Invest In a Centenhial Good Will Bond And this is supposed to be the month of beautiful Valentines. The weather man must have had authentic information about the latest storm. Show your faith in Decatur by buying CENTENNIAL GOOD WILL BONDS. Suppose you lived one hundred years ago—before the modern store or furnace was invented. You d think it was colder. To be really modern the automobile of the future should carry a supply of anti freeze fluid for melting ice on the highways. Only 2,000 Centennial Good Will Bonds will be sold. Be one of the first to obtain a souvenir of the Centennial and a certificate of your support toward community building. William Beineke. prominent De-; catur citizen, who has lived more! than the proverbial three scorej and ten years, vouches that the■ present winter is the most severel lie has ever seen. We agree with him. Mr. Beineke stated he could not recall a time when the country had such a run of below zero weather and when there V«s so much ice. Chalk up the present record for your grandchildren. Five Civil war veterans, all former members of the G. A. IL, called on President Roosevelt the other day. Such a gathering tn worthy of the Recognition of the President and no doubt the chief executive felt humble in their presence. The "boys of ’65" as they called themselves visited thenational capital for the purpose of making arrangements for the encampment next September. It will be a great patriotic event. - The Public Works Administrator has authorized the city council to re-adverlise for bids for the new turbine, condenser and other equipment to be installed in the municipal plant. Bids will be received this month and in all probability the prices will be lower than those first received. The Federal Emergency Administration held that the bids as reeeiv.-a wire identical and for that mason requested the council to reject the first offers and readvertise. Governor Olson of Minnesota has hud several nasty charges hurled at him. The widow of the late Walter Liggett, murdered newspaper publisher of Minneapolis pointed her finger at the govCi nor and said he knew of the plot to kill her husband. Olson has nol yet been heard from. It’s luird to believe that anyone who climbs to the highest elective office in the state should have a connection with criminals and the underworld, but such things do

happen now and then in this couni try. Time will bring out the entire story. The county commissioners have '■ notified James D. Adams, chairt man of the statu highway commission, that al! except two of the t contracis for right of way along the proposed 101 state road east 1 of Decatur have been obtained. Condemnation proceedings will be > started to clear the remaining < ones. The county paid for the ’ land and obtained the easements > ) in quick order, proving to the > highway commission that we do J business up this way and that we believe in improved roads The state proposes to build the road this year. At the request of President Roosevelt, the Bankhead cotton control, the Kerr-Smith tobacco ; and the potato control acts will be repealed by congress, the senate already taking favorable action on the suggestion. The three laws, I more or less invalidated by the Supreme court's invalidation of the AAA, could not have been en•l forced separately or in view of the court's adverse ruling. It this section of the country there I 'was very little sentiment for the [potato control law and its repeal j will no doubt meet popular approval. —* o ' ♦ Answers Ta Test Questions I Below are the answers to the Test Questions printed on Page Two ♦ • 1 "Mad Anthony."' 2 .

COMMISSION 10 DECIDE RULING Public Service Commission To Rule On Huntington Plant Indianapolis. F«'b. 5- <U.R> dslon on Mayor Clar* "• » Bangs' latest move in hlx Bkh with th,- Northern Indiana Power company at Huntington rested today with the public service com mission. The commi.'slon considered a volume of evidence given yestetday tn an al! day hearing on a petition of Bangs' followers to establish a third electric utility—the Municipal Light and Power company. The petition asked that a public necessity and convenience be declared and an indeterminate permit be granted. In the same fiery manner which he has displayed in his two-yeur fight with the power company. Bangs personally directed questioning and cross-examination of j witnesses in an effort to prove the N. I. P. facilities were inadequate i for Huntington patrons. Farmerg, a druggist, city employes und a housewife were placed on the witness stand byBangs to support his theory. The power company presented I its own employes and Huntington manufacturers to show its facili- j ties were among the best in the | state and that customers were | satisfied with the service. Bangs’ chief contention was that the N. 1. P. charged "excessive rates in comparison to those of cities near and of the same size as Huntington; that its equipment was worn out and that citizens had been denied service.’’ Tlie company countered the testimony with evidence showing that rates are those approved by I the commission and that oojec-1 tions should be taken up in a rate case instead of in a move to 'establish another utility. Members of the commission indicated a decision would be given 1 this weekend. The hearing, hekl in the chain-1 | ber of the house of representa- ■ tives. was attended by nearly 200 I persons, including Indiana Farm ' bureau representatives. Hunting- j ton citizens and others who have j ’ followed the long scrap between ! Bangs and the power company. - L ■ ■ . (J Larger Crowd At K. P.
