The weather man missed it for a day or two on his snow threat and we hope he is off his dope every Vime he gives it that way from now until next Thanksgiving. Put on your new necktie, hat suit or dress and show the world | ■you still believe in Easter and don’t forget to crack a few eggs with the children. It’s a great old custom. If you have overlooked registering. don't put it off any longer for the period of doing so before the -primary will soon close. It's your duty to qualify under the law so -you can vote if you care to. *" If Dillinger is making wise cracks «• •at every filling station he visits, he -is not as wise as many think he is. -Chances are these reports come -.from fellows who, bear a slight resemblance and like to act cute.

While —you have until April 30;h it is wise| .to Irmk after these matters before 'the very last day and hour. With only another w.ek of the .pre-primary season left, with a . large field of candidates out and * and with the registration well attended to. it looks very much as ~though we were ready for the 'starter’s flag which will start the!' -to election day. 1 The sorority girls will make the » canvas to secure members to the ( . Chamber of Commerce, an original idea that will, we are sure, meet 1 with sui. ■ since a portion % - tlie money will go into the charity 1 » funds of these societies. !, It costs but 12.50 to be a mem-| her of the Decatur Chamber of Z •' 'mmerce and its worth that just ' to have your name on the roll of those who desire to help the community. And there are many rhings I ~ you can do towards that end It's a bit hard to understand why * > ■■ there, should be a limit on the pro- < mm • dunion of beet sugar when this * country manufactures only about • ten per cent of the sugar used, but l we presume those who have studied the problem have convinced them- , selves of some reasons to justify such action as seems to be impend- 1 ing. It certainly seems silly to try to I prove to the world lhat Henry A. 1 Wallace, secretary of agriculture, is a red or a communist or anv i thing but a good citizen. He comes : from the country where men are , . men and where good citizens grow ; and he has nothing in his hear but the best interests of his fellow

citizens. Prof. Wirt und the rest of the stand-patters can shout their heads off without convincing the general public of any thing else. William IJnn, who has served as chairman of Adams county for the CWA deserve* the gratitude of the public. It has been a thankless and trying position In which Mr Unn has performed well. Unless you have given this matter close attention you perhaps do not realise how difficult it ha* been to be fair and Impartial and do the very besi for every one in the county. He will continue as chairman of Commission on Unemployment and will handle all the public work un der direction of the governor. He is experienced and qualified and will continue to give his very beet to the work. And now the joyous Eastertide, when we ail reverently sermonize that two thosuand years ago, the Lord died on Calvary that we might all be saved. Under the pressure of the past few years many have forgotten the beautiful lesson and It Is well that we turn onr atten tions again to those tilings which after all count most. Perhaps that's part of the trouble. We were going at a terrific pace, giving heed jio nothing but worldly pleasures, spending our years In chasing the dollar and giving little heed to eternity. The services tomorrow will be beautiful and inspiring and you will enjoy them. They mean so much and moat of the things we do. really mean so little.
