Representative SCHEERER & CO. 15 Lexington Avenue, New York 35 East Wacker Drive, Chicago Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dailies. Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, everywhere, at any and all times. We believe it’s a sure thing to bet that we don't have another snow storm this spring. A prominent figure from the Marion county political stage passed with the death of George C. Coffin, widely known in Republican political circles. He served as county sheriff, chief of police and county clerk and was recognized as one of the most able political strategists in the state. An interesting meeting is being planned by the Rotary club this week, when 50 well known farmers of the county will be the club's guests Thursday evening. Thomas R. Johnson, publicity director of Purdue University and versed in the farm program in Indiana, will be the principal speaker. It promises to be one of the most interesting meetings of the year. Riclpyd Whitney, former president of the New York Stock Exchange and scion of one of the wealthy and socially prominent families of the east, must serve a five-to-ten-year prison sentence for embezzlement. He's no doubt repented a good many times and has suffered untold agony for his thoughtless act. Better not be at the top if you have to steal to keep going. The federal government is going to attack the "recession'’ oi whatever it is that has brought a lull in business and congress is considering various plans. Public funds may be used in promoting public work and employment, although there seems to be a division of thought on that score. Whatever is done will be instituted with the thought of he'ping the country, but as usual, man-made plans are not always perfect. “Don’t Laugh; It’s Paid For.” This was what we read the other day painted on the back of a touring car which went through town —about a 1927 model. The occupant of the vehicle was a young man who looked like he might be on his way back to college after a spring vacation. Really we believe this fellow was bragging because so few of us could paint a similar wording on the back of our cars and tell the truth.—Van Wert Times. This is Holy Week and the Christian world is commemorating the passion and suffering of the Savior who atoned for our sins with His death on the cross. A heart in tune wih the significance of the great tragedy which took place on Mt. Calvary more than 1900 years ago will lay aside worldly ill-feeling and meditate on the supreme sacrifice made by Jesus Christ for the redemption of mankind. We should pause and take advantage of the meaning of the lessons of Holy Week. The election over in Austria, although almost unanimous in its

decision favoring German annexation, Is a sham more or less. The privileges of casting a ballot as is done in this country are not known either in Germany or Austria. The people don't have much t choice in exercising free franchise and the few who voted "no" on the 1 question will be considered enemies t of the government. The fear of reprisals no doubt influenced the millions to vote “yes" on Hitler's M ) annexing of the country. ) .- J Nationwide attention is given j the Northwest Territory anniverj sary, being celebrated this year in t Ohio. Michigan. Illinois. Kentucky and Indiana. A band of hardy pioneers of the modern type, sailed down the Ohio river from Pittsburgh to Marietta, Ohio, last week, formally opening the ceremonies which will be held throughout the year in observance of the 150th anniversary of the founding of the territory. They sailed in a “Union Galley' and were met along the entire route by friendly emissaries ! and scenes typical of the pioneer days were depicted. The Northi west Territory, of which this com- • munity is a part, comprises one of the most important stretches of land in the United States. Its ’ importance today is even greater than during the days of Anthony Wayne and George Rogers Clark. CLARK J. LUTZ: In paying tribute to Clark J. Lutz, noted lawyer, sincere churchman and esteemed citizen, naturally recognition must be given to his brilliant and successful career, his fulfillment of the duties expected of an outstanding and worthy citizen. But. it would be unfair to Mr. Lutz to eulogize his life, merely ■ from the viewpoint of being a most successful and able lawyer. I What Mr. Lutz excelled in was a friendly spirit toward mankind, his . sympathy for the other fellow. Clark Lutz had an affable disposition, a sereness which endear- • ed AlflKfliAli «ho kuew him. He ■ was always willing to accomodate ■ someone and to be of service w hen called upon. We remember numerous occassions when civic or public events were being arranged and when the selection of a chairman or toastmaster was to be made, there loomed the pleasing and jovial personality of Mr. Lutz. ' He had a heart, as big as the body of which it was a part. He had charity and sympathy and a kind word when benevolence was needed. Mr. Lutz was generous in his attitude toward others and 1 for that reason he had untold legions of friends. He seemed to understand the other fellow and his problem and was like a sympathetic father in his deliberations. Mr. Lutz earned his place in life : i and the position he held in his community. He started work as a young boy, knowing that honesty and loyaly were the first steps in noble character. He had both and all the other attributes which make a Christian gentleman and good citizen. People did not envy the success which came to Mr. Lutz as a result of diligent study and work. He shared his success with others, because of the mutal feeling that seemed to exist between him and the person to whom he was talking. He left this worldly stage with a smile, knowing that somewhere on high he would again feel at home with friends. He lived a lite of good and was always ready to give an account before the s Great Judge when summoned so to do. He not only knew the word of the Master, but followed it. i — Modern Etiquette I By ROBERTA LEE ’ Q.
