Another mouth and the' activities usual lor the spring seas-1 on ought to be here. The only trouble is that they tell | us when March comes in like a i lamb, it will go out like a lion, hut ■ what's to be done about it? After all it may not be so cad. Arnie fellow at Indianapolis predicts a new political party. That’s nothing new. They come and go every campaign year and it would be surprising if in this up-side-down age, we only have one. Adams county had a delegation estimated a: a hundred al the district meeting at Fort Wayne last evening and they came from all over the county. And they enjoyed it a lot. Tit.' congressmen are beginning to realize that the bonus proposition is th<! same hot proposition it i has always been and once they get hold of it, there is difficulty; in letting go. The Democrats of the Fourth district have confidence and bushels I of pep, as was demonstrated at last nights meeting in Fort Wayne. They are out to win and when they get steam up,, just can't be headed oft. The weather was considerably improved today and at this office where the boiler to our healing plant went out during the night, we wene glad of it. As it was we were all shivvering around in sweaters,( overcoats and trying to smile. | There is still room for eandi j dates in the race for the councilmanic board and its a very important job. We should have steady citizens in these places for in the I Uuxl four years they will have many) questions to decide that are of in-1 tyrest to you. -Decatur is going to step forward this year, so get ready for it. Sev-! oral proposed projects will furnish work for many and there will bo a. circulation of money that will help every one in the community, l ew cities have a brighter outlook, so don't get discouraged.

Even it' Purdue loses her basketball games with Indiana and Illinois, and chances are she will not, she will still be the winner of the Big Ten conference, a distinction not unusual lor that school. In this sport as well as in football, the opponents all realizze they are up against the real thing when they are matchetl against old Purdue. Those who attend the high school commencement exercises this year will appreciate the talk by Dr. L. A. Pittenger, president of Ball State College and recognized as one of the leaders in educational affairs of the middles west. He always gives new thoughts in a pleasant way and the class and heir friends may anticipate a real treat. The messages of Democratic leaders at the Fort Wayne meeting last night were inspiring and proved that our officials aro "keeping the faith.'' Mistakes have been made as are natural in any program the
size of the efforts of the past year, but they have been honest mistakes .’ltd are being remedied. They will continue to make good and the voters of Indiana realize they have 1 their big chance to keep the improvement in Indiana going. Congressman Farley spoke to the 11 Democratic gathering at Fort Wayne last evening, reporting on what has been done, is doing and may happen, an interesting ad-' dress, lie pledged continued support of the J’resklent and express-1 cd the opinion that we are on the way to rei-overy. lie said that since January Ist when tiie insurance of bank deposits became effective. deposits in this nation have increased more than two billion dollars and not a single bunk has closed. The Catholic Community Center | was jammed to the doors last eve-' ning for the Fourth district meet-1 ing and the enthusiasm was maul-1 fest, to all who cared to see or hear it. Governor McNutt was in rare form and his address was one of the ablest he has given in his political career, lie told of the prom ises made and ail of which have i been kept, he asked that a ,-ympa- , thetic legislature be elected this year in order that the work of re-' organization may go on.
