The leaves are turning rapidly to red and brown and in another week or two the famous Hoosier flash of color will be over. We ought to have Mr. Landon speak oftener. He spent a half hour trying to frighten the people and the next day stocks and markets shot up like a sky rocket. Mr. Merchant, sign up one of those contracts for ten to eighty inches of advertising and send it to this office. It will make us very happy and we feel sure it will help you. One week from next Monday is the lasi day to pay your fall installment of taxes. Get that out of the way early and save yourself the' worries of that closing rush. The school children are enjoying a couple of days vacation while the teachers attend the annual convention and after the first six weeks period, the rest is, appreciated if appearances count. Now let Hon. Herbert Hoover second the motion of Alf M. Landon that President Roosevelt doesn't amount to a “whoop’' ano then have exSenator Jim Watson move to make it una_imous. In the meantime the people continue to have faith in the man who has at least made an honest effort to help them. The stock market is coining back and those who bought at the bottom a day or two ago are now smiling as they realize a handsome profit. A rush to cash in will probably bring another slight slump, but we doubt if the prices of the good stocks can long remain below their actual worth, based on dividends. The primary elections will soon be on and its not too early to advise that those contemplating entering these races should do so with the knowledge that only one can win, that the other has a right io present his cause and that the loser owes his fullest support to the winner. That makes harmony and harmony means success at the November elections. Th<s kidnapping of Charles S. Ross of Chicago recently seems to have been about as low a crime as has been committed in this country in recent years. The kidnappers collected a $50,000 ransom but did not release tbelr man and G-men have started the hunt. The serial numbers of the bills were kept and the use of these will eventually lead to the capture of those who participated, it is believed. Advertise in your home newspaper. A community is not all it. should be unless it supports a newspaper that provides the happollings, the markets and th< sports. Such a newspaper needs qtid requites the actual support of the business men. Always the paper assists in fighting for the

improvements, the additions, the factories, the public affairs that serve its people and every one profits when you use a liberal sup- ' ply of printer's ink. t Nineteen lives were lost in the 1 crath of an airship near Salt Lake I City this week, the bodies being recovered after a perilous hunt by , the searching party and after the I wreck had been spotted by a plane, i Last winter, you may remember, J there were a number of these | i wrecks in the mountain districts • and there are indications by this j 1 early crash that the records may be repeated. It seems the mountain sections are not just the best i for winter flying. Occasionally a readjustment of; advertising rates of any newspapet* are necessary and we find that is I , true with the Daily Democrat now.' We will, as we always have, do 1 our best to serve you at the lowest possible cost and we hope that ■ each advertiser will see the advantages of a just and equitable rate in comparison with the amount of space used and its frequency. We will be very glad to discuss your problems along this line with you and to do every thing we can to assist you in building a larger ' and a permanent increase of bus-' ’ iness. Alf M. Landon admits that thej things the President is trying to, have done are wonderful but he is l opposed to the method. Os course < he ;?nd his cohorts would be : against any method proposed by | the Democrats. It is plain that hej and Mr. Hoover and other pro- 1 , fessional politicians are trying to discredit Mr. Roosevelt, realizing , that as long as he has such a i standing with the people, he t an; continue to lead his party to vic- ; tory. The President will continue i : his fight for the people in the ord-1 ■ inary walks of life. Mr. Landon to I • the contrary, notwithstanding. George A. Hall has resigned as Republican national committeeman for Indiana because he will not be able to give the “attention and| vigor" to the 1938 campaign which he feels the situation calls for. Well, if Mr. Ball can't do it. no one can. To be sure he is getting along in years to the point where younger men ought to be carrying the load but we doubt if they find' one with more pep than this man who during the past year or two has juggled millions of dollars worth of railway property to show a handsome profit and give it all to worthy charities. Mr. Ball is evidently more interested in doing things for his fellowman than wasting time in settling factional disputes within his political party. Middle west universities report all-time record enrollments. This item of news is of greater import•■nce than the latest report of battles and bombings from the war trout. Young people are seeking ' knowledge. There is more to learn than ever before, and youth wants to learn it. There is always a frontier. Once it was geographical. • and men in covered wagons shielded their eyes from the western sun : to search out a camping place in a new land. Today the frontier is in the field and the laboratory, the community and the editorial desk. It is the line between the old and the new knoweldge. Beyond this frontier lies the conception of life as a glorious opportunity to use the unharnessed resources of the world. To the vigorous young, nothing is impossible. The tired and frustrated old may say. “Here is something that ought to be done j but you can never do it.” But the young will say, "If it ought to be done, we ll do it.” And you know they will. —The Prairie Farmer. , o * TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY , From the Daily Democrat Oct. 21, 1917 was Sunday. o Mrs. Avon Burk has been visiting reUtives at Evanston and Cincago ’ 1 this week
