A special-special session of the legislature will be necessary if the legislators continue to postpone action on propsed laws until the regular special session is held next summer. Countrary to public sentiment and the wishes of many school • authorities, the bill forbidding high; school athletes to play in more than two games a day, was indefi nitely postponed yesterday. The bill had passed the house and was referred to the senate, the committee agreeing to withhold its report for three days, which time ■will find the legislature adjourned. In the interest of youth and his health the bill should have been made a law now. The Rotary club was honored to have Rotary Governor Ray Willis as its guest the other evening. Governor Willis in ordinary, smalltown style brought a message of good-will and stated one of the purposes of the service organization was "to establish a better understanding and a more lasting friendship among all the peoples of the world." The local club was impressed with Mr. Willis’ sincerity, his unselfish outlook on community cooperation and his wholesome expressions. Tlw housing survey is to be made in Decatur next week.

The Citizens Telephone Company is planning additional improvements to its system, including the extension of the lines to the Decatur Homestead division. Petition will be made to install more than 7,500 feet of armored underground cable along Mercer avenue and High street, the old telephone poles being removed from the sidewalks as soon as the new circuit is put Into service. The improvements are In keeping with the company's policy to give patrons the most modern type of utility equipment and efficient service at all times. 1) HELLER Huey Long might be able to make some of the natives of the Louisiana cane brake region believe his fantastic story of "share-our-wealtli", but any person who I stops to think will see the falacy of his doctrine and the impossibil- ! ity of carrying out his program. This country was founded on the light of ownership and the individual's ingenuity to build his own business, large or small. We don't believe the country will ever come ■ to the stage when it would be willing to follow Huey, but for the ■ sake of argument, say. that the bombastic senator was in control' and tried to put his plan through. Capital investments could be transferred to foreign nations, the owners could become citizens of other countries or refuse to run their I plants and where wouid the country be. Take away from business the I opportunity to earn a profit or build ; a fortune and how many of I able to do it, would push the ball. ' Huey rambles like a galoot and his I line of logic is so silly no one with ' a grain ot common sense will believe him. K. OF C. DRIVE. An international m e m b e r ship drive has been launched by the Knights of Columbus in the expectation of adding at least 10 per cent to the 500,000 who are already enrolled in that organization. While the appeal is denominational, its success is of interest and concern to all Americans who are aware of the work, usefulness and the ideals ol the Knights of Columbus. They are ever ready to do more than their share in support of Community Funds, in promoting good eitizenshTp, social service end public welfare undertakings wherever there is opportunity. The Knights of Columbus is a directing agency through which Catholic laymen arc lending a helping hand where it may be needed in hundreds of ways and countless places. It cooperates with those going to the aid of the stricken in China or Japan, with the victims of political oppression in Mexico, with the orphans aud needy in i Europe as well as in this country ■and Canada. It has raised and exi pended more thjvn $8,000,000 in | evening schools anti educational work for ex-service men. One of its activities, of special utercst in Indiana, is work on beulf of boys and designated as Boy guidance. That lias resulted in establishing near Terre Haute the Gibault Home for Boys and in the endowment at Notre Dame of a professional training course in Boy Guidance. The drive is headed by such prominent laymen as Alfred E. Smith and Governor Curley of Masstichttsetts in 'he national field. Peter C.

charge/ $Y CHARLEY aAAhT In these times it seems that its just a matter of life and debt. Many a girl gets a fellow ip the palm of her hand to get him undus her thumb, Many a chap cooks his goose talking turkey to his chicken. Yep. every age should do some-1 thing for the ages. After all, it’s the choice folks who are usually chosen. Kenneth Leary says: “Many a kid is just a chip off the old blockhead;” There’s a lot of folks who live on the same square who don't move in the same circles. When a couple start . spooning thy re soon doubling up. Nope, there isn't a single excuse for being a double crosser. Too much steppin' out keeps many a young fellow from sleppih' up.

Hoiites are built with an air space in the wall. The outside, of your chosen material, the inside of lathe and plaster, in the past we thought this space of air acted as insulation. This air is very active, forcing the warm air upward and out The .plaster is very thin and looses the warm air quite readily. Warm air, always seeking the highest level, escapes through the ceeling in a remarkable way. The roof is built to turn the rain and snow but like the plaster cannot seal the warm air within.

Hall, an engineer In Alexandria. Indiana, after various experiments developed a “wool” from IlmestonJ. The stone is reduced to a molten mass, then steam its blown through this mass, giving a wool with many tiny air cells which prevent the passage of heat from one side to the other. The wool is fire and water proof. This rock wool is used for insulation. Thi<s woel is made into bats.
