If you haven’t sect in your state income tax report for last year, it may be well to remember that its due and that to put it off longer than this week is dangerous. It must be in oy the 30th. Tickets for the big ball on next Tuesday evening are going nicely , a ,i| those who don’t get in on this will positively miss the fiuest and most enjoyable social event given here in a long time. The senate will argue the gold bill a’;d then vote for it. They must do a certain amount of speech making for what would a session of congress be without it? But after all every member of that body with the exception of Rohinson of Indiana, believes in the plans of the President. The state highway commission will ask the next legislature to amend the law so they can build or repair city streets, an excellent suggestion because the worst roads these days are many of the city streets. U der such a law it would be possible to build a river drive through Decatur as has been hoped for a long time by many. The South Ward I’arei t-Tcach-er’s Association endorsed the work being done by the physicians and I county nurses to immunize the children against dyphtheria and then to make it good, voted five dollars to assist in defraying expenses and that’s the kind of support that really shows they are lor it. It’s a line work and deserving of your interest. Governor McNutt and R. Earl Peters met on the same platform at Marion and much to the disappointment of those whir want to see them tear at each others throats, asked for harmony. Men may disagree and still continue to b lieve in the same basic party principles and fight for them and for the organization which supports them. I'erd Christen, former county agent here and son of Mr. and Mrs. I’-. S.

If that is done It is the general opinion that the prosperity wave will nave received enough momentum to keep on going. It Is a smart and a courageous effort and the people hold the great leader. President Roosevelt, in highest respect for his untiring campaign against the depression. A Birthday Ball such as that planned in honor of President | Roosevelt on the 30th of this month lis unique in the history of this country. It will not be a single celebration, but a collection of them in hundreds of communities throughout the land. It will not be a celebration merely for celebration’s sake, hut for a purpose which must appeal to every citizen in the la d. that of raising an endowment- for the Georgia Warm Springs Foundation for Infantile Paralysis.—New Haven, Conn., Register. The average person uses his automobile so often that he sometimes forgets alxiut the railroad’s part in carrying passengers. It may surprise many to know that in 1933 the railroads conveyed 478,500,122 passengers. These milI lions of passengers paid $377,095,346 in fares and the average distance traveled was 35.4 miles. The railroads are still one of the nation's most important industries. | Operating receipts for the last year totaled $3,120,760,154, while oper-l ating expenses, including $275,135,399 paid for taxes, amounted to $2,800,016,027. After deducting fixed charges, such as rent and leases, amortization and interest this gigantic industry showed a net deficit of more than $139,000,000. The largest item of income came from freight, nearly two billions ami a halt being paid by shippers. The largest expenditure was for wages and salaries of the 1,031,703 employes, amounting to nearly a billion and half dollars. Eliminate such a business from commerce and you have a gap that's hard to fill. o Household Scrapbook —BY—ROBERTA LEE ;♦ Curtains When it is desired to get another season out of lace curtains that are at the breaking stage, place them in a pillowcase and let soak in a soapy water and kerosene.

By HARRISON CARROLL Copyritht. 183 4. King Feature* Syndicata, Ine HOLLYWOOD, Cal., — With her blasts against the film capital still a lively memory, Mrs.

Patrick Campbell, glamorous footlight queen of two continents, now does a right • about and gives the cinema city her official sanction. “Hollywood has grown up and is a safe place for sane people,” declares the actress whose barbed wit once tore the movie foibles into shreds. “The only ob-

jection I have to it now are the ants,” Mrs. Campbell adds. “The house is full of them.” When the ground dries up from the recent storm and the ants go outside again, the actress believes she may settle down comfortably to make her home in the once despised community. She is working with Norma Shearer in “Rip Tide” and she probably will make other pictures. To make the conquest complete, she's even succumbed to the conventional lure of a house in Beverly Hills. Studio officials are outraged over the latest Hollywood racket—the proposal by a former camera-man to establish a business of making composite photographs of well known players with any individual who is willing to pay $1 for the service. The film plants are ordering employes not to furnish the necessary still pictures of the players. Barbara Bardondess, former New York newspaperwoman and now a Hollywood actress, scored a big scoop when she went to work in Greta Garbo's picture and managed to get an interview —albeit an unintentional one—with the Swedish star. But, although any publication in the country would have paid well for the story, she gave it gratis to the National Fan Magazine in which ! it will appear. Her only reward will be the publicity value of the article. Among the things La Garbo told Barbara was that the real size of her shoes is double A. She also related an amusing story at her own expense. Some time ago, the glamorous Swede went into a shoe store to make a purchase. The fussed salesman rushed up with 10 or 15 pairs of large size shoes. “Take them back and get me 6ti iouble A,” droned the husky voice. Then, according to the star, the

salesman became even more fussed. “Oh, I beg your pardon.” he said. “I thought you were Miss Garbo.” The gossips, by the way, are interested in Barbara for other reasons than her authorship of the Garbo interview. She is going everywhere these evenings with Ralph Saret, visiting young New Yorker. They were dancing Sunday night at the Beverly Wilshire and later made one of the better-known late spots together. Though Barbara’s divorce will not be final for months, some detect a note of seriousness in her present friendship. Barbara admits she will be going to New York soon and may see young Saret, but adds: “He’s just a boy who used to take me horse-back riding in Brooklyn eight years ago.” QUICK GLIMPSES: Al Rosen, embattled producer of “The Mad Dog of Europe,” is back from abroad with what he describes as actual scenes of Nazi persecution of Jews in Germany. Some of the film, he says, cost him as high as sl2 a foot. As it was impossible to secure the negative of the film, he’ll have to dupe one from the positive print.
