Not only in Harlem and other similar neighborhoods, but through out the country, Joe Louis, took John L. off the front page. Dan Cupid is doing a good job in Adams county this month. More than 35 marriage licenses have al-; ready been issued here, which mean more homes and good citizens. One thing the treasury invest!-; gation is doing is exposing the many different ways used to beat the income tax law. The whole | country will know the tricks and then the smart boys will have to ■ think up something else. Before a person or firm can engage in the collection agency business, a license must be obtained from the secretary of state and a bond filed. It has been the experience of many persons to be hood-, winked by a collection agency and the Indiana law is a safeguard against dishonest operators. The law also carries a fine and imprisonment for violation and the right of wronged persons to col- j lect on the bond, which must be filed with the county clerk. It s a good law. The newly remodeled and en larged Church of God will be appropriately dedicated uext Sunday afternoon, with Rev. Glen R. ! Marshall, pastor, in charge of the I program. Attendance at Sunday School and the regular services' necessitated the building of the addition. It is inspiring to live in a community where the thoughts of the people are not all centered in worldly things, but are directed along a spiritual line. The ad dition to the local church is evi dence of the congregation’s sincerity and religious endeavor. An inspector of the State High way Commission will be sent, to 1 Decatur to view the traffic and parking problem and to make suggestions about routing of the state roads through the city. The sug gestions offered by the local Citi ' zens Traffic Committee will be checked and a report as the state I inspector sees the situation will be forwarded to the commission. In the meantime State Traffic 1

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

I Director Myers has requested that local action in adopting an ordin--1 ance regulating parking be with- ‘ held until their investigation is completed. The Chamber of Commerce is ; making Its annual campaign for I funds to pay prizes in the livestock and agricultural show duri Ing the street fair and to carry out ! other worthy community objectives during the year. Contributions arc needed and a budget of approximately >1,500 has been prepared. No community can grow and do things unless it has a live Chamber of Commerce and a civic or- ! ganization cannot function andi help unless it has money to spon-1 | sor programs and improvements | I which come under its direction. 1 [ Give to the Chamber of Commerce I and you’ll receive benefits in rej turn. Under the tax limitation law | municipalities will be unable to ; make additional appropriations next year, except for real emerg- 1 encies, such as fires, floods and disasters which might visit a com munity. If a fund is overdrawn, as is the custom now, an additional appropriation can be made during the year to make up the short-' age. The new law prohibits this I practice. The making up of the budgets for 1938 will be a more , difficult job and it is likely that the appropriations will be higher ( in order to prevent a deficit in the 1 various funds and departments.' Taxing officials should acquaint ! themselves with the provisions of the limitation law. We’re not very crazy about seeing a bloody fight, but the description of the Louis-Braddock bout over the radio sounded like areal 1 one. It was better than seeing it. Braddock, who came up from the WPA ranks, made a valiant effort | to stand up under the crushing blows of the Detroit brown bomb- , er, going down in the eighth round. Financially the loser was the win- i tier of the fight, which repays him to some extent and will make life [ brighter after his wounds heal. Joe Louis will meet Schmeling at a later date and promoters are try-' ing to stage the big fight in London. Joe can wear the crown of world champion for a while and unless he goes haywire in the meantime will give a good account of himself against the German walloper. State wide operation of the new; I accident reporting law will begin July 1. The accident reporting law is one of the stringent safety laws enacted by the 1937 legislature as a part of Governor Townsends safety program. State police ' have received instruction on the 1 law, and information and forms ■ will be sent to local police departments. Two forms will be sent out a green one for operators to fill out and white for law enforcement officers. Reporting Hoosiers will describe the accident on simple diagrams supplied to them. Such statements as condition of driver and pedestrian, traffic control,weather, light, condition of vehicle, roadway character, type and j I condition of surface, road width ■ , and lanes will be explained on the . form. The law provides that the driver of every motor vehicle involved in an accident resulting in , injury to or death of any persons, or total property damage of $25 or more shall within 24 hours for- 1 ward a written report to the' Safety Department. o - Ohio Tomatoes Higher Toledo. — (U.R) —More than 5,000 i Ohio farmers will benefit by a new I I contract with packing firms which increases the price of tomatoes $1 ‘ per ton to growers. 0 Horse Stages Comeback j Corvallis, Ore. (U.R) — Urgent i needs of soil rehabilitation is | bringing the horse back into the ’ limelight as a powerful factor in the rebuilding program. Among most recent buyers is Oregon State College at Corvallis which has acquired two purebred PerchI eron mares of distinguished 1 breeding.
