Several new business ventures are underway in the city, attesting to the growth and better business ; conditions enjoyed here. Indiana Democrats will be proud to present Governor Paul V. McNutt to the Democrats of the Nation as a candidate for Presi- ( dent in 1940. The Hoosier executive will be in the picture. Because a newsboy had a cheery smile when he greeted customers,: a Sacramento man bequeathed his estate of $12,000 to the boy who I delivered his paper. It pays to smile and to keep a sunny disposition. While the WPA work relief rolls are being reduced. Administrator Harry Hopkins gives the assurance that no needy person will suffer during the winter months. Employment will be provided where necessary. Mrs. Simpson might have saved herself a lot of grief if she had waited until after King Edward was coronated to file her divorce. I As a married woman the romance would not have come to light until the king got his robes and scepter. - If lighted highways will reduce' the death toll the people will more' than likely demand such service.! But many of the accidents occur: during the daytime in broad daylight. Most of the trouble comes through excessive speed and not slowing down at curves. If you like the thrill which conies with the Christmas lights, urive

I past the City plant building on Third street. Several hundred col- : ored lights have been placed on the trellace work and the ornamental evergreens. Those who have the picture are enthusiastic in their praise for it. As the New Year approaches, give your thought to community needs and building projects. No town can afford to sit still and there is so much activity around here that only those who pull away from responsibility will find a lack of endeavors. A discussion of these problems and needs will do much in solving them and obtaining the improvements. Secretary of Agriculture Wallace has announced the 1937 soil conservation program, having in mind the desire to help the farmer. They will be paid benefits under the plan and an effort made to prevent ruinous prices through over production. The plan will be explained to the farmers in every community and each unit will carry on its own work. An economist of the Department of Agriculture predicts that the* population of the United States will reach a peak by 1945 to 1950, and that from there on it will be a matter of caring more for the aged than the children. Statistics show that the number of children in school this year is less than a year ago. The government official says the number of women of child- j bearing age is decreasing and it is viewed that the problem for the coming generation will be in providing social security for the aged, rather than providing school buildings for the youth of the country, as has been the case for 50 years. Just so we don't decay and blow away. The beautiful new Zion Lutheran church in this city will be dedicated to the service of the Lord with appropriate services Sunday. Beginning at 9:30 o'clock, a procession from the school building to the church will take place and doors of the new edifice will be opened to the congregation. The community rejoices in observing the all important event. The imposing structure is a mark of proI gress in the city and an indelible • expression of the sincerity and spiritual endeavor of the congreI gation. Rev. Paul Schultz, pastor | for the past ten years, with the coI operation of the members of his flock and the able building committee, have done well in demonstrating their religious zeal and high ’ sense of civic pride in bringing about the more commodious structure, which as the pastor stated is “dedicated to the Triune God.” o — * Household Scrapbook | By Roberta Lee The Christmas Tree Place the Christmas tree in a bucket or tub of dirt, keep the earth j moist, and it will prevent the tree from shedding. The container can be decorated with red and green ' paper. Egg Yolks When the yolks of eggs are not ’ wanted for immediate use, place them in cold water and keep in a | dark, cool place, and they can be - kept fresh for several days.
