Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, everywhere, at any and all times. Hope you drove carefully. Signal when you turn a city corner. It's a favor you owe the pedestrian. Remember the state police may drop tn any time to check on your . car and your driving. It pays to be right and fair and courteous. The list of casualties over the country as a result of the heavy holiday traffic should make every • - one reaffirm his decision to drive T with care. 3 The girls and boys of high 3- school have a real baud and when _ they merge as they did yesterday, form a musical organization hard to heat any where. Times are better, tell it to your neighbor and shout it yourself. We never get any where complaining. It's time to come out ot the repression and much of it depends upon tho condition of mind. We are up to the month of June, the season of sunshine and summer and brides and graduates and vacation periods. If the weather settles we will have the opportunity to enjoy one ot the most delightful seasons of the year. _ • Now that every one has enjoyed a three days vacation, let's get busy and make up for it by doing business. The store that adver- , tises this week will get the adI vantage of the many demands for summer goods. Observation of the Centennial of . .Zion Lutheran church at Friedheim, Sunday, was impressive and congratulations are in order to Rev. Werniug. the pastor, and to all the congregation that assisted him. For over a hundred years this church has lived, prospered and had a great influence on the . .entire territory surrounding Freid"“Tietai. The event was thoroughly enjoyed and the messages from Rev. LJchstinn and Dr. Behnken were inspiring. ‘ tu — The speedway races that annualw ly aUract a crowd of from 150,000 * to-«W5.000 people is again history — and the thousands have had their * thrills. It's the most sensational sport event in the entire world and •» the visitors come from every <• ■.. ■ £ EXPECT i • ? the UNEXPECTED at i INTERSECTIONS National Safety Council

where. It'* a roaring. Hpeediug grid with the heavy footed drivers forcing their car* hi grim anticipation of the pot of gold while death and injuries lurks at each turn. More than three mouths after the disappearance of little Peter Levine of New Rochelle, N. Y., his body, with the hands and feet gone, was washed up on the shores of Long Island, not fur from the home of his parents. He no doubt was held some time by the kidnapers, who becoming panicky, murdered the boy and tossed the body into the sea. There may be some punishment sufficient for the perpetrators <>T such a crime but so far no one has suggested it. Do you expect to vote next November? If you do you should see that you are properly registered. That means if you have moved. changed your name, are a first voter or haven't voted for two years, your name is not on the register and it is necessary that you call at the county clerk's office and have your name properly set out. It may cause a little inconvenience but it's worth it to have something to say about who shall hold office. Do it at once, though you have until October 20th to register. The sooner it is concluded, the better you will feel, giving you a standing as a voting citizen. Now is the time to do something about making the Fourth of July a safe, as well as a glorious event. ; The day after is too late. Times have changed and automobiles now take a greater toll of this holiday than do fireworks yet there are still too many serious accidents, due to the handling of explosives.,) In 1935, which is the last year on : which there are official figures at J hand, a total of 6.940 serious acci-! dents occurred. Os these 539 [ brought blindness or eye injuries j and 24 were fatal. We can be j patriotic and have a good time and : yw&b<x careful In this state it is, unlawful to sell or have fireworks 1 until June 29th. A splendid idea is that promoted by the Decatur high school senior class of this year, turning their reserve cash into a fund to be used to place a plaque in the new build-. ing as a tribute to the late Martin I F. Worthman, beloved leader of the community and superintendent I of the schools for many years. The | money given this year is a founds-: tion for a sufficient amount to in-1) stall a valuable and proper tribute I lo a man who earned recognition and to one who made wonderful efforts that every child, rich or poor, alert or backward, should have his chance at an eduction that would fit him for the battle of life. Though Martin Worthman has been dead nearly four years, his wonderful example and his fine, wholesome and sound thoughts' live on and continue to help. The class of '3B has started a foundation that is worth while and will prove popular during many decades to come. Governor M. Clifford Townsend will be one of the North's key wit- i nesses opposing the petition of[ eight southern Governors for re-[ duced freight rates. Governor Townsend consented to appear at a hearing before the Interstate Commerce Commission in July after he had conferred with Indiana industrial leaders. He will defend the position of the North oppos- [ Ing the petition designed to build ' an “industrial South" by drawing I industries to the northern market. The petition ot the southern Gov-| ernors asks that a schedule of I lower rates be established on ship- ' ments from southern industries to the northern market. H. A. Hollopeter, representing industries in the Central States, following a conference with the Governor, said, "The Governor is not opposed to the Southern states' program of industrial development, but he is opposed to such a program when it

T. A. Discus, chairman of the State Highway Commission, is inviting farmers of the state to coi operate with the board in keeping tall bushes and '.crops out of the ‘ comers formed by the intersection of state and county highways. Frequently in the late summer, the tall corn and other growths limit the vision ot motorists and serious accidents occur. Many may not know there is a law in Indiana which makes this mandatory, 1 though it has never been rigidly i enforced that we have heard of. I An act enacted in 1891 and amendi ed in 1933 provides that hedge or live fences along roads shall not be allowed to grow higher than five feet above the level of the road for a distance of fifty feet from the intersection of a state highway with another road. It also says the same about any other natural growths except trees and that ue building shall be erected within fifty feet of sueh intersection. It's well to know that this is the law.

Q f Fewer Marriage Licenses Issued | In Month Os May * The marriage rate during the mouth of May suffered a sharp decline, according to a survey made in the county clerk's office. Only 19 j licenses were issued during the month. In the same -period tor last year 29 permits to marry were given. June, “the month of brides,’’ is expected, however, to bring up the total, in June of last year, 47 marriage licenses were issued. This was by far the largest number to: be given out in one month. The decline is attributed for the greates* part to two important fae-, tore. The first factor is the lack of employment in comparison with the same time last year. The second, factor is, the lesser number of Ohio couples who apply at the local offices for the permits since the ban on out-of -county issuances. —o Trade in a Good Town — Decatur
