Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, everywhere, at any and all times. Spring is not only in the air but it will officially be here next week.l Hitler's next step will more than likely be towards France and then real trouble may start. Maxie Baer really got mad and Tommy Farr had to take it. The boys may be washed up, but the pay is still good. Roger Babson asserts that the small business man needs financing. That’s been the trouble for two thousand years. shhbsWu.. a iss saawsste More clothes are bought for Easter than at ’ Christmas time. And it's only 33 days until the fashion parade is held. Columbus had a hard job sailing the ocean, but today Americans are grateful that the Atlantic and Pacific separates them from the European and Oriental countries. Years ago a man had to save until he had money enough tobuild a house. Now all he needs is ten per cent of the principal and then go on saving while he lives in the house. These Republican candidates for United States senator are not so much concerned about a program and the opportunity to serve the | people, as they are to win the of--for themselves. Indiana would ! not gain a penny by sending them to congress. The spring sunshine is bringing smiles to the faces of all. We are all tired of winter and are anxious to enjoy the out doors and the re-, taxation which comes when firing the furnace or bringing in the coal ends. It s the time of the year that revives our spirit and makes life enjoyable. Besides offering ample shipping facilities, low power and right rates, nominal taxes, homes, good schools and churches, Decatur has another outstanding asset. It is the cooperation and spirit of harmony which Ute people have given. You can’t build by tearing down and when we all team together, the results must be good. The city administration is planning a couple projects which will give employment to needy boys enrolled in the NY A. Work which they can do will be designed by civil works commissioner Ralph 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.

Roop and the necessary papers are I being made out. The projects have been given semi-official approval, so work call begin as soon as the ; material is received. Indiana pauses today to pay j homage to the memory of Thomas 1 R. Marshall, illustrious sou who I ' served his state as governor and i his Nation as ♦ice-president. It was 84 years ago today that Mr. I ' I Marshall was born in North Man-< ; Chester. Hoosiers will always re-| ' member him fondly and with the I ) . greatest of respect and admiration, i I He was a true American, a states--1 man and lovable character. Dr. William Wirt of Gary, who ; died Friday, was one of the lead-1 ing educators in the country. The j Gary system of teaching, which he installed is known throughout ( the country and now used in many | of the larger cities. He had talent i and ability. He came into nation- , al prominence when he made ; charges against the Roosevelt adI ministration, which however prov-1 ed foundationless when a con i gressional inquiry failed to find cause for alarm. He will be re- ' I membered for his school work and , I study-play plan. Although the unemployment 1 compensation law becomes oper-, ative the first of April, a provision i of the law is that persons must, have earned at least $lO on and after April first, before they re- i ceive benefits. Eligible persons i must have been employed by a j concern which employs at least eight persons and has contributed to the unemployment fund. Bene- j fit payments are limited to 15 weeks out of the year, maximum payments being 315 weekly. The unemployment payments are made to help tide an employe over the ! period when out of work and looking for a new job. It will be the j country's first experience with the unemployment law, although pri-j vate ladusuy used the system I prior to the passing of the federal i and state laws. The meanest crook reported this , year is the chap who goes around | to the old-age pensioners, especially women who have been reccntly widowed, and talks them ; out ot their money. His latest operations seem to have been in the ■ vicinity ot Elkhart, where he ob-1 tained 327 from one woman and $33 from another, both being over j 175 years of age. He claims that' [the recently deceased husband had) | been carrying an insurance policy i which the widow knew nothing and on which some back payments I are due. He gets what money he : can. promising to come back with a cheek for a large sum—and that, naturally, is the last the poor victim ever sees of the crook. He , may turn up in your neighborhood, or some other plausible rascal may I put in his appearance and try to I get the cash. If he is an honest stranger he will be willing to go with you to see your banker, orj your preacher, or some other re-. sponsible person whom you can trust. If he is a scalawag he will - skeedaddle, when you propose this, i —Former’s Guide. o — ——> I i Household Scrapbook By Roberta Lee Measuring Butter Au accurate method of measuring j a half cup of butter is as follows: . Fill the measuring cup with water to the half-cup mark, and then keep putting butter into the water until the cup is filled. You will get the right amount and will lose no butter , by its sticking to the cup. Rusted Locks If the key works jerkily in the lock of the door, dip it in machine i oil and then place it in the lock and j turn the key back and forth several times. It will awn work smoothly. I Tooth Powder An effective tooth powder is common baking soda. Merely place a little ot the powder in the hand, moisten the brush, and dip it in the powder. * TODAY'S COMMON ERROR Never pronounce caffelu — ka-feeii'; say, kaf’-e-in or eeu. ■ ] • ♦

Wisonsin, Union ■vrites this about children on tricycles in the streets. “Children my hasty friend, were here long before you or your automobile were ever thought of. All the antomobiles on earth are not worth the life of one little boy on a tricycle. Any competent garage mechanic can put a car together, however badly it ie smashed, but nobody on earth can put a child together once Its lite has been crushed out. We don't know wliat that child may some day be but we know what you are and it’s unimportant. We could get along without you, but we can't spare a single little boy on this street." We.ll said, Mr. Ikiitor. and congratulations to you for the splendid thought. It's up to us motorists to protect those children who are so full of life and play and fun. Think while you drive. o Gas masks in England are being produced at the rate of 65U.U0U a week, and 20.000.000 are now available for the civilian population in event ot air attacks.
