Don't forget while enjoying this delightful holiday that It’s the occasion for thanking God for your many blessings. That’s important too. Include a year's subscription to the Daily Democrat—only $3 00 in the first zone —to one of those you wish to remember in such a manner they will think of you each iHhv of the year. You can get your 1938 license plates for your car any time after December 10th aud the earlier you get them the easier it will be. Don’t get in that final line-up if, you can avoid it. The annual president’s ball will be held again this winter, the money thus derived to be used to aid those crippled by infantile paralysis. It's a splendid cause and those who buy tickets to this year's bail here are assured a fine time. Attorney John DeVoss will serve as chairman this year. When a man. either “insanely drunk or crazy" attacked Senator Borah in a Washington bus SunAy. he found the Idahoian a pretty good 72-year-old gentleman who. cau take care of himself. The, senator handed the attacker a couple of good jolts and a shove that cooled him until the conduct- j or could unload him. The Red Cross is our organization, composed of every citizen who believes in rendering first aid in cases of necessity and who can afford one dollar a year to be a member. The annual roll call is on and Walter Krick and his excellent organization hopes for a record that will place Adams county right out iu front- JOIN NOW. Tell those you meet that everything is O. K. If every one did that you would be surprised how soon it would be and how soon every body would be back on the pay roll. The surest way to create j hard times is to talk it. Mr. Roosevelt once said, “The only thing to fear is fear itself.’’ Shake it off, look for the bright spots and talk about them. Looks as though congress will agree on a crop bill that should be beneficial to millions, whether they get any where with the rest of the president's program or not. Cou-

trol of crop surpluses and a guar- ! anteed minimum price that will permit the farmer to kuow be la going to show some earnings for his year's toll, have much to do with the future prosperity of this country. The Hamilton Club in Chicago has folded up after two generations j us the outstanding Republican organization of the middle west. A new building erected in 1912 and enlarged in 1919, on credit, put: them on the hummer and they now list an indebtedness of a million and a half. Other clubs of this kind are going a similar route for the going has been tough the last few years. There is a fine sentiment in "poor relief" and every decent citi zen favors taking care of the un- J fortunate but of course that must be done wisely or it will soon exhaust itself. Some one has to pay when others receive these benefits and It is good Judgment to use j every precaution so that only those j deserving the benefits under the law receive them. The bill for securities is rising steadily and in a few years it may be one of the j difficult problems. Minnesota again cops the Big Ten conference football championship. but after a tougher season than usual. I’urdue upset Indiana Saturday and took the "old oaken bucket" back to their campus after 1 a three years absence. The biggest surprise of the day came when Harvard defeated Yale, unbeaten . up to that time for the season. The gridiron year will close Thanksgiving with exception of a few specials like the Rose Bowl < tournament on New Years day. Quit croaking, throw away that long face and put on the round one that carries a smile, tell your neighbor that things are well with you, don't be one of those maJiciously trying to make things look daA—the country is iu fine condi-i tion as compared to any other and if we use common sense and opt!-: misnt instead of political propaganda and pessimism, we will be still better. After all in this country. we are the government and can run things as the majority wish it operated. As Mrs. Roosevelt said in her recent lecture at 1 Fort Wayne, •’government in a democracy, starts from the bottom —not the top." Dr- Gallup's poll of public opinion. as publised over the country Sunday shows that President Roosevelt is more than holding his own with the people, regardless of the vicious attacks upon him and j the unfair propaganda that has been dished out by columnists, I magazines and metropolitan press. Mr. Roosevelt was elected last year j by a plurality of 11.000,000 with a percentage of 62.5. Now more than a year after, the non-partisan poll shows his percentage to be 62.8, a gain of three tenths of one per cent. The how l comes largely from those who are methodically trying to break him down and is echoed some from members of congress. Surely this poll will be a warning to those who expect to be candidates again this year. o - 4 Answers To Test Questions Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed on Page Two 1.
