The Blue Sky Law Although the blue sky law enacted by the special legislature provides restrictions concerning the sale of securities in Indiana, this will not guarantee to the purchaser that the stocks will pay dividends. Concerns dealing in securities must comply with the law before they operate in Indiana. Compliance with the law, however, does not include a guarantee from the state that the security will produce returns. The, public may have concluded that the presence of this law on the books would prevent the sale of worthless securities. Shrewd promoters of stock selling ventures may be able to circumvent the statute in many ways. Persons who are on the "sucker lists" may receiye literature through the mails that will induce them to part with their money. State control will undoubtedly check many dishonest endeavors of shrewd men to exchange stock certificates for Liberty bonds or money, but overtures to fleece individuals with "get rich quick" schemes will not be eliminated. It is easy to arouse the cupidity of some persons with tales of doubling your money. The blue sky salesman will not quit cold because a law throws' obstacles in his way. He will tax his ingenuity to devise means to get the money despite the law that tries to protect the ignorant investor. If you are in doubt about a promotion scheme, consult a banker. Don't believe that the blue sky law has frightened every worthless stock ealesman out of Indiana. He is with us and cannot be expelled until we have forsaken entirely our belief in being able to get something for nothing.

The Air Route to Alaska and Asia The four United States army airplanes that are on their way to Alaska to establish an air route to the, northwest corner of the continent are not doing stunts or making the distance for the publicity attached thereto.

army to send the airplanes on their long flight to Nome and return. The officers in command of the aerial expedition are to map out a route that could be used, if occasion demanded it, for the movement of army air service units to Asia. A scientific purpose also will be served by the flight. Regions of Alaska, hitherto inacessible to the map maker, will be charted and data collected for the topographer and student of weather conditions. There is a vast difference between an expedition bent on obtaining scientific data for practical purposes and flights, involving hardship and death, that are undertaken for the sole purpose of entertaining blase crowds desirous of receiving a thrill.

the machines. Foolhardy exhibitions by stunt flyers will not help the flying industry. The development of flying as industry engaged in the transportation of passengers and freight will follow careful study of problems of mechanical construction and air navigation. The stunt flyer does not help in this development. The potential value of aviation as an industry

is well recognized. The extension of the air mail service, the limited transportation of commodities by air routes, and the use of flying machines to make quick trips show that the industry is on the threshold of a marvelous development.

If the expedition into Alaska obtains the data j Hi

sought for, it is not at all improbable that gold and furs, whose bulk is small in comparison with their intrinsic value, may be brought from the

outposts of civilization to industrial centers i gl

within a short time. Many sections of the United States, rich in Ijj resources and potential wealth, remain undevel- j lp oped because transportation facilities are barred j by the natural barriers of mountains and des-jlp erts or by climatic conditions that permit access j jf only during a few weeks. The airplane would j jl overcome these handicaps and be the means of )

increasing the national wealth by many thousands of dollars.

Perhaps you ve heard your grandmother relate the early experiences she had while shopping at Knollenc??m C' WaS baCk in thSe dayS riht after the Civil war that Knollenberg's store was established at 817 Main street, the same location we occupy today. The store, of course, is much larger now; it takes in just one acre of floor space, but right on this same spot more than half a hundred years ago Knollenberg's More began building a reputation for values. Friday and Saturday you will see the evidence of what we mean to convey when we speak of extraordinary values.

Today's Talk By George Matthew Adams

THE RIGHT THING The right thing is what you feel is right not necessarily what you are told is right. The free man is he who has learned to look a fact or circumstance squarely in the face, and then to make his own opinion. This opinion may be in direct opposition to what a thousand about him Bay is right but if he honestly feels that his own decision hitches with his conscience and his heart, then to him the Tightest thing in the world is for him to stick to his belief. There is a difference, however, if this opinion effects the happiness of others. TW?n it is that "the larger good" opens its door. And a man should not hesitate at such a time or place. But in matters of personal rulership, the right thing is that which is born in a man's own consciousness not in the feeling of some contemporary, or associate, or sponsor. The right thing to you is a most precious inheritance. Let no man rob you of It! For it cannot be learned it has to be felt, rising naturally out of your heart as does Iho spring from the deep nest of the rocky mountain. "To thine own self be true" and what tin; author of this famous saying meant, was that a man should not borrow what he already had, but that he should defend his own better self as he would the body of one dearly loved. Stick to the thing you believe to be right. And don't wabble or mind the babble of voices that so often gather in your front yard, seeking to draw you from the place in which you live that thev may themselves take possession of the kingdom of your soul. The right thing is the best thing for you!

A LITTLE SLICE O' LIFE We had often marveled At the greatness of Lincoln, But not unjil recently Had we heard it analyzed. A small child of our neighbor Was being told what a great man Abraham Lincoln was. "Gee," he eaid. "It's no wonder. Look what he had to make him great: He had that log cabin, He bad that pine knot, He had those rails to split; He had that tall plug hat, He had all those stories, He had that Douglas debate, He had that civil war to win, He had that Gettysburg speech, He had everything To make a man great. And look what I have got Not a darn one of those things." A prominent porcelain bath tub manufacturing house advertises as follows: "Don't wait until Saturday night." There are apparently some newthoughtist3 in the bath tub business. It is a new idea they have evolved, but it may be worth trying. HELP! THEY'RE BRIEF ENOUGH NOW. Sign in a store window: "One-Piece Bathing Suits Cut in Half." "WAITER! TWO EGGS. ONE OF THEM MUST BE FRESH." Sign on the menu of a restauraat: "All our eggs are not over two days old." Lester Lamb.

Dinner Stories

To a boy whose face plainly indicated mental distress, a kind old lady said: "What is the mntter?' "Pa fell down stairs," replied the b"Well, don't cry. He'll be all right scon, no doubt." "Yes, I know," said the boy. "But me sister seen him fall all the way, an' I never seen nuthin'." Susie had for a long time been praving for a baby sister. The other day, on laying down the local paper, her mother said: "Our new pastor's wife has a little daughter." "How do you know?" asked Susie. "It's here in the paper," her mother replied. "Please read it to me," said the child, and her mother read: "Born, on July 15. to the Rev. and Mrs. John Smith, a daughter." Susie thought for a moment. Then she said: "Mama, I know what I'm golngtfo do. I'm going to stop praying and begin advertising." My dear, as you have been fairly prosperous this year, I think you
