track meets. “The working men should see in the army not only a fundamental safeguard of his economic existence but his own spiritual home." The Reichswehr was discussed during the recent crisis as the ultimate power in the country, capable of maintaining or overthrowing any government. But perhaps the order should not be regarded as of over-much significance. It could be interpreted as a sign of Nazi confidence in the Reichswehr and as expressive of a desire to instill the Reichswehr with a closer knowledge of and friendship for the ordinary man. The order came just after the cancellation by Blomberg of the army's full maneuvres, partly on the ground that the danger of forest fires would impede the army’s freedom of movement. The executive committee of the foreign press association planned to discuss today the speech made by minister of propaganda Paul Joseph Goebbels, denouncing some foreign newspapers for publishing false reports about the crisis and warning that the government would not tolerate continuance of such methods. Goebbels compared the dissemination of these reports as "in
