The Kirkland case seems to be over, but the disgrace of it will hang on for years to come, regardless of whatever may be said in refense of Judge Crumpacker or any -one "?Tse connected with the hearing. Spend a few dollars in advertising. Business is improving and ycu can help it by showing your confidence in it. Offer attractions and get the people into your store and you will be surprised at the business you can do the next few weeks. The postoffice contractors owe it to this community to employ local labor and to spend some of the money appropriated for here, in Decatur. That's the purpose of the government spending the money and its wrong to take our share to heip some other city. We watched a young boy stand in the middle of the street and wave down an approaching car just for fun. The driver of the automobile had to use all his brakes to keep from running the lad down. Surely that's a dangerous and foolish thiug for any child* to do and parents should talk to the children who do it in emphatic terms even if it takes a paddle to make it strong enough. Each day we notice dozens of tourist automobiles on the streets here and one driver told us that he would like to stop if he could find a convenient place to park We might make some arrangement whereby local people left the down town parking space for our visitors for when travelers get out of their cars and move around they usually spend some money. The death of August Scheiman, a leading citizen of North Preble township, lias caused much sorrow over the county for he w widely known as a clear thinking, active man, interested in those things of greatest importance to the community and always willing to do his part.

j every way and our sincerest sympathies are extended to the bereaved family. >. Next week some time the acts of r the 1931 legislature will go Into r. effect it is predicted. They have lt been ready for some time with the I- exception of the bus bill and there r was some fear that a special session would be called. It is probable •> ~ that some one will test the fact that 0 the acts were not published within ” the time prescribed but it seems 5 likely that will not be held ground for invalidity. d ~ ■ ■■ — If we have to cancel the payments due us from England and France for reparation money borI rowed to retain their good will, we will be about as well off without it. , ■ If some one owed you a thousand dollars and said he was going to get mad if you insisted on it being paid you would probably tell him I to pay and go jump in a creek. There is not much difference between individuals and groups of individuals. t This old world is not so bad even if it is not now what it once was so far as making a good living is I concerned. It is still a great place and there are a million ways in ■ which to be happy. First of all we must fit our expenditures to our incomes. Its a different era and its surprising how happy we can be if |we just decide to do so. After all racing over the country, sleeping I in camps or bum hotels, eating all . i kinds of foods and imagining we were having a great time was largely in our minds. A year’ ago the world, so far as this community was concerned, looked about as drear as possible. [Banks in this citv and over the I . country were going through a rough I time and general business was at i a standstill. Today we are over the ; worst of things and every banking ■ institution is going strong, public i I confidence has been restored and every one is doing better. We be- ■ lieve we are on the way to brighter 1 nd happier days than those of the j past year for the people have shown | their sound judgment and their I wisdom and there are signs of pro- ■ gross that are unmistakable. Remember “Freckles” and "The [Girl of the Limberlost?" Maybe you | know about Limberlost cabin in | Wildflower woods on Sylvan lake I near Rome City, Ind. Anyway you | know about the late Gene Stratton j Porter, her books and her love for the life and ways of the woodland. '| It is announced that the Wayne i area council of Boy Scouts has 1 acquired Mrs. Porter's one-time I dwelling, Limberlost cabin, and will i use the famous house and environment as a recreation center. I “Freckles’’ comes to life as a Boy ■ Sjccut. It is to he assumed, that I those who enjoy the privileges and benefits appertaining to this wholesome enterprise will be enabled to make themselves familiar while > I I young with the writing of Gene Stratton Porter. The chief value of these writings is in the enthusiastic interest they arouse in the r young and old reader, leading to a closer and more intelligent study ' and appreciation of nature's charms. 1 —Lafayette Courier and Journal. — o ♦ ,— w Lessons In English Words often misused: Do not say, I .hall stop a' Rochester for several weeks.” Say, “I shall stay at Rot hester."
