Build, remodel, paint, that's the way to keep things moving and men employed. Republican papers take the time in commenting that Mr. Hoover points the way toward solving of all national problems. Ah, well. If you want to win the $lO prize, get your Centennial soigan written , and sent in before midnight Saturday. The contest closes Saturday, so if you want to coin the slogan to be used in the Centennial advertising, do it now. Another auto tragedy saddens the communitiy. One young lady met instant death and another was seriously injured. In the flash of. a second, life is snuffed out, the suddeness of it ail stunning those left to mourn the loss. I Knox and Borah together receiv-, ed less than 800,000 votes, compared to President Roosevelt's complimentary vote of more than 1,200.000. Republicans miglit think they ' have a chance to carry the state, but the voters will decide it. Senator James Hamilton Lewis, a veteran in the house of Congress, received a great compliment in the Illinois primary election. He did not make a campaign, was opposed by two candidates and received ■ more than a million votes. His record speaks for itself. Work has started on the construction of State road 101, east of Decatur. The highway will link the south part of the state with the north and steps are underway to extend it to the Michigan line ' and then up to the lake region, it | will be one of the important highways in a few years. Staid old England hanged a woman yesterday. She was the ninth woman to go to the gallows in the last 35 years and although King Edward could have granted a reprieve he declined to consider the case. She was the mother of five children and was convicted of poisoning a bed-ridden hospital patient in order to obtain his insurance. The British press took the position that* the death penalty should be inflicted, in view of the seriousness of her crime. One of the regrettable things in politics is that the quiet, sensible policies which make an office-hold-er a good administrator are Joo often not the things capable of arousing an enthusiasm among vot ers generally, Common sense is about the most difficult thing under the sun to ballyhoo effectively. The fanfare Is easier in exploiting qualities more lucking in virtues than possessive of them. — Fort Wayne News-Sentinel. Looked upon by many here as the Fa liter of the Decatur Works."

... a Household Scraphook By Roberta Lee Pie Crust The yolk of one egg added to the water will make a delicious pie crust. The yolk of an egg beaten light, with two to four tablespoons of water, should be used for a douole-crusted pie.
