THE BRIGHT SIDE: It’s both interusting and refreshing so talk to business men and get their slants on conditions as they are at the present time. Two attitudes are plainly outlined. One . type of man, finding that business is a little slow, is Inclined to let up. He adopts the policy that inasmuch as business is hard to get, he is going to stop and wait until times get better. The other man takes the attitude that business is available, hut that to get it now a man must work just a little harder and think just a little clearer. Talking to a man of the latter ; type yesterday proved a most ap- , pealing experience. This man, cognizant of the fact that conditions are not what they have been, did not seem to be down in the “ dumps by his analysis. In fact, he appeared to be enthusiastic about the future. He regarded changed • conditions as a problem to be faced . and solved satisfactorily. . This man is now making plans , for expansion. He is outlining Improvements to his building. He is working on a business expansion policy and is looking for the right kind of men to employ in this connection. “I just must succeed. I have too much at stake to fail. If it takes a little harder work and longer hours, why i ll just have to . give them. I believe that business is here tor the man that goes at- ‘ ter it. and I for one am going after ■ it,” he declared, as he detailed his • plans. Th:s man's policy is indeed heartening, particularly after listening to a man talk who declares that , "business has gone to the dogs.” —The Frankfort Times. . The sudden death of Prof. Henry , A. Hartman, former superintendent of the Decatur public schools, has shocked his hundreds of acquaint■.anoes here who held him in the higlM-st esteem. Mr. Hartman was a splendid school man and had held important positions in the schools ttl . ot Indiana, Ohio and Colorado. For many years he had been in charge , of the schools in Sidney, Ohio, and last year conducted a vigorous campaign for a new high school building, winning one of the greatest fights in the history of that section and winning decisively. Prior to going to Sidney he was superintendent at Marion, Ohio, and put on a building program there that attracted wide attention. Our sincerest sympathies are extended to the breaved family and ” friends.

The week-end brought its toll of mishaps, breaking all records in Indiana and the list includes auto accidents, drownings, suicides and every thing else. Next week-end with its extended holiday because the Fourth conies on Friday will probably be a repetition unless * every one makes a special effort to be careful, which It seems we won't all do at the same time.

Better watch him. The redecoration of the Decatur library will be a fine thing and much as most of us will miss its Inviting doors the next fortnight, we are all willing to make the sacrifice that this popular building may be improved and kept as it always has been a most attractive place for every reason. Independent merchants will make a state wide campaign to educate the public to the benefits of trading at home and with home folks. There is an argument to their position that cannot be answered and if told in the proper way will be effective. Marion and Hartford City are putting in barbage systems and that's what every good city will be doing before long. It’s the proper thing for besides taking care of the dirt in a sanitary way it helps to keep the rivers and other streams pure. Members of the Decatur Country Club and their families will enjoy the Fourth with an all-day picnic. There will be a lot of fun, including golf, regular and Tom Thumb, dinner and supper, fireworks, games, and just a good time. Better join them. All wc have to say about those guys who sat up in an airplane some five hundred hours is that we know they can hold the record until Gabriel blows his horn without any competition from us. o * v I Modern Etiquette I By ROBERTA LEE ♦ (U JB ♦ Q.
