Editor and Publisher Office Phone 4 — Home Phone 904 THURSDAY, MAY 31, 1934 MAIN STREET WHITTLINGS By marking the street, the state highway department has again settled the question for the town board as to which way the cars are to park on Main street. A prominent farmer of this township, when asked about the wheat, <iorn and hog production control, said that he believed that the only way that prosperity would return to the farmer, was through control of production and that he hoped that the government would pass a ' law making control compulsory. Upon further questioning, he said that hi was not only a hope, but that he thought compulsory regulation of every farm in the country was not far off. Mussolini on the other hand recently said that people's hope of the return of prosperity was futile. He said that war was the only way by which prosperity could return. He evidently does not believe in universal conscription of everything in time of war; men, wealth, factories, farms and business. Much confusion has developed in the community because of the adoption of Daylight Savings time. This* confusion could be abated if personalities could be» forgotten, and if the suggestions of some farmers would be adopted, that stores keep open two or three nights a week. With, the stores open evenings, farm era any they can come to town after chores are finished, and the town could use any kind of time. [ What has happened to the predictions that the state Democratic party would be split by serious factional diflfii ulties when it held its convention in Indianapolis, and that the Republican camp would be serene? The Democrats must have shed their difficulties and given them to Line Republicans, for the fight which started between Senator Robinsorii and the state Republican committee is reaching serious proportions. Senator Robinson has accused the date committee of being in league with McNutt, Pleas Greenlee and McHale, and the state committee in retaliation is trying to arouse sentiment against Robinson's renomination, as candidate for Senator. The committee is suggesting Fred Landis as the Republican oppomnt. That* politics. MrNutt is now placed in a position stronger than before the primaries in spite of Republican predictions to the contrary, and the Republicans are getting into a scrap where tactics which would shame a gangster will be employed.

The hotbed, in many respects, is like an incubator and should have constant care or something may go wrong. After the seeds have been planted, water thoroughly and fit the sash lightly. In a few days the young plants will show through the soil and it is then important that the temperature be watched carefully. On bright days lift one end of the sash to permit the bed to cool off or hold a normal temperature. During the afterntx>n close the sash in order that the plants may have the warmth necessary during the night. It is advisable to-have some extra covering for the bed in case of bad weather and low temperature. After the plants are well established, more ventilation should be given each day and they should b» watered well at the first appearance of drying out. As the time approaches for transplanting, the sash should be left off day and night and very little water applied. This hardens off the plants and puts them in the proper condition for transplanting to the field. Since it requires from 30 to 40 days for most plants to be at the proper stage for transplanting the hotbeds may be started and so timed jrfsat the plants will be ready st time. Cold frames should handled in the same manner. . ——.— An increase in marriage is reported from Crown Point, Indiana’s Gretna Green, which is hailed as a sign of growing economic recovery. But one of our married friends says it is a sign of growing economic insanity. / 0 If the really wants to do something for the farmers they might make some srrangements whereby it is as easy to get out of debt as it is to get out of the peni-

Declares the Atom Still Bundle of Uncertainties What does an atom look like? Thirty years ago, says New York Times, it was supposed to be a miniature solar system—a nucleus of mixed electrons and protons (hydrogen hearts) around which other electrons revolved! Such a structure could be drawn on paper and imagined. But Prof. Niels Bohr shattered it and won the Nobel prize in consequence He showed that the electrons, instead of revolving around the nucleus in an orderly planetary way that could be predicted, actually Jumped in a very unplanetary way from one orbit to another. In the process they emitted light, heat, electric waves and perhaps other forms of energy. From that day cause and effect disappeared, for there was no way of predicting what an electron was doing from one moment to another. It out that the orbits were only average positions. What an atom is only the mathematicians .can tell us. and their equations' deal only with leaping electrons. In the California Institute of Technology Professor Bohr advised his hearers to forget about atomic models. All that we can do Is to discuss masses and changes, and these cannot be pictured on paper. Models imply certainty. The atom is a bundle of uncertainties. The advice Is not comforting but sound. It is better to have no picture than one which is totally wrong. Psalm Boole Was First Published in America The first book published in America was a psalm bonk, published at Cambridge. Mass., in 1640, twenty years after the landing at Plymouth Rock. This was the first book published In what was sometimes called English America, in contradistinction from the Spanish possessions. It was known as the Bay Psalm Book, being intended for use in what was then called the colony of Massachusetts bay. and it was printed by a pious Puritan of this period, named Stephen Dane. A small printing press ? and a font of blackfaced type were brought over from England. and the versified psalms were printed as then sung iii England, in the quaint spelling and phraseology of the period. The edition consisted of 1.700 copies, and served to supply the colonies for quite a long time. In 1903 ten copies were known to be extant, and as they were in libraries or the hands of book collectors who knew thbir value, they probably still are tn existence. Firefly I* Efficient The firefly is many times more efficient as a manufacturer of light than the most modern of human installations, according to a professor who lectured on “Infra-Red and Wireless Waves,*' at the Royal institution, says the Montreal Herald. “Even in the very best lamps.” said the professor, “only Shout 10 per cent of the radiation Is visible to the human eye; the remainder is wasted as infra-red or heat radiations. An economy fortune awaits the man who will discover how to make ‘cold’ light on an Industrial scale. So far the most efficient makers of the light are the luminous Insects and bacteria, which know how to carry on chemical reactions to produce cold light- Experiments show, for example, that the firefly produces light which is all within the range of human visibility.” According to a recent scientific view, the size of the universe is six billion light years and it is composed of five hundred trillion nebula, which makes it sound like the public debt.

