He may have a red slant on things, but with that kind of a salary he’s enjoying a few of the luxuries unknown to the masses in Russia. If he’s a Com- • munist, why does Hollywood pay him such a fabulous yearly stipend? o o Boys and girls can enjoy themselves without destroying property or becoming rowdies, just because its Halloween. The parade is staged for merrymaking and to attract those who wish the traditional hallow eve. We have sufficient confidence in the youth of the city, that they will enter into the spirit of things and help make Halloween a civic undertaking, enjoyable to all and void of vandalism. o o The best evidence to the elected officials of our city that the people are interested in their government, would be to have more than 3,00 P voters cast their ballot in next Tuesday’s election.

in wages, cost of matefidls and added services and improvements, will remain the same. Out of the . total rate of $3.19, the civil city receives only 78 cents. On the basis of SI,OOO of taxables, the local taxpayer pays only $7.80 for city governnjenJ, w fire and police protection, street lighting, garbage . collection, stteet cleaning and other municipal services. The city administration has done well in . giving us good government at nominal expense. o o— — Girl Scouts: t This week has been designated as Girl Scout Week and the three hundred Girl Scouts of Decatur ( are joining with a million other girls across the country in its celebration. These youngsters and young women—they range in age front seven to seventeen—are taking this opportunity to say a formal "thank you” to the individual men, 1 women and to the organizations, both community and national, who 1 have helped and guided them in their activities. To the Girl Scouts, this "thank you” is a kind of sum-ming-up at the end of the thirtyfifth year of their existence as an organization. It is an expression * of their appreciation to those adults who have given their support to the young women of our . country. > It is an interesting comentary upon the thinking of our young ■ people that they should want to ■ say “thank you,” when in reality we adults have just as much reason ■ to say “thank you” to them. These > girls, in their trim uniforms with > their bright smiles and their constant willingness to serve, are a • source of inspiration to grown-ups everywhere. They represent the future of our country and, with 1 their international membership, - the future of the world. The Girl Scouts need more older i friends to volunteer as leaders and i sponsors for the girls that are still > waiting for a chance to join. You ’ can earn the heartfelt gratitude of our young citizens by offering . to share with them your hobbies, your time or your club's sponsor- . ship. 0 Oct. 30, 1927 Was Sunday. 4_——

O— 6 Modern Etiquette i I By ROBERTA LEE I O— o Q. When making a business telephone call, and a man’s secretary asks for the name, isn’t this somewhat presumptuous? A. Not in the least No doubt she has been requested to do this. Some busy men are bothered so much by insignificant calls that this is rieceSsary. Q. How should a man at a dance intfbduce his partner to another couple? A. “Miss Crawford (his partner), this is Miss Miller and Mrs. Franklin.” Q. May a printed card be used to acknowledge the wedding gifts? A. Never; acknowledgments! must be made by handwritten letter. o O C I Household Scrapbook I I By ROBERTA LEE | O n Hotter Fdod Before filling the cup or bowl with the hot noufishment for the invalid, it with boiling water. Let stand for a minute or so and then pour out. Dry the cup quickly and fill with the nourishment. You will find the food will stay hot much longer than if poured into a cold cup. Kid Gloves After perspiring in kid gloves, shake a little powder into them. It will absorb the moisture and prevent that smell of leather that is so objectionable. Serving Fish Silver utensils should always be used when serving fish, as steel often imparts a very disagreeable taste. .... : Favor Town Purchase Os Berne Auditorium Berne, Oct. 30 — In a straw Ote taken by the Berne Rotary club at its weekly luncheon meeting, they voted IS to 3 in favor of having the town of Berne purchase the Berne auditorium.
