AS WE SEE 1T
By MoNTCo

THE WAY THINGS are shaping up
at Philadelphia, with the added COM
ntments of Mr.. John D. M. Hamilton,
+ appears that Mr.. Jim Farley hadn't
ought to shoot his mouth off so much.
No matter how much one approves of
franklin D. Roosevelt and no matter
how deeply one feels contempt for the
Liberty Leaguers and the Political
Hitch-hikers," one does resent certain
people hanging around Democratic
headquarters who, in the vernacular,
give you a pain in the dorsal verte-
brae. THAT'S the trouble with us
Democrats" one local vote-getter said
this week, 1--WE ruin our own gravy
BY having too excellent memories.
The Republicans usually forget their
party strife and jine hands against
the common enemy--we Democrats
run for office, get beaten and then
childishly begrudge the winner his
triumph for evermore."

THERE is NO DOUBT but that
the young voters will have a lot to
|say about the result of the coming
election. Here, in this county, we
have plenty of evidence of the en-
thusiasm Of the younger blades who
are whooping it up for Roosevelt. The
Young Landonites, united behind Gov.
Alt Landon and his young Spanish
american War veteran running-mate,
are not quite so numerous nor so we'll
organized. But these modern young
Ssers have horror of walking any
where and there won't be as many
party OBJECTIONS among the young set
some would have you believe.

AS FOR FATHER COUGHLIN
and Rev. Gerald Smith, they will de-
fleet some votes from both major
political groups but they will be
Scattered, principally down in the sor-
ghum and red hog districts. There
will be lot of spoiled ballots be-
longing to the third-party candidate.
Many cool and calm Roosevelt sup
porters are now afraid that the man
who sells stamps and directs the New
Deal campaign will make the same
mi AXE Smith and Coughlin made
casting too many bivets promiscuous-
by abroad.

THERE is NO occasion for the
Democrats to particularly mourn the
passing of AL Smith, Jim Reed and
others of like ilk who have become
closely identified with the DuPont's
Liberty League. The real strength of
both the Democratic and Republicans
hes in those leaders who are bona fide
officials of either the National or
American League. Just as Judge
Kenesaw Mountain Lands Furnishes
the baseball outlaws, so will the vot-
ers deny the fruits of political victory
to any of these gentlemen who are
becoming SO very, very fond of nice,
long walk. It is pretty hard to have
an office atop skyscraper and, at the
same time, shy off at the advances
Of the Thirty" who run America.

RED Is I'm FAVOR - II
FOR EVENING WEAR
BY CHERIE NICHOLAS

The fashionable set literally "saw
red' at the|brilliant first night func-
tons of the winter season. Red vel
vet wraps, gowns of red taffeta
and slipper satin, the CLEAN of red
in nails and lips-the shades varied
all the way from the subtle smoky
reds to the brighter tones of ruby,
coronation and mountie, or orange
red. 3
Particularly effective is a red vel
vet gown, ermine-trimmed and
worn with a white ermine wrap,
and an artful Juliet cap of red over
sleek blonde hair. The sleeves were
long and bound with ermine at the
wrists. An ankle-length wrap of
faille taffeta in mountie red, very
slim of waist and broad of Shout
der was worn by striking bru-
nette.
Muffs are worn demurely small
or large and debonair. A girl in
bouffant black net under a slim
black velvet wrap carried a large
muff of white ermine tails, decorat-
ed with a spray of gardenias.
All-black splashed with color is
again repeated and is second in fav.
or to the predominating red.

"Skipbers," be 2arpa Of q fly, wbicb batch
in meat not PROPERLY smoked. Greatly enlarged
During cold weather, keeping
meat on, the farm is a simple mat
ter. But when hot summer comes, or
warm spell in winter, look out !!
You suddenly find your meat, into
which so many hours of hard labor
and feed have been put, crawling
with Shippers! This little worm
(shown in photo above) is the
larva of a fly, which has laid it's
eggs in the meat. At the first warm
spell, they hatch.
But there are other troubles be-
sides shippers. Green mold often de-
velopS, or rancidness near the bone.
The meat dries out, gets too hard
to eat.
ONLY ONE PREVENTIVE
Thorough smoking is the only
known way to prevent all these
troubles. But how? Everyone knows
how uncertain the old smokehouse
method is. Other so-called smoking
methods, or substitutes for smoking,
are likewise risky. How can you tell
whether or not the meat is thor
oughly smoked? But if you want to
be absolutely SURE your meat will
come through the hot summer
months sweet and wholesome and
eatable, don't take chances. Brush
every square inch with FIGARO
