Boost the Good Fellow club along so that every home in the community will be happy on Christmas day. Its time to start the old cry—do your Christmas shopping early-and j its just as good as in years past. 1 The sooner you do it the better for I you and your friends and the clerks I ami every one else. — This week is an excellent time to I start your 1931 Christmas saving. The three banks in Decatur will be glad to explain plans and you will find it the finest way in the world to save during the coming year. If President Hoover doesn't fire Senator Watson as the leader of tlte majority in that bcdy he will show a weakness that may event- | uaJly put him out of the running to succeed himself in 1932. And the fight is on. The city of Anderson is forced to t duce exp nses and a number of employes have already been dismissed. The state tax board re-tfH-ml the rate asked by the city council and to come in under the fixed it is necessary to reduce the working force. The new state officials should be able to pick out efficient assistants for it is reported that there are ten applicants for every job. The rush to the pie counter, always heavy, is greater this year than usual because under present conditions a job is sure a jcb. An advertisement this week is sure to bring results even greater than usual for the people are in the buying mood. The winter season is at hand and Christmas is near, two things which always make us shop whether we feel like it or not. “Lugs’’ Moran wants $15,000 for a stcry of his life and some newspaper syndicate will probably be foolish enough to pay it. If he doesn’t mend his ways, some of these days they are likely to pull a black cap down over his head and ask him what he has to say and then the public will get enough ot his stcry free. Real Good Fellows will get their subscription to the Christmas fund in (arly this year because the buying is a bigger and more important jcb than usual. There will be more clothing, fuel and food to supply the pooY people than usual.

Don’t put It off. Drop a dollar or two in cue of the boxes at once. Now that the football season is I over the basketball fans take the sport stage for the next several ’ months and that usually gets just Jas exciting and interesting us the' others. We have something doing j ■ in this country every day in the j year. .. There is only one farm on Mani hattan Island, a few acres at Broadway and 213th street where the owner persists in raising vegetables. He doesn't propose to be driven from home though he could probably sell his little tract for enough to buy a whole section of' real farm land in this part of the country. ======== Governor Leslie is wise to work with the new democratic officials instead of opposing them. No one disputes the fact that he could if he wished to, make the next two years very unpleasant for the new j . men, but to do so he no doubt j realizes, would make a flop of his ! own administration. He has too | much gcod horse sense to do that. ! The forty state police in Indiana (today are new, appointed by Frank Mayr, who 'assumed office as secrei i tary of state at noon. The state I jpolice force up to this time has I been somewhat of a joke and it is ! to be hoped that if the expense of maintaining this branch is continued, the new officials will do something besides call attention to Id automobile tags. Santa pleased hundreds of boys ■ and girls liere Saturday aJid the ' 1 Christmas spirit was manifest.! | Considerable buying was dene the' ! first day and from now on we will all be busy looking for gifts for loved ones. The sooner the buying is out of the read the happier the holiday season will be and there are only about twenty days left to [ do the job. — Harmony still reigns in legisla-1 five Washington but the session is joung and there will not be much r.ason for either side breaking faith until after the holidays. It usually takes that long to get down to the point where a test is made of promises. However there are indications of a desire on the part of about every one to meet the present crisis cf the industrial world. Fun in the senate is starting early—Senator James E. Watson is opposing the president’s wish to I take up the Root world court proto- j col at the short session which open-i ed today. Os course the senator; has never been a great admirer of the president and from now on it looks as though there might be some open warfare. Looks like they are after the scalp of the ‘ miracle man.’’ Hard times sound like a myth j when we read that something like I 120,(MH) people attended the Notre I Dame vs. Army football game in Chicago Saturday afternoon. The crowd spent a million or more no doubt going and coming and staying and yet we talk depression. After all if we all really desire to make the wheels cf industry move and it would be possible to get every one to act in unison, there is little doubt that we couln move them off at a gait that would remind us of the old days. The democrats in the legislature plan to enact if they can a voting legistration law and in this there is much of value to those who desire cleafl government and clean elections. The bill provides, for the county auditor to register the voters and once is all you need to arrange your voting rights unless you move. . There is no question but that such a law prevents wholesale stealings of elections and while seme expense and some trouble is attached it seems to be the only lyay in which honest elections can be conducted.

QUICK RELIEF FROM CONSTIPATION That is the joyful cry of thousands since Dr. Edwards produced Olive Tablets, the substitute for calomel. Dr. Edwards, a. practicing physician for 20 years, and calomel s oldtinje enemy, discovered the formula for Olive Tablets while treating patients for chronic constipation and torpid livers. Olive Tablets do not contain calomel, just a healing, soothing vegetable laxative safe and pleasant. . No griping is the “keynote” of these little sugar-coated, olive-colored tabl lets. They help cause tlie bowels and ' liver to act normally. They never force them to unnatural action. If you have a “dark brown mouth” —bad breath—a dull, tired feeling—sick headache —torpid liver—constipation, you should find quick, sure qnd pleasant results from cne or t” o of Dr. Edwards OliveiTablels, Thousands take them every night to keep right.

As they stood in a half circle about him, the doctor felt her pulse and informed them she was dead. The ycuths, according to Dr. Wharton, fled from the room and sped away in their automobile. The physician pursued them and fired two shots, he said, without effect. They were arrested later. Dr. Wharton said he believed the girl had died from a skull fracture, presumably received as her head accidentally struck the porch at the Thompson home, where she was carried after taking several drinks.
