If you know of some way in which the amount so badly needed can be raised, communicate with Mr. Sellemeyer and we are sure you will have the sincere appreciation of him and the band members. A number of people do not stop at those intersections at which stop signs are located, taking serious chances for themselves as well as those who are on the through streets and the right to think that those coming upon side streets will obey the law and stop. This is the cause of numerous accidents in the towns and cities and I>olice are making a special effort to see that cars do stop for these signs. If people were dying in every state in the Union at the same rate they are from automobile accidents, we would be excitedly using every means possible to stop it, but we seem to just take it for granted that nothing can be done about the traffic problem and go on to higher death records each year. Surely there is some way to regulate drivers and driving that will lessen the death rate from automobile accidents. The G. O.

Lawrence Pitzer of Fountain county, Indiana, the Hoosier contestant shucked 38.34 bushels to take third place. Henry A. Wallace, secretary of agriculture, attended the bee. This is Armistice Day, an occasion set aside to remind us of the happy hour seventeen years ago when the World War ceased and the boys were through with the I bloodiest and worst conflict in all | history. It is important that the event be observed because we should teach the young and some of the old that war does not pay i and that peace is to be desired. ! Just now, when foreign nations are again at each other's throats, let us all hope and pray and work that America can stay free from any alliances that might draw us into war.
