FRIDAY, JANUARY 30, 19S1 N IAG AR A FALLS TAKES A “ FALL” Those who have ever visited Niagara Falls have been inter­ ested in the report of a large part of- the cliff on the American side breaking off some days ago and dropping into the river. The break covered about 150 feet of the cliff with a depth of 25 feet over what was known as “ Bridal Veil” , the spot where every bride and groom that visited the falls wanted to stand for a picture. This section of the overhanging cliff has been one o f the wonder sights that it could withstand the millions of tons o f water that has passed over it in years gone by. While part o f the cliff is gone there yet remains a good portion o f the cliff to give sight seers a thrill when they pass under the falls. Geologists state that it will take 20,000 years for the water to wear, away enough of the cliff to claim as much as fell just recently. If the figures are correct many a genera­ tion is assured pf the opportunity of passing under the falls as have millions of persons in the past one hundred and fifty years, CHARLEY IGNORES NEW COMMITTEE In the pre-primary campaign Congressman Charley Brand had the support of the Pemberton-Daughterty politicians. Clin­ ton county had just experienced a $136,000 graft scandal with a county auditor in the penitentiary and indictments against others in connection with questionable methods of spending the county funds. In thd primary election Clinton county failed to give the Urbana statesman his usual vote, in fact it went to his opponentrJudge Gram—Clinton county also discharged the Pemberton Republican committee and chose another that the party, could be purged of some of the stigma the gang politi­ cians had inflicted on a helpless people. . It has now developed that Charley still lines up with the old gang followers on endorsements and is refusing to recog­ nise the new committee. Clinton county will no doubt give the Seventh District “farm relief” congressman another dressing should his name be up for consideration at future elections. Pemberton is a former lobbyist for Cincinnati liquor inter­ ests and Daugherty is fighting to keep out of the penitentiary following his bank failure. As Charley has marched over the district time after time holding a lilly in one hand and a white ribbon in the other, preaching gravel roads, farm relief and other ‘‘isms” , his decision tp turn down the new element in the Republican party in Clinton county and stand by Pemberton, gives the public the inside of Brand’s political connection. « H OW TO FINANCE RELIEF A PROBLEM The problem of finance for present day relief due to unem­ ployment and the drouthf over the country is attracting legisla­ tors in Washington as well as states where legislatures are in session. City and village councils have been handicapped by legislation passed in the hay-day of wild spending. While national and state legislatures are divided as to the best remedy for relief it appears to us that the proposition for issuing bonds beyond present tax limitations is the best solution. In this manner every citizen will directly or indirectly pay the bill. Under the optional system of receiving contributions, whether voluntary or upon solicitation, a limited class must foot the expense. In Ohio municipal government has its hands tied by wha\ is known as the Vorey’s budget law, Few towns or cities an­ ticipated such a situation as we have and as a result there is only a limited, amount o f public funds available. The unfor­ tunate feature o f the Vorey’s law is that it ties the hands ol municipalities that for years past have lived within their income because a few cities continued to pile up a public debt. Give the municipalities liberty to function by issuing a reasonable amount in bonds and the problem of financing the relief call can be settled. Any town or city that continues to elect officials that cannot be trusted or are unfaithful to the best interests of all, deserves the right to pav the bill, be it large or small. Officials that have the right .and of interest in their town or city can be. trusted to do the right thing. LAY ING THE BLAME FOR MOTOR ACCIDENTS A prominent farmer stopped us on the street in Xenia sev eral days ago to congratulate our stand against the proposed -automobile-driver-s-licenseJaw.