Reg. Q. S. Pat on

If excitement is a banisher of sorrow and
Of trouble.
Mr.. Van de Views should vanish like an
evanescent bubble;
For the children dressed in dimity -
frock and little waist
Necessarily dispel his melanchona with
haste.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1928-07-04

Mr.. Van de View, the Connoisseur, to dis
sipate his gloom,
Cor he thinks the lot Of poverty has now
become his DOOM
Takes the children out to Central Park
to, celebrate the day,
And to make believe courageously that he
is feeling gay.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1928-07-04

So he has to make demonstration now to
every one
Just to show them how the firing of q
cracker should be done,
But the lady in the bloomer frock with
buttons and the frills
Doesn't seem to care so much about the
patriotic thrills.
The Indianapolis times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1922-1965, 1928-07-04

With a sparkler he has made a flower
blooming from the soil.
Which delights little girl who wears
frock of printed voile.
But the fellow in the sweater suit in evil
dent disdain,
Has a preference for crackers-it is very,
very plain.

SWINGING INTO LINE

1t is coming-the capture of the
grain belt States by Herbert Hoover.
We were convinced that it would.
During his passage through the mid
West the Republican candidate has
had opportunity to confer with
many leaders. He has discussed
with them the farm problem and
has been received with enthusiasm.
Senator McNary has turned in for
Hoover and is entirely satisfied with
his attitude toward-the farmers. The
Governor of Nebraska is waiting
for the Hoover speech of acceptance
before declaring himself outright,
but that he will eventually join the
Nebraskans generally in their sup
port of the Secretary of Commerce
we do not doubt.
Hoover has an appeal that is diff
fcult to withstand. Governor Ham
mill of Iowa, who opposed him in
convention, recognizes that Hoover
is a real friend of the farmer; has
ideas of great value; is committed
