Smith " “Your children, and your childrens’ -children”—that heart-throb +‘phrase ‘ adopted by Republicans, can be freely discussed by all citizens of ~+lndtana with serious reflection on - what it actually means so far as - gchools and tax payments at the courthouge are concerned.

- The future of our children wiil bo at stake at the polls November 3rd, and we should gee thousands of faii ers and mothers casting their oallot against the Republican proposals to make & political football of Indiana’s splendid system of public education and against the reduvction of teachers’ pay $12,000,000, or $5OO _per teacher, iy repeal of the gross income tax law. S

Indiana’s splendid = public = school system stands first among those of the 48 states of the Union who have the combination qualities of being adequately financed, - equally supdorted, teachers adequately ' paid, school terms being none less' than the eight-months minimum and -no school terms being none less' than the eight<months minimum and .‘mo school district being forced to eclose ‘down. According to the state school superjntendent, Kansas schools in any one of these ranks 48th.

The public school system of:lndiana actually forged ahead through the years: of the Hoover panic while the schools of practically every other “state in the nation were being forced to call on the Federal goverament for loans. Chicago had to beg for a loan to pay public school teachers who had gone without pay for' two: years. Ip Indjana we had a Governor who sald other things 'ceuld wait, but that the schools and the feeding of the hungry could not and would not be sacrificed. The result of hiy program was that<ln* ‘diana was the first State to abandon Federal rellef and has gained rmas _tional fame for her school program. There’s no escaping the fact that our “children and our childrens’ children” will be paying_ taxes im America for a long time to, come;" because, .our fathers and our fath.era’ fathers have paid -them for 150 years to meet the cost of essential government which they set up" for: themselves. Children of 1917 <are. _now. paying the costs of the World _War, and we are still payiig the costs of the Spanish American War and of. oa.Livih Wz, Bvasy (e Anestos been involved in & conflict. tor national defense and the future of America,” it has cost money. In 1982 ~the national credit had to be' dised when no other credit was available for the defense lotv4m¢rig§g?eople against economice destruction, Since. then, we have been spending money: for the future of -America, preserving national resources, building useful public works and restoring’shé morale of hopelesg citizens. °iq. . A 8 the'Presidenit’ says, thé net _cost has beén ‘around 8 billion-dol ‘lafs 'to’ win tHe war Sdgafnt ocone-

@W«m‘vm purs bot a 1 2 Bio spen Lr ‘tructionn 6f'Buman life In two years of“the World War. The eight billions ‘spent to win a 24 billion ins crease in national income and to restore another 80 biliion of property values in Americq is acheap price t& pay for saving a Nation and. is ’1 splendid investment for our ‘children afid ‘éhtldren’s children. - Having balanced the family budget of the American people, President Roosevelt announces that Recovery in another year or two wi'l balance the national- fiscal budget without any additional or new taxes. That mears that the Democratic program stad firmly against the inven;tion' of sales, consumer and excise taxes that would make the laboring ‘man and farmer begin paying for the Hoover panic today. It means that those who are not now paying federal {ncome taxes will not have to start paying them if Democrats tremaln in office. >

There i 8 hardly g laboring man and very few farmers, who even know in Indiana what the Form No.. 1040 for filing Federal Income Tox. reports look like, yet they are being persuaded by the ‘' Liberty Leagueéj backed by Wal] street that the payment of the Federal debt will fal¥ on workers and property owne:is. This can never bé; so far as property owners = are conﬁemed. and will never come to pass for workers unless the Republican program for excise and sales taxes should come inLt’o effect. Not one cent that . the ‘worker and property owner pays at ‘the court house in taxes goes to the Federal Government. Only 15 cents {ot their local tax rate goes to State government. Two thirds of that is for: colleges, sate institutions and purposes other than administration of State Government. .

Dual-Lane HighwayYs Favored

Hoosier motorists and newspapers have given their approval to plans of the State Highway Commission for the conmstruction of dual or di-vided-lane highways at points where heavy traffic increases the safety hazards it wag reported by James D. Adams chairman of the commission.

Construction of the first dual high way on Indiana’s state highway system was begun several months ago in Lake county, where two traffic lanes separated by g wide parkway, will carry the heavy traffic on U. 8. 30 in and out of the Chicago area. The grading and structures on this project are being completed this year with the paving included in the 1937 program.

The dual lane highwayy providing a separate pavement for streamg of traffic moving in opposite directions is considered the best guarantee of highway safety that can be provided through construction. It eliminates the head-on collision and the sideswipe accident, both of which have resulted in many fatalities on the state highways.. - By planning construction of dual lane highways on routes where traffic is heaviest and where it is likely to increase materially within the next few years, the State Highway Coccission is attempting to anticipate Indiana’s highway needs.

It is very helpful and also enjoyable to hear them ask and answer each other's uestion. The text book includes a type of phoenetic spelling and also Interesting stories about the French life, land and cus--toms.

The followlng article was written Lty Tugene Byer, a member of the Vocational Agriculture class: “Harness Life Can Be Doubled or Trebled by Cleaning and Repairing.” Discriminative buying, prompt repair, and proper care of leather harness pays big dividends. When the wsual llfe of & ha'mess is doubled the cost is cut in haif. Jom2 “anafarmers get excei.c-t servic. from their harness for 26 years or longer; uufortunately many others are unable to use theirs longer than from two to five yeuw:s. Tne life of a harness depends to a great exwent upon fits quality and worimancship, and the care that it recelves. ‘Harness too heavy for the work is more economical than harness that is too light. The quality of the workmanship should also recelve consideration. .

Neglect of ,harness s costly. Ereaks ang rips should be promptly and properly repaired. Clean the harness with tepid water and neutral soap, such as casule or white toilet soap using a sponge or fairly stitf biush. Scrape off (oreign matter with a dull knife. Rinse in clean, tepid water, and hang the harness in a warm room until it is no longer wet, but is still damp. Then oil the harness and leaveit In a warm place for 24 hours before asing it. Harness should be olled or greased while s‘ill damp; otherwise It mgy absorb so much 01l tha it will pull out oJ shape or tlake vp sand and grit, thereby Injuring the leather as well as spolling its uppCarance.

For heavy harness a mixture of tallow and neats-foot oil with wool grease, in a paste of about the consistency of butter is beneficlal. Appiy :ne grease liberully. Rub the 01l or gr ~¢. «ara £3 20 bs ' thor. oughhly into the leather whie it is still damp from the washing. After the harpess has hupg In a warm place. over night remove with a clean, dry <loth any oil that the leatizer has not abuorbed.

Tuesday evening the Ralders and Comets fought it out to a tie score on & wet gnd muddy fleld.

The sky bad become very dark and raln began to fall However the first of the Afth was played with Kendallville getting two more runs, due to the slippery ball and muddy fleld When the Ralders came to bat In the last balf of the fifth, Drain scored on a long fly to left and VanAman grounded out. The officials decided at this point to call the game and revert back to the score at the close of the fourth fnning. This game will be played over at & later date. Ligonier must win this game and also ftrom LaOtta tomorrow evening in order to tie for first place.
