The moral is that if you think such tilings whisper them to her. ’ So far none of the schools in the south part of the sttae which are out of funds have announced any changes in the basketball sche Ikies, so it Is probable they will keep going until after the tournaments are held early in March. You are invited and urged to attend your church during the special two weeks service and to bring a friend with you. It is well to cease the battle for existence a pertmt each year and to think ser- . lously about the ages which follow life on earth • Senator Heflin is threatening • dire, vengeance if the democratic • committee doesn’t change the ruling which keeps him off the ticket. He would even join the republican party if coaxed a little, but the sad part-pf it is that they don't want Jumt-ither. The automobile shows are on in the larger cilies and the 1930 models are said to be the greatest values ever offered. You can see them on display right here at home and you will marvel at the wonderful cars you can get anil the low prices at which they are offered. A lamcaster, Ohio, woman has set up a new record that it is likely will not be broken for some time though competition is open to the world. She gave birth to two sets of twins in one year. The fust pair were born the first week of the year and the second on December 31st. The Wabash “nuts” who for several years have taken a dip in the Wabash river went through the joke again this year on New Years day. It gets the town some publicity but its a very foolish practise from which some one will get pneumonia some day and then it will be just 100 bad. It would probably, be easy Ip settle the school finance problem if some one would provide the funds. Passing the hat is a slow process and imposing a thirty-cent special tax would be bad poltles. Looks very much as though about

The supreme court has decided to take a chance on a riot at Garv when It. O. Johnson takes his office and it Is quite likely that if the old police force can't control it there will be a new one appointed by Mayor Johnson which can.

The tinie to defeat candidates not , wanted is on election day and not by court injunctions. They are going to fool around down in Washington until some mean democrats suggest that they may be trying to get rid of some records. Fires at the White House and Capitol within ten days and each destroying some valuable papers should at least cause those in charge to be a little more careful. Looks like a few guards or nightwatchmen might be used to advantage. A two weeks revival service in each of the churches which have membership in the Decatur Ministerial Association is now in progress and there is no doubt that much interest will be renewed and with perceptible gains for each. Programs of merit which will interest ail who attend are being announced and the next fortnight should be one of great good and of lasting benefit to the community. After three years Pennsylvania now has its sovereign two votes in the U. 8. senate. But our two senators! Shades of Cameron, Quay, Knox and Penrose! Never in all history was there such a corporation strangle on our throat. "There is no law preventing the governor of Pennsylvania making a damn fool of himself if he wants," said Senator Norris. Unfortunately no, senator. Next November, however, the people will speak.—Uniontown News Standard. They say it is true. Those sweet things in long skirts, dotted Swiss muslin, wide-brimmed hats sashes, parasols, et cetra, are coming back. Heaven bless 'em! We have no fault to find with the “modern girl,” but it would be nice, just for a change, to cast your eye once again on those airy, fairy creatures of tlie past. May be tile eye would grow dim and d ill from long exposure, but anything for a change. —Hartford City News. For several years as the !>u» and truck auto business has grown there has been more or less complaint about the'double jointed trucks which haul automobile bodes and also about the larger sized trucks. Frequently they park in parts of down town sections where th'y cause much inconvenience to others for a long time. Sturgis. Michigan, is the first city in the middle west to take action to prevent that, an ordinance now being in progress of passage there which will make these trucks park in the outskirts. The time is not far distant when specific laws will govern the truck business throughout all states It seems. — o—— Household Scrapbook « By ROBERTA LEE • 'I'jrUII 11 * kl Greasy Woodwork Us ■ a cloth dipped It) turpentin to clean greasy woodwork.

There's a small boy in this town who had a birthday recently. His mother asked Mm what he wanted. He replied, “Ice cream and noodles!” There's a combination for you. Did you read that prohibition agents in New York had confiscated a lot of mince meat? It had too much brandy in it. Come to think about it, we've noticed whenever we eat six or seven pieces of mince pie ■we always feel sort o’ groggy.