RELIGIOUS LIFE OF RUTHERFORD B. HAYES One of the most consistent Christians ever to occupy the White House was President Rutherford B. Hayes, according to Dr. William Judson Hampton., who writes on the religious life df our nineteenth President in the current issue of the National Republic. The ~ religious atmosphere was ever present in the homo life of Mr. and Mrs. Hayes, according to Dr. Hampton, who says in pfexL “The home life of Mr. Hayes was decidedly Christian. He was a subscriber to the religious press. He mentions several religious periodicals in his ‘Diary* that were welcome visitors to his home. He gives a brief ! outline of the day’s work during the second year of jhis presidency: ‘I rise at 7:00 A. M. and write until breakfast, 8:30. After breakfast, prayer, i. e., reading a chapter of the Biole, each one pi esent reading a verse in turn, and all Kneeling, repeat the Lora’s Prayer. Then, usually write and arrange business until 10:00 A. M. From 10:00 to 12:00 in the Cabinet room, the members of Congress having preference, except Cauinet members * ♦ *. ’ The day s work was bethe thought bi God in the mind of ail. Retiring from the Presidency to his home at Bpiegel Grove, he luts the curtain to a beautiful home scene. ‘A lively musical circle, sing hymns in the old way. “'lhe Ola, Old Story” rings gloriously in our whispering gallery of a house.’ What a jar to the sensitive nerves of 1 that cultured gircle if there had been introduced sofiie of the jazz music that comes over the radio on Sunday nights from some stations! “The clergy had a warm place in ; his heart. During his third year in the White House he records a Thanks . giving Day visit to the home ol ’ Bishop Simpson, in ( Philadelpnia. His : wife and daughter had preceded him. .He describes the bishop’s home: ‘A happy home, a cheerlul, happy family; a family of good works and most loveable character. Mrs. Simpson is : a warm-hearted and motherly woman ■ full of good works. The bishop’s eloquence and success are due to a lender, sincere natuie great modes--y, good culture and sound common sense. These high qualities, added to unshaken faith in Christianity, make him a man of great power in the pulpit and in private life.’ An- > other warm personal friend was ; Bishop McCabe, and Bishop Bowman !is included in the triumvirate. The ■ latter was his guest at Spiegel Grove 'during an annual Conference session. ; Some months after the death of Mrs. I Hayes, Mr. Tayes came across a i letter he had received from Bishop

Bowman accepting hi* invitation to be hi* guest during the Conference session. Ha quotes from the Bishop’s letter in his ‘Diary,’ Mr. Hayes writing in italics, the last six words of lhe Bishop's letter; 'My precious wife is in Heaven, s' Why did Mr. Hayes do that, unless at that moment he associated Heaven with his beloved Lucy? “A striking incident is recorded in his ‘Diary’ when the church was wth a split. It illustrates > a strong loyalty to his pastor. We quote: ‘A cruel injustice has been done to a pure and goqd man, an excellent preacher, and a true aid devoted Christian. Idle gossip about I imprudent but not in the least licen- ! tious cnoduct with women is the pretext. This leaves the church we have attended, and to which Mrs. Hayes | belongs, divided and unharmonious. ' This Lack of unity and concord will continue until repentance and reparation do their work in behalf of our injured pastor,. or until and changes in the leading influences of the church restore harmonyfl. ” !
