The corn.hog checks will scatter sunshine here and there and will no doubt start a buying spurt. Prince George didn't do anything unnatural when he kissed his princess bride-to.be at the railroad station. Supporting the President is also a degree of good Americanism, just as well as sticking with the Constitution. The country isn't in such bad shape when you stop to consider how many young men and young woni e n are beginning college careers this month. You missed a chance to lie glad if you failed to hear Will Rogers the other evening. He broadcasted from England. Call it cowboy philosophy or comedian humor. Rogers has away of telling it and back of it is his love for America. It's been sometime since there was a postal robbery, Rochester being the scene of the latest raid. Thieves stole the mail sacks containing more than *33,000 in bonds. The federal officials will run them down and chances are the yeggs will not even have the opportunity to cash the negotiables. You think of Hollywood as a place rolling in wealth and where the actors throw one dollar bills in the gutter. But it may not be so. In North Hollywood the business men of the city are sweeping and cleaning the streets because the town and county governments are broke. They might make an uncensored movie of that. Campaigns are getting underway, both parties planning an intensive drive the last month of the campaign. With every facility for quick contact with the voter offered these days, the long drawn-out campaign is a thing of the past and it's just as well that a discussion of the issues be held at a time when the people begin to look for election day. All doubt as to the approval of the Decatur homestead project was eliminated with the announcement that contracts for the 48 houses will be let to a New York firm and

that construction work will begin in a few weeks. The government has announced that 48 houses will be built. At least by spring Dej, catur's little village will be a visible thing and in the meantime much employment should be g-ven ' through the construction of the houses. t ROAD DEDICATION: Greenfield, seat of justice in our neighboring county, is preparing a " celebration over its better highway j program. The widening of the 5 National road (No. 40) west to Cumberland and the opening of the j newly-paved state road, No. 9. ) south to Shelbyville are deemed worthy of public felicitations. It is fitting, of course, that the former home of James Whitcomb Riley should formally acknowledge the completion oP this paved link in what is known as the Riley highway and that the celebration should C take place in Riley Memorial park. The program will be given on Wednesday afternoon. October 3. Civic committees have extended j invitations to other communities on the two roads involved. Shelbyville and Shelby county will be ’ well represented, along with An--1 derson. Pendleton, Cumberland and way points. Greenfield is the ‘ hub" at the intersection of the two highways. One mile of new I pavement remains to be laid be. tween that city and Shelbyville and it is scheduled for completion late this month. Motorists in central Indiana should "explore" the new highway. Even those formerly familiar with it will note a number of changes. It has been a picturesque road, especially to the south of Fountaintown. The twists and turns of Riley's horse-and-buggy days do not always appeal to the motorist, however, and this stretch abounded in turns. It meandered through the counties much as the streams which the Hoosier poeg described. Road-building efficiency has eliminated many of those right angles, II without spoiling the appeal of this 1 stretclr through the countryside. The Riley trail will merit a visit ■ some time during the month of ' gorgeous October. — Indianapolis .

LOUIS* MAN COMPLETES 50th YEAR AS BLACKSMITH ST. LOUIS (U.R) — John Knaupl celebrated his fiftieth anniversary f as a blacksmith in St. Louis the other day. His is one of the few shops remaining in the city and is the only one, he says, that does nothing but blacksmith work. But Knaup is not rushed with business. In fact, he says he gets about one horse a month to be shoed. However, the drought this summer was a boon to him as he sharpened many plowshares, dulled by the baked ground. Knaup’s shop is at the same location it was when he first went to work in St. Louis, 50 years ago. His shop is across the street from a grade school and often, especially when he is shoeing a horse, the teachers hold classes at his place of business.
