WHITE ELEPHANT I N FENNEY’S BASEMENT 44 Thursday, Friday, Saturday FOLKS, WE’RE NOT POLITICALLY MINDED. But we really have some White Elephants we want to practically give away. We are tired of seeing them in our stock. So we’ve taken them all to our basement where they will go on sale at eight o’clock Thursday morning. No thought of original prices was considered. These goods are marked at only a fraction of their original cost. They are odds and ends which have accumulated—some are slightly soiled and shopworn, but every item is a genuine bargain. Come to Pcnney’s White Elephant show, then see the Putnam County Horse Show and Rodeo—3 Gala Days of enjoyment!

III LA DAM Tills, HAMJ! ETS MARK HAWAIIAN ELECTIONS HONOLULU, (UP)—Hawaii, for the time being, has gone completely election-conscious. While, as a territory, Hawaii is only allowed to figure in national politics to the extent of selecting a delegate to congress, there ai'2 other reasons why election time here turns the islands into a glamorous colorful and musi-
cal madness of politics
In the first place, m addition to electing the delegate to congress — the governor of the territory is appointed by the president, and the governor in turn appoints' all the department heads of the territorial government Hawaii also elects its own senators and legislators to the territorial legislature, as well as
LICENSES
Cloverdale, and Hatcher, Grecn-
MARRIAGE Estel Leo Cox, Madonna Eileen
castle.
Fstei I^eon McCloud, Roachdale, and lluth 'Juanita Hubble, Roach-
dale.
Both couples were married here Tuesday morning by Robert H. Newgent, local justice of the peace. All members of the Putnam County Conservation club are urged to attend the meeting tonight at 7:30 o’cloek at the OK barber shop. Officers of the club also request that anyone finding fox hounds, lost during the hunt held here last week, to get in touch with Ernest Stoner or Maynard Johnson.
In the second, and perhaps most important Hawaii regards election time as a fine grooming period for the day to come when it hopes to be the 49th state in the union, and hence politics and election time arc being taken seriously here- in ttm
Hawaiian way.
Everyone in the electorate is set for the great musical and oratorical revue which is already under way. and will continue down until Nov. 9. The campaign is on; the Hula girls have turned politicians. The steel guitars have become statesmen, and the surf board riders are more concerned about the waves of popularity than they are about the
waves of Waikiki.
Although the campaign is purely local in character — except for the one delegate to congress political camps are as enthusiastically Democratic and Republican as if the show were taking place in one of the states. Audiences hoar as much about the advantages and disadvantages of the hew deal as if they were
listening to politic? in New Jersey. Gov. Alfred M. London is brought into discussions as frequently as if he wore campaigning for sheriff on the local island of Kauai. Intel national relations, tariff, relief and other national campaign issues cither clarify or befog the atmosphere of what is only a local campaign. In the meantime, the campaign is being carried on by distinctive local methods, in which entertainment, music and flowers play predominating roles, along with the oratory. The tree-shaded public parks of all island communities become lively areas where from temporarily erect0 I and bunting de-dccked platforms, candidates vie with each other to put on the best show. Frequently the political speech is cut into by the candidate’s special hula troupe with another song and the placing of more floral wreaths about his shoulders. All candidates recoegnac that to become successful at the polls, plenty of free music and entertainment must accompany the oratory. It is generally agreed that in a choice, oratory should be second. And it is. Any prominent business man or business executive of Honolulu who is seeking office must shake off his dignity and put on his share of the show or he will be disappointed on election day. The whine of the steel guitar at an election rally, the swish of the grass skirt and the thumping of an old time gourd is probably just as important as a prerentation of the issues at stake. Two other elements also must not he overlooked by the candidates. One is the large Panama hat with a flower or feather wreath around it. The other is the luau or native feast. Tlte hat is the official insigna that
tile wearer is a candidate for election. The expansiveness of the hat suggests that the "worlrer is beneficient, of great influence and brainy. No candidate would ever get elected with an ordinary American straw hat. The luau, or feast, combines governmental issues with food, music, flowers and entertainment. At these festive occasions, hundreds of voters and party workers assemble in various districts to pay tribute to a candidate or group of candidates. Sometimes the expense of the affair is paid for by the man running for office but generally they are given by party workers and friends. Often the latter are more interested in having a good time than in the issues at stake. At these affairs, it is not unusual that the candidate himself no matter what his usual decorum—joins the dancers in a hula. Finally, election day itself in Honolulu, takes on the appearance of a carnival. Automobiles with banners extolling the virtues of some particular candidate, and containing Hawaiian singers, are driven past the city's polling booths in a last minute drive to stampede the voters. Some candidates place their musical groups on decorated trucks and cars similar to parade floats. For these groups not a little undercover work takes place by workers to obtain the services of the sweetest voiced singers whose dulcet notes at the last moment might turn a dry conservative into a wet communist. But with all the fun making and south sea glamour, Hawaii takes its elections seriously. The last election figures show that out of 71.168 registered voters, a total of 62,427 voted. Then, after election, Hawaii takes up the serious business of running an American territory which last year paid more than $70,000,000 internal revenue into the United States
treasury. But while the election is on, its fun—and it’s on now.

COKE PLANT YIELDS NEW MEDICAL
AID
PITTSBURGH, (UP) — Many medicinal by-products, such as pyradine, quinoline and their homologs, are obtained from high temperature coke plants, P. J. Wilson, Jr., and J. H. Wells, industrial fellows in the Mellon Institute of Industrial Research, said in papers road before the American Chemical Society recently. Pyradine, the paper said, had Keen used medically as a respiratory sedative, and as an antisceptic in a number of diseases, including asthma, angina pectoris, wRooping cough and diphtheria. B-lutidine, a homolog of pyradine, has been applied ns an antidote for poisoning by strychnine and in tetanie convulsions. In systematic investigations of syphilis of the brain of mice, some of the pyradine arsenic derivatives have successfully destroyed the spirochaetes, the paper said. Valuable research is being continued in the derivatives because of their many medicinal uses. Coal tar, which contains less than 0.5 per cent f the pyradine bases boiling to 280 degrees Centigrade, is one of the principal sources of these compounds.
