That fellow who is wandering around in the snow, barefooted, may have his own theory as to how to cure the flu. This is tile good week in which to renew your .subscription to the Daily Democrat if you are getting it by mail. That’s Just a reminder. How about it? Have you kept your resolutions so far? If you have there is no reason why you can’t keep it up indfiuitely and that’s what you made them for. isn’t it? It is predicted that a thousand bills will bo presented to the coming session of the Indiana legislature All we can do is hope they won't all become laws.

Mr. Coolidge and Mr. Hoover each went to lied at ten o'clock New Year's eve and let the message sending business and the celebration to others. Ho hum, its a hard life. Indiana iiad the wettest New Years eve in history, it is claimed, an announcement that does not lit well with out reputation for being the dryest state in the union. They say that Mrs. New Years heard that the folks in this section complained because Mrs. Christmas arrived in a green dress, so she put on her old white one and every body recognized lier yesterday. In other words, it snowed. The weather man has fooled us so often that we didn't have much faith in his prediction of four above for this morning, but he was right for once, in fact to make it good the tner-

cury dropped all the way down to zero. Decatur welcomes another class of 1 students, enrolled for the mid winter 1 term of the Reppert Auction School with the desire Io give theuL every assistance possible and to assuft' them that any thing that can be done to make their stay here more pleasant, will be gladly given. If you don't see it boys, ask for it. The dry commissioner announces tiial there was not a death in Washington from poison liquor this year but that there was much drinking and several deaths from alcoholism, which is perhaps their way of saying that the grade of liquor has improved. New York, however, did not fare so good

us there were snuny deaths there from bad "stuff." Whi e there will be no general election in Indiana this year, the selection of city mayor and councilmen, clerk.,, treasurers and police judges will interest every one. ft is important that every municipality be governed by folks who are in earnest and

who will make every effort to bring ' • ] about the best conditions in every way. Boys, if wo want road No. 16 paved this year, this in the week to gel good ami busy on the righl-of wuys. ' If these can Im presented to the county commissioners in such manner that they will accept them next Monday, we believe the road will be included in this years program for improvement. Eventually, why not now?

TODAY'S CHUCKLE Vader, Wash. -(UP)- "«very dog has his day”, In tilts little Washington town, when a referendum wile as the city electtJU gave all dogs the right Io ramble at will on the streets. The vote carried 103 to 411

Chief Freldt's report on the lire deI II partment shows a liue record. I hough i '[property In this city to the value of i $164,000 was endangered by the destructive demon, the total loss was only $6,450. That shows what was saved by having an efficient department with good equipment. Its one of the best investments auy city can have. There may be some argument as to the rights of the mob down in Rome. .Mississippi, to burn that negro. Shepherd, but there is none that the crowd knew what they wanted and carried

out their intentions without interference. The negro liad killed an employee of the state prison farm where he was a convict and then abducted his daughter. The whole affair was deplorable. Mrs. T. J McKean, of Linn Grove, has been elected as a member of the board of managers for the Adams County Memorial hospital, succeeding Mis. Anderson who resigned to assume her duties as county recorder. Mrs. i McKean is an estimable woman. : splendidly qualified and will represent the south part of the county in a creditable manner. The appointment will meet the approval of the citizens of the county. After eight years of faithful service j to his state as governor and twice

that many years in other offices. A. Smith yesterday retired as governor of New York and was succeeded by 1 Franklin D. Roosevelt. Governor Smith has been offered many excellent positions ami places of great trust and by those who know him best and his fifteen million supporters over this country wish him every success and feel confident he will have it. His policies will be continued by Governor Roosevelt. The road between Decatur and Fort Wayne is to be kept open until spring it is announced by .James Hardendorff of the stale highway maintainence department. When it was opened a week ago it was announced that the three or four miles between the De- » ! catur pavement and that completed south from Fort Wayne was in rather bad condition, the road would be kept open if travelers obeyed the "drive

slow" signs which were put up. Now it is announced that the department feel safe that every body will drive carefully and that a detour will not be necessary. Mrs. Etta Mae Miller, the Lansing. Michigan, woman, mother of eight , children who has been convicted four times of having liquor in her possession, began the New Year in the Detroit house of correction and unless the law is changed in some manner, will remain there the rest of her life. Iler sentence has created so much discussion one way and another there and elsewhere that her case becomes one of national interest and efforts will be made in the coming session of the legislature to modify the Michi gan law which makes violation of the

liquor laws a felony and therefor subjects the guilty one to sentence under the habitual criminal statute. o ♦ TWENTY YEARS AGO * * From the Dally Democrat File • I * Twenty Yeare Ago Today • Jan 2 Superintendent Graber gives I dinner to county officials and friends

MELLON SEES BUSINESS GOOD FORNEWYEAR Washington, Jan. 2. -<Ll’> — A Iwighgt picture of business and financial conditions in 1929 was f Jiecas* today by Secretary of Treasury Mellon in a New Year statement to l.t '"’During the last year," Mellon said "the country has made steady progress Early in the year the volume of business began to show marked improvement over the closing months cf 19-<-and this improvement lias continu'd. It has been evident in manufacturing in steel production, carloading, autoin. bile production, building contracts and sales of goods Io consumers. Al of this is evidence also that buying power has been sustained and that on the whole, satisfactory employment conditions have prevailed. "Prices in basic industries have not been unduly high and have remained fairlv stable, nor does there seem to be any immediate danger of excessive demand sending prices to such high levels as to make slump in activity and, consequently, prices, inevitable. In the industrial world, conditions seem to be on an even ke-'l. and :t i
