Now some political speakers shout against having brains in government. Sinclair Lewis may know how to write a book but he has a lot to learn about life. Anyway if this locality doesn’t get the rain we come in tor our share of the wind storms. What chance has the poor fish. In Indiana and seven other states a total of 1,364.465 licenses have been issued so far this year. Marries on Monday, seeks divorce Thursday, reads a headline. The news of that is that the couple did not belong to the movie colony. A dollar or two now will help the boy and girl scouts get a shelter house built in Hanna-Nuttman park. It’s a good act and you'll receive pleasure in doing it. Visit your city parks and places of recieation and amusement over the week-end. You may be surprised to see what Decatur offers for your enjoyme.it. Republican papers seem to be against the new deal as c matter of course, offering nothing In place of the recovery program. It appears they will have a hard job selling the American people. « Evansville and the southern part of the stale suffered from a cloud burst the other night, more than three and a third inches of rain falling. From one extreme to another and nothing can be done about it. A wealthy resident of Shreveport. La., built himself a mansion on top the highest hill, established an art center and then to make it look common added a night club to which all his neighbors may come without paying a cover charge. We smile as we read a table of seven rules for the guidance of ■ children at the table, wondering how to enforce rule number six, which stipulates, "A child should sit quietly through courses in which he is not allowed to partake." The Roosevelt policies continue to be favored in the Literary Digest poll, 727,700 out of 1,169,827 voters, or 62.21 per cent, voting favorably on the President's program. This week's poll shows a etill further trend toward Roosevelt, more than one out of three persons who voted for Hoover in Rich in Protein I ICE CREAM | Approved by Good Housekeeping

Everything may not be perfect and probably never will be, but one thing is sure, progress i has been made aud the President 1 at least has been trying to do the ! job. The new state commander of the G. A. R., is John F. McKinley of Lebanon. He is a first cousin of President McKinley, looks hale and hearty, has a cheery smile and Is probably one of the finest fellows in the land to meet. Naturally everyone wishes him a lot of success in his honorary and important post. A real job of recuing was done following t,he wreck of the German ship Dresden. With a passenger , list of 1.255, all thrown overboard 1 when the ship sank, only five lost j their lives. All five of the victims ; were women. The sea may be dangerous, but in any other kind of a wreck the fatalities probably would have been greater. Sunday is American Legion day in Decatur. Adams Post No. 43 will be host to Legionnaires and the Women's Auxiliary of the Fourth district and a program beginning at 10 o’clock will be held at the Country Club. Among the headline speakers on the afternoon bill are State Commander Arm-1 strong, Blanche Robinson, state auxiliary president aud Father J. S. Ryder, state chaplain These events are always happy occasions for the ‘veterans and their families and Decatur is glad to have a hand in entertaining them. Mayor George Krick will bid them welcome and the community joins him in saying "We're glad you've come." With the perfecting of the synthetic rubber experiment, America will not again face a shortage of this all important product or be forced to pay tribute to foreign nations for the raw material. The Du Pont company announces that thq .manufacture of synthetic rubber from acetlyne, salt and water is a reality and that the sample tires and tubes just made are as tough and durable as those made from real rubber. Rev. Julius Nieuland, chemist professor at Notre Dame is credited with the discovery of the ingredients which go to make up the rubber compound. The patent will be held and in the event of rising rubber prices America will start to produce its own rubber for auto tires and a thousand and one other articles. lowa has figured up that 13.268 motor accidents occurred in the state last year, resulting in the death of 540 of her citizens. People injured totaled 13,623. Analysis showed that eighty per cent of the mishaps occurred through negligence. Safety measures have been taken without reducing much the total number of mishaps, and the week of May 6 to 12 was designated as a period of respite. This does nothing save call attention to the widespread carelessness, which is no greater there than elsewhere. Garages have been designated as places of inspection, and a "sticker” will be placed on the windshields of cars that pass muster. When the average person gets his hands on the wheel, wisdom and safety depart from his thoughts. — Moose Magazine. o Answers To Test Questions | Below are the Answers to th* ■ Test Questions Printed | on °age Two. 1.

EARLY FOREST FIRES EXPECTED Boise. Ida., -(UP)- Fire fighting ‘forces In Idaho national forests are being organized early thia year. Usually there Is little danger of fire before late June or early July, but this year a lack of snow in the inter-mountain country forewarns of an early dry season which will create unusual fire hazards. R. H. Rutledge, forester of region four with headquarters in Ogden Utah, has announced that forces for duty in southern Idaho, Utah, Nevada and Western Wyoming will ije lined up early in May. 'ln commenting on tne expected dry season and its danger of fire. Rutledge said that most fires were man-made and that many could be avoided if campers would use rare while in the forests. The season, judging from the open winter and lactk of precipitation. promises to be as dangerous as two years ago when fires raged for two months in the Boise national forest. That tire covered an estl mated 200 square miles and Governor C. Ben Ross was forced to declare five counties under marshal law before It, and other smaller conflagrations, could be brought under control. OCC workers aided in preventing disastrous fires last year, forest officials said. —o—f PREBLENEWS~ * • • Mr. and Mrs. Adolph Koldewey and family of Gateline visited Mrs. Will Linnemeier and son Herman Thursday.

By HARRISON CARROLL PopynpAt, King Feature* Syndicate. Inc. HOLLYWOOD ... A well-known feminine figure in Hollywood social life has provoked much criticism for 1 her love gossip, but It was Bruce Cabot who delivered the most biting comment. The other night the woman entered a cinema gay spot wearing an eccentric hat that tied under the ' chin with a length of white tulle. "Ah,” said Cabot. "She's talked so much she has finally got her jaw In a sling." Sidney Fox is a little bewildered trying to figure just what kind of 1 rib ii being i . played upon her. ' ' Several days ch,' received i a from a firm 1,1 I’hlladel- ♦♦ iikW phia attorneys jHBr ’H asking her to get , bt ln io,,ch with y them concerning jOR a 11.100,000 in»—(xjy . heritance that has just been m left to her in ** _J England. The Sidney Fox letter was addressed simply to Sidney Fox, Hollywood, and the petite actress laughed it off as a prank. Came a cable from London on the. same subject It was from a man named Charles Fox, who did not identify himself further, but who told her to watch for a registered letter he had just dispatched to her. i Sidney supposes somebody must think it's all very tunny, but wonders why all the elaborate buildup. i As one of Hollywood's most competent cameramen, James Wong Howe, used to tread the M. G. M. lot with contident steps, but now he ' is In a state of nerves. A few weeks ' ago Jimmy got the first shock when George HiU returned from China i and tried to get him to make a test . for one of the characters in "Good Earth". Jimmy laughed and walked away. Then yesterday. Director Richard Boleslavsky got him oft in a corner and practically demanded that Jimmy try out for the role of the , little Chinese physician in Greta I Garbo's new picture, “The Fainted 1 Veil”. In a panic, Jimmy declared: “I i wouldn’t get out before that camera I for the greatest starring career nio- ■ tion pictures can offer." Significant that the 50 pictures announced by Warner Brothers for coming production do not include a single sexy or sophisticated drama. Seven of the company's ten |l,0»0,-
