SENATE WARTS
PREDICTED IN
PROBE OF S-4
Upper House Is Jealous of
Its Rights to Inquire
Into Disaster.
BY ROBERT TALLEY

WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.-Presi-
dent Coolidge's request for a special
board to investigate the S-4 disaster
and form general recommendation
for submarine safety will come un-
der fire again Thursday morning,
when the Senate Committee on
Naval Affairs resumes consideration
of the joint resolution for the boards
creation.
The measure already has been
passed by the House, but Senate
Democrats jealousy are guarding
the Senate's own right to investi-
gate the disaster, instead of relin-
gushing the job to others.
Those opposing the Presidents
plan appear slated to lose, the echo
Of their fight probably being heard
in some fiery oratory on the Senate
floor.
Opposition was voiced at Mon
days committee meeting by Senator
Walsh of Massachusetts,, and Sen
ator Swanson Of Virginia.
Joining with his Democratic COL
leagues in refusing to delegate the
S-4 investigation to another agency,
Senator King, Utah, proposed that
the Senate committee investigate all
naval disasters within the last two
years and try to get at the causes.
King also urged a general inveSti-

Texans Story of How He
Came To Adopt Black
Eraught AS His Favorite
Home Remedy for
Indigestion.

~ Mrs. j. c. McAnally, who lives
ar Anna, Texas, says:
In 1877 and 1878, I had typhoid,
i'd after this was in an awful bad
(; not able to work. 1 would eat,
I'd eat so much, then would have
digestion. My system was clogged
nd I would feel just awfully bad.
my brother-i n-law came to see
me, and I told him what a miser-
able fix 1 was in, just feeling SO bad,
dragging around, and he told me of
Black~Draught.
I believe this was the first time
I used it. I know 1 used it from
then on to now. / remember the
date, because it was the winter be-
fore came to Texas, in Februory,
1873, and Black-Draught has been
my medicine ever since. 1t is a good
purgative. 1t gives relief.
IF I have Smothering after meals,
or a. disagreeable feeling, Black
Draught relieves this. I am never
without it. I don't suppose my house
has been without it more than a
month since began its use. I carry
it in little box in my pocket, and
take a little pinch during the day,
if have the least diSagreeable feel
ing, and it does me good"

Twelve Buy Copy, But Is

BY RAY TUCKER

WASHINGTON, Jan. 11.-"Gover-

girl on her first meeting with New
York'S famous executive, lis it true
that you don't read books?"
mo-" retorted Al. Il have read
the Life and Battles of John L. Sui

But it is fact that Governor
Smith is not a bookworm.
Which gives a touch Of irony to
the following story of how politicians
have shown little interest in book
about one of the most talked-of men
in public life today.
In planning the sales campaign
Of Henry F. Pringles Life of Al
Smith," the authors publishers sent
to at least 1000 poll
ticians who, it was assumed, would
like to know more about the Demo-
Gratis possible presidential nominee.
The list included 531 members Of
House ard Senate, 200 members OF
the New York Legislature and about

INDIANA PRISON
LITER. 80, MAY
Be FREE SOON
Effort Being Made to Obtain
Release of Henry
Romine.

BU United Press
MICHIGAN CITY, Ind, Jan. H.
Although life prisoner in the
Michigan City State prison, Henry
Ronine, 80, has been paroled thir-
teen times and permitted to leave
the State ~without a guard or other
restraint except his promise to re-
turn.
Ronine, only Civil War veteran
serving a sentence in any peni-
tertiary in the United States, was
in Erie, Pa, today on his thirteenth
parole, visiting a daughter, Mrs.
Mary Moore, who is i'll.
Fifteen years ago, Ronline was in
volved in barroom brawl at Column
bus, Ind, in which a bartender was
slain. Three men implicated with
him turned States evidence and
gave circumstantial, evidence that
convicted Romine. He was SEN
fenced to life.
AT G. A. r. Meeting
Ronine was not permitted out of
the prison for eight years. But seven
years ago, he was paroled without
a guard so he could attend Grand
Army of the Republic convention.
This parole has become an annual
fixture. Romine has been released
every year for the annual C. A. r.
reunion. Illness among some of his
nine children also has obtained tenn
porary freedom for him. Once he
was paroled sixty days.
Liked by Warden
The aged veteran is great favor
lite Of Warden Walter H. DAILY. Pris-
on officials obtained for him tail
ored G. A. R. uniform to be worn
at the annual reunions.
The prisoners war record will be
cited in urging that he be pardoned.
He served with an Ohio company
OF volunteers in the Civil War and
distinguished himself at the battle
Of Kenesaw Mountain. Relatives of
the slain bartender whose name does
not appear on State records in this
late day have protested heretofore
against Romines pardon, but this
time it is expected to be granted.

