the platform, also matter of simple
routine, since, to modern politics,
platform is merely what those futile
little tin tongs used to be box of
candy; every box contained pair,
but you threw them away before you

Alas, that there should remain one

CTEVE COCHRAN has had to call
~ off his Summer theater-for this
season-not for next. Due to some
sort of a building muddle, the Darby
Farms auditorium at late hour yes
terday decided that it couldn't possibly
be finished until early in September,
and since September is pretty late for
a Summer theater to start action,
Steve wisely decided to call 1t day.
However, inasmuch as there is such
a thing as f1ve-year lease involved,
actors and would-be patrons need not
despair. The theater will arise and
take ship shape gradually during the
Winter and will be ready for its 800

anxiety.
Mr.. Fields is swapping out of pneu-
monia with startling rapidity. This
Is partly due to his ability to keep
himself and his doctors roaring with
laughter, as also to constitution
that has had to keep itself in trim
through years of acrobatic maneuver-
ings. Both Of these welcome achieve
ments have kept the wolf away from
his door many time and it is stated
that when he was at his lowest point
he was still able to crack out with
such an astonishing wisecrack that
the evil powers-that-b took one look
at him and fled around the corner.
MIR. Fields, like Harry Lauder, has
the good grace to be as amusing OIL
stage as he Is on (that Is II you
like him-the man next door doesn'O d.
At the breakfast table his humor
is as sagely volcanic as it is in the
music halls and those that have met
him once are said to be still laughing.
The opposition is, however, as fat as
the defenders. The man next door,
for instance, believes that Carlo Is
funnier and swears that he has had
bigger and better laughs at Ghosts"
or "Sins Of Man.
What you see in that fellow" he
says, sadly scratching his head, and
for that matter, what you see in Laurel
and Hardy" etc.
Well, what makes comedian
funny? Why do you like Joe Cook?
Why don't you like Harold Lloyd?
Why did you roll in the aisle at the
Fox last week when Herb Williams,
for the millionth and first time, got
down on his knees over those bells?"
Why do Zasu Pittss restless arms re-
duce you to pulp? And why don't you

probably a pain to your neighbor.
There are even those who have dared
to say that they don't care for Shirley
Temple. It's all matter of the state
of your mind, the state Of your diges-
ton and the weather.
For all that, however, We can't help
but side with the Fields followers,
He may not have any particular right
to be funny-but funny he is-that
is if doubling up with laughter has
anything to do with it.
His passive face, with the nose
pointed up like a terriers is some
thing that spells doom for any or

THANK GOD FOR HIM

Thank God there are still few men left in the
congress of the United States who refuse to sit idly
by while the demagogs and dirt throwers attempt to
destroy and defie everything fine in American life!
Thank God there men like Senator Glass,
Democrat, of Virginia, who arose in the senate in
response to the cowardly attack of Senator Nye on
the late Woodrow Wilson.
1t sickens and disgusts us to think that men like
Nye can gain political prominence through such
chcanery as is practiced in the so-called investiga
tions, where the dead are desecrated and the liv-
ing pillored to further the ambition of a poll
teal trickster.
The muck-rakers of days gone by pale into insig-
nifcance beside these filthy fellows who would tear
down everything we hold fine and sacred in order
to build themselves
Soon the time is coming when the people will
again turn thumbs down on this type of politician.
Soon the time is coming when they will have had
enough of this sort of thing and when they will
stand no more. Soon the time is coming when the
cracked, half-baked theories and theorists will be
labeled and recognized for exactly what they are.
1t takes patriots of the type of Carter Glass to
put them where they belong.
Thank God for hm*-Rock Hill, $50 Herald.

NEWSPAPERS OPINION
RACKETS

As quite often legitimately occurs, an ad was
put in the help wanted part of the classified sec
ton of a newspaper That is the way in which
many honest companies obtain leads to new en-
poyeeS. But in this particular case the man put
ting in the ad was stalking racket.
In the case in point, as in many others, the
feature that should have warned the victims a
demand on them for money. Any such demand,
no matter how sweetly explained should be occa-
sion for every person to check thoroughly the re-
sponsibility of any comparative stranger making
the request or suggestion.
The racketeer in the case we have in mind, which
happened in Georgia only few days ago, said he
was hiring few picked men and told those he
picked to obtain surety bonds for their honesty.
He supplied application forms of reputable in
surance company, APPARENTLY, and them accepted
SO from each applicant for bond (and the job.)
Within couple of days the racketeer vanished
and with him all the SO payments.
A mail order type of racket takes advantage of
the publicity given the Social Security Law and
given DR.. Townsend and his Plan. People 65 years
old and older are contacted with suggestion that
they can save worry and money by obtain
ing information and help to hasten their receipt Of
payments.
The most that any of the victims received was a
simple explanation about the Social Security Law
and its various provisions.
Inasmuch as the Social Security board or COM
mission is scarcely than started on its studies
in Washington and as the first law is expected to
be revised and amended at the present we'll as
at later sessions of Congress, it would seem that
anybody who spends money now in hope of get
ting pension payment soon is just throwing money
away-Goldsboro News-Argus.

that is sincere in its intention to serve them
and to present it's honest views in every
case where an expression as to principles
or policies is made.
We believe large majority of the peo-
ple of this town and section approve Of

naner men, who are responsible for its

party, or sinister influence, to formulate

ground and dictate to them.
