o-—o 1 Thousands of Hoosiers will converge on Brown county this weekend to see the wonders of nature as the green colored trees change to a thousand colors. It's a sight you'll never forget, but remember the roads to Brown county will be heavy with traffic for the next ten days. Drive with caution and enjoy the beautiful scenery. o o Fall merchandise and Thanksgiving novelties are featured in many local retail stores. Soon all the stores will be displaying their Christmas merchandise. Stores with toy departments already have their wares on display. Indications are that the Christmas business this year will outdistance many previous years. Shoppers of this area are urged to visit the local stores and see the fine merchandise offered at prices you will like. o o i— We are sure the many residents of the northwest part of Decatur who some years ago saw their remonstrance against erection of a diesel plant in their R-l area, “made a matter ot record” and immediately forgotten, will smile when they hear the third term candidate say “thank you for your splendid co-operation.” Are the third termers waiting until the week before election to have an open house and formal dedication of the Million Dollar Baby? 0 o Four years ago today was a gala event in Decatur. The city water softener was formally dedicated to the “woman who does her own washing.” Today J£ere a sre more than 800 Decatur -subscribers to a soft water service. It isn't the equipment which has failed the housewife. Admittedly there are times when water is run into the mains without going through the softening process. Those who should know say ft is because sufficient salt is not used to do the job. The >7,000 to be spent for next summer's broom w mid buy a lot of salt and make a lot of housewives happy.
