Well one sure thing it will be some time until they are able to issue a “Victory loan.’’ An editorial writer, remarking .about the new trade schools which Henry Ford proposes to locate throughout the country, predicts their failure, "for Ford makes no mention of basketball, football or the other fruits which justify our institutions of learning.'' The public schools at Wheeler, i Indiana, closed last Friday on ac- : count of the death of “Billy, the, 1 Goose." The fampus goose, was a town pet, became nationally famous through its quacking over the radio and the whole town felt heart-broken over its death. Whether the schools should be closed so the children could attend the funeral is debatable, but anyway they were and Wheeler got on the front pages. Former President Coolidge is now sojourning in southern California and when asked by a reporter why he was traveling around the country, remarked that so many invitations came to him while he was in the White House, that 1 he felt it a "duty" to visit these people now. “Silent Cal" may have his ear to the ground and it the dissatisfaction keeps on in < Washington, he may change his famous saying of “1 do not choose to fun”, to "I do choose to run.” The building of good roads leading to Decatur will bring shoppers here and that's one of the best ways to increase sales. Every effort should be made to. get the state highway commission to take over the Pleasant Mills-Willshire road, the completing of the improvement of State road number 27, and the carrying on of State road number 16 west of Decatur. Decatur has the stores, the m?r- , chapdise and the desire to serve the public and those who wish to profit can do so by making this place their market.

!* 1 TODAY’S CHUCKLE ♦ (U.R) ♦ Hull, Eng.—John Conlon, 63, an Irishman whoso rhymds appear periodically on the walls of the Hull jail, complained on his 67th conviction that “Shakespeare I got (I’hink and was praised for It. but they didn't arrest Shakespeare like they pinch- | ed me.” ♦- - ■ ♦ t unity to climb up hi the business world. The bank president became infatuated with the girl and soon promoted her to a high position In his bank and then had the directors vote her a trip to Florida, together wtth his family. The otlier day the bubble burst and the loss to the bank is estimated at a quarter of million dollars. The whole town is worked up over the affair, as small towns generally do and both the banker and his cashier are In for it now. The city of Decatur is entitled to and should make the charges for water service connections, which rates were petitioned for through the Indiana Public Service Commission. Actual records of cost show that the average cost for each water tapping connection has been sl9-88 and the city is asking that a charge of S2O be made for bringing the water line from the mains to the property line. No objections were offered by any citizen at the public hearing in this city Monday and the rates will probably be granted. Cither cities and utilities make similar charges. President Hoover Is adopting former President Coolidge's plan of talking things over with senators and congressmen around his breakfqst table. Yesterday he invited Senators Watson, and McNarv, Speaker Longworth and and a few others to the White House to discuss the tariff question. It is not known if he served them sausage and pancakes as the former president did. but the way Coolidge got away with it. probably convinced Mr. Hoover that it was a good thing to do. The country is beginning to feel that it would like to have President Hoover do other things which Mr. Coolidge did iu his stern New England way, while a resident of Capitol Hill. A farmer’s club, called the “Sons of Wild Jackasses” and having for its slogan. “Bray for farm relief,”' has been organized at White Bear Lake, Minn. It has a membership of 200 and is the first club of its kind to be organized in the west and northwest. Every since Senator George Moses of New Hampshire, made his famous speech, in which he classed midwestern insurgent senators as "sons of the wild jackass,” there has been growing sentiment in the west against this attitude and the i.ew club is the result. The emblem of the club is a white badge bearing the silhouette of a vigorously kicking black donkey and the county agent of White Bear Lake is the first president of the organization. They might send Hie White Bear after the eastern boys. The Federal government has authorized the acquiring of sites within 50 miles of Indianapolis tor Hie new Indiana war veteran's hospital and those cities near to the capital, namely, Frankfort and Kokomo now stand the best show al securing the institution. A score or more cities, including Fort Wayny, Bluffton, Angola. Rochester, Logansport and Terre Haute, offered sites and sought the location of the government, hospital bul with the. decision from Washington they have been eliminated from the race. Determination to locate the hospital within 50 miles of Indianapolis, was prompted, it was said on account of railroad facilities within easy reach of the eanitol and the desire to have k near the center of the state. The few remaining towns in the eligible I list will more than likely make a I strenuous fight for the hospital ♦
