Found in the Search for Something New —and dedicated to wrist watch safety and convenience— the Krementz Band. Not alone new, but very, very practical. It passes the old prong-buckle strap arrange- ment to the discard. Instead, the Krementz Band has three expand- ing links, opening sufficiently to allow passage of watch on or off, right over the hand; or up on the forearm when washing hands, Also contracts down to snug wrist size. With a wrist watch carried on a Krementz Band, gone is the fear of dropping or losing it—handy is the operation of putting on or remov- ing it. Ask your jeweler or write us. Sold in gold plated casings with leather or flexible Milanaise mesh bands— $7.50 to $15; also solid 14 kt. or 18 kt. gold and solid platinum casings, KREMENTZ & CO., Newark, N. J. Whea completely ex- panded there is ample allowance for free passage over hand or up on forearm. WRIST WATCH v BAND V A MINISTER DEFINES THE RELIGIOUS ISSUE To tne Eprtor oF Lire. Sir: I am heartily in sympathy with Lire’s fight to rid politics of bunk. And there's a lot of bunk being strewn today that I want you to speak against, cither by publishing this letter, or by putting the idea in your own words. Nearly every politician that has taken the stump is having something to say about the ministers of the country trying to put religion into politics, I’m a min- ister. And as a minister I think that I can speak with more authority concerning my profession than any stump speaker in this country. And I will tell the world that we are not half so interested in get- ting religion into politics as we are in getting a little religion into some of our politicians. Mr. Editor, according to my opinion, if those politicians who are raving so much about religion in politics were members of the Bunkless Party, they would go before the electorate and say, “You know me well enough to know that I haven't religion enough to be bothered with a religious issue.” Something else. There’s a cry in the air that politics is rotten. According to my humble opinion people should get that idea out of their heads. Politics is not rotten. It’s the politicians that cause the offensive odor. Yours for the eradication of bunk, Herman Wittiam Forses. Fort Pierce, Fra. WE'RE BRIBED BY DEMOCRATIC GOLD To tHe Eprtor oF Lire. Sir: Kindly cancel my subscription to your magazine, and return whatever re- fund is due me. I subscribed to your magazine some time ago because it con- tained humor and was at that time non- partisan in all of its cartoons. It freely criticized, in a humorous way, all pop- ular topics and individuals. However, for some time back, you have been purely Democratic, and have almost weekly printed pictures or cartoons that were di- rect slurs on the Republican party. In fact you have gone so far as to devote an entire editorial to criticizing Mr. Herbert Hoover, in this week's issue. This of course may be paid advertising, or, I sup- pose, being in a Democratic city you are obliged to follow the dictates of this party, but it seems such a small thing to do, and in fairness to other Republican readers you should confine the circulation of your Just a Few Hours* to Good Times It's just overnight to an In- dian summer that lasts all winter long . . . to golden days of golf and outdoor Sport... to perfect, bracing climate . . . where dee; draughts of pine-scented air are a daily tonic.
