Cloak makers In New York are on a strike which won’t bother most of us for a few weeks but if it goes on to that extent that It effects prices next fall and winter, it will be anything but a joke. There Is more activity in local real estate than there has been in years end It includes about every kind, new residences ami business blocks, remodeling of old ones, new fronts and exchange by sale or trade of numerous properties. Seymour Cowman says "sporadic 7ame or national prominence is after Ml ashes in a man's mouth,” indicating that ho is sore and peeved and ■disguested in general with the political game and he is about the 'steenth millionth man to discover that. " Each year folks are warned to be rareful about the use of explosives on the Fourth and each year there is •a long list of casualties. Already -many cases from over the country Aave been reported and of 'course Ah ere will be many more. Don't act foolish, its dangerous. ■ Wfe * Scarface Capone doesn't seem to like jail life as well as lie thought he Would. He is using about every means possible to get out now but with poor success. Won't hurt any thing to keep hint where he can’t attend gang meetings called to discuss -how to defeat the laws. The changes of Decatur real estate ‘signify that eonditons are good in Decatur for when business is quiet usually there are few real estate transfers. Tin- sale of several business properties here during the i>ast few days indicate a sound ami safe condition lor win n purchases are made there is always a feeling of confidence. A New York man rented his seven-year-old son to a negro who bound him in such a wav that he appeared to he crippled, placed him in a cart with a tin cup in his hand and thus begged an average of five dollars petday. A children’s society investigated the matter and Hie father and the negro were sent to prison as they deserved. Members of the city board of health who inspected the business section yesterday, declare that all eating houses, bakeries anti places where food are handled are in a sanitary, first class condtlou. Tliats fine and we hope when the trip over the city to Inspect conditions of residential districts, the same kind of a report will be possible. The Fourth of July tomorrow, a great holiday but one which Is not observed in the old fashioned way any more. In the old days we had a picnic, patriotic speeches, reading of the Declaration of Independence, plenty of pop and fireworks. Now its an auto trip some where, a game of Jfijf.orjqomqthfng else, but we still that tlierej is us much patriotism now as ever—just a different way of showing it If there could be auy doubt in the minds of any one that there is not a general desire which amounts to a demand from the people ot*the county for an all time rest room in this city,

that will be dismissed if you will take the trouble to go up to the couuly auditor's office and look over the petition signed by hundreds of women from every part of the county. The petition was circulated by members of the civic department of the Womun's Club of this city and was most convincing argument. Mayor K'rick appeared before the commissioners, urging that plans be made at once and promising support of the city council. Since the county officials have previously stated a willingness on their part, seems as though tlie problem has been definitely solved. The public we know will sincerely appreciate it.

Grover Whalen, New York's highly advertised police eonimisioner, not long ago got a good deal of fun out of the fact that the London police still use bicycles In making their daily rounds. He seemed to feel that this compared rather poorly with the snappy, fast-moving motorcycles of the American cop. However, the London officers seem to travel faster on i bicycles than our American police can , go on their motorcycles. At any rate —during 192 S there were just eighteen murders in London. The police solved every one. Eleven of the murderers were arrested, tried, convicted and i sentenced, and the other seven com mitted suicide. Compare these figures—not witli New York's, for the contrast would be too staggering; with some lesser city, like Kansas City, for instance. Kansas City, in 1928, had 105 murders. Twenty-three j murders were tried, convicted and: sentenced; five were acquitted; and the rest seem to have escaped molestation altogether. Any American police official who laughs at the Lou- i tlou force is slipwing extremely poor j judgment.—Kokomo Tribune. __________________ _ MODERN ETIQUETTE By ROBERTA LEE Q At a wedding, who furnishes the ushers with their boutouniers?

My! you look lovely to-night’ SHE knew the compliment to be true —for the last pimple had vanished. If you are one of the embarrassed—and men are not exceptions —with skin blemishes that linger, and sometimes leave scars, you must realize that the logical cause may come from the blood. A clear, smooth, velvety skin bespeaks loveliness. Men admire it. Women praise and secretly envy. Hope, joy, happiness, and even love, may depend on the possession of a clear, unblemished skin. On the other hand—skin eruptions are outward evidences of the condition within. Authorities state it is an indication that the body’s power of resistance to disease and ... infection is low.

sturdy* powerful men, or beautiful, healthy women. When you get jour red-blood-cells back to normal, that sluggish letdown feeling, loss of appetite, boils, pimples, and skin troubles disappear. You get hungry again and you sleep soundly; firm flesh takes the place of that which was once flabby. You feel strong. Your nerves become steady. You are resistant to diseases. S.S.S. is Nature’s own tonic for improving the appetite, building strength, and clearing the body of so-called skin troubles, by increasing the red-cells of the blood. S.S.S. is made from fresh vegetable drugs and has stood the test of over 100 years. All Drug Stores sell S.S.S. in two sizes. Ask for the larger size. It ia more economical. Copyright ID2S S.S.S.
