Shoppers are invited to compare prices in Decatur stores with those of any in northern Indiana n and you’ll see why so many people trade in Decatur. O ■ O — High school athletes are getting in shape now for track, cross country and baseball, and Worthman Field and Hanna-Nuttman park will be busy spots again as drills begin. As usual a big part of Worthman field has been plowed up. Seems as if we could get a better system of keeping grass on the field and it then could be used more for the purposes for which it was intended. o o The work at Adams county memorial hospital is nearing completion and should be done in am other 30 days. Work on the sewage treatment plant also is about 30 days ahead of schedule and should* be completed in the next couple of months. These projects have continued right through the winter weather and workmen have lost only a few days because of bad weather. Yost Construction Co. has the major contract for both projects, and that firm has planned the work well. ——o ——o One redeeming feature to the local controversy over store hours in Decatur is the fact that almost every city in northern Indiana is having the same problem. We believe that local merchants are big enough and fair enough that at least a big majority of them will agree on some uniform hours very shortly and then everyone can pull together. If we can’t agree on uniform hours, the shoppers should be notified. Let’s hope this doesn’t have to be done, because we would lose months of work and building in making Decatur the best shopping center in northern Indiana and we are sure' that this can be avoided. Let’s start out after the spring opening with a big majority on the same hours, whatever the majority wants, and you'll see that the few holder—outers will get in line. - t y—-

Let’s all work together to keep Decatur the best city its size in the nation. It isn’t hard but it means constant work and cooperation from all of us. We have a great town and it will continue to be great because we have what it takes to sell people and industry on Decatur. We’ll continue to grow as long as we continue to be the best city in the middle west. o o Unemployment reached a new 16-year high this week and indications are it will still worsen before it gets better. If the administration had started several months ago at the first blush of slackening, the economy of our nation would be in much better condition. Whatever the cause and whoever is to blame can be discussed later but right now let’s get to the solution of it and get the people back to work. o o— Every year as we grow older, we realize more and more the many advantages of a college education and we are thankful to our parents for their sacrifice and. their effort in making us attend and graduate from college. That was some thirty years ago and now each year the importance of a college degree has grown and in a few more years even a college degree won’t be all that is needed in this fast world. Our advice to all young people is to get every bit of education you possibly can while you’re young. o b— More G.O.P. purchasing scandals may be uncovered as the Marion county prosecutor starts again on some new angles of buying during the Craig admmistration. As new phases and angles develop, numerous other trusted G.O.P. stalwarts get nervous. It appears that eventually many of the guilty will be tracked down. Whether they will be prosecuted remains to be seen, but at least one of the vilest and most flagrant steals in the state’s history has been uncovered and we believe some of those responsible will be punished.
