The Indiana Fann Bureau isn't ’ going to seem like the old organ- j ization with any one hut Bill Settle | at its head.

"Well, they were shooting big any way and of course without much chijnce of ultimate success. The gang will be duly cleaned up and at least its members have lost their influence. The Iqcal post of the American Legion is interested in the work of beautifying the highways and will give particular attention to the new 527, in cooperation with the suggestions made by Janies D. Adams, Ulate highway comiuissioiiS&; er, in his address at the dedication. Dent Baltzell, in charge of the con nervation committee of Adams Post is working on the job and with his ■ experience at this work, will prove a,i excellent nid. Eighty thousand people watched and cheered and thrilled at the Ariny-Notre Dame football game at the Yankee stadium iu New York Saturday. ' This is always one of

the big sports events and this year was no exception. Society ■ was there and so were the big business men, the politicians, the high of- . flcials and the way they screamed and yelled, must have enjoyed it. It was a great tight and an outstanding game of the season. Those who are urging the Nebraska style of legislature might do well to wait a couple of years and see how they pan out. The senate has always been a balance wheel for the house and vice versa and we are too old fashioned to take snap judgment on so importI ant a matter as law- making Each two years as it is we get a bundle of statutes that cause everybody to j wiggle and if one house decided it, we would no doubt get more and perhaps not of as good quality as now. A writer in the New York Her-ald-Tribune makes the novel suggestion that the stock exchanges should be abolished and stock and bond stores should be substituted. He would have stocks and bonds carried like groceries or dry goods.

Different merchants could special, ize in various kinds of securities. The would-be purchaser would walk in and get his shares or bonds, pay | his money and the transaction I would be closed.

By HARRISON CARROLL Coggrijit, 19-'i. King Features Syndicate, Inc. HOLLYWOOD, ... — Dog steal- : ing in the film colony has become such a racket that Kay Francis, buy- ’ ing a pedigreed wire-haired for her mother, refused mj. ——| to allow the terrier to be photographed for fear • • of identifying it W to pct Wklnapers. Fred Keating entertains strong suspicions that Ifc c 8 .« <w] he has just been made the victim k of the racket. ■ Tt, e Columbia 1 ac,or a Boston L , bull terrier, Kay Francis Snoopy, recently disappeared from home under mysterious circumstances. Keating inserted ads in the newspapers and offered rewards. According to the actor, the first genuine tin on the dog’s whereabouts came about a week later, when a young man called him on the phone and made cryptic suggestions that he knew where Snoopy could be found. When Keating tried to question him, he hung up. A few days later, the same young man made a second contact and add- * ed more details. The dog was in the hands of a woman neighbor, he said. Would Keating pay him the reward if he furnished the address? Before Snoopy was returned, the actor had to pay two rewards. He J hasn't any proof, but believes the a whole deal was a frame-up. i,i On Frank Fay’s birthday, Barbara Stanwyck planned a surprise for him, but a servant tipped it off. One of Frank’s main hobbies is s collecting first editions of John Galsworthy's books. Weeks ago, Barbara , commissioned a New York book store i_ to buy a first edition—the limited auj tographed one—of the English author's novel, "The White Monkey". ■ Unfortunately, the book arrived a week too soon. A servant opened it and when Barbara came home, she found Frank reading his intended r birthday surprise. h Byway of consolation, however, she got hifn a dictaphone and a crystal paper weight for his desk. ft I.

The K tough part is <. ,• I that the U. S. department of Mt -ivulture conriders fighting bulls as undesirable aliens.
