Action will be taken soon in this matter and it would help considerably if we were included in the project. It would save this county several million dolla's. Most people would be satisfied if the cloture rule in the senate is made permanent. At least they seem to be moving and there is now a probabil- i ity that the treaty will either be ap- < proved or defeated. If the latter hap- , pens it will be the greatest crime i ever committed against this country < but even at that if the men in pow- < er are determined to do it, we might I as well know the worst. Let the cloture rule stand. The Decatur business men are ac- i tive today, efforts to organize an as- f

I sociatlou for the boosting of IndusI trial conditions in Decatur that will ! not only hustle but will have the money with which to do things. I There are numerous improvements to he made that will help conditions here and wo predict that during the next year there will be plenty of work for every good citizen who wishes to help make this a better town. Don't hunt an excuse to dodge don't lot personalities cuter into the affair. We are all for our community. Let's try pulling together once. The Adams county highway commission should not quit on their job. The fight is not over, because of the announcement that the line from Portland to this city will be recommended. There might be slips and besides this, we should 'see that the lino from here to the Wells county line Is not cut off. If Jay and Wells county is emitted to thirty-live or forty miles and Allen county to twice that amount we should be given the twenty-five miles wo arc asking and without any fight. The most important problem is that we be granted those roads which will save us the most in upkeep. In addition to this the commission should immediately start petitions to complete the road cast under the county road law. The east and west line must be built at once and if not included ou the state mail, let’s build it at once under a county petition. It can be easily done and will cost but little with a fifty million dollar valuation. Increase in prices on advertising and subscriptions for newspapers seems necessary. This has been strongly urged and advised by the

various newspaper organizations and is being done by all the larger newspapers. The small papers have had a much harder time keeping afloat during the past few years than the large papers and just at this time are having a real death struggle. There seems to be but one wuy to meet the ever increasing cost of production and that is to at least some where near keep pace with it. Wo have hoped that from some cause or other prices would adjust themselves so it would be possible to get by but indications at this time are most unfavorable. We hope the public will acquaint themselves with tho real facts and truths about the situation and will understand that we are doing everything possible to keep up to the standard, keep the cost down and continue to furnish you all the news all the time.

GIVE “JAZZ” TO AGED MAN (United Press Service) San Quentin, Cal., Nov. 18—When Antono Lapara, a handsome Italian of 29, is hanged nt the prison here on Dec. 19, the youth that has put the spring in his step and the resonance in his voice will be transferred in a measure from his dead body to the living body of one of the old men prisoners. The means employed will be the. surgeon’s knife, and the surgeon will transplant the reproductive intorsti-. tial glands of Lapara to the old man's body. This will bo the eleventh operation of this nature performed at the prison by Dr. L. L. Stanley, the prison physician, and Dr. G. Stanley Kelker his assistant. Ali of the ton previous operations have given a measure of, youth to the old men who received the glands. They have created something of a sensation iu the medical world. The old man will be chosen from a score of volunteers who have faith in the operation and desire to tap the fountain of youth The doctors believe that with the glands goes nothing of the nature that caused Lapara to commit his crime against society. Lapara is sentenced for a ulackliand murder He is a big man of great vitality,*

and the doctors are waiting with' considerable interest to see what measure of this vitality they can transfer to the body of the feebler prisoner to be chosen. Much of the faith in the operation results from the changed appearance of a prisoner known as 8.. who, daily is seen in the prison yard. 8.. is 73 years old. Before the operation he was old in every respect i His face bore deep wrinkles, and his step was feeble. He was old also in spirit. His face bore a hope-J less look, according to the other prisoners, and his figure was stooped.! Now he carries himself with assurance. und professes to have renewed youth. Many of the wrinkles have disappeared. He lias lost the timid attitude of an old man and speaks with a deep and assured voice. j ABOUT THE SICK !
