We don’t know what it is I btlt there is a lot of room between j New York and Hollywood as tho; distinguished scientist will discov-' er in making that trip. Among the other things we ought to do this week is to start aThristmas Saving account in one I of the local banks. It will assure ' y-eu of the right start for the New I Year and a fund for shopping a | year from now. And your savings ' draw interest. , The payment to farmers in this and surrounding counties of more than $600,000 and an agreement to pay another $300,000 in thirty days with interest should help to drive old rrmn pessimist cut of existence. The -wgar factory is a great industry and many people are again discovering that fact. ■ A New Jersey judge has declared that the eighteenth amendment , to the constitution is unconstitutional because it was never approved by a vote of the people as provid' d by an amendment. Now it the supreme court upholds that v,hat a joke has been played on a! lot of folks the past twelve years, j Several small factories are de-1 sit ous of locating here and the De-1 catur Chamber of Commerce is ; busy investigating them. Thats j the proper pep boys. Get them j and go after some more and in- j elude a canning factory. Don't be ■ whipped. We can make 1931 the | best year the old town ever had j and just that sort of hustling will do it. Keep after 'em Bill. The Good Fellow club is going' over, thanks to a splendid com-1 munity of the finest people in the I vorld who are again demonstrating that they do not permit conditions pl times to stop them. With a gold finish the next few days the fund will be the largest ever raised here since the Delta Theta Tau began this wonderful work some years ago. Thats great and we are proud of you all. The new police force of Indiana seems to be al'rt. Bandits held up a bank at Clinton yesterday and the police soon on the job, trailed them to the Illinois line.

killed two of them and captured the four others, paying no attention to machine guns and sawed off shot guns. A little of that kind , of work will make every one have faith in a state force and favor I paying them sufficiently to keep f them on the job. ■ Another thing that might be done the next several months would be , to clean the St. Marys river i through the city. The old willows ''along the river and their spreading i roots should be grubbed out, the ' old logs nud tree limbs taken from the water and the banks cleaned it would not only make the river a nicer stream but would help as a drainage body until some other means of taking care of the sewage could be made. A well known Fort Wayne man tells us that while driving to this city two teamsters drove in front of his car without signalling and unless he had been driving slowly and exceedingly carefully, serious i accidents might have occurred, i There seems to be a somewhat : general Idea that the man with the I wagon has the right of way but he I is subject to the same laws so far jas signals are concerned as the j driver of an automobile. If he fails I Ito let the car driver know he is coming and swings over in front of him he is taking a serious chance and frequently accidents are thus caused. While the man I with a team of course has just as ' much right as the other fellow to use the highways he is subject by I every right to the same rules, it i would seem. Any way, its best to be careful and then some. From every depression come new names, new faces, new fortunes. new business leaders. There are always a few who do not wait for opportunity to repeat her knock at tho door —and show credentials. There are always a few —even as there are a few today—who with foresight and common sense go quietly into a low-priced market, stock up raw materials, lajfttp supplies of every kind —even to household and personal supplies —and get ready for the inevitable ' upturn. If you- look about you. y u will note that most of the big . fortunes of today, and the success- : lul men, came up out of times like I these. Not blind buying, but in-i I telligent buying, based on a comI plete picture of one's business in I full view. Not a worm's-eye view | alone, but the view of a man who on a clear day sees ten yea.’* ahead. Neyer fear, from this trag- : edy cf plenty there will come new names for the business headlines ,of tomorrow. They are in the I making now. —Nations Business. . —- $ Household Scrapbook 1 By ROBERTA LEE | Russet Shoes Soiled russet shoes can be made to look like new if they are cleaned with lemon juice and then polished with a solution of beeswax dissolved in turpentine.
