Breaking the present heat wave is about as hard as getting around the corner to prosperity a few years ago. We bet there is more painting and remodeling going on in Decatur than in any town of its size in the country. if there is something wrong with Congressman Zioncheck. what’s the matter with the people who elected him? During this hot weather we hope you haven’t forgot that today is the last day for paying the second installment of your gross income tax. Have you figured out away to park the thousands of automobiles (luring Centennial eek? If you know of a vacant lot or space for cars, get in touch with the committee. The city swimming pool is one of the most popular places in town. It affords untold pleasure to hundreds of children, the cool water making it easier for them to stand the torrid heat and at the same time benefits their health. One of the features of Centennial week will be Youth Day. A nationally known Boy Scout leader will be in Decatur to conduct a program in the interest of youth—the greatest asset in any good community. it goes without saying that everything is as dry as tinder. A bonfire may lead to a disastrous blaze. A community could be wiped out if a fire started and we all owe it 175 each other to watch and safeguard against the possibility of fire. The spectacular parade will be held Wednesday night of Centennial week. There will be decorative floats, a dozen or more bands end other big features. The Centcumal Queen and her escort will ride on a beautiful float anti the parade will pass on Third street, ending al Adams street. The pageant director will greatly appreciate it if members of the CHANGE OF ADDRESS Subscribers arc 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.

Few lines have to he memorized and ■ those participating in the produc-j tion find rehearsals pleasant and full of fun. The pageant will be the outstanding event of the Cen- t tennial and a well directed cast I will make it all the more impress-: ive and enjoyable. What better advertisement could Indiana have than a man of national prominence of Governor Paul V. McNutt going to various it.i ts of the nation by populate.demand' V and delivering addresses to various organizations and societies. But to the rabid, critical, partisan Republican press, Governor McNutt is neglecting the office of chief executive of Indiana by fulfilling such engagements. It has ’ been so long since Indiana has had a governor capable of the office,; the Republican organs don't know how to take it. Jt the governorship of Indiana has been neglected under Paul V. McNutt, what was it during the administrations of McCray, Jackson, Leslie? Does anyone recall of those three being called into different states as prin-l cipal speakers before meeting of national societies or organizations? —Washington Democrat. o ♦ ♦ STAR SIGNALS —BY— OCTAVI NE For persons who believe that hud man destniy Is guided by the planet,, the daily hr-roscope Is outlined by a noted astrologer.
