Send the Daily Democrat to some friend for a Christmas gift. It will be appreciated every week day of the year. Help push the Goodfellows fund up a hundred or two so that every boy and girl may continue to believe in Santa Claus.

If they really get ten billion dot- j lais together, it ought to go a lone I ways towards heading off any, future depression due to unemploy-: 1 nieut. It’s too late to shop early but plenty early to shop late. The local stores are filled with the finest gifts at the lowest' prices. No need to look elsewhere. Huey Long is taking over the school teachers of Louisiana and will make them a part of his political machine. Next will probably come the Sunday School workers. The eighteenth amendment was a failure and now they claim its repeal was likewise a mistake. So now what? It appears to be a problem that will never be solved, at least to the satisfaction of many. The Good Fellows club needs a I quick and spontaneous aid if all! the poor boys and girls are to be taken care of. And the time is short. Don't wait any longer with your contribution. Job insurancec is not a political scheme, but a very Christian like business proposition that permits those who labor to feel some protection against the dark days which seem to come each decade or two. Congratulations to Lloyd Conrad who was named as guard on Dick Miller's all-state high school football team and to the others who received honorable mention. The boys worked l ard, made a fine record aud deserve this recognition.

mils to have lived the past year or two. Such people are dangerous to society. There now appears to be considr erable objections to doing away with the primaries, although both 1 parties promised the people of Indiana to do that. Many who fail : to vote on election day seem to • want the right so they enn use it I if they ever care to. ; When business men and the gov-1 1 ernment get together, the result is sure to be of benefit to every one. And indications are that is happenI ing in this nation right now. Bet your last penny we use over the depression and don't forget that a lot of appreciation is due our great leader, President Roosevelt. Five hundred children will be entertained at the Moose party at the Catholic high school building tonight. The program includes a delightful entertainment, candy of course and a general good holiday time. Those Moosers are always doing something nice for people and at the Christmas season, always do their full part. If John Burns continues his refusal to talk, he might be put in a room and a call arranged by the federal men. When they took him, he. squealed like the yellow cur of proveAial history and was willing to tell every thing he knew. Nowsafe behind the bars, he gets chesty again. His stripe deserves nothing but rough treatment.

An interesting program has been arranged for the regular monthly meeting of the Democratic Woman s Club to be held at Berne. A banquet will be served at 6:30 and the principal address will be made by Rev. G. O. Walton, pastor of the Presbyterian church of this city. There will be singing and readings and a splendid entertainment. The Daily Democrat’s Christmas club will close Saturday night and th® winner will receive a check for SSOO. Other prizes of from $25 to S2OO will also be given to those who have taken part in the interesting contest. The event will be of interest to every one and especially to those who have taken part and their friends. We appreciate the splendid cooperation extended and we will do our very best to give to our readers the best newsI paper it is possible to publish. • t „ , Answers To Test Questions Selow are the answer* to tho Teet Questions printed on Pape Two. 1.
