A Centennial comes only once I in a hundred years and you will ; never have another opportunity to; celebrate that occasion here after < this year. Let's make it a good' one. It is claimed that citizens of In-i dianapolls spend more for taxes than for food, which is serious any way you take it. That of course ( is a lot of tax and perhaps some' of the folks don't get all the food they need or desire. Landon of Kansas appears to I have the inside track for the Re-' publican nomination for president. ' However, the eastern crowd is not entirely satisfied and they may de-1 cide again m a hotel room to drop; the.plum elsewhere as was done < in 1920 when Mr. Harding was the choice. Spring is near at hand. According to the calendar it will come , around the corner in full bloom i next Saturday. The air is beginning to feel like it and every one seems to be ready for the Johnny-jump-up season. Business too, is showing an inclination to bud owt and the merchant who is alive is getting ready for a rush of business, unexcelled in the past half dozen years. Let yourself out a little in buying Good Will Bonds. It's no easy task for those who are managing the campaign and they deserve yonr generous assistance. Os course, if we are to raise the amount needed to do this job right, it will mean some good sized donations and many smaller ones.

IBe as liberal as you cau. It wilt pay bemuse it is always good to be active and to do these things which help in building a better community. t Those Fort Wayne Tigers may be on the way to u slate title. Every one now admits they have 1 a chance and some believe the I only team in the state which can give them a real work out is Frank- , fort. However, we find it unwise I to predict outcomes of tournaments 1 In advance for there are usually ' unexpected upsets. Fort Wayne should be a strong contender at ' the snper-regional at Muncie this week and then go on to Indianapolis for the semi-finals and finals. The bells and sirens awakened every one to the fact that the big bond sale was on and the splendid Decatur spirit was again manifest in the manner in which salesmen were received and patronized. It's going to be a big event —this celebration in 1936 of the 100 years of 1 history in Adams county and Dei catur —and those who have gone . from here are already planning to , spend the week at home. Every I one will thoroughly enjoy it for | there will be many things to interest each and every one. — When they tell you that the state gross income tax law should ibe repealed, have them tell you I how they will raise the money j needed. The cure may be worse 1 than the disease. Surely you do not favor putting the burden back I on real estate and with increases I due to pensions, unemployment inI surance. good roads and schools, I | we must have money from some , source. There will always be . objections to any tax. Many be- ' lieve that the present law, with I some few exceptions, is the best yet devised The national bowling tournament I . progress at the state fair I grounds in Indianapolis will con-1 tinne some four weeks yet and is . attracting enormous crowds. This ■ sport is again one of the most I l popular. It is recognized as among , I I the healthiest, is a great reducer of weight, keeps the business man in good physical condition and furnishes one of the best opportunities for making new acquaintances. Whether you are an expert at "spares and strikes'’ you will enjoy the thrill of knocking down the ten pins or watching the others do it. Republican members of the Indiana legislature made a constant effort to break down the agreement that only such bills as were necessary to conform to the federal program would be acted upon but they failed to get any where with their maneuvers. They introduced a number of measures, some of which will be important | bills in the regular session, includ- | ing changes in the taxes, but if these had been reported out of committee, the arguments would have continued forty days and the results would have been negligible. It was pure polities and nothing but, so don't let them sell you on any thing else. MASONIC Entered Apprentice degree- Tuesday evening 7:30. 65-21 L ” . Modern Etiquette | By ROBERTA LEE Q.
