New York City proposes to put an end to jaywalking. They will adopt an ordinance providing fifty dollar tines and thirty jiays in jail which ought to work if enforced. —o—_o Chief Justice Earl Warren Issued a statement a year or so ago that he would not run for president under any consideration and the decision was irrevocable. But that was before they put the pressure on him. Now a lot of voters are wondering what, his real decision will be. The Dally Democrat will present its annual Christinas opening edition next Wednesday night in connection with the regular edition of this newspaper. The paper containing advertisements of many local retail stores will be mailed to every rural route patron in the county. Watch for this newspaper and use it as your guide to Christmas gift suggestions at reasonable prices. ■“- o 0 The Geneva Conference, designed to carry out the peace t> 1a n s announced adjournment without making any headway. The masked smile that Russian representatives have been putting on has faded away and it seems the plans were never intended for ultimate approval ot real things that would bring peace to the world. The Communists are will-" jng only to go along with those things they feel will help their world domination program. Mr. Dulles tried hard but apparently It was as predicted, a false alarm. 0 O—October employment in seven lelading industries, dropped frtyn 1,575 in September to 1,452 in October. The number of employed men and women, however, is still considerably higher than October of 1954. The decrease from September is said by industrial leaders to be due to the fact that we are near the end of the year and it is termed a seasonal drop rath-

i er than an indication of a permanent drop. Other items such, as the number of utility instaUatiorih, ' building permits, postal receipts , and c&rloadings in and out reveal i a healthy condition in this area. 1 Q.—o ( The new road from Decatur to ] Fort Wayne, U. S. highway 27 and 33, is open to the motoring 1 public. The detour signs have been removed, but throughout the winter the "travel at your own risk” signs will remain. The dual lane road the final three miles ( into Fort Wayne will not be com- i pleted until next year, but the J rest ot the road is finished. The f state highway commission and the contractors have done a splen- 1 did job in laying out and constructing a modern highway. | There is scarcely a place where ( vision is shut off in either dlrec- ‘ tion. Motorists are warned that because of the possioility of the road becoming a speedway, speed 1 and traffic laws will be .rigidly j enforced. -—0 C The resignation of Harry | "Jack”Jr win from membership on < the Decatur school board because he is moving out of the corporation limits and therefore is in- 1 eligible to serve, removes from { that board an efficient and faith- i ful member. Mr. Irwin is complet- J ing the first year of his second term on the board and he has seen the school enlargement pro- * gram get underway with comple- , tion of the new Northwest Ele; t mentary school. Whoever the Council sees fit to name as Ir- s win’s successor will have a big job. We are glad, however, that the school board member is not going far from Decatur. He is planning to mBYe into his new home soon, just south of the cor- € poration limits and we are sure he will continue to show a keen in- , terest in our schools and our t children. While be is not eligible to serve on the board, we still ’ claim him as a Decaturite, who has done much good for our community. I

When a girl wfco is to be married finds that her list of guests is too large for the room available/ should she issue the invitations anyway to the entire list, trusting to luck that many will not attend?

If a young man who does not have a car invites a girl to a dance, and this girl does own a car. would it be all right for her to suggest that they use it? A. Yes. this is quite all right. Q. Is a "dinner coat" the same as a "tuxedo"? * A. Yes; in faet, "dinner coat” is the preferred term. 0 ——— u I Household Scrapbook | | BY ROBERTA LEE Paper Patterns When buying a pattern that is to be used a number of times, make any necessary alterations after the first cutting and you will not have to figure out Just what was done to that pattern to make it correct. • Cutting Wood Wood that is to be used for fishing rods, or any such purposes, should be cut during January, when thd sap is entirely out of the wxiod.

Three Orphaned By Blast Offer Prayer Children Pray For Saboteur Os Plane PITTSBURGH (INS) —Three youngster* whose parents were killed in the Denver airplane bombing have left Pittsburgh for their new home in Portland, Ore. with a prayer of mercy on their lips. Their prayers were for 23-year-old John Gilbert Graham, the alleged slayer of their father and mother and 42 other persons aboard the ill-fated aircraft. The boys, Gerald Llpke, Jr., 11, Robert, 9, and John 7, led their classmates in a recitation of the rosary on their last day at St. Grabriel'a parochial school in Pittsburgh. Father Lawrence O’Connell, pastor of St- Gnabriel's, said that he spoke to Gerald as ‘ head of the family,” saying: •‘I am going to have your classmates go to church and say the rosary for your father and mother.” Father O'Connell related that Gerald thought for a moment, and then sugges.ed: •'Father, couldn’t we say the -osary, too, for the man who put •he dynamite in the plane?" The priest said the boy explained: “Fu'her, St. Maria Goretti prayed for the man who kiljed her, didn’t-she? Maybe God might forgive this man and make him a saint someday, too, to be in heaven with my dad and mom.” Maria Goretti, an Italian saint, was stabbed to death hi the Pontine marshes near Rome in 1902 by an enraged laborer and prayed for her assailant until the end. The bodies of Mr. and Mrs. Llpke, killed in the crash while on a combination business and vacation trip, were buried from St. Grabriel’a church after a solemn Requiem high massThe youngsters are enroute by train to live with their aunt and uncle, Mr. and Mrs. William Moran, of Portland. Ore. The parents were on their way to visit the Morans when they were killed. Predict Large Scale Salk Vaccine Output KANSAS CITY, Mo.
