As a sura proof that autumn is Mar at hand, the annual college ad-star football gams is scheduled for Soldier’s Field la Chicago tonight - = 0 k— The football season soon will take over the limelight from the fading baseball season, and then will come Thanksgiving and Christman. 0 0 »• Maybe that hot spell wasn’t so bed after all, especially when we read about hurricanes, storms, property damage and the like. The heat just made us uncomfortable. 0 $k— The couple who are getting a divorce after 40 years ought to reconsider and decide they will start over and give it a real trial. Hoosiers don't Quit for minor causes. 0 0 O. W. P. Macklin, new commander of Adams Post 43, American Legion, has announced his committees for 1955-54 and predicts that the local poet will have one ot its most active years. —o Former president of the United States, Herbert Hoover celebrated his 81st birthday this week and has no donbt given np any expectations he may have held for re-election. He can still hand out some good advice to other aspirants. 0 0 Adlal Stevenson has announced he will give his answer by November whether he will run for’the presidency or not Does he mean this year or next? We think candidates should get in or get out, giving *■ other fellows who have ~ their minds made np their chance. O o o ■ Former President and Mrs. Harry S. Truman received one of the greatest ovations ever given any Americans the other night at a baseball game at Kansas City, Mo. Perhaps, by comparison since he has been out of office, people are beginning to realise his greatness. We believe that Mr. Truman will go down in history as one of our great Americans.

President Eisenhower now has a new 375,000 plane purchased for him to make trips to and from the White House to his Gettysburg farm. It was needed we feel sure if for no other reason than an opportunity to dodge the secret service men whom he doesn’t feel are necessary. It’s a nice little job, and ought to do the work. 0 o The 12 township Trustees have done an excellent job in establishing their township rates. There have been a few reductions and in one or two instances there has been a small increase. The township officials watch their spending. probably because they are closest to the taxpayer. The farther removed an official is from the people, the more apt he is to become a little freer in the spending of public funds. —rio 0 Mrs. Mildred Foley, Adams county school attendance officer will return to her office next week and start plans for her work when schools resume early in September. Mrs. Foley, who has the task of recording daily attendance of all school children in the county, has done an excellent job the last several years. Her task is not an easy one and daily It takes her to all parts of the county. Mrs. Fbley has an office in the court house where her records are made permanent The proposed budget for Adams county will be published in legal form next week. In ita present form, the budget calls for a 31 cent tax increadb. This added to the school, city and township proposals, means a tax rate of more than >5.25 for residents of Decatur. Remember, Mr. Taxpayer, it’s your money which is being spent and you have a perfect right to attend the public hearing of the County Council, September .5 and 6, when fill appropriations will be discussed. Now is the time to object to a high tax rate, not in May or November when the tax is due.
