All know how ban ■b, weakened battery will have U fW I; to turn over the motor with it! stiffened oil. If the starter turns thf BOtor at all It will be far below th« normal starting speed and the engim leldom starts with the first explosion Herr, briefly is the explanation of th< troubles: i The low cranking speed, whirl Is caused by lowered battery capacity toJ stiffened oil. i J. Weakened ignition current due to the excessive demand on the bat tery. 3. Poor rarburetion due to the slow smoking speed of the engine. These are the three primary causes of hard cold weather starting and hert area few suggestions from Purdue tr help start the balky engine: 1. Use a lighter oil that will not gel stiff in the cold weather. 3. Drain the radiat-or and fill with hot weather. , 3. Keep the battery fully charged, t. Use high test gasoline. 5.

that the first covered bridge to lie erecteil in Hit' state was constructed at Dublin, Indiana, fn 1834. This bridge was razed just one year ago but the old ahuttnlonts, of lynlford limestone, apparently hauled 16ft miles -overland by oxen are still to be seen Although the covered bridge is not peculiar to Indiana it is believed that this state had more of the structures than any other slate, because of tlie plentiful supply of timber in the proceeding century. Two of the best preserved covered bridges in Indiana today nre located at Connersville and Rushville. The Ruschville bridge, it was said, is peculiar in thal it has a fenced-in pathway for pedestrians on either side of the roadway . What is probably the longest covered bridge in the state Is located at Matamora, a small town in Eastern Indiana, it was pointed out. Q Season For Fur-bearing Animals Closes Feb. 10 The season for lawfully taking furbearing animals closes on February ltt, and according to the law it is unlawful to possess any protected fur-bearing animals after that date and up to November 10, except such animals for breeding purposes. No animals, however, can l»e taken alive for this or any purpose during the closed season. Persons holding protected fur animals after February 10 must be registered in the office of the division of fish and game, state conservation department, under a certificate of inspection, costing $5. por annum. To secure a certificate of inspection the first step is to send for the reuglation and application blank. One certiflcaate covers fur animals of all kinds, and also includes game birds. George N. Mannfeld. superintendent of the division, reports December arrests for fish and game law violatiohs as 121 with 113 c convictions and six cases dismissed. Fines and costs in this connection amounted to $2.2905. The two leading offenses were HS convictions for hunting and fishing without a license, and 16 for hunting on Sunday.

