It really begins to look as though little “black boxes" and little “black bags will not be in style the coming campaign. Wear an Old Home Week button. Help make the citizenship of Decatur a big partnership. Thats what It means. — ■ Wet as Hie republican papers and news agencies paint several of the democratic candidates for president, j we doubt if any of them would have the nerve to appoint one of the great-1 est distillers of the country in charge | of the enforcement laws. They ought to build a plank out about seven miles in Lake Michigan ! and start that Indiana Harbor fiend out on it with a few hot pokers behind to urge him to keep moving until| rrhe has joined his little sons and their mother whom he sent them to join. The home coming reception for I* rank Dailey at Bluffton this evening will be one of the big political meetings of its kind in the state this 1 year and a number from this county 1 will enjoy it. The campaign is warm- ‘ ing up and bids fair to be a real, old | fashioned one. Those oil operators would have us believe that during a campaign they I just throw their dollars around, ! 3185,000 at a clip, without any' idea of how or when it is coming back. Os ■ course to swallow it your bump of, credulity has to be well developed. 1 Tile court has ordered "Bud" Fishel. who makes a very good living, we are informed, by dishing out “Mutt and Jeff ’ each day, to pay his estranged wile tour hundred dollars a week. | That would be about fifty-two times I what the ' average newspaper man could pay but we are not going to argue that Bud is an average. Now lets go out and put Old Home Week over without any joking. We have had enough of the preliminary I introduction and we're ready for business. We wish a thousand people of | this community would send In a five-| dollar bill by return mail. It perhaps won't come that easy but we are sure it will come. By the way, is nothing further to be done about demanding the resig- j nation of the governor? Surely if the republican press is as powerful as they have been claimed, they will tuut stop by sending a telegram or two to the state committee. They can sow things up to such an extent that something will have to be done —if they wish to. Business conditions are improving as we were sure they would as spring opened. Live communities will step forward and do things. What will we do? Lets get busy and stay busy until we have landed an industry or two. With our local plants all running full time, a little progress right now would mean much. Us all up to us. * Adams county seems to be having a little bad luck just at the close of a successful basketball season, which should .make every good sport just

j “buckle In” the stronger with a de- ! termination to make good in the next j battle, whether it be in sport, studies or in business. The world is full of | battles and disappointments and surr.'prises and the best sport meets them ’• I with u smile and fights on. t| I Members of the United States senjate have asked the secretary of labor for an official report on unemploy- - 2! ment in the country, claiming that, ) President Coolidge and the adminis- ? (ration have lulled the country into j a false feeling of security when in > reality four million men are out of J work. The hard times may be made an issue of the coming campaign unless there is a spurt of business with some indications of it lasting. The proper thing of course to do j in the face us what may become a 1 scarlet fever epidemic is to use goed common sense and fight it by being ; careful, in the old days it used to be deemed necessary to keep such things “under cover” as much as possible but advanced methods of preventing epidemics by scientific medical means now makes it only necessary that everybody use as much care and caution as possible.

Mrs. William Rozay of Chicago, has asked the police to aid her in finding her “hubby” whom she describes as the “ideal man.” We have often wonI dered just what kind of a gentleman that would be and we are therefore greatly interested in her description. She says that her William, who walked out of the house the other day and failed to return has these virtues: | He always called her pet names, never quarreled, always helped her with the dishes, loved her cooking, consulted her about everything, kissed her thirty , times a day and never dropped ashes on the rugs. Wonder if it would be contempt of court to ask if the dishes have been washed since he left? William Woods Plankington, son of a Milwaukee multi-millionaire, recently inherited four million dollars and everybody expected him to 101 l around and enjoy spending it. He is just twenty-one years old and has a j job in a construction engineer's office at twenty dollars per week and his ■ boss says he is one of the best men he has in his office. Bill wants to .be an engineer and some body, that is, he wants to really accomplish something for himself and so he has surprised everybody by declaring that I he prefers to go right on with his job. ' He hasn't time for night clubs and | wild parties and at night as well as ' in day time is thinking of his work. You just bet a fellow made with that stuff will make good even when burdened with four million dollars. o — *¥¥¥¥¥*!■¥¥¥¥¥* * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * H ********** ¥8 TUESDAY'S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES (Copyright 1928. by United Press) Central Standard Time Throughout.

Tips For Taxpayers Charitable contributions and gifts are deductible within the llmfntations of the revenue act. In order that a deduction may be made, contributions to a corporation, trust, community chest fund or foundation must meet several tests. Such organizations must be operated exclusively for religious, charitable. scientific, literary or educational purposese or for the prevention of cruelty to children or animals. No part of its income must inure to the benefit of private stockholders or individuals. Every church constitutes a religious corporation for the purpose of this deduction. Contributions made to a missionary fund to church building funds, for the benefit of other activities, of the church are deductible. Pew rents, assessments and dues paid to churches are regarded as contributions. Gifts to an individual are not deductible, but it made to a chartable organization, as defined by the revenue act, may be deducted even though the organization distributes the gifts among individual beneficiaries. Contributions made to the United State, the District of Columbia, any stale or territory or any "political subdivision thereof" for "exclusively public purposes” are deductible. A gift of real estate to be maintained perpetually as a public park is deductible. Taxpayers are required to state in their returns the name and address of each organization to which the gift is made, the approximate date, and the amount of the gift in each case.