—He-was-much~vexed that his school children would be denied a license while every other class of citizenship, law abiding and bank bandits would be legalized by paying the fifty cent fee. Our friend went so far as to say that if investigation, was made more than ninety per cent of the accidents were caused by city drivers. More acci­ dents and more lives are taken in the cities by motor cars than iTrthexountry. "He caHed-attention' that-Gincinnati and Uolum bus each have had twelve fatalities since the first of the year He directed attention to the death of Horace Ankeney, as being responsible for carelessness of a truck and motor, car driver from different cities. And yet his children, two of whom have driven cars for more than a year, could not get a license to drive to school, if the proposed bill is passed. We have' repeatedly stated that we are not opposed to a motor car driver’s license law so long as it has reasonable pro­ visions. We have objected to the proposed set up of a few hundred jobs for politicians at the expense of motor car owners. If the framers o f the bill and Automobile Clubs will agree to have this fee go to the state and townships and..municipalities xon a fifty fifty basis, we are for the bill. If such is not the case we are opposed to it, The position Gov. White has taken vir­ tually means death to the proposed bill* The farm organiza­ tions are opposed to it and a striking thing is that so many mem­ bers of the Automobile Clubs are opposing it since its provisions are known. jn is tifa je ty Arthur irttb am SHU Gold to Bo Found Lady Shoots Lady Wickersham Report To Detect Falsehood There ia still gold to be found, if you know where to look. At Alamos, in the Btate o f Sonora, where Governor Elias rules, an Amer­ ican, L. S. Patterson, bought an old mine from Filipe De Iza. After six months, discouraged, he sold the mine back to De Iza. The latter went to see what work Patterson had done, tapped a rock with a small hammer, uncovering a vein o f gold new yield­ ing $2,000 a ton. But don't, let that persuade you to buy stock in a gold mine, When it runs $2,000 a ton they don't sell it. A lady-who lives in Oklahoma fired two shots into Miss Charles, Gardell, aged twenty-eight, and Miss Cardell may die. Jealousy sent the bullets on their way. Such incidents have been fre quent since the day o f 40,000,000 years ago, when Mrs. Big Tooth split the head o f a younger cave lady trying to steal away her husband. A jealous woman usually kills the other woman to saVe her husband. And that, although she doesn’t know it, is done in obedience to atavistic impulse, to protect the children, who need a fatheh The jealous husband often kills his wife. That is done to protect his im portant self-respect. It is easier-thaii killing the man, and he can get another wife without trouble. Every newspaper, congressman clergyman and at least 50,000,000 others have discussed the Wickersham prohibition report. The discussion will continue; with minority members tell­ ing what they think. The fact is that the commission recommends, by a ma jority . vote, to do nothing except to spend more money on enforcement, which, according to the commission's unanimous opinion, does not enforce. Chicago’s police have a “ lie meter,’* that, attached to the arm o f a suspec under cross-examination, tells when he id lying. It works, because the humai heart, not taught to lie, changes its heat when the anxious process of.lying begins, In India barefooted natives giving testimony lie with straight faces. But they twitch their big; toes and lawyers watch their feet. A well known capitalist twitched his thumb 'when, bluffing at poker and lost large sums until he began holding his cards with four fingers, the thumb kept hidden. Douglas Fairbanks has gone to India, taking letters from the Duke of Sutherland to the Maharajah o f My­ sore, and letters from other dukes to other maharajahs, princes and poten totes, plus a letter o f credit, which Is important.

Are we our brothers’ keepers ? Not if the brothers live 7,000 miles away. > This week motor club leaders appeared before Governor White aiid have issued a statement that if the bill is not passed they will not take it to a referendum vote. This is contrary to the first statements issued. There is no question what will happen to it in its present form if the public once gets to vote upon it, A new bill certainly can mean little in the large city counties. The laws we already have are not enforced there and the striking thing is that most motor car accidents are directly due to intoxication and the city politicians think a Cure for wreckless motor driving is in a. license law. An attempt to en­ force the prohibition’ law in the cities will aid greatly in making the roads safer for travel, ’ ' CAN BE CUBED HEMORRHOIDS <OR PILES) WITHOUT USE OF KNIFE WITHOUT LOSS OF TIME A successful treatment ^for internal and protruding piles.

