The kind of spring fever to have i this year fs the energy driving ■ variety. And who ever thought the newspapers wouldn’t have anything to print after the war. The fury of the March lion will I have to show itself in the next few I days or the latnb will continue to . hold sway. Next year is another election ■ year, which is one way of saying that Decatur's Centennial will be a greater event. I With these bright and sun shiny I days it's hard to fee! down hearted I or lose faith in the country. Your spirits should lie high. HaptmaiHl's wife thinks the lie detector would prove hint innocent. Chances are she could tell more about her jtusbaud's whereabouts ; on the night of the kidnaping than was brought out in court. Old houses are being torn down and a few stew ones are being built ; this year. We have every reason I to forget about the old depression ■ in litis community and plan in a ■ constructive way for the future. Let’s do it. Railroad lompanies arc restoring wages to ]J)3o levels, millions being added to the payrolls of work- ■ ers. Every community will be benefited, because of lie wage increase and- the employes will appreciate the step in earning power. Tinies are getting better so don't complain too much or expe. t everything to be done over night. The new liquor control lawshould sped the doom of the bootlegger. The law provides for the prosecution of the man or woman who violates this provision and assesses a heavy fine, to which may he added a jail sentence. Those who do not have permits to engage in Ute business should keep out of it. unless they are anxious to pay a tine or enjoy laying it out. A needed improvement will be the repair of the catch basins throughout' the city, plans being made by Civil Works Commissioner Koop to elevate or lower the pavements around them so ( the water can get away hurriedly. Mr. Roop also proposes to seal some of the basins, preventing sewer gas from escaping and will continue his program as long as finances warrant. Now the railroads are going to launch an extensive newspaper advertising campaign, inviting the traveling public to use the trains, if sm h a policy was followed years ago when the high class sales-sell-ing arguments of the auto companies started, the passenger business might not have slumped as great as it did. Railroads are coming back. Faster and mote commodious trains are being operated

This country should be able to support its 1 railroads and at the same time enT Joy the pleasures of utito driving t It Is impossible to exaggerate the importance of the German re- ( fusal to continue to keep within ~ the arms stipulations of the Vert sallies treaty, it has been feared that she would do this ever since 2 Hitler went in—and every nation I hoped against hope that it would II never happen. Under the treaty, i , Germany's army is limited to 100,j 000 men, and she is not allowed to • have much in the way of aircraft. artillery, tanks. Now she will quadruple her army, greatly extend compulsory military training of citizens, and will build up her defensive and offensive equipment as much as she likes. Inevitable result will be a boom in the munii tious industries-and another long step toward European war. Every , European country will, supposedly ' in self-defense, also increase arma- ”' ments and armies. It will then be , a case of waiting for the opportune time to try them out.

That is one reason why eye defects are so prevalent today We sometimes overlook the fact that our eyes, in order to see clearly, need an abundance of glareless light: far more than we usually give them Two Lamps Give Balanced Arrangement It is unreasonable to expect one lone lamp to provide enough light for two people seated on a divan, unless that piece, of furniture is placed away from the wall—alongside a fireplace, for exampie—in which case It should be placed at the rear center.

Light Shades Help ’ A really sensible way to light a divan situated against a wall is ' shown in the upper right illustration Here we have two end tables , with lamps of proper height, each , equipped with two SO-watt bulbs. * (Smaller bulbs cannot be expected to give the required amount of light. > These lamps are not of the "dinky” decorative type, but really do a good job of providing illumina- » tion. Note. too. that the shades t are quite light in color, permitting . the light to < ome through, and are s open at the top. letting some of the - light escape to the ceiling, where it i helps to illuminate the entire room, t and provides a soft, "smoothing” • effect, appreciated by all.
