If you don’t invite folks to trade with you they naturally go to those who do. Try It this week and see if you don’t find the few dollars thus invested a paying proposition. A riot of colors now brings the beauty of farm woodlands and city parks and yards to the very peak of the autumn season. There is no more beautiful section of the United States than Indiana at this time of the year. Take a look at it tomorrow morning as the sun is illuminating the trees. The small boy who saw Toni Mix on the screen struggle with six bad men. lay them out, grab the beautiful girl, leap over a 100foot cliff and swim a rapid mountain stream to safety without a scratch can't understand how the film hero fell from a horse at a circus performance and broke his leg.—Princeton Clarion-News. Politics will start soon and while there is promise of a rather heated campaign the indications are that the primaries in this county will not be as strenuous as usual because we will not elect many major officials. The judge, auditor, clerk aud state senator hold over and the sheriff and treasurer will be candidates to succeed themselves for their second two-year terms. It has been suggested that if the folks in town can use federal-funds to pay for the labor of layiug cement sidewalks, it might be advisable to arrange for farmers to rebuild their fences by furnishing the material, the labor being provided under a new federal division arranged for that purpose. Miles and miles of fences could thus be replaced, helping the community as well as the owner of the farm. — The McMillen bunch is a live outfit, as any one who had the opportunity to attend the banquet last Saturday could see and the livest one of all is the leader. President bale W. McMillen. He admits he loves to live and that work is his tonic. Hr does things and this community is fortunate, as we have frequently said, to have him and his sons aud his assistants interested so sincerely in this community. A year ago the city of Muncie was one of the worst hit in the country and the future looked bleak, but today it is leading the entire nation in collections and credit sales. The National Retail Credit Association has just reported a survey of 15,160 retail stores, reported from 47 cities aud among these the Hoosier city stands out with a gain of 19% on sales and 30% on collections. Indiana is leading the entire country now in stepping out of the depression. Os course Indiana wishes to cooperate with the federal government in its efforts to provide

future security for the working man and if a special session is absolutely necessary, Governor McNutt will call it. The law makers should be loyal enough if this is necessary to forget their pet measures and attend to this business only. Since it will require some six or eight months to get ready and since the regular session of the General Assembly will convene a year from January, it would seem that if worst comes to worst, the special session can be avoided without interfering greatly with the plans of the uutional administration. When the old age pension law was passed in Indiana it was supposed that the cities would furnish the larger proportion of the pensioners. The reverse has turned out to be true. Marion county, containing Indianapolis, has only a third as many pensioners for each 1,000 population as Henry county. In Henry county, Newcastle has fewer pensioners the 1,000 population than the rural townships. Under the Federal old age pension law the state will administer it instead of the county commissioners. The latter body may recommend. but the state must have the final say and will investigate every applicant so that conditions will be uniform over the state. Indi-1 ana already has the funds provid- 1 ed with whlcß to pay her share of the pensions next year so that no new or additional taxes of any I kind will be necessary. It is likely a special session will have to lie held to authorize the state to use the funds for that purpose and set up the administrative machinery. —Newcastle Courier-Times. o— ■ • 0 Answers To Test Questions Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed on Page Two. • _ 4 1.
