There was a hot time in the
old town last week. Addie Van
Klingeren's son-in-law returned
home, discharged from the Navy.
Addie seemed to recover quick
ly, no reports on the daughter
though.
Josephine FeSsler and Chuck
Jordan announce their engage
ment in one breath and in the
next, their marriage, as of Sat-
urday. Good luck, folks. That
was a short engagement. wanda

Archie Fuller returned from
week of hunting with his
quota of birds and rabbits. When
interviewed regarding his ex-
periences, he merely blushed
and said he would rather not
discuss it. We were wondering
why.

Once upon a time there was a

Florence Merrill is on the job

seem to affect her ability to
laugh, and we mean all over.
Just a reminder: Wednesday,
Dec. IL, is the next regular

meeting of this year. Let's make
an attempt to have a large at,

ing about their compensation

who has had this misfortune
should contact the PAC Office,

to vote for the Pepper-Murray
65-cent minimum wage bill.

sign your name and address.
Mr.. Taft, the genial labor hat
ing senator from Ohio, has final
ly shown how vicious he can be
by publicly announcing that he
does not believe in wage in
creases. 1t is his belief that low
wages and high profits is the
only way this country can be-
come prosperous. What he didn't
say is who is going to buy all
these products if 1t takes all the
workers pay for food for his
family. We wonder how his
farmer supporters feel about
this, they know by this time the
more money labor receives the
more money they get for their
produce or whatever they raise
for the market.

EDITORIAL

EDITORIAL
The newspaper publisher
stood at the broad window
and peered down on the NOV
ing ants. Altitude contributed
to the feeling of power that
flickered in his shreWd eyes.
He had just written an edi-
torial that would change the
lives of those specks. They
would read it tonight under
their lamps. Tomorrow they
would be different people.
AS he stood there in his
Ivory Tower, gazing down on
his marionnettes, he chuckled.
Tonight they would read
about the man whom he had
pursued, secretly, all these
years. Tonight their eyes
would be opened by this art
full logic. And his enemy
ah, he would be shattered. he
chuckled again.
GLOATING
Dusk was gathering in the
panelled office. He did not
bother with the light. There
in the gloom he gloated over
the dramatic turn of events.
It had been a mastery job OF
destruction. Piece by piece,
bit by bit, he had inserted his
poison into his readears
minds - until, now, tonight,
he was prepared to admins
ter the final stroke.
The publisher struck q
match to a long cigar. 1t glow
ed against the polished VIM
dowpane, intermittently light
ing the victory, in the shrewd
eyes. Victory! 1t was sweet.
The man who had wanted to
tie his hands now found his
own hands tied. What would
he say of that when he saw
tonight's newspaper? The
thought brought the publisher
up short. He half-turned
from the window to a picture
on the wall, but did not look.
The publishers face began
to change. The heavy chin
sagged-just trifle, but
enough to mark the sudden
depression of his mood. The
shrewd eyes became searching
looking down below, as If
looking for a single figure.
But will they believe it,
the fools?"
DOUBT
Doubt paralyzed his face.
Now-with this evidence be-
fore them-maybe the dolts
would still disbelieve. But
they must believe - damn
their ignorant hides! Didn't
they know the man was dam
gerous? The small specks.
moving toward home in the
twilight, appeared to mock
the publisher. 1t seemed as II
they moved with a dancing,
sure purpose.
"They must believe"
He fell back into the swivel
chair and swung about to
stare at the picture on the
wall-his enemy. Then, with
trembling hand, he switched
on the desk light, and leaned
forward to read the editorial:
ROOSEVELT GUILTY OF
PEARL HARBOR."
He looked up sharply at the
picture.
There. How does that
strike your"
The picture looked back
with a jaunty smile. 1t was
then that the publisher tasted
his final bitterness. He would
always be in pursuit of a
ghost.
