If the gasoline war really gets serious. Johnny D. may regret having given away all those dimes. Fire losses in the United States have trebbled the past twelve years. Thats a showing of carelessness that bodes a bad ending if it isn’t checked. An eye specialist has made the discovery that green is restful and quiets the nerves. Nothing new about that, we have noticed it for some time and also that twenty dollar greens quiet it much better than ones or twos. A man is reported to have frozen to death down in Florida the other day. 1 Now Petoskey ought to discover some one who died of a sun stroke in January to complete the story. ■ Watson and Willis thrill Hoosiers"

says a Washington story of the Indiana society meeting. Thats about the best thing they do, especially during election years. Both are professional thrillers. And have you noticed that already the days are lengthened considerably? There was exactly twenty-eight iniutiti s more of day light today •than a month ago and another month itwH! bo an hour. By the way, this was more like April than January weather. Be careful of the highways, don’t overload them by overloading your cars and trucks, remember that whatever damage is done now must be replaced and that such repairs cost a lot of money. The general level of farm prices for the past year showed a ten per cent gain, it is claimed by the experts but that isn't still quite high enough to give the most of those who work at it a living wage. During the past five years the number of horses in the United States has decreased one third, which might make us wonder if the same statistics did not show that the number of tractors had increased a hundred per cent. One of the 11!) things Arthur GilHorn wants to know In his questionnail e to the Ku Klux Klan is ‘‘who was the candidate for governor the klan supported in said race?” Now quit your kiddin’ Art, you know, you were on the same ticket.

Two hundred high school boys and girls wcrc caught in a raid ou a Chicago night club the other evening and each was mixing his own. We arc ' going to have a lot of experienced bar tenders if we ever get to a place where we need them. My goodness, what if that scrap be- . tween the Standard and Shell should ! reach a point where they would actu- , ally sell gasoline for five or ten cents a gallon? How would any one take . care of business? We would all feci | like taking advantage of the opportunity for traveling. It doesn't seem just right that the ; punishment of Hotelling, the Michigan I fiend, who murdered a little five-year-1 old girl is the same us that given to ~ the unfortunate fellow who was caught a lew weeks ago with a pint of gin in his possession, hut no one will con lend that .Hotelhug got any too much. Chicago bootleggers showed a proiit

lof seventy million dollars last year, P according to Arthur Brisbane. Where he gets his figures we don't have arty idea, but if he is any where near the truth, those in charge of thiiT govern- ’. mont deserve criticism and condom--1 nation and nothing but. A Fort Wayne man has confessed that while intoxicated lie drove his I car so wildly that he killed two ’ pedestrians within three minutes. He ; is charged with manslaughter. Theye I is no use to try it, gasoline and moon [ won't mix with anything but real i trouble. To give an Old Home Week the; united support and effort of the en-; tire community is necessary. No few ; people can give it. If you are for I such an event you should plan to support it in every way, including a finan j rial subscription, remembering that i to give such an event as it should be given requires a considerable sum and that the raising of tills should not be made a burden to a few. Thirst does not mean saving every i ' cent you get hold of. It means careful buying and living, the eradication of needless expense and wastefulness; so that you have what you want when you want it. The banks of Decatur are making an unusual effort this, week to induce all who will to start savings accounts and they deserve | your support for they are splendid institutions, well managed by men in whom you can have every confidence.; Do you want a home of your own? Do you wish to travel? Do you wish, to feel comfortable by having a bank ' account? There is just one way to ' do it and that is to save, save, save. 1

Start a savings account this week in , the bank you prefer, keep adding to it from week to week with a portion of your income. It will surprise you how easy it is, once you have acquired the habit. There may be criticism of the fact that Michigan does not inflict tie death penalty even on murderers tint there can certainly be none of the; promptness with which the case of Adolph Hotelling was handled. His ; •rime was conimitteed a week ago. He was captured Saturday, arraign d Tuesday and tried yesterday, senFor Colds /7 i and / _■ Couqhs ‘J wH if i & r %» ■ i 1 ’ ® ww V1 iI K Kff “My wife and I and our children , have been using Father John’s Med- !

11-Yoar-Old Boy Has Mania For Stealing Autos — - I "■ , I Anderson, Ind, Jun 19— (INS) What to do with a H year-old boy who has developed a mania for stealing automobile* was puzzling local police authorities today. The boy is Paul Connor, proud master of "Betsy" a faithful pup that stuck to him even when in the clutch--1 es of the law. ‘ Police first be ame acquainted with | young Connor several weeks ago when he was taken into custody along with Donald Foster. 15, on charges of motor ear thefts. The Foster boy I was sentenced to the state school for boys at Plainfield. The Connor boy was allowed to go free. Since the 11I year-old lad has "borrowed" three cars. On January 6th he took a machine at 12th street and Conti al avenue according to Captain of Detectives Leland Kaufman. This car was later abandoned at the Longfellow school building. On January 9th young Connor according to his confession took a touring car at 13th and Main streets and drove it into a dit‘h four miles south jof here on the Columbus Avenue pike. •————- . . . , " .

On January 11th the boy ed' a car belonging to John Johnson 1 from near the peico-Keno * drove to Kennard.

Alton Morphew and his brother, Vestil. were hunting near the east fork of the Eel River, three miles south of here, when they spied a swar mos bees flying around.
