Saturday is a legal holiday in observance of Washington's birthday. The banks will be closed and there will not be any mail delivery. Hauptmann has been sentenced to die during the week A March 29. Did the court overlook that April fool's day comes during the same period'.’ I Indianapolis has an ordinance providing that citizens shall clean the sidewalks of snow aud ice and is experiencing more or less trouble enforcing it this year. It's not always best to make statements or send telegrams when in the heat of auger. An angry man can't think straight and generally says something he regrets later. Department heads of the city and of the utilities appreciate the attitude shown by citizens in time of stress during these extremely cold days A line spirit has been demonstrated and every effort is being made to cope with the situations as rapidly as possible. General Johnson in his latest speech defends the supreme court aud says attacks on the august body of judges is like throwing pop bottles at the umpire of a baseball game. Johnson's subject was. "Don't kill the umpire’’ and foilowing that lock-, America will still hold onto the supreme court.

The alleged killer was identified by the widow of the slain publisher us the num wbv fired die gun and yet the jury was swayed by the alibi which Ulumenl'eld tried to establish during his trial. Minm apolis and St. Paul have been the hangout of many ot the worst criminals in the country and the shooting down of respected citizens seems to thrive in the twin cities. An attack is being directed on Governor Olson and newspaper stories do not sound very complimentary to that gentleman. The community joins in extending congratulations to Mr. und Mrs. William Hullenieier ot Preble township, who on Sunday will celebrate their sixtieth wedding anniversary. When looking to the future, sixty years seems a long long time, but to Mr. aud Mrs. Bultemeier they have been busy ones, happily spent together, consumed largely with the responsibility of farm management, rearing a fine family and in every way following the finest traditions known to society. Their trust in the Lord and the imboru piety of their being prompts them to turn to their church where appropriate services will be held marking the observance of their marriage. The community is proud of them. The Gas company employes are making every effort humanly possible to combat the baffling condition existing in a few parts of the city from gas leaks. The extreme I could bus caused the ground to freeze down beyond the ordinary frost grade causing expansion and contraction of the pipes. The seepage of gas follows the course of least resistance, travels through I the crevices and like the song of ' the day. "comes out here.” The men state lite local situation is not serious and the regular force has been augmented with an extra crew of workmen who are endeavoring to locate the source of trouble. Nearly every town in the . country is experiencing the same thing and in a lot of placts cotidi lions are a great deal more serious. Tile ingenuity of man is not enough to fight the elements, once they go on a tampage. o Answers To Test Questions | Below are the answers to the | Test Questions printed on Page Two 1. Atheism 2.

Hauptmann’s hair will be shayed five weeks from now and he will be taken out of cell nine in the state prison death house and electrocuted for the murder of Charles A. Lindbergh.

He walked out of the case admitting he was unalne to break Hauptmann and saying bo believed him guilty. There may have lieen accomplices. in Leibowitz opinion, but there is no question in his mind but that Hauptmann is neck deep in the Lindbergh crime. Red-eyed from loss of sleep and

Fat Ail Gone NeverFeltSo Good Before It was so simple!
