Vacation time lends itself to recreation of the body and spirit; don’t spoil It by some impetuous act of folly- Use the good common sense with which we were all endowed. , .. 0 ' In 1800, Indiana was organized uas a territory and has since developed into one of the groat states. Many changes have come about since Vincennes was our state capital and William Henry Harrison was territorial governor, latra-party bickering could be reduced and greater advances made in the future. , o , . o-— Rich music from the early birds for the early risers is well worth your time. Thten, too, the jewelled patterns from the moist cobwebs on the lawns are a sight to behold as nature stretches and gets ready for another day. It is nice to get up in the morning—when the sun begins to shine. ■— "O o — The dangerous Monroe street bridge continues to stand as* monument to those who desire to wait until there is a bad accident. The "Neroes” in our state highway department cannot see fit to act now. For t-w-e-n-t-y long years there has been need for improvement of that bridge but prevention of accidents seems to be a dream of just a few of us. —o——o Another in the long series of kindnesses shown to Decatur was climaxed last week when the site for the sewage disposal plant was . <br “donated free of leins and encumberances” to the civil city. Central Soya Co., Inc., through the good offices of the made the area available to us and we say, “Thanks again, McMillens:” Oi.i i If seems strange that the State of Indiana is unable to put its bestQoot forward for our out-of-state visitors who travel highway 2M? Weeds and general lack of to many of bur roadways is not the best device to sell the Hoosier state to others. There should be no laek of equipment dOF personnel, we pay our taxes but get so little in return; still there must be an answer. What's your guess?

While America burns over medical bill, Congress goes blithely on its way to the tune of 970 billion for a peacetime budget. We are lulled so easily. —o—o—- ■ Recently it was revealed that six hundred thirty privately-sup-ported colleges and universities will receive more than 9130 million as the Ford Foundation's final payment under its program to help raise faculty salaries. In Indiana. there were eighteen colleges and universities which received grants that totaled more than 98 million. Schools which are hard-pressed for funds will be able to utilize these grants to great advantage for enrollments are continuing to rise. Such action is highly commendable for our small schools are greatly in need of financial aid. O' 11 O—— Stratton lake at the eart edge of Decatur has been the cause of some recent discussion. If it is to be used as a swimming “hole," there should be some safety precautions provided. It is unlikely that the city can plan to make any use of the area despite the suggestions of some that it could be converted into a reservoir. Since the entire area is beyond the city limits, perhaps it falls under the jurisidction of the county commissioners. Be that as it may, there still should be some reflection upon the dangers involved and steps taken toward alleviating them. —o—o Decatur Rotarians marked two important firsts at their meeting last week. An unusually keen analysis of many complicated international problems was presented by Dr. Stephen Kertesz. member of the political science staff of Notre Dame University. Dr. Kertesz is said to have given a series of logical answers to many varied questions on foreign affairs.At the same meeting, the Rotarians decided to sponsor an exchange student for the next school year. This project should lend itself to a broadening of bur understanding of others as well as to make possible an interchange of ideas. Both Items are deserving of utmost praise. Well done, Rotarians.
