"Implement dealers are in financial straits such as they have never passed through, but dependent a you are upon the farmer who is your largest purchaser it is inevitable that you should share with him his periods of adversity as we'l .s his periods ot prosperity.

DAVID HAD IRE - PATIENCE THAN JOB Cobbler Assigns His Better Half in Hammond Divorce Court. Job and his bolls had nothing on David Garben when it comes to patier.ee. Pave has a little- shoe shop at 390 Sibley St.. Hammond. He and his .wife. Etta, have been living in apartments at the rear of the store. It has been an exciting life, according to Dave's story. To begin with, Etta has an awful temper and when it is roused she can spill vile na.mes something terrible. She insists on calling Dave a drunkard and a gambler which Dave says hurts his feelings be-aue it isn't true. But Etta wouldn't confine her pestering to the private apartments. She would sail right out into the shop when customers were there end begin "raizing" him. If she got a chance she would wait on the customers, tako their money arid then overlook the fact that )ave had a cash register. Her pocket was good enough. When she couldn't get the money from the customers direct, Etta wouhl slip around when D.tve war. busy pesroirg soles OT! shoes and slyly slip some money from the drawer. Dave knew it all the time but he wouldn't l;Uk. It would simply mean more trouble. For three ytars he -stood it. The tongue lashings weren't all. She licked him occasionally and eery now and then threatened his life. Dave took it ail with supreme patience. He thought the death thre-.ts -errn't seriou.v.

PUTS JINX Mike Jablonski, of West Hammond, who pulled the daring holdup at the Hammond Country Club one night three years ago. using an unloaded revolver, and for which he spent six months in the house of correction, is in trouble again. Yesterday afternoon Judge Kowalsk! in the West Hammond police court bound .Mike pver to the grand jury after edivence had been presented showing that he had broken into Mrs. Mary MamaJ s bake shop early Monday morning. He made too much racket and they caught him In the act. Liquor is Mike's jinx. Every time he has gone counter to the law he has been under the influence of intoxicants. Ordinarily he is a pretty nice fellow. The Country Club job was done while he was "stewed." He was in the same stats when he "rolled" a fellow at a rarnival two years ago and got another jail sentence. Monday morning it was a shot of moonshine, given him by a Hammond boy, which caused the criminal instincts to come to the fore. At icast that is what Mike says.

Hammond Attorney Speaks For Mayor Brown At Robertsdale BILL WARMS UP Some of the high lights in W. J. McAleer's great speech last night: "I want to say Dan Brown has given Hammond, not one of the best but the best admonistration it ever had." "This town under Dan Brown was run at a cheaper per capita, cost than any ether town of its size In the United States You can t answer that." "I challenge any man to show me a solitary thing Ed. Eimon did '.i the, legislature- His greatest r--o.-'1 as auditor wa-s tho number of saloc-n licenses he aimed." ."Would Ed. Simon stay or the yh like Brown? No. If Simon is elfted you'll have to get out h searcVi warrant to find him." "The good people of this torr, are with Dan Brown and I'm glad to I f one of them." "A mayor who would not enforce the dry law would be a traitor a id a 00 ward." BY THE POLITICAL REPORTER W. J. McAleer cried , 'shame ' at th. mayor's enemies la-st night it IlcterLedale.

McAleer made his bow- in tis campaign in the Fourth ward where he has been an idol ever since that day twenty-five years ago when he becan-e the political advisor for the iatt Rich ard Schaa. Dan Brown, a? we all admit, is not an accomplished politician lie t s man with a great deal of tenacity whe went Into office inexperienced and aitr four years of hard, earnest and conscientious work has a firmer grasp cn municipal affairs than any mayor wh.ever aaA in the city hall.
