Cleau-up, paint-up, fix-up—next week is the general gather up week for this city. Don't pass it up. Only four more days in which to pay taxes and half the money is still out. Its a tough job hut one that we must meet each six months. Don't let the weather he an excuse for you to overlook gathering up the tin cans and the rubbish from the yards. The trucks will* start Monday morning and if you haven't prepared for them by then- it will he too late. We've frequently heard of folks praying for rain. Wonder how il would work if they got busy on a few pleas to stop it? Seems like its never going to let up more than an hour or two.

Don't give money to strangers who claim to 1) representing the ReiK Cross. They don't raise money that wav. Your donations should be dropped in one of the boxes or given to C. Li. Walters or Miss Anna Winnes or to one of the members of their commiltee whom you know. Television has been perfected it is ; claimed, which makes it tough on those who wish to have a little private' - party. Just think the police can call j you up and see wliats going on. Thank goodness they haven t yet figured out a "smell vision” along with it. A stranger claiming to represent - the Fort Wayne Red Cross tried to collect money here yesterday. He ■...• in t !, it i" ehu.<go. Fort \\ ayne chapter has no business solicit- 1 ing here and would not attempt it, so you can safely bet that the man was a "lake" and that the money was for his own relief solely. Twenty-five farmers, hankers and state officials held a meeting at | Indianapolis yesterday and adopted a resolution asking Frank Lowden, of Illinois, to become a candidate for the republican nomination for president. , What they said about Coolidge and Ooolidge prosperity would indicate in | a rather positive way that they didu't j like it. We know that most people are not i flush with cash these days and were ■ I it not that we feel the call was so! I great for aid l'or the flood sufferers. I we would not urge you to give to the i j fund now lit ing raised. Surely we i I can all spare a little for this cause I and we will if we just stop to think I of the dreadful suffering now going I on in the Arkansas and Mississippi I flood territories. 5 Winchester street from Adams to I the Nickle Plate railroad is to be im- j proved this year, if the petition now I on iile and signed by practically every resident property owner is granted as it will n» doubt be. The brick street which lias been down twenty years! will be covered with a material which j j will make it smooth, noiseless and I substantial. Its a splendid movement! and one we predict which will boused likewise on other streets, once! demonstrated. . Vice-PresMent Emmons of the Geu-| eral Electric company declared yes-j terday that the Decatur plant was positively the best in the country and that the directors of the big company j

jure very proud of It. Il« said also 1 that the business outlook was fair und that Indications for satisfactory continued business was good. Mr. Emmons Is one of the great business men of the country, to whom and his associates this city feel very grateful 1 for tile establishment of the model ■ factory here. 110 you realize that out ill the southI wist thousands of people are liome--1 less and bankrupt, downcast and stifle ring, without hope of any returns from their investments this year, hop- . Ing that their lives and the lives of their loved ones may be saved? Do you know that the Red Cross is making every effort to bring them comfort and are asking for financial assistance that they may do so? The ' quota in Adams county is $1 025. Lets don’t fall down. Never was their a more just cause, never a call more

sincere. Give something to the -fund. "President Coolidge defends liis administration" says a headline in many { * new spapers yesterday, the stories I telling of an address made by the president at the gathering of news-J paper men in New York City and it reminds us of the attitude usually taken by presidents after having , served as long as has Mr. Coolidge. If he should lie re-elected next year it is quite probable he will he called upon many times to defend his administration for in this great country the people have away of tiring of chief executives and of criticizing them. She had a perfect right to wear it—and also a perfect left. You’ll have a perfect right to laugh.—( ort Theatre. April 27.

Sets a New Standard A motorist who has been using Red CrownEthyl and Iso = Vis motor oil, says that he never knew such “perfect service" could be obtained. Actual use —that s the best test of any product. In actual use Iso - Vis exceeds all expectations! Iso = Vis sets a new standard! Thousands of motorists have taken the time and trouble to write us enthusiastic letters like the one below, telling how Iso = Vis has proved itself in actual use. South Side Lumber Company F. A. Hoppert, Prop. 3011 South Adams Street Peoria, Illinois February 2, 1927 “Mr. H. C. Griffin, Manager, Standard Oil Company (Indiana) Peoria. Illinois “Dear Sir: “A car operator hears a great deal about th* merits of various oils and gasolines, but the nna analysis is the actual results obtained. “My Buick car is now being operated on Red Crown-Ethyl Gasoline and lubricated by Iso — T'is Motor Oil, and I will frankly say that I never knew such perfect service could e obtained until I changed to these two products, which you have produced. “I like to pass on good things to the ot her fellow—sol am writing you this letter to express my appreciation and to permit you to pass t is message on to other owners of Buick cars. “I have had easy starting at all times, even under most severe conditions, and my oil gaugmaintaina even pressure at all speeds. Yours truly, Frank A. Hoppert”. This letter tells something of the amazing efficiency of Iso — Vis. Iso = Vis gives thorough complete lubrication every day in the year every mile of every trip —all the time. Iso = Vis has astonished the motoring world. It is a revolutionary motor oil. Oil of tie P thinned out. Iso = Vis maintains a con viscosity —constant efficiency— from s a finish. Try Iso = Vis once - and you « unde stand its enormous popularity!
