We feel sure that the scrap between Governor McNutt and Al , Feeney is no worse than it is be- . ing portrayed by the Republican press. Now for the final week of the ( legislature. Some important legislation has been passed and when its all put before you, we believe j the people of the State who are in clined to be fair, will give their ' approval. Basketball days are dosing and the great winter sport has reach- > ed its climax. The baseball clubs are in training and next month they will be starting the season off. It keeps the old pot boiling for the fans in this country. The objections made to the racing bill arc rather far fetched when it is known that most of those who try to make it a great moral issue, can’t enjoy a good horse race with- , out joining a ten or twenty-five cent pool, just to make it the more . interesting. Under the new text book law townships may furnish free text books to the school children if fifty-one per cent of the voters so petition. In other wo»ds its now up to the townships to take care of their own business in their own way and we believe that’s right. Farmers are hopeful of really receiving a profit this year and they are entitled to it. Since 1921 it has been uphill work to show an earning but indictions are that the next several years will be profitable and wc hope thats true. If it is, look out for real good times for every one. Another factory is planning to come to Decatur and some news of interest concerning it will soon be available. It is expected to employ a hundred people or more aud to aid the community in numerous ways. The Chamber of Commerce and others who are working on the project deserve commendation aud assistance. The Schafer Company is now operating about thirty harness makers in their factory and have orders to keep them busy for several fmonths. It’s one of the few companies of its kind which kept going during the depression and is now ready to meet the requirements of the public. It’s a splendid asset to the community. The new law which will make it a misdemeanor to play basketball teams oftener titan twice in one day is a good thing for the youngsters. " Many a lad has ruined his health by overdoing a game for his school, They can’t quit wlten they are in the midst of a hot battle on the hardwood aud the game one. won't. They can stand two games

in a day without proper care but. the third one is a test of endurance' that should not be permitted. It may be alright to postpone legislation until the special session but what if the governor decides we don't need one and what will they do if they do meet again for forty days’ They can’t carry over then. Important matters ought to be passed or defeated now and the session should adjouru with all problems taken care of one way or another. The Yellow Jackets put up a good scrap against North Side and every one here is proud of them regardless of the fact they did not win. The boys gave every thing they had and kept the crowd on the anxious seat until the final bell rang. They drew the toughest schedule in the tourney but they smiled and went to it. You’re alright boys, better luck next year. The New York News says that Roosevelt is still the most popular man in America regardless of the tact that he has been turned down a time or two by congress. He said when he started that he didn t expect to bat out a home run every time so he just smiles and keeps right on trying. The public likes that and will continue to do so for a long time to come. Watch him in 1936, regardless of the Huey Longs, the Fletchers, the YX atsous aud Artie Robinsons and the partisan press. When Mr. Roosevelt was cam paigning ami announced as oue of his pet plans for betterment of economic conditions, replanting of forests, there were many laughs and much ridicule but it is rapidly becoming something real. Next summer more than six hundred thousand men will be at work in . the CCC camps, the largest peacetime army ever known in this coun try and it is an army with regulations similar to those used in the regular posts, thus building the health 6f the men as well as providing them employment. Ten years from now the good done by this great agency will be more apparent. 0 fsTAR SIGN AUS’* By OCTAVINE For persons who believe that liu-j man destiny is guided by the planets tlie daily horoscope is outlined by a noted astrologer.

most exclusive shops just as Greta was getting fitted or her new spring wardrobe. And the aloof Swede actually was clowning around so much the fitters could hardly do their work. Singing and dancing to a hot blues number on

the radio. In case it would thrill you to hear It, La Garbo also was SO enthused over a new black velvet evening gown. She must be getting ready to step out again in Hollywood society. The reason Jean Harlow’s book never came out is the studio asked her to forget about it until she finished her new picture which has been in production for ages now—since November. Jean never hears from Hal Rossen these days. She wasn't able to get service on him for her divorce suit, so she is doing it by publication. But she vows she'll never marry again. "I should get burnt three times and tot myself in for more trouble,” she exclaims. Which may or may not dispose of the William Powell rumors. Seems to me Jean swore once before she was never going to get married again. Pinkie Tomlin, who practically , hitch-hiked to California a few months ago. left here in a blaze of ' glory.

Christian Rudolph Ebsen, Jr., but to the New York stages he is better known as Buddy Ebsen. Not so many years ago, he cams up from Orlando, Fla., to get a jeb as a sodajerker in New York. He sent for his sister, Vilma, and the two of them teamed up as eccentric dancers, making a hit in “Flying Colors” and appearing recently at the Central Park Casino. It was on Broadway that Ebsen met and married Winchell's Girl Friday, otherwise Ruth Cambridge. The Ebsens. brother and sister, have just been signed by Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
