( — t It's about time for the candidat- t es to turn on full speed and keep J going until they cross the line. . Select candidates in the primary based on their ability to do the job j they seek. That's smart business. t Don't be one of those who plays r politics while the country drifts in-; to a worse slump. President Roose- , velt is not idle. He is trying his i best to better conditions for every ( one and he deserves support in his ( undertakings. I It’s spring and there are many things to be done. It's time to fix up the house, the yard, the farm, the store, the shop and the boys and girls in anticipation of the summer season. Look at the goods in the Decatur stores. _______ l Buy an automobile, buy a refriegrator, buy new porch and yard 1 furniture, buy what you need to 1 be happy. There is no reason why 1 you should not for you can get 1 more for your money right now . 1 than at any time in several years. 1 1 S Your neighbor s dog may be a I nuisance to you but think what a pleasure he is for she neighbor's boy or girl. Perhaps the damage he does is not as serious as you think. Any way the epidemic of poisoning is surely not the right program. Floyd I. McMurray, state superintendent of public Instructions the past four years, has announced he will again be a candidate in the coming Democratic state convention. He has many friends in this county who wish him well. He has always made an excellent i showing in vote getting, when a I candidate. The young men who found themselves in difficulties with the law this week should convert the affair into a good lesson, rather than feel it is the end of things. Many successful men have made missteps in their younger days and still made good. Do only those things hereafter that will reestablish confidence and you will be surprised how gladly everyone will assist. I see by the papers that Mr. Garner denies any hostility toward the President, and proclaims himself as his friend. So he describes the Chief Executive of the United » States as a "No. 1 Lobbyist," and assures the country that “We are threatened with dictatorship if Mr. Roosevelt’s plans for centralized power are not checked. We are threatened with dictatorship the moment any mau gets control of all departments, as Preside Roosevelt so plainly aims to do.”

Adams county wfll cooperate with the state highway commission. preparing farm to market roads so they can be taken over and maintained by the state after a year. To do this of course we must purchase at a reasonable and equitable price, the necessary easements. It is estimated this will require about $25,600 but it will save us hundreds of thousands of dollars over a period of years for the state will build a number of bridges and maintain and im- 1 prove the highways. By all means we should take advantage ot this I excellent opportunity to progress. | More than five years have elap- J sed since Franklin Roosevelt came to the White House. For nearly as long the Liberty League, and its i political heir to the hate-Roosevelt policies, have been warning this country that it was the purpose of the President to arrogate all pow- j er to himself; to junk every Atneri- j can institution and rule us with a' rod of iron. Two years ago about j twenty-eight million people said I "yeah?' at the polls to this barrage. Next November they will say the same thing, and when a new : Democratic Congress assembles the old reactionary war-cry will again be lifted and the nation will, again be told of the terrible threat | of totalitarianism that hangs over i the national head. The President does not appear to have made | much progress toward dictatorship in five years. It is beginning to look like the President has quite a large number of "fair weather friends" in. the Congress. We refer to those. members of the House and the Senate who "go with the wind" where straw votes are concerned, and - who are motivated by the thought of what action will add the most i to their ballot building back in the home provinces. When the President is “riding high” they want to ride with him, but when the going is rough they begin to look around for another band-wagon, not withstanding the fact that many of them rode into office on the Roosevelt popularity landslide. One ot' the strangest of species is the “fair-weather-friend" of politics a type of humanity who has yet to learn the joyous tliriii of true loyalty—of choosing his colors and marching loyally behind them all the way. win lose or draw. —Bloomington Star. There are in Washington 125 independent bureaus and agencies which have come into being in the process of government. Many of them have served their usefulness, but they continue, to be employes drawing salaries for Coing little if anything. For more than a quarter of a century Presidents, in the interest of efficiency, have sought to reorganize the executive branch of the government. President Taft attempted the task, but failed. President Wilson achieved some minor changes. President Hoover obtained power for broad reorganI ization, but Congress refused to 1 approve his orders regrouping 58 agencies. Like other Presidents, Roosevelt saw the need to abolish overlapping bureaus and tighten up the whole loosely organized structure of government. Immediately his enemies set up the old cry of'dictatorship.” The Old Order is against any change. o | Modern Etiquette By ROBERTA LEE « 4 Q. When talking with an acquaintance should a woman refer to her husband as "Mr. Wilson”? A. No; it. is better to say “my husband,” even when talking with a stranger, lif conversing with a friend, she should say “Charles.' "Mr. Wilson” can be reserved for the servants and employees. Q. Is it all right to use the fingers when eating fried chicken? A. Yes, when at home, or among a few intimate, but the | formal way is to use the knife ami itortk. Q. How far in advance of the ; stated hour should guests arrive foi a home wedding? A. About fifteen minutes befort the stated hour.

There is a rich prize at stake since Egypt is wealthy in undeveloped natural resources and holds a commanding position in respect to the Mediterranean and Suez canal. Only the future can reveal the outcome.
