It's not a bit too soon to be planning for Christmas and many wise and experienced people are starting to shop. Next Monday's paper will in elude special features supporting McMillen day and we are sure you will read it with unusual interest. Four thousand extra copies will be distributed. Read today’s advertisements.! There are many that will give you ideas for seasonable buying and the cool weather should make you want to be finding out just where you can get what you want to the best advantage. The annual roll call of the American Red Cross opened today and Chairman Walter Krick, supported by an excellent organiation and many volunteers hope to make a quick and successful campaign that will put the county over a hundred per cent. The capital building at Lexing ton. Ky., is reported infested with bed bugs, causing a lot of scratching. We have always heard that politics makes strange bed fellows but this' is going to the extreme. The hugs, it is believed, were brought in during the flood last winter. If. as Mr. Morgenthau states, the administration starts on a program of cutting expenditures, to balance the budget and to otherwise start the nation on a reduction of its public debt, stocks will rise and the era of prosperity will take on a new lease of life. At least, that is the prediction of many students of economics. ,The many friends of Frank G. Thompson, Bluffton newspaper man and representative from this district in the Indiana legislature, are happy over the reports that he is the choice of many party leaders as the candidate for state auditor. He is a splendidly qualified man. is honest and courteous and we can think of no one who would make a better official in that important place. More accidents occur over the. week-end than at any other time and Earl Crawford, chairman of the state highway commission is asking the cooperation of those who operate truck lines to keep the trucks off the state highways as much as possible at that time. It is believed this would prevent serious accidents until such time as it becomes possible to have i separate highways for the freight cars- Sounds reasonable. r No where in all America has , there been a sounder growth than right here in Adams county the ( past few years, due to the fact , that we have a number of wonder- , ful industries and to the almost continuous improvements made by | the McMillen Company in thep sugar factory and Soya bean in- ( dustry. It is therefore fitting that , McMillen day will be observed next j - Monday. This community is ouej

hundred per cent for its local institutions and we sincerely hope and believe the fine spirit will conI tinue. Next Monday will occur, In conjunction with the McMillen cele- , bration, the dedication of the new solvent process plant at the soya bean grounds. This is the third’ manufacturing concern to be dedi-1 rated here thin year. The Clover- 1 leaf Creameries erected a large i addition last spring, the General Electric opened a splendid new club room and they are now building a large addition to their factory here and now the new bean mill is i ompleted. That's some 1 progress that- any community should feel very happy about. We do. President Roosevelt is not a I dictator or a czar. He believes in counselling with those experienced in the various lines of industry and agriculture in aiding him to work out problems and to make this a better land in which to live. This week he has conferred with such men as Gerard Swope of Gen--1 era! Electric. General Wood of Sears-Roebuck. Henry C. Turner! of Turner Construction Company and S. Soane Colt. New York banker. These men with heads of var-| ious government department will advise on the proper course that' I will stimulate the spending of private capital for building construe ' tion. It ought to and will work. —_ Examinations for county probation officers will be held December I 3 in the state house, the state probation commission announced yesterday. Application blanks can be ) obtained by writing the commission. Those qualified to take the examination must be high school graduates with a year's experience as a social worker, or have been a paid probation officer for four ; years, or be a graduate of a recognized college or university. Probation officers make investigations of cases under the jurisdiction of the court and guide and supervise; activities of those on probation. Examinations will be both written) and oral, with the commission glv-j ing the oral test. The special political writers, as l usual, so partisan that their words sound like the pencil pushers maybe on a pay roll, are now predict-, ing that the special session of congress will he a failure, that what-1 ever they do will be wrong, that the President will come out of it; badly whipped, that the country: has suddenly turned Republican and so on and so on. without end until the fact that they are playing politics and nothing else is so evident that it's pitiful. Special | interests want a change at Wash-\ ington and evidently will stop at) nothing to get it and some way or| other seem to have convinced most' of these fellows who get paid for giving their views. Mr. Roosevelt is the people's friend and is try-1 ing to do something for them. Whyshould any one jump to conclusions? He has been right on nurn-i erous occasions and it's a good guess that he is yet. Prepare yourself for a terrific: campaign next year. State, county. city and township offices are to be filled, and for the last few w-eeks candidates have been popp-i ing up with their announcements. From early indications, voters are going to have a long list of office | seekers to choose from when they | enter the voting booths at the primaries next May. Voters are go-1 ing to undergo a terrific barrage when all those candidates start) out in the quest of votes. Since I 1934 the city elections have cotne at the same time as the state, court-1 ty and township. The change was, made by the 1933 slate legislature. While it causes a little more confusion, thousands of dollars are saved taxpayers. To hold the city elections separately is very costly. As a matter of fact, the change was made iu the name of govern- 1 meat economy. Those who yell)

LUDLOW TO AID I ECONOMY DRIVE Indiana Congressman Pledges Support In Budget Balancing Indianapolia, Nov. 12. — (U.PJ 1 American business will be put on ! its feet If the administration follows through its plans for retrenchment of spending and balancing of the budget. Congressman Louis Ludlow declared today. The Indianapolis congressman pledged himself to support the program outlined earlier in the week by Secretary of the Treasury Henry Morgenthau. Jr. Reduction in spending must be accompanied by "the enactment of certain measures for the relief of ' honest business." Ludlow said. The undistributed profits tax "has justified our worst years," he asserted. "Big coroprations can cushion that tax so that it does not materially injure them, but it is a mill- : stone around the neck of the little I fellow in business. It penalizes I thrift and makes it Impossible for | small and middle class business concerns to get ahead. That statute should be repealed outright. He listed three needs for honest business to get on its feet: first, a balanced budget; second, relief from the undistributed profits tax and a few other laws that bear unjustly on small business; and third, to be let alone and riot dictated to | or interfered with by the govern-1 ment. -o Boy Falls Under Harrow Conneaut.
