We welcome to Decatur the Rev. Harold J. Bond and family. Rev. Bond is the new pastor of First Presbyterian Church of Decatur and the Bonds have moved into the manse on Mercer Avenue. Rev. Bond delivered bis first sermon last Sunday and we join the Community in welcoming the new ministerial family to Decatur. We are sure the newcomers will quickly fit into our community life and we wish for them a long and successful stay here. The Bonds have three children. —o o We regret the moving from Decatur of Rev. W. H. Kirkpatrick and family and we know full well their places here will be hard to fill. Rev. Kirkpatrick, who has served the Church of God here for more than four years will accept die pastorate of a new Church at Mitchell. He always has liked Christian challenges and be feels that he is needed in this new congregation. We join the many friends of the Kirkpatrick family in wishing them all continued success. —o O'Gov.

a-— ' — 20 Years Ago Today »-a September 12, 1937 was Sunday. - a Modern f tiquetfe BY ROBERTA LU • , -4 Q. While I was in the hospital for several weeks, our friends and neighbors were thoughtful enough to my husband to invite him for meals anp to send food to our home. Now that ! am home again, what can I do to srow my appreciation to these people? A. You do not have to do anything exeept, when you see them, to second your husband's thanks for their kindness. Q. I have just become engaged to a girl ,and have been told by some of my friends that I am supposed to give her a cedar chest. Is this correct? A. You may, if you wish, but you are not in any way "obligated” to do so. Q. Is.it all right to eat an openfaced sandwich with the fingers? A. When a sandwich is served in “open-faced’’ style, it should be eaten with the knife and fork. Q. Is it necessary to acknowledge receipt of birthday or anniversary cards? A. If you mean by this, a note of acknowledgment, no. However, when you meet the sender of the card, it is always good manners to mention that the card was received and appreciated. Q. How long should one stay when making a call of condolence at a friend's home? A. This call should be especially brief — usually not onger than about ten or fifteen minutes — unless. of course, the bereaved friend asks you to stay longer. Q. What would be the correct way for two unmarried sisters to register at a hotel'’ Q Where should a host’s wife sit when they are taking a visiting couple driving’ A. She and the visiting wife should sit together in the rear seat. No Change COLUMBUS Ohio - « —' The Ohio Chiropodists Association announced its decision not to change its name to Ohio Podia- I trots Association because "a great i majority of the public associates ; 'chiropodist* with 'foot doctor* and aay change at this time would further confuse the issue, . .’’
