It won't be long until distances in this country will mean little In loss of time. Where there is so much smoke —there must be some tire and most -folks feel that at least the friendship —between Presdent Hoover and Lontan Tand Doran is a little strained if noth*ing worse. - We are just a little afraid that the .high toned men being selected as “members of the farm commission are "not exactly in touch with the real • problems of the average agriculturist -but its too early to judge them. Let's • see what they do. •* - ■* In nearly all surrounding towns and -cities, the stores are being kept open -An the evenings, at least two or three nights a week and in a number ot 4he towns, each evening. During the summer season, this Is a decided convenience to many farmers and the practice could be followed here with advantages. It is claimed that tw'o army aviators have perfected a scheme whereby they can accurately take photographs two hundred miles away. That's'going to make it hard on the office boy who takes an occasional day off to at.end his grandmothers funeral If they snap him at the ball game or out playing golf. Most of the stores in Decatur did a larger liusness than usual last week, due to the Dollar Day and due to the extra advertising. There is no reason in the world why you shouldn't continue to do as well if they will ' keep up the lick. We don't want you to spend money with us or in other ways for advertising unless it brings you results. If it does, then you should be happy to spend it. Keep 1 up the pep and make this your biggest and best year. It is easy of course to criticize 1 newspapers and their policies hut not always fall. You may not agree with every thing the editor does, in fact he doesn’t want you to. He can only express his opinion and whether that meets your approval or not, it at least brings up matters of the greatest importance, for discussion. What, he says may aid you in forming your own conclusions. The average newspaper stands tor high ideals, tor bet- , -ter conditions in general, for moral) I and for those things most important »■ in the fife of the community it repre- j - sents.

Millions of people all over the _ world rejoice because of the rescue l • of Commander Franco anil his three ■“ companion." after being given up as - lost.

sent Indiana In the national contest for the Thomas A. Edison scholarship, a worth honor won from twenty-six contestants. Young Sturgis may not win the scholarship though we sincerely he#e h® does, but he has shown much ability to go this far and wether or not he becomes the successor to the great Edison, he can make himself and his ability of great good to his country and he will no doubt. The same can be said for those other boys who tried for the honor. Each of them has an opportunity to go on and to reach his goal, whatever H may be. The glorious Fourth comes this week and will be duly celebrated. May we ask every youngster to be as careful as possible that he may not injure himself, some one else or cause destruction by fire? Many of the old practices including the spellbinder and the greased pig have been junked with the horse and buggy and the family album but the firing of explosives is still popular and perhaps always will be. Seems as though the average American has just so much craving for loud noises that he just must let off the steam. He may do that legally the next three days but that should not prevent him from using good judgment that the list ot accidents may be reduced to a minimum. Commendation is due to the county road superintendent and his assistants for the condition of the roads. Most of them are equal to the state roads and when the comparatively, small amount per mile for inaintainence in comparison with the large sum used for state roads, is considered we can appreciate what it means. Ixist evening we drove over the River road north from here and though it lias been used excessively this year because of the detour on the paved road, it is smooth and in splendid con dition. We are all prone to criticize Why not be fair and give the men who have charge of this important work a word of praise when we feel it is due? o MODERN ETIQUETTE] By ROBERTA LEE Q. When accepting an invitation by letter, should one state the exact date ( and hour given in the invitation? A. Yes, Say. ‘I shall be delighted to attend your tea on Wednesday, July17th, at four o’clock." This avoids any misunderstanding as to the time. Q. Should the hostess always rise when greeting guests and also when taking leave of them? A Yes, always. It is very discourteous not to do so. Q Is it permissible to leave the spoon in the coffee cup. while drinking? A. Never. It should be left in the saucer. o Household Scrapbook By ROBERTA LEE Towels ' To keep bath towels separated, where there are several membets in the family, attach each towel to a spring clothespin. To make them attractive each pin can be enameled and < initialed.

At the age of eighteen he deI elded to see the world. He wis In | Ireland nt the outbreak of the Wolrd I War and joined the Royal Irish Fusil-I I lers. During months of fighting in France Young was wounded three times and given the Military Medal for bravery under fire. He remained in the army until 1923 when he was given an honorable discharge ami started to work on a farm in Bellas' Things went nicely with the soldier of fortune and he received money from his family in America to pay h'n passage home.

Can the lesson be plainer? Do you want to succeed? One man decides to work and save and that one wins. You can do the same. It may not be easy but it is the price that success demands.
