Here's an attraction for the, world’s fair or Ringling Bros, cir-1 cits: A kitten gave birth to al Siamese sextette, the baby felines! being joined together in chain gang ' fashion. And in recording such j a blessed event, it should be said ; that mother and kittens are doing! well. President Roosevelt piloted the Amherjaek into port at Campobello, ! N. 8., yesterday, where he will l spend his vacation at his summer I home. As captain of his ship he guided the schooner over choppy waters and from statements made to newspaper men enjoyed the venture immensely. The President is a seaman of no mean ability. If there were any way to measure the benefit from the rain it 1 surely would be worth a million dollars to the people of this community. Falling on parched ground and stinted crops, the shower is of immeasurable value to farmers. The beets will be helped greatly, late seeding will start to grow and the corn will be shoved ahead. Judge Ryan of the Marion county superior court has ruled that 1 the gross income sales tax ean not i be collected on goods manufactur-I ed in this state and sold outside of Indiana. If the ruling holds, the state will loose between three and four million dollars in anticipated . revenue, but it will be much easier i for Indiana manufacturers to meet' out-state competition. It’s a fine sight to see the construction work in progress in this ‘city. About 100 men a.re busy at the Central Sugar company’s factory and a half dozen are engaged in constructing concrete work at the City Light and Power plant,, preparatory to installing new| equipment. Much of the labor slack has been taken up here and on every hand activity is being revived. The stretch of road on state route' y No. 27, north of Decatur to the | Monmouth railroad crossing is to i be resurfaced. Work will begin ■ next Wednesday and a force of about 15 men, including watchmen will be employed on the job. The detour will be routed over what is known as the river road, northwest of Decatur. The road will be treated with Kyrock and will be made as smooth as velvet, much to the delight of motorists. You may eliminate your financial worries by getting a loan from us.

Roscoe (Fatty) Arbuckle, at one time the mol faninua of the screen is dead. Arbuckle rose to world fame through his antics and winning smile and then was exiled from the screen following the death of a girl companion who attended one of his parties. He was a likeable fellow, but let prosperity and public acclaim get the best, of him. Probably In recent years he often wished he could live over some of the years of his earlier career as a movie clown. These are changing times. The, traction line between Fort Wavne and Indianapolis and other important cities In the south part of the state may be discontinued because they are unprofitable. Receivership proceedings have been instituted and a general revamping of the roads is to be undertaken, with the possibility that several of the major roads may be junked. The advent of and the continual growth of the use of the automobile spelled doomed for many electric lines and the day may not be far distant when a single interurban line re- ! mains running in the state. — Berne is listed for two public i improvements. The state board of health has recortSfrended a new | sewerage system for the town and i the federal treasury has the place slated for a new postoffice. Funds for constructing the sewerage system will be obtained through federal aifl allotted to the states and in turn to cities, towns and counties for carrying on public works programs. The estimate on the sewerage system is $42,000 and if both projects get under way this summer employment will be provided many people. The federal government is launching a new building program and among other cities designated for postoffices are Hartford City, Tipton and Union City. Baseball is a builder of youth and the game teaches the Amer(><>y how to control his temper and act like a gentlemen. Bill “Wamby” Wambsganss, former famous player of the great American game stated in a talk before the boys of Decatur yesterday. Mr. Wambsganss is a man of high j character, fine ideals and believes ! in youth going straight. “You can't win unless you do,” said the famous ball player. The baseball school, made possible through the generosity of W. A. Klepper of the I Cloverleaf Creameries, Inc., is one I of the finest features ever offered the boys of this vicinity. The purpose is to teach and inculcate principle? of fine manhood in the youths and to impress upon them that to be a good winner, they also have to accept defeat in the right light. 0 * Answers To Tesi Questions | Below are the Answers to the | I Test Questions Printed on Page Two. « ♦ 1.
