TOO OFTEN IN THE PAST, IN | war Divorce has increased stead- A LAXATIVE, EDITORIAL VIEWS AND COMMENT THE NEWSPRINT SHORTAGE during the war led to elimination of some evils that were manifested for years, especially in this sec- tion. Chief among them was the almost complete disappearance of the so-called ‘‘sale” poster that used to be passed about so freely by many merchandising establish. ments practically twice a month, with each mine pay day. kkkokw FOR THE MOST PART, THESE “sale” bills were a lot of “baloney” and were fostered to bring people into the store doing advertising. The war may have educated a lot of these merchants that newspaper advertising is bet- ter, that it is more stable, more dignified, and really produces much better results. May the day of the “sale” bill be at an end. Even the average householder has hopes for that. sok ok ook THERE WAS A TIME WHEN this newspaper office spent much more of its mechanical time each week in producing this rather obnoxious method of advertising than it did in producing its news- paper, and that condition held good among most all the weeklies. The Telephone 8882 DR. R. M. QUIGLEY Altoona Veterinary Clinic Formerly Located at Tyrone, Pa. In General Practice for 28 Years result was that the newspapers didn’t amount to much. We are of the opinion that the shortage of newsprint had much to do with the development of better weekly newspapers. May the present trend continue. kok kok ok A WAR-TIME RISE IN BIRTH rate was given this week as the chief cause of a population jump which added 8,000,000 to the total population of the Nation between Apr. 1, 1940, and July 1, 1945. The Bureau of the Census says that there also was a comparatively low death rate during the same period. When birth rates rise, a healthy condition of a nation is in evidence. ok oi ok kok FROM ALL THE INDICATIONS, since Johnstown seems to have given up the idea of changing to fast time for the summer, the en- tire county will remain on the present standard system. While we have no fault to find with fast time, nevertheless, unless there is some general movement in that direction in county-wide areas, only confusion results. Heoksfeokok WHILE THE REPUBLICAN primary is being looked upon with interest because of a “fight” against organization candidates by independents, led by former Secre- tary of Highways John U. Shroyer, there likely won't be much interest shown in Democratic balloting. For the most part there is little oppo- sition.

A third will have to be named by write-in stickers at the primary. oe ke ok ok oe IN STATE - WIDE CAMPAIGNS only Col. John S. Rice, the org- anization candidate for Governor, has opposition at the primary, but Col. Rice should have no trouble. Rice is a farmer, and he urges the Pennsylvania farmers to support him. “The Republican machine,” Rice stated last week, ‘has always been so sure of the farm vote that it hasn't felt any need to do any- thing for the farmer.” Asking: “Who remembers when the Repub- lican organization has ever recog- nized the farmer by naming one for U. S. Senator or Governor?” he said “if Pennsylvania's farmers show in this election that they'll vote for a city manufacturer or a corporation lawyer for Governor just because he is a Republican, rather than a fellow farmer, how much recognition do you think they can ever hope to get from a Republican administration?” sok ok sok WE ARE PASSING THIS ON TO you from last week’s Johnstown ‘Observer,” Assemblyman Andrews’ weekly: “ ‘Tibbott Votes:for G. I. Housing,’ shrieks the morning paper in headline type. And so he did—for an emasculated measure that passed the House 346 to 1. However, he voted against an many communities, meetings of this nature are greeted with en- thusiasm at first, and then that enthusiasm is allowed to become indifferent. In the Patton problem this must not happen. All of us must continue to aim at the goal we so earnestly hoped for at the recent gathering. Instead of let- ting any of the interest dwindle, we must keep “pepping it up.” We'll get advancement here in Patton when we make that ad- vancement possible by our own ily for decades, and there are no accurate figures about separations, annulments and desertions. What to do about it? Folks interested in solving the problem from a civil standpoint don’t know. HOWEVER, HAVE YOU EVER looked upon as a religious state, there isn’t so much of a problem?
