Jimmy Adams, new highway director for Indiana has already cut expenses of his department SIO,OOO a week. He has promised an annual saving of a half million and has started that program. And that's a worth while performance. The President has signed the reforestation bill and expects to have a large number ot men at work within three weeks. That’s the kind of action w-e need and every one is hoping he continues to devise ways and means for employing more. That will solve the depression problem. The high grade of talking pictures now being shown in the local theaters entitle them to the patronage of those desiring clean and wholesome entertainment at low cost. There is no reason to go anywhere else when you can see such pictures as “Hello Everybody” and “Tess of the Storm Country.” The depression has brought forth many sad incidents but none more deplorable than that of Joseph Frapaselli of Chicago who to save his family of eleven children from starvation, butchered a dead hog . found in an alley. Several of the family have died and the rest are seriously ill. There is of course an argument for the six-hour day for labor but it is a serious thing for the government to attempt such a regulation. For many years the eight-hour day was almost a standard in this country and if conditions do not improve rapidly it is possible that this may be reduced but to make such a proceedure mandatory is somewhat radical and will be strongly opposed by many people in this country. There is sadness in this community again, because of the passing of Fred Mutschler, excellent citizen, leading business man and one whose services in these trying days is badly needed. As the head of a great institution, the Mutschler Packing Company, he provided a market for hundreds and employ-

meat for many. He was one of those honest men of the pioneer type who believed in being thrifty and in doing worth while things and in his death Adams county t loses one of her finest men. The death ot Prof. George W. A. Luckey of Lincoln, Nebraska, has t caused sorrow here where he was born and reared and spent a nuni- & her of his year* as a teacher. He y served as county superintendent of ) the Adams county schools and as superintendent of the Decatur pub- ; lie schools. Leaving here he held ) numerous high positions in Ne- ’ braska and other western state colleges and was for years connected with the educational branch in Washington, D. C. He was recognized as one ot the foresmost educators in America and his numerous writings are considered authority. Adams county was always proud of him and his wonderful success in every undertaking. !

In the summer of 29 A. D., the third year of his ministry, Christ was in Decapolis east of the Sea of Galilee, where he preached and healed those who came to him. Four thousand were there, not counting women and children, and at the end of three days, there was no food. Christ took seven loaves and a few fishes, blessed them, and there was food enough to feed all, while seven baskets of fragments remained.

Hoyt t When Jesus traveled with his disciples in the third year of his , ministry, ho questioned the twelve ( nearest to him as do who men said , he was. It remains for Peter, the sturdy, to declare Christ to be none other than the long wgited - Messiah. Peter had faith. He had follow- , ed his leader and had studied him , during the trying period of his ( ministry. He had left the little | fishing village of Capernaum to , become a fisher of men; and his; belief was such that he depended implicitly upon the man who was to prove himself ths Son of God. Times change and ages move on bud faith remains. Only recently ' we entered upon a new political ’ phase in our country. A new ’ leader was elected and a new deal, long promised, started to become a reality. So far. our president has wrought well. He has surrounded himself with capable advisers. He has .treated each question fairly and impartially. 1 He has acted for the common good not to favor the few. But if he is to succeed in the tremendous ifndentaking which faces him. he must have our sup port. We must flock to his standard and stand behind him. 1 shoulder to shoulder We must trust him. assured that he has pledged himself to be true to that trust and that he will not fail at ‘ We must have faith.

When the miracle of feeding the multitude had been performed, the crowd departed and Christ embarked with his faithful twelve. From Capernaum came the Pharisees who were awaiting him, meeting him at Dalmanutha. Eager to trick him into some act that they might bring charges against him, they urged him to perform a miracle for them. Christ refused to do this and crossed the lake to the east
