He is a half-brother of Mrs. c. w.

Sweeney is being talked of as
Democratic candidate for governor.
From the Times Talkies' col
umn of the Daley Times, Chicago,
we take the following question:
Among the prize answers was one
submitted by Harold Finley, son of
Mrs. Kate C. Finley of this place:
Question, "a psychologist says peo-
ple would do the same things if they
had their lives to live over again;
do you think most people learn by
experience?" Mr.. Finley's answer:
Il think everyone should learn by
experience, but most people actual
ly do repeat errors they have made
in the past. Succumbing to cur
rent fads, trusting other people too
much, and failing to save money
during time of prosperity, are eX-
emples of repeated folly of which
the majority of us are guilty. We
probably would do no better If Civ
en- another life" The most of the
answers submitted the same opin-
ion.

Gar

Lima is going to have trent
czar", according to present plans of
the Office of Price Administration.
Chances are about $3.50 whether
he will be a local man or someone
sent from Washington or from a field
office of OPA.
His title probably will be "Rent
Administrator, and his jurisdiction
is expected to include, besides Lima,
all of Allen county. His headquart-
ers are expected to be in Lima.
Purpose of OPA in naming a
rent czar will be to lift from the
shoulders of local authorities the
load of responsibility entailed in en-
forcing the new rent freezing order,
as well as to see that the local rent
situation is handled to the satisfac-
ton of OPA.

For Triplets

Ten Shropshire ewes on the r. c.

this spring to start a flock of sheep
all their own and each dropped trip
