Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, everywhere, at any and all times. With the thermometer at 60, the grass turning green, the" rhubarb, and tulips coming up, spring can't' be far behind. The daily Lenten meditations continue to hold their interest and I are widely read in this paper. We , are grateful to the ministers for j the splendid articles and know they serve a wonderful purpose. 1 Don't pile junk in and around 1 your premises and cause unsightly sitots tn the town. No one likes ; io UVJjiext to a junk pile or where | the view is obstructed with tin-: sightly objects. Help keep the neighborhood clean. Tom Mooney still carries on his fight for freedom, his third attempt io receive a favorable decision from the Supreme Court being i /nade this week. He is 55 years old and has been in prison shier (1917. It's doubtful if the higher courts will reverse its former stand. Tornadoes and wind storms struck eastern Illinois and southern Indiana the other day, destroying much property and killing at , least 16 persons. The advent of; spring always is a little rough and ' the country breathes easier after the high winds have spent their force. Pleas Greenlee is being mention ] ed as the chairman of the new fed-1 Ntral coal commission. Events may shape around so that this well known Hoosier will fill the importI 1 ant post and it would not be surprising to his friends to see him Elected to the position. He has a knack of doing things and getting them done. This country is not going to get ] 'messed up in the European scrap.' Guided by President Roosevelt and I Secretary Hull, friendly relations] ■will be Maintained, if possible, and •nothing will be done to bring us into the conflict. Most Americans, although they do not believe in war pf aggression, feel that we should Jteep hands off. e « High school youths who are planning to enter college next fall .should keep in mind that individual effort and specialty pay big 'dividends. Eugar Bergen has an ] income in the top brackets because ot his ability as a ventriloquist, feting, radio commentators, writers, come among the high salaried £roup. If you prepare yourself, you can help map your own career jand get enjoyment out of life. Now Is the time to do it. > » ; The reduction in city light and power rates, affecting every user in the city, is equivalent to declaring a dividend to the stockholders. .The stockholders in this case are ‘the people and the users of electric current. The new 4-cent a kilowatt rate becomes one ot the third lowest in Indiana and will mean a saving of approximately $6 a
I year to those who use 50 kilowatts la month and a corresponding sav- * iug of one cent a kilowatt for those I who use less laun the average. ) e For $2,5U you can Join the Chamber of Commerce and have t , | your dues paid for a year. The I, annual membership campaign, uu- ' tier the direction ot Herman Krueckeberg, opened today, the goal being 30U members. When • J the committee calls on you, join I i this organization, tor it promotes 'lthe good ot the community. An active C. ot C. composed ot the i citizens ot the town, can do much 1 in sponsoring programs and improvements which aid everyone. Rate reductions in the city light and power schedules since 1935 ] mean a saving of approximately $41,000 a year in electric bills to, local users In the past three I years the base rate has been cut i froin 6 cents to 4 cents a kilowatt.' reducing the average monthly bill ] j for residences frdm $3 to $2. The i 1 Decatur rate is one of the lowest I I in the state and is made possible i ■ through the earnings of the city I plant, as a result ot economies in , ! operation and efficient manage- ■ me nt. The annual Chamber of Com- j merci- meeting will be held Thurs- , day night, March 31. at the K. ot I i I’, home. The directors -have ar- 1 | ranged an interesting program, in . i clmfing a banquet, which will be . | presided over by John L. DeVoss. ] I the new president. Ralph Haines. lof Chicago, advertising director I lor the International Harvester I company, will be the principle ' ! speaker. It is a meeting at which I you'll want to be present, so get I your ticket ami take part iu local ; activities. President Roosevelt iu deliver- j ing a nation wide talk on the 19th anniversary of the founding of the I American Legion, remarked. “It j I has survived all the changes and I vicissitudes since the dose of the war, because Us purposes-eea. con structive. The organization lias acquired experience and discipline which fit it admirably for service in the present rather difficult times.'' Every community appreciates this Legion leadership. The , members are not only interested in their fraternal circles, but assist in community and civic undertakings which result in the good of all. ■S—- ■ uni in - Next time you are out for a pleasure ride in your car take that | chip off your shoulder and see what a dividend it will pay. If you are one of those persons to whom driving is no longer a pleasure this ; hint should prove beneficial. Take your sense of humor with you on i your trip. Promise yourself that you will not let little things upset I you. If someone attempts to steal the right of way from you let him | have it. Do not shout at him; i smile instead. Be indulgent. A j safe journey and a surprisingly pleasant one will be your reward. An added return from your investment will be the satisfaction of counting yourself among the nation's safe drivers, those who no longer believe it smart to speed.
