state. ■ !!= Every one should buy all they can in the community in which they live and that includes not only articles at retail but likewise wholesale. When you use a General Electric motor you are helping to keep employed the nearly five hundred who work at the local plant. When you smoke Decatur made cigars you are helping not only the retailer from whom you buy, but the manufacturer who lives here and pays taxes and helps to boost. Several of the largest business concerns in this country will begin January Ist on the thirteen month basis, paying their help on the four weeks basis. They claim the new plan will enable them to check their business from month to month in a more satisfactoryway. However, they will observe Sundays and holidays un’der the regular calendar. Looks as though we are in for a period of disorganization of time in one form and another until some definite steps are taken to uniform it. Indiana has just passed her hundred and thirteenth birthday anniversary and so quietly that except that some one happen to read up on it, the date would have passed almost without notice. Much history has been written during the period, most of it good. Hundreds of her citizens have attained fame in various branches of effort. Indiana has gone forward and is now ranked high as both an agricultural and an industrial state. We are proud of the old Hoosier commonwealth. May she have many happy returns of the day. Jimmy Phelan, the coach who built up a football team that placed old Purdue well at the top this year, lias resigned and it is said will go to Washington University in a similar position, but witli a salary of $15,000 per annum. No doubt Phelan regrets to leave the Indiana tech college but a fellowwill swallow a lot of sentimental ideas when an offer is made with such a salary attached. The thing that muddles us a little is how we are going to keep college presidents for one third of what the coaches draw?
