Chicago Charter Member of The Indiana League ot Home Dailies. Start this week off with an advertisement that will bring customers to your store. You can do it it you will and the results will please you. The winning nt the first few games of baseball doesn't wan the TRnnant Is "in the bag" but they eount just as much as those at the end of season. Now that the basketball championships are settled we can turu our attention to the baseball clubs that have been trying to attract attention in spring training. If those tans who yelled them selves out at the state basketball tournament, will use the aamt amount of energy aud pep they, can whip the world when they get started. It was ten degrees hotter in Indiana the latter part ot last week than It was in Miami, but the average for any month would more than tur that record around. Easter season is near and every one is looking for some kind ot wearing apparel with which to join | the big parade. You can get just what you want in the Decatur stores. The early spring weather has brought a lot of inquiries for carpenters, painters and other work men and the sooner you get your order in, the better it will be for both you aud the workmen Don't neglect tax paying You have about live weeks to attend to thia important job aud the suouct | you do it the easier it will be ou the treasurer and his assistant* and the easier tor you as well. Ix-eders ot basket ball tn the ■ state want to go back to sixteen team tiuaU aud most funs will prefer It to the present method of eliminating all but four of the nearly eight hundred teams. Let's goAs the season ot nice weather opens, its well to remember that your first duty as au automobile driver Is to be careful and that doesn't moan just once in a while but every minute you have hold ot a (leering wheel. Don’t overlook the city tig for your dog. It he gets out on the strcot without one he will be lock-1 cd up in the pound and then it not . properly redeemed within ten * days will be disposed ot by the , police officers. Thais the law. Tuiu Marshall once said that what thia country needed was a good ! lvc-ccni cigar. Now according Io a big manufacturing concern. wbul we need Is a two for five-cent cigar and they are putting on a great campaign along that line.

campotwe St Fort Wayne June 10 and 11 and the committee la preparing an lutrtvsting program It I to expected that nearly a thousand I. boys from northeast Indiana will | attend. *1 While the political writers are t busy trying to guess who the next j president will be. the voters are quietly awaiting developments and have not yet made up their minds. ‘ The IMO campaign will be one of i) the moat interesting ones ever » held In the good old V. 8. A. I 7 j Congressman Gillie finds him- * self In a tough spot. He voted to raters the WPA appropriation 31te.fi0d.0g*. Now a scathing petition to being circulated at Fort j Wayne, demanding that he votes for the appropriation when It to reintroduced. If hr does he will lose out with hie rich supporters and if he doesn't he to off the list with the ordinary folks. Legislation to protect travelers I on the ocean liners against card sharks has been proposed by Attorney General Murphy. Os course I if its possible to stop these slickera It should be done but they are | ' foxy and usually the big hauls are | made in a private state room where no one looks on and the victim hesitates to publish the in-1 cident which would make him out a "sucker." It's hard to work up much sympathy tor those who permit themselves to be drawn Into tbe "shell" games. Earl Durand, the wild man ot I Wyoming. who held a hundred man posse and the militia off leu days in tbe greatest man hum iu I years, closed bis career dramatic- , ally to say the least. He dodged the hunters, slipped back to his home towu. held up a bank and was shot by a seveuteen-year-old bid. Then he finished it off with la bullet through hts own head Ot course it would have been much j better if he bad taken his months j setoieitoF for shooting wild game out ot season. Congratulations to Mr and Mrs i Thomas Fisher who celebrated their Golden wedding Sunday aud received the sincere beet wishes of hmidres of their neighbors and friends. A halt century ot happy married life in the finest community in Uh -corld, where they have been excellent citixens in all the words imply, they have the respect i of every one here who wish tor' them many more years together and the happiness that comes to , fine Christian people as they are. in their matured days. Central Catholic of Fort Wayne i won the national basketball champ i kinship at Chicago last night, de- ! fCh ting Leo of that city, a worthwhile spurt* event that net the Summit City wild with joy. Thou* and* crowded the streets ot Fort Wayne late last evening and paraded aud yelled for hours, the event equaling that of last year »hen Houth Side took ths Indiana state championship. The lerya of I C. C. made a great showing, work- . Ing through a schedule of five stiff teams to take the final by a score i of H to 37. ■ * Wc know nothing about money, Os course, but we are a little sus Ipn ious about ruceut siren calls from the East, where they know all about money Home of tb> financiers are inviting the public Ito speculate ou the stock exchange , It Is pointed out that the big pools lot investment capital are now tied up In Government securities, and the traders need the outside money. in order that new ventures be financed. John W Cittern has » I large sum of ready cash. lying mi- ' protective In the bank vaults. Why duesn t ho take a chance with it? He could make business boom, at least ou the stuck exchange, aud perhaps cause the wheels ot industry to begin turning at great I tpeed It bounds like a good story. , and we <4 agree that it the .«jed