Lesson for February 7 JESUS HEALS AND SAVES A BUND MAN LESSON TEXT—John GOLDEN TEXT—-1 am th, light Os the world, he that followeth Me *hall not walk In darknes,. but .hall hav. tho light of Ilf*."—John I 1* PRIMARY TOPIC—Ib. Blind Man Made to See. JUNIOR TOPIC —Je.ua Holpa a Blind Man. INTERMEDIATE AND SENIOR TOPIC—What Jesus Did for the Blind Man. YOUNG PEOPLE AND ADULT TOPIC—Je.u. Christ the Light of the World. I. Working the Works of God While It Is Day (vv. 1-5). 1. The Disciples’ Problem (vv. 1,2). In their minds all affliction, negative and positive, was God s retribution for Siu. Therefore, they argued that tlds man’s blindness proved his siu. They recognized, too, that the effect of sin Is sometimes hereditary. No doubt they Inferred this from the secoud commandment (Ex. 20:5). The implication. is that they held the view that men have a pre-existence, and that suffering in this life may be the result of sins committed In that pre-existent stute. 2. The Lord’s Answer (vv. 3-5). The Lord affirmed that In this case there was neither sin on the man’s part, nor that of his parents, but that it was an occasion for the display of the wurks of God and that He bad come to execute this task while It wus day, because the night would come when no man could work. Since Christ is the light of the world, the task which challenged His attention was the opening of this man’s eyes. The purpose of Jesus in working miracles was not a mere exhibition of miraculous power, but “to illustrate in the physical sphere His power in the spir itual sphere.” This man’s absolute helplessness In bettering bis physical condition is illustrative o.f man’s utter helplessness in the salvation of his own soul. The natural man Is blind and (lead (II Cor. 4:4; Eph. 2:1). God by His spirit must quicken the soul dead In trespasses and sin before it can see to take hold on Christ, the remedy for sin. 11. The Man’s Eyes Opened (vv. 6,7). 1. The Means. Jesus spat on the ground and made clay of the spittle and anointed his eyes. Observe that the means used in this miracle were little less than foolish In themselves. The object must have been to teach this man the utter Inadequacy of the means to the accomplishment of ihe end, that be might be caused to look from the means to the Due who used them, that lie might he convinced that the power was of God. 2. His Obedience (v. 7). He immediately obeyed. He did not stop to question the reasonableness of the command. 111. The Man’s Testimony (vv. 830). In bis testimony we have a flue example of the development of faith. The opening of tills man’s eyes aroused Inquiry among his neighbors. When a man’s spiritual eyes are opened, thorn will be a stir among his friends. 1. He Testified to His Personal Identity (v. 9). This was very easy. His self-consciousness enabled him to know that he was the same man who was born blind. 2. He Testified as to How It Was Done (vv. 11-15). So definite was bis experience that he was able to tell just bow it was done. When he repeated it there was no conflict. 3. He Testified That the One Who Opened His Eyes Was a Prophet (v. 17). 4. He Testified That This Healer No Doubt Was Sent of God (vv.3o-33). He declared that He was the greatest worker of miracles who had appeared since the world began. 5. He worshiped Him as the Son of God (v. 38). IV. The Result* of His Confession. 1. As to the People, They Were Divided in Sentiment (v. 16). Some believed He was from God because of His works, others that He was a sinner because He did His work on tile Sabbath day. 2. As to the Man, They Cast Him Out (v. 34). Faithful testimony will often result In ostracism from even religious people. 3. As to Jesus, He Found the Man (v. 35). Being cast out by men he found himself in the arms of Jesus. It is quite often true that separation from human fellowship results in more vital fellowship with Jesus. He was led on to a deeper faith. He first saw > Him as a miracle worker, then as a ; prophet and finally as the Son of God I ' u nd when he perceived Him to be the j Son of God, he worshiped Him. f ’ ; Religion ■ Religion, in its purity, Is not so mneh i a pursuit as a temper; or rather it Is j a temper, leading to the pursuit of all j that is high and holy. Its founds , tion is faith ; its action, works; Its tem- | per, holiness; Its aim, obedience to God | in Improvement of self and benevo- ! lence to men.-—Tryon Edwards.

SAYS DECATUR CAN BE MADE A CITY OF 10,000 PERSONS ifovTUit rn mow p\or one* will take over the road from the State Line to Huntington, placing us on a Federal Coast to Coast Highway. Mr. Ixiwer has been assisted by Mr. Heller and Mr. Vance and this committee has been functioning In a most gratifying manner. "State Road 21 has been widened and paved north of Decatur and contrary to our fears, seems to he an excellent road. It is only a question of time until Road 21 will he paved from Riehmonil to the .Michigan Slate lane. Plans are now on foot to make part of this road the most beautiful highway in the state. We might mention that we assisted in straightening out tlie road north of Monroe. "We are promised that in ease any Post Office Bill went through, we were to be Included ill the appropriation, j Many letters have given this promise. "Some time ago the Nlckle Plate Railroad completed their stock yards, which will give us a sanitary place to load the farmers’ stock. So there should he no further trouble along this line. "Decatur is proud of what she has done, hut this is history. It is now a question of what she will do. We have a population of about 5.500. What we want is a city of 10,000. Nothing but selfishness can prevent our reaching that goal. We can plan to add 500 people per year ami industries to bring these 600 people. The Fort Wayne papers say that the General Electric will build additional plants in- Fort

Different fuifoiles have said they wanted to come to Decatur, most of these Inquiries were to see how much Wc would give to move them here.
