for use beside an easy chair, is that it provides indirect as well as direct lighting The softening quality of the indirect portion provides a gentle scaiteiiiig of tight throughout the room, making paper or magazines easier to concentrate upon. Avoid Harsh Contrasts This is not the case with the lamp shown at the left, wl)ich gives such a small circle of useful light that the rest of the room Is in comparative darkness. You know, science warns against the possible danger to eyes from having harsh contrasts between the light on our books or papers and the surroundi ing area For. it says, when th« ! eyes look up from the page into the , room —as they often do without our I realizing it —they must "shift ! gears,” so to speak, and this tends 1 [to tire them and induce strain. .

DAYS OF NEARLY CONTINUED FRC'M home. ”We often heard the wolves howling as wo lay In bed,” she stated. She never saw uny bears in the county but she noticed their tracks aloipt the banks of Hie S 4. Marys river. When she was about 10 years old the family moved from the 1 little log cabin to a hewed log |home, considered one of the best |„ the county ut ’hat time. The new home had glass windows! The old cabin had only paper pasted along an opening produced by lea'Ing out one of the logs along the | side of the house. The new home I bud puncheon floors. Earn* Pair of Slipper* At a time when Decatur was | celebrating a festival Mrs. Acker, and her brother gathered a large! quantity of gooseberries an <1 brought them n town In «in old pillow case. With 40 cento < f the sale price she Ismght a pair of slippers of which she was very proud. Commenting on the amount of time she was ill in her youth she said. "It was no wonder; we ran summer and winter barefooted. Early illness kept her from all Imt three months of school. She learned to read a little during these three months. Later a cousin, who stayed at her house, taught her to read and write well. "I could spell with the best of them.” she smiled. The chief entertainment of those i days were the various bees, spelling. husking etc. In addition to these community affairs, private dances were popular among the young people. These dances were held in the homes and the favorite dances were the cottilion and the various reels. She was often called upon to lead the dances. Remembers Early Decatur The roads were all mud and travel was difficult. For this reason her trips to town were not nearly as often as those of farmers today. She remembers Decatur at that time as a sparsley settled town layed out only a few years earlier by Samuel Rugg. Thomas Johnson and her father. The houses were mostly of log. She moved to Decatur 40 years ago in order that her daughters might go to high school. Since then she has sometimes wished that she might return to St. Marys township although few of her old friends are still living there. Until two years ago she was very active. She is still able to get around the house and out of doors in the summer. Her mind has retained all of its acuteness and she is able to temper the events of today with the experience of almost a century in her thinking. Her hearing is still good. Her daughter. Miss Eva Acker, and a granddaughter. Mrs. Louis Black, live with her at her home on 227 south First street. Two other daughters are still living. Mrs. Doro Myers of Hartford township and Mrs. Frank Blissner of San Jose, California. Her family includes 15 ; grandchildren and 10 great grand- 1 children. PRESIDENT WINS CONTINUED FROM PAGH ONE them in this crucial test,” Wil- ; liam Green, president of the i American Federation of I-abor, : said in a defiant statement. “Inasmuch as congress ha« re- | i fused to adopt the MeCaiian pre- I vailing wage amendment, labor : must now rely upon its economic possible, the wage standards j strength to protect, so far as ; which it has eet. "Labor will not willingly submit ' to reductions in wages." The administration's senate victory served to break the deadlock which for more than a month had left congress in a confused and uncertain frame of mind. Under vigorous leadership the new deal now is in a position to stress once more the main points of its program and whip congress into line for prompt acquiescence. Green’s warning of use of labor’s economic strength was the second of the week. He voiced a similar threat in declaring that labor would have to rely upon Its own prowess unle’e congress enacted the Wagner labor relations bill. Defeated, on the prevailing wag" issue, labor may now be expected to throw even more enthusiastic support behind the Wagner measure. It has declared also in favor of the Black 30-hour week

Wagner was one of the six senators who on Fei). 21 voted for the McCarran amendment but who yesterday voted against it. The olhers were O'Mahoney of Wyoming and Black of Alabama. Democrats; Austin and Gibson ot Vermont. Republicans, and Follette of Wisconsin. Progressive. Their argument waa that insistence upon the McCarran amend ment, which would have required payment of prevailing wages on all projects under the work relief hill, would have served only to delay and probably eventually defeat the works program. Forty-four Democrats, five Republicans and one Progressive comprised the 50 who vote-1 against the McCarran amendment. Nineteen Democrats. 18 Republicans and a Parmer Laborite voted for the amendment. After the McCarran proposal was defeated the senate adopted, with only two dissenting votes, the substitute ottered by Sen. Richard Russell. D..
