there are some fourteen St Valentines Hated in history, and the origin could have sprung from any of them. Well accept the on® we have told until we find a better one. o 0 The month of marks the birthday observances of two great Americans. George Washington, first President of the United States was born in Virginia February 22, 1732. lie led the Colonists through the war for. independence and then was called upon by the new nation to be the first President. Abraham Lincoln, known as our Civil War President, preserver of the United States and liberator of the slaves, was born in Kentucky on February 12, 1809. Both men lived and served because of their faith in America. Both had strong enemies, which they were able to defeat because of that great faith. Neither lived to see all of his dreams come true but each branded a lasting influence in the progress of our Nation. May the time never come when we forget those men, great and small, who through the years have aided in solving problems which today make us the greatest Nation in the world. 0 o The Adams theater, under the management of Roy Kalver this week observes its thirtieth birthday of supervision by the Kalver family. The popular Decatur movie house was purchased by I. A. Kalver and Roy Kalver in February, 1926. Lt has long been an amusement center for young and old of northeastern Indiana and its contribution to good clean jjatertainment plus the Kalvers many civic contributions to' the community have made it an institution. I. A. Kalver, father of Roy Kalver, retired from active, management several years ago, but is still a member of the corporation. We join the community in congratulating Mr. and I. A. Kalver and Mr. and Mrs. Roy Kalver for the many happy hours of entertainment they have brought to ♦this community and also for their many contributions to our civic activities which have brought progress to our city. Happy Birthday and continued success!
