We hate read several articles about the power of the old fashioned minister, but perhaps the preachers of today could also recall the time when the congregation were better listers- " ers and better attendants at the house of worship. How about that 1928 license for your car. Have you secured yours yet? According to the records only a small percentage of the ear owners of Adams county have them and the i time limit is up Monday. After that it will be expensive to drive your car with the now tags. Just about a month in which to complete your income tax report, unless an extension is granted by the * government, so its best to be already when the blanks do arrive. You might have to turn it in quickly for you never can tell just what the government will require about an income tax report. Build more houses, work with the Decatur Industrial Association, support your home merchant, boost for Decatur and Adams county, help do those things which are for the general good. That’s the way to build a good town, that’s a safe rule to follow Tor you can’t lose though your benefits may be indirect. The spring season approaches and the enterprising merchant is getting ready to slip in and gef the share of trade which the fellow wiio doesn’t advertise, loses. Its a well established tact that the merchant who doesn’t advertise pays the bills for those who do. Something else to worry about. Experts have discovered that the Vincennes fire which cost two lives Saturday night was due to coal dust. They claim that several loads of dry coal were dumped In the basement a day or two before the fire and dust from this circulating through the air became ignited and caused the fire to spread so rapidly through the entire building. The democratic editors agf in session at Indianapolis today and tomorrow and lh,> occasion as usual is attracting politicians, big and little, from every section of the state. It is the concensus of opin|pn that the democrats can carry Indiana this year if properly organized and the campaign conducted in such a manner that the facts of state government 'can be given the voters. Jesse Hamrick. Indianapolis lawyer and bis wife are under arrest, on a charge of burning their home two weeks ago. This is the fourth fire in four years and each time they collected handsomely from the insurance companies. Hamrick and his wife were away when the fire started but a negro who says he was employed by them lias confessed. Some people don't seem to care bow they get money, nor to reckon the cost. • Youung Bob LaFollette, following tire training from his father opened his box of tricks in the senate yesterday and convinced James Eli Watson and others of the staudpat crowd that he does not propose to sit by suck Ing his thumb while they pass law after law for the benefit of the" rich inau.

We hold no brief for Bob LaFollette and we do not believe in most of his policies, but we do believe he is right when lie charges that “wealth, arrogant In its power is running riot" and he might have added that so far as congress and the senate is concerned has a clear track. And yet the republican press has the uuumitigated gall to say there are no issues. How do they keep the corset factories going these days. Miss Cunningham, the Chicago designer, said yesterday in a talk in New York that the cutset as we knew it a few years ago has "disappeared never to return. She also said that the well dressed women of 1926 will wear one garment which serves as brassiere, corset and “undie” and one outer garment and no more. And yet they Vilde their ears. Can you beat it? It may interest you to know that police are watching those corners where stop signals have been placed, making a list of those who violate the order and one of these days may surprise you by telling the court just how reckless you have been. The only way to avoid accidents is for every driver to obey the laws and orders and if you don’t do it because you are a plain, .every day, good citizen, you will have to do it because the law makes you do so. How about a Fourth of July celebration this year? This is the sesquicential year, the celebration of fire jnc hundred and fifty years of American independence and all over the country will be observed. The holiday comes on Sunday this year and so it is perfectly proper to celebrate either on Saturday or Monday, the latter being however the date to be generally observed. If the event is to be made the occasion for a real celebration it is not too early to begin planning. ■ ——O 1 * Big Features Os * * RADIO ♦ >+♦♦♦+♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ FRIDAY’S TEN BEST RADIO FEATURES Copyright, 1926. by United Press WMAQ, Chicago (414 M) 4 p. m.
