Elections Do Not Decide
Clear Cut Issues
Tlae campaign and election just
past did not definitely settle an)'
great principles of government.
Under the present two party po-
litical set up in this country it is
difficult for an election to do that.
National issues were not as great
factors in tile election as they
would have been in a presidential
election. More elections were de-
cided on local issues than anything
else.
In general the ins have defended
the state and national record of the
new deal regardless of how craz,
it was at places and the outs, ms a
rule, have condemned the work of
the new deal irrespective of what
merit there might be in it. Tom
Dewey in New York and Robert
Taft in Ohio were exceptions and
may indicate a coming new type o;
leadership for the Republican
party.
Democrats in congress seldom
fail to favor as high a tariff fo~
products from their own district as
do Republicans. During the si:
years of Democrat control the high
tariffs are still in existence. This
is cited as an example of old is-
sues not meaning a great deal any
more.
The history of the Republican
and Democratic parties, running
,back to the civil war, with the sec-
tional differences which seem un-
avoidable, make it impossible to
get a clear cut difference on na-
tional issues. A liberal Republican
in one state may be more progres-
sive than a conservative Democral
In a southern state. A sharper di-
vision between liberals and con-
servatives is needed in this country
to bring about the best division of
parties.
It Is A Different Matter
When the Tables Are Turned
Although the election is past th:
Dies committee offers an observa-
tion worthy of consideration.
Congressional investigations, not-
ably the subpoening of private tele-
grams by Hugh Black when in the
senate, have been marked by their :
unfairness and refusal to abide by
the usual rules of a court room. :
When a statement about Gov-
ernor Murphy's conduct during the
sit down strikes in Detroit being
"treasonable" was heard in the
Dies investigation, the President re-
acted like the average business
man during the other Investiga-
tions, and indignantly condemned
the committee. The statement in
question was strictly a matter of
opinion, although many people in
;Michigan are of the same opinion,
it was not a fact statement as such,
and would not bc admissable in a
court room.
The statement was not one iota
more unfair than many statements
made about private citizens during
the other senatorial inquisitions.
The conclusions would seem to
:be: The administration likes to
dish it out--but It can't take it.
PICK U1) THOSE FT;ET
There is no more thankless job
than taking an active interest in
local affairs and helping to put over
community efforts. Ahvays there
is petty jealousy, ill feeling because
cause interest means leadership.
and we have noticed that people
who are unwilling to pay the price
of hard work for the common good
are the first to criticize, and tho
most persistent belittlers of all. If
one cannot do the job better, he
should get behind the effort and
push. Coat-tailers shouldn't drag
their feet. --Polls Ctwonicle.

~IOMECOMING !
Hear Ye! Hear Ye! and Come

tend Homecoming to all alumni

FHE PICKLE ]~IYSTE~Y
Contrary to the popular belief
(probably conceived from too many
Sherlock Holmes murder thrillers)
that all mysteries originate on a
'dark stormy night as the wind
whistled shrilly through the cracks
of tbe deserted house", the setting
'or this one was a pleasant, nippy,
fall day, a typical day for a good,
• ousing football game.
Despondency, fright, even agony,
ad siezed M.V.H.S. for "Pickle,"
he "Pickle," had disappeared, van-
:shed, you might even say, evapor-
ated. This would have been a
atastrophe at any time, but then,
[hen of all times, when the Home-
oming game was slated for the
ext day, it was a super-tragedy.
The last view M.V.H.S. had had
)f the invincible athlete was as he
;waggcred majestically from Eng-
• ish Lit., (after coming in ahead of
he seniors on the home stretch of
t big test), supposedly headed for
,is Latin class at the college.
His absence was first not~,d, his
arents reported, when he didn't
!~how up at the table at the first
troke of the dinner gong. His
along with Moosie and Chuck giv-
ing vent to school yells to keep up
the morale (nerve, to you).
Suddenly Teenie gave forth a
squeal, "Hey, boys, I bet tile other
team has kidnapped "Pickle" until
after the game. They know we
can't hope to win without him."
Immediately, Dave swung the
car around and headed for the
opponent's town.
When Dave, Chuck, Moosie. and
Tiny arrived in "Podunk," (so we
shall call the opponents' town)
they charged upon the school, dis-
rupting all classes and causing
genuine pandemonium. They shout-
ed loudly and fiercely (probably
in hopes of scaring the others from
accepting the challenge) that they
had come to get Pickle and if anv-
one tried to stop them, they'd bash
his head in, and his jaw too.
The opponents swore that thev
had such super-wonderful players
of their own, that they had no use
whatsover for Pickle, in fact, they
rashly added, they wouldn't have
him, or any other Mount Vernon
guy, as a gift.
At this, our boys went to work.
They "smeared" every fellow in
sight, and Moosie accidentally land-
ed a neat one on the superintend-
cat's nose (it did stick out too
far).
After messing the fellows up, our
~talwart knights hastened home be-
cause Dave was in training for the
Ram e.
Regardless of the fact that the
sun was shining brightly the next
day dawned dark and dreary for
M.V.H.S.
At 2:00 in the afternoon, the stu-
dents disheartedly dragged them-
~elves out to Ash Park.
The M.V.H.S. team fought val-
iantly, but the "Podunk" team
took the lead, nevertheless.
"Babe" Snyder was doing sorne
spectacular playing in the grand-
stand. "Lovey" Travis said later,
she thought Genevieve was going
to pound a hole in her back. How-
ever, we're sure the boys were
much heartened by "Babe's" co-
operation.
At the end of the first half,
things looked pretty dark for M.V.
H.S. for "Podunk" was leading
21 to 0.
The team was despondently get-
ting ready for the last half of the
game, when they heard a shrill
swish, as of a bullet fired from a
cannon, and behold, there was
Pickle in the family limousine.
Instantly, he was surrounded by
the team and the homecoming
rrowd. Rapid fire questions were
shot at him. Meanwhile, Pickle
was taking something from a bas-
ket he had beside him. He held up
a wildly gesticulating monkey.
Proudly holding the monkey,
Pickle began to unravel the myst-
cry of his whereabouts for the past
two days. "Well y'see it was this
way. I figured homecoming Just
wouldn't be homecoming if we
didn't have a mascot, so I set out
ire find one. I thought a "doodle-
bug" would be just the sort of mas-
cot we wanted, but I couldn't find
one any place. I went to every
farm, every creek or woods and
every zoo within a radius of fifty

