Bitterness in campaigns never helped ; any one and never will, and it sei I dom makes votes for those who thus engage. “Keep on swinging" as was said in that page advertisement last evening and eventually you will knock the ball out of the yard and bring in three runners ahead of you. Advertising to be effective must be continual, but its just as sure to win as a home run from Babe Ruth's bat or any other. Sixteen years ago a Massachusetts woman gave a tramp who knocked at her door a meal and a fifty-cent piece. He told her that some day he would repay her. He died in Texas a few days ago and his will made public yesterday gave the kindly woman one-third of h's estate valued at $90,000. Os course that don’t happen often. According to the latest dope a double jointed treaty providing for limitation and reduction of naval craft*between England, Japan and the United States and with France and Italy in on "humanization of submarines and capital ship holiday," whatever that means, will be signed next Tuesday. The •agreement is yet to be read and studied ami approved with probabilities that some flaws will be ■found and plenty of objections offered. Fort Wayne is to get her postoffice building right away quick because Congressman Hogggtook the time to look after getting it through. We believe that since the government owns a lot here and Decatur has been on the preferred list several years and since the government wishes to build a | .number of buildings this year a i little effort would start the work. ’ And wo would like to know why we can't have it if we can't. Surely we are entitled to that much attention. Chicago has another serious problem as the result of being broke. When temporary financial aid was given recently no plans

for keeping the street cleaning depaitment going were made. Consequently tilth and rubbish is piling up in streets and alleys and with the warm weather of the past few days'that fact became quite noticeable. Now they are talking about what can be done to keep Chicago from being advertised as the “dirtiest city in the world." | Seems like it just can't stand many more records. Tins is graduation week in seven ■ high schools of Adams county, the first being held in Hartford town-' ship last night. Exercises will be held at Monmouth tonight, Kirk- 1 land Wednesday, Pleasant Mills I Thursday, Monroe Friday, Jefferi son Saturday and Geneva next ' Monday evening. To each of the seventy-two graduates, to Prof. Striker and to the teachers, we offer our sincere congratulations. May each boy and girl who receives a diploma reach the star to which lie is hitching the wagon. Big league baseball formally i opened the 1930 season today with . games in both the National and . American leagues. The first official game of the season was that ot Boston and Washington yesterday but the regular schedule for all other teams opened this after-' noon. Its still the great national game and in those places where good teams are supported it is ex-' pected this will be the greatest season in history. Give most any one an afternoon off. a bottle of pop and a bag of peanuts and two well matched ball teams on the diamond—gosh that's real sport. We. Have been tuned for some! time not to be surprised at any thing that.happens in this modern ' age but we admit we never expect ! ed to see a time when New York ! theaters would be built in such i manner that jhe balcony seats j would be arranged for the "high' hats" and sold at the high prices’, while the first floor will take the place of the old "nigger Heaven," j but thats what is happening now. The Moss theatei* are being erected with that in view, the idea being that properly constructed the | upper seats will relieve eye strain ami aid acoustics. Every where the tax problem is again causing considerable worry which is not new but probaldy more serious this year for two reasons. First, urged by the Federal government at Washington every corporation i- making strenuous effort to employ as many men as possible in the performance of public work. Thats meant in a fine spirit but after all the people must pay the bill and with a reduction in appraised valuation this year because almost every kind ot stock, grain, products and every thing else is lower, there is but one thing to do to meet the budgets — raise taxes. If there is cure it lias never ' has been discovered. The same folks who petition for improvements, howl when the tax rate is announced. n > « Modern Etiquette I By | ROBeRTA LEE ♦ —(U.R) ♦ Q.
