You should have no trouble picking out just what you want and the prices are surprisingly low. Compare them with those in other cities and patronise your home stores. —o ’ Five days remain for Christmas shoppers.

Compare the prices and quality and we are sure you’ll join the thousands who are shopping in Decatur. 0 o Leslie Combs of Lexington. Kentucky paid more than a million and a quarter flrfflars for’ Nashua, a three year old race horse that has already won a fortune at the game. He was the former property of William Woodward whose tragic death occurred in his home in Long Island recently. It was the largest sum ever paid for a race horse. His new owner has retained the old trainer, Jim Fitzsimmons who * will take him to Florida for the Hialeah campaign. Few people would pay such a price for a racer. He will probably pay his own way. s

Indiana is becoming a Christmas tree state. Last year 90,000 Hoosier grown trees were sold and this year it is estimated about $60,000 of the green trees will be sold and an estimated million trees were planted during the year. It requires seven years to get them ready for the market and many farmers are going into the business. Chicago is the biggest market but about half the trees were sold in Indiana. 0 0 Newspaper managers are becoming worried about the newsprint situation as several have already started to reduce their demands. The Alpena News in northern Michigan, with 8,000 circulation has suspended publishing its Saturday edition. The alarming situation is due to the demands for advertising space -which has far exceeded anything in the past The newspapers in the larger cities seem to be using more than their share of print. 0 0The Christmas just approaching may be faced with some sad news as result of accidents figured from the past few years. From the night before Christmas until midnight of the big day, 515 accidental deaths were reported in this nation last year. Many of course resulted from traffic smash-ups but surprising numbers occurred right in the homes. A similar number of fatalities is predicted for this year with some added because of the extra day. It seems wise to advise the greatest care possible. 0 0 The state Chamber of Commerce. with the aid of Indiana's thirty-eight colleges and universities has compiled some interesting information. There are 72,924 students enrolled in Indiana Institutions of higher learning. Indiana University with an enrollment of 19,387 is the largest and SL Benedict’s college at Ferdinand with 51 students is the smallest. Os the thirty-eight colleges, four are maintained by the state, Indiana, Purdue, Ball State and Indiana State Teachers college. Vincennes University is the oldest college, founded in 1808 and the newest is St. Francis, Fort Wayne, founded in 1940.

Two Missionaries To 1 Be Freed Tuesday Dr. Homer Bradshaw ; And Wife Released r WASHINGTON (INS) — Two 1 American missionaries held by 5 Communist China for mora than five years are due to cross the bori der into freedom at Hong Kong i some time Tuesday. t They are Dr. and Mrs. Homer - V. Bradshaw, both in their 60’s. He I is the brother of William- A. Bradt shaw, of Pittsburgh, Pa., and rel cently was sentenced by the Communists to five years’ imprison- . ment. American Red Cross headquar- . ters at Washington said late Sunday night that word of the expect- , ed release came from the Chinese Red Cross. r • , The Red Cross expressed sur- . prise and gratification that Bradshaw's release was granted.
