It will be a great event and you will enjoy IL You had a much better time sitting by the radio than you would have had at the Yankee stadium and we are sure it was less expensive. There was more belting on the sixe of the gale receipts at the LouisCalento tight last night than there was on the results of the fray. Mr. Garner has a right to be peeved because the special writers. probably egged on by the G. O. P. strategists, are saying he " reminds them of the late Mr. Coolidge. Adams county will make a good 'showing at the McNutt reception tomorrow, with the attractive girl’s baud, a large delegation, banners of welcome to *'Paul" from the McNutt tor president club and plenty of enthusiasm. Congratulations are being extended to Mrs. Phoebe Schumacher. well known ploueer lady ot this city who today celebrated her B*th birthday anniversary at her hom< on Elm street. The children cam< home and the occasion was a very happy one. A straw vole taken among editors of the country place Paul V. McNutt in fifth place tor the nomination tor president but we have a "hunch" that they will change that prediction considerably within the neat year. The organisation back ot McNutt is alive and iu earnest. * More than three hundred rich Americans have abandoned or sold their European residences whore where they have been going for vacations. It's a little dangerous for rich and especially tor those from the U. 8. A. to spend very much time abroad and a lot ot lhe idle ones have no place to slay but at home, isn't that tough7 Prof. Albert Sellemeyer la again receiving congratulations for another achievement In the Hue of baud music. The Decatur Catholic school hand, organised in October ot 1937, gave their first public concert last evening at the stand oil Liberty Way. The thirty boys and girls played a doseu pieces, all good, and the youngsters made their director and their friends proud. The legionnaires ot Adams Post, No. 43. American Legion, will present the name of Vincent J. Bormann. commaador of the local post, as a candidate tor commander of the fourth district. The post has never bad such an honor and with a capable and popular candidate. as Vince is. will make every effort to put him over and will have the support of < itusus iu general here.
Congratulations to First Lieutenant Richard Bchug who has completed his medical course and has been aalactud for an important > position In the Medical Corps of , the regular army. Duly thirty-live i ; received appointment, selection | based on the results of an examInatlog held iu March. His Adams , county friends are really proud of his success aud wish for him continued promotions in the great and I i important service he has chosen. I Credit is due Alfred K. Dowd, , warden of the Michigan City prison because of the manner In which he handled the recent attempt of I prisoners to escape. During the ' past several years, Indiana has had considerable difficulty in prevent- 1 ing prix’ii escapes aud has received much criticism. It is a tough job at best to handle hardened criminals, but Mr. Dowd has been making the right kind ot an effort, is an experienced officer and is proving th«- widsom of his selection for the important post. CUB Thompson, who is eight feet, seven inches tall and weighs 460 pounds, attracted a 10l of attention as he sauntered around the streets here. He is said to be the second tallest man in the world, an HUnoia man being an inch taller. That his huge size is an inconvenience is unquestioned for he requires two beds special chairs, must have all his clothes made special and his car seat is back where lhe rear seat is iu the usual car. At that he is happy and gets along with a smile, which is after all the main thing. Twenty or more cars and aI school bus are expected to be in the delegation which will convey I a hundred from Adams county to | W morning. I’ where they will take part in the j parade and the reception for Paul ' t V. McNutt, high commissioner, re- ‘ 1 turning from the Philippines, where ' , he has done a good job. He is being supported as a candidate for I the Democratic nomination for president. .More than three hundred Republicans will be a part of I the reception tomorrow, welcoming I Paul home. You are invited. Politicians and p.u' - ■ ■ ■»- < papers may say what they please but the administration of Cliff Townsend as governor ot Indiana i stands for itself. After two and a halt years the check-up shows < that new industries worth 8186,ooO.iHM) have come to Indiana, the i <■ labor division has established < the best record in lhe Union, adjusting 923 disputes. Indiana is one , of the three leading states for rural < electrification, utility rates have 1 have been reduced ten million dollars. traffic fatalities have been re- ( duced 26% aud 700.W0 children I are attending public schools, supported substantially by the state. ( Cliff has made, is making and will i continue to make good. The counting of “noses," officially known as taking the census will be done next year. This Im- ■ portant matter la attended to of■, tidally every ten years. In the I meant Ime cities and counties can I claim whatever they wish and often ’ this has to be corrected alter tbs I official report is made. In Decatur , ' we are sure there is no doubt of - an Increase, which may be l.« 00 i more than in 1930. Several huu I died houses have been erected I here and we know we have InI creased tn numbers. The governi ment will name district supervisors who In turn will have county enumerators and these will be aid- , cd by sufficient men aud women so ■ the count can be made iu a couple ■ of weeks, but It does not stop 1 there tor the census must include , ■ a complete statistical report of t sales, payrolls, plants, hotels, theI stars, tourist camps, contractors i- aud every thing else. The census y also will Include rural figures on II atnouut of livestock, crop acrcags. u mortgages aud taxes, a big job that will be done promptly. Os
