EDITORIAL

The eyes of the whole nation are turned upon the State of Indiana. The governor of the state has been given the power of a czar. Every public official, except those elected will be almost directly under his power. All employees of the state in all divisions will have to look to Mr. McNutt for “bread and butter”. If the state pays $600 on the salary of each school teacher, then the governor will have a great deal to say as to who gets the positions. Mr. McNutt will either make a great governor, or make a great “bust”, which it is will depend upon how wisely and how well he uses his power. Business prospects are brighter right now than at any time during the past two years. For instance a law has been passed by the Indiana legislature giving more protection to bank depositors; Roosevelt will be sworn in as president on March 4th, bringing a “new deal” to the whole country; spring is almost here and folks just feel better; the sales tax has passed the Indiana legislature--a thing desired by farm and home owners; then, too, beer has been legalized in Indiana. That is something! Over the radio the other night we heard a representative of a big automobile company say that over 8000 more cars (of his make) had been sold so far in 1933 than in the corresponding period last year. A total of over 50,000 cars had been delivered to owners. When you have news of any kind, school news„ church news, entertainments of any kind, or social news, see that the correspondent from your community has it. We are glad to get this help. The experiment in Russia is going to fail. It is the other extreme from an absolute monarchy. It is going to demonstrate that the common property is not the solution and that when man is deprived of the fruits of his superior energy or intelligence above that of the mass, the incentive for accomplishment is largely removed. Even those who have been promoting this theory of government are giving it the lie for the reason that they have now taken the place of the former oppressors and are living in luxury and affluence while the mass struggles in poverty. The sham and hypocrisy of their program will one day dawn on the masses and they will awaken to find that oppression is no different at the hands of their own class than it is at the hands of the hated aristocracy. Oppression is oppression wherever it is found. It is likewise true that authority and liberty bring new responsibilities that are not sensed by those who have never born the burden of authority.

DOROTHY M. FRY

Born to Mr. and Mrs. Henry Parmalee on February 21st, a daughter, Betty Jean. The Bridge Club met last Tuesday evening at the C. E. Minninger home. High score awards were made to Dorothy Fry, Mrs. Fred McRoberts, Mr. Fred McRoberts, and Mr. A. Hawkins. Consolation awards were made to Mrs. William Hayes, and Mr. Clyde Warner. A delectable luncheon was served at a late hour, consisting of date and walnut cake with whipped cream, and coffee. On Thursday afternoon in the school auditorium the Woman’s Club met with Mesdames J. Wolgemuth, R. Born, W. Fry and Dorothy Fry as hostesses A special feature of the business meeting was a talk given by Mrs. Barhide of the Oakland Woman’s Club, who is chairman of 4-H Club activities in the Woman’s Club. A book contest was the afternoon’s diversion in which winners were Mrs. G. Grant; Mrs. C. Rader of the Schneider Club, and of the guests Mrs. Barhide was awarded first. Consolation prize was given to Mrs. A. Vicory. A special part of the afternoon in connection with the club was a shower given for Mrs. John Born, a member. Many dainty bits of clothing were in the many parcels which Mrs. Born received. The school stage, especially decorated for the occasion, was the scene of the “shower”. A surprise indeed was the fate of C. E. Minninger on Thursday evening, when a number of friends gathered at his home to celebrate his birthday. Mr. Minninger had gone hunting with a brand new dog, when a hurry message was given him that his wife had fallen down the cellar steps and broken her leg. Needless to say “Dolly” made for the cellar at about 100 miles per hour--and was he surprised! Bridge was the evening's occupation, after which a luncheon was served of sandwiches, fruit dessert, and coffee. Mrs. John Daun, a new bride, was another much surprised Schneiderite on Friday evening when members of the Daughters of Sara of the Presbyterian Church, and several guests gathered at the Emil
