Make Decatur the greatest city of homes In America. Help keep the city streets clean. Don’t Utter them with advertising bibs. Next on the holiday calendar L comes Labor Day, then goodbye to summer. Decatur was happy to entertain the Legionnaires, Women's Auxiliary and guests. The Republicans are figuring on taking a straw vote. Why not let the Literary Digest do it? If you sti'J have both eyes and unburned fingers consider your Fourth of July celebration a happy one. The summer season is now at its height and the next sixty day's should bring happy vacations, relaxation and resting of nerves. Prisoners at the Pendleton Re-j formatorjlshoiild be convinced that i it ds as difficult to escape from that pena.l institution as if the GMen were or. the Job. More lights have been placed on .the parking lot on First stieet. Both entrances are well lighted and auto drivers can see where they are going. Don’t park in tho . driveways. Give the other fellow a chance to park.. i Well, well. Schweitzer, the Dei I tro.t parasite wanted to start a f tent show and give his girt friends ( employment, so lie planned the ( murder of Attorney Dickinson. There's a man with ambition and cunning Joo bad Michigan does not have the electric chair. City“employes who have been employed for a year or more will be given a week's vacation with pay this jpear. Many of the men have put jn years of service and . a few days vacation will refresh them and restore vigor so they can ta.ckle their Jobs with renewed energy. Bank deposits in Indiana banks

have increased greatly since last March. Savings accounts have also multiplied and the number of customers have likewise increased. A new banking structure is being built in this country and it is unlikely that the next generation wJJ see anything like the collapse in 1933. ...

suggestion has been made that if I I a right-of-way could be obtained, a 1 jdriveway could be built, providing the cost was not too great. It I would be a scerXs road, affording I pleasure to many. ' Towns after all are like one big family. Each business, each person, is more or less dependent on the other. Harmony and teatn- ( work in the home accomplish woni res and problems are licked as fast | 1 [as they arise. With employer and* 1 I employe working together the same 1 . good results are realized. Decatur i is a peaceful, progressive contmttn- 1 i:y, tolerant in every respect and progress already made -in local] factory and industrial expansion is j the result of this work-together spirit. Let's continue the policy. ; The old saying in the sport world , is that the team which holds first ■ place on July Fourth will win the i pennant. In the American league I the New Ymk Yankees are three, games ahead and in the National! league the New York Giants hold ■ first place. However, the old adage | | 'lid not prove true last year. The ! Yankees and Giants were severa’' games Ahead on the Fourth and towards the end of the Season “hit I a slump and wound up on the sec-| ond wrung of the ladder. It would ; be a good thing for baseball if i both New York teams did not win the pennants. How the times get scrambled! Horse stealing is supposed to be a criminal act of a long gone generation. Horse thief detective asso-

, ciations have long since yielded to i . automobile theft insurance; yet a horse was stolen from a Huntington county farm only a few nights ago. It was done in the modern | manner, according to the evidence, j The thief didn’t ride off on a stol-1 en steed at break neck gait with [ a grim posse in hot pursuit. Noth-I ing so adventuresome as that; only j another crime; committed with I modern tools. A snip of the wires i opens the fence and the Staten j booty is loaded into an automobile i trailer to be whizzed far away be-; i i fore any horse owner could suspect j , his animal war, .in danger from i marauders in this age of the ma-1 j I chine. Sympathy goes to the own-! , ler who lost his property, of course, ' jhut tor some sentimental reason '| the ®ost distressing side to this ’■unfortunate incident' seems to be' > the Insulting indignity to the horse,:

The top picture shows how the store appeared several months ago, before improvements were started. A modern store front was installed adding “sales appeal” as well as attractiveness. The biack front, trimmed with chromium, lends a smart- air to the merchandise displayed in the spacious show windows. New transom lighting was added and the entire building was repainted in four colors in a brick effect. The old awnings were replaced with a new type that roll up out of sight. The electric sign was rebuilt. The paved sidewalk in front of the building was repaired. Such modernization projects for commercial properties May be carried out under the modernization credit plan of the Fedetjal Housing Administration, under'which credit up to $50,000 is available through private lending agencies.
