So is the second and all the rest of them.l on the icy streets and walks. The merchant who is not telling his customers about the goods that ■will make them more comfortable during this old fashioned winter weather, is asleep to his oppor-, tunities. The delinquent tax list may seem a little large but remember this covers several of the worst years ever known in this country and is small compared to the list in most counties. This is a good time to buy winter merchandise. You can get the finest goods at the lowest prices, use them two or three months this' year and be ready for the cool breezes next autumn. Decatur and Adams county will celebrate the Centennial this year. The committees are getting down to work and within a short time will have a program that will delight and enthuse every one. Accidents have really been less than usual the past week, because even the most reckless realize that they can t go smashing ibout on the ice without winding up in a field or hanging on a telegraph pole. The sixteen-year-old daughter of James A. Moffett, vice-president of the Standard Oil Company eloped and married Harry Taft Johnson, 24, and now they seek the bk tsing of their disappointed parents. So you don't have all the troubles , and worries. The difference between baby bonds and currency to meet the two billion dollar bonus payy roll seems to be the interest charge on the former, except that no nation has ever held long which started the.promiscous printing of money and that might be a big difference to all of us.

i tlve if they had a program, platI form and candidate that they could begin to agree on. If they have something better to offer, tho country will approve it, but they will have to show us that they can even begin to match the record of the past three years. C. Clifford Townsend, candidate for the Democratic nomination for governor, in a recent speech, put it this way, "if Uncle Sam was I justified in going into debt to the extent of twenty-six billion to protect his people in time of war, is he not equally justified in incurring debt to protect the same people from the no less deadly ravages of depression?" One could scarcely keep from feeling thrilled if he listened to the radio report of the meeting in | New York Sunday when the memorial was dedicated to the late T. R. Roosevelt with Franklin D. Roosevelt as the principal speaker. It was an outstanding event and the words there expressed by the President and others will be quot- ■ ed in years to come because of the ■ truths so well spoken. This community is in sorrow today as the funeral services were held for one of our splendid women, Mrs. James Elberson. Dur- ! ing her life here she was associati ed with various groups and worked ' incessantly for the benefit of others. A devout lady, interested in literacy, church and lodge activities, she did much to aid and will I will be missed with sadness by many. A radio announcer in presenting ’ distinguished Democrats at the meeting of the national committee said, "Just entering the door is ' Jesse James, who heads the RFC.' He should of course have said: : Jesse Jones and claims it was a i 'slip of the tongue. Since however . ’ it seems to be in keeping with other incidents by those opposed to the administration, such as the cartoon stamps being circulated, there arc some who doubt the "slip" part. Joe Louis is going to Honolulu j on a delayed honeymoon, theorizing that he needs a rest before he meets Schmelling and Braddock next June and September. Look out, Joe. That’s the way all of them have slipped. The usual world champion gets a bunch of money quickly, feels he is -.iiltled to some pleasures and a rest from perfect training and then when they attempt to come back, find they have lost the extra punch that . has been so evident with the brown 1 bomber. KING GEORGE V. Millions listened over radios last evening to the bells of Westminster A' bey with bowed heads, as they mournfully rang out the news of the death of King George V of England, ruler of five hundred million people, beloved and admired by all who had watched his reign. He was a great and good king vho assumed the throne in 1910. Soon thereafter came the nimbi ings of war and in 1914, just four years after his accession, his nation was plunged into the very midst of the world conflict. A cousin of the kaiser of Germany and the Czar of Russia, King George renounced every tie and every connection except tnat of .is own beloved Britain, sent millions of “Tommies" across the channel, many never to return. The loss was great atnl the effect upon England was demoralizing, but this good man was able to hold his country together and to iring order out of chaos. He was the second sou of King j Edward VII und Queen Alexandria, and was trained for the sea while ; Ills elder brother was educated and prepared to assume tile Ihionc. Fat' ruled otherwise and the death of tile eldest brought the modest and retiring navy mini to the ’ throne. He did his best always I

' and his record is perhaps the equal of any in the past century. This morning at ten o'clock his eldest son, the Prince of Wales, became King Edward VIII. He is I as popular with his subjects as was i his father, and advised by his j mother, who it is said aided the former king constantly, will hold his government intact. The world is interested. The King is dead, long live the King. Answers To Test Questions I Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed | on Page Two 1. Henry George. 2. 19153. A sxall planet. 4 English chemist. 5.
