Gov. Handley got off to a good •tart in his acceptance message this week. He favors a cut in the proposed budget, and a statement of that nature always is well taken by the public. The hew Hoosier Governor seems to know the desires of the people and he is starting his tenure of office with apparent good intentions. One big thing in Gov. Handley’s favor is that he has succeeded a man whose record as an administrator was far from acceptable to many of the people and whose constant bickering with members of his own party set a new low in Hoosier politics. Governor Handley will have the confidence of a big majority of the people until he, himself dissipates that confidence. —• Howard Kennedy, 82, father of Mrs. Charles Hite of this city, whose death occurred this week will be remembered by thousands of the nation’s fishermen. Mr. Kennedy, who resided in Van Wert, O„ at the time at his death, was the manufacturer of the outstanding and most universally used fishing tackle box on the market. While he will be long remembered for this achievement, he also had many other attributes which t marked this prominent manufacturer as a splendid citizen. He was active in civic and Church affairs in the neighboring Ohio city and throughout his life he set a pattern of good citizen and father. We join countless others in extending sympathy to the Kennedy family, and especially to Mrs. Hite. His civic, Church and family activities will be long remembered by those who knew him. • .. —o , O' - Mrs. Robert Lane, prominent Decatur lady again has consented to direct the annual Mothers’ March on Polio. The annual drive will be held here on the night of January 25. Mrs. Lane will be assisted this year by Mrs. Fred Corah. Success of the drive, of course, depends on the cooperation of all of us. Mrs. Lane and Mrs. Corah will give freely of their time and they ask that you give just as freely of your dimes and dollars, to help in the all-out fight against the vicious crippier and killer. A request has been made by Mrs. Lane and Mrs. Corah for volunteers and we are

confident that Decatur women wUI, as usual, give of their time for this most worthy cause. Women are asked to contact either Mrs. Lane or Mrs. Corah if they desire to help in the drive. ■ .o ■' o Cal E. Peterson, Decatur man, has been re-elected president of the board of trustees at Adams county Memorial hospital. Dee Fryback, also of Decatur has been named secretary. Wilbert Nussbaum and Henry Bumpie are the other two members of this important board. It is an especially difficult task this year, because of the half miUion dollar re-building program now in progress. The people have extreme confidence in the abUities of these men and, while their task is a big one, the Commissioners apparently have selected the four men best qualified to do the job. It is ' months, our county will be able to boast one of the finest hospitals in the state. We are confident the board members will continue to give the program their very best. - <>■ ■■■ o Central Soya Co., last night paid tribute to fifty-seven employes, who have achieved fifteen and ten years of service with that great manufacturing concern here. These men and women have given a large part of their life to Central Soya, which in turn has given much more than employment to its several hundred employes and the City of Decatur. Soya has been a leader in civic improvements in our city. The Company has always taken the lead in promoting those things which are a requisite for any good community. Soya has sponsored athletics, better citizenship, participation in elections, and about everything known to make a community a better place to live and rear a family. These honored employes received more than a gold pin for service, fop each of them know that they have been an important part in making Decatur the greatest little city in the world. Paul Hensel, Central Soya vice-president in charge of personnel, presented the service awards, representing the company and Tom Allwein, Decatur plant manager assisted. It was a great occasion for the employes and the Company.
