s Did you know that durlug the next year there will be but eighty-ffiisht days, exclusive of Sundays, wlrnn i. some country some where iu the r world is not celebrating a holiday. ~1 Perhaps we have too many for Scot r land has only live holidays aud is tlie most thrifty iu the eutirc world. i The lAmtty has not gone to the > "bow-wows” by any means.-’ Tim [ | coming year will be a great ‘’come ' back” If we all do our part to make It. As individuals and communities ® should make every effort to get back to the prosperous condition enjoyed during the past several years. Each citizen has a responsibility. The answer is to work harder, promore, keep things moving. At the church services of the St. Mary's Catholic church in this cjty, yesterday, the sum of $1,100.85 was subscribed for gia carrf of the orphans of this diocese, an achievement worth while and splendid support of a worthy cause. The local church has always performed its full share along this line and the subscription yesterday indicates they still believe in this greatest of all charitable work. We predict they will stand well up on the list for this diocese. The "Take a Path Every Day” idea is approved by Dr. Hurty, Indiana’s state health board secretary, who says: "You may depend upon it frequent bathing will always be indulged in by clean people. The clean minded will preserve a clean body. Those who are not clean minded seem not to need clean bodies. A healthy and clean person if for any cause is prevented from keeping his body clean will suffer greatly: First, lie will suffer mentally; second, he will suffer physically." Bathing, it would seem, means much in the way of health, wealth and happiness of the American people. * Whether you are a member of the Decatur Industrial association or not, if yoh have the interests of this com- « munity at heart and want the com< ing year to be a vtfnner and not a "dead one" be sure to plan to attend the meeting at the library next Monday evening.

To those who pay during the next four weeks a fifty cent reduction will lie made, this being done that our books may be cleaned up and that we may know where we are ar for the corning year and thus be enabled to make paper contracts.

CONDITION WAS SERIOUS Simeon Moore, of Monroe, well known in this city, was operated -on Sunday for relief from appendicitis. Drs. Rayl, Somers and McKean performed the operation. Mr. Moore was taken sick Friday, and as he was some better Saturday morning, refused to have the operation at that time. Saturday night, however, the appendix ruptured, and his condition became much worse. When the. doctors operated Sunday they found that the ap pendijf contained a stone nearly onehalf inch in diameter, and this had been discharged into the abdomen when tho appendix ruptured. Mr. Moore has been a very sick man, but it is believed he will now get along all right. Hot soup and hot sandwiches; o! till kinds at the Fred and' Bill lunch room, opposite court house.
