All right, all right, that's the 'n-I fant 1936 you hear crying to get in. He is a lusty and capable young-i ster who should really do things in the coming year. A lot of folks will have to trade I their green and black automobile 1 tags for the 1936 white and crim-: son by Tuesday evening or take a 1 hig chance on paying extra. Word has been received that Santa Claus weathered the Christmas blizzard and arrived home safe : and sound, being forced however to go back to his reindeers and sleigh. —~ Hurry down to the bank and start that savings account. You, can still get in on the Christinas club and solve a lot of problems that are sure to arise next holidays unless you prepare for them. The next big sports event will I be the Rose Bowl football game at i Pasadena, California, on New i Years day. The contestants will be Stanford of California and Southern Methodist of Texas. A million fans will listen in on the radio as the great game is played and broadcast. National advertisers plan to increase their space from five to i twenty-five per cent next year. They know it pays and they know there is going to be a lot of business to go after. The sa~m rule should work with the local merchant and the wise hustler will give this serious consideration. Pay your subscription to the Daily Democrat. We need you and we hope you feel you need the paper. The coming year will be the most important in a decade, with business booming, elections pending, big events happening every where. It will pay you to keep posted. Renew now. If every one who receives a threatening letter, follows Lindy's action and goes to some foreign country, our population will be seriously affected. Os course the Lindberghs have the privilege of living w> ere they want to, but its our guess they will very soon decide that the old U. S. A. is a pretty safe place to be after all. Jeff Liechty will become county treasurer next Wednesday and G Remy Bierly will become county clerk. Both men are splendidly qualified and will continue the excellent service now being rendered in tttese two offices. John Wechte, will retire as treasurer and David Depp as clerk. Each has rendered excellent service and each lias added to their long list of friends and admirers. The Good Fellows club did a good job mid as always nave promptly reported as to the use of same.

Besides the $317 in cash they received many donations of toys, food, clothing, etc., and all was dis- ‘ tributed with tbe greatest care. Il 1 is a wonderful work, done so well ', each year by the Delta Theta Taus and the B. P. O. E. and we are sure . it is appreciated by the public in I general. Banks will be permitted to pay not in excess of two and one half ■ per cent on deposits under a ruling of the state banking commission, effective January Ist and to get that rate it will be necessary to let your money ride a full year. For six months you can get only two per cent and one per cent for ninety days. The order is mandatory and must be observed to the letter by the banks. The streets were quickly cleaned following the big Christmas storm, so were the county and state roads. How different it is' from a few years ago when a big, snow remained until it decided to j leave and every one got along the best they could. Now almost before we are ready to move out. either on foot or by car, the walks and highways are clear and safe. i And that's something in the way ■ of progress. No group of official*js more interested in highway safety than , 1 state highway officials. A constructive suggestion was made to the American Association of State Highway Officials, meeting in Miami, Fla., by James D. Adams, i chairman of the Indiana commis--1 sion. He recommends the immediate widespread adoption of divid ed lane highways. "We in the highi way industry should present to this country a gigantic program I for making our main arteries of travel more safe." said Mr. Adams. "The time is ripe to plan construction and development of divide,. ine highways. Putting the maximum of safety into our highways will increase their cost, but we cannot disregard the toll of 36.000 dead and a million injured annually.” It is not his idea that a sys- ■ tern of divided lane highways be j I completed in one season or in several, but over a period of years. After a start has been made there is likely to be a demand for such . roads that will hasten their construction. — Newcastle Courierrimes. o * • « Answers To Test Questions Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed on Page Two ♦ ♦ 1.
