They are known and they have been reported to officials who while preferring not to cause the lads trouble wish them to know that any more offenses of this kind will be followed by arrests. Bo I sides causing a financial loss to the city the breaking of the lamps means a great Inconvenience to those who reside east of the river. This is no joke, boys. You are being watched. It is a pleasure for the citizens of Decatur to entertain the pastors. elders, delegates and visitors who have attended the spring session of the Fort Wayne Presbytery here yesterday and today. Decatur is proud of her churches and the work they are doing; proud of the leadership of Rev. H. H. Ferntheil, I pastor of the local Presbyterian church, one of the most popular m- n ever engaged in the ministry here; proud of our citizenship and our fair city, than which we claim there are no better. We are always glad to have as our visitors, those of the clergy and the church and we hbpe you have enjoyed your visit as much as we have in having you. Please come again ami often. Rev. Earl Ziegler, dean of the Graduate School of Christian Education of Chicago gave a happy thought in his address at the Presbytery here last evening when he urged the training of more people to assist in church work. School teachers need training, pastors must be educated, professional men in all lines must be fitted for their job and in this modern day when n-eW problems are with us and when we change customs almost from day to day it is certainly necessary that Sunday School teachers and workers in every branch of the church should likewise have training if we are to continue to progress in that direction. which after all is the only real correction of law violations, disrespect for government and other dangerous movements. Rev. Ziegler's appeal should be answered with action, not just temporarily but continued and not only in the Presbyterian church but in all others. The Chicago Herald-Examiner has followed President Hoover as long as might be expected by those who have followed them the past dozen years. When the chief executive disagrees with them, they immediately become anti and “how? Now they have broken with Mr. Hoover because of his attitude on the World Court question and in a long editorial started on the first page of last Sunday's edition they declare he never Was a republican and that he is getting his party in such condition that they cannot possibly win the presidency in 1932. The Herald-Exwminer says the next congress will be democratic and the next president will boa democrat and particularly so if the democrats revert to the policies of Thomas Jefferson "who wrote the declaration of independence to free us from European control.’’ Perhaps thats true for there are many things which point towards democratic success, including the fact that a number of metropolitan newspapers are slipping away from the president and his policies. If nothing else were in evidence Ito show the insanity and extrava , gancc of republican management in | Indiana, the case of the Kentucky bridge would be sufficient. The supreme court has declared that Indiana must carry out the foolish | contract made with the state of Kentucky two years ago, to build? a bridge across the Ohio river at

—and the Worst is Yet to Come r- T - vSwV , *u——n'wwnr* /A I \ fl — 1 JBP - ' •

Evansville. It was the delectable governor. Ed JacKson, ana tne state highway commission who made that contract. The state .of Indiana. pays half the cost of the bridge which has both ends resting on the Kentucky shores. Half tire cost is to be borne by Kentucky which issues bonds to pay its. half. Tolls are to be charged to pay off Kentucky’s half. Vanderburg county is to reimburse the state for half the amount paid by Indiana. Kentucky pays not a penny on the bridge, as tolls pay Kentucky's half. Indiana's half is paid out of the public treasury. It is a toll bridge as long as Kentucky owes on its half. The bridge cost $4,000,000. For a number of years Indiana has had this, kind of government and the people appear to like it. The more millions wasted the more the people smile. Ami they wonder why taxes are high. | Suits were brought to nullify the I contract but it stands and Indiana | must carry it out to the letter. — Hartford City News. o__ ♦ ♦ BIG FEATURES OF RADIO i t * « Tuesday's Five Best Radio Features Copyright 1930 by UP. — .
