Earnings for the three months ending March 31st, last, with the General Electric company totaled $83,335,015, a gain of nearly twelve million dollars over the same period last year, indicative of a trend of .times that ought to make every one optimistic. If greater interest is not manifested in securing the easements on road sixteen from Decatur west, it will be some time before the highway is taken over by the state commission and longer yet until we have it paved. Its those commit nitie» which push their claims that are recognized. There is just about one more week left in which to secure sufficient acreage to assure the operation of the sugar factor here. During the next few days a thousand acres should be secured. Don't let up until this has been accomplished. Aside from selecting candidates in the coming primary there is another duty which should interest the voters. You have been asked to decide by referendum whether we are to have daylight saving in Decatur or not. The vote should lie large enough to really decide it and it you don't vote you wil be considered just one of the « folks not interested in what your community does. Plan to vote May 7th. Joe Oberto, one of the men caught in the raid on the still near here says ■ he is appealing his case under the - Monroe doctrine, but he didn't know - what the Monroe doctrine was or just how it effected his cage. Probably he thinks he can get help from some “ other nation and it looks as though ** he will need something like that to keep him out of the "jug” several years. . It took several years and millions „ of dollars for the law makers in the U. S. A. to discover the coni borer is not as dangerous as advertiser. Now comes the Mediterranean fly. said to flourish in Florida and congress has appropriated $4,250,000 to - fight it. Most any excuse will cause congress to let go of a lot of “jack . these days. Some of it seems a little extravagant. Ohio does not propose to remain passive when taxes are increased. Recently the legislature added a cent to the gas fax there and a regular howl that looks like It may rock the state politically has gone up. In this state we just take our tax increases and give those who do it a vote of confidence at the uex[ election. Something is evidently wrong one place or the other. You will want to hear Boyd Gurley on “Keeping up with the World." when he gives his address,to the sixty graduates of the Decatur high school on the evening of May 24th. Mr. Gurley is one of lite most forceful writers in America and to him much credit is due for attracting attention to official acts in Indiana which needed correcting and which Is gradually coming. His address should be of value to every one for Mr. Gurley is an independent thinker and not afraid to say it. Now they are getting some where with the flying stunt. A parachute that will hold the plane has been built.

“TODAY’S CHUCKLE Providence, R. I. —(UP) —Impatient, Clarence Carlin went to the home of George Toste and demanded payment of a bill. Enraged, Toste bit off Carlin's left ear. Sympathetic, a jury awarded Carlin 32,800 damages. It was tried out a few days ago and worked perfectly. A plane went up to a great distance and the engine was shut off. It fell at terrifflc speed but the big sixty foot parachute caught and held It. Fine business that means eventually safety in flying and while talking about it, thiuk of the real nerve the fellows had who made the test. Boy's Week starts April 27th and a proclamation to that effect has beer, issued by Governor Leslie. This event started in 1920 for the purpose of making every one think of the lads of the family and community and to make a special effort to help them. Men should turn their minds back to the not so long ago when they were youngsters, looking for a chance to get busy and hopeful of an opportunity to serve. Its a fine thing to think of the boys in the sphere in which they live and to render to them such recognition as well as them know that we love them, need them and want to help them. A recent analysis of income tax payments indicates that women control 41 per cent of the nation's wealth, ami 35 to 40 per cent of the custom ers of large investment houses arc said to be women. This is a great change from the time when women were usually financially dependent on 1 men. A vast portion of the country's wealth is passed over to women in , the form of life insurance money and bequests from wills. Many of them do not as yet have any idea of how to handle or invest money, anil the amount of life insurance funds wasted through poor investments is something enormous. Women who have considerable money are usually rather shrewd investors now. The losses occur to the people who can afford them least, to pathetic women with meager' savings, who will buy one of those sure thing stocks that are positivelygoing to double in price, but which often turn out to be based on someone's dream.—New Castle Courier. o MODERN ETIQUETTE By ROBERTA LEE Q. In the most modern table service who does all the carving? A. The cook. Q. It a tablecloth has lace insertions may satin or *< color be placet! under it? A. No; it should be placed on the bare table. Q. What is the conversation based upon that always pleases and entertains? A. It is based upon equality, topics of mutual interest. o Household Scrapbook By ROBERTA LEE For the Sewing Room Keep a small horseshoe magnet in the sewing machine drawer and it will be found very convenient for picking up dropped pins and needles. Clothes Lines Boil a new clothesline for about twenty minutes before using it. It will not tangle as readily, will last longer and prevents stretching. Boiled Eggs Dip the eggs in cold water before putting them in the boiling water, and the shells will not crack. o — Political Announcements FOR CITY CLERK Please announce my name as a candidate for the Democratic nomination for city clerk, subject to the decision of the voters in the primary election on May 7th. I will deeply appreciate your support. 98tl0 MRS. ALICE CHRISTEN — o - ■■ ■ - Coals for Newcastle Newcastle-on-Tyne, England, Is the center of the coal Industry of Northumberland and Durham. The phrase, “carrying coals to Newcastle,” appears In an anonymous sermon to the people of Queen-Hith, advertised in the Dally Courant of October 6, 1709, and published in Paternoster row, London. The phrase Implies unnecessary labor.
