Charter Members The Indiana League of Home Dallies. There is time for most of us. A' Detroit man learned to play the violin after lie was seventy-two years old j and they say he doesn't do so badly.; All prohibition enforcement officers 1 must wear special caps and “pie plate" shields so that motorists will know they are not road bandits, which : seems alright until the highwaymen' provide themselves with the necessary 1 regalia to imitate them, probably an easy thing to do. It doesn't take much to make a convention cheer evidently. They actual- 1 ly showered Governor Jackson with 1 hurrahs last week after preventing I him from making a speech and keep- ■ 1 ing him off the national convention' I at-large slate. I1 ~ I The G. E. band is a real musical or- i 1 ganization of which the community I | may well feel proud. They demon- ' i strated last evening that they are, prepared to give a good entertainment I any time and any place and they will' make a real hit at the Speedway races ; tomorrow’ The ho.vs look like a mil-! lion dollars in their new cape suits. Memorial day will be celebrated tomorrow. For many this is the most sacred holiday of the year when they < , devote their time to thought and prayer for departed friends and for; the heroes of war who have answered the final bugle call. In this city business will cease and a program fitting ! the occasion will be rendered. —wThe two men who murdered the Lafayette deputies have been captured but its a long way yet to the punishment they deserve. It will be interesting to watch the various delays in bringing these two men to justice.' brutal as was their crime and evident I as is the proof against them. Its one | of the real troubles with curbing the crime wave in this country that crim-, Inals are permitted to use every | possible loophole. —» ■———»■ There is something serious about | the condition in Chicago where Mor-' ris Becker, who owns a string of cleaning establishments, has* formed a partnership with “Scarface Al” Capone, one of the leaders of the gajigworld there to protect him from the underworld. Becker's places have been frequently bombed and since the! officers have failed to provide proteetion he has become a partner with : ■'Scarface'' and hasn't had a bit of trouble since. Have we come to the point where to prevent crime we must join with gang leaders? ‘ | There are always a certain number of people wiio operate their automo-I biles at night with one lamp unlighted. Tliis occasionally happens to any one, because of failure to realize that one lamp has gone out. But some people keep on running a car thus incomplete from mere indifference. The practice is dangerous because people in meeting them may think that their left light is their right one, and that there is more room to pass than actually exists. We used to tremble when we once read in our childhood tales about those awful oneeyed giants that were supposed to roam the laud but they were less

dangerous than the one-eyed automoI biles are now.—New Castle Courier. We hoar occasionally of some one who knows just how he could have I made a great fortune on the stock .'market, proving if by showing the "continued increase of prices on Gens I eral Motors, Erie railroad or something else. Perhaps so. but remember that for every dollar thus made dur- ; ing ths past few months one must h eventually lose, provided values ever go back to where they were. After . all the safe way to get sufficient for (the rainy day is to save steadily. If you will save $25.00 per month and reinvest it semi-annually at 5Vi% you will liave four thousand dollars in ten years and in twenty years It will have grown to nearly SII,OOO. From then ou it mounts rapidly and you will be reckoned a rich man. Systematic ■ saving is far better than any gambling method ever worked out and much more satisfactory in every way.

If the republican party has made a start on a new deal, as they claim, they should have appointed a new I crowd to shuffle the cards. Frank Dailey the state needs a new deck, but even granting the old pack would do. we should, at least, have a . new dealer. The republican convention made no plans for that. Mr. Leslie, appointed to carry the big flag, was speaker of the house in 1925, when the state was almost riddled. He did not fully cooperate with the Stephenson hunch, but he allowed them to operate, and the speaker could have stopped them. While the speaker of the house does not vote, he says which bills shall be passed down and which shall not. Then in the 1927 session, with the same power, he packed his henchmen in his office-, just off the house side, and demanded that they vote solidly agSinst the probe that had been introduced by the democrats. He thus kept off the law until tlie statutes of limitations had run and kept Ed Jackson and others out of the penitentiary. Mr. Leslie can hardly shout “new deal " He has been dealing for several years and things have been getting worse. —Bluffton Banner. — ♦ »*♦♦*»*-♦•*«* » BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * TUESDAY'S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES WEAF—Hookup 7 pm.

How to Display Our Country’s Flag There are two ways only to display the American flag properly. One la to fly the flag from a stuff, freely unfurled, with the starry field, or Union, as it is called, toward the peak. The other is to hang the flag, either lengthwise or breadthwise, with the Pnion always uppermost ami to the observer's left as he faces the ffliiff. Attenai ts to ‘'improve" the appearance of the American flag by other inetbodst of dfwplay, such as fastening it into a rosette or using is as a draping, lack the respect due to Old Glory us the symbol of our countryTo fly title flag from a statY, hoist it briskly to the peak, witli the Union uppermost. It shorn! be lowered slowly and ceremoniously, never permitting Its folds to touch the ground. If suspended across a street, the flag should be hung vertically, with the Union uppermost and to the north in an east-and-west street aad to Hie east in a nortb-iuid-south street. When flow n at half-staff, the flag should be raised to the peak of th*’ staff and then lowered to half-staff; before lowering for the day, it should be raised ugain to tlie peak and then lowered for removal. At crossed staff with another flag, the American flag should be on the observer's left, the stuff in front of the staff of the other flag. When forrtiing a cluste with other flags, the American flag should lain the center of the group or at the highest point in the group. In a procession, the American flag should be on the marching right of all other flags or in the forecenter of a hue of flags. Whether indoors or out, tlie flag should not be festooned over doorways or arches, tied in a bow-knot, or otherwise employed in purely decorative manner. For these purposes, bunting of the national colors is more appropriate, and since the Union is the flag's honor point, the bunting should be arranged with the blue uppermost. On a speaker's platform, the American flag, if not flown from a staff, should be displayed flat and played above and to the rear of the speaker —Union on the observer's left. If on a staff, the flag should be on the speaker's right. On a staff projecting from a window, the flag may be displayed with the staff either horizontal or at an angle, with the Union, except when at half staff, to the outermost point of the staff. When several flags are flown from staffs, the American flag should be flown from the staff on tlie extreme left of the observer. Old Glory is hoisted first and lowered last. When flags of two or more nations are displayed, they should lie flown from separate staffs and all flags should be approximately the same size. International usage forbids the display of the flag of one nation over that of another in time of peace. At unveiling ceremonies the American flag should form a distinctive feature of the program, but should not be used as a covering for the statue. , The use of tflie flag for athletic uniforms, handkerchiefs, napkins or other purposes lacking in dignity and respect, while not stricly a violation of law, is oftensive to persons of patriotic feeling. When the flag becomes soiled, it may be laundered with propriety. This is best, done in one's own home. There is an old Army custom whereby Old Glory, when damaged or flayed, may lie "wthdrawn from service with due reverence. According to this custom, the Union is first cut from the flag, then the two (Nieces ot the flag which is no longer a flag are cremated and their ashes strewn over the parade ground. For further rules governing the display of Old Glory apply to nearest U. S. Army Recruiting Office.
