What’s this? The Dionnes don't want Doctor Dafoe to officiate at , the next blessed event scheduled in the family. Surely they are not superstitious. I Ground will be broken this week for the remodeling and enlarging of the Zion Lutheran church ou West Monroe street. Contracts so far awarded total more than $lO,1 000 and the improvements planned will give the congregation a commodious building and the city a beautiful edilice. The new federal tax bill seems to be a break for the small corporation. Instead of paying 13% per cent on profits, the new schedule starts at 10 per cent on the first ' 32,000, 11 on the next $13,000 and on up to 15 per cent on all profits over $40,000. Most of us won't ! need to worry about the latter 1 levy. 1 - i This country isn't going to stand 1 still aiid that's the position President Roosevelt and the Democratic i national convention will take No 1 doubt changes are coming in government. Business has revamped , its style and so has every individual. Government cannot lag behind and at the same time serve the people and build for the future. The historical pageant will be staged on the Niblick lot. east of the Monroe street river bridge. The location is easily accessible and within walking distant- of all ; utose residing within the city 1 limits. The stage settings will have a background of beautiful trees and the location is ideal for the production of the great show.

uial Queen ballots the past three weeks, breath a sigh of relief with the thought that the big contest i ends Saturday. The voting will ' continue up to Saturday night and the contest has been one of the most interesting ever staged here. The committee deserves credit for I its work and systematic handling ' of the job. The Chicago Tribune, self styled “world's greatest newspaper." I is stooping to petty journalism and picayune practices by injecting nasty personal attacks on Democratic candidates and those in charge of the convention. Their | editorial flaying fat men and abus I lug them for being that way sounds I babish and catty. They seem to ' object that men of big stature hold office and insult the President be-1 cause he is a man measuring more than six feet tall and weighs more , than the little shrimp at the edi-• torial desk of Colonel McCormick's arrogant newspaper. Senator Barkley, famed orator i from Dixie, didn't give an inch to the Landon-Knox boys in his keynote speech at the Democratic convention in Philadelphia. His wonderful address aroused the enthusiasm of the thousands assembled I in convention and thrilled the mil- j lions at the radio. Barkley launch- • ed into a dramatic presentation of the good of the New Deal and| pointed to the future in government. He pointed to the rapid recovery of the country under Roosevelt policies. He drew laughter with the quip, that some of those who have been saved from j drowning are complaining because | Roosevelt pulled their hair while he took them from the water. The city of Van Wert is encountering financial difficulties. The city treasury is broke and the municipality faces a SIO,OOO deficit by the end of the year. Such conditions are not the easiest to meet, j The public demands a lot and at the same time wants its officials I to keep taxes down and it’s like the old saying, you can't have your cake and eat it. Sufficient money, wasn't raised in the first place and now the administraTion must scurry around to get money to pay bills and salaries of firemen, policemen and other employes. One, thing noticed in the Van Wert | budget is that the city levies about' $15,000 a year for ornamental street lighting. The town does not have a light or- power plant. o ♦ I STAR SIGNALS —BY— OCTAVI NE For persons who believe that human destroy is guided by the planet, the daily b'-roseope is outlined by a noted astrologer.

F.D.R. SIGNS MANY MEASURE? Number Os Bills Are Signed By President Roosevelt Washington. June 25 (U.R) President Roosevelt today signed | j u bill to prevent the importation | of strike breakers across state; lines. The measure wtas one of a 1 number signed by the president from the accumulation of bills dumped on his desk during the : closing days of congress. Liberals hailed the anti-strike-breaker measure when it was before congress as oue. of much initoortance in the labor movement. I ‘They attacked the bringing in of “thugs and criminals" during strikes as being an assault, on the efforts of honest laborers to obtain better working conditions. The measure prohibits the im-1 portation of strike breakers from other states, under penalty of I fines for those doing the trans-1 porting across state lines. Only interstate movements are involved I under the act. The president also signed a; measure providing for increase in ’ the effectiveness and efficiency ot; the air corps. In the list of bills signed were more than a dozen belief acts as well as routine measures affecting various localities, including a measure to enable the secretary: of agriculture to apply such meth- j ods of control of grasshoppers as in his judgment may be necessary and a joint resolution to invest!- 1 gate corporations engaged in the manufacture, sale, or distribution ot agricultural implements machinery. o Modern Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE Q.

The wedding -invitation re-; quires two envelopes; the first, or inner envelope, is used as a protec- i tion for the invitation and is unsealed; the second envelope is heavier, and large enough to contain the inner envelope? Q. How should one eat cake at the table? A. Cake can -be held with the fingers when possible; otherwise, use the fork. Q. When a woman is staying at a
