Charter Member of The Indiana* League of Home Dailies. CHARLES A. DUGAN . A dominant figure in his community for years and active in business almost up until the last day Os his life, the death of Charles A. Dugan not on>y causes grief among friends far and near, but removes from the ranks one of Decatur's leading citizens and wise counselors. Mr. Dugan's life was marked with more than the ordinary mark of succhss, attributed, it might be said, because he possessed unusual faculties, in addition to charm, talents and keen vision. As a young man he rapidly climbed the ladder of his first chosen profession, that of teaching. He taught school, was graduated from Indiana university and in 1887 was elected superintendent of the Decatur public schools. He served with great credit in this position, bis college and post-graduate work admirably fitting him for the important post. It was during his residence here as sui>erintendent that he first gained a love for Decatur and its people.
• Continuing his career in this profession, he accepted the chair of professor of mathematics at Blackburn University, Carlonville, Illinois, remaining there until 1894. More than 40 years ago Mr. Dugan because connected with the First National Bank, now the First State Bank, and In tins profession the community will long remember him. He was the active directing liead of the institution for many years and his unusual success has Been told and written scares of times and imbedded in the minds of those who watched his career as bank executive.
•» Under his management, the local bank was one of the few in the United States that did not close Us doors previous to the Presidential moratorium and in 1933 it v{as among the first three to be rbopened following the banking holiday. He knew banking and guided his institution through the crisis and before his death saw it grow to greater heights. „ He was known in state and national banking circles and was one qf the deans in the Indiana State Banker’s association, having served as treasurer nf that organization a tew years before his death. He was often consulted by fellow bankers and served in many advisory capacities in the state organization. ,Hls death is a loss to the community and it is fitting that we pause in paying our final respects. To his family he was the ideal husband and father and to him his home offered solace and rest and enjoyment with loved ones. Our deepest sympathy is extended to them and to his banking associates aad fellow workers. •Governor McNutt Indicate- that it will not be necessary to call a special session of the legislature this summer.

Governor McNutt proposes to use the funds to cany on the state’s share of the federal program and most of the people will approve his wise and prudent action.

Sheriff Brown reports that a fewi motorists have gotten the idea that! the oval highway is a race trackl and he fears serious injury to the little tots scampering over the place unless care is used. It sounds funny to hear that con- J
gress wants to adjourn because it's | hot in Washington. Is it any hot-' ter there than any place else, for instance a country newspaper office? They tell us that the Capitol building is air-cooled and if that is the case we wow'd like to work there during the summer.

BANDIT KILLED DURING HOLDUP —'— ■ Elevator Operator Also Slain During Daring Robbery Chicago. July 29. (U.R) — Sal " Manno, 25, bandit shot last night in a daring station holdup, died to-, day. Besides the robber, an elevator operator was killed and an offt-. cers was injured so seriously he may die. Three bandits entered a drug store in the Chicago and Northwestern sta’ion and demandd the, week-end receipts. Dan Haskell, elevator operator, barred their way and without warning they shot him down. Two police. James Frawley and Franklin Smith, who were waiting in the station for a suburban train, heard the shooting and rushed into the store. The robbers broke through a glass door, gun poised, and began firing. Frawley dropped, wounded ■tn the abdomen. Then the bandit trio separated. The one who killed Haskell dashed out the door. Officer Smith commanded him to halt but the order was met with two wild pistol shots. Smith retaliated and the man. later Identified as Manno, fell wounded. Another bandit tied upstairs but his way was blocked by Ot*o Bottger, a telegraph operator. “Get out of the way or I’ll plug you,” shouted the man. Bottger moved aside and the man fled. The third bandit lost himself in the crowd that witnessed the shooting. — o —— * Household Scrapbook by ROBERTA LEE Crystallized Jelly Do not thr w away last year's telly thut has crystallized.
