long suit,” says an English observer.
If there is any one thing the Ameri-
—r ~ |can public should watch closely at
this time, it is the Dill-White radjo
bill in congress. Although fixed up in
conference before passed by the
House, there are still jokers galore in
it. It has been held up by the Senate
because of its failure to formally vest
ownership of the air or either above
the United States in the National
government. This js well. It should be
held up forever unless that provision
is specifically included, and this too,
despite all arguments to the contrary.
Here is the reason. The first step
in a deliberate attempt to rob the
American public of the rights of the
freedom of the air has seemingly been
made. Such legislation as allowed by
the original bill would have made pos-
sible a corporation that would have
taken at least five hundred millions of
dollars a year from the people. The
original bill allowed, or would have
allowed the Radio Trust to impose a
service charge upon every person who
has a radio or who listens in. There
would have been a device (already a-
vailable) which eliminated all from
listening in, unless the charge was
paid. There are estimated to be 10,-
000,000 radjo sets in the United States.
At a charge of $1 weekly, per set—
the trust would have founded'a very
| profitable business—and growing dai-

COOLIDGE WILL RUN
IF ALIVE—YOU CAN BET
Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler, head
of Columbia University, is an able man
a very good speaker and his views al-
ways are interesting—but—as a poli-
tical prophet he is “not so good”’—the
country at large now seems agreed.
Dr. Butler’s Riverside speech where-
in he positively stated that President
Coolidge would not be a candidate for
another term; that only a wet can be
elected; and that the “third term”
factor was against the President
brought out adverse opinion from all
over the nation in the press and news
comment, also open ridicule from Re-
publican leaders, particularly in re-
gard to the third term issue.
Senator Borah’s quick accepfance
of the Butler challenge on the neces-
sity of the Republican party facing
the guns on prohibition was only a
sidelight. In an open letter to Mr. But-
ler , he said: “I agree with you per-
fectly that we should not dodge this
issue. I shall contribute in every way
I can to force the issue to a final con-
clusion in the next convention.” If
Borah does this, well and good. We

DANGER SIGNALS.
Since my last letter to this pap-
er, I have seen the announcements
of at least five deaths—the victims
ranging in age from 51 to 66
years, all of them business men.
The cause of death in each report
was given as “heart disease.”
What has brought about this state
of affairs? What may take place
in the next decade, among our busi-
ness men if this goes on? The
question is deservng of our most
profound study. .
From an experience of almost
thirty-five years, I am led to be
lieve that the heart is one of the
most durable, lasting organs of the
human body; it is capable of en-
during more punishment—and, un-
doubtedly gets it. Where? Not
from intense physical effort; hearts
fail in the swivel-chair,—at the
steering-wheel of the car. Pugil-
ists never drop dead from heart
disease—at least I never heard of
one doing so; heart disease is rare
among the laboring class.
The greatest enemy of the heart
is, the overloaded stomach—-the
stagnant blood-stream—the rotten
artery. ~ Keep away from these and
you will have escaped nine-tenths
of the terrors of death from
“heart disease.” It can only be
done by moderate indulgence in
food of the plainest variety—and,
drinking plenty of pure water;
commercialized drinks, let them be
water or what-not, should be
thoroughly investigated as to their
fitness for human consumption.
“The old oaken bucket that hangs
in the well” supplies about the
safest beverage known.
Tobacco is a genuine poison,—
but don’t be horrified, when I say
Frankfurters and kraut may kill a
man quicker if over-indulged. I
am loth to call the faithful Irish
potato a silent assassin, but am
tempted to do so sometimes.

Some of Mrs Harley’s kin folks |
from over in Elk county have been
visting her this week, and Harley has

a good impression. He hopes maybe
it'll help his standing a little when |
the folks go back and report on the]

Mr. and Mrs. Frank Perttle called |
on the Howard Evans family last|
Sunday. They meant to stay all after-
noon, but before Howard was more
than half way through telling how
bad he had the grippe several years
back, why Frank and his wife thought
of something urgent that they had to
go home to look after.
Andy - Dobbins stood eut on Main
Street in the rain for a good while
last Saturday trying to see if he
could distinguish somebody carrying
his umbrella that disappeared from
the postoffice two or three weeks ago.
But outside of getting wet clear thr-
ough, he didn’t accomplish anything.
Mrs. Amanda Bell ‘went over to
Burnside the other day to a sale at

bargains, and is now busy trying to
think of some use that she can make
of the things.
