JK. Editor and Publisher Office Phone 4 — Home Phone 9H THURSDAY, MARCH 14, 1935 New Castle, Ind., reports a muskrat which bit a man. Here the muskrats are more discriminating. Everyone in Syracuse and vicinity is hoping that Mentone goes places in the state tournament. Last week a United States marshal moved to take possession and destroy the plant of the Clyde Products Co., in Syracuse, N. Y., a supposed vinegar plant, which a federal raid revealed to be a plant manufacturing alcohol illictly. The Reconstruction Finance Corporation loaned $25,000 to the company last faH. Only the U. S. Government acting through the R. C. F. could do such a silly thing as lend money to the company and then move in on the security and destroy it, thus destroying the only chance of securing its money. Os course the U. S. has lota of money, what does a few paltry thousands matter with that 34 billion dollar debt hanging over our heads? All of those in the CCC corps are hoping that the 4 billion 800 million bill passes Congress. Which desire is perfectly natural, for the President has said that 600 million dollars would be spotted to the CCC besides 350 million for soil erosion, flood control and ref or estr at ion. The radio name calling of General Johnson, Huey Long and Father Coughlin, this past week, is like “personal Journalism," when newspaper editors called each other names, when the newspaper industry was in its infancy. In his talk Monday night, Father Coughlin enumerated all the valuable things he has done, and related how Johnson had persecuted him, thus making himself a martyr. But why should the priest sob about it? Much honor and distinction have always been given to martyrs, . if not on earth, surely in heaven. In his talk, Huey Long also became Bibical. He said that General Johnson has declared, a Holy War against him, thus making Long a martyr. Why all this sudden desire, to be pitied to be martyrs? Is it something the best dressed man must wear this Easter? —O' HALLECK URGES SALARY GRANT FOR MRS. LANDIS WASHINGTON. D. C.-Repre-sentative Charles A. Halleck, Second Indiana district, appeared before a subcommittee of the House appropriations committee to urge that a year's salary be voted to the widow of Frederick Landis, Logansport. Landis was elected to Congress last November, but died nine days later. It is customary to vote a year's salary to the widow of a member of Congress who dies in office. However, there is no precedent for allowing payment of a salary for the widow of a member who dies before he has taken the oath of office and before the date his term would begin. Halleck's proposal was made voluntarily and without any suggestion from the Landis family. What action the committee will take was not indicated. » o B. & O. CARS RE-ROUTED BECAUSE OF WRECK Two ears were derailed on the B. & 0., near Gravelton, early Saturday morning, causing a disruption in the service of the train schedules. Trains were switched through Warsaw to the Nickle Plate at Claypool. The cars derailed were thrown to opposite sides of the right-of-way. No one was injured in the accident, and tracks were cleared and regular service continued by noon. 0 GETS JAIL SENTENCE. Guy Hickman entered a plea of guilty in Elkhart circuit court at Goshen before Judge Aldo J. Simpson, to a petit larceny charge and was sentenced to the state prison for a term of from one to five years.

A sluggish system cannot be restored to normal action by constant purging. Now, it is no longer necessary to resort to such dangerous expedients. After months of experimenting, a fa- / mous food laboratory, in cooperation with a local baker, has perfected a most delightful bread which contains two of Nature’s finest laxative foods; flaked wheat and the concentrated juice of select sun-ripened prunes. Named after its two principal ingredients, PRUN-O-WHEAT BREADprovides an abundance of nourishment and at the same time gently and naturally stimulates the intestinal tract to normal activity. PRUN-O-WHEAT BREAD is a natural laxative food that will be welcomed by thousands. Its matchless flavor will make it a favorite on any table. Its mild, but certain laxative properties will correct all but the most obstinate cases of constipation, with their attendant evils.

Here is a bread the whole family will enjoy for its rich and appetising flavor. PRUN-O-WHEAT toast makes a wonderful addition to the breakfast menu. The younger members of the family will hail it with delight. Sandwiches made with PRUN-O-WHEAT BREAD have a novel charm, especially when a sweet or semi -sweet filling is used.
