Let's go over the top with the Centennial Good Will Bond sale, i With open arms everybody wel- 1 comes Miss Spring and asks her smiles of balmy weather and sunshine. — —' Even at that. America would ; rather have floods and political 1 scraps to deal with, than the job of mobilizing troops and getting : ready for another war. An article is printed on the Farm j Page in today's paper, giving in- ’ formation about payment of benefits to sugar beet growers. In all' probability growers will continue I to receive some payment from the federal government a fact which is of much interest in this part oi i the state. Decatur rejoiced, the boys and girls shouted and everybody was happy when news came that the Commodores won their first game in the National Catholic basket-, ball tournament. No matter where j they play, the boys are always in ' the game and display a spirit that i is hard for any other team to conquer. It's pleasant to note the senti-| meat which former residents of j Decatur hold for the old home. town. Judge J. Frank Mann of I Muncie, noticed that his friend, “Duke” Stoops bought a five dollar bond and right off the bat. Judge Mann ordered his. Decatur will be glad to welcome these illustrious sons next August. The matter of tax paying seems I to be advanced this year. The county treasurer’s office has had a rush for the past weeks and more than $15,1700 has already been paid on the tax bill. It proves that people have money this year and that in this county everyone recognizes his obligation to state, coun-' ty. school, township and city. The special session of the legislature has adjourned. It was one ol the most business-like sessions ever held. The members went to work on .the social security and public welfare bills, drafted a hill and adopted it. There was a small degree of publicity on the part of those who wanted to balk the purpose of the session, but in the long run everything was conducted in excellent manner and to the credit of the state. The attention of property owners is called again to the WPA construction program, which furnishes all labor necessary in the building ol new sidewalks. Many walks need repairs and under the program carried on here, they can be constructed at about the half original cost, the property owner paying for the material. If interested get in touch with Wendell Mack-lin-or Ralph Roop, civil works com-! missioner and you'll be “next” on the list.

Indianapolis is getting ready for ; a neck-tie party. Plans to hang a I man convicted of killing an officer ] seems to. be getting as much pub- : licity as the state fair. A gallows i has been rented and will be transported from Illinois to the Marion county jail, a tent will be erected, under which the trap door will be sprung. Justice may demand it. but it does sound out of order in i a country where we boast about : < ivilization. Christian ideals and i sun the murderer. The Red Cross asks SI,OOO from the people of Adams county for , the sufferers and victims in the Pennsylvania and Virginia J areas. The sympathetic heart of the people will respond. No com- < munity knows when disaster will ‘ i strike it and unless we give to ( others we can't expect help should i suffering and devastation befall us. A campaign will be made at once [ for contributions and those who i wish to donate will have the opportunity to do so. The Red Cross is performing great work in the , flooded areas and is the agency ( ' looked to render aid and relieve suffering. The last few days we have listened to discussions and arguments about double parking on Second street, including limiting parking on the street, or restricting it all together. Many of the suggestions

are good and practical. The thought is. that abuse of parking privileges is always up to the person who does it. Everyone who drives a car knows he should not double park on a busy street, but still he docs. An ordinance would make it unlawful and punishable by fine or a jail sentence and still there would be those who would disobey the regulations. You can stop double parking yourself—just don't double park. o Modern Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE Q What is the best way to avoid appearing awkward when introducing two persons? A. A clever person will always draw the two into a smooth, pleasant conservation. Any embarrassment or i wkwardness is always caused when a silent pause is permitted. Q. When a man is walking with a woman who greets a person who is a stranger to him, should he ignore the salutation'? A. No: he should return it by lifting his hat. Q. Is it permissible for a hostess to use her monogram or place cards? A. Yes. o *■ ♦ Household Scrapbook By Roberta Lee ♦ * A Damp Room The dampness can be taken from a room very reauT.y by pla< ing blocks of camphor in all corn [ ers, and on the shelves of the closets, replacing them as thej

BORAH STARTS HIS CAMPAIGN Sen. B o r a h Launches I Campaign For Presidency Thursday Night Youngstown. O. Mur 20.— iU.RI Senator William E. Borah car- , ried bis war on conservative Republican bosses and his campaign for Ute presidency into his enemy's couitTry today. Before 3.000 supporters last night in Stambaugh stadium, form.ally launching his mid-western i campaign for G. O. P. convention votes, he outlined a national policy i calculated in every way to please ! voters of the state that traditionally divides the industrial east and agricultural west. He declared himself against inflation and also deflation, for an [ "adequate" old age pension and I for economy in relief udministra- , tion. for extermination of monopI oly but not for interference with | “independent" business men, and I for "a philosophy of plenty." The [ last point was a dig at the AAA. Rumors that his ca’mpaigu for pledged convention delegates is not a campaign in good faith for the nomination are unfounded, he said. "If I am nominated by any honorable means," he said. “I'm going to accept the nomination.” He referred to reports that his object is to gain control of enough convention votes to make him dieI tator of platform writing and perhaps of naming the actual nominee. but without hope that his 1 unpopularity with some factions of "regular" party workers would permit him to be nominated him■self. He defended his party regularity. too. "It has been said that if 1 am i not elected 1 will bolt the party." Ihe said. “I am the only man runI ning for president who never bolt- ! cd the Republican ticket." With his fist thumping a table, | he assailed plans of the state Republican committee to pledge the Ohio convention delegation to Rob ert A. Taft of CincTlianti. sou of William H. Taft. He planned to stay here all da. conferring with G. O. P. leaders [opposing the reign of Ed D. Schoor, state party chairman and Walter Brown of Toledo, national committeeman. Tomorrow he speaks in Chicago. His address last night dealt most emphatically with “the menacing growth of bureaucracy and monopoly.” "I Jry to be modest about my
