I TODAY’S CHUCKLE 1 * (U. R) < London.—All the horror of spring cleaning was expressed in an appeal published in a ’ local "Agony Column” stating that “Husband, downtrodden | tor years, urged to revolt by s I Imminence of annual spring dean, wants moral support." » . — .»

ration lias not only been held op pending an investigation of his position oh matters of interest but there is considerable possibility that his appointment will not be confirmed. Four Decatur organizations, the American Legion, Moose, Lions and Rotarians are backing ball ti tuna for the junior league to be organized here, a mighty flue thing to do. Baseball is good exercise and good sport for the youngsters and when financed and fathered by tiie men of the community is sure to be helpful to the players. The league should attract much attention and prove interesting during the summer. There is room for several more teams. The senate is waiting for the full text of the naval treaty to be officially signed next Tuesday and so are millions of other folks who are likewise interested. By the way, wonder whats happened to all the newspaper boys over there. This is the longest the workl lias waited for a tip on such a document since we can remember. Ought to be some good headlines if they had a Floyd Gibbons on the joli. Kindness always pays gixxi dividends and Derb Smith, a Jay county man will no doubt confirm that. Recently sentenced to sixty days at the penal farm and a fine of S3OO lie was on his way when the sheriff's car was wrecked and all but he injured. Smith did all he could for those in the car and then ran several miles to get a physician. When the governor heard of his act he promptly remitted the fine, which ought to help some. While there will lie some disappointments that the population of Decatur as so far ceusused is not more, we may get considerable satisfaction from tl»e fact that we have shown a ten per cent increase the past tin years which though a little slower titan we hoped for and thought would be shown is after all a very healthy growth. Decatur is an excellent town in everyway and while we don't grow byleaps and bounds we do keep going in good times and bad. We are well over the live thousand mark ami with a little effort can soon increase that. It lias taken so far more than l.OOti.tW words in congress to debate the tariff. If all the political argument had been cut out, and the members had simply devoted themselves to discussing what rates would be fair and right, these 4,000,000 words should have been much reduced. Superfluous oratorycosts money, it delays action, and meanwhile trade is Held up because business concerns dislike to buy goods when conditions are made hazardotts by tariff uncertainty. Orators very frequently take an hour whew fifteen minutes would cover all they really had to say. If they only had to boil it down the way newspaper men have to, congress wonldl get its business done on time. — Kendallville Sun.

ILL ENGLAND INTO COUNTRY FOB HOLIDAY Four Days of Festive Ac-! tivity Observed for Easter Celebration London, April 19 -(UP)- AH England flocked to the country today for four days ol glorious fun in celebration of the greatest public lioliday of the year. Every bus, tram and train leaving London this morning was packed with pleasure-seekers, while automobiles, motorcycles and bicycles carried thousands more into the spring countryside. Many of the excursionists will not return until Tuesday, for practically all factories and business houses will be closed four days. Good Friday as a holy day, ended at noon. During the morning, those Ijondoners who had nol started early for the country attended church or promenaded in the parks as on Sundays. This afternoon, however, London was a deserted city. Perhaps the biggest crowds of the year watched professional football, games, greyhound races and athletic meets this afternoon. Tbmprrow there will also be horseracing, the only sport not allowed on Good Friday. Easter Sunday will be a day of comparative rest in preparation for the grand finale on Monday. Not even rain spoils the Easter vacation, for the English are too inured to their weather to let it interfere witli their pleasures. _—— -o Dennis Striker of Mon/oe township was circulating here today. Dr. H. L. Tennissen Licensed Chiropractor K. of C. Bldg. Decatur If you are sick and have tried all other methods without satisfactory results, try chiropractic adjustments and get well.
