Even the announcement from 1 the weather bureaus —fair and warmer —helps to instill confidence j and hope and pep in the average person. It begins to look like several ot the nations ot central Europe have ' prepared for war so well they are anxious io see how their air forces, marine fleets, infantry and long distance guns will work. Fred Bays, the new state chairman. will confer with the county chairmen and vicechairmen ot this district Wednesday at a meeting to be held in Fort Wayne. He will tell them his plans and urge them to help him accomplish his purpose. I Governor Stark ot Missouri, who gained lame the past tew weeks by his assistance in breaking up I the Pendergast machine in Kansas City, is being considered as a candidate for the Democratic nomination for the presidency. That means a state light as Senator Clark has been in the lime light several years. They ought to compromise by being for McNutt ot ludusna.

| uus ways, it la splendid to have him advising with the departments at Washington. He will be ot | great service to bis country and i, ha should be permitted to attend Ito bls duties tn the manner he moat desire* and without too much 'j publicity. ‘ H you got a notice from the county clerk that your name baa been dropped from the roil of j' registered voters, you should Im I mediately requaitty by sending la ' the card which will accompany ' that notice. That a the easy way r to do It and ot course you want to ’! keep your right of suffrage. It la ' rather aurprielM that la thia coun- . ty it has been necessary to send , out 1.(35 notices of thia kind, due I to the fact that thcae voter* did ' not take advantage of their oppor--11 unity to go to the polls last November. Governor Dickinson, ot MichlI gau. wealthy and eighty years old. looked at his first salary check 1 and then did a little grandatand- ' mg by proclaiming it 100 large and jcalliiyr tor a cut of all state sallariea. No one will claim tha t bis salary of 15.000 per year is exorbitant and wc doubt it any of the I state employes are overpaid. I i That's not where the big leaks are Saving a few thousand dollars on salaries and then supporting some measure that means the spending of millions, which is being done every where, doesn't mean any noticeable reduction in taxes. "What America needs most of all in this twentieth century is a recrudescence of Jefi-rsomauisiu. a rebirth of the American spirit, dedicated to peace and harmony and neighborliness in the family ot nations, a determination that ours shall not be a government ot the tew and tor the few but a : government of the people aud tor the people Though Thomas Jefferson has been dead tor 113 years, jhe still lives. From out ot the background of history be i»umts the way through the wilderness ot world complications, economic dis-1 trees, class hatreds, bureaucracy, and special privilege to a glorious fulfillment of our national uvsiiuy if we have the vision to see and the courage to do. Times change, and in the eternal sweep ot years governments take ou many varied and fleeting forms, but I like to believe and I do believe— I will put it that way—that the great humanitarian principles of Jefferson, radiating love and comradeship and friendliness and helpfulness, were born up yonder in Heaven, clog* 1 to God and the angels, and will , never die. but will go on aud one. doing good forever, aud that. Mr Speaker. Is why 1 am a Jeffersonlan Democrat.' -From the speech of Congressman Louis Ludk>w of Indiana, observing the 136th birthday <>f Thomas Jefferson. That "safest driver" in luiaware, who has driven Soe.ovM) miles without an accident, should add a fifth to his rules for avoiding motor mishaps. He should warn against depending ou the bora for accident prevention Uta tour rules are: Keep your eyes to the front and ou the road aU the time; don't depend on the other occu pants in the rear seat; don t depend on the other fellow to be safe—be safe yourself, give the right of way to the other fellow even though ho may be dead wrong Hie rule for bring ante is eternal vigilance and always playing safe himself. That rule generally adopted would eliminate practically all acciden's excepting the few that might be due to mechanical defects or unforseon developments. The contributing ; factor In the accident totals Is the extent to which drivers roly on homebody else getting out of tbe way or to give way. There is too much of the ypirit ot taking chances. Nothing contributes to I that more than does the use of the auto horn A large percentage of t AuinuobUiato Uuak they have dock
