A large majority of Decatur citizens are not only Church Members; they’re also Church goers. And this is one of the reasons we have such an outstanding community. „ o o It’s amazing but pleasant news that automobile mishaps have been kept at a minimum during all the recent ice and snow. It proves that people can be careful when they have the desire. ——o ■ o Os course there will still be lots of ice, snow and sleet and let us all hope that the driving example we have set the last few days extends through the winter and even into next summer. • o ' Mails are being flooded now with garden and flower seed catalogs. It may seem miles away but it won’t be too long now until there’ll be spring in the air and we’ll be getting out the spade and hoe——o—r— Don’t forget your 1957 auto license plates. If you failed to remember to get them today, better try tomorrow, bong lines will be the style in another few days and then you’ll be mad at yourself. You must have your November tax receipt too. That’s the law. o o►— If you visit the business section of Decatur any Saturday, you will see many new faces. Every week, • more and more shoppers are realizing the fact that Decatur merchants are giving them wonderful values and every week, people come to Decatur from a larger area. That increase will continue, . aa-4ong as we continue to give * good values' and' courteous treatment. Let us hope that this pat- ' ronage continues to grow and that we always warrant the shoppers’ confidence. O'- 1 — o The Greater Decatur committee, a group of citizens with the sole thought of mating our city, better is completing its campaign for funds with which to buy a factory site. This proposed site would be used as an inducement for the securing of a new industry for Decatur. Every person in the community would benefit either directly or indirectly if a new large manufacturing plant were located here; therefore ev-

ery person in the community should assist this group in its effort ——o——o-— The last reapportionment of members of the Indiana general assembly came in 1919. All efforts since that time have been thwarted. At every session since 1919, an effort has been made to re-divide the membership and it always has been defeated. Three reapportionment proposals have been made in the present session. How serious the Assemblymen are remains to be seen. Rural members always have stopped previous similar measures on the theory that cities would gain legislative control, if a new measure were adopted. o—o While these are uninteresting days in the General Assembly from a spectator's viewpoint, they nevertheless are the days when the actual work is done. Members are busy all day long with committee meetings and public hearings. It’s the period of the session when future laws slowly take ofirm. If is the period of the session when members hear from home concerning all sorts of proposed legislation. If you are planning to contact your Assembly members, now is a good time when more time can be given “pet plans and suggestions.” ——o o Phil Dickens, University of Wyoming, is the new football coach at Indiana University. Simultaneously with the appointment, it was announced that Indiana would also have a new stadium with a seating capacity of 56,000. How wonderful! In the last 20 years, the present stadium which seats 35,000 spectators has never been filled. Is it any wonder that our state colleges are severely criticized for the way they squander our money? It doesn’t add up. This state has needed larger pre-medical school facilities for years. Many of our medical students are compelled to finish their training outside the state and I.U. still plans such monstrosities as a 56,000 seat stadium. We once said, and we repeat it, that the proposed stadium will be a wonderful place to have the finals of the state high school band contest.

An attentive escort, of course, should make such a request unnecessary. But should he be forgetful enough, it is perfectly proper for the girl to ask him. Q. When a bride is writing notes of thanks to friends who do not know her husband, should the notes be signed with both names? A. The signature should be her name only, but the note should say, “Dick and I deeply appreciate, etc." Q. When drinking any kind of refreshment, isn’t it proper to leave a little of the liquid in the glass? A. Not necessarily. One may very properly drink it all. Trade In a Goou . vwn — Decan*
