The only objection to this glorious weather is that it makes you tired and drowsy and makes the ’ office less attractive. — Texans will probably not clamor to have the legislature reconsider the bill providing for a radio on every solon's desk and the broadcast of every speech. Difference of opinion is the spice of life. It need not divide friendships, groups or communities. What seems all important today blow's over and is soon forgot. Under the leadership of Mackenzie King, the Liberals were restored to power in Canada in Mon day's election. The leader of the party will become the premier, which high office he held back in 1930. It’s a mistaken thought that people in this country hold that all of Canada is conservative. The election of Philip Zoert her, chairman of the state board of tax commissioners to the presidency of the National Tax Association would please his many friends in Indiana. Mr. Zoercher is a sincere- public servant and an authority -on “tax matters. He would make a capable leader for the national group. Andrew Mellon, one of the country's richest men and former secretary, of the treasury is giving away part, o* his wealth. He has donated jt) million dollars for the constriction of an art gallery in Washington and with it will give his valuable paintings and pieces of art The world will enjoy seeing the display and appreciates Mr. Mellon's generous gift to mankind. We are -eminded that boys are throwing bricks and stones on porches, doing damage and at the same time molesting the householder. Destruction of the other person's property cannot be countenanced. No parent, with a bit of pride in his heart or respect for the other person's rights want his children to destroy property and the toys will grow up to be bet.er meit. if they follow the rules expected of upright gentlemen. The foremost Republican papers are -advising the party leaders that those interested in success in 1936 should concentrate their th r .tght

on constructive Issues and not on i candidates. That's the stumbling block and one of the reasons you have been reading a lot of puffery about this and that candidate Hoover seems to be the leading t Republican candidate and his position does not appeal to popular , I fancy, or his policies in keeping with present day needs and : thought. , Everybody knows that this has i been a great year for the auto--1 mobile manufactures and that factories in Detroit and other Michigan towns have broken all former production schedules. But it is just as interesting to know that Indiana farmers and working families have had enough money this year to buy new passenger cars and trucks. In the first eight months of 1935. licenses have been issued to nearly. 35.000 more auto owners than there were in the state last year. Altogether 854,374 auto licenses have been issued and drivers licenses have been taken out by 94.118 persons. It is altogether timely that the state division of public safety, cooperat- | ing with schools police, highway I commissioners and newspapers ' over the state has undertaken a great state-wide "safe driving" campaign. BROWN COUNTYS AUTUMN LURE: Brown county's annual feast of color has been spread for the delection of nature lovers. Earlier than the seasonal change around Indianapolis would indicate, trees, bushes and shrubs of that scenic area have donned their bright tints. Enough green remains to provide just the right contrast for scarlets, bronzes and yellows in all conceivable shades. Vantage points on the uplands provide sweeping vistas of autumnal hues. The spectacle is gorgeous enough from almost any spot, but the richest return is yielded to more venturesome souls who depart from TKe* main highways and explore the devious roads apparently leading notFliere into the heart of the hill country. There the panora'ma unfolds in all its beauty, with the brilliant color cf the hillsides forming the background for a few rows of golden-brown cornshocks. an ancient cabin and a meandering brook. The call of the birds is unmarred by the noise of motor traffic and the pungent earth smells are unmixed with noxious gasoline fumes. The opportunities for viewing the scenic beauties of the region should be enhanced by plans to create a larger park tract out of unproductive land. Facilities for handling the crowds have been greatly improved by the new road leading south from Indianapolis to Nashville, and by the state park which diverts thousands that formerly jammed the streets of the county seat. Most fortunate of the visitors, of course, are those invited to enjoy the hospitality of attractive log cabins, which occupy strategic sites atop the hills or nestle in the seclusion of isolated valleys. It is an ever-alluring spectacle that nature spreads for appreciative Hoosiers. These Brown county treats are much too brief, as biting winds and driving rains all too soon will strip the trees of their brilliant trappings and the more somber stretches will be left to the tramp of the hunter. —lndianapolis Star. —— o *~TWENTY YEARS * AGO TODAY | From the Daily Democrat File ♦ ♦ Oct. 17, 1915, was Sunday.