~olks were overcome immediately
bv anxiety and fear, for never, in
~11 of "Pickle's" sixteen years had
,e ever failed to slide into home
base at the table in the lead of i
',he rest of the family.
The authorities were notifi-d,
~nd set out Immediately looking
"or clues, but, calling a rousing pep
neetin, decided on a plan of action.
Superintendent Llndsley dissolv-
ed in fears and tears, stated that
the first student locating the where-
~,bouts of the vanished lad, should
be rewarded with a great big ice
.-ream cone which he could eat be-
fore the less fortunate students.
After a few yells under the sup-
crvision of "Chuck," "Tish." and
Moosie", and with the thought of
the magniflcient reward awaiting.
the student body flocked out to the
starting point, and at the sound of
the referee's gun, Was Off to a fast
start.
The Campfire girls, dressed in
their middies and skirts and brand-
ishing their axes before them, took
the lead immediately, with Miss
Gump heading the group to cheer
it on to victory. (The only thought
that worried them, was how many
licks there would be on the ice
ream cone.)
With their war cries echoing
clown main street, the "Bonfiro
Babies" leaped into and onto Ber-
"tack's car, and with Tish at the
wheel, they careened madl-
through town and were half way to
Cedar Rapids before the slower
members of M.V.H.S. were under
way.
But not to be out done. Dave.
"Chuck", "Moosie", and "T~enie"
put the spurs to Dave's V-8 and
:tatted out in hot pursuit.
The Campfire girls had automa-
rustically headed for Cedar Rapids,
because they had very logically de-
cided that ew~ry really "worth-
while" mystery originated in a
elty.
They struck C.R. going full speed
and were still keeping up the pace.
when they heard the shriek of
sirens behind them. Instantly
"Brooksie" with her rapid fire de-
cision and thinking, trilled, "Oh.
girls' Isn't it sweet of them, getting
out a parade and a motorcycle es-
cort just for us?"
"Yeah," Tish snapped, "but they
want us to pay for this escort."
You see, Tish had encountered this
sort of thing before, and conse-
quently she was slightly disillusion-
ed and skeptical.
Tish pulled over to the curb, and
b-gan taking her old technique out
of moth bails. As the cop ((hadn't
you guessed yet?) drew beside the
car, she gave the other girls their
cue, "Oh, officer, what a perfectly
darling outfit, and you have just
the right physique for it. Look,
would you mind telling me where
;ou bought it; I'm going to a
masquerade and--", with that the
clamor began, and shortly the cop
withdrew, finding himself no
match for the Takonte Campfire
Group.
The girls then disbanded, each
going her way to see if some big,
bad man had "conked" the bold

It was needless to say, that with
Pickle back in the game, the Mt.
Vernon team regained now pep and
beat Dodunk to such an extent that
they refuse to play Mount Vernon
next year.
Since that was the last game of
the season, "Pickle" was allowed
to break training and eat the ice

ward.
THE FOE'S CAMP
The following article was sub-
mitted at the request of the Chalk
Mark staff by Theresa Farley, edi-
tor of the Marion school paper,
Vex:
The .Marion football team has
won four, lost two, and tied one
game so far this season. That the
hard work of an industrious squad
~u~d Coa:.hc,~ t'o :::~:=n and Miller
has not been in vain, i,~ shown by an
exceptionally well balanced team
witt~ a fa:t backfield and a hard
charging Fne. The Team, though
somewhat weakened by injuries to
sever~tl members, won the Tri-Val-
Icy Conference till.~ by defeating
Independence, Vinton and Man-
hester.
School will be dismissed at noon
November ]l, SO Marion students
will be free to atteud the game. A
good number will probably take
:~dvantage of this chance to see a
grand game.
1'O AUTUMN
The golden rod is nodding
Along the road to town;
The stately trees are standing
With leaves all turning brown.
The brown eyed-susans nod at me
And seem to smile and say,
The autumn time is coming
Not very far away."
The autumn winds are whispering
Amidst the rustling corn,
The crickets in the tall grass
Are chirping all night long.
And nature seems awaiting
Jack Frost's first visit here,
For autumn time is his time,
The harvest of the year.

Millions of users feel that they get quicker, more pleas-

other single item in the average drug store.

Gas on Stomach, Sour Stomach, Headache, Colds,
"Morning A#er," Muscular Pains, and as a Gargle
in Minor Throat Irritations.
We really mean it.
Use ALKA-SELTZER for any or all of these discom-
forts, Your money back if it fails to relieve.
In addition to an analgesic (Acetyl-Salicylate
of Soda), each glass of ALKA-SELTZER
contains alkalizers which help to
correct those everyday ailments
due to Hyper-Acidity.
