WHY NOT DO THINGS’— One of the live business men of De- 1 catnr has written the Industrial As- 1 i sociatlon urging that there are many ’ things to be done which will help the < community and suggesting activity to ' tak|! care of those improvements i which are authorzied by the association. We agree with him and believe such action would prove of untold and unrealized value. Among the things I suggested were: Regular meetings at least twice' a I month. * 1 Arrange a definite 1 rogram for your I committees. i j Bm-k a movement to resurface Winchester, Mercer and Second streets as was done on EJ. Wayne street, Fort Wayne and Jefferson street in Hunt- : ington, this year. Extend ornamental lights to hos-. pital and the railroads. 1i
