Mother s Day was observed generally and with a sincerity that is a good omen A nation which pays respect to the mothers ot the laud can't go tar wrong. Keep an eye on the dollar bills you handle. You may by reporting to the police be instrumental in apprehending the criminals who are circulating the spurious money. Perhaps Mr. Hoover picked out the Hays hotel at Warsaw tor his secret meeting believing it was the property ot that once remarkable polukiau Will H Hays. How-, ever they are no relation. Alter the senator cussed and dis cussed the farm appropriation bill, most ot the members almost broke their arms and legs to get right and the vote for a billion and a quarter dollars was •>! to 14. The total taxes on real and iter-s-inal property tor the spring iuateiluieui in Adams county was *33&.418 and only about seven thousand dollars of this was for delinquent tees That's a hue showingThere are a hundred columnists iu Washington these days, sending out manufactured propaganda and each evidently trying to prove to the country that he knows more thau President Roosevelt. What a ■ kit v( brains we are overlooking. ‘ Decatur has a large supply of' coal on band which will worry the average person much less than if we had uone. The strike has been adjusted or compromised and the j probabilities are that no out need worry about genius all the fuel be needs tor nest winter. The new school building al Berne is uuariug completion and by autumn will be ready, a hands->in<. I modem and convenient structure for the boys and girls of that community to work in. W<- are very proud Indeed of the excellent schools and churches In every part ( of the county. There has been a great improvement iu business the past two weeks. We believe it i» dm largely to the increased advertising spare which has been used. That aids others as well as yourself aud | that's why it takes cooperation of > the business men ot a coinuiuidiy' to gel best results. Plana are bring discussed for tinaming the addition to the Decatur light and power plant, an improvement that Is necessary If tbe city la to continue its forward march. Os course the greatest possible tare should be taken to get the beat plant tor the least money and the officials an- wisely conferring with several engineering Arms. Why bring up the death ot Huey Long now? Home one has demand *1 SU iuvestlgatluu of tbe death ot tbe Louisiana senator three
I years ago, claiming that several I people in Washington knew L-mg ■ was to be assassinated aud who was to do the Job. Weil its over >J and things have settled down conI sldrrably Iu that part of the U. 8. .. A. Perhaps It would be heller for every one II they just let it go at it that. M »■„! R Tbe yard aiouud the new junior j aud senior high school building is j being leveled aud will be laud--0 scaped during the summer. Grass * and shrubs will be planted and the 0 j place will be made into a beautl--0 ful par HI Ike ground. The build-*-iug. oue of the most modern aud complete In the mid-flc west, was | hist occupied late- last autumu aud this is the hist opportunity SuperI Inteutlvnt Krick and his aides have ' bad to get real busy on tbe outI side. Wi 11, it's all straightened out, I President Hoover is coming to In- , dlaua just to make a Social call ‘’ on the editors. He just loves ,- them aud he will have such a good ( Ume talking over with them the I j weather, the elope end the general gossip, but not a word is to be spokeu by auy one about politics. ! • it all sounds a little silly, don't you think? Mr. Hoover wouidu t be ■ wasting his Sunday un such a trip if he could remind his Hoosier I friends of the press jus! as well by , postal cards Commaudei Vincent Horman aud Ed Bauer, chairman ot a special committee, from Adams Post No. - 43, American Legion, will have ’ charge of the program here for , Memorial Day. an occasion that will never lie overlooked as long as we have painotw- citterns. Every cemetery will be visited and the graves appropriately decorated aud there will be tbe usual program. Iu addition memorial 33th. Let's not forget those who . dvtemitd the great American hag The reeotnmeudatioii of Clyde F. I Dreisbai b to be postmaster al Fort Wayne is good news to bls many Decatur Jneuds. The colonel spent considerable tune here iu 1917 helping old company A to gel ready tor tamp and since lheu has - visited here frequently as a salesman. He is qualified, has person ably and is a real fellow, drsenImg of ibis tine recognition. His I selection by the committee by a j vote of si to 46 must have scouri cd him that he had made a worth - while campaign. Col. Dreisba- h - has lived iu Fort Wayne all his lift- aud is held iu the very highest I esteem by every one who knows him. He will no doubt be recom- ; meuded by the senators aud tho i president and his appointment up- 1 proved iu due time. Hvuator Frederick VanNuys is i opposed to tho Florida < anal pro iJe« t and it his inhumation is corI rwet. it certainly seems foolish to | spend hundreds ot millumu of dol- j , lars Oil something that is uelther needed nor wanted. There are | many other places to spend im>u>-y - if it must be dope but Uh M-nuior is right In his poMUcm that "never before was there a Ume wh«-ti i efficiency aud ecuuomy should be taken into < ousidcratiuu more eanivsUy thau al present." Wo i have a big relief problem and we ; have many other things to do that | will cost billions, so that the wise | thing la to do the level we can on I every proposition that arises. Let's get our feet on in-- grouud aud keep them there. It will be better for the poor, the middl- class aud the wealthy.
