Renew your subscription for the Daily Democrat if you get it by mail. Tho cost is low. we. promise you a lot of news the next year and now is the time. Spring is just around the corner and its time to plan your business. There is going to be many advances and improvements and lite hustler and the wise business man will got his share. If you don't own a few Center i nial bonds when the campaign is i over, you will really not have a] souvenir worth keeping. It's to be a big e.vent and those who buy I bonds will be the stockholders. These are g»md days for colds and that's something that we hadn’t ought to fool with. The ■ doctors advise a day or two in bed with proper treatment to avoid, weeks of illness and perhaps serious results. Haug on a couple of weeks longer and you will really be able to think about spring. Winter won't be over, but the backbone should be broken and once that happens, we won't need to expect the kind of weather that makes twenty-inch ice. - Tlie newspaper writers who are trying to make it appear that the country has gone to the dogs must feel a little foolish when they read' the statement of the Metropolitan Lite insurance company and other large organizations, showing alltime new records for business. This is not a very good time to go walking in the ice it seems. Each day we read of people who are lost and for whom extensive and expensive search must be made. You probably will be better off if you keep on dry ground for a few weeks, avoiding ice bergs and airplanes. Hitch up old ''Lizzie" and drive down to Indianapolis next Saturday for the editorial banquet, at which time you will hear interesting addresses by Senator Barkley of Kentucky. Senators VanNuys and Minton and Governor McNutt of Indiana, also much political gossip from many different sources. Watch your step Hundreds of people have received broken bones from falls ou the icy streets or walks over the middle west. Even when you have the right of way it is best to be careful and to keep your eye on approaching ears. After its all over and you are "busted" up, it dot-m'l. make much difference who was right. Officiate in every city north of Florida are having their troubles lliesc days in trying Io keep the streets passable. About the time 'he ice t« taken off. along comes more snow, sleet and rain and than another coating of ice. it costs

plenty of money and every one i» | in a bud hutnor, expecting oßlciahby some super power to do the impossible. President Roosevelt is healthier than when he entered office three years ago and does a big days work each twenty-four hours. He advances towards the coming campaign in guy spirits because he cun meet every issue. He has been honest and capable and fearless ami the people are with him in his efforts to continue this as the greatest nation in the world. Congressman James I. Farley of this district is a candidate for renomination and his petition is now being circulated in each county in the district. He has made a good record and stands high in the house where he is a member of the very important banking committee. He will return home for a few days this week, to look after business and will attend the Itfiliana Democratic Editorial meeting at Indianapolis next Saturday. The body of Charles Curtis, form- | er United States senator and vice- ; president under Mr. Hoover, lies in state today in the eapitol at Topeka, Kansas, where he had so often led political battles. His life is an Alger story. Reared in an Indian camp, he made ills way by his own efforts, inspired by the advice of his squaw grandmother, who told him to follow the whites. He was a great lawyer, a successful politician and a statesman of the old school. Its not all peace in the Republican ranks, it seems. Senator j Borah is too progressive for the ' average easterner and they are after him with all their amunition. I In Ohio. Senator Fess is leading I a spirited fight against the Idaho statesman and it will grow to a ’ point where it will become critical, according to the opinion of the best political seers. Evidently not ail ' tho walking will be done by the j Al Smith crowd or from the Democratic convention only. Q Modern Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE Q.
