Get your smile ready for the Old Home Week committee tomorrow. After Lindy has sailed his new plane around the world there will he nothing left but an excursion or two to the moon. Mayor Thompson insists that Chicago is the best governed city In America. He would say that. If she's the best we would hate to hear from the worst. C san up your yard and assist the city in disposing of the debris from tlie recent storm. Its ouf job as well as that of the street committee and city officials. Lets do it. A Los Angeles woman used a thousand barrels of whiskey in four years, according to charges filed ih court there. Site must have had a larger sized hath tub than that one used in New York. Remus may not have been an expert bootlegger but he certainly must be some lawyer. After acquitting himself on on the "sole grounds of insanity” he turns the table and proves he is as sane as any member of the-jury which turned him loose. Arthur H. Vandenberg. Grand Rapids editor has been appointed United States senator the late Senator Ferris. We don't know much about Mr. Vandenberg but his biography indicates the Michigan governor selected him for his individual ability to serve the people. Its paint-up and clean-up season and many Decatur folks have already started the annual jot>. Its important that every one does it and the sooner we get at it, the earlier we will hate the work done and the longer we will enjoy the comforts of a clean and attractive looking' community. A few dollars invested in a community, designed to create a lively week is always well invested and when you combine with that the return of the folks away from home. Wt* don’t see-how any body can object or how they can do any tiling else but enter into it with at the necessary pep to put it over big. The League of Nations is finally getting down to some real business. They propose to engage in war—world wide — against rats and mosquitos, thus aiding in the fight against yel'ow fever, malaria, sleeping sickness and the bubonic plague. ’They should have no trouble in securing millions of volunteers for such an army. Congress expects to adjourn within two months and bo far they have done nothing but play. Now they propose to take up farm aid, tax. flood, marine, Boulder tlam, railroad consolidations and other measures of the very greatest Importance. There will be the usual rush at the wind-up instead of the’careful consideration due ■ matters of such significance. And don't forget Ilia I all the lime there will be considerable more politics than any thing else. ML anti Mrs. Henry Ford have

sailed for England. Henry says Its Just a trip and Mrs. Ford entiles like a bride on her honeymoon, this being her first trip abroad. They will visit in England, Scotland and Ireland and will remain several months. In the . meantime If Henry gets a chance he may increase the orders for new cars over there, though they are now sending something over a hundred thousand and with not much chance for shipments before the middle of summer. According to information from Lima, Ohio, Georgue Remus Is still in the insane asylum and will probably be held there for a while. E. M. Botkin, prosecutor, Insists he will tight to the last ditch to prevent the

release of the man who escaped punishment for murder on the "sole grounds of insanity.’’ It certainly looks as though he either was or wasn't and if he was and isn't, he has made* a quick come-back. Its a serious precedent to thus white-wash a i. man who delilierately murdered his ; - -wife, regardless of provocation. 1 — —- The damage to the telephone lines ■ from the recent Storm was the most f severe ever known in this section. , The Citizens company will do every ' , thing in their power to restore communication as soon as possible. Alerady the lines leading to Bluffton and 1 Fort Wayne have been repaired and are working satisfactorily. Most of j the residences in this city haye been I ' hooked up again but the rural lines * are still down and some of them will be out of commission several weeks. The loss is severe and the company directors and managers deserve any 1 cooperation that can be given. The sudden death of Senator Willis . of Ohio, transfers the center of interest from the state to Indiana where Senator Watson is opposing Mr. Hoov- , er for the delegation to the republican 1 national convention. The contest beSenator Willis and Mr. Hoover was perhaps of greater importance than the one in this state for the Ohio | man was generally conceded a better thance to w’in than is given Senator Watson but its doubtful if the Wi lis ; delegates can make much of a showing now with their leader gone, so attention will be directed to this state. The battle here w-ages hotter each day and with five weeks to go, will teach a high point of interest. o *¥¥¥¥¥*¥¥•¥»♦ * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO • S¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥«¥¥S MANDAY’S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES; WEAF —Hookup B:3tf pm. — Jacques Thibaud, violinist, and General j Motors orchestra.

Stomach Caused Constant Agony Back Ached and Kidneys Hurt. Tells How He Got Well. Anyone who has hail stomach trouble, kidney pains or rheumatism, need not be told that Mr. S. E. Long - cor, New York Central employee. Route 7, Elkhart, Ind., is very glad his suffering is over. lie tells of his recovery, as follows: ‘‘When stomach trouble attacked me two years ago, it brought more suffering than I could have believed possible. Every time I tried to eat, the pains in my stomach were awful. I was bloated with gas, bilious and had a bad taste in my mouth. My kidneys began to trouble me. My back ached, head ached, and the nights seemed very long because I could scarcely sleep. Every morning I got up more tired than when I went to bed. Friends know how I was before I took Viuria, so I want them to know how I am now. I have no stomach trouble. All that pain, gas and indigestion are gone. My bowels arc working fine again, kidneys seem in good order, and I haven’t a touch of that old back-ache. I am sleeping good, feeling full of pep—in fact, I feel perfectly well again. It seems hard to realize that Viuna could do as much for any sick man as it did for me, but these are facts.” Viuna acts promptly on Mugglgh Imwela. Iszv (Ivor an<l weak kidneys.

PURDUE HELPS MANY PERSONS More than one million and two hundred thousand persons, over a third of the population of all of Indiana were given direct assistance during the past year by Purdue University through its many lines of activity in agriculture, industry, science, and home econorqjcs.. Before the school year closes in June, more than 10,000 leaders in industrial and agricultural lite of Hoosier comm unities will have been direct participants in conferences and short courses within the halls of the University. This number is approximately two and a half times the regular student enrollment, which will be somewhat above 4,000 for the current year. The remainder of this extremely large number was reached through agricultural and engineering extension work The campus of Purdue has in effect become the state. To those who have not been able to attend the conferences or courses at the University, the engineering ami - agricultural extension services have taken the latest, findings and developments of their fields to the men. women and children who have been able to put to practical use the knowledge gained. More than 4,000 farm men and women took part in the agricultural conference at Purdue this year; the road school brought 540 road builders and county officials to discuss the latest developments in road construction and testing of materials. Telephone plant managers, steel workers, electric line foremen, electric light specialists, heating contractors, and engineers, and gas meter experts have alternated with beekeepers, bakers, poultfymen. farmers, grain buyers, bankers and builders in probing the depths of Purdue’s immense fund irtformation and help for the practical industries of the state. The farmers' meetings held through-
