It is always < fair and just that bottles or any other borrowed containers be returned to the person who lias furnished them. 1 And when a housewife finds that her ’ husband is unable to return them be- 1 cause of “sickness", she can surely 8 not be criticised tor desiring them returned. Os course, in the case mentioned, 1 there may have been a little unnecest sary enthusiasm shown by the woman in "returning'’ the said bottles, but 1 again the public will be happy that * Prosecutor Ryan is unable to see any- 1 J thing more than a little extra risk op. the part of the lender and no guilt on 1 the woman's part. It is just too bad that all of the bottles happened to hit windows, but how could she get them into the room through the walls? If perchance the door had been opened, the windows would not have been broken. < Also, if the door had always been opened, it is probable that there would have been not bott.es to return because friend husband would not i have had them. In the discususion of such things as this, it is also always necessary to say "alleged" and so it must be understood that it is alleged that the ( woman threw the bottles and that the ( husband procured them, filled with . something stronger Ilian tea, at the ( said establishment. It must also oe ( understood that, "it is alleged" that ( the woman knows what she is about . when she makes her allegations. As a matter of fact, there are many ( rumors about this place. Have al- . ways been rumors And when it becomes necessary for a woman to return the bottles, it would appear time for the authorities to bestir them- j selves. The public will lie glad that the prosecutor proposes to take immediate action ou these things. It will be with him to the limit, even to : helping him return a lot of loose bottles, and chimneys, ami stone houses and anything which the alleged might have misplaced.—Anderson Herald. Agreement to merge the Presbyterian and Methodist Episcopal churches has been reached and work placed underway to bring about the consolidation. It is predicted that the consolidation will be in effect within the next five years. There are bound to be members of both denominations who will not like a merger. Life-long Methodists and life-long Presbyterians will hesitate to see their respective churches lose their identities, but the consolidation is only a natural result, of churches Io meet changing conditions. Church work, following the modern busuiness trend, has become intensified ami it Is not unusual for tlie larger churches to have trained specialists to assist the ministers and the work is carried on in a systema'ic way. There Is also the duplication ct efforts and in Ibis case the consolidation would unite over six million people into a compact organisation. Advantages to be gained by the merger are probably greater than the disadvantages. The organic unity has been recognised and details to be considered deal with policy, doctrine

The most difficult will likely nc the government, because as the two churches stand now, the governing is at opposite extremes. —New Castle Courier. Now comes the rumor that the special congress which ia expected to give relief to the long suffering fanners will not be held until next October. Then of course It will take several months to grind out any thing and by that time it is probable the hope of the astute politicians that a providence will produce something that will still the constant demands. And then too will come the eve of another election and the congressmen and senators can remember their speeches so they can be repeated in their respective districts and states. The Steuben county affair is a deplorable one and we sincerely hope that the officials who have been indicted In the terrible mix-up will be able to prove entire innocence. The charges are ugly ones but the grand jury probably had sufficient evidence upon which to return the indictments. It has no doubt caused a serious breach In that community which will not be healed in years. If substantiated there will be deep regrets among those who knew the officers of Steuben county and held them in the highest esteem Work of surveying road No. 16 from this city east to the state lint? will start soon, probably this week. Other preliminaries necessary to arrange for the letting of the contract will be rushed through and it is expected that tlie actual work of construction will be under way by early summer. This will be a great improvement and the highway extended on west will make the shortest and best route through the state within a couple of years. It's a real step in progress. Colonel Lindbergh made more history yesterday when he began the fiist mail trip to tiie Canal Zone, action that will do much to unite this nation and Latin America. It was a coincidence that he made his first trip on this new air route on his twentyseventh birthday. The citizens of America wish him God speed in this trip and all others he a great mission from which great good may come. The township trustees acted wisely in re-electing Ferd E. Christen as Adams county agricultural agent. During his services in that important position, Mr. Christen has proven bis ability and interest and Jias aided the farm indusutry, than which none is more important, in various ways. He is courteous, capable and indusutrious. the qualities very necessary in his job. We bespeak for him a successful two years ahead. If all the bills now before the legislature effecting autoists become laws the drivers will have to employ some one to sit beside them and refresh their memories as to how and when and how pften they must do this and that. Mr. Hoover has definitely decided to retain Mr. Mellon as secretary of the treasury, presumably to carry on the "noble experiment,” upon which he lias been working these eight years DON’T STARVE TO END FAT Few succeed without harm. Try the modem way, embodied in Marmola prescription tablets, People have used them for 20 years—millions of boxes of them. The results are seen everywhere. Marmola contains a gland element which helps turn food into fuel and energy. The formula appears in every box, also the reasons for results. Thus you will know how the changes occur without harm. All druggists supply Marmola at 31 a box- Go start it now.

Os the score or more of major betterments which this new car ushers in, none is more conspicuously important than its exclusive Mono-piece Body. A master stroke of Walter P. Chrysler’s engineering genius, this remarkable new development combines beauty, strength and comfort to a degree never betore attained in a car of such moderate price. a And besides, it positively will not develop squeaks or rattles even after thousands of miles of hardest usage.

February 5, 1929 PEAR FRIENDS: I’ve been thinking a lot, lately, about the family laundry question. One reason, I guess, is that just recently more and more Decatur women have started sendin” their family washing to the laundry. I took some special pains to find out the story of why they decided the laundry was best. Tomorrow I’m going to tell you what one lady said. BEN ZEEN, I> s—Accidents will happen! A Decatur lady was at a party the other evening and some fruit juice was spilled. She sent it to us and now. the dress is as good as new.
