This idea of keeping clean is profitable to the soap manufacturers. One of the large companies rol'ed up a net profit of 15 million dollars tue past year and that's a big bubble even to the suds makers.. Visitors to Decatur next week will be shown every courtesy. Extra traffic officers will assist in guiding motorists to the different streets and convenient parking places and extend to all a hearty welcome to the fair. How about the weeds? Have you cm them? Indianapolis lias warned property owners that if weeds are not cut within five days, arrest will be made on the grounds that they are a hindrance to traffic. The same action can be taken In other towns and the weed nuisance quickly eliminated. ' Ora Baker and his assistants performed good service in rerouting the state roads through this city for fait week. The markers were changed and set up in new locations and through traffic will not be inconvenienced in the least by the detours. Every road is plainly marked and well routed. Second street will be closed during fair week and permission has been given to string welcome banners from one side to the other. They will be removed ax the end of the week. It is held that the banners create a hazard by diverting the driver’s eye and the state highway department discourages their use under ordinary conditions. The FERA office distributed more than SIOO,OOO for labor during its 15 months of operation here. Many worth while projects were undertaken aatd completed during the time and local relief funds were kept within bounds through the expenditure of federal money.

vice to the Individual employed and to the community. Not many people will get much of a thrill out of the announcement that Sam Insull is to be given a $21,000 a year pension from the companies he formerly served as president. In the first place, tbe amount is too big. He could live on less und Ws management of the utilities does not exactly call for a big salary now. It would smack better with the public if he were given a nominal amount. C. H. Kraft, vice-president of the Kraft-Phenix Cheese Corp., will tie one of the principal speakers at the Dairy Day program next week. He will have a message of great interest to the dairy-minded people of this community. Mr. Kraft represents one of the oldest and largest dairy products concerns in the country and is deeply Interested in furthering the development of the industry. The hundreds of dairy farmers will be happy to know that he will appear on the program and discuss with them pertinent phases of this important and leading industry. Additional evidence that President Roosevelt is as strong as he ever was in the estimation of the average citizen comes this week from the commonwealth of Virginia. in order to test the Presidents popularity, the Richmond Times-Dispatch received almost 5,000 signed ballots from 90 of Virginia’s 100 counties. The voters signified their political preference on the proposition, “I (favor) (do not favor) the re-election of President Roosevelt.” At the end of the first week, there were 3,392 pro-Roosevelt votes and 1,390 antiRoosevelt votes. In other words, 70 per cent of the voters were for the President. When one realises that Mr. Rooselt won approximately 69 per cent of the votes of Virginians in 1932, it is not difficult to determine the strength of his support. —Journal-Gazette. Walter Williams, the man, was known less throughout the United States than the ideals of journalism for which he stood and the success with which he infused them into the newspaper profession. His death at the age of 71 years removes a unique figure who established the record of attaining a college education. He was a pioneer in founding an outstanding school of journalism which became the model for numerous courses now connected with the average university and college, ft was no exaggeration to say of Mr. Williams that he found journalism a trade and helped make it a profession. Before he established the department of journalism at the University of Missouri, newspaper folk were, recruited largely from the school of experience. A close parallel was provided by the national pastime of baseball, which found much of its rough and readymaterial on .the country’s sandlots. The college campus now supplies many of the game's stars. —Indianapolis Star. o— —e Answers To Test Questions Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed on Page Two. 1.
