"As I see in is whole \roblem of unemployment and relief, the Republican party must be sound, constructive and ever mindful of its dpty to help those who, for the moment and through no fault of their own, are unable to help themselves. The Republican party holds that the audit of the books of this country show that, under the New Deal there has been: both mismanagement and bad judgment. The important step now is to effect a change in that management so that conditions can be altered to make it possible for those who are able and willing to work, to return to their jobs. "From time to time taring this campaign I shall discuss other phases of unemployment and relief and of the several other problems of great im* port facing the country. On this occasion, however, there is issue that must not be overlooked. "I refer to the possibility of America going to war. The thought that the; United States may be embroiled iti another world conflict, is not far-; fetched. There are already forces at work seeking to plunge our country into war. Unsettled conditions in Europe, bitter civil strife in Spain, and the undeclared war between Japan and China, threaten the peace and security of the whole world. We must not be drawn into another foreign war. The Republican party* therefore, must take its place definite ly as the 'Anti-War Party* of the United States. This does not mean that we are opposed to adequate defense. But it does mean that we are most vigorously opposed to collecting and spending American tax dollars for the defense of other nations with whom the present administration may have entered into secret treaties.

Robert Wtfckard of Woodstock, who has made a practice of stealing from farmers in this vicinity for whom he had worked, returned to the Will Whiting farm once too often last week and was apprehended by police upon his return to Woodstock. Thefts of gasoline had been made at the Whiting farm several times during the past few months and the owner of the farm was suspicious of Wickard, who had formerly been employed by Whiting, from whom he had previously stolen farm products. On Friday night, Feb. 25, gasoline is stolen from the tank in the Whit-' ing yard and Saturday morning automobile tracks were plainly discernible* showing where the thief had driven in and out of the yard and also disclosing by the tire treads that the tracks had been made by practically a new car. Feeliiig sure that the thief would return again the next Friday night, Mr. Whiting's two sons, Charles and Howard, kept watch last Friday night and about 1 o'clock saw Wickard and a woman companion drive in and help themselves to gasoline. , They notified the sheriff and upon their return to their home in Woodstock, an arrest was made. Three chickens found in their car gave evidence that' they had also visited the Charles Jecks farm at Ostend, where they were in the habit of helping themselves, also. Wickard was familiar with both the Whiting* and Jecks farms, where he had been employed. ; Wickard, charged with petty hut" ceny, was held for a hearing, but bit companion was not held.

Charges--lO1^ Per bushel and your screenings baolt ; Mashes The sky makes an exeellent background for pleturea of people. But dent tilt the camera toe sharply! In the winter time, when many pictures are made Indoors, wallpaper with a pronounced pattern spoils many pictures that otherwise would be excellent. Too, la winter work outdoors, many amateurs overlook trees behind the subjoet, and obtain pictures which appear to show bare tree branches growing out of a person's head. The best backgrounds are neutral. They may range from almost white for a brightly-lighted e^sery effect, to almost black for an effect of dig* nlty or richness; but they should almost never have a vigorous pattern« or too definite a character of their Geno Drug Store. IN YOUR anapshots of people, do you ever run Into "background" trouble? That is, do the backgrounds In your pictures tend to attract more attention than the persons In themT This is the case in a great many amateur snapshots, and the reason is simple. Many snapshootera concentrate all their attention on the person or persons they are pictur lng, and forget that there Is a background. Bat the camera doesn't forget-- it obediently takes In everything at which it is pointed. The background is Just as Important as the person in a picture, and ehould receive Just as much atten tlon. Particularly does one need to take care that the background Is not obtrusive, and does not "steal the show" from the person pictured. In the summer time, the "worst of- 'fender" in backgrounds is spotty foliage, such as trees or foliage with light shining between the leaves. Backgrounds of this sort tend to show tip as itrong blaek with splotches of strong white, and prove tnite distracting. own. Outdoors, one of the best simple backgrounds is the sky. To obtain a sky background, it is necessary to use the camera fairly low and polnl it slightly upward. Do not tilt th4 camera too sharply, ualeee you want your subjects to appear to be leafr ing back. A color liter, used ovel the lens, helps to give richness depth of tone to the sky. ; - ' John vfa Qtrildsr . CHICK STARTING MAS&--With cod liver oil, per hundred - --.--.......
