The farmer who plants sugar beets is not only helping himself by adding this crop and rotating with grains but he also assists many others by providing labor and by helping in the important great need of the resumption of general business activities. Its an opportunity to serve your fellow men and a,d yourself at the same time. Beet contracts are coming in steadily and those in charge are pleased with the outlook. It is believed that the big job of securing 12,000 acres under contrast will be concluded in a very short time. Those who contemplate growing beets this year in this territory should immediately get in touch with Mr. Calland or one of his assistants. Good news from the Decatur Castings Company where added orders have increased the number of employes and done away with tile short week. A large number of men, it is reported are now on the pay roll there, employed six days a week. Its fine and we hope it keeps right on with that kind of a record and by the way if there is any one who can do that job. its Jimmy Cowan, the ixipular and tire'ess manager. Mr. McMillen and others of the Central Sugar Company wore more than delighted with the big meeting held here and so expressed themselves. It was one of the best sessions of that kind ever held here or any where else. Mare than 1.200 farmers, all interested and all pleased, cheered the speakers and expressed their desire to cooperate. It is wonderful that we are having th s opportunity at this time and we must succeed. Lets do it quickly and in the best way possible for all of us. The passing of James J. Corbett, the "Gentleman Jim" of the prize ring, takes from the sport arena one of the most popular men who ever donned the gloves. His vfrtory over the famous John L. Sullivan many years ago gave him the title of world champion which he held for many years. Prior to his success in that line he had been a bank clerk in San Francisco and he never lost the dignity acquired in hi« days in that profession. As •* writer, *ii actor and a lecturer he

I made good and certainly showed I rare ability. A Racine woman worked three days to put a jig saw puzzle to- : gether and was just concluding >t 1 when her husband came in and I found no preparations for dinner, r. 1 He busted the table and scattered “ the puzzle and the tired and disgusted wife had him arrested for disorderly conduct, declaring "the 0 1 “ jig is up." So while we argue that o 0 the new craze is a great thing for 5 those who desire to relax, it might ® be well to remember that such 5 ' 0 things can be carried to an exll treme. The legislature will have its busiest week in an effort to get the big program far enough along that . adjournment can be taken in time | for members and state officials to : attend the Roosevelt inauguration. !It looks a little doubtful that this > lean be done but if a few admims-. tration measures can be acted upon I with speed it is possible that ad- 1 journment will be taken, sine die, a day or two before the 4th. So far the public generally approves the work and unless burdensome tax measures are enacted, the verdict wll.probably be a pleasing one to Governot McNutt and his assistants. Daniel N. Erwin, one ot the best | I known men of the county, widely! J loved and admired, died suddenly I , Saturday evening. His passing . j was unexpected, for an hour or | . two before he had visted friends . down town and the news of his' passing shocked the community. Mr. Erwin, the last of one of the j .: best known families of this conn-I Jty. had been active in business and I . ■ politics many years. He was an ardent Democrat, had served as county chairman and in every cam- 1 i-1 paign, did splendid work. He serv--11 ed as sheriff of the county with r i credit two terms, was a leading 1 11 realtor of Decatur and was success-' i-! tai because of his integrity and his j i ' sound methods Few men were 11 held in higher esteem than Mr. ■ Erwin and the sympathies of the! t entire community are extended to] s the bereaved widow. His advice s and his help will be miss'd by the 1 many who had learned to confide in him and to listen to his suggestions. ’ No serious differences need arise - over the transfer of the state police 1 and the determination of their i duties as members of the newly--1 created department of safety. A 1 study of the previous arrangement I revealed the necessity of enacting s special legislation because the pc- - licemen technically had beer, en-j ■ rolled as deputies of the secretary j ;of state There is no reason, of > course, why a state policeman • should be anything more than the name implies. The public also! will approve the plan to confer] • broader police powers on the state* ? organization. Heretofore, the mem-' 1 bers have been restricted to traffic duties. The transfer bill provides that the executive department may assign to police such duties as may; seem advisable or necessary from! time to time, including duties now' ’ performed by deputy fire marshals. ■ ’ While the force will continue to 1 specialize in enforcement of traf-l ' fie regulations, its services should available wuen needed in, any type of 'aw enforcement.—lndian- - lapolis Stqr. 0 ___■ City Holds Rainfall Record Aberdeen, Wash. — <U.R> — Aberdeen isn't known for many things, but it holds the rainfall record without a dispute.

— Here are 21 more juvenile patterns from the Daily Democrat Wonder Package, the package containing 12 sheets (each 24 by 36 inches) just crammed with over [BOO different patterns. The group shown above is only half of one of the large Sheets and I when you consider how many are lon this and the wonderful possibilities just imagine the fun you and the children will have with it. You will have fun painting and these designs and lhe children will thoroughly enjoy lhe articles which bear these decorations. Just imagine the spouting whale riding along on an embroidered buttonholed wave, an attractive decoration for curtains or towels. The locomotive, aeroplane and automobile would make an amusing group for lamp shade, especially for boy's room. The three groups of boats could be applied to a 25c parchment lamp shade and then etched in black and filled in with bright colors. The designs are much larger than shown here, the sheet from which they were taken measures 18 by 24 inches. That little house in the clouds

• • May 1 have a little more use of , the Peoples Voice Column? 11 wish to make it clear that I was telling the truth in my other article. I am not iu the habit of lying for or against any one and ■ do 't intend to ever start it. And •as for signing a fictious name to my article I most certainly did not, out side of “X. Y. Z” 1 can prove my statements. The peison who answered my letter did not read it correctly. 1 said Mr. Noll was the kiud of a trustee . we should have. I did not back bite him. I was praising hint for the good he has done. And w hats more I did cot wish anything on him. I think Mr. Noli is G. K. May I ask, is it lawful to have a lady janitor to fire a boiler? This janitor is not a day laborer as stated. I Thank You. Mrs. X. Y. Z In an old Sweedish Christmas story the children of the family being nr able to think of, or procure a gift for their mother, cut all the buttons off their best dress and offered them an a gift to her. . Foolish children indeed! But aren’t [ we people doing the same thing to our "Mother Country" by allow the ruthless defacing of our roadsides. There is nothing spectacular about our country roads, they are ’ not broad and spacious neither do 1 they jiaoh through deep cut mountains nor expensive show homes; ’ yet where can you find the simple i peaceful beauty that we may have • in our roadsides, bordered by graceful elms, maples, nut trees and with bittersweet tumbling over rail i fences in a perfectly friendly Hoos- . ier like way- These things are our | • heritage. They link us with the com | ageoii.-,. hospitable, settlor* as well i i a- with the coming generation. | - They are not ours alone!
