Some one has discovered the two principle causes for divorces — men anil women. President Coolidge shook hands. with over three thousand at his New Year’s reception and as a result has his good right bandaged. This has occurred several times anil it begins to look as though he will have to just wave his hand hereafter or attach an automatic to his hobby horse. Dr. Frederick Cook of more or less , north pole fame seems to be in the same position us was ex Governor. McCray, too well known, to easily get a pardon. The appeal to the supreme court of the I'nited States was lost yesterday when a decision was hand-1 ed down. Have you started a savings account? Now Is the best time of the year and ' if you overlooked this resolution, make it yet. Start with your pay envelope this week.

Judge Hardy acts as though he will refuse to stand for unnecessary delay in the Hickman trial. When the lawyers asked for a thirty-five day delay to get evidence from Kansas, the judge quietly fixed the time of trial for the 25th of this month. Hickman plead “not guilty by reason of insanity.” and will fight as hard as he can for his worthless life. John G. Hoffman, commissioner ■ from the first district is the first candidate to announce an entry into the primary election. He will seek the office another term as is customary and his splendid record so far will no doubt prevent any one entering the field against him. He was elected in 1926 and began his term of office a year ago. We may have some business with an army down in Nicaragua but so far it has not been announced. We seem to be waving a red flag at those Latins with the hope that they will get mad enough to slap some one and then we can go in and show them how insignificant they are, certainly not a very lofty attitude for a nation the size of this country. We don’t need a war. Nine Americans had an income of more than four million dollars last years, fourteen beat three million, thirty-three had two million and fortythree $1,500,000, while 228 had incomes exceeding a million. Thats a lot to earn in one year and reminds us that not so very long ago a number , of great adn good men loved to tell us that no one could amass a million honestly in a life time. Now wo don’t know what to think. This is the month of clearance sales and many of the stores of Decatur are offering you attractive bargains in good merchandise. There is no question about this and its up to you to do your marketing at this

| time. Read the various announce- ' inents as they appear in this paper and don't over look these golden opportunities. Announcement of sales ‘ begun last Monday. If you have over'looked any of them hunt up the pupJ cis and go over them. Election news, the markets, sports, affairs at Washington, the trail of Colonel Lindbergh, court house items, personal mention, society mid a thousI and other features make the Daily Democrat of Interest to all who wish I to keep posted on the news of greatest importance to residents here. Just now we are making our annual cam- • palgn for renewals and we will appro- | elate your early remittance. We have . ■ been serving you a quarter century ! now and we are sure you feel we can I |and will continue to give you the ! news when its news.

Clyde Walb, republican state chairman, perhaps realist s fully now the truth of the old adage that when' “you're up, you're up and when you're 1 .down, you're down.” A few months! ago his word was law and his slightI est request was immediately com- 1 I plied with. Now he has been indicted, and even his closest friends are turn-! Ing against him. The GoodrichMoorman crowd which a short time' ago agreed to raise the $50,000 he needed to help him out of financial , difficulties have sent word that its too late and they can't do a thing. It i is also reported that only twenty per cent of the amount desired had been | subscribed. The safest way to stay lout of trouble seems to keep out, in the first place. Wives and children sometimes think that husbands and fathers are stingy when they insist on keeping the family expenditures within the bounds of thrift. They do not understand that the family finances which do not go forward must to some extent be drifting back. They cannot stay put in one spot any more than any other affairs of man or the universe. A woman who writes for women says in a recent article that it is cruelty for the husband and father to allow a family to be extravagant. It is too easy to lose everything by misplaced investment or by the death of the earner. The point she makes is that the standard of living which means comfort and satisfaction to people

“We Resolve”nftlb Wrh V J “TO-budget our household expenses during this New Year and make a determined effort to SAVE something for a Home of our own! And that neither of us will do any needless spending until we’ve achieved that more worth while goal!” There-that’s a sensible New Year resolution every young couple should make. Certainly, a Home—of all things—is worth SAVING for! • * Why Not - - Open A 4% Interest-Earning SAVINGS ACCOUNT "for it with this Bank today? Old Adams County Bank

who uro 'on the way up means a cramped living which spells misery to those who have to put up with It on the way down from luxury. This is pul ting It strongly, but perhaps not I too much so. The point to watch in any consideration of saving or handling money is that thrift Is not a virtue, and not a little tin god. Thrift is merely n method of attaining freedom from worry. The family which hoards ami never enjoys is not thrifty of the right thlngs—it is not attaining freedom. The family which lives beyond its means Is selling itself Into slavery. The kindness to wives and children consists in holding out a good percentage for the rainy day, In teaching them the things which will make them self-supporting and self- ' reliant, ami then spending the rest 1 cheerfully and sensibly Io get the I most out of the sunshine. !#¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥♦ * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * I K ¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥ >5 I THURSDAY'S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES WJZ—Hookup 8:00 pm. — Maxell Hour WJZ Hookup — 9:00 pm. — Philco Hour; Chicago Civic Opera in "11 Trovatore.” ' WEAK Hookup 8:00 pm, Eskimos. i WEAK Hookup 7:00 pm.
