Though the ' weather prediction for today was cloudy and rainy, this morning was about as near perfect as we have ever seen for this time of year. So there is no use to borrow trouble, it may never come. It is surprising to leain that this country sold nearly a half billion dollars worth of goods to Germany last, year, $481,580,787 to be exact, an increase of $117,000,000 over the year previous. Germany is rapidly recovering from tile years of war and is again becoming one of the great business nations of the world. The senate has passed the bill to give Indiana two federal districts. Indiana needs two such ditsrlcts almost as much as tile wooden Indian j in front of the cigar store needs two tomahawks', but inasmuch as all other states have helped themselves to such graft, our indignation 1« under control. —From the Frederick Landis Reason column. The serious illness of Dr. Charles Beall of Fort Wayne, former Adams county man and well known here, where he has a number of relatives, has brought grief to many who loved and respected him for moral qualities and great ability. Dr. Beall is suffering from a cerebral ailment and suffvred an attack while returning from a nearby town Saturday night. Re-1 ports from his bedside are discourag- ' ing and it is feared his hsefuvlife. has reached the climax at the noontide. We presume there is no way to stop Mr. McAdoo and others fnorn j spouting at this stage of the political campaign but there is this about! it. he is one of those fellows who mat's, considerable more fuss before iLe t nomination than he does afterwaiij. We remember that four years ugo hiwent to Europe and remained until election time. If he and others would put as much steam in the generail election as they do in the preliminaries, the democratic party would be aldo to do more than they have been for several years. | The dress inakers of London and Paris who make the styles for the ladies of the world have bumped into a proposition. They shortened skirts until they went above the knees and some inonlha ago decided it was time to start back towards the shoe tops. Announcement was made but .the women, sold on the idea of less < lothofi permitting them to move with more freedom, laughed buck at. them ami just to show them took another couple of inches off. Even the argument now- being made that knees are not pretty to look at, and some are not, has fulled Io change the outer of tilings. - - - - ~ " 1 - Hurry Leslie, of Lafayette, not t

bad sort of a fellow, but unfortunately perhaps tor him, who served as speaker of the last house of representatives, has decided its time for uu honest state administration and has joined the list of republican candidates for i governor. It makes one almost want to scream with laughter to hear him ’ berate the kluu and those who have failed in their public duties for most every body had an idea that he was J iu a place where he could do some-. I thing except approve fifty million dol- ’ lars worth of appropriations. He may I be alright for those who feel like i approving the Jackson regime but not j 1 for'those who sincerely desire a change. And surely the people do. A Nevada woman recently sued another woman for alienation of her busband’s affections. She demanded - >60,000 damages. Thousands of such suits have been filed In this country, and many a woman has collcctod handsome damages thereby. But this suit had a different ending. Judge George A. Bartlett of Reno dismissed it. ruling that human affection Is not property and cannot be* treated as such. One can give or withhold one’s love as one’s heart dictates, he said, • and no court should be called on to intervene. His decision seems to us a bit refreshing. The loss of a dear one’s love is a heart-breaking affile-" tion; but it isn’t the sort of hurt that calls for money as salve. I I Congratulations to the members of the Evangelical church of Decatur. They held one of their most important sessions Sunday afternoon when with due ceremony the notes and mortgage against their beautiful ! church building were burned. The event marked an achievement worth while for it is one thing for any organization or individual to contract a debt but another one just as important to pay it off. This has been accomplished by the faithful members of this church and they d serve credit for doing it in so short a .time. Under the'efforts of Rev. Loose, popular pastor, the church has grown and prospered and the future oppor- ’ tunities for service in this community are very bright indeed. i o I *¥¥¥¥¥>»’¥¥¥¥¥* * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * H¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥U MONDAY'S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES (Copyright 1928, by United Frees) Central Standard time throughout.

RABBITS IN COLD STORAGE SEIZED Confiscaticn of fifteen hundred rabbits in an Indianapolis cold storage ; plant and subsequent imposition of j heavy fines to the owners, marked the first of a. series of raids by state co l '.-. nervation department game wardens to break up the practice of wholesale slaughter of rabbits and storage of .same until the sca.ion conns again.

The Rlu.i of the law is to bleak up the practice of whale sale shooting just prior so the dose of the open season ami then hold the animals in storage until the folowiux October when they may lawfully be purchased on an open market. “SAVE-IT" PLAN BEING INSTALLED Local Merchants Plan To Share Profits With Their Customers H C. Peck, of Cleveland, was in this city today completing the final arrangements for the installation of the “Save-lt” system among the Decatur merchants. He stated that 17 local retail dealers had already agreed to diHtribute the "Save-lt” checks to their customers and that probably several more would accept the pro-po-sition before tile system was started February 15. The "Save-lt" system is a plan whereby the merchants give checks to their customers when cash is paid or when bills are paid promptly. The checks can lie deposited in The First National Ihuik in a savings account. Tile savings account checks are then mailed out to each person before Chriatmas. The system has been successfully tried in many towns and cities in West Virginia and through the efforts of Howard Wisehaupt, former Decatur resident, the plan was brought, to Decatur. o Dwarf Faces Serious Charges In Connection With Young Girl’s Death English, Ind.

Prominent Indiana Surgeon Has One Hand Amputated Columbus, Ind. Feb. 6 —HNS) —Dr. A. P. Roope. one of the best known surgeons in this section of Indiana has been fotcoil to submit to the amputation of his right hand following a peculiar accident which occurred several montlis ago. While carrying n mirror on an elevator in Chicago the doctor’s hand was cut when the mirror was accidentally broken.

The other day Walker th ught he 1 was arresting a man for violating , game laws, but it was a woman. Walker however, didn't find this out until he appeared in Justice G. E. Bornholt's court against the alleged offender. When the judge asked: “Where is j th ?” Attorney E. J. Freund .Miss , Myra Bartholomew to tlie bench. "Here in the girl." the attorney directed. "Girl,” ( jjeulated Walker ”1 didn’t arrest a girl.” N Freund liade him lo k again. He did, even putting on his spectacles to fathom the mystery. "Well. 11l bo hanged," he said. Miss Bartholomew declined she only broke holes in muskrat houses to place her traps but that some mean ‘"kids" attempted to steal her traps and she caught them. She said the miscreants probably had broken the houses and gave her the blame. A check-up revealed she had a good reputuion and the case was di opped cold. * O-x. Phenomenal Growth Os Lake County Not Without Its Drawbacks Gary, Ind. Jan. 6 — (INS) — The phenomenal growth of Lake County, while gratifying to .the merchants any property ownqrs, is casting a shadow of impending loss in official ETAOI ites to city and county officials. , It is almost a certainty that the 1930 United States census will shew that Lake County has a population ot more than 300,000 and in such case Gary will fall in the category of a “firs' class” city. ties of more than 300,000 cannot rounder Indiana law officials in connoeivc fees cr similar emoluments, but must draw a defiimtc salary fixed by law. This law requires all tines, fees etc. to be turned into th- county treasury. This makes quite a dtfferiu.co in the laluries cf officials—-end also, inveisely, in the county treasury, j ttiii .timated that (lie 1930 census will make four m>\v "first class” cities Gary, Louth llViid, Fort Wayne and Evansville.

I learned aftnward that he had been doctoring ever ten years for his trouble. I learned of a man who hadn't left his home over two years. He had been cripplcil with rheumatism, swollen jo in-:., stiff aching limbs anil agonizing pains. He completed a few weeks treatment of Konjola. and said he walked a distance of nearly a mile. This-, cf course, was about three weeks after U" completed Konjola.
