I t Tomorrow is another Sunday, the t day of rest after six of work and j worry and fighting and gossiping and t galloping and rushing. The relax- ( ation is the best tonic you can take. a See that you don’t miss your dose y of it. t Don't quit. Remember that the f quitter never wins because he has £ already lost. He doesn't have a (! chance. Keep lighting and one of ;| these days the dark clouds will fade g away like mist before the sun and f you will be more than repaid for your . effort. Keep smilin'. c About two hundred men in the ‘ ’ a United States had incomes of more ( than a million dollars last year,•but J half of them lived in one state. New a Yoik, and none of them were farm- f ers or small town business men. Most . I of them will not be bothered with int come tax reports this year. I* Relief from the cold wave is prom- 1 ised by tomorrow, but that doesn't ' mean a thing. It may come afid then v it may not. This winter tho weather * n man has been off on about every rv guess and the present drop swept into this section almost without 1 warning. Guess we'il just have to n 1 take it as it comes any way. Senator Willis of Ohio, who aspires b to become presidesit, suggests that j the democrats adopt as their slogan. "Houston, Heflin —and hell,” a rather 4 noisy and unexpected sentiment from A the college man and heretofore supposed straight laced statesman. He S might use for his slogan, "Willis wants to and won't.' Start a savings account. This is our final appeal to you as Thrift Week closes. The three Decatur , banks have presented to you each v evening for a week a strong argument why you should budget, save, 1 start a bank account, live within your means, buy as you need and pay your bills promptly. Have you read these pages? They are important for you and for the community. 1 A week ago Adolph Hotelling was a respected citizen of Owosso, Michi- 1 gap. now he is a cringing, fear-wrack-ed wreck of a man, known only as No. 4438. He has given up his fam- i ily, his neighbors, his opportunity to serve a real purpose in the world and has gained nothing tut the contempt • of every one. His should be a lesson long remembered by those inclined to think they can copimit crime and not bo found out. How about your automobile license? There Is no bluff about the statement that unites you have the 1928 plates on your car by February Ist y,ou are liable to arrest. Tlio statu departincut reports that licenses have gone 'mt more i.lowly this year than usual und orders have already been Issued

to tho state police, municipal and county offlctrs to make arrests beginning February Ist. This is given you only as a warning and so you may act according to your own best judgment. We have to hand it to Frank L. Smith of Illinois. He Is no quitter Scarcely had the United States sen-' ate barred him from his shut, than the Illinois politician announced that he will be a candidate for the place again this year. He is evidently determined to keep the solons busy turning him down, perhaps firm in tho be'ief that when they are doing that they are detained from other thing.' more dangerous. Colonel Lindbergh is having the best time he has had since he became famous From the minute he landed on the Parts field and remarked "my name's Lindbergh" his life has been a constant turmoil of receptions, banquets and entertainments of one kind and another. The other day he sneaked off to the wildest part of Panama where he is eating, sleeping, fishing and hunting, receiving and answering no messages, Just resting He deserves and needs the vacation and we are sure he is enjoying it completely. Just now when the new Haugen McNary farm relief bill is again before congress, there is much speculation as to what will occur. It Is predicted it will pass both houses by larger majorities than before but few are guessing as to whether the president will veto it again or not. Chances are he will but there are some who believe lie has a different view of the farm industry since his visit to the Black Hills of South Dakota Farm organizations are open in their criticisms of his previous action ami declare they will oppose in election:-, all who are against the bill at this session. The farmers demand higher prices tor their products, the sami protection given to industry, railway;and other lines, a chance to get out of debt instead of going further in and insist that this can come onlythrough the equalization clause of the proposed bill, which is the part the administration wants cut out. The farmers have openly declared against Herbert Hoover, believing him to be the adviser of the Coolidge adminis tration on the farm question. Unless relief is given soon it is probable a third party representing the farmers, which avocation consists of one-third the population of tho United States, may be formed. They claim the farmers dollar is now worth but eight} cents in comparison with that of the manufacturer, merchant <si' laborer. There are some things about it all to make the economic person scratch his head and think hard.

Hammond Citizens Have Visions Os Sudden Wealth Hammond, Ind., Jan. 21 —UNS) — With the announcement that the Chicago Commercial Club had completed plans to develope the Calumet district of Indiana and the city of Chicago , into a world harbor, Hammond citizens are seeing visions of sudden wealth. The park board will soon come into wssession of 28 a.res of lake front property that once could be had for ' the asking and Is now estimated at icing worth $1,000,000 an acre.

Jan. 21 — (INS) The may be no conneclion between the two events but Lebanon is putting the damper on it’s "flaming youth”. About a week aga the high school coach dismissed four fifths of the basketball squall, giving as his reason the fact that the boys failed to keep training. Fallowing that event the mayor and chief of police, a few days later declared war cn the sale of cigarettes to minors.
