Melvin Purvis is finding out that it’s easier to get his man thau the woman he loves. Its like Mark Twain said. “There's a lot of talk about the weather but no one does anything about it.” Former Governor Paul McNutt is now installed as hign commis sioner to the Philippines and is on the job in Manila. His career will be watched with interest. When hard times come in Buda pest, they eat horse meat—2,2oo,000 pounds last year. But nobody has found away to make used cars edible. — Fort Worth StarTelegram. We hope that southern Indiana will be spared the ravages of another serious flood. Although the rivers are swollen, there is no im mediate danger and a day or two of sunshine will change the whole scene. Better stay away from Boyden, lowa. A fourth of the town's popu la tion is ill with smallpox and schools have been closed. The . epidemic spread in a few days and the battle is on to defeat the dread disease. President Roose v e 11 advises against gambling on the sto< k market. He cautions government employes not to engage in speculations and gives good advise to most everyone who wishes to folI I low it. There is always a drop following high prices and the small fellow hasn't business speculating. Property owners should repair their sidewalks this year. The , cost is small and half of the cost can be eliminated through the WPA work program. It should be remembered Mi at property owners can be sued for permitting walks ' to become hazardous to traffic, so 1 II it's cheaper and safer to repair , them. : | Pleas Greenlee will go to Wash- 1 ington to serve as a member of the Federal Coal Commission, a regulating body for the bituminous industry, created under the new Guffey law. It's an Important post and Pleas will be one of seven commission members to direct and guide the destiny of this vast enterprise. Remodeling a newspaper office 1 and at the same time continue getting out a paper every day is not one. but two jobs. For several weeks the remodeling program has been going on at the Daily Democrat, much of the work being done at night. It's worse than housecleaning and the irony of it is we can't get up and leave. We can’t see where, a Townsend club is going to get anyone anything. State and federal governineut » already paying pensions to the aged and under tho social
'security act, industry is providing I for a pension for employes. Noj I membership is required to make either pension available, providing' 1 they come under provisions. Indiana was to have! as its guest Postmaster General James Farley this week. Mr. Farley dedicated the new Federal* building at Gary and visited other! Indians? cities, including tadi-anap-olls, where tonight he will be guest of honor at a banquet. The postal service under Mr Farley is one of the best in the history of the nation. He knows what is go- ■ ing on. Fifteen minute parking on Seci ond street will not solve the prob-! I lem unless the public cooperates. Along with such regulations there will have to be a penalty for double parking on the street and that will catch a good many who now cause congestion by driving lup their cars and letting them' stand for minutes at a time. Traffic court will bo one of the busiest places in the city. It appears that Judge Slack and other members of the Marion county welfare board are playing a little politics in resigning their jobs. They put out a letter, attempting to discredit the state wel- i fare administration and opposing the law which places the welfare agencies under state control. It's a case probably of the Marion county welfare not getting what they want, turning around and resigning in a huff. George Ball of Muncie, alwayskeen and alert, who gained national prominence with th.- aequir- ’ ing of the Van Sweringen system has disposed of the railroad hold- ■ ing company interests and has I , donated the proceed' to the Ball ' Foundation. It is itimated the profits will be a’ id eight to ten! million dollars which will give the foundation a wonderful workingcapital and make it one of the largest endowments in the country.; * ' | Modern Etiquette —BY— By ROBERTA LEE Q. What expenses of a wedding* should be borne ‘by the bridegroom? A. The bridegroom provides a wedding gift for the bride, gifts to his beet man anj each of the ushers . together with their ties, gloves, and boutonniers, the clergyman's fee, and of course the expense of the 11 honeymoon trip. Q. When a question in general company has been addressed to one - person, is it ever permissible for! another to answer it? A. Never. It is very ill-bred to do so. Q. Shouldn't a hostess be careful to avoid straining herself to enter- ', tain her guests’ A. Yes. for this makes the guests feel as if they were a burden. — o Household Scrapbook By Roberta Lee *—■—■—7- 4j Child Training 1 he wise mother will impress upon the children that each meal is goin to be served exactly at a certain hour, whether they are present or not. The average child will take advantage of an indulgent mother, who is in the habit of waiting for his arrival before serving the meal Washing Woolens The water in which woolens are rinsed should be exactly the same temperature as the water in which thy are washed, to keep them nice and soft. Pastry Hint Why not use orange or pineapple juice instead of ice water, when making the next pastry? The juice I should of course be chilled before using. 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, i
