''Boobooks" Still Threaten
Fair United States

DO you know what a boobook is?
Are you otioSe?
Is the logic of all this ineluctable? +?
Yes?
Then you will not need a glossary
to read former Gov. Chase Osborne S
formal announcement of his candi-
dacy for the United States Senate.
The Sault ste. Marie man who can
drive more men TO the dictionary
than Theodore Roosevelt has pre-
sented his political creed to the peo-
pie of Michigan.
He proclaims his belief in woman
suffrage, prohibition, organized labor
world alliance.
He charges that on preparedness
the Senate and House sat with fold
ed arms in an "otiose dream"
(Otiose means idle, ineffective.)
Beware of the 'BooBook."
He believes in protecting the
country from boobooks."

in Australia and Tasmania; so called
because of its hoot.)
1T is ineluctable that our govern
ment will be just what me make
it." he says.
Uneluctable means inescapable,
unavoidable, inevitable.)
Mr.. Osborns announcement reads
in part; -
Michigan for United States Sena-
tor
ITO some extent L have a public
record. 1t reflects to a degree my
equipment, my temperament, my
character and my views.
"It is deplorable that our leaders
have been without vision as to the
necessity for preparedness and that
certain members of both Senate and
House sat complacently with folded
arms as in a otiose dream. But
now the country is doing so well in
every respect that there needs only
to be confidence and sustained CO.
operation to win the war for our
Nation and our faith.
