National Adver Representative BCHEERER, Inc. |ls Lexington Avenue, New York. 35 East Wacker Drive, Chicago. Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dallies Indiana summer and its wonder-1 ful. Join the Red Cross and get a sign in your window. The annual roil call o£ the Red Cross is on. You should want your name written there. Tile Red Cross should have a membership of 1.200 or 1.50<» in Adams county although the quota assigned is only 1.000. We can go over the top with flying colors if every one will assist a little. It should bi something for the average citizen that, there will be no politics in Indiana worth mentioning for two years. We all like it btii someth; s it seems to ba little too much of a good thing. It- these who backed Governor t andon with heir money hy placing bets on him because of the Literary Digest straw vote should sue that company for their losses, the investigation suggested by Senator McKellar would be unnecessary. That ought to bring out all the dirt. Crop control is out and insurance of crops is in. under Secretary Wallace s new plan, showing again that when the Roosevelt administration discovers something better, they put it into effect, remembering all the while that the ! fanner must be protected as to prices for his crops. "All Americans arc think.Lg the same way, politics is behind us and prosperity is upon us,” said James A. Farley, as he sailed from New York on a short vacation in Ireland and if Jim is as correct in that as he was in his prediction of election Jesuits, w<;. can all get ready for some mighty good times Governor Alt M. Landon lost his own county in Kansas to President Roosevelt by eight votes, showing again that the home folks like to take a swipe at one of their own boys. President Roosevelt also lost his county. Just how much jealousy and envy enter into these 1 results is hard to say. but it usually occurs. Tljis is a great country as is demonstrated by the hue message which John D. Rockefeller, Jr., sent James A. Farley immediately! after r<;adittg the latter's radio! message to the nation the nightj of election. It showed genuine! bigness on tin part of each man' and that's why you need have no fear of the future of America—we. have too many tine men like these. The next improvement for highways will probably be electric lights along the routes. That will really !><• something. Indiana boasts as good a road system us there is in the United .States, nearly 10.000 miles of pavement and ttoi a dollar of bonded indebtedness. To have these highways lighted will help in many ways and it is predicted that the cou-|

Ing legislature will provide for the t tit st step in this direction, providing for 1.000 miles of lights. m—aw There is no longer any doubt that the Citizens Telephone Company will udd more thun a hundred phones by their offer of free Installation during the month of November. Since'the 2nd of .the month, eighty-five have been in-' stalled and this number is growing at the rate of a dozen or more a day. Those tyho contemplate adding this convenience will do well to order this month as that is th time limit permitted under the order from the state public service commission. "So what?" says the Literary Digest in their explanation story I of what went wrong with the polls. "So we were wrong, altho’ we did every thing we knew to assure ourselves of being right.” They 1 haven’t decided as to their future ’ straw votes saying they will cross that bridge when they get to it. If they do. of course they will never have the prestige they once held for they have lost the general reputation that the Literary Digest lis always right, which' we all heard so many times during the recent campaign, though every worker with an ear to the ground, knew they were wrong this year and couldn't understand why they blundered on. Some constable is chasing Dr. Dafoe, physician to the Dionne quintuplets, trying to serve papers ion him which will summon him! into a Chicago court where some nitwit has sued him and some othler folks for a million dollars bc- ■ cause he was prevented from showing the quints off at the worlds fair like a bunch of pigs. He bus nc more chance to collect a dime off Dr. Dafoe than he has to get t’; hildrct'. for his sideshow and :: io be prevented from .•ausinfe the doctor further annoyncv. The popular baby physician. is by the way. in New York City for a rest. Imagine going from the little quiet Canadian town to the bustling city for a rest. They probably won’t let him stop a moment. o . TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY From the Daily Democrat bile • « November 13, 1516. — Investigation of election frauds is begun in the Gay district by U. S.

Isn't it discourteous, at the theater, to begin putting on one’s wraps before the last curtain falls? A. Yes; it is very discourteous and ill-bred to do so.
