GENERAL SCHOOL NOTES

By Jack Vanderford WNearly all the students returned to their studies on Tuesday, January 2. The attendance was very good and éverybody seemed in high spirits. It seems ag ifi Santa Claus paid his annual visit to this community for here and there throughout the school building we see students wearing the regular Christmas neckties and other gift clothing.. Upon their return the pupils found the school house looking much better for the housecleaning it had during vacation. All the desks are sporting a brand new coat of varnish, thus the rooms take on a clean and shiny appearance. I think that every one wishes to congratulate the CWA workers on their good work. . -

Old Age Pension Letter Editor The Banner ' Ligonier, Ind. Dear Sir: ; : Old age pension opponents already on their last legs, have heen dealt a hard blow by Delaware, one of the twenty-six old age pension states. “Even with pensions, we would still have ;poorhouses” has been the cry. But Delaware has closed its poorhouses. In their stead there is a modern, properly equipped welfare home.

Speaking at dedication of the home Governor C. Douglass Buck recalling passage of the pension bill two years ago, declaredd: : “This is a notable day in the history of Delaware, a day which citizens of our state can always recall with pride. Today marks not only consummation of that splendig piece of legislation passéd by the state legislature two years-ago, but it marks also the tangible expression in bricks and mortar of the ideals and hopes and aspirations ang ‘prayers of high minded men and women through countless years.” Indiana soon to begin paying old age pensions, coulgd well -follow the lead of Delaware. Our board of state charities reports some ‘poorhouses with wholly unsuitable buildings; others in constant danger of burning; only ten of ninetytwo have proper hos pital facilities, although only . about one in ten: of the inmates is able bodied. :

“Wipe out the poorhouses’” long has been the slogan of the Fraternal Order of Eagles leading old age pension advocate. That slogan Is becoming a reality. Delaware has pointedd the way. :

Very truly yours, , Glenn E. Roe, Wawaka Ind.

ELECTIONS IN ‘1934, _ ReoTganization of City Governments Also to Add to Interest. - to 1934 Voting. . The year 1934 will be one ofi the most intensive years, politically, that Noble county has ever known. Not only will the number of officers to be elected exceed that of other years, but the complete reorganization of city governments will create interest.

For the first time in modern election history the city elections will come simultaneously with the county and state elections in 1934. This was brought about by the skip-election law enacted by the 1933 legislature, which delayed for a year city elections scheduled for 1933. : : Every elective county, township and city office will be filled by 1934 elections, including a number of state officials; the secretary of state and Uniteq States senator will be elected. The 1934 elections are already beginning to attract attention of poli-tically-minded invididuals in county, township and city circles. The largest field of'candidates in history will be subjected to the will of the voters.
