' The drought continues and unless there is a break soon, the crops in the middle west will be the smallest ever known. And the sad part about it is that nothing ban be done but to smile and take It. If tha daddy of those five daughters recently born to his wife at Corbell, Ontario, will move them and their mother to the Chicago Fair, his worries about how he will manage to feed them will be over. Fuch an attraction would in a few weeks, bring him more money than he ever supposed was in the world. A man named Niven in New, Haven, Conn., tried to borrow a , dollar from his landlady. When she refused, he twisted her leg until he bxoke her hip and her death followed. Now Niven won’t need the dollar. That's one way of getting along, but we presume it will prove not as pleasant away as this hard hearted wretch would like. With a strike threatened in the Eckart packing plant at Fort Wayne, the company paid their 225 employes off and closed the doors. That's what may happen in numerous cases unless employers and employes remember the Golden Rule and use some old fashioned common sense while we are getting back to a normal industrial condition. ■ Grain prices are soaring and will continue to do so, which will be fine for those who have wheat, corn or oats in storage but won't help the man who hasn't any and who Will have either to buy grains or dispose of his live stock. Surely the bad luck which has seemed to hover over the American farmer the past decade will disappear one of these days and he will again come into his own. E. L. Cord, former president of the Auburn Automobile Company is fleeing with his family because of numerous kidnap threats. They will go to England then sail around the world in their private yacht. Seems a little tough that when a man accumulates a fortune he has to be chased all over the world because of kidnapers but the family and the millionaire manufacturer will probably enjoy their enforced vacation. Memorial Day was appropriately observed here under auspices of the veterans of the World War and the Spanish American. The entire community joined with them and the services were beautiful and inspiring. Flowers were strewn upon the graves of those who had served the flation for whom final taps had sounded. It is a splendid custom, to remember upon this day those who have served and died and we hope it will be carried on indefinitely.

Those who complain about the state and national administrations invariable admit in the same breath that conditions are much better than a year ago and will probably | work out. Well, isn’t that what is I wanted? We all know that if we | had gone on as we were we would ! have sunk. The waves were gettj ing too high and the going harder every day. Property was being con- < fiscated .people were starving. It's different now and we hope it continues so. They can’t fool old man Dillinger about his son John and while a number of the police officials figure the bandit is dead and hurried in a southern Indiana grave, the father insists that if John had been seriously wounded he would have sent him word. In the meantime reports continue to come in that he has been seen here, there and other places. Os course that’s ! what the bandit wants. If he can, drop out of sight for a while, he will be able to come back and fool them when they are not expecting him.. ■ • “Wild Bill’’ Cummins, a Hoosier boy, spun around the speedwaytrack at the rate of 104 miles an hour, broke the record and copped the big purse in the world famous classic yesterday and he had to spin for just eighteen seconds behind him Mauri Rose finished second. It was the greatest race in the twenty-five years the speedway has been breaking records and was witnessed by a crowd estimated at 140,000 people. One of the features this year was that only forty-five gallons of gas could be used to complete the 500 miles. The community regrets the verypainful and serious accident suffered by Mr. Kalver and hope for him a speedy and complete recovery. For many weeks he has given of his energy and effort to prepare the beautiful new theater building which is to be opened to the public tomorrow evening and had looked forward with many anticipations to this occasion. While he will be unable to be present, his friends will think of him often as they look upon the new play house provided by his energies and enterprise. o City of Silk Lytns is the center of the silk Industry of France and one of rhe great silk manufacturing cities of the world In and around Lyons more than 80,000 silk looms are at work, employing some 150,000 hand*.

The room is brightly decorated in gaily-colored chintz. The men's rest room, on the mezzanine floor, is reached by a stairway leading from the right side of the foyer. This room. too. Is modernly equipped. The light, airy manager's office can be entered from the left side of the foyer. Auditorium Breath-Taking The spacious. Mgh-ceilinged auditorium really will take your breath away, w-ith its colorful beauty. Six hundred comfortable seats, so arranged that the screen can be seen without the slightest discomfort, sweep down to the wide stage. The si age. which is largo enough to accommodate occasional vaudeville attractions, is hung with mulberry and gold velour drapes, and a gold-colored draw curtain is hung in front of the picture screen. The front exit doors are graced with drapes similar in color to those on the stage. The walls of the auditorium are constructed of Nu-Wood. a special acoustical material that will insure perfect sound. Two sets of light fixtures —one set to be used during intermission, and the other during the showing of! the picture—have been installed around the walls. The aisles and the floor of the foyer are carpeted with a new type of rubberized composition, made to carry out the general mahogany and cream color scheme. Mechanically, the theater is modern and up-to-date in every respect. Built under the supervision of the state fire marshal, it conforms to the new theater building code, and is absolutely fire-proof in every respect. The projection booth, which is as large as to be found anywhere in the country, is completely lined with asbestos. Fire gates, which close automatically, in case of fire, will shut all booth openings to the auditorium. An enlarged screen, new lenses, and the newest type of wiring and equipment assure the Adams' patrons, the finest of projection and sound reproduction.

able healthful temperatures on even the hottest days. The theater has been so insulated against extremes of hot and cold weather. A modern steam-beating plant has been installed in the basement. and to conform with the building code, has been placed in a separate fire proof room. I. A. Kalver. owner and man ager of the New Adams, has contracted for the best talking pictures available. Productions of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer, Paramount. R.’K. O. and Universal film companies will be shown. In addition, comedies and other short subjectsi of interest will appear on every program. The opening production to be shown Friday and Saturday will be Frank Buck's latest jqngle adventure thriller, "Wild Cargo.'' Big Pictures Coming Some of the big pictures which will be shown at the New Adams this spring and summer include Wallace Beery in "Viva Villa." coming a week from Sunday; Clark Gable and Myrna Ix>y in Men in White”; Johnny Weismuller in “Tarzan and His Mate;” Joan Crawford in “Sadie McKee.” Bing Crosby and Carole Lombard in "We're Not Dressing." Marion Davies and Gary Cooper in "Oper’ator 13”; Clark Gable. William Fowell and Myrna Loy in “Manhattan Melodrama,” and many more. In spite of the thousands of dol lars spent in building the New Adams, there will be no increase in admission prices. The same low prices, considerably under those of any other city the size of Decatur, will prevail. To take care of the anticipated crowds on opening night tomorrow, three shows will be presented —at 6. 8 and 10 o’clock. The box-office will open at 5:30 p. m.
