You need not wait much longer to buy that new automobile—the first of March will soon be here. Don't give the solicitors for the Boy Scout fund a cold shoulder when they call on you this week. No one has ever written about the beauties of a February thaw and we haven't the nerve to try. • Mr. Hoover is having about as much trouble trying to collect a cabinet as some fellows have in trying to collect accounts. . Decatur also lias splendid railroad facilities, connecting us with the east, west, north and south. As a suggestion let’s put a few of these facts on our letter heads and toot our own horn a bit. , When writing to outside manufacturers tell them that Decatur has a low power rate, it is one of the things witch progressive industries are looking for. You might refer them to the General Electric and other splendid industries which use city power. Senator Carter Glass of old Virginia, made a statement on the 1 floor 1 of the senate the other day that all Hie speeches and oratorical fire of the senators never changed a vote. Well what's the use of having a session of congress? To the tune of the "Prisoner's Song," 50 persons who were arrested in raids in Fort Wayne yesterday were taken to police headquarters for questioning. Some had booze on them, while others had it in them and all joined in signing the popular hit. And so it goes. A move has been made Io prevent Senator Vare of Pennsylvania from taking his seat. Illness has prevented the senator from going to Washington and as yet he has not answered to a roll call The question before the house seems to be "Vare vill Vare sit ?" The Marines will not be brought home from Nicaragua, the senate having approved of President Coolidge's policy in sending the Americans there. The Nicaraguans may need them, but so does Chicago and it might be wise to send an army to I lie Windy City to help clean things up there. Then there is a city primary there today. The proposed tobacco taxed, aimed mostly at cigarettes lias been killed. Thanks to the sane judgment of the legislature. Indiana did not want a tobacco and instead of the law creating extra revenue for the slate ii would have curtailed business, brought about bootlegging in the sale of cigarettes and tobacco and just been another law taking an army to enforce. Why lax cigarettes any more than beans or peas? Next Friday is the first of March ami the township assessors with their deputies will start again on the task of assessing personal property. Real estate will noj be assessed this year, additional improvements being the only tiling besides iiersonal property on the schedule. The cooperation of the taxpayers will make it easier for the assessors to do a good job and

Iu the election of Mr. J. M. Triggs. Huntington manufacturer, as president of the state Y. M. C. A., this organization obtains the services of one of IndUma’s leading business men and progressive manufacturers. Mr. Triggs is a man of high ideals, is practical and his own success in the manufacturing business proves that he lias vision and is fully capable of executing orders. The state Y. M. C. A. will continue to advance under his leadership aud benefit from his advice and honest effort to be of service in an honorable undertaking. The death of Henry Colter, of Bobo, removes one of the pioneer citizens of the community. Reaching his four score years, most of which were spent in this county, Mr. Colter was known to hundreds and his pleasing personality endeared him to the hearts of those who knew him. Mr. Colter was one of the pioneers in the saw mill business in this section of the country and when the Erie railroad was built furnished many of the ties. He was a man of fine ideals. | of good Christian character and his I death brings sorrow, not only to Ills' family, but to a wide circle of friends and admirers. o TO-DAYS ‘ FISH RECIPE • BY MRS.

February 26, 1929 DEAR FRIENDS: Yesterday I was talking to a lady who's been a « steady customer cf ours ever since I've been here and I don’t know how long before that. I asked her why she sent her clothes to the laundry, and she said, "Why I just always have!” Then she went on to tell me how she had it figured out. She has a family, and she wants to keep young with them, she says. But she found out she can't do it unless she has some leisure for reading and for them. “I couldn’t afford to hire my housework done," she says, "but at your charge of only 5c a pound for a twenty pound washing I could afford to have my laundry done. And that just gives me a wfiolc extra day for my family every week. BEN ZEEN. P S.—The ladies of Decatur are learning that it pays to send their undergarments—the dainty silk ones—to the Decatur Laundry. DECATUR LAUNDRY “The Farr Way”
