You can't vote early or often, but you can still vote if you hurry, j A good loser always comes up: smiling and is willing to roll up his sleeves and go to work for the party candidates. Decatur is a hustling good town. I No less a personage than Major j Bowes said so over the radio. Keep ,' up the, build-Decatur spirit and everybody will have a job. The National Safety council has put out a placard, reading, “No safety device has yet been invent ' ed to take the place of the one | just above the ears." It should be, posted in every home. Don't carry personal grudges, against the successful candidates. After all. everyone couldn't win. Politics is not the only place where one meets disappointment. The primaries should be friendly encounters, all differences settled with the close of the polls. The annual spring clean up cam ■ paign is underway. The city trucks | are busily engaged in hauling the tin cans and rubbish from the alleys and adjoining properties and every effort is being made to give the town a thorough job of housecleaning. Cooperation of citizens can be extended by seeing that the rubbish and cans are gathered and placed in containers so it can be hauled away. The primary is over. The successful candidates become the nominees of their party and regardless of the personal preference you might have had in the primary, those nominated are entitled to your vote next November. The primary is open to all who qualify and the campaign becomes largely one of personalities, each candidate carrying his or her plea to the voters. It should be waged in earnest. but after the votes are counted the unsuccessful candidates, their supporters and friends should unite under the banner of the winner and vote the party ticket next fall. Democrats can lead their party to a glorious victory if grudges are not held against this and that candidate and ail support the ticket, which under, the primary law and rules they agreed to do. Although the Reverend G. S. Lozier is assured of a hearty welcome to Decatur, the hundreds of friends of Reverend M. W. Sundermann. for eight years pastor of First Evangelical church, regret to see him leave. The latter will be succeeded by Reverend Lozier, the assignment being made at the Rochester conference Sunday. Rev. Lozier comes to this city from Indianapolis. where for the past two years he was pastor of the Broadway Evangelical church. He will and Decatur people hospitable, friendly and his congregation one of the moot active and sincere in

| the state. Rev. Suudermauu and ' family take with them the good wishes of their thousands of friends in this community. No doubt they will curry with them for years the feeling thut Decatur is more or less home to them. We hope they always feel that way, come often to see their friends and enjoy huppiuess and success in their new home. Celina and the Evangelical congregation can feel fortunate in having them as citizens and pastor. o Answers To Test Questions Below are the answers to the | Test Questions printed on Page Two 1.
