That’s against the law and has been for a long time, but now signs to call attention to it will give every one due notice and those who violate the order will be subject to arrest Watch out for counterfeit five I and ten dollar bills. It is said a number of these arc now being circulated in this part of the state.' The police have the numbers and such information as you need to | detect them and you may savej yourself money by keeping a lookout. — Spring is here and each day in-. dicates its advancement. Time to! clean up, paint up, fix up and many 1 are doing it. Soon the crops will be on the way and before you realize it. good old summer time will be making you forget the days when much time was spent firing the furnace or keeping the stove red hot. Politics is warm this week with the various candidates and their boosters out soliciting support. The next few days will find them on the job day and night. The primary comes a week from today and will close one of the quietest campaigns held in this county in many years. When we read of people losing control of their car while driving at seventy or eighty miles an hour we think its terrible and most of us decline to sympathize and then we get into cars and do about the same thing. Perhaps each driver ought to make himself a committee of one to quit trying to burn up the road. There can be no good reason for : any one asking that court news' not be published. When that I happens, every one concerned is embarrassed for when matters get to court it must be public property. Please do not ask us to refrain from publishing court items. That's one of the news items that every subscriber has a right to expect. The Daily Democrat believes in being fair to all candidates in a primary, leaving the selection of the ticket to the voters. We accept advertising from all those who doesire to use our columns and appreciate the business and assure them each and all that we will support them in the general election it they win in the primary. We are planning to receive returns at this office on election night. As we have done for many years, we will lease the telephone lines in the county and arrange with the inspector in each precinct Io send in results as soon as possible. We will be glad to give you results by telephone if you call UNO or 1001 any time that night It is a pleasure to serve the people of good old Adatus county.

The loss of life in automobile accidents is so far this year larger than lust, when all previous records for fatulitltes was reached. And this, regardless of the great . effort being made every where to t reduce the list. As long as we have light curs that run up to j eighty or ninety miles an hour, . we will have serious accidents. 1 Either we should favor governors on the cars limiting the speed or 1 we should build one wuy roads, for } after all, regardless of cost, any ) ; thing is cheap which lessens loss > of lite or makes for safety. > - J The week of May 4th will be clean up time in Decatur and Its not a bit too early to get busy so that it may be as successful as those of the past. Ralph Roop is organizing for the occasion and his force will haul away the tin cans, broken bottles and other unsightly rubbish which property owners and tenants gather from yards and alleys. Its awfully ini- , portant that this job as heretofore •be done well. The city will do her part if you do yours. Be ready for the trucks the week of May 4th. j j The Indianapolis Star goes to | | some length to say that when President Roosevelt talks, he I doesn't say any thing. How queer I that the people like that. Perhaps J I its the secret of successful cam-' i paigning. However, the truth is | ■quite the contrary. The president| ■does say things and says them in |understandable language. He hasp a program and is not afraid to tell ; ‘ I the voters what that is. Just now . 1 vide better wages for more people, 1 j comfortable homes and a happier! ■ life. Isn’t that saying something?

This illustration may be a slight bit over done, because “our fellow human beings" may not be quite as crazy as the artist has pictured them in the above. But at least by the way the artist spells out “human beings,” the inference is that he regards a good many drivers and pedestrians as "cock-eyed." If sometimes drivers and pedestrians could see themselves as others see them, many would be in for some great surprises. This would be especially so when drivers do those little things which

Modern Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE Q When two persons sitting be-1 hind one at the theater persist in , talking, has one the right to ask | them stop? A. Yes. but never do so in a haughty manner Try to smile and ask them qtii“tly and pleasantly if they won't please stop. It they resent the request and continue, speak to an usher. Q s it necessary for a girl secretary to sen<j her employer a wedd,ing 4resent? ■ A. Not unless she lias received an invitation to the wedding. Q. When a man is walking with two women along the street, slv.uldnot he walk between them? A. No; he should always take the curb side of the walk. — o Mrs. John Eicher and daughter Ruth from east of Berne visited in Decatur Monday.

It’s a good notion for drivers to look at themselves in the looking glass once in a while to try to figure out Just how they may appear to their fellow men when they drive as though they had the only car registered and no such person as a pedes- . trlan ever existed.

Jkingofegypt TAKEN Bf DEATH ■ - King Fuad I Dies In 15th Year Os His Reign; Son To Succeed (Copyright 1936 by IP.) Cairo. Apr. 28.—<U.P> King Fuad I. ninth sovereign of the present Egyptian dynasty, died today In the 15th year of his reign, at 68 1 years of age. Prince Farouk, his 16-year-old only son, about to leave London for Cairo, automatically succeeded him. to reign under a regency ' headed by Prince Mohammed All. 1 his third cousin. The funeral will be held on Thursday. King Fuad died after a long illness partly due to the great strain of the political situation, with leaders battling always oer relations with Great Britain — the dominant , nationalists demanding absolute independence and asserting that Britain dominated Egypt because, of its vital importance in the Mediterranean, commanding as it does , the approaches to the Suez Canal ' running through it. Death was due to stomatitis, (inflammation of the mouth), complicated by gangrenous tendencies. I Fuad lapsed into coma yesterday after summoning his daughters to his bedside, where Queen Nazli was constantly beside him. Prince Farouk was summoned to Cairo by telephone late last night. He has been living in a great home in the London environs, under close guard, to be educated by a selected staff of tutors and disci- ' plinarians. The king's death came at an in-, opportune moment for Egypt, while rival political factions are struggling for power and unrest is seething as result of alleged Brit-1 i ish domination of the Egyptian ’ ■ government. Cairo and other cities still show j ' signs of reejnt bloody riots in i which troops and police battled' ■ nationalist demonstrators and stu- | dents, killing scores and wounding I hundreds, during anti-British outbreaks. This weighed heavily on King i, Fuad, whose health had been bad' 'since 1934. King Fuad never fully recovered ', from that illness, aggravated by ■. i heart weakness resulting irom an attack of pleurisy the previous I January. His condition became critical last Friday when he suffered a 1 hemorrhage. King Fuad was placed on the i throne in 1917, upon the death of his brother, Hussein Kamil. He was proclaimed king in 1922. He was married twice. His first wife, i. whom he married in 1896, was' Princess Chivekiar. They were di ! | vorced in 1899. There was one i I daughter to this marriage.
