The anniversary edition of the Detroit Free Press, published last Sunday, is ( one of the most complete ever printed in any city, giving a history of Detroit, old and new, and containing much interesting data. The anniversary sections of the paper were ail rotograveur an# besides showing the great advancement in banking and business, likewise proved that there has f been somtthing doing in the printing line the past hundred years. One of the needed improvements iff - Decatur is the resurfacing or repaving of the down town alleys. Traffic has caused them to break through and one hole after another make them almost inaccessible. .The cost would not be great and the public would surely approve it, at least that portion which has use j for these thoroughfares. This j should be done after the alleys I have been again torn up to replace the present light and power electric lines. Walter Strong, one of the leading newspaper publishers of this country died Sunday evening from a heart attack. As general manager of the Chicago News since file death of Victor Lawson, six years 1 ago, he was recognized for his ability. In his college days he was an outstanding athlete and it is believed over exertion during those days, weakened his heart. He was forty-seven years old and was considered one of the real leaders of Chicago.

Ciucago is putting on u ten-day celebration of its "resurrection" which means coming out from the Thompson administration. They expect to soon be out of debt, free from gang control and again a safe, sane and healthy city in which to live ami visit. They will get ready for a big 1933 when the world fair will be on. The celebration now in progress is one of the most elaborate and unique ever put on by any city, large or small. Cermak is in a position to prove himself a great man. It certainly takes a lot of nerve for the contractors for the new postoffice building here to come into this community and refuse to even try to employ any local tradesmen. The contracts have been sublet we arc told, and these subcontractors are bringing their help with them. The idea of letting the public building contracts this year was to employ local labor at prevailing wages and this was incorporated in a measure which passed congress the last days of the session. It seems that the present contract was signed a few days before that which however should not prevent the contractors from cooperating in the spirit of the attitude taken by government officials. Efforts are now being made to persuade those in charge to offer employment to local men. There has been a great deal of talk about mounting taxes, and official figures given out recently show that in 1900, 81,000,000 people in the United States paid an average of $19.39 in taxes. In 1928, the last year for complete official statistics, the population of this country had increased to 120 000,000 and the per capita tax had increased to $105.20. The increase of the past few years cannot be charged to the democrats as they have not been in power in the state or nation. During the past thirty years, eight years have been democratic administrations in both the state and nation, while the other twentytwo have been republican. The administrations of Marshall and Ralston are well remembered by the older people of Indiana, and the same may be said of the administration of Woodrow Wilson. Some years ago, Abe Martin told of the person who bought a pair of shoes "with money saved during the Wilson administration.'* — Columbia City Post. o Lessons In English | e Words often misused: Do not say "He is our common friend,” Say I "our mutual friend.” | Often mispronounced: Referee.

This is because Syenol is a compounding <>t only those medicines which have proven to do tlie most good. It just seems to work magic in cases of nervous exhausj® MRS. MARIE BUELL Princeton, Indiana Uon.y digestive disturbances, loss of appetite, restless sleep, rundown conditions and general fatigue — often bringing relief where tlie use of other remedies have failed. Is it any wonder then that Syenol was of such great help to Mrs. Marie Buell? Here is what she ’ says: “For two years tny stomach was in a terrible condition. I ’ hud awful pains from gas, and ' could hardly breathe at times. I kept belching up wind; my liver was sluggish also and seemed to fill me up with bile that made . me dizzy; and I was always constipated. All in all. I was badly discouraged. But Syenol has made me feel like a new person. * I never have gas, bloating or [ pains in my stomach any more. My liver is working properly again, dizzy spells have left me, ’ and 1 am relieved of constlpa- , tiou. I have new strength ami . energy and think Syenol is simply wonderful." j Like Mrs. Buell, you will be amazed how much litetter Syenol i can make you feel ill a short time. It contains no opiates, narcotics or harmful drugs. So you can take • it with confidence. Don't delay any longer! SYENOL can be secured at the Holthouse Drug Co. and other . good drug stores.
