A Hungarian court at four o’clock
convicted a man of robbing a bank,
and he was hung at six o’clock. A
little drastic in comparison with our
own methods, but it must be admitted
that it is effective.
An able contemporary remarks that
a newspaper that does not make its
readers mad once in a while is not
worth the subscription price. Are we
expected to infer that an irate reader
had just been in?
United States treasury figures show
that there is now some 390 millions
dollars more in circulation than in
1922. Considering the increased pur
chasing power the comparison is con
siderably greater.
Evidence shows that preparedness
in one of the best means of prevent
ing wars. We have the word of high
officers of the Imperial German army
that, had the United States been pre
pared for war in 1910, Germany would
not have attempted to draw her into
the conflict.
Governor Bryan is early in the
field for re-nomination. Industrial
depression, jobless workers and cheap
wheat put him in the state house. At
this juncture it looks like there would
be no chance of him mustering enough
voters who have seen better days
since he is at the helm to put him
across to victory again.
With the occupation of territory in
Manchuria by Japanese troops comes
much discussion, by statesmen, of the
League of Nations and its effort to
force Japan to release her hold, by
peaceful methods. It would seem that
the Kellog pact to outlaw war and
such other bunk are of little value
hb long as men have greed in their
hearts. The next man to hold power
usually has little or no respect for
the treaties his predecessor signed.
Science and invention have done
much to get the most from nature
and the none too responsive land, yet
when ‘.the elements are stirred to
stormy action man is helpless before
its vast energy. The best he can do
is get behind a windbreak and wait
for better weather. Six thousand
years of history gives but one in
stance of a human voice staying the
progress of the tempest. “Then He
arose and rebuked the wind and the
raging of the water; and they ceased,
and there was a great calm.”
Experting the county official fig
ures nnd records of Boyd county has
just been terminated after a long
drawn out program beginning in 1925.
It has ended in the county paying to
auditors $8,000 to recover $1,510.61.
A demand is to be made on our county
board for the auditing of the records
in the interests of economy. Those
bonded auditing experts don’t work
for their health nnd have the habit of
making a job last for ever. The loss
in Boyd county at this time of dis
tress is particularly hard, nnd per
haps we can profit by what has been
learned there in the costly school of
experience.
Capone has come to the end of his
career. What municipal authorities
were unable or indisposed to do the
department of justice of the federal
government has effectually and speed
ily accomplished. Eleven years in a
federal penitentiary, a fine of fifty
thousand and court costs of probably
that much more would subdue the best
of them. There is more to the con
viction of Capone than the downfall
of a master criminal. It conveys a
significance that will have a whole
some effect in establishing confidence
the country over in the supremacy of
law. Now is the time to follow up
with decisive mesures to suppress the
Capones evcrwheve. ' outcome
of this case has been of more than
ordinary interest to O’Neill people be
cause one of the government attorn
eys, Will Froelich. who has had I uch
to do wi h getting the e ivencc which
convicts Capone, is one of our own.

Ewing Defeats O’Neill 27-0
Ewing swept through O’Neill last
Friday, leaving no doubt about their
tradition of winning while O’Neill
was upholding her losing spirit. Ew
ing’s backfield shift and reverses had
O’Neill puzzled, while her line swept
everything before it.
For O’Neill it can be said that a
clean game was played. Not enough
spirit was evident to even make things
interesting for Ewing. Game captain
Kelly provided the defensive spark
for his team, and did some neat block
ing. Bud Hunt provided a nice sur
prise and turned in some good tackles,
but that is about all that can be said
for the team. Medlen had his first
punt blocked as the line didn’t hold.

A progressive state has constructed
nine hundred miles of road in a few
months. Which causes one observer
to note that it would have taken an
explorer longer than that to pass
over the territory a hundred and fifty
years ago. In other words, we can
build a road faster today than our
Colonial ancestors cold travel.

Rausch and William Hubby assumed
the nuptial vows on Tuesday, Septem

mony at the Presbyterian parsonage.
They were attended by the groom’s
brother and wife, Mr. and Mrs. Virgil

The bride is a charming young lady,
who has spent almost all of her life
in and around Akron. She spent two
years in the home of her cousins, Mr.
and Mrs. L. E. Peck, of this city, at

Akron high school with the class of
1930. Since that time she has made
her home with her aunt, Mrs. Ethel
Kaczar, of Meek, Nebr. The groom

ness that life can hold.

relatives here and at points in South

young people of the Christian church
in honor of Mr. and Mrs. William
Hubby, of Meek, Nebr., at the home of
Mr. and Mrs. L. E. Peck. Mrs. Hubby

ing a graduate of the Akron high
school in 1930.

time was enjoyed by all. The bride

Nothing less
than a six
can give you
built-in
Msioothness
*The whole question was settled
long ago—as to how many cylin
ders it takes in a motor car engine to give
satisfactory smoothness. Science definitely
established the fact that at least six are
necessary. And today, the public accepts the
multi-cylinder engine in the same way that
it accepts 4-wheel brakes, parallel-mounted
springs and every other principle of proved
and acknowledged superiority. Everybody
knows that nothing less than a six can give
you built-in smoothness.
Today, six-cylinder smoothness is within
reach of every new car buyer. For Chevrolet
has produced a quality car, powered it with a
firmly-mounted six-cylinder motor—engi
neered it to run with unsurpassed economy
—and priced it down among the very lowest
priced cars in the market.

USE NOSE TO FIND CERTAIN PENNY AMONG SIX COINS
I'lace six pennies close together on a table, select one, pass it around to
persons in (lie audience and have each person note the date on the penny,
."hen blindfold yourself and ask that the penny be placed in the group on the
table, immediately stoop over and touch the pennies with the tip of your nose
ami you will find that one coin feels warmer than the others. The warm
coin, which lias become so through being fingered by persons in the audience,
is the selected penny. Copper retains heat better than other metals, and the
nose being more sensitive than the fingers will easily detect the difference
in Hie warmth of the coins.
