There is no need of a "keynote" speech by Mr. Lodge or anybody else. The keynote has been .struck, and by whom inure appropriately than that statesman f unselfish ideaJs and lofty vision. Mr. Will Hays, the chairman of the tional committee? "We are more interested in stomachs of our people than hearts of the world." Here is a kciti of purest native the ray serene. Here, indeed, is the beautiful adventure, the very spirit of noribs.No utilise, a plaiform and a keynote speech in one in perfect consonance with Mr. Iodge's utterances. Send it ringing round the world, the message of the republican party to all tho suffering people thereof! Let them know just what kind of a party it is that is trying to "Amej kani.o" the treaty and kill the league of Nations. nipare it witVi th messages of Wodrow Wilson ttnd judge it out of its own mouth. It is not often a party is so fortunate as to have a genius capable of crystallizing its whole attitude in one luminous epigram so early m tho campaign. Print it everyday in large typo at the top of your paper till the people have burned it by heart. It is, indeed, the keynote, and should alto he the final note in the death-knell of a party that dared so to affront a world. Kultur at the apex of its' madness never dreamed of so insulting mankind. This naive eelf-revelation of th" inner workings of his mind places us all under an obligation to Mr. Hays. It is completely in accord with Mr. IxnlgeVs "They will take us at our own terms," and Richard Croker's famous "I work for my own pocket all the time." It sounds' so much like Abraham Lincoln and reminds one of that line in a deluded soldier's poem. "To you with failing hands we throw the torch be vours to bear it high." In the language of the gutter with which he would seem to have yo much in common. Mr. Hays has inded "said a mouthful." I'll ANK I. SWANKY. Mom: pay roit postmhv. Suth Ticnd. May 31.

Reckless European Drivers in Big Indianapolis Race

Andre Iiolllot. ."Cond star member of the Peugeot triumvirate that vill endeavor to hoist th" tricolor above the Hags of competing nations during the eighth international ."00-mil sweepstakes on the Indianapolis speedway, Monday. May 31, is rated as Europe's most reckless pilot, looming up as a worthy successor to the laurels that crowned the brow of his famous brother, fleorges. conceded to be the greatest driver who ever held a steering whrel. In th" last Targo Florin of Sicily h" gave the most sensational exhibition of driving in history, accepting every risk and registering miraculous escapes no less than six time.-. His final feat of daredeviltry consisted of colliding With th" grandstands to avoid hitting a spectator who had wandered on th" course, and then, finding himself completely turned around, throwing on the power and cutting the finish line in reverse. During the world war Boillot was a French ace, and the utter disregard for safety that he .'icuuired during his numerous air combats seeni to have persisted with'V him into his racing career. P.oillofs American rieing debut was made, during the Indianapolis contest of 11 10. However, he met with disappointment on this occasion, being turned back when running in third position within 20 miles of the finish, due to th" collapse of n treacherous wire wheel.

To the Many Friends We Made During Our

ISCOllt

It was a common thing during our 1 1 day 20 Discount Sale, which closed last Saturday, to hear people express 3urprisc at the low figures everywhere evident on the VERNON price tags. To you who are not already familiar with our policy, let us call attention to the co-operative plan under which we are operating. We are depending on "turnover" a big volume of business for our profit. We must get that volume to exist. We must make attractive prices to get that volume. We're doing both. Our 1 1 day salc which was the most sensational ever held in South Bend made hundreds of new friends for this store. That means a still further reduction in prices. Right today you can save from $5 to $20 on a suit of clothes at VERNON'S. Another thing we take this occasion to thank the people of northern Indiana for their wonderful co-operation during our mammoth sale. And we want to assure you that we will continue this fight against high clothes costs. Join the volunteer army and save while you fight!
