BOYS' WEEK IN DECATUR, APRIL 26, MAY 2— International Boys' week will be observed in Decatur with a seven day program arranged as follows: Boys' day in churches; boys' day in schools and evening at home; boys’ days in citizenship, including the holding of city offices; boys' day in athletics; boys’day in industry; boys'loyalty and health day: boys' day out-of-doors. In defining the purpose of Hoys' week, which is sponsored here by Hie Rotary club, the schools and other citizens co-operating, the real meaning is beautifully expressed and your help i.s solicited in helping make it a big week for the boys: "Boyhood is life’s morning; it lithe time when enthusiasm is pouring through the heart like a torrent. To make his ideals tine and high, to help the boy to be strong and pure and brave, to give an upward turn to tin boy's careers—this should be the spirit and purpose of every one.” "Therefore, a week given over entirely to boys and to the consideration of their potentialities and problems is not only propaganda of the right sort but is a contribution toward-Uie ever advancing progress of civilization. “The idea of Boys' Week is to make the grownups of the nations realize better that they have their responsibilities toward boys. Then is an old saying that “B</ys will be * boys,'' but they won’t be boys if they do not have the chance and they won't get the chance unless a great deal of attention is paid to them. "Some of our boys are community risks but all boys should be the com ■nullity's livesl assets. A little more intelligent interest in world boyhood will make a big difference in the ... , > I' * • ‘‘Make the 1925 Boys' week one that will be remembered, and every succeeding Boys' week in the years ».c » win make more certain the happy and prosperous future of mankind.”

furnished in Decatur, according to the sentiment expressed at the industrial meeting last evening. However, policemen are only human and its difficult for a man to be every place 1 at once or at the scene of a hold-up when the bandits are giving orders .to “stick them up." One way to-stop . this banditry is to deal out the limit ; of the law when the offenders are i caught and make the penalty severe enough so that when they do get out ■ from behind the prison walls they’ll be too (dd to pull off another hold-up I game. In the olden times they stopI ped horse-thieving by "stringing them I up to the nearest tree,” but such dras-
tic action would not fit into the order of things now* a-days. but we do believe that 99 years in stripes is not any too good for them. Elwood Haynes, inventor of the first automobile, died at his home at Elwood last evening. He was a pub-lic-spirited citizen and was loved by fellow citizens. In less than 25 years I he saw the automobile industry grow from one little one-cylinder machine, to a place where the factories were turning out more than a million a year and a total of sixteen or seventeen million autos in the country. In another 25 years vhat will the automobile industry be? »
