Some one wants to know what we would need jails, penal farms, work house or prisons for if we didn't have the prohibition laws to violate and automobiles to steal. Fool'sh question, ’cause we have 'em. The public service commission is having a sweet old time, straightening out all the kinks in the new law regulating bus lines in the state and issuing permits to those applicai: ■ who can meet requirements. It's a big job but the bus is hq/e to stay and must be regulated.

Decoration Day services in this city will be conducted in a simple but impressive manner. After all it depends largely on whaf is in your heart as to how -the day is observed by you and what it means. Appropriate sei vices have . been arranged and you are invited to participate. Meet at the court house before ten o'clock on the morning of the 30th, please join in the parade and attend the services. Much interest is being manifested in French Quinn's idea of moving q Elephant Rock here and dedicating it t to Mrs. Porter. A dozen suggestions came in this morning and a committee visited the old boulder this afternoon. There is fine sentiment about it for one thing and a lot of hard headed business for another.

and electric light plant and are f >hiding ageinst each other. It's a ( queer turn but the truth probably is the more money'she gets for her plant, ( he worse it will be for them, for upon , he price paid them will be based the ( ates to be later fixed by the public service commission. It sfenis that . if the city can secure sufficient to pay the indebtedness against the plant, it may be foolish to accept more and then pay h'gher rates for power and light. Are these communities wfse.to petmit a foreign company to thus secure control of them? The future will tell, but we doubt the wisdom of it. Secretary Williamson of the Northern Indiana fair, who has been here a couple of days, meeting the people and telling them of his plans and urging co-operation that will make the 1925 fair the best ever held here, believes that the only way to make a success of J.he big week is to make every department a good one. You may have a hobby on poultry, another tray be devoting his time to beets, potatoes, corn, hay or some other product of\he farm and still others may feel that races or features or the ti ght program or something else is the biggest part of a fair and so to please everyone. Mr. Williamson makes each department the best. We hive heard excellent ieports from the meeting at Berne and the Rotary session, at each of which he said “howdy” and we feel sure that before he 1.; through he will have impressed every citizen in the county with the fact that the way to have a real fair is for every one of the 25,000 people in the county to help do it. Fifty young men and women will . tonight receive diplomas from the 1 Decatur High School and will step out to win success and to wrest it if need be from the world. And you • can do it boys and girls if you fcut ■ continue your efforts. Remember
