Says Youth Must
Be Given Chance
To Win Vacations
DR.. Combs Says Radicalism
Will Develop in Land,
Otherwise

While paying tribute to
American youth for its restraint
in the face Of economic difficult
ties. DR.. Gilbert r. Combs, pas
tor of the First Methodist church,
said in an address to the Kiwanis
club yesterday that young people
will not always remain tolerant
and that society at large must re-
move obstacles so that they may
find suitable vocations in life that
will offer opportunities for sue
cess.
"While young people have been
patient during the priod Of eco
monte stress and have on the
whole conducted themselves ex-
tremely we'll, there is a current
of radicalism underneath which,
if it is permitted to come to the
surface, will give rise to situa,
tions similar to those which led
to the establishment Of dictator
ial forms of government in Eu-
rope" the speaker said. I'm Eu-
rope, young men usually adopt
the vocations of their fathers, but
American youths have been en-
couraged to enter the business or
profession to which they seemed
to be best adapted and which APP
parently offered the best oppor-
tunities for financial gain or 9TH
er achievement. Many of these vo-
cations have been virtually closed
for several years, and unless the
way is cleared for young people
to be married at the normal age.
with visible means of support, |
am afraid the spirit Of radicalism
will continue to gain adhercnts
throughout the nation"
DR.. Combs spoke for the clubs
vocational guidance committee,
of which Edw. r. Sutherland IS
chairman. lie was introduced by
DR.. L. T. Wilds, pastor of the
Presbyterian church.

confidence among the Americas"

The president spoke at u lunch

L. S. cruiser Indianapolis, which
will speed him back TO the United
States.
Mr.. Roosevelt did not Specifi-
cally mention the Monroe doctrine,
Keystone of United States-Latin-
American policy, but his reference
to President Monroe made his
South American listeners wonder
whether some change in the IL
year-old doctrine was contemplate
ed in view of the rapidly shifting
world scene.

CHURCHILL READY TO
FORM GOVERNMENT

LONDON, Dec. 4. - (UP).-
Prime Minister Stanley Baldwin
faced a historic session Of parlia-
ment as he threw a clear-cut chal-
lenge to King Edward to drop his
plans to marry Mrs. Wallis Simp-
SON or abdicate.
There could be no mistaking
the meaning of Baldwin's state
,ment. He Informed that o COM
mons morganatic marriage is con-
trary to English law and anyone
the king marries automatically be-
comes queen. 49,,
Since the government has taken
an irrevocable stand against MRS.
Simpsons becoming queen, the
king has no choice except to ap-
dicate or give up marriage.
There are strong indications
that the strong-willed monarch IN,
tends to accept the challenge and
fight back, carrying his fight to
the people and risk losing his do
minions, which, Baldwin said, are
opposed to the marriage.
On highest authority It was sad
that the king intends to DEFY
Baldwin, the conservatives, clergy
and press. and to form q govern,
ment headed by the brilliant and
erratic Winston Churchill.
A general election would result
and the people would decide on
the kings course.
The royal family has been ao-
vised of the kings decision. queen
Mary was reported threatening TO
retire into grief-stricken seclu!ion
the remainder Of her life, wniie
the Duke of York threatened TO
leave the country with his Scot
fish Duchess.
Meantime, Mrs. Simpson is in
France, speeding toward seclusiori
at a villa with friends at Cannes
on the Riviera. The American d.
vorcee is riding in a black Buick
auto given her by Edward.
London newspapers, believed TO
be acting on direct government
inspiration today increased their
terrific pressure on King Edward;
Bringing out clearly the real
objection to Mrs. Simpson, the
Daily Telegraph, most reserved
and conservative organ, in a mer.
CHESS summation Of the case said
the lady of the land must be uI,-
touched by rumors and reports
such as have been generally cir
culated throughout the world. IL
is said Britons could not tolerate
the lowering of the queership
standard below that set by Queens
Mary, Alexandra and Victoria
during the past century.

THE SEASON OF COLDS

While it would be impossible to
secure any records of the number
of people, suffering from the COM
mon cold, we know it would be very
high as no class of people is ex-
empt. When you consider the COM
mon cold from an economic stand
point, it is found to be expensive.
ALI winter we will be having the ap-
parently harmless cold develop into
some acute respiratory disease. It
may be the forerunner of laryngitis,
bronchitis, pneumonia and other al
lied conditions. We know that the
common cold is infectious and it is
not fair to society, to schools, or to
your neighbor to go about exposing
others when suffering from this in
lection. We hope parents will real
ize this fact and not allow their
children to attend school when they
might infect others.
The best protection for both the
sick and the well is for the one suf-
fering from cold to go home, go
to bed, and to stay there until re-
covered While doing the best
thing for himself, he is likewise CIV
ing the best protection for his
friends, neighbors, and the general
public. See your physician early if
you do not improve as you feel you
should.-C. E. Northrup, M. D.,
Health Commissioner.

SUMMERS STUDIO MoDERNIzEs

This week Mr.. Summers Of the
Summers studio has had installed in
his studio complete new lighting
outfit OF the very latest design, from
the Beattie company, Hollywood,
California. This outfit which cost
nearly $500 is same as used in all
the Hollywood studios for their still
shots, and is the first to be installed
in any studio in this part Of Ohio.
For the past six months Mr.. Sum-
mers has been going through a
course OF study and instructions for
the use OF these lights and Holly
wood lighting effects with the Beat
tie company, and after completing
the course of study bought the COM
plete lighting outfit from the same
company.
The outfit consists of a main
lighting source of versatile nature
and two accessory rejecting lights
which combine into a unit giving a
very snappy modern picture and at
the same time a very softening ef-
feet which washes out wrinkles and
old age to q great extent; it makes
old people look much younger. The
outfit used in the past by Mr.. Sum-
mers was an outfit of his own design
and manufacture, and was fast prov
ing inadequate to his ambitions.
