What A Former Republican
Governor Say of Roosevelt
Why a former Republican should
continue to support President Roose
velt \vn explained in a letter to a
friend by John H. Bartlett, former
Rep- blican rnor of New Hamp
shire. if
“My answer to your inquiry,” he
wrote, “is that in these days, be
cause it has heroine more and more
a question of the man, I mean of
course th character, sympathies,
1-r: iw and pei -unal sincerity and
pun • -es i ■ the candidate himself, I
must stand steadfastly for the re
<■ c : ,>n of I*i esident Roosevelt.
‘ Hi- 1. ti-t , right toward the wel
fare of the nit es of the people of
!’ii- country and he has the courage
of his convictions.
“Presidi tit Roosevelt has demon
strat'd that he neither loves nor
fear tin 'lnvisible Government,'
the name Theodore Roosevelt years
ago grave to thut powerful alliance
of ‘mail factors of great wealth’ who
seek to and" ninate our government.
And In i determined that they shall
be controlled and taxes! sufficiently
to pri erve the general welfare.
“On this score I can see no chance
for the Republican party putting: up
a man whom I think could be any
where near as good for the people
a- Kianklin D. Roosevelt. ‘The In
visible Government,’ througrh its
power which has its switchboard cen
t r in Wall Street, have decide:! they
can never control President Roose
velt. i fiat fact throws their influ
ence automatically to the Republi
can party.
“Some of the President’s experi
ments were not fully successful but
be dared and tried and I positively
believe revolution was averted by his
quick and daring’ action. Here are
some of the outstanding results of
bis experiments that ARK success
ful:
"Inaugurated old age pensions,
unemployment insurance and other
social justice reforms which the Re
publican party neglected during its
entire regime.
“Guaranteed the safety of the peo
ple’s bank deposits.
“Put a legal check nationally on
selling worthless stocks and bonds,
prevent!.!;, men like lnsull from rob
bing the public through stock-pro
niotion corporations.
“Showed up in investigations the]
out ragcously large salaries, bonuses
and gr: f: by which members of the
‘lnvisible Government’ at the head
of large corporations and banks
fleered their stockholders and cus
tomers.
“Aided states, counties and cities
,a caring for the poor and giving
woik to the unemployed, thus easing
local taxation.
“Aided banks and building and
loan asso iutions and private firms
with loans.
“Built more needed public build
ings and more roads than any ad
ministration in the history of the
country.
“Prevented a million home fore
closures and saved another million
farms from the same menace.
“Restored living prices to farm
ers.
“Saved a million and a half hoys
from the streets with jobs in CCC
camps.
"Reformed banking system of the
country, saved our gold supply and '■
maintained the soundest currency in
the world.
“Did a sensational job to extermi
nate gunmen and decrease the cost
of protection insurance.
“Strengthened and modernized our
neutrality law to preclude our be
coming involved in other people’s
wars.
"While the national debt was in
cron id seven and a half billion dol
lar-. the value of all property under
Ro ■ < volt was increased many times
that sum and imminent starvation
was prevented. Under Mr. Hoover
the national debt was increased more
than five billions, yet the value of
all property dec.-eased many times
that sum.
“This letter is enough to satisfy
my own conscience and that is the
extent of my personal responsibili
ty."
If we would all agree to read a
chapter in the New Testament each
day and put into our living the prin
ciples presented in this, the best of
all books, we would in a short time
have the whole world throbbing
with the power of a great religious
awakening.—J. Wilbur Chapman.

