Cooperation and a spirit to help ; has always brought dividends | locally. The railroads paid out nearly a quarter of billion dollars in taxi last year, w hich is one reason you j can’t ride free. Many law would !>• unnecessary i if everyone just used common I sense and good judgment in doing I the usual things. If “menial cruelty’’ could be used in divorcing one's self from the hot weather many a person would hav, tried it last week. The world loves the old fashioned mother type of person, as shown by the tributes paid to Marie Dressier. It may spidl your dream and cause the children to have nightmare. but school officials are gett •ing ready to open the school in four weeks. Hitler will more than likely point to Germany as the land of opportunity—from painter to the presidency. With up ets in governments we often wonder if England will continue as a kingdom and if the Prince of Wales will succeed to the throne. The business that "sweat it through" in July and then found itself in the red ink hopes for a better break when the mercury drops below zero. If industrial plants are to be closed on account of strikes, why not declare a month's holiday throughout the country, hike to the mountains, cool off and then stait all over again? Also remember that your forefathers didn't have a snap clearing the country and getting a shelter built. Today, despite taxes, strikes and reduced earnings we enjoy more than they did. After reading that two persons were killed and mure than 25 in jured by stunt motorcycle drivers who lost control of the vehicles, a person wonders what good such freak demonstration.-, are anyway? It cost $71,000 to operate the Decatur public schools last year, which is not excessive when considered that more than 1,000 children were housed and given instructions for nine months. The
High in Energy. Approved by Good Housekeeping
school board closed the fiscal year with a balance of $21,000 and hopes to be able to continue through the coming year without interruptions. Allen county will probably com- ' bine the county highway superin- , tendent’s office with the surveyor's office, making tin- surveyor supervisor of tile roads. Other counties, Including Adams county, did this a year ago and have found it very satisfactory. Two of the five convicts who escaped from the state prison last Saturday didn't enjoy their freeI dom very long. They were picked I up in a little Missouri town Tuesday. one of the convicts being shot j by officers. The men arc probably amateurs compared with those of tin Dillinger typo and knew little about hide-outs. It is likely that the others will be rounded up shortly, their escape just adding a few more years to their sentences. \n article in a popular weekly magazine picks out some of the flaws and mistakes in the homestead project in Readsville, West Virginia. The first job of its kind I < ver attempted, a certain amount ,of mistakes could be expected. On Hie Decatur Homestead division, government officials have the advantage of the experience gained j from the Readsville project. At ■ least there is no reason for making the same mistake twice and the ! local undertaking should serve as Li model. After all. the whole thing I is just building small modern cot--1 tages and that should not be such I an impossible thing to do correctly I in this dav and age.

(U.R> Temperamenial umpires are a pain in the neck to Frank Francis Frisch, manager of the St. Louis Cardinals. "Something must be done with’ them," he declares. "They insist they are always right and tiie manager or player who is arguing with them is wrong." Frisch is preparing to fight for the rights of major league managers and ballplayers to question the judgment of umpires and league executives. His first move will be to solicit assistance from the other seven league managers, and with their help he believes the sweeping power and authority of arbiters will be curbed considerably when the lM a 5 season opens.
