Representative Too much rain and a late spring has discouraged many but we feel sure the sun is going to break through permanently soon and that there will be ample time for those who desire to plant those crops which are most proltable in this section. Those interested in securing employment with the forestry army can secure information from Mr. Fred Hoke of Indianapolis who is in charge of this important work in Indiana. Later he will no doubt arrange for a quoto from each county and the selection ot these men will probably be through the committee on unemployment of which Mr. Will Linn is chairman. ' Business is better. One hears that every where he goes, both around here and elsewhere over the state, and that’s good news. Let’s keep it going. In some cities committees are calling on those who need repairs to their properties and urging that this be done at once, thus furnishing more work. It could be done here to advantage. — Senators and representatives who . bolt President Roosevelt at this linse when he is making such a valiant effort to bring this nation "out of the chaos it has been in ■ since the autumn of 1929 are not ■ making a hit with the people. -There will be plenty of time later play politics but just now the enactment of necessary legislation as suggested by a wise leader, receive hearty endorsement the law makers and the people. The paving of highway No. 527 is much needed and the action by the state highway commission is greatly appreciated here. The road Ts one of the main arteries of trade for this city and with its completion will give us a splendid system of main roads. The next thing ahottld be the paving of No. 1« to Markle and when that is done we .will feel we have been splendidly c red for by the state. Those who have been trying to secure an appointment as game wardens are probably disappointed at the decision to reduce the numb'T in the state from sixty to thirty-five. We< are informed by . Mr. Simmons, chief of that depart- . fnent that but five wardens will be named from the fourth district and these willl be chosen front the

i northern counties where the lakes abound. The plan will make quite a saving as to pay roil and it is believed by those in charge that the work can be just as efficiently pert formed as it was by the larger number. Nearly fifty boys and girls will t receive diplomas from the Decatur high school on May 19th and will . step out into the busy world. They I j II are well prepared, for few schools • i in Indiana rank higher than do ours JI and those who have applied thenii selves during the years required, i j to work through school, may feel 1 justly proud of their achievement. They are qualified to enter upon the duties which call them or to proceed to the higher institutions ■ of earning. i The depression is over. That • does not mean that every one will I immediately have good timek but it does mean that we have hit bottom and will once more start to march forward. Those who are I wide awake will have many opportunities the next few years to earn profits and we will not be surprised if most folks who are able to speed up will soon retrieve the terrible losses felt by almost every one the past three years. Let’s go to it. Os course every one here is imping the American Legion, Adams Post No. 43, can complete their arrangements for taking over the Decatur Country Club and operating it as a golf course as well as headquarters for that body. Those who have indulged in the game of golf realize its attractive lure and will as they can afford it. be delighted to resume play at this popular course. The grounds are splendidly fitting for the Legion, providing many means of pleasure which could be added from time to time and properly promoted and financed, would be a help to the . city. ' At Wy. le U source of revenue 1 I W W <4» •» will be tapped for the state highway commission August 1. On that day the new tonnage fee on trucks used for hire will become effective. All trucks hauling property for hire (with certain exceptions) will be subject to an annual tax of $1 for each 100 pounds of actual weight of the motor vehicle fully equipped. For 1933 the fee will be half of that nmount. Thereafter the full rate will apply. This new tax is in addition to all other taxes and license fees and applies not only to trucks used intrastate, but to trucks in interstate transportation Thus a truck from another state, even though it has paid a similar fee in the state where it is owned, must pay the Indiana tonnage tax if it is to use the Indiana highways. Exceptions to the tax I are trucks used in cities or towns (or their suburban territory), those used for carrying mail, farm products, newspapers: those only occasionally used for hire and moving vans. Penalty for violation is a fine of from $lO to SIOO. Each day the truck is used without paying the tax is a sepurate violation.

Edvard qT Kelw .au/Familv j While watching workmen excavating for the 1893 World's Fair in Chicago, Edward Joseph Kelly, a young apprentice to a mortician, decided there was no future in embalming, so he threw up his job and took one with a pick and shovel. Today, he is not only at the peak of the engineering profession, but is Mayor of bis native city. The man who takes up the reins dropped from the hand of Anton Cermak, Chicago's murdered executive, was born in 1876 in the city he now rules, of Irish parents. He attended public schools and night classes until he came of working age. Then he got the funeral parlor job which lie left to become a ditch digger. But he wasn't long at that humble job. Using up his spare time in studying engineering at Notre Dame University. Kelly was soon on his way to the top. An idea of his progress may be guaged from the fact that for the past nine years he has been president of the South Park system of Chicago, and is also director of a $120,000,000 sanitation district improvement project. Ho has been called one of the foremost builders of modern Chicago, for he was associated with every plan for eivic betterment in the Windy City these many years. Chicago's new Mayor has been twice married. His first wife, the former Mary Edmund Roche, of Chicago, died in 1918. He married Mis* Ma.garet E. Kirk, of Kansas City, in 10*2. I They have three adopted children, Joseph and Patricia, twins of 6, and Sfephep, 2.