PRISONER WHO “DIED" IN
JAIL LEAVES UNDERTAKERS
PLACE DURING THE NIGHT
(From Dawson, Ga., News)
Rip Cooledge, local colored under
taker, received the shock of his life
Friday morning when he opened his
place of business and began prepar
ations for the burial of I). Holley,
young negro, whose supposedly dead
body he hail removed from the Ter
rel county jail the night before.
The receptacle which had contained
the “remains" was empty and the
hack door of the mortuary was open,
mute evidence thut the "corpse”
had fled. The sheet which wrapped
the body and a suit of eothes be
longing to the undertaker also were
missing.
Holley was lodged in jail several
days prior to hi- “death” for the
theft of a bicycle. A fellow prison
er gave an alarm and reported him
dead about nine o’clock Thursday
night. Deputy Sheriff Raymond
Turner called the undertaker, who,
after examining the supposed corpse,
placed it in a basket and removed
it to his establishment to await
burial Saturday.
The undertaker's consternation was
beyond expression next morning
when he found that the “dead”
prisoner had departed during th
night.
Should anyone meet a corpse
rambling around, it is requested that
the sheriff be notified. Saturday,
however, someone who said he was
St. Refer called the sheriff and said
if the “dead” prisoner was wanted
he was there.
Holley is subject to “spells” and
frequently goes into a trance, dur
ing which he becomes cold and has
every appearance of being dead.
STARS ARE SO BEAUTIFUL
A strange surprising gladness stirs
my heart
At night—when heaven’s first
lights—dim ami far—
Swing in the dusk -and each one
suddenly—
Becomes the silver wonder of a
star.
Becomes a shining splendor on the
hills—
Unfailing, steadfast, calm and high
and white—
Star, are so beautiful so steeped in
peace—
They rest me more than anything
at night.
There is an ancient comfort in the
stars:
I treasure it—“ Lift up your eyes
and see,”
"He calleth them by name—not one
hath failed . . .”
0, often through the stars—God
comforts me.
—Grace Noll Crowell.

A CARD TO THE CITIZENS OF
JACKSON COUNTY
It is rumored that I am to be the
Deputy Sheriff to Curtis H. Collier

Owing to my farming and other
business interests, I could not ac
cept this position if tendered me by
Mr. Collier, or any other candidate.
So I desire to inform the voters of
the county in order that they may
be set right on this matter. —That
I will not serve as Deputy Sheriff.
Respectfully,
E. L. Smallwood.

HIGH SCHOOL GIRL GETS
STAR ROLE IN FIRST FILM
Eighteen-year-old Betty Burgess,
as fresh and inspiring as a spring
breeze blowing across green pas
tures, never had seen a motion pic
ture camera before she arrived at
the Paramount studios to take the
feminine lead in the new musical,
“Coronado,” which comes to the
Roosevelt Theatre on Tuesday und
Wednesday.
Betty was taken from her classes
in high school at Los Angeles to be
starred in “Coronado.” Endowed
with all the requisites that go to
make up an ideal entertainer, she re
mains a very serious young lady,
thoroughly wrapped up in her avo
cation, which is painting.
At the Paramount studios, where
William Leßaron had decided to pro
duce “Coronado” with Eddy Duchin
and his orchestra, one of those film
“searches” was in progress. More
than forty prospects had been tried
out for the role of June Wray, who
has to sing and dance as an enter
tainer with Duchin’s band, and who
has to act as well. These candidates
included five Baby Wampus stars,
hut somehow they just didn’t click.
With Betty Burgess it was a horse
of a different hue. She was signed
up immediately and her work in
“Coronado” opposite young Johnny
Downs brought a unanimous vote in
the studio as being “brilliant.’
“In addition to Miss Burgess and
Johnny, the cast includes such note
worthy players as Jack Haley, Andy
Devine, Leon Errol and Alice White.
A little cornstarch added to the
salt in the salt cellar will prevent
hardening. Proportions are half a
teaspoon of cornstarch to two table
spoons of salt.

Women should take only

Many believe any laxative they
might take only makes constipation
worse. And that isn’t true.
Do what doctors do to relieve
this condition. They use a liquid

laxative, and keep reducing the
dose until the bowels need no help
at all.
Reduced dosage is the secret of
aiding Nature in restoring regularity.
You must use a little less laxative
each time, and that’s why your laxa
tive should be in liquid form. A liquid
dose can be regulated to the drop.
The liquid laxative generally used
is Dr. Caldwell’s Syrup Pepsin. It
contains senna and cascara both
natural laxatives that form no habit
even with children. Syrup Pepsin is
the nicest tasting, nicest acting laxa

GEM’S FROM KAGAWA’S
PHILOSOPHY
Laws should result from the cus
toms of the people—not customs
from laws.
I wish we (Japan) could be a
Christian nation, like Norway, Swed
en and Denmark. I wish we would
not fight.
Man’s greatest temptation in
youth is sex; middle-age, money,
and in old age, power.
Churches have reduced the Gospel
to a doctrine—to me it is a life.
Some people doubt whether God is
love. God is love.
Love is the creation, preservation
and restoration of society.
A Baker county citizen lost his
fox hounds and ran an advertisement
to that effect in the local newspaper.
Soon after the newspaper was out
the dogs swam the Flint river and
returned, which goes to show you
can’t even fool a dog about rvhat
newspaper advertising will do.
