It would suit most folks in Adams county just as well or a little better if Kirby Davis would make his headquarters some where else. There is a feeling all the while that there may be something doing. Take a look at the special bargains offered in the various Decatur stores for Saturday of this week as announcements appear the next day or so. Decatur offers more because Decatur has more to offer. It doesn't require much real courage for a bandit to be daring when he is stonding behind a machine gun and his opponents are unarmed. Hr Is probably a yellow coward in a plain every day scrap where the odds are even. A thosuand acres more will assure continuation of the big sugar plant here. Looks like the farmers will profit this year, the laboring men will have a job and the business will do bettor. , Certainly a campaign in which every one should take part. We invite discussion of the proposed daylight saving ordinance through these columns. If you are for it, tell us why, if you are opposed to it, tell us why. The public seems to care little about it one way or the other. There should be a vote on it that will express public opinion. Indications are that it will be a rather difficult matter to get the vote out hate on primary day, owing to the fact there are but two contests. It is not fair to the ladies who are asking your support for clerk and treasurer on the democratic ticket not to cast a ballot. Plan to vote and take your neighbor along. Its hard to prevent a fellow getting a “jag” on if lie wants to badly enough. Some one has discovered that common illuminating gas injected into glasses of near beer will give it a real "kick.” Some one will do that some day and strike a match to light his cigarette and then he will take the cure. The tax rush is on and by some “hook or cfitok” we will all have to dig up the necessary amount to liquidate our share of public expenses between now and the sixth day of May which is one week from next Monday, its hard to do but one of the things that can't be dodged, so we might as well smile. Senator Brookhart is not as strong for Mr. Hoover now as he was last fall and in a speech in the senate yesterday “busted off” all relationship advising the members of the body to disregard advice from the chief ami proceed to pass a real farm measure. Its probably the beginning of a wide breach between the radicals and the conservatives and the danger is that the farmers will ; continue to hold the sack as they have the past few years. “Passing of Al Smith is seen”, is the headlines in republican newspapers now. They refer to the fact that John F. Curry has been elected as the head of Tammany to succeed George Oivany, a Smith adherent. Evidently

Mayor Walker has won his point but ’ we doubt seriously If it meant the passing of Governor Smith If he cares to mix up with the game. He is as powerful with the voters in New York , as he ever was and it he ever asks ( them for their support he will receive , it, so he is probably not worrying about it. ■ One of the leading business men of , Fort Wayne and one in a position to > know tells us that he considers Dei catur the best- county seat town in ’ this section out side the large industrial centers. Thats a good reputation and the way to keep it is to continue activities. We need hu industry or two and a little more building. Then ( when the farms coijie back as we are confident they will in a short time, this will really be a prosperous, happy and splendid community. Step on 'er . a little boys, don't coast. The Adams county circuit court room ts to be remodelled. It needs it. For years the room has been inconvenient, uncomfortable and anything but modern. The commissioners will spend fifteen thousand dollars to make that part of the court house up-to-date. Under present conditions it would take a hard hearted judge to permit a woman to serve on a jury , though the laws gives that right. The new plans will include comfortable' ! quarters for both women and men, a library room, consultation rooms for use of the attorneys and an auditorium. while not as large, which will accommodate as many people as now and, more comfortably. Its a much needed improvement that will be appreciated. Household Scrapbook By ROBERTA LEE Glass To give glass a frosted appearance cover it with a mixture composed of six ounces magnesium sulphate, two ounces dextrin, and twenty ounces of water. Bed Springs To remove the dust ami dirt from bed springs, place the springs in the sun and turn the hose on them. The . sun will dry them within a very short time. Soup If soup is too salty add the slice of a | raw potato. Boil for a short time and it will take away the salty flavor. MODERN ETIQUETTE By ROBERTA LEE Q. What should tall women avoid wearing? A.

Is the spoon still essential for semi-solids such as custards, creams and jellies? » A. Yes. . Q. What is the correct way for a servant to present dishes at the table? A.
