Gerald Thompson paid the price of murder and a wasted life when be marched to the chair. Haile Selassie will not get fur In making a holy war against the Italians. Machine guns and bombing planes will lick them quicker. We wish they would get rid of the title and the personage of Public Enemy No. 1. which in this case has been pinned on Kidnaper Karpis. Now let's get going on something else of a community nature and continue the jioiicy of building a better place in which to live. This town is progressive, its growth is steady and substantial and there are many things to do. Boys are warned not to soap Lie store windows. Why is it that during this season of the year, their thoughts turn to mating the windows with soap? It's a silly, old fashioned idea and should be stopped. Police officers will see that it does. The various lodges, clubs ami organizations are naming their Zorn mittee members of the Centennial organization and soon definite plans will take form towards the carrying out of a big celebration next year, it should be a great event and with the proper support can be made so. Let s work together on it. Young Teddy Roosevelt will not fall in line with Senator Borah in a “trust busting ' campaign. The Republicans can't get together on any issue and it s very doubtful if a knock Roosevelt assault will bring any fruit in 1336. The American iieople still believe in the President and are willing that he work out his program. Stopping further steps towards acquiring a sewage disposal plant means the turning down of a $52,727 gift, most of which would be spent for labor on the project. The engineers estimate showed that from 100 to 200 men would have been employed 30 hours a week for the next six months on the building of the interceptor and disposal works, a boom to employmeat following shut down of the sugar factory in December. It is well to view proposed public improvements in the light of cost to the taxpayer, but at the same time, the benefits of the improvement should also be weighed. Any ini provemeut, in house, store or com munity costs money and in the case of the sewage plant, a plan could have more than iikely been worked out that would not have meant excessive costs to anyone.

THE AUTUMN SCENERY: i Anyone who has traveled through the local countryside or around the city has experienced the same thrill and joy which Arthur Briz- ' bane tells in the following article in Ids “Today" column: “How many ever see the most beautiful sight in America —the changing colors of autumn foliage on the North Atlantic seaboard? This is written beside a high window overlooking thousands of acres of magnificently colored trees in Monmouth county. New Jersey, where the Georgia pine belt dies away among northern trees. “Innumerable brilliant colors fight for supremacy—every shade of dull gold, the scrub oak's deep red. scarlet maple trees like flaming torches, and dark pines supplying an unchanging background, emphasizing the beauty of color, “The earth, as far as the eye reaches, is carpeted with rich colors. Every autumn the beautiful colors are spread out, and every spring the innumerable shades of delicate green return.

One of the baudits stood i tiehind him and the other stood at I his side a tew feet from the safe. The bandit behind Strasburg crowded the proprietor so that lie could not see the cobination. When the bandit ordered him to hurry j and open the same Strasburg inI foi med him that if he would give him more light it might be easier i to work the combination. Finally the safe was opened and Strasburg was crowded to one side as the men started to ransack the vault. First the money was taken Tlie safe contained SBO in currency. Then three trays of diamond rings were pulled out. One of the bandits started to remove the rings, one by one, from the case. His companion ordered him to take the "trays and all" in order to save time. These were crammed

Children's Coats Instead of making buttonholes in the child's coat, why not substitute loops of silk rubber cord, which are much easier for the child to manage than buttonholes. The Kitchen As a woman spends so much of her time in the kitchen, why not scatter a few washable cotton rugs , on the floor, which will make it i attractive and homey?
