Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dailies. Most folks are glad they didn't live over in Formosa where the earthquake took more than three thousand lives. The Adams County Conservation League will not only have a good time but will do much to help keep this county on the map. The five billion dollars will soon be working and it should bring much prosperity by furnishing employment for many, both direct and indirect. Now they want to release Mathers, the man who killed Rev. Saunders for ten bucks. A petition is being circulated in Boone county to secure leniency. Why is so much effort made for a murderer? Indiana business conditions in March were the best since July of 1931.’which ought to quiet the fears of those who insist we are going baclfUard. On the contrary we are going forward as rapidly as it is heafthy to advance. Every motorist will be glad to slow up if signs indicate danger of , ■hitting some one and that's the condition at the Country Club, , ■where flayers cross the highway and are hidden by hills until the ( jpars are right on them. The Republicans are wasting a lot of time organizing a year ahead. By that time there will be many changes. Os course the main thing being advocated just now is the raising of money which will come in handy whatever happens In the meantime. Every business barometer indicates improvement and we seem to be. well around the corner. Just don’t give too much attention to the Long and Hasting tirades over the radio or in the press, but keep Tight on trying ami you will get there soon and satisfactorily. Decatur will welcome ministers and delegates to the conference to be held here and will extend to them every courtesy. This paper will cover the big meeting and ’give to the public those items of interest from the time of opening until its close, our staff being assisted by Rev. Sundermann and others of the conference.

Right ou top of a Purdue Unii versity report showing that farmers' iueonies in Indiana last year were increased more than $60,000,I 000 comes the prediction of other r farm experts that Hoosier wheat growers will reap more than $27,t 000,000 from their crops this year. That is a long step from Moscow t regimentation we heard so much . about in the last campaign. Senator Gottschalk does not fav- > or the combining of Adams county with any other aud says there 1 never was any basis for such a I i story. So far as his committee is 1 concerned, such a proposition was never discussed. He and his assoelates are working out a plan for more economic government which he believes will meet the approval of every good citizen. He does not believe a special session of the legislature will be called unless Governor McNutt feels it is absolutely necessary and will result in good to the taxpayers. Members of Governor McNutt s legislative tax study committee, who toured surrounding states to come home convinced that Indiana i is a veritable paradise so far as taxes and fiscal matters are concerned. thereafter locked into township tax history in their home counties. In ten counties it was found that through the period from 1914 to 1935 inclusive, state taxes had shown an average decrease of JI.SS per capita in the townships. However, increased school taxes make the average township cost increase $1.61 per capita. Lets see how that works out. A Democratic state administration was the first to reduce the state property tax levy below 28 cents for many! years. Now it is only 15 cents on the SIOO of taxable property. So the credit for state property tax reductions goes to Democratic of- g flee holders. But it was under a e Republican governor and by a Re- a publican legislature that the de- g vise of holding companies for the i expensive public school 1 gymnasiums was invented. Even , with the best of township school t managements under Democratic t trustees, little leeway is found for J cutting down the burdensome 0 school bond debts that Republican * extravagance incurred in the boom J years. And by the way. it is due c to Republican-incurred bond debts c that the $1 and $1.50 tax limitation laws are found to be unworkable j. in the majority of our taxing units.

CHURCH REVIVALS United Brethren Mission This second week of the revival sees an increase in spirit and power. The daily prayer meetings are a source of power and inspiration to all who attend.

Wilbur Fix, the pastor, preached a very able sermon from Luke 12-21. Subject, “The Character and End of a Sceptic." “Thou fool this night , shall thy soul be required of thee. As a dying mortal who has to appear before God very much uncon-'[ cerned. Why does Christ himself) call this man a fool. Sonic say be ' cause he was rich. Prov. 14-8:9.i The folly of fools is great. Abraham was rich, Solomon was rich, God gave to lioth. This man talk ed to his soul, lie couldn't sec eating. drinking, docs not satisfy the soul. The soul must reach beyond tite world do to satisfy itself. Look how God treats this man. The language is cutting. God says ‘Ulis night', he says many years. God says, ‘thou fool’. Wc say Judas sold out for sl6. People today sell out for less than sl6. The modernist destroy the word of God.

God is declaring he is still on the throne displaying hi>» judgments on the earth. God will make a fool out of the sceptics and modernists, i The cigaret evil is one way a fool is made out of a person. Never saw a man or woman a soul winner and went to a theater.
