Senator Charles- GurMa -concluded his speech at the Seventh District Republican Rally last Friday, near Clifton, -with the prediction that Gov. Alfred E, Smith would Be defeated for the presidency. The rally was held under a large tent seating three thpusand people and probably one thousand were un- able to be seated though they could hear due to an amplifier that had heen brought along by the delegation from / Columbus that accompanied the Sena­ tor. In -the delegation wetfe Senator S, D. Fess, Col, Thad Brown, of? the State Committee .representing the National division, Harry" Silver, State Chairman, Myers •Y, Cooper, candi­ date for governor, Charles Darlington and H. Creswell of the Veteran’s department, with newspapermen >and Columbus' friends. A special train brought the party here and following the speaking returned to Columbus. Sherman Deaton opened the meet­ ing and introduced Congressman Charles Brand as chairman of the meeting. The opening prayer was delivered by Dr, W. R. MeChesney, Senator Fess introduced Senator Cur­ tis. Music was furnished by the "Ur­ bane Glee Club, the Blanehester hand and the Cooper Drum Corps. Lunch was served on the grounds by the Ladies of the Clifton Presbyterian '■church. ; • “We promise to put agriculture on an equal basis with other industries in the United States,” Senator Cur­ tis said in- discussing the farm relief problem. In discrediting the Democratic at­ titude on the tariff situation, Curtis declared, “ Not one farmer has ever „ benefitted by" competitive tariff. We Republicans believe in a protective tariff which gives American producers protection over foreign producers. The woll we use in this country should he produced from the backs of American sheep.” . - •"Senator Curtis quoted Gov. Smith as saying that he (Smith) knew .that wheat had often been- over-produced but that excess crops could be con- ' t$a|ed tjtaoqgk the, banks.. Further saving that, Smith said when the farmers get down off the mountain, top and paid more attention to ec- r onomocs, they could help themselves, “ Smith committed himself to the Underwood bill in his acceptance speech, but'since that time has dis­ claimed himself,” Curtis stated. - - Senator Curtis, in answering n charge made ^by Smith in his Omaha speech in, Wlnbh he accused,the Re­ publican party of violating the ag­ riculture problem to American farm­ ers, had deceive'd them,, and had done nothing to relieve the distress or", pro­ mote welfare for the farmers during seven and one-half years of promise and no performance, said, “ In 1318 the farmers asked for an emergency tariff. A Republican house introduced and passed iuch an emergency tariff but President WilsOn vetoed it. Later, thousands of, farmers filed applica­ tions for loans "ott their farms which was refused because the Farm Loan Board had no money. “ The fanners had used their money to buy Liberty bonds but the farm board could not sell the bonds at par, - The board then asked congress and the president, to buy $60,000,000 worth of their bonds which they did. Before closing, Senator Curtis de­ scribed Herbert Hoover as, “A man Whose heart beats for children and women; a map. who gave relief to re­ store the devastated nations of Eur­ ope; a man Who volunteered to turn his office over to subordinates to bring relief when the Mississippi Flood wrought havoc, and a man who knows Wore, about the conditions o f the world than any other man in the country.” - Myers Y. Cooper, candidate for governor, was next intro ’ ucetl, He opened his speech by predicting the election of Hoover for president and Senator Fess for re-election* CARD OF THANKS! 1 We desire to express our sincere thanks to neighbors and friends also Golden Rule Circle and Ladies' Aid for the beautiful floral tributes to our Mother, Mrs, James E.

Hallowe’en Party- For College; Students This year it was the (turn of the col­ lege girls to give the anual Hallowe’en party in the gym with the boys as the guests of the evening. -The event took place Tuesday evening and proved a very" enjoyable affair. ^ Being Hallowe’en the hoys could not overlook the fact .that some un­ usual stunt should be staged so a cow was imported from a nearby lot and given a prominent place in the building. When the >girls gathered about six-thirty to .prepare to receive their guests they found “Bosse” busi­ ly engaged in eating part o f the de­ corations, which happened to be fooder. The question arose as to who were the guilty ones, but the boys are not saying anything.: Br. Galloway Guest Of Local Grange Dr. W; A.

Ilaboush spent his Boyhood in Pales­ tine as a shepherd. - The story con­ cerns the' shepherd life o f that coun­ try and along with;that he tells "of the customs in connection with the Twenty-Third Psalm. The sheep of that country do not-know, their shep­ herd by his appearance but by the call he gives. Each sheep has a name. An incidence in the story- was: of the losing of a sh^ep and how the shepherd was mad^ to go out and search until he found it.

But insistent demands for changes ity. Surely we may seb the big green' headed Mallards and their somber relatives, the Black Ducks. The two Bpecies of Scaup Docks (Bluebllls), quite alike except for size, are likely to be found in numbers. The Pintail and the Ruddy Duck and two striking, black-white species, the Golden-eye and the Buffje-hesd are among our most constant visitors. Where bodies of water offer suitable and fairly safe resting places, these and as many other less common species may be seen, Hunters’ guns have already made them shy and a field' glass will be required for the long range identi­ fication which ’will he found neces­ sary* ■ Our marshes now seem quite desert­ ed. Bitterns and Rails are gone; only an occasional Coot swims in a lagoon o f open water.

Bluebirds, which were numbered among our first arrivals last spring now desert us, and with them &o the Robins, except for a few of the more hardy individuals which remain to test their endurance against oUr ice and snow. In truth; winter must he just around the corner when these well-known friends bid us goodbye. Before We tear November’s page from our calendar of birds, it might not be amiss to say a Word concern ing a new comer among our birds— the European Starling. A reader has called our attention to the omission of this species from oUr lists. Its ever-growing numbers will at too soon make It a factor to be reckoned with. Flocks of hundreds now winter at a great many places in central Ohio and it probably nested in most of the coun­ ties of the state during the past sum­ mer. The ill-advised introduction of this bird Into North America )s most unfortunate, since it can contribute nothing of song, beauty or value by its presence here.
