Have you noticed that nights start shortly after seven o'clock now? That's a sure sign that summer is nearing an end. 0 0 Cool nights have been the weather menu for about ten days and while we will no doubt have some hot days, it is not likely that we will experience many more “unsleepable” nights. It you're planning to plant grass seed this tall, this is a good time to get a supply and be ready to go to work as soon as the fall rains start. There are many who believe that tall plantings will survive the winter and be stranger next summer when the hot sun sets in. —j Ou—o Plans for taking care of the crowd at the state plowing eontest scheduled for St. Marys township in this county on August 27 have been completed and record crowd is expected to converge on state road 101 to witness the annual event It will be an event well worth seeing when the plowing champs take off to determine a winner. —O O— Police have rejuvenated the electric timing system on local streets and will continue a drive to curb speed of automobiles and motorcycles on local streets. It's a hard job to curb speed and i other auto violations without the cooperation of motorists. The local police force will continue to do all in its power to enforce the laws, and it will be to our advantage and safety if we give the police our unlimited cooperation. ■ "O— O' ■ The New York Giants baseball teain apparently will move to San Francisco, Cal., after the present season is completed and will be known as the San Francisco Giants. This action will probably steam up the plan of Brooklyn to move to Los Angeles. The two jvest coast cities are destined to become “big league" in baseball annals. It appears to be a wise move on the part of organized to become nationwide In its playing scope. It not only .creates more baseball interest, but it gives more representation to the various parts of the natio i. Both the Giants and Dodgers, should have success in their new bomes.

Training to become a missionary in the Belgian Congo is the present work of Rev. Harry Speakman, Pleasant Mills high school graduate and a Pennsylvania minister tor the last eight years. Rev Speakman, son of Mr. and Mrs. Richard Speakman, is presently studying in Tennessee and later will go to Belgium for a year's training in French. He is married and the father of two children and he is facing his future work with much optmism. His many Adams county friends wish this young Christian pioneer continued success and happiness in his great undertaking. O O Inch by inch the railroads are slipping back into law violation by permitting freight cars to be parked too close to street intersections. They are building up for more accidents and unless the statutes and ordinances are observed, we will soon be back where we were a few months ago when almost every street and railroad intersection was blocked from vision. All of the blame can’t be placed on the railroads. Our law enforcement officers are perhaps too lax. The various departments of government should be on their toes now, if ever, because their budgets for next year are up for discussion. If they are not doing the job to which they have been elected, why should they have more money for operations they fail to carry out? O O Indiana, where the recent highway land scandals rocked the decent people, was 47th of the 48 states, in allocations of money from the federal bureau of Roads for super-highway construction. Perhaps Indiana should have been penalized for permitting the highway thievery which was rampant in .the Hoosier state for several years. The ! big blame should go to the present administration which was given plenty of time to clean up the mess but which failed to cooperate with the federal bureau. The one other point which doesn’t seem fair is that it is our money which is being allocated and because of that fact, we should have a fair return of it. Good people of Indiana should never stop until all of the guilty of stealing from the state are fereted out and punished severely. We hate to think of the top criminals going free and toe underlings taking all the pun- . _ ishment.

Hoffa said Mark has repaid the union “with full interest.” He said he has repaid $6,000 or 87,000 to Mark and expects to be charged interest. —Hoffa borrowed another $25,000 from another real estate dealer, Henry Lower, who got $75,000 in two loans from the Bank of the Commonwealth, Detroit, where the union keeps much of its money. Hoffa said he had no recollection of threatening to pull out the union’s funds if Lower did not get the loan.
