Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, every-I where, at any and all times. I See that you are qualified to vote | in the November election. It’s very I important and it's up to you. The court house is to be improved this summer, windows and doors repainted and otherwise pro-! tected against next winters winds ' and storms, an improvement that is worthy. > Boy Scouts are enjoying their annual jamboree at the HannaNuttman park here and if you slip out there you will appreciate what a fine organization the scouts are and how splendid it is to have a place like this natural park in which they can meet. Someone once defined a pessimist as a man who wears a belt and suspenders. By the same reasoning an optimist would be a man 1 ■who _B&ars neither. That of course ■ -i» silly. One simply has to steer a middle course between being haunted by fears and over-confidence. The Federal Housing Administration has announced that it is ready to start insuring mortgages for construction of farm resideu-, Tes and buildings. Heretofore, the | F. H. A. insured loan applied only I <o city property. The new move | opens a wide field of opportunity. —Anderson Bulletin. Don’t fail to register between' now and October 10th if you are not now qualified. If you have failed to vote the past two years, if your name has been changed by marriage or if you have moved Irom your precinct, you must reregister to vote in November. Do it now and have it done. Don't bother the farmers these days. They are busy between showers getting in their crops and have not time either for foolishness or to talk business, if the harvest is good and prices hold up. they may be in the mood of talking later in ' the year but just now have more important matters to think about. Mail history was written in this county, district and nation the past week, a special effort to interest the people in sending mail by plane resulting in a great success and proving </i much interest. More than 28,000 letters from this territory, northeast Indiana, were handled in Fort Wayne and sent all over the country.

n National Safety Council 1

The Adams county council Ims approved the issuance of $25,000 worth of bonds, the money to be used in buying the easements on three main roads of the county. They include the Geneva-Bluffton road, extension of state highway LOl and the road east from Geneva. After the right-of-ways are secured and the preliminary work is done, the state will take over the roads, improve them and build several bridges. The county will benefit several times over by the investment of this $25,000. The council and the commissioners are to be- commended for the interest they are taking in this important matter. Decatur should have a modern I swimming pool. With the aband-j onment of Green Waters, only the . pool adjacent to the city plant ts , available and there’is some ques-, tion as to whether it can be oper-' ated the entire year. Because of the added electric load, the pool is needed as a cooling tank so the | I water can be used again in the | I boilers. There is some agitation j I for a pool on the old Niblick lot I near the South Ward school house ! land it is probable that the city. I aided by a government grant, will I I start procedure soon towards the ! end that the city can have a new I | pool that will accomodate children | during the day time and adults in i the evening. It would be a splen-1 did improvement and one that is being made in many towns and cities. Garrett'is building a $50,000 pool and other places are providing some place the public can get re- i lief during the warm months. Think i it over. While Dr. Frank, Alf Landon, j Archie Bobbitt and other Republi- . can chieftains are telling the peo-! pie what a terrible depression we • have and how many are out ot I work, the retail stores are filled I I with shoppers. Maybe business ‘ I isn't as good as it was in 1937, but ! how does it compare with 1932?' Any improvement now over six years ago should be credited to I Roosevelt. Half a million peop* jammed the Chicago loop ‘ district the week before Easter in 1 ! what President David Mayer, Jr., .of the State Street Council of Chi-1 cago called "the best Easter week i I since 1929.’ The Chicago merchants I interpreted the Easter business as I ‘ the beginning of an upturn in busi- ! ness. Department store sales in I the Eighth Federal Reserve dist-j •riel in April were 5.6 per cent high- i er than in March. Sales of the J. C. Penney Company in April total- 1 ed $20,370,935. against $20,323,760. in April last year. Through strong- ; thening the financial structure of t the nation, the people’s savings ac- I counts and other assets were not wiped out by a let-down in busi-I ness. The Federal crop insurance 1 wheat program is being launched in Indiana, with A. F. Troyer, of LaFontaine, acting as supervisor, and it is expected that policies will ibe available for the crop to be sown this fall. For many years the grain growers of the West and Northwest have been insuring their wheat against damage by hail, privI ate companies taking the risk. Now, for the first time, a government agency is to write the policies to cover crop failures from all unavoidable causes. The coverage will run as high as 75 per cent of normal yield, it is said, and the premiums will range upward from three-tenths of a bushel per acre, , payments being made either in wheat or cash. The Crop Insurance Corporation is not, strictly speaking, a part of the Triple-A. but it will tie in with the soil conservation program and farmers who ov-er-plant their allotments will be ineligible for insurance. It is too early, of course, to predict howmuch of a practical benefit this insurance plan will bring to our state wheat growers, but it is an effort on the part of the government to afford the farmer some protection against crop failures because of drought or other unavoidable hazards. — Farmer's Guide.
