It is announced that only seven people in the whole wide world are smart enough to understand the Einstein theory and we not only admit we are not one of the seven but have no desire to be. A woman writer advises young grooms to train their wives during the first few months of married life. Well, how about the wives doing a little training about that time, then perhaps they can both get along. Satani didn't finish his drive but he went as far as lie could and farther than most of us could have done with that black hood tied so tight we couldn’t breath. At least most folks are convinced the young man was not a lakir and that his thrill was not an easy one to perform. Merchants wh > really put effort into Dollar Day were well repaid for

it, from what we can hear and we hope the next one, if it is decided to Irold a similar event, will be participated in by every merchant. Besides increasing the volume of business, please remember that most of you have made friends and that's the biggest asset. Don't judge the other fellows business. It doesn't do you any good and then you might be wrong. Some times you think some one else is making a great profit when if the facts are known he is only building his business for the future. Any way you shouldn't waste time in trying to make things harder for some one else. Just get busy and make your own hay and help the other fellow if you can. That makes the best community. Bathers up at Evanston must wear coats on the way too and from the beach or pay a fine of from five to two hundred dollars for indecent exposure. Os course we presume after yon get to the beach you may discard the coat and wear trunks, on the theory that hose who see you there will not be shocked. Bnt seriously this new older may be a sign that we have reached the limit of nakedness and thats something. Six of the salesmen for the Shafer Company are to move here permanently, making this city headquarters, meaning an increase of that much to the population and whatever benefits come from citizenship so high grade. We hope 'hey like it so well in Decatur that they convince all the salesman of this progressive company to join their colony here and we assure them they are moving to one of the best small cities of America where they will find a genuine welcome. Governor of many states are cooperating with Thomas A. Edison to help him find his successor. The great Inventor, after half a century & in whip|t he revolutionized fdoderii lifd, is seeking a youth of unusual capabilities who may perhaps be able to continue the work he has so well started. To the high school boy who gives the best answers to one of his questionnaires. Edison offers a free colfege scholarship. One boy from each state, the one consider-

TODAY’S CHUCKLE Columbus. 0., —(VP)—Because a witness for the defense allegedly smiled at a juror, attorneys for Lottie Leona Kirkland, who sought to contest the will of her foster mother, have filed a motion for a new trial. ed the possessor of the highest ability in scientific subjects, will be given a free trip in August to Mr. Edison’s Orange, N. J., laboratories, where the questionnaire will be presented to him. Each of these boys will be entertained and made a gift of an Edison radio-phonograph. We douM that another Edison will be found. This miracle worker is unique. Yet we have no doubt much rare talent will be discovered in the search, and several promising youths will be given an impetus that may result in new benefits to humanity. Therefore this enterprise is more than commendable, it is a particularly lovely gesture of a man much beloved, revered and ad mired—"another” of whom, however, we fear cannot be found so easily.

The new gun-toting law may not be a 100 per cent success, but it is accomplishing much when it cuts down the number of those who carry revolvers. The fewer gun-toters any community has the better for everybody. To date only seventeen of the 109 who have applied for licenses to carry guns in Marion county have had their requests granted. Any statute that curbs would-be gun-toters to that extent is a good thing. Eventually it may be possible to get public sentiment aroused to the point where even the seventeen will have to go unarmed. The mere fact that 109 people rushed in for permits to carry guns shows the extent to which the practice of being armed prevailed in this and other counties. No doubt most of those 109 have revolvers and have been carrying them. It would be interesting to know how many times any one among them ever had occasion to use a revolver. It also would be interesting to know how sma.l would be the chance to use a gun. if occasion were presented to any among the seventeen who have permits. Attempt at drawing that weapon probably would mean death in stead of safety. The man who thinks

he is protected when he carries, a cealed weapon is deluding himself. The innocent people killed by mistake and by accidents far outnumber the hold-up artists slain by gun-tot-ers. The chance of being held up. even in these lawless times, is about on a par with the danger of being struck by lightning. A gun in the pocket of a reputable citizen is always a source of danger to him and those about him. —Indianapolis Star. o —, *»«•«****•*•*•*** * TWENTY YEARS AGO ’ * From the Daily Democrat File * Twenty Years Ago Today *»*t****4i*«**«*** June 28 —Marshal Butler and T.

'BATHER WEARS SUIT SHOCKING TO DEAUVILLE! Twelve-Piece Suit Held Together By Strands Lets in The Sun By Princess AH Fazel 1 Deauville. June 2S -1 UP) Deauville I wants to know just where a bathing ' suit ends and indecency begins This million dollar sit Ip of sand wants to settle for all time the troublesome question of just what is a bathing suit. The trouble grew out of the fad of solar-ray treatment whic h has held over from last summer ami is ex tending from the shoulders to other areas of the back. Deauville has only o:ie l ew and that is that bathers must wear bathing suits. There the law stops and leaves the test to imagination, and the smart Paris dressmakers who furnish the bathing suits for Deauville have plenty of imagination. Trouble started recently when a !’:> ' i rlsienne stepped ou »f her bath h with her latest Paris creation. I of three minutes there was a rio. the beach; in Ide of ten photographers had used all their plates, and inside of an there w ’ a dozen exact dupllcr' < of the ' It really wasn't a bathin'- suit nt all. it was more like a collection of a d .zen bits of cloth held together with a gloden str ands. There were pieces her e and. there whete they could do the most good and they we.e kept in place by hands of golddn webThe Parlsienne protested that she was a fervent devotee of the stir. c:vt and that her anatomy needed plenty of sola: contact. But Deauville, which admits backless costumes, side-split trunks and low-cut armholes, seemed i to think that bathing suits should be in | one piece, or at most two, but certainly not 12.

court case growing out of alleged indecency in beach dress, but the court ruled that Deauville is Deauville aim indecency impossible. The famous beach is little changed this year. There is nothing new. unless it Is the new sense of modestv on the- part of the' beach police. The h< tele and casino are already crowded to the doors, and Deauville' is still the most expensive and yet the cheapest resmt in Europe. It is possible to spend BI.tWM) a day there, and yet It is possible to take tho cheapest ride in the world at Dean ville Just n short distance away from the casino where stakes are spoken in millions, is a Terry boat w hich carries pawwengers from Deauville to its more prosaic sister beach, Trouville. Melore the wtti the ferry charged one sou a ride, or the equivalent of one cent. The same ferry is still there manipulated by the same two old salts and the charge i« still the same, one sou in F.ench copper, which is today worth on-fifth of a cent. That is undoubtedly the cheapest ride in the world, but you have to spend several hundred dollars ,1 day living at Deauville in order to enjoy it. o ■ — ' - • •«••******••• • BIG FEATURES • • OF RADIO • X***U»**»«««K f J ay’s Five Besjt ■*' Features United Press (.. ’ '.’•<l , ' throughout.
