There is nothing new under the sun. We know you all Intend to be careful over Christmas to avoid fires but it doesn’t hurt to call attention again to the fact that each year at this time there are thousands of fires over the country.

Just a couple of years ago you remember in a Missouri church building, a tree took fire and some thirty people died as a result. Protests are being made by residents Os several small towns along the Erie because of the removal of trains which makes it almost impossible for them to receive mail and we are with them in the ’’kick." Under the new arrangements papers to Wren, Preble and other points along the Erie are a day or more late which of course makes trouble for us and every one concerned.

Birds Art Decatur Pet Shop Attract Unusual Attention * - —— —- - - ——— ■ ■ ■ —I— Miss Eleanor Ellis of the Decatur Pet Shop is the possessor of three beautiful green shell lovebirds which she nas raised in a regular size canary cage. The fact that the lerve birds mated in the small cage and that the young ones have lived to be as large as the parents, is quite unusual, as, according to bird books, the particular variety of bird demands much space and the company of miny other birds.

The only difference detected in the younger is
