School is still out. Drive carefully, protect our boys and girls. | 0 0 The new radar screens should encourage a slow-down for all. Take your time and enjoy the trip. SLO DOWN — DRIVE SENSIBLY. —j O O Many pitfalls around our homes require attention from all of us. Too often we have reason tor regret when accidents occur. Take time to survey the entire property for some of those little things which can create a big problem, it will not take long and will stand in good stead later on. O O Astronomical figures of the moment cause few to lift an eyebrow over a cut of 100.000 men from our armed forces. We should not overlook the estimated 1200 millions that can be trimmed from the national budget for a few such reductions would soon be noticeable on our tax bill. Other, proposed cut-backs may provide some relief for over-taxed Americans but we would not suggest that you make any plans to spend the savings, just yet. O O Wondrous tales of “swapping” jf’ addition to other unusual experiences are being unfolded by the Decatur scouts since their return from the Valley Forge jaWboree. These boys were oriented in Americana that would have been difficult to achieve in any other fashion and the people of our community will greatly enriched from the experiences of these lads. Scouters, too, will hdVe their day in the sun when they have time to reflect upon trife benefits that were derived frfe® the trip. ■' —43 O plans have been announced for ths Erie railroad-Decatur Daily D jmocrat excursion trip to New y|>rk city.

The special “kiddies lay" is in the planning stage and it will bid fair to become one of the big days of the year. Present plans include entertainment that will please the kids as well as teach safety for our young bike riders. An annual day of this type could* easily become an important part of our calendar for boys and girls. O O Toledo, Ohio, is not waiting until the St. Lawrence seaway is completed to readjust its facilities. Millions of dollars are now being spent for elevators, wharves, transit sheds, etc. Toledeoans expect 72.0 millions of tons of cargo movement by 1975 and are getting ready for new industries that are making inquiries at a “heartening rate." They have - many natural advantages over other Great Lakes port cities and are exploiting them to their fullest extene. Plans such as these are bound to pay big dividends. ——O O The Adams county speech clinic is providing a service to nearly seventy boys and girls in our locality. Rewards will be forthcoming when these youngsters fully appreciate the opportunity they've had to improve their speech. Three full-time therapists plus two other aides have made it possible to care for the large number of students. Psi lota Xi has cooperated with the Adams county society for crippled childreh and adults in this worthy venture and the two groups have done a wonderful service for boys and girls ,in our county, j ——O O The All-star football game which is in the near future is an indication of the return of that great game for another season. The late Arch Ward, sports editor of the Chicago Tribune, inaugurated this series for charitable enterprises in the Chicago area sorfte years ago and it has been one of our sports highlights since that time. This year's game will find the New York Giants supplying adequate opposition for the best from the 1956 collegiate crop. Generally this game separates the men from the boys but there have been times when the script has not been followed. It must be considered as an auspicious start for qnother season so important to many. fl

Estimate Million Needed In Indiana Emergency Loans In Flooded Areas INDIANAPOLIS (UP)—Federal authorities estimated today Indiana will need more than a million dollars worth of emergency loans because of crop-destroying floods and rains. The state Farmers Home Administration estimated in a report to Washington officials that 400 to 000 three per cent loans will be needed. Agriculture Secretary Ezra T. Benson made the loans available Tuesday when he declared 50 Indiana counties a disaster area. FHA officials who cut the number of disaster counties from 65 to 50 estimated the loans would total 1 to IVi million dollars. Governor Handley told newsmen Tuesday farmers who suffered crop damage may apply through the 28 state FHA offices and the applications will be screened through local communities. Loans are available, through June 30, 1958, to flood-stricken farmers who have exhausted local credit Handley also said he will ask the 1959 Legislature to provide funds for local communities who want to "practice preventive control" in flood matters. He said the Flood Control and Water Resources Commission will ! meet Friday to work out a legislative program calling for state aid on a matching basis for dikes, dredging and other control projects.
