It makes not so much difference whether you are rich or poor, its the knack of being content. There is so much to make you happy if you look for it but most of us spoil every thing by "wanting the moon" or something else just as impossible. The editor of "The Latch String," a trade publication in Chicago advises this: .fjearn to like what doesn't cost much, the trees, fields, woods, brooks, fishing, rowing, hiking, learn to like reading, conversation, music; learn to like gardening, carpentering, puttering; learn to like the song of birds, the companionship of dogs, the laughter and gayety of children; learn to like pipe smoking. • ■ Learn to like work and to enjoy - the satisfaction of doing your job as well as it can be done. Learn to like the sunrise and the _ sunset, the beating of rain on roof and windows and the gentle fall ’ * of snow on a winter day. the form and movement of summer clouds • and the roar of the winds. Learn • to like the mystery of women; . learn to like plain food, plain ser- " vice, plain cooking, to like people • even though some of them may be “ / as different from you as a Chinaman; learn to like life for its own ' sake ami to like to be alive; learn ”• to keep your Wants simple. Refuse to be owned and anchored by —things and the opinions of others. TTfih is the path to happiness and _ rrian all try it. — -Jifforts of Decatur dub women tu,jnake the lO.OttO books in the —- Carnegie library available to citiw— zens all over the county seem — ffazable and most desirable. A similar plan is now being used suc771 ccssfully in fifteen Indiana counties and if proper interest is manitested can be done here with little cost and thus provide this wonder- * lul- opportunity for every citizen of the county to use the books which cover every line of liter- " attire. For years the library has • ■ proven its worth here and we are sure by the plan proposed of ro-

It 1 TODAY’S CHUCKLE « (UiR) 4 Melton Mowbray, Eng.—Rid- : era to the Cottesmore Hounds who lost all trace of the fox discovered that the animal they , | were seeking had doubled ! back and had been trailing the pack for several miles. toting the volumnes to the varloui towusliips monthly, thousands ol others over the county will soon i learn its great value and derive ' hours of genuine pleasure. ' . . !. Representatives of Clevelands banks and savings and loan com panics got together on a 1930 piece of advice to the people of Cleveland. Their opinion Is that there never was a better time than this year to buy or build a home. They did not mention outright sales. Nearly all home buyers borrow to build and save to pay'. For most home builders it is a teu-to-fifteen-year job to complete the deal, but the joys and satisfaction of home ownership last forever. Home ownership comes near being the keystone of American credit. The land is indestructible; the loan is the buyer's spur; the material makes the buyer the customer of American industry. The experience is the best discipline to which a family can dedicate its energies. —Collier's Magazine. Speaking to members of the International Business College at Fort Wayne yesterday during the chapel hour. Rev. O. E. Miller of this city admonished them to live clean, to work hard to accomplish those things to which they dedicate their efforts and to "plan for life, throbbing, thrilling, life reaching on out into the eternities beyond." We should not measure our lives by stocks and bonds but by the accomplishment of those things taught by the greatest Master of all time. His thoughts were timely and deserving of genuine thought by every one. Among the towns slated for a li*w postoffice building in the appriation bill in congress is Berne and we are hoping they secure it more promptly than has Decatur. We have been promised a Federal building some twenty years and for more than half that time the government has owned a lot here, piesumabily for the purpose, but always something seems to arise to change the plan. It is two year.- since Mr. Hoover, Senator Borah and others promised to solve the farm problem and bring about prosperity and we don't seem to be much nearer that greatly desired goal now than we were then. Committees can't do it. A good crop tit's year and then some leal action regarding prices is about the only hope we can see. According to newspaper dispatches. the president wilFiiot dis-cu-s the tariff bill as it passed the senate and from what we can learn about it, we don't blame him. We don't know any thing good he could say and of course in his position he can't say any thing bad. Its a mess. A Decatur citizen told us today that he is planning to build a modern four-room apartment house in Decatur and if his plans carry out as now look assured, it will be a (inc improvement, an aid to the community and a credit to the bulkier. A little progress along tiiat line would certainly help every one this year. "Slowly rising temperature'' is the announcement from the weather bureau and wo haven't found any body yet who will be mad if the predictions come true. The past week has been any thing but pleasant here and a heap worse in the northwest part of the state. t _ ~ — ('oiiasset. Mass.. —(UP) Every night of Luther Bates’ life was spent in his home here.

31 K f They Overlooked | the Diamonds ® THERE is a modern flippancy to the effect that “What you don’t u- know won’t hurt you.” It is also a fallacy For instance: The farmers of Kimberley were a disgusted, disheartened lot. Bi They said the soil was too rocky to earn them a living. Some of jg them left. Others died in poverty. And all the time their children were playing with diamonds. u But the farmers didn’t know. They thoug'ht the priceless gems were pebbles. ffi Don’t be like those Kimberley farmers. Know! qp f seek opportunity in some distant place and overlook the diamonds that are daily within your grasp. Know! Jfj Advertising is a mine of opportunity. It tells of values you S wouldn’t know about if it were not there to guide you. The secret of economical buying is information. The man or woman who is best informed is the one who buys to best advantage. || Hi Read the advertisements. i£ Know! I Decatur Daily Democrat
