Start a saving account in yous bank this week and see how much you can save the next year. How about those New Year resolutions? Its better to make them even if you break them after while than it is not to make them at all. Some of the boys after checking up their Christmas bills probably have a better understanding of how France feels about her war debts. Its about time for the sob-sisters to start raising a fund to hire Darrow to defend Hickman, the arch criminal of the age. If they do the jury should turn him over to them and let them pet him to death. Resolve that you will help your community the next year. Do it by building a home, encouraging others to do so, fix up your property, help land a few industries, trade at home, be a real booster and help make 192 S a record breaking year for business. There is still plenty of time to take your winter outing in Florida or California. So far there hasn’t been much demand for any finer climate than we have had in Indiana but we feel a little nervous about promising a continuance of this during the next three months. ’’’ The mild weather we have been • njoying here does not seem to be general and it. may be we are changing into a more favorable dime than in the old days. Europe reports unusually severe weather and down in the everglades of Florida the mercury dropped to twenty-seven above, which is much colder than it has been here the past two weeks. Figure it out. if you can, we admit its too deep for us. Os course there is much complaining about the general conditions and the times of the past year and in a number of instances it has been bad enough but taken pro and con, things could be much worse and have been. Most of the people here art; fairly prosperous, at least comfortable and with indications of better times ahead, the hustler will be able to get along nicly. Keep smiling and trying. I, ’ One rule and one resolution you should make and keep is that of thrift for the year 1928. If you will go down the list of men who have amassed fortunes, great or average, you will find that they did it largely by being careful and by not spending more than they made. Start a saving account in your bank, keep it going, make it as large an you can and you will be surprised how quickly you can have a thousand or two and how rapidly that will grow.

’ r Chicago has taken the lead by pass- s ing an ordinance which forbid* auto- J mobiles parking in the loop which is the real downtown section of that < city. The cars may puss through the ; streets but can only stop to let pass- . rngers in or out. A few years ago j merchants every where were inviting < patrons to park in front of their stores but the jam has become such a problem that steps most be taken to regulate the parking of tars. No one has, worked out so far a means of solviiig’tbc parking problem. Hickman confesses, thus confiring j what, most every one already believ-

ed. At first It was the general opin- ’ ion of police, detectives and the public that he had accomplices but when it was found that the man upoji whom he tried to fix me responsibility was • in jail and had been there several 1 months for bootlegging, every one be- , lleved he was a malicious liar along with being a kidnaper and a murderer. Los Angeles will be fortunate if they I prevent a lynching of this wild young ( man. ! We are planning to give you a I better paper next year as our con- • tributlon to keeping up with the times. We hope to add several good features and to further equip that we may furnish you the news when it happens. We want your continued loyalty and the same confidence you have had now for a quarter century. I The coming year will be an interest- • ing one and the news will be exciting ’ on several occasions we are sure. We 1 will notify you during the next few [days of your expiration and hope you ' will renew your subscription for the coming year as soon as possible, that we may conclude our contracts and otherwise arrange to make this our i biggest and best year in serving you and the entire community. Most of us have many troubles but as the old timer said, most of them . never happen. The same thought was thus recently expressed by Owen D. Young, chairman of the board of the General Electric company and recognized as one of the great business men of the world: ‘‘Bitterness usually comes from discussing things which | are not up for solution, something off in the future. Such theoretical speculative discussion is waste, and much of it is worse than waste because it breeds misunderstanding and ill-will. If people would do the things which are to be done immediately, and try to do them well, and not bother too much about far off things except to see that we are headed right, mankind would make more actual progress and make it more harmoniously.” — o *»¥********** * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * Is************ Wednesday's Five Best Radio Features Copyright 1927 by UP WEAF. network, 9:30 p. m.—Opera, "Haensel Vnd Gretel.” WEAF. network, 7:0*1 p. m— Great Moments in History.
