Mussolini played second fiddle when the Italian King's daughter was married to the Prince of Belgium. but not for long. The announcement has been made that the Italian Premier's daughter is engaged to be married to a nobleman and Mussolini saw to it that the official announcement came from his lips.

The road mileage of the world is figured at 7,805,629 miles, of which the United States is cerdited with more than three million miles, or nearly half. The United States is the only country that has more than 100,000 miles or road, Italy being second with 94,731 niik-s. No wonder America has three-fourths of all the automobiles in the world and those who travel the highways or visit the large cities wonder when more roads will be built. Road building in this ■COUntry will continue to be one of the major undertakings for a score of years. The debate on the wet and dry question continues in congress and many foolish remarks are made by the senators and representatives In debating the question. The other day in the heat of argument, Congressmen Beedy and Sproul, quoted Scripture in trying to make their point and one of them went so far as to say that "If Jesus were on earth today He would be a fanatical dry." What right have ’ these congressman to bring in the uame of Christ and go so far as to express an opinion as to what He - Wpuld do?

The people of the state owe these heroic men and defenders of the early settler's home a perpeptual place in history. For several years the shade trees in Decatur have been affected by a moth, which seemiuglv does some damage to them. Entomologists advice the banding of the trees to prevent the climbing of the moth. The following advice is given: “For protection against the spring canker moth, shade trees should be banded, entomologists warn tree lovers. Since the moths are on hand every year there is always present the danger of a heavyinfestation and damage to shade trees, especially the elm. of which the- moths are particularly fond. Several successive attacks of the canker moth will kill a weak tree and weaken even the stronger trees, making them susceptible to other pests such as borers. Shortly after Feb. 1 the adult moths era erge from their pupae cases in th*ground. They are about a half an ’'inch- Ibng and are gray in color. Tlie males have wings, but fortunately the females do not and must crawl up tile trunk of a tree to lay their clusters of eggs in the branches. These eggs hatch into larva, soon after the tree begins to leaf, and these pests feed upon the young leaves.'’ The world resepcts those who succeed in spite of adversity an 1 handicaps which would crash the average person. This is because man knows how hard it is to rise to high attainments even when one is possessed of all the faculties and perfect mental and physical health. Great strength of character is required of those who must overcome seemingly insuperable obstacles before conquering failure. From earliest days the history of the world has been replete with such heroic figures who have overcome mental and physical ills that would have caused ordinary mortals to quit without a struggle. The story of how Demosthenes talked with his mouth full of pebbles to cure himself of stuttering and to become one of the greatest orators of all time is a part of the world's knowledge. There is the remarkable case of Helen Keller, born deaf, dumb and blind. Alexi under Pope was so deformed as to ■ be unable to walk and wrote his 1 immortal poems * which suffering : excruciating pain. Milton and I Homer were blind when they wrote 1 some of their epic poems. Dr. I Charles Steinmetz, the electrical ' wizard, hail a dwarfed body and ' was a hunchback. Annette KellerI man, renowned so- tier physical beauty and as a sw'immer, was an invalid as a girl, and Theodore y Roosevelt was so weak and sickly as a child that he had to hav - private tutors. In these indomitable and resolute men and women there is Inspiration for everyone. ) | Herb Fuhrman of Fort Wayne I visited In this city Sunday.

Mr. Kiting was first appointed a member of this council on May 8, 1917, and served continuously thereafter until March 21, 1928. when he resigned on account of ill health. His deatli marks tlie passing of one of Adams county’s good citizens; for seventy-seven years lie had lived in the county, lending his aid, influence and endeavors toward making the community a better and happier place within which to live, and he lived to see the county develop from a swampy wooded land to one of the best ami finest agricultural counties of the state. During the years of his official services, his one idea and purpose was to do for the county that which in his opinion would be for the best interest of the people he endeavored to faithfully serve. His 'counsel and advice was always deeply appreciated. Therefore, Be it resolved that we adopt this resolution as our last earthly tribute to Mr. Eiling, in greatful appreciation for all that he stood for in private and official life and honor.
