The. weather man seems to be burning on the gas agaain but we won't squeal if he don’t try to outdo his efforts of last week. •* Give a book or two or a dozen 1o the Decatur library. They need them and will appreciate the gift , •and so will the reading public. ( • The grain brokers will probably ' 7«ol around with the Roosevelt administration until they are told in , 1 -plain language just what they can , ‘ do and not do. [) " Grain prices continue to rise in i 1 2a satisfactory manner. When the;' broke a week ago, the ad- 1 got busy and checked < ~it in a day or two instead of wait- 1 -ing until every one in the country had been damaged. And the folks -like that kind of action. • Os course Decatur business men | < "will conform with the request to ; •'cooperate in the recovery cam- • paigq by arranging shorter hours | » with increased pay and adding em- « ploycs wherever possible. As soon *,'s each business knows what is ex--2 pected from them, the agreements 2 will be made and kept to the letter. “ ter. • Perhaps you have some books • you have read and don’t care for. . If you will give them to the library . you will be helping hundreds who ‘ will -peruse them during the com- ' ing autumn and winter. Due to . tbe shortage of money, it has been , ‘ impossible to purchase books the ( past few months and those in ■ taige belle)the citisens here , will patriotically aid them at this time. The new mayor of Chicago seems | to be as much in earnest about cleaning that city of gangsters as 1 was his famous predecessor, Anton Cermak. Twenty-four have been arrested for conspiracy in the cleaning and dyeing, laundry and heveridge business and the list includes Al Capone, his successor Murray Humphries and several aidermen and leading business men. An Adams county farm was sold 1 at auction yesterday for $71.50 per acre. A tew years ago that would ■ have been a very poor sale but just > now when in other counties of the 1 middle west, farms have been selling at nfticli lower figures, it is encouraging to know that five bidders fought it out and that the farm was actually sold. We predict that these low prices will soon be over and that many will wonder why they lacked the vision to see the bargains lying at their door.

You have to show ’em out in Mlssoiiri and Walter MeGree could not convince a jury at Kaunas City that he had any business kidnaping Mias Mary McElroy, so they found him guilty and fixed the punishment at death. A few verdicts like that will stop this rapidly growing banditry and it ought to be stopped. We are not so strong for capital punishment but in cases like these, we do believe that society is best served by giving the severest punishment the law allows. i Representatives of the state high- ! way commissior. complain that they are having some difficulty in keeping the number and direction signs up along the various roads. Boys, evidently not realizing that they are committing a serious offense, have broken down and destroyed several signs iu this section and officers are on the lookout for those who thus engage. If they are caught, they will be used as examples in hopes the practise of destroying state property must thus be broken up. Geneva is boosting a lake project that has many advantages, not the least of which, if done at this time, being the employment of several hundred men. It would be wonderful to have a lake in this part of the state and located as proposed on the site of the old Llmberlost territory, such a resort would attract visitors from far and near. Needdless to say that any support that can be given this movement from this end of the county will be forthcoming one hundred per cent. Very pleasing indeed to the many friends here of Lew G. Ellingham. of Fort Wayne, is his appointment as q member of the advisory board of the public works program for Indiana. A resident here many years. Mr. Ellingham is well known and is recognized for his splendid ability as an organizer and an executive. He was the publisher and owner of this newspaper from 1894 until 1916 when he took ' charge of the Journal-Gazette and it was from this county he was called to serve as secretary of state, which position he filled with credit from 1910 to 1914. He has vision, common sense and personality and he will prove most valuable as a member of one of the most important boards ever formed j for Indiana. o J— Answers To Test Questions Below a.e the Answers to the Test Questions Printed an Page Two, « • 1.

Iu many cities the agreements were received too late for distribui tion yesterday. But every report i coming into the national recovery t administration <>ffices indicated u I great mass of volunteers through out the country. It was expected that distribution of the agreement forms would be completed in every city of the country by Saturday night. , It was learned, meanwhile, that 1 the administration planned to fol- | low up signature of the blanket ■ agreements with a questionnaire ‘ which will show exactly how many ; I men have been given employment • I and how much lias been added to ’ i the payrolls. It has been estimated that more ■ I than 5,000,000 workers may be ret. employed before Labor Day. Adt' ministration officials feel that a