do mor good than the so-caled
commercial seals?
What benefit did the local COM
munity drive from the sale of the
tuberculosis seals last year? We
had the services of a state nurse for
n week and every child of the To-
cal school as we'll as the Hendrick-
son school was given a thorough ex-
animation and defects reported to
the parents. In addition to this two
of u girls attended the Health
camp at Sidney for two months
time. The expenses of this Health
camp are partly paid through the
sale of the seals at Christmas time.
The total amount of money secur-
ed from the sale of seals in Plenty
wood in 1927 was S154.90. Let us try
to equal this record again this year.
Remember that we are not only to
buy the seals but also to USE them.
Every letter and every package that
goes out in the local ~postoffice from
now until Christmas should bear a
Christmas seal. If in doubt as to
where you can get them, just send
your money to the school and the
seals will be sent back in return.
ASK for them.

FOLDER TELLS STORY OF ANCIENT CITY'S
COMMERCIAL SUPREMACY.

The fourth of the series of folders

is being distributed by the Farmers

thus far. The outside cover presents
a beautiful picture in colors repre-
senting the port of Venice in the

The text deals with the reawaken-

of the Middle Ages. We in America
think of modern history as begin
ming with the discovery of America.
We forget the long series of events
that led up to it and made it newt
able. 1t was the revival of trade that
followed the reopening of the long
closed trade route to the East that
produced the prosperity that made
possible the Renaissance in learning

was the need of a water route to In
dia that made it worth while to risk
money and life itself in ocean ex-
ploration. One of the forgotten hero
es who gave an impetus to these
ventures and who inspired Columbus
and other navigators was our old
old friend Marco Polo. His long-for-
gotten book fired many an magma
ton and looSened the purse strings
of ship owners and kings.
Marco Polo's story and those of
his contemporaries are retold in con-
else but comprehensive form in the
latest folder in this notable series
which is revealing the part that mon
ey has played in the development of
civilization. These folders r being
received with interest in many homes,
and to the school children who are

welcome.

OTHER SCHOOL NEWS

The basket ball season ticket sale
has again been a success in that ap-
proximately 100000 were collected.
The success of the sale was due to
the efforts Of DR.. r. E. Gustafson
and r. E. Lang, who graciously sold
adult tickets. With, the assurance
of support of this kind, there is little
question that the basket ball season
will be a success financially.
The next school program will be
a grade operetta: "Yanki San" 1t
will be given at the Orpheum the
atre on Friday, December 18th I'M
less there is a change of date, which
will be announced later. Plan on be-
ing there and enjoy yourself. Reg
ular prices: evening so cents straight
and matinee rs and so cents.
There have been several cases of
humps throughout the lower grades
of the school but more especially in
the fifth grade. Though humps is
not especially of a serious nature, it
will pay to take care of the patient
afflicted in order that there will not
be a general epidemic of this disease.
Keep the child isolated from the
rest of the children and do not per-
NIT him to return to school until
eve days after the swelling has
disappeared.
The high school play given We'd
nesday, November 28th, was a finan-
cial success in that the proceeds of
the matinee and evening perform
ances totalled $4,000. The proceeds
are placed in the high school fund to
be used from time to time for the
benefit of outside activities.
1t is not too late to buy season
tickets for basket ball. There are
two home games this week. Conner
town plays here on Wednesday and
Froid on Friday. Come out and see
a good game. The band will play at
both games.
