YES, WE NEEDED A GOOD LAUGH
FOLLOWING THAT CAMPAIGN!
Wednesday when Chief of Police C. P. Talent and
Bert Miller settled an election bet with a ride down the
main stem while hundreds of folks watched and
laughed, they performed an American service. One of
our greatest national virtues is our sense of humor,
and the stalwart partisans used it to heal the breach
made by politics.
Following their humorous payoff, doubtless many
citizens for the first time saw the funny side of election
arguments and forgot about the “hatreds” they
thought had been developed. Old friends, divided by
politics, found it easier to speak again.

TWO MOST IMPORTANT POSTS—ONE NATIONAL,
ONE LOCAL—ARE MOST ABLY FILLED!
Although The Miner is not going to lay claim to
having exerted political influence during the campaign,
it does derive considerable satisfaction from having
believed with the majority again.
The Miner has never “lost” an election from the
first year of its existence when it was the only news­
paper in Jackson county supporting Roosevelt in 1932
and forecasting his election.
Two issues were of greatest interest to us—the re­
election of Roosevelt to the presidency, and the election
of H. K. (Herb) Hanna as circuit judge. Partisanship
influenced neither choice and for that reason the out­
come was even more appreciated. Roosevelt, we have
steadfastly believed, is one of the great men of our
history, while Hanna, a friend of some years, we believe
to be unusually well prepared for the circuit judgeship.
The Miner is both happy and proud to have done
what it could to support these winners. Although the
nagging of the President probably will resume as soon
as the post-election flag waving is done, we feel he will
do all any human can for his country. Hanna, wre know,
will bring to the bench of this judicial district all the
dignity and intelligence the circuit court demands.
Tuesday was a good day for good men.

SHADES OF THE LITERARY DIGEST!
Rivaling the ignominous defeat of Wendell Willkie
Tuesday was the emphatic repudiation of the “leader­
ship” of that 85 per cent of the American daily press
which proved unable either to lead or follow. As a
molder of public opinion, the pompous publishers of the
land now can take their place with the famous Literary
Digest.
Perhaps the most striking examples of blind, stupid
partisanship were to be seen here in Jackson county,
where the two daily papers, vain in their self esteem,
were unable even to gauge the temper and conviction
of their own employes. Their weeks of carping criticism
and years of nagging of the President now stand
clearly in all its shortsighted, poison-tongued ugliness.
The American people are thinking, and editors who
would keep abreast of them will have to think, too.
The Miner apologizes for the bad behavior of its “big
brothers” in the business.
Defeat, for them, would be but half so bitter if they
could say they fought a clean fight. They are to be
pitied as well as tolerated.

Why a Pre-Arranged Funeral?
ELEVENTH—To the Head of the Family: Some choose
to embody the matter of funeral arrangements into a
will. It must be remembered that many times the will
is not opened until after the funeral service is over and
any arrangement it may contain is of little or no value.

grade bad a Halloween party
Thursday, Oct. 31, at 2:30 o’clock.

children especially enjoyed the
"Spinning Song." She played very
nicely and everyone liked her
music.
The fourth grade of Lincoln
school had a Halloween party
Thursday, Oct. 31. They had Betty

named "Old Witch Wimpie” and
Betty Rykken’s was "Halloween."
The children enjoyed their poems
very much.
The fourth grade of Lincoln

Salo; Kinky, Biuce Smith; Winky,
Edward Morrows; Blinky, Allen

fourth grade, directed the play.
Donald Kerr, Rosemary Knott,
and Mary Layton were the host
and hostesses at the Halloween
party that the fourth grade chil­

They had lots of fun playing bin-

The refreshment committee of

Mrs. Payne a thank-you letter and
tell her how much they liked her
treat.
After the fourth grade party
was over the clean-up committee
cleaned the room for the next day.
They arranged the seats in their
right places and swept the floor.
Then they had the room ready for
the next day.' The names of the
children on the clean-up committee
were John Beare, Nancy Beers,

received 53 and Aiken had one.
On Monday, Nov. 4, the Lincoln

charts. These charts are to be used

over carefully and then took them
home to their parents.
The sixth grade challenged Miss

shown in their room. The names
of the films were Astronomer’s

They were interesting films and
the class learned a number <>f
