Take your trip or rest at the lake during the next six weeks and then come back home for the big Centennial celebration. Don't use the city streets for a speedway. Police are patroling the streets and those who exceed the speed limit are apprehended and ordered to appear in court. It's safer and cheaper to drive within the limit. Work is progressing rapidly on the installation of the "White way" lights on Monroe street. The laying of the cable was completed today and the next step will be the building of the foundations for the posts. The lights will add to the attractiveness of the street, benefit the public and serve as another good advertisement for a well lighted town. It appears from newspaper stories that the Indiana Republicans are holding a second state convention in Cleveland, the idea being to try to heal sores from the state chairman rumpus. What they lack is a leader. Former Senator Watson of the old school, is taking a hand and Chairman Morgan is having a hard time to impress on the delegation that he is the boss. The home-coming will be one of the real features of Centennial week. Former residents who haven't visited Decatur in years will be invited back and many will be here. If you have relatives or friends who formerly lived here, send their name and address to Mrs. R. D. Myers, so invitations can be mailed. The list is growing and the committee wishes to have every old Decaturite invited to the big party. Col. Green, son of the famous and rich Hetty Green is dead. Like most wealthy children, he wasn't able to hold unto the vast fortune willed to him. He gave his wife $15,000 in bonds and $500,000 for a wedding present, lived a life of ease and at death was only 67 years of age. However he possessed some of the wisdom of his mother and died still worth millions. He never was accused of throwing himself or his money a why. CHANGE OF ADDRESS Subscribers are requested to give old and new address when ordering paper changed from one address to another. For example: If you change your address from Decatur R. R. 1 to Decatur R. R. 2, instruct us to change the paper from route one to route two. When changing Address to another town, always give present address and new address.
More tbuu 4,000 General Electric v factory employes, including those in this city, will enjoy vacations with pay this summer. At the Decatur plant, the vacation period i. will begin the first of August, pert milting the factory to shut down during Centennial week and givt ing everyone an opportunity to at- . tend the celebration. As times im--1 prove, iiluhstry quickly restores advantages to employers and the G. ! E. company is one of the leaders J in the movement. > The $2,000,000 George Rogers' ’ Clark Memorial which will be dedij cated in Vincennes, Sunday, by President Roosevelt, is the culmin- 1 ation of nearly a decade of untiring and ceaseless work by members of the federal and state Clark commissions and a number of interested individuals. The first movement toward construction of ’ a memorial was in February, 1925, when State Senator D. Frank Culbertson of Vincennes suggested , that the Indiana Historical So- | ciety aid in a movement to erect I i a statue to George Rogers Clark near the southeast end of the new bridge over the Wabash river, at Vincennes, where, Clarks men took Fort Sackvine from the British in 1779. Congress provided sl,- 1 I 791,000 for the shrine aud Indiana ' with a I’/s mill tax levy over a two year period, contributed $537,000 to the fund. Besides Clark. Francis Vigo and Father Pierre Gibault are memorialized in the building of the largest historical memorial in the middle west. o ♦ STAR SIGNALS —BY— OCTAVINE For persons who believe that human destniy is guided by the planet, the daily horoscope is outlined hy a noted astrologer.

Household Scrapbook By Roberta Lee Perspiring Feet One of the best remedies for perspiring feet is to powder the stockings with one part of chlorinated lime, one part prepared chalk, and one part of powdered starch. Also bathe the feet daily in cold water. Boiling Rice Add a little lemon to the water in which rice is boiled. It will not only whiten the rice, but will help to keep the grains separated. Phonograph Record Don’t throw away the broken phonograph record. It makes an excellent smoother for the iron. o— HERBERT HOOVER’S (CONTINUED FR0..1 PAGE ONE) finally were sent home like unruly children by a motion to adjourn which was put and carried almost by ruse.

(esteem which drenched the forinier president. It is just less than four years ago in this same hall I that President Hoover appeared on ’ this platform en route to a most awful licking. He and most of his audience knew what was coming, although not realizing how little ■ faith the people had left in his adi ministration. 1 Worried, unhappy and welling 1 already with the tears that flowed - on the next inauguration day, Hoover stood in tragic solitude. The bitterness of 1932 was long .in leaving Hoover but it may be 1 goue now. I saw him through four dark years across his squarish desk on White House conference days i and I watched him out of Wash- ■ ington that March 4 when the Roosevelts arrived. -He was a beat en man. But somehow he salvaged something and last night when the crowds were yelling the pains of 1932 must have finally departed ■ and the end seemed good. It was i his political end because in 24 hours or so a young man in Kansas will supplant him as titular : leader of the Republican party. I “What are you going to do
■ next?” 1 asked him last night, i; “Im going fishing,” he said. II It was obvious there was no i place he would rather go — and t ! that includes the White House. i o • A swimming pool has been open- ‘ ed in Yellowstone National Park • that is supplied with fresh warm water every 12 minutes by an i erupting geyser.
