Let s get started on spring activities. help ourselves, help Decatur and do good for all. "What do congressmen's wives <lo while congressmen legislate?”, is tile question asked in a feature article coming to the editor's desk. Gosh, we don't know. You tell us. Among other things congress has increased the tariff on the humble clothespin, the duty now being twenty cents a gross, as compared with ten cents. The Congressional Record contains several pages devoted to the debate on the question and it took the vote of VicePresident Curtis to decide the matter in favor of the taric raisers. That's one job out of the way. Now let s do something else. The world is full of good talkers. There are not so many good, thinkers, who inquire into the facts about everything. Being scarce, these folks are valuable. Don't hush ep your son on the railroad train, when he asks what those steel rails are for and what that locomotive is doing. The passengers may laugh at his shrill vo ce and serious face, but he may lie a future railroad manager. Boys who seek real knowledge are scarce. Encourage them. Don't silence your young daughter, when

It . TODAY’S CHUCKLE ♦ (U.R) ♦ West Ham, Eng,- When British Justice considered six cases in the local police court, two Americans, one Swede, one Swiss, and one Chilean were I . | among the accused. j she asks you to define some word you have used. She may be a future college president. Her desire for absolute truth is a trait ' that lands people in high positions. If you are irked by having to answer the 25 questions which the I census enumerator will ask the average householder this spring, you may be thankful you are not the director of the census. He has to think up and compile 20,000 inquiries. eacn on? aimed at revealing a different set of facts. You may be thankful, for that matter. . .that. y.cm ".re. not a farmer. 11? alone has to answer 350 questions, ranging from the number of his lucres to the number of his baby ducks. If the enumerator asks your age at first marriage, don't be offended. He doesn't care personally, but it is desirable that the government know whether marriage is being postponed and what is the most successful age of marriage. Only by asking these quest'ons can it learn. Thtse are some of the points about the great American questiim-afld-answpr camII ign. officially the fifteenth census. which will begin April 1. At u cost of $40,000,000 the census bureau wil lemploy 100,000 enumerators to count the heads, radio sets, automobiles and homes of approximately 120.000.000 American citizens. Voters of Allen county should be happy over the fact that Harry M. Williams, editorial writer of tire I Journal-Gazette and one of the Democratic leaders of the state is to lie a candidate for state senator. The cry has been to elect competent men to the legislature. , Mr. Williams fulfills all these requirements and above all is a man who is able to think and act in a way for the general good of the public. His long training in the newspaper business, beginning with printer, reporter and up the ladder as special writer, city editor, managing editor and for several years editor of Indiana’s greatest morn ng newspaper, fits him admirably for the office he seeks. His mission in being a candidate is no doubt prompted by his fine spirit of service and of giving of his time and talent in the formulation of public leg slation. He knows public sendm nt. interpretes it evefy day in I bis editorial columns and his election to the state legislature would ! give that body a leader, a worthwhile member and the public one of its most 'able representatives. If there is sincerity in the public's rtes're to send men of high caliber to Hie legislature, the voters will not he-itat' to send Mr. Williams |to the senate next fall. If we lived it.' Allen county it would be a privI ilege for us to vote for the distinguished editor who so unselfish- . ly offers to serve the people of his district., if they ti.iough their vote s'gnify their des-re to employ him. All sorts of lavish praise has been given to basketball players' for their ability to win. They began |to hear the victory songs in the regional* and sections, and were pretty well accustomed to them by tne time they came to Indianapapol's for the high school tournament. For a long time the players had been keyed to a high pitch and as the end approached those who survived where called upon to tio more and morv in the name of their school and of sportsmanship. It is not surprising that some of them crack when defeat comes. Imt this year there was less heard about hysteria! players and fewer tears were shed. There are indications that the boys are learning ■ how to lose as well as- to win. It I there is any value in sports, aside I from the exercise they afford, it is that fair play counts. Every play-

i er knows that he or his team can I not always win and when defeat comes (mere are two ways to meet it. One is by making excuses, setting charges that rarely can be I proved and acting In it way that : does not win popular support. The * ether is to accept defeat philoa- | ophically, congratulate the winner i r.iKl look forward to another seas- . on. Here and there, ns the teams ■ were winning their way into future schedules, word cyme this —..1 ■ — ————
