Labor Day skips the first week in September this year, extending I the vacation period over to the eighth of the month, a fact no doubt appreciated by the children and those who haven't had their i holiday. A race driver was brought be-; fore an Indianapolis judge, charg-' ed with speeding. The defendant said he was just “loafing around.'' although the traffic officers timed him at 54 miles an hour. The! judge didn't accept the driver's idea of loafing and fined him two' dollars and costs. Both Senators Borah and Robin * son were renominated in their respective state primaries. Although they had opposition, both ran way I ahead of their opponents. The public iiasn't changed much. The I people seem satisfied with those, in power and the party nominations won by the two prominent and able senators is proof that, there will not be much of a switch ’ in November. Several people have written letters to Resettlement Administration officials favorable to the building of additional bouses at the Decatur Homesteads. The suggestion ' has also been made that if more 1 houses arc not built on the pres ent site, that a new development be established. The matter is being given careful consideration by the Resettlement division and the cooperative attitude shown by Decatur has been called to the atten-, tiou of officials in Washington. — The cornerstone for the new Howard county courthouse was laid yesterday with appropriate ceremonies and a civic celebration | put on in the city of Kokomo. The | county has been without a court house for nearly ten years and the proposed new building will be completed next year. Like events of that nature, the cornerstone laying is an important step in community progress. Howard county, is one of the few in the state to get a new public building, largely paid for through taxation. .. The tragic dea-th of a nine-year-old boy in Indianapolis who rode his bicycle into a big truck is a reminder of the danger which boys and girls encounter in riding on busy streets with their bikes. Many near accidents have been averted right in our own city, because the child unmindful of danger, turns the corners or rides at night without a flasher or light. Bicycling is good exercise and sport for the youngsters, but it isn't worth the chance of being run down by an auto. Children, please be careful. igr ' , m N. W. Ayer and Son, oue of the world's leading advertising agencies, in summing reasons for business success, lists the following. "In the past 67 years, we have studied and analyzed hundreds of great businesses, and in every case the reason for their success has been found to lie in: (1) a

His name is M. Clif-| lord Townsend. Indiana's lieutenant governor and commissioner ofj agriculture. No day passes that | he is not attending a meeting of some kind, either boosting the 1936 State fair to make it bigger and better than ever or speaking bei fore some political gathering. Cliff is the owner of a 120-acre ' farm in Grant County which has I all the seasonal problems of drought, harvesting and marketing that are common to farmers. His crops include 26 acres of oats, 36 acres of soy beans, 58 acres of corn, 6 1 /- acres of sweet clover. 19 acres of alfalfa, and 19 acres of sweet clover pasture. His stock includes 117 head of hogs, 65 spring lambs, 18 head of Herford feeding cattle, 12 Guernsey milk ; rows, 350 White Leghorn spring i chicks and 200 laying hens. Mi'. Townsend was born and reared a farmer and has spent more than 30 years on the farm and in farm management. Although school teaching and supervision was his career for many years, he returned to the farm 3% months after the Arniistlce was signed and took up scientific farming in away that won notice. His I specialty was swine and stock raising. Later he became director of organization for the Indiana Farm Bureau and the lieutenant governor with the title of Indiana Commissioner of Agriculture. In this state office, Mr. Townsend and members of the State Board of Agriculture gave assistance to the Federal program for the easing of farm debt burdens. Working in harmony with the farm debt conciliation program, they saved 2,000 farm foreclosures ano obtained cancellation of some $1,500,000 of Hoosier farm debts. New low rates of interest supplied by the national farm agencies will have I
