Have your name on the roll oft honor as a member of the Red Cross in Adams county. Halt the money will remain here. The names will be published from day to day. I If there is a danger in the future 1 it is that we will go too fast and 1 then have to let down again as in ' 1929. If we can go forward surely but not so rapidly as in past eras of prosperity, it. will last longer. Patronize those merchants who ■ advertise in the home paper. 1 That's the best proof that they are ; loyal to the community for the main purpose of the local newspaper is to boost Adams county and its institutions. Your patronage helps make that possible. lames Braddock may not whip Joe Louis but he probably figures that he can afford to take a chance with a guarantee of $300,000 and half of every thing over $500,000, which is reported to be the arrangement. They will put on the gloves the evening of February 22nd. Signs of the limes are shown in the reduction in the number of relief workers now on the forces. In Adams comity a year ago there were 550 while today there are only 120 on the roll. This is getting down close to the number during the best times and by spring, the condition should be normal. John D. Hamilton, Republican national chairman will move his 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 K. R. 1 to Decatur R. R. 2, instruct us to change the paper from route one to route two. W hen changing address to another town, always give present address and new address.
headquarters from Chicago to Washington and start on the old grind of digging up the money to pay the "dead borne," l lie deficit in the treasury. That's usually the tough Job aud especially for the losers, but it has to be done. A hundred or more houses in j Decatur next year would add several hundred to the population of the city for there are many who would move here if they could find homes in which to reside. Besides being a good investment it would mean much to the added income of every business. It's worth incorporating in the 1937 program. Go to church tomorrow aud support your pastor who is striving to awukun a greater spiritual interest in the community. Just now there is a special effort in Decatur along that line and we are sure it will bring results. Remember that a return to normalcy means a return religiously us well as. financially or otherwise. Cliff Townsend as governor of 1 Indiana expects to devote much thought and effort to plans for reducing automobile accidents in Indiana, so look out for some legislation along that line. What he has in mind we do not know but we do know its high time that we do any thing possible to prevent acidents and make the highways safer. Now comes Fortune magazine with the claim that they predicted that President Roosevelt would receive 61.7 per cent of the popular vote and claim the blue ribbon. The joke is on those who were worrying when all these wise guys knew- just how it was coming out. We still believe that Jim Farley was the only fellow in the U. S. A. who actually thought the President would receive 523 votes in the electoral college. Those who are predicting what the political setup will be in 1940 know nothing about it. Guessing is not even a thing that can be' done with any degree of accuracy. There will .be many happenings the next two or three years that will control results in the next national election. in the meantime it is up to the party in power to keep their pledges and to do those things which benefit the greatest number of people. If they do that the 1919 campaign and election will largely take care of themselves. o STAR SIGNALS I -BYOCTAVINE — For persons sio relieve that human destniy is guided by the planet, ’he daily horoscope is outlined by a noted astrologer.
