He has been in trouble frequently. Boys, it doesn't pay. The 1 same effort along straight lines is so much better. The crops in this section look good and with reasonable weather the next few months should go a long ways towards making every farmer more prosperous than he has been for years. That is particularly true here where we have the beet and soy bean crops in addition to all the others. The Easter services in Decatur and Adams county were beautiful and sincere and were largely attended.

The new walks look fine and are. Its wise to take advantage of the opportunity to secure the improvements at such low cost and at the l same time provide work for a numr Iter of men. Already many rods have been laid and the new applit cations assure that the boys have just gotten a good start. 1 As usual the teams which were I doited by the winter fans as the weakest are getting away to a good i , start in the big league races but of j course the standings at this part 1 of the season isn’t what counts. ' Its the long, steady pull that de-' ! rides the races and this you won't 1 be able to figure out until along about the first of September. The security bill which provides a thirty dollar a month pension to persons over 65. of which the federal government agrees to provide one half, passed the house by a, vote of 372 to 33. Further evidence that President Roosevelt still has a little something to say about things, regardless of what the partisan press, Huey Long and a few others may say about it. Some of the public works under. the federal plan may be wasted but, we will always feel that the rail- [ way crossings as proposed, will be j worth every penny they cost. This I will relieve grave dangers and no | doubt save thousands of lives during the years to come. President | Roosevelt has appropriated 1200.- ■ 000,000 for this purpose and that 1 will put in a lot of overhead crosst ings. o-

Service through the next week beginning at 7:30 p. tn. Rev. Lester Fix led congregational singing. A good delegation frqm Huntington attended the services. Miss Bernice Brodbeck presided at the piano, and with her cousin. Rufus Brodbeck, sang a special number. A very encouraging testimonial service was held. Mrs. C.i E. Sharrow sang “What Will 5 oil Do With Jesus.” Rev. Fix, the pastor, announced he would preach tonight on “A Bible Hell." Rev. Fix preached a very able sermon on "There was no room for them in the inn.” — Luke 2-i. “Every girl hoped to be the mother of the Savior from the time God said. ‘The seed of the woman should bruise the serpents head.’ Just as there was no room for Christ in His day, so today there is no room for Christ in America. In Glendale, California, my wife and I stayed tour blocks from the nudist colony. The airplane# wore taking pictures exposing their sin. were fined $25 by the government for upholding sin. The women got busy sending in protests till the councilman were removed. In Idaho the pastor was asked to preach at a 2:30 service. On arriving the people had'gone to a ball game, left word for him to slay and preach, after which he did, but was never asked to return. In Chicago 40 thousand marriages, 30 per cent of these were divorcedi . in less than a year. Only one reas-i on for divorce.
