A catchy lour or five word line may win you a ten dollar prixe and the honor of coining the Centennial slogan. President l<6osevelt received double the amount of votes over Borah in the Wisconsin primaries. It appears the state will go Democratic. Business houses and offices will be closed from twelve to three o’clock tomorrow afternoon in observance of Good Friday. It speaks well for a community to commemorate the three hours that Christ, the Savior, suffered and died on the Cross. —z. How about it? Did you have a new lining put in the old coat or are you among those who just marched up tp the counter and picked out the new outfit? Anyway, it’s Easter, a day of great religious significance and a joyous time of the year, so enjoy it to the fullest. Those who haven't purchased or signed pledges for Centennial Good Will bonds are urged to do so at once. When the campaign started only 2,000 bonds were ordered and they have been going so fast that the committee has only a small supply on hand. The response has been so wonderful, that the committee wishes to close the campaign and start working on other plans for the big birthday party. Do your share for your home town. Get your bonds and help plan the celebration. The county commissioners have ordered a new cement sidewalk on the north side of the court house, an improvement that is needed and one that will enhance the beauty of the public square. The walk Wil! be reduced one foot in width so it will not obstruct the growth of shrubbery along the line, but' will be extended to the curb line.' The proposal to build a six foot walk so the street could be widened was voted down, because of additional costs and the fact that the board members did not wish to change the present boundary lines. As smart as people are credited with being these days, it seems like a waste of breath or space to repeat that automobiles should not be parked in front of a fire hyulant. Nine hundred and ninety-nine cases out of a thousand, no trouble would result, but the one time might be the means of great property damage ami loss of life. When cars are parked in front of fire plugs, it is impossible for firemen to make connections. Parking curs in front of hydrants is in violation of a state law and city ordinance and no matter where you drive, the same law holds. There is only one answer. Violators will

be arrested, the penalty being a i tine and jail sentence. Every six-year-old child knows that ears i should not be parked within 10 1 feet of a tire hydrant. Do it at your own risk. -SLATES" AT PRIMARY ELECTIONS: The Indiana voters should be' grateful to the legislators who, at' the reglaur session a year ago, en-1 acted a law to abate the “slate" j nuisance. The campaign we are i about to enter should be free from the lists of various kinds suppose: ed to be for the guidance "of the voter and really to serve the interest of the slate-maker. Anyone who puts out a "slate" in violation of the new law shall be subject to a fine of not more than 3100 "to which may be added imprisonment for a period of not to exceed thirty days." Any "slate" that is printed or j published must be with the authority and over the signatures of thej officers of organizations of legal i voters. If the “slate" is not backed by an organization it must be over the signaures of at least ten , I legal voters in the political unit. I ' The written consent of the candi--1 dates thus indorsed must be obtained and filed with the clerk of the court at least five days before such “slate" is printed or distributed. That provision, of course, would put an end to the flood of eleventh-hour lists with which the voters have been inundated in past elections. The law may be abused. There ■ may be anonymous lists distribqt-1 ted without the legal requirement 1 , that they be filed with the clerk j at least five days. There is no law that can prevent the lawless from ignoring its provisions, but the existence of the statute will brand as fakes any “slates ’ thati i may be put out in the closing days . ' of the primary or without the prop-| er compliance with the statute. I There is nothing in the law to pre-'
