The days keep slipping by and it may be well to call attention to the fact that there are only about forty shopping days between now and 1 Christmas. It will soon be time to 1 do your shopping early. I ■— Judge Sutton urged the Legion boys : to get hack of an airport for Decatur and they promised to lend their best i efforts in that direction, a worth-while , cause and one by the way that every : town will have to become interested i in soon. ’ — i Joe Laurent talked at the Armistice , meeting of the 1930 program for the Leglion and'it contained a number of civic enterprises, support of the Boy Scout movement, a bigger and better . agricultural street fair and cooper- , ation in all things for the betterment of this city and county. The “jackasses", as the western and middle west senators have been named by Senator evidently propose to show that gentleman that they can “kick’’ as hard as their fathers did. Have you raked the leaves off the yard so they can be taken care of by the street force? That’s the request of Commissioner Fisher and is made in good faith because he wants to get the city in the very best condition for winter. Every time they open the New York stock exchange the prices of the various stocks, good ones and poor ones alike, get an awful “kick in the slats.” It might be well to mark them all zero and let them start over for it looks as though thats about what is proposed by those who are doing the shake down. The chairman of the public service commission of Indiana blames the newspapers for the unpopularity of their actions, but the newspapers have only published what the commission did and if that was wrong they should blame no one but themselves. Publicity is a good means and often times the only means of keeping the commissions in the Tight line. Newspapers over the country, particularly in the east, declare the recent election in Indiana the most hopeful sgn which has come from this state in several years and most of them predict that the voters will continue to show their good sense by voting against bossism next year. The fall of Coffin in Indianapolis seems to be quite popular both in aud out of the state. A seventy-one-year. old woman down in Georgia conspired with a young man to murder a printer and collect h’s insurance. They did it but now both have been convicted to the electric chair. Its one of those cases where it seems life imprisonment for this old heathen might be just as good as charging up another electrocution on the state records. The new city officials elected In last week’s battle ihust qualify by Thursday of this week, it is claimed. Most of them will do that of course, but up In Columbia City the republicans are worried lor fear the only man they elected will not be able to

TODAY’S CHUCKLE Chicago, 111.,—(UP)— Mrs. Adeline Felton. 98, has ordered her first set of false teeth. make the grade. Immediately after he had voted, James Brown, a candidate for council left for Canada on a hunting trip. Now they can't locate him and the chances are he will not be able to return to look after this important matter. The boys who served overseas, those who saw service In the American camps and those who did their bit at home during the World War, observed Armistice day with a dinner at the Decatur Country Club last evening. It was attended by two hundred men, the program was excellent and the spirit of cooperation in the community is sure to bring results. Rev. Harry Fernthiel, the principal speaker told of numerous incidents of the war and ‘gave us numerous wholesome and worth while thoughts as to what the present and future benefits of the Armistice are and will be. Paul Graham told of the organization of the Legion and its purposes and Joe Laurent told of the program tor 1930, both mighty interesting. France Conter called the meeting to order, Father Seimetz asked the blessing, Chalmer Porter presided and there were short talks also by Dr. H. O. Jones of Berne, Judge Sutton and Leo Ehingen It was a great session, pepped by songs led by Paul Sauers and the feeling of friendliness and good will was not to be denied. Every one who attended is earnestly hoping the meet will become an annual custom for from such affairs are sure to come many good things for the city and county. • BIG FEATURES • • OF RADIO • Tuesday's Five Best Radio Features Copyright 1929 by United Press WJZ, NBC, network, 7:00 CST— Purol Hour: Goldman Band.
