Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, everywhere, at any and all times. It's corn planting time a id the fanners are busy every hour they can get in the fields. , Sixty graduates and their rela- — tives and friends are finding this one of the busiest weeks of their : existence and of course it is comparably happy. Every body is saying that times I are getting better and that we are in for an era of prosperity and that | helps for after all much of a de- , pressien is due to talk. Since the Boy Scouts enjoy the Camporees so much there is no good reason why they shouldn't have more of them for undoubtedly they are a good thing for them and a splendid influence for the community. Next Saturday will be Poppy Day, a popular occasion, when every patriotic citizen will give a coin to the cause of aiding those who sacrificed health to protect the country. By all means wear a poppy Saturday and show your loyalty to those so desrving. The supreme court holds that a government tax can be collected from football games, which certaiu- * ly sounds correct. It has become a big business for the autumn months and it seems would be about as easy away of aiding in j the overhead as could be found. It's up to you as a good citizen to see that you are qualified to vote. If you have moved, changed your name, have not voted the > past two years or for any other reason are not properly listed at the cotit y clerk's office, see that you are between now and October 10th. With Memorial Day on Monday, we come again this week to one of those double holidays when the accident record is so high. Be sure to plan to be more careful than ever. Keep your car under control so if the other fellow is reckless you can get out of his way. The war scare is over m Europe again and the Czechs and Germans have recalled their troops from the border. Now if some one doesn't say the wrong thing at the wrong time, if the elections turn out al- • right and the summer heat doesn't jit National Safety Council

get too strong, every thing will bo lovely fur a while at least. A group of wise Republican bus- ( iness men, meeting in New York City this week, decide that bust iness is on the upgrade and that within sixty days will be going t along near normal. That's some- ' thing and credit is due the national administration for saving a serious situation that for a time look- > jjed like another depression. By i | quick and sensible action it has 1 apparently been averted. i J Edwin Kauffman will serve as 1 chairman of the "Cooperate with Roosevelt" club in Adams county, a movement now nation wide, to urge full support for the President I who is making a sincere and honest fight for the people. The new organization will assist in arousing interest and getting out the vote on election day. It's an important job and Mr. Kauffman has the energy and ability to put it over in a big way. He should have your sincere support. I Earl Martin will be the Democratic candidate for trustee of! Kirkland towship, the recount less-1 cuing his vote but one and giving i him a margin of three over H. H. I High, present trustee. The con- ■ I test showed the care with which i the ballots are counted and cleared , the air of any charges to the con- , trary or of any errors that might ■ i have occurred. Mr. High con-1 | gratulated the winner and express-1 | cd his desire to assist him in the I j November election, stating that he ; I never thought there had been in- 1 I tent to defraud but because of the ' close race, believed a recount | might show a change when the ■ mutilated ballots were included. I The affair is closed and there is ’ general feeling of good wTO. — — If big business used the same j kind of bookkeeping in its figures for government expense that it uses in its own industries, it would ! discover that instead of a deficit, the tiatkrn has been making money, j When great industries expand, j they do not pay from income. They I write down the cost as an invest-1 ment. They do what the govern-j inent has done—issue bonds upon , the future. They rely upon the | future to earn profits. They be- i lieve they can earn more money, by improved inventions and the I installmet of labor saving devices. ' They know that unless they do these things, they will soon be out ; of business, surrendering to competitors who have such improvements. They have not been mistaken in the past when they have | i built new telephone lines and I equipped them with the inventions ■ that now permit them to deliver a 1 dozen messages over the lines which formally carried but one. Would a great power company, building a new plant to replace an old one, call their investment in that plant a loss because it did not earn its cost the first year? High school and college graduates shortly will be faced with the task of finding jobs and the out-, look is not exactly bright in view of the large unemployment. Figures recently tabulated by a Cleveland newspaper give an interesting sidelight to the problem and leave the conclusion that more young men should learn a trade instead of wanting to immediately step into the presidency of some company. Cleveland high school ' pupils were asked what they intended to take up as a vocation. The answer showed that 90.3 per cent are preparing to enter the white collar or professional fields. These fields incidentally employ only 9.3 per cent of the working population of that city. If Cleveland is a typical city the percentage will probably hold good for any town. It was found, in other words, that only 9.7 per cent of the students were training themselves for the type of work which occupies 90.7 per cent of the population. It is a well known fact that there is a shortage of skilled

By GEORGE GRANTHAM International Illustrated News Writer ABOARD TWENTIETH CENTURY LIMITED—Tom Ryan is the world's speediest stenographer —he takes dictation at 85 miles an hour. A veritable secretary on wheels, i he takes his shorthand notes to j the sibilant accompaniment of a mighty train in motion and tranI iscribes them to the flashing passage of scenery at more than mileI a-minute speeds. For 17 years Ryan has been private secretary to business men | who travel on the Twentieth CenV tury Limited between New York and Chicago. Where the ordinary i private secretary must satisfy only one employer, Ryan works for as I many as a dozen a day. He writes their letters, business or personal, and fills requests that . might seem odd to anyone but a ' private secretary. What Now? , When Ryan is summoned by a I passenger he never knows just | what will be required of him. It I might be a man who wants to dictate his Will. It might be a playi wright, struck by an idea for the J I end df a first act and in a feverish

hurry to put it on paper. It might be a statesman, ready to dictate an important speech. All these he has done, and more. He has bought shirts and pajamas for passengers who found themselves without them, wiring ahead and picking them up at the next train stop. In a similar manner he has procured medicine, umbrellas and backgammon boards. When a man was struck by a sudden nostalgia for his favorite song, Ryan wired ahead to the station master at Toledo for a portable phonograph and a record The passenger got his song. An advertising man. preparing copy on the train for a series o advertisements, wanted synonyms for a certain word. Ryan got him three pages of definitions from encyclopedias and dictionaries procured by the station master at Cleveland. It was all in the day s work. Ryan is one of a staff of expert secretaries, one member of wnic is assigned to every Twentieth Century train. . A gray-haired soft-spoken man, he has done woi for scores of celebrities actors, senators, financiers and captains of industry. . Ryan's services are free, but n
