ASLEEP

It was only a tiny mongrel pup
Asleep for good in the leafy drain,
But 7 felt the tears come yelling up
To ease the ache Of a wordless
pain.
I suppose a car in the gathering
dusk.
Or the city's grimy smoke and fog
Had struck and left the little husk--

All this may be rather cold comfort But
it does reveal a slow, steady progress toward
economic health.

The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-11-25

He has been touring many states with speeches demanding back to the 1892 democratic plat- form" "back to the Constitution" " and "back to Jeffersonian democ- racy." 4a
 Talmadge's objective is uncer- tain. Perhaps he really hears the alluring buzz of the presidential bee, and is trying to line up in his favor state delegations to the national democratic convention next summer.
 Perhaps he is laying wires that lead to l940. Perhaps he is as- piring merely to the U.. s. senate or another term as governor. Perhaps he simply believes the democratic party is sacrificing it's heritage and seeks to rescue 1t it from what he sees as certain death on the shoals of Socialistic experiments.
 In any case that ambition may be affected by Q demonstration of Roosevelt support such as Georgia New Dealers have planned for Att Flanta on November 29. They hope to trace some handwriting on the wall of Grant Field which will be easily read through the horn-rim- med spectacles of Governor Tal- madge.

To be a success nowadays a pie ture must please the people in the back row of the balcony as we'll as those down in front in the orches- tra; and that is just what Thanks A Million" does and it will no doubt be the cause of crowds packing into Polls until the end of its run which will be on Wednesday night.
 A few weeks ago Laurence Tib- bett poured his glorious baritone voice all over Ed Fitzpatrick's Poi theater and there were some empty seats, but now Dick Powell lifts his arms, croons a ditty or two while Fred Allen wisecracks and Patsy Kelly acts 8 little "teched in the head" and the s. R. O. sign has been out for the past two days, and well 1t might be as Thanks Mill lion" pleases all of the family. Dad will howl at the wisecracks of Fred Allen, mother and sister will look google-eyed at the antics of little Dick ana adolescent Johnny will find the satire well suited to His psuedo-sophistication.
 The picture seems the most com plete from all angles to have been seen in Waterbury in a long time
 Others in the cast are Paul Whiteman and his band with Rom- ona, Rubinof and his violin, Ann Dvorak, Raymond Walburn who is very funny as the drunken politi- clan and then for an added treat there is the Yacht Club boys and how they will please all.

Clark Gable, he-man of the films, whose virile roles have made him the idol of the nations millions of theatergoers, co-stars with Loretta Young and Jack Oakie in Jack London's famous story Call of the Wild" The picture heads the pro- gram at Warner Brothers Strand theater today, tomorrow and We'd nesday.
 A story of unbridled romance which recognizes only Natures laws, 1t is a literal interpretation of "the call of the wild" and Daryl zanuck, who produced the stirring saga of the last of our great frontiers, has invested the original text with a dramatic love story.
 It's the "tops" in screen enter tainment and picture that can be missed only with regret.

ton in man who spent hve years at the state university.
 In fact, opponents point out that Talmadge, though born In the small rural community of Forsyth in 1884, was really city, reared in Atlanta and did not be- come a farmer until he married 8 widow wha was farm-owner near McRae. On this 900-acre farm Talmadge delights to shirt sleeve about in the character of vorite nickname.
 The governorship is the second public office the law-trained Tal- madge has ever held. In 1927 he was appointed state commission CT of agriculture. In that post he built up great popularity with the farmers and the rudiments of a political machine. ( CALLS OUT THE MILITIA
 In his first campaign for gov- ernor, three. years ago, the rural vote pulled Talmadge through in an eight-sided race. He had promised 8 auto license tags The legislature wouldn't provide them.
 So Talmadge set the 8 fee by edict. The highway department objected to reorganization, so he tok it over with national guard trops, removing its funds from the banks to the state treasury under machine-gun guard, evict- ing defiant officials and disregard- ing their surnmonses to civil suits.
 Though not anti-public utility ir the general sense, Talmadge forced reductions in power, telephone, ant railroad rates. He. reduced tht states debt. In a landslide vote last year he was reelected.
 Since then he has lost no op. portunity to attack every phase oi the New Deal, demanding an end tC '.NRA-ism' as virtual communism.
 He wrangled with federal relic authorities over expenditure o1 federal funds in Georgia, and an. other wrangle is due here SCOT when an end to federal aid 1. reached - opponents of Talmadgt say his state economy records will not look so good when the state assumes the burden of relief school and road expenditures.

There is nothing red about Gene Talmadge except his 'suspenders. Most of his views are poles apart from Longs. Though he always took good care to express personal fondness and admiration for Long, Talmadge's politics are far from the Share the Wealth program. Should he become the leading anti Roosevelt Democrat, it will mean "back to Cleveland" move rather than back to Bryan" one.

Atlanta, Nov. 25 = Governor Eu- gene Talmadge of Georgia appears to be sole heir to the cloack of Huey Long as chief democratic op- ponent of Franklin D. Roosevelt.
 But the cloak fits strangely, and has been dyed another color in the transfer.
 For there is little in common be- tween Long and Gene Talmadge except 8 certain facility at "just folks" politics, a consuming hatred of the New Deal and all it's works, and the willingness to fight out spokenly against it.

Good Evening.


 By CLARENCE HAWKES.
 The Blind Poet of Hadley Mass. Though the winds blow cold and the skies are drear And Winters in the air. Inside the house is 8 world of cheer, So what do we know or care While the old folks chat and the young folks play, We all are home for Thanksgiving Day. Twas Pilgrim feast, they hold of yore, In gratitude to God Who had driven the wolf from the cabln door, And blessed the virgin sod, So we today with thoughts sublime, Give praise to Him, at Thanksgiving time. To those who have not the means to feast, Let us give of our store, Let neither man. nor bird, nor beast, Pass empty by our door.
 And the gracious sun did bless us all Who shares his feast with a fellow man, Makes his own meaa doubly sweet, Twas thus Christ spoke of the Heavenly pan As he sat with the twelve at meat. God help us all when the .ables set, Our neighbours needs not to forget

Aged Man Drowned

Gacinto Delnegro, "A, who came
to Cecil county from Brooklyn, N. Y,
purchasing the William Stanley farm
in Elk Neck, was drowned in a pecu-
liar manner Thursday night.
He had made his home with his
son and daughter-in-law, Mr.. and
Mrs. James Delnegro, and had gone
to the yard to bring in some wood.
While returning, he fell face down
ward in pool of water, caused by
heavy rains filling a trench which
had been dug for new porch.
The aged mans daughter-in-law
heard the noise made when he lei
and hurried to his aid. She was un-
able to rescue him, however, and the
Sheriff's office at Elkton was notified
by phone. The man was dead when
the officers arrived. Coroner F..
Rodney Frazer, of Elkton, made an
investigation.
