Indiana League of Home Dallies — TlU' rain was a glorious sample and we hope they furnish it every few days for a while. Its hard to make a farmer understand how he can get along raising less-when it takes the crop from a ton-acre field to buy a good cow. Great Britain has about two million mtn out of work which is too many but what can we say when we have about twice that many looking for a meal ticket? There are only 119,000 motorcycles in the United States though a lot of folks think there are that many pass their house each evening. Senator Robinson, of Indiana, seems to be always in wrong. He was one of nine to vote against the ■ treaty as compared to fifty-eight who favored it. Now he will be with the administration. A news dispatch says ,that lowa has 30,000 nu n employed on a highway project but doesn’t state whether thats just on one road or not. Anyway it ought to solve the unemployment problem some. Ct yourself one of the new premium lists of the Decatur street fair and figure out in which departments you wish to show. Surely there is some where in the book where you will find interesting reading. The street fair here will be a gieat big. enjoyable event, with more interest than ever before. Flan to enjoy it. Lets forget our worries and make it the best week D eatur ever had. Just now you can help by assisting the finance committee a little. A man over at Lebanon tried to save his hat when it blew in front of a train and was killed, which was rather expensive at this season of sales when he could have got a new one for about 98 cents. Some times it seems it doesn’t take much to excite us und we act foolishly. We still insist that this will be a Better country when every one owns his own home and by the way this is the best time you will probably ever see to get one. You can easily purchase property now at less than cost and on your own terms and thats what the wise folks are doing. In various towns and cities where the boys have caught the tree sitting epidemic, parents are forcing them down before they become exhausted. Its certainly foolish for the youngsters to punish themselves for after all setting up a record of hours during which you have made yourself ridiculous, does not avail much. Mr. Leslie will fool around until he becomes known as the traveling governor. He lias made seveial trips to Washington since New Years, spent several weeks in Florida last winter, returned last week from Salt Lake City and is

♦ 1 TODAY’S CHUCKLE f- (UR) ♦ Montevideo, Minn.—The Sunday dinner "drumstick" and "wing" problem was nearly solved when a duckling was born on the Stanley McGuire farm near here with four legs, four wings and four bills. The duckling tiled in a few minutes. ♦ <■ now enjoying a vacation at a northern Indiana resort. The cares of office do not seein to weigh heavily on that gentleman. If the present ratio of deaths by automobile accidents continues, it is doubtful that the present laws of "no speed limit" will be called a success. It Is expected that by the end of the year the total will reach 2,000 with five or six times that Injured. Evidently laws that permit people who drive cars to use their own discretion are not so healthy for the populace in general.

Now that the London naval L ‘ treaty has been signed it is being )’ hailed by those who favored it as the greatest accomplishment of the administration. While we doubt - that it will save the average per- ; son greatly we are hoping it may 1 be the start of a world wide peace . plan in the not far distant future. Militarism is one of the greatest harms of the world and we have ’ paid for it in many ways the past 1 dozen years.' A blow torch in the hands of a mechanic working on a car in front ’ of a garage suddenly exploded and 1 the flames quickly enveloped the man's clothes. Terrified, and cry- ’ ing out in pain, he ran to the home of a neighbor who endeavored to beat out the flame with her hands. As a result, the fire was communicated to her clothing and to her house; she was burned, her home was damaged and the mechanic was terribly scarred. Incidentally, two automobiles were also destroyed. When clothing catches fire, according to literature published by the National Board of Fire Under- > one should get down on fho*7roiTnd or the floor and roll, in an attempt to smother the flames. If possible wrap a rug or other woolen material around the body, starting at the neck, to avoid inhaling the flame. When one remains standing he soon becomes a living torch, and the flames spread quickest in this position. Running is still worse, as that fans the fire to greater intensity. The National Board’s literature is widely distributed in an effort to reduce the suffering and losses from fire. Approximately 6,000 people die annually as a result of fires in homes, 31 per cent of the victims being ■ women and children. Fire occurs in an American hose every two minutes in the year, on the aver1 age. No further incentive should be necessary to urge the American 1 people to protect their homes and • families from the ravages of fire. o • | Household Scrapbook By ROBERTA LEE • • Paper Patterns Use thin needles instead of pins when fastening a paper pattern on ■ fine silk or satin.

Decatur Dollars Should be spent with Decatur merchants .... The local merchant—your friend in time of need—when times are hard and credit is needed — deserves your support. He carries in his store just as good—or better —merchandise as can be bought in the “out-of-town” store, and is here today, tomorrow or years from now 7 to stand back of the merchandise he sells. He spends his money in Decatur — helps in the upkeep of the city, its civic movements and improvements. Does he not then deserve your whole support? Independent Merchants OF DECATUR
