Several lawyers who assisted in the Jong task of unraveling and distributing the Jay Could fortune, received fees of a half million each. About *7)ne like that would he all the average lawyer would care to bother with. The Judges in Marion county now Tj-ectlve ten thousand dollars per year .and they probably don't have to know -“*iny more or work any harder than ~,rt he upstate judges whose salary is .«4>ut $1,200. Why the partiality? An Indianapolis man has sued the city of of Indianapolis for $99,000 damages to himself and family sustained wheu his car fell into one of *"th e chuck holes in the street. Some of (he ladies must have lost their hats. , Some wise farmer could make a lot of money if he would patent corn that can be matured in sixty days instead of the old-fashioned one hundred days. This is a fast age and the corn ought to be stepping along with the rest of the world. A news story says the amount of beer used in Berlin the last year, actual statisiics, would fill a tank a half mile long, 300 feet wide and twelve feet deep. Well, all we can say is that we’re glad we haven't such a tank. Lindy rates only forty per cent in ‘“'movie screen test, it is announced and “the strange thing is that he doesn't seem to care a doggone. The flying hero is not interested in anything but the air business and will devote bis life to that work. He is not a movie actor and unlike a great many seems to know it. We believe in boosting and we are sure that good seldom comes from being brutally pessimistic, but we can’t help smiling at the efforts of Art Brisbane and some of the other administration admirers in their efforts to make things appear as they “ain't”. This is not a very good time to undertake to convince the people that "unparalelled prosperity" is floating around. The directors of the Decatur Country Club meet this evening to work out a program for putting this community actually behind those who have invested a hundred thousand dollars and we ask for them your sheerest and heartiest support. We can have the finest club in the country and will have but we will have it sooner if everybody helps a little. Its a fine movement and one which you should back up. The American Automobile Association has started a campaign against / giving lifts to strangers along The road. They cite a number of instances where accidents have occurred and the one thus accomodated has received damages from the owner of the car and argue that a serious national problem is being created for these free rides breed vagrancy, making it easy for a boy or young man to tour the country in a vagabond practise. Use your own judgment. The state motor force will have charge of the program for “Safety Week” which opens Sunday. Ministeis are requested to call attention to its importance and in many towns and cities brake inspection will be conducted. Lieutenant Hal Ayors will

I inspect auto brakes here next Tues- ’ day afternoon and during next week your attention will be called to a number of things which If followed will reduce the number of accidents. Its very Important. L A modest, rather shy youth, who speaks no French and curried simply * the clothes he wore, evidently Is the most effective ambassudor that has I represented the American people to • the people of France, not excepting ' Benjamin Franklin. When England's i most celebrated ploneir aviator said | to him: "You have done the greatest thing I ever heard of” he voiced an admiration not bounded by frontiers of a country nor colored by racial prejudice. No polished diplomat could have conceived of more graeful tribute than Lindbergh's thought of the mother of Nungesser and remark that flying from Paris to New York is a more difficult feat than flying front New York to Paris. However little this flight may contribute to the science of aviation it contributes mightily to mutual respect among peoples fretted by misunderstandings. —Kennebec Journal. Do not grumble at the “detour" signs. They are unavoidable when roads are being improved. But what does a little inconvenience amount to in comparison with the permanent advantages which a good road assures? Twenty years ago a detour sign was unknown. Men worked slowly with picks and shovels, wheelbarrows and horse drawn dump wagons. There was seldom enough road torn up at one time to prevent traffic from going right through where the work was being done. But, today, it is often necessary to have miles of road under construction at one time, in order to furnish sufficient work for the Caterpilar tractors and steam shovels which move a wagonload of dirt where a laborer to move a shovelful. With such equipment, it is cheaper for a county or a state to build good roads than it used to be to maintain what would be considered today as merely cow trails. ♦♦♦♦+♦♦*»♦**♦♦♦♦ * TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY ♦ * ♦ ♦ From the Dally Democrat File ♦ ♦ Twenty Years Ago Thi« Day. ♦ *♦+♦♦♦♦♦♦*♦♦♦♦♦• June 2 —Decatur ministers protest against showing of pictuies of the Harry Thaw tiial at the Pictorium tonight.
