Mayor Kelly of Chicago is away I to a good start. His first act was 1 to order the teachers paid as rapidly as the money can be raised. A wise man has said that getting ' an idea is like sitting down on a pin; it should make you jump up! and do something and that's the ’ best cure for the depression. The finest thing about President Roosevelt as we see it, is that he i acts. Instead of passing the buck by appointing commissions or committees or by putting off a task, he says lets do it now. The best evidence we have had that times are picking up is the fact that we published two eight I pages this week, the first time this year. Hope it keeps on getting; better. George Horace Lorimer says: , “Because a fellow has failed once; or twice or a dozen times, you' don’t want to set him down as ;> failure till he's dead or loses his courage and that's the same j thing.’’ Seems rather funny that if so many Louisiana citizens want Huey ; Long removed as senator, they : ever sent him there. They must, have known what he was and how he would perform. Now they want some one else to assume the responsibility of firing him. From comments heard we believe that a majority of the people ere sincerely hoping that Winnie Ruth Judd escapes the extreme penalty for the murder of two of her girl I companions. She is probably guil-1 ty but there arc some circum-i stances that make many feel that she will be punished severely enough by life imprisonment at hard labor. We have heard and read much about hoarding, about the hoarding of gold, the hoarding of currency. I But there are other equally disast-' er-breeding forms of hoarding. There has been hoarding of needed

expenditures by individuals, families and business concerns. There has been hoarding of confidence by investors. There has been almost w general hoarding of confidence in t this nation and its future. There has been suicidal hoarding of confidence by many a corporation. , President Roosevelt can and has ■ done much. But he cannot do every thing.—Forbes Magazine. I I i ; The reorganisation of the state 1 departments and bureaus into eight new departments has been com- ' pleted and announced by the Governor. The various commissions and boards have been grouped with a view to eliminating waste effort I and duplication and of getting the | maximum of results for the mini- | mum of expense. The plan is in line with modern ideas of business efficiency in public service. The reorganization placed responsibility squarely up to the Governor. If it fails there will be no one on whom the blame could be shifted I and. consequently, his utmost esI fort to succeed may be expected. | - —lndianapolis Star. I Virgil Simmons of Bluffton will have charge of public works in In- i j diana the next four years, having accepted an appointment from Governor McNutt to that responsible place. Active in Democratic • politics for a number of years, he I has served in the federal revenue 1 ! department, was a member of the] ■ legislature and is now the chair-, ! man of the fourth district. During I the recent session oT the legisla- i ture he served the administration! jby keeping track of measures : i which were particularly important.! I He is capable and has the energy I I and desire to make good. Mr. Leib-1 j er will continue to have charge of. ' the state parks and the governor I ' paid tribute to his excellent ser- j i vices. i Tomorrow is Easter Sunday ami | , in every part of every Christian-1 ; i'z'ed’ country will be fittingly obser- ( ved the celebration of the anniver-1 I sary of the resurrection of Jesus I I Christ. There can be no more im-1 porSant occasion in historv for were ' : it not for the teachings of this King ; of Kings, we would never have ar--1 rived at the stage of civilization I that has made the past century the ■ (greatest ever known since thej world began. The past few years, , have been such as to make many ' who had wandered from the teach- ; ings of the church, to return and • the House of Worship is once more - a place where millions seek rest! and comfort. Easter should be a ; great day and the beautiful lessons i that will he given tomorrow will ‘ hel,, much in making the coming; year happy and better for every' one.

The time is near for the general clean-up in our fair city, when ?il the winters rubbish will be cleaned from the yards, alleys and vacant Ibts and speaking of rubbish and trash, 1 have often won- i dered why people are allowed to ' throw old tin cans and other trash ■ down on the river bank at the end of Madison street. The street committee should see that the owners of adjacent property dean these lots, especially those at the corner of First and Madison. It is unsightly anil can be seen from the ! hotels and gariges nearby. With I the old boards piled there and the ! weeds it makes a fine place for I rats and other varmin to hide in i If the owners are overburdened | with work, it would be fine for them I to give a few unemployed men the I job of cleaning np those lots. Then ' ; it won't be neessa-ry to get a search i ' warrant to find the veterinary’s j office. You see these lots are right on one of the main traveled streets ’and our city has always had the n me of a clean, beautiful city, so why spoil it. Lets use the old slogan. ’Decatur can and will”.
