Gen. MacArthur evidently wasn’t kidding anybody when he« stated that he was not a candidate for ths presidency, or any other political office. He ordered the removal of his name from the \ Illinois primary ballot and seems to have ended about his being a receptive candidate. , o o The city health board has been reorganized under the new state law requiring the appointment of physicians to that-official body. Dr. James Burk will be secretary and Dr. Roland Reppert and Dr. Arthur H. Girod will bp members. A clerical secretary will be appointed by the board to administer office details. Everybody is interested 1 in health and how to maintain it. Public health problems are the concern of every citizen and the city is fortunate In obtaining the services of the three local physicians who will be on guard in protecting the health of the community. —o— * U Bam E. Hite, successful and esteemed merchant of this city has announced his retirement from the grocery business, a trade that be followed for 52 years. His friends join in saying that he has earned the fruits of his labor and now is entitled to the comfort and ease which retirement should bring. Long prominent in business and civic circles in Decatur, Mr. Hite is an . individualist who built a neighborhood grocery which not only withstood competition from chain stores, but has - grown steadily through the years. Hite’s grocery is a landmark in this city which will to operate under the management of Mr. Hite's son. Our wish is that the coming years will be good to Mr. and Mrs. Hite, long may they live and enjoy health. o o . t Tfie retirement of Sam E. Hite from the grocery business recall* to mind that Decatur has two other merchants’ who can be classified as veterans in retail elites. They are Wilson Lee of the Lee Hardware Store' and Dan M. Niblick, president of Niblick A Company’s -department store. These men never miss a day at their stores. They “keep young” by Attending to business, meeting and devoting their thofaght so store management. We arejhappy to salute them.

RECENTLY in thin column I mentioned some newly discovered drugs that are helpful in many tkin disorders. One that has shown great promise in treating skin infections is an antibioth; called meomycin. One; '©(A the good points about this that people are rarely allergic to it, even though they may be allergic to other antibiotic drugs, such as, for example pent eiilin. Many times peole with local skin- infections pre treated with an antibiotic ointment which later produces an allergy to that paiticular i antibiotic. The allergic reactions make it impossible for these people to use the drug again if it is needed to treat a severe infection, such as an infection of an internal organ. The solution to this problem jnay lie In using neomycin and other new' antibiotics for skin infections. Neomcin is rarely used internally. When employed in teases of severe infaction, it eposes few allergic reactions.

Th® tragic death of Robert F. Patterson, former secretary of war and 30 other persons to azairplane crash ip Elizabeth, N.J., saddens the country.

McCann of New York, one oT the leading advertising executives In th® country and head of McCann.Erickson Company, which places about 880,000,000 worth of advertising in newspapers and •other medih for American’s most concerns, a commendable observation on ninntog a business. Said be: “There is no infallible formula for success. One man runs a business one why, and it-does well. Another man runs it ft) an entirely different way, and it does well, perhaps it does better. It goes without saying, however, that businesses that are permanently successful have a code of honesty, fair dealing with Customers and; employes, decent relations with competitors, and they follow sound business principles.” We think that code must be used by dvery ’ business that Wishes to be successful, m- ■ml i ■ ■
