AN ELKS HOME:— By a unanimous vote the Decatdr lodge of the Benevolent Order of Elks last night voted to purchase the Schafer home oft north Second street and to convert it into a lodge room and home for the use of the members of that great order. Atta, boy, Bill. It pays to he pro- • gressive and to do big things. The wonderful home is splendidly locateded and with slight alterations will be made the most attractive place of its kind in the middle west. The grounds covering an entire half block are beautiful, with drives and benches and flowers and trees and tennis court. The big old fashioned house can be arranged to take care of every want of the lodge and provide man;, happy hours for members of the ord er and their families and friends. The local lodge is recognized so their charitable deeds and for then good fellowship. Composed of more than .two hundred members and witl. an opportunity to soon offer attrae tions which should double that num her. the lodge has a great opportunity 4> stand for those things which est help a community and make sot happiness. We congratulate the ledg< on their decision and commend them for their spirit of progressiveness.

« — ______ R. O. Johnson, former mayor ot Gary, and thirty other citizens of that place have been ordered imprisoned. We do not know any of the defendants excepting Mr. Johnson who was reared in this county and whost successful career has been watched with much interest. His Adams county friends do not believe he wa a party to a conspiracy and the fact that thousands of citizens of~_Gary are already petitioning for his par don indicates he stands well there. Hartford City is reorganizing thoj chamber of commerce with a pah Secretary and they will put it over That is one of the few Indiana town stepping forward this year and tin new commercial organization wil help in many ways. We believe it all sincerity that the best thing De catur could do as a community would be to employ a man of ability to work ten hours a day for those thing:, which are every body’s business and yet nobody's.

Clean up week not only makes a town look better, but makes for bet 'ter health, for the cleaner we are. the f?eer from disease. And there i i another big reason for making this job complete and that is that it reduces fire hazard. Many fires originate in the old pile of dirt, rags, paper, oil and grease in the qellar, attic, garage or wherever it may be. —...i.i Vote at the primary.

tare. The rains and inc warm weather and the growing conditions have been about as near perfect aj you could order it. Be a regular fellow. Help make clean up week the biggest and best his year it h\s ever been. Get the rubbish gathered np during the next ten days and be ready for the city wagons which will gather it the week of May 4th. Decatur is the best town in the middles west, we are informed by those who vfsit them all. We can make it better by putting over a fewsensible ideas. Why don’t you suggest some things that ought to be done and see if we can’t do them'.’ Some how or other we just feel that this is to be oneyof those summers when we will need another story or two on the thermometer to keep the mercury from popping from the top, but we can’t guarantee it. o I Big Features Os ?

II h'W- I FOR TEN YEARS “World’s Greatest Buy Everyone Says It —Sales Prove It It is only as you find the real comparisons for Hudsor pialiHes among the costliest cars that the enormous different* in price is so astonishing. Today it offers the greatest price advantage and finest quality in Hudson history. Never was this supremacy of value so outstanding. And the greatest Hudson sales on record show how complete is public knowledge of the facts. Is There Any Reason to Pay More 11 ?

Hudson’sposition as the “ World’s Greatest Buy” is not merely a new attainment. Itisacknowkdgment of ten years’ refinement of a great car around the famous patented Super-Six principle. No motor design, however costly, has been found to displace this long-time leadership of the exclusive Super-Six. Its simplicity has always meant a lower selling price than is permitted in complicated types.