To Student Rodney Roadifer, 18, Logan, Iowa, a sophomore student in Antioch Col­ lege, is thought to have committed suicide Sunday evening by asphyxia­ tion in a garage in Yellow Springs. The body was found about 9:30 that evening when Lee Shorter went to put his car in the garage. The building was full o f fumes and the young man was slumped over the front seat o f his car. According to a story told Coroner R. L. Haines by a fellow student, Roadifer, had stated seme time ago he was contemplating' suicide. The remark was considered a joke at the time. Simplifies Meals For Large Groups Specialist Suggests Wmys_ of Saving Time In Preparing Meala for Farmers* Institutes Feeding the army o f people attend' ing the Farmers’ Institutes this year may not he an altogether easy task, >ut it con' be greatly simplified so that women-as wejl as-men will enjoy-the Institute program and yet have plenty of delicious home cooked food when dinner time’ arrives, according to Miss Alma L. Garvin, extension specialist in home economics at the Ohio State University. Appetizing dinners that will make one’s mouth water in' anticipation, may be prepared with but little effort if the proper precautions are taken, she says. Where there are facilities for cooking and It Is desirable to pre­ pare the meal at the place o f meeting, a simple meal should be planned. Much time and labor may he saved, Miss Garvin points out, by using plain white paper for tablecloths, by serv ing foods o f different texture and color so as to Insure an attractive combination by avoiding' the use o f foods o f similar value such as white and sweet potatoes, by limiting the variety o f foods, and by planning every detail o f the work in advance. Lots o f time may also be saved by serving'the meals in cafeteria style. Here, she 'feels, it is a good idea to appoint committees which will have charge o f the setting out and .clearing away o f the food. Foods are best ar- anged on the serving table in groups according to kinds in the following irden meat, vegetables, salads, ’meads, desserts, beverages. The des­ sert and drinks are usually placed at me further end o f the table. . To save work, the families are often requested to bring their own silver md dishes. A fter the meal all dishes ire peeked awa yin the family basket ind taken home to be washed, Barley is not very palatable and is best fed with other grains. It con­ tains a fairly high percentage o f crude fibre and probably should not be used in the hog ration in larger amounts than 50 per cent o f the grain’fed. Like other small grains, with the exception o f corn, barley gives better results /hen crushed or ground. 63 Become Members Of Ton-Utter Club Seventy-three ton litters were pro­ duced by 63 farmers in 29 Ohio coun­ ties in 1030, announces J. W. Wuichet, swine specialist at this Ohio State Uni­ versity, who states that 54 new mem­ bers were added to the roll o f the ton- litter club during the past year. The average number o f pigB per litter was 10 , 6 , the weight o f the average pig 220.3 pounds, and the average litter reached 2221 pounds in weight in 180 days. Because ton-litter clubs have fulfill­ ed their purpose since begun in 1023 they will not be continued through 1931. A pork production project will be conducted next year, Wuichet ex­ plains. The pork production dub differs from the ton-litter project, in that every sow in the entire herd is ehter- ed and herd records rather than £the records o f individual animals are con­ sidered, Every litter in a farmer’s herd must average 1400 pounds before he becomes eligible to the new club which had its inception in 1929. .Ten farmers finished the pork pro­ duction project last year, an Increase o f 4 over the number in 1929, Wuichcflt states. The average weight per litter jvas 1571 pounds, but the range in weights was from 1440 to 1721 pounds per litter; a higher percentage o f pigs was raised this year than last, he says, fo r although 10 pigs were far­ rowed per sow in 1929 and 8.7 raised, during the past year 8.5 pigs were far rowed and 7.8 raised. A better job of feeding was done during 1930 than in 1929. Members qualifying for member­ ship in the pork production club will attend the honor club banquet to be held during Farmers’ Week at the College o f Agriculture, Columbus, on February 2-6. fo r the week are those dealing with] tests at the Ohio Agrkadtiwal Jh flH * raising chicks, the operation o f brood-] went Station.

Dr. Hornell Hart o f Bryn MaWr col­ lege, where many young women accu­ mulate knowledge back o f their high brows, tells parents that early mar riages are usually failures. Those married before twenty are ten times more apt to land in the divorce court than others. Trial marriages fall because they are experimental and secret. They fail also, although Doctor Hart doesn’t mention it, because the man in such a marriage lacks respect and affection fo r the woman. msmmm M h ‘HERALDWANTANDSALEADSPAY . The great philosopher Plato would have women marry well past thirty and men past fifty. But that defends on the breed and the individual. The mother supplies her child’s men­ tal and physical strength. She should have children when her strength of mind and body is at the maximum. The father supplies part o f the child’s mental ability, lie should mar­ ry later, giving such brain as he has a chance to mature fully.
