The weather man seems to have gotten his March and April mixed and we are having an old fashion- j ed March. It’s not so bad at that | and it won't be long now until you can quit worrying about the coal | pile. Remember this is the time for third party talk but time slips along and those who are now threatening will fail to effect an organisation | that will get anywhere next year. It takes a lot of enthusiasm, considerable money and an intense desire to do those things. Forty-three Decatur property owners need to repair their houses and the FHA committee has so recommended. If this work is done now. it will provide employment, save the homes of these citizeus and help make this a l>etter community in every way, Bruno Hauptmann probably doesn't care a hang about whether Reilly is paid or not or wtiat becomes of the money his wife is raising. He is however deeply interested in saving his own neck and will consent to any thing which Tfe thinks will aid along that line. -The payment of a twenty-five per cent distribution to depositors of the Old Adams County bank will be welcomed by the several thousand, whose funds have been tied | up in that old institution. The entjjjoyes were busy today handing put checks and the recipients were! smiling. Let the good work go on. • Business is better, especially for j those who advertise and it is go-, tag to continue. If the farmersin this territory get a good crop i this year and the prices hold, as it is almost certain they will, the depression will really be over for many folks. Tell the folks what you have to sell and be surprised at the results.

in 1929, and with tbo sugar factory soy bean plant, fertilizer mill, and all the other factories here going at capacity, with the outlook bright for another factory or two, Decatur seems to be well out of the depression. Keep it going. The license fee for tt distiller of whiskey in Indiana is $2,090 and those who attempt to violate the law by the old bootlegging methods will find it the most expensive proposition they ever got into. The new liquor laws seems to fit the present situation and if enforced, will improve general conditions. I making them the best- in many years. Things are at a tough point for the G. O. P. when they rally over the fact that they elected part of the officials in the state election 1 in Michigan last week. That state is normally about 500,000 Republican and the surprise is that they didn't make a better showing [ There is not indication of the vot- ' era going back to the conservatives for some time to come. The government has accepted the homestead houses here and in a very short time will turn them over to the purchasers. The project here, it is said, is the most satisfactory in the country. The homes are modern and attractive, the grounds will be beautified and the new subdivision will be one of the most attractive to be found any where. Every one is very happyover this experiment and the fact that this city was chosen as the place for it. The distribution of nearly five} billion dollars in this country ought l to improve conditions to a normal point. After much consultation, the United States senate and congress has passed the important work relief bill and it will become N a law with President Roosevelt's | signature. His program is unknown l in detail but it is assured that every penny will be so spent as to provide the greatest employment at living wages. From whatever source the money conies, it is sure to help make general conditions better and once we have stopped slipping, the recovery will be rapid. It will be interesting to watch what Will happen with the spending of five billion dollars, equivalent to about fifty dollars tot each man. woman and child in the United States. What will iiappen it that don't bring about the desired prosperity? However, that's probably not the way to look at it. Let's; all think that we are going to have I good times, act accordingly and we j will get them. The greater liappii ness in this world is contentment, [and did it ever occur to you that you don't need a milion dollars to make you that way? * With Our Subscribers } ♦» —— ♦ ; H.
