That will bring the labor troubles to a head and lead to a quick settlement of the strike which has been in progress there for some weeks. It seems that in this country we have to go the limit before we get our senses and settle down. With the improvement of Mercer Avenue past the Adams County Memorial hospital the adaptability of the present site is all the more enhanced. The proposed nurses home, to be located south of the hospital, is an ideal site and will form an attractive point of interest to motorists who travel over V. S. road 33. Yon can t always get the breaks. That holds good in business, sports, politics, throughout life in general. Young Vander Meer who pitched two no-hit, no-run games in one week, had a game won from Boston up until the ninth inning, when i he put over just the right ball and the batter socked it out for a home run. winning the game. So goes life. Young Corrignn seems like a' regular fellow. He doesn’t want i to perform on the stage and hopes, that the old V. S. will not make j much, ado over his flights to the Emerald Isle. He apparently has his feet on the ground, despite the fact that he tried to kid the country that he thought he was flying back to Los Angeles and got across the ocean before he saw his mistake. French Quinn, always interested in historical background ot this community, is sponsoring a program which will include the marking of old landmarks and historical spots in the county The site of the first settlement here, the first village, the first home and other interesting places will be designated with appropriate markers. It is a flne thing to do. for in the rush of business and the present day mode ot living, we don’t want to forget the pioneer and his effort in building this community.

A NURSE’S HOME IS PROPOSED: The long felt want and need so a nurse's home at the Adam j County Memorial Hospital maj; bi fulfilled If the bond issue is ap proved ami the I’WA allows i grant for Its construct ion. lt A joint petition by the Board o ,t County Commissioners and th' Hospital Trustees has been madt to the Federal Government seek 0 Inga grant of 45 per cent of the 0 cost, not to exceed 155,650, accord 5 ing to the preliminary estimates 5 made’by Architect A. M. Strauss 0 Adams County’s participation It 0 the total cost would not exceed $30,607.50. Bonds would be issu ed Tor this amount and retired over a period of from 10 to 20 years, which plan would not make an excessive levy tor bond and interest payments. A modern home for the nurses, In keeping with the architecture style of the main hospital building. is being designed by Architect Strauss. It would provide • quarters lor the nurses and make available the space on the third floor of the present building for hospital purposes. During rush periods when the hospital is filled and the need for services overtaxes the capacity , of the institution, the nurses must seek rooms in private homes. Suck instances have occurred frequent!ly ix the post lew years. Improvements must eontitme mi progressive communities. In DeI catur and Adams county fh’e people have the progressive spirit. The construction of the nurses home is another link in the development of public institutions and will no doubt be approved by the taxpayers. in view of the giants now being made by the PWA. it is an opportune time to enlarge and fulfill needs of public institutions, with the idea of being able ablo to serve the wants of the people. I With a gram of 15 per cent, the cost of the proposed improvement would be reduced nearly fifty per tent, as far as local cost is concerned. OLYMPIC HONOR TO FINLAND: No country deserves the honor of staging the Olympic games of 1940 more than Finland. The merited award has been extended officially by the president of the international Olympic committee, i Withdrawal of Japan eliminated the bitterness which must have marred the games at Tokyo. Competing countries may now exclude every factor but the customary fri- ndly rivalry of the world’s athletic stars. The United States should be especially gratified that little Fin ! land and the city of Helsingfors I will be host to its young men. I This conservative, thrifty country I is the only one that makes regular payments on its debt. Instead of I finding excuses to repudiate a just lobligation, the Finns tighten the economic belt in order to maintain their reputation for international integrity. Finland is making steady progress, so far as limited capital and resources permit. The nation has won the right to entertain the Olympiad through its remarkable contribution to sports j No other country could accept the . honor more appropriately, since . jits distance runners established a . • supremacy in keeping with the . games of ancient Greece. . Commendation also should be , expressed for the trend toward [ more rugged sportsmanship which . the location will encourage The . Finnish government will finance r the enterprise and work will be , started immediately on a stadium. The Olympiad will not be staged r on the lavish scale of recent 5 events, however, nor will there be the magnificent display and the ■ ballyhoo which marked the propagandising at Berlin in 1936. The “simple life" should be helpful to sports. The bousing problem may be simplified by using ocean lin as hotels during the progress

He went shopping aealn today with United States Minister John Cudahy and bought more clothes for his London trip. ' Another invitation he accepted was to lead a parade in his honor ; through Brooklyn borough starting from Floyd Bennett airport where' he took off for Los Angeles and , landed in Ireland. Most of the offers came from the i United States. One would have paid him $15,000 for a 500-word magazine article entitled “Why young men should fly." i “This would be commercializing ; my flight and I'm not going to do I it." Corrigan said. Then, referring to general news I paper and magazine offers, Corri- i gan said: "They are looking for exclusive stories and offering to pay plenty of money. But the people should get the news without fellows like me having to sell It.” He was extremely annoyed by reports that he had received $2,- : 009 for a radio broadcast to the United States and reiterated that I :: money has no interest for me." Corrigan has received numerous offers from motion picture firms It was understood that Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer. 20th Century-Fox films and Warner Brothers have made offers through Dublin agents, , but he turned down all. The “wrong direction" flier also , has received many offers for pubH lie appearances in the United States. One was from the Irish counties association ot New York to attend a banquet in his honor. If he accepts, the presidential suite of a New York hotel will be re-' served for him. It was understood 1 ' that at least seven United States cities have offered him their j “keys." including New York and Los Angeles. Corrigan hated to be parted from his beloved nine-year-old plane
