The inoculations are being given to children in the second grade of school in Fort Wayne, one of the cities chosen for the experiment. The country hopes that medical science has discovered a serum that will inoculate children against this dread disease. 0 0 , ‘ A hitchhiker of sorts came very near losing his life in getting a free ride in a truck from Harrisburg, Pa., to Fort Wayne. He broke the seal on the truck and climbed in. The driver didn't unload his freight and for 28 hours the man was locked in the trailer. He was arrested and is being checked tor any probable police record. 0 o_ — A large share of the money received by the city from the state — gasoline tax is being used to re- - surface First and Third streets. Resurfacing these main arteries in the city's traffic system not only improves the streets, but will give the motorist a better break.

It appears that the Eisenhower administration will have to contend with the fiery Wisconsin senator for the next couple of years, unless Mr. Eisenhower steps in and ends the quarrels between the groups. 0 0 Growing Tepas:— Texas, our largest state, soon —will have one of the country’s largest cities. Metropolitan Houston will pass the million population mark in early July. Houston, in addition to being big, is fabulously wealthy, but it's not leaving other Texas cities far behind. The Dallas-Fort Worth area is Also expanding and ranks as one of the major plane-manu-facturing areas in the nation. Dallas County has a population of over 750,000, and with Tarrant County included; the figure reaches more than a million. The growth Os these Texas cities is not singular. Cities throughout the southwest are undergoing radical expansion. Albuquerque, N. M., registered an 84.1 per cent increase in population between 1940 and 1950.

★ EFFICIENT! Former Prosecuting Attorney with record of winning more than 500 criminal cases, without a single loss! RELIABLE! Former F. B. I. Agent — TO THE VOTERS OF ADAMS COUNTY: 1 have made a conscientious effort to see every voter in Adams County. You people have treated me wonderfully, and many of you have promised me your support in the coming election. I am deeply grateful. It has been impossible for me to see every one of you during this campaign, because the Adams Circuit Court has been in session every day, and I have been on the job. I know that you do not want me to neglect my duties as Judge, and I have not. To those of you whom 1 have not seen during this campaign, I take this means to solicit your support. I pledge that if I am elected Judge of the Adams Circuit Court I will continue to carry out my judicial duties, honestly and well, in strict compliance with the Canons of Judicial Ethics of the American Bar Association—A summary of Judicial Obligations of— WHAT A JUDGE SHOULD BE “In every particular his conduct should be above reproach. He should be conscientious, studious, thorough, courteous, patient, punctual, just, impartial, fearless of public clamor, regardless of public praise, and indifferent to private political or partisan influences; he should administer justice according to law; he should not allow other affairs or his private interests to interfere with the prompt and proper performance of his judicial duties, nor should he adipinister the office for the purpose of advancing his personal ambitions or increasing his popularity.’’ Canons of Judicial Ethics of the American Bar Association. 1 I EARNESTLY SOLICIT YOUR VOTE. - THANK YOU !
