Hot Weather Relief More than 300 parents and children crowded into the pool at 7:30 p.m. Tuesday night for family night — the largest crowd of the year so far for a family night. Tuesdays and Thursdays the pool is open for an hour from 7:30 to 8:30 p.m. to parents and their children, with a charge of 50 cents a family. During the afternoons and from 6:30 to 7:30 on Tuesdays and Thursdays and 6:30 to 8 p.m. on other evenings the pool is open free of charge to anyone who wishes to swim. During the afternoons and early evenings hundreds have escaped the heat by retreating to the local pool. At times the north end of the i>ool, shallow enough for the smallest children, is so full of kids and parents that it is almost impossible to move. The deep end, where it is less than six feet deep, and near the diving boards, is just as full. More pool space is definitely needed by the city. Several things should be considered. First of all, the water supply should be taken into consideration as it was when the present pool was located. It takes 10,000 gallons of water to raise the pool one inch — 400,000 to fill it. This is a tremendous amount of water. The pool must be located near the source of the water or else huge, expensive pipes would have to be installed to carry the water. When the present pool was built, water was taken from the west side of the river. Now only cisterns are located near the pool. Most of the water today is pumped across the river; this makes changing the water in the pool very difficult and expensive. Second, the possibility of building a pool that can be used during the winter, or at least most of the winter, should be considered. Many such pools have huge removable sections for walls, a roof, and heated water. Third, maintenance of the pool must be considered. It should be planned in such away that neither the building of the pool, or its year-to-year maintenance proves to be a tax burden to the people of the city. As Decatur grows, and as its citizens have more and more leisure time in which to enjoy life, a swimming pool becomes more and more important. Many children would get little or no time in the cooling water during the summer if it were not for the Decatur swimming pool. Parents can help ease one problem at the pool — never send little children by themselves to the pool. An adult or teenager who responsible should accompany every child. With 600 or 800 people to watch, two lifeguards cannot be expected to baby-sit as well.

Overnight lows included 77 at : Evansville, 73 at South Bend. 72, i at Indianapolis and Fort Wayne, j and 70 at Lafayette, and by 8 a.m. 1 the mercury had climbed near 80 everywhere. ■ . , Cities just across the border from Indiana had even higher J readings than Hoosier points. At] Louisville, it was 99. at Cincinnati ■ 97, and even Chicago recorded 94. ] 1 Forecasts called for tempera- ( tures in the mid 90s today and ■, Thursday all around the state ( . with lows tonight in the low and mid 70s. The outlook for Friday wag continued hot and humid. Isolated thundershowers were,< seen as pos s ible throughout the ] period ending next Monday.

Is it always necessary to answer a wedding invitation? A. If the invitation is to a home wedding, it must always be answered. One to a church wedding must be answered only if it includes an invitation to the reception ' following. Q. Is it proper for a man to tell a woman friend that her slip is showing? A. This is quite all right, if there is a place where she can go to remedy it. Otherwise, it might be more thoughtful if he keeps silent about it to avoid making her feel uncomfortable.

LIKE IT HOT? INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The U.S. Weather Bureau at Indianapolis today prepared and sent on its teletype circuit to iarea news agencies the following “news bulletin:” “Weather is often a topic of conversation but a frequent question at present is ‘when, will it cool off?’ “The five-day forecast issued this morning for Indiana indicates temperatures will average 7-10 degres above normal south and 1012 degres above normal north. “Continued hot with only quite minor day-to-day temperature changes. “The 30-day outlook for the period mid-August to mid-Septem-ber indicates temperatures in this area will average above to much above normal. No general relief for the next five days is indicated. “About all we can look forward to in the next few days is that one or more of these scattered thunderstorms will occur in our area and give us some rain and a cool night or so. “Actually for the summer so far we are about average for days with temperatures 90 degres or above. We have had 18 days of 90 derees or more and the averae is 22 days.

Electrical Pioneer Dies At Fort Wayne FORT WAYNE, Ind. (UPl>—Edward A. Barnes, 94. an electrical pioneer who once worked with Thomas A. Edison, died Tuesday night in his home. Barnes was raised in England anc| came to this country around 1884 when he was 19 years old. He went to work as an apprentice at an electric equipment factory in New York which supplied equipment to the Edison laboratories. In 1889 Barnes came to Fort Wayne and was associated with the Fort Wayne works of General Electric Co. He became superintendent in 1893 after installing and supervising the company’s exhibit at the Columbian Exposition in Chicago. After 42 years with the company. he resigned as general superintendent in 1931. In 1918 he helped organize the Edison Pioneers, a group of men who worked with the famed scientist in the 19th Century. Barnes was born at a British Army post in India near the Afghanistan border while his father was serving as an officer. Among his survivors is his widow, Catheryn, to whom Barnes had been married for 65 years.

American Items Are Available To Russia WASHINGTON fUPD—The government invited the Soviet Union today to buy the color television equipment that recorded part of the Nixon - Khrushchev debate at the U.S. exhibition in Moscow. Video tapes of the famous exchange betwen Vice President Richard M. Nixon and Soviet Premier Nikita S. Khrushchev were flown to this country and shown on network television during Nixon’s Russian tour. Secretary of Commerce Frederick H. Mueller, through special export authorization, today made the closed-circuit TV unit available for on-the-spot purchase by the Russians. It includes cameras, cables, consoles, monitors, film projectors and viewing screens and is valued at $220,000. Mueller also made available about 1,800 other American-made items to Soviet buyers, including nearly 1,000 that usully would recould be sold in the Soviet Union. “This trade offer is both a sincere gesture of good will to the Soviet people and a definite opportunity for the Soviet Union and the United States to do business,” Mueller said in a statement. He held the door open for future expansion of trade, too, saying: “The exhibition products are only a relatively small proportion of the wide variety of peaceful goods produced in the United States that can be exported to the Soviet people. “American businesses, in turn, will continue to look with interest on two-way trade with the Soviet Union which is mutually advantageous to both countries.” The list of items available for sale in Moscow ranges from hi-fi sets to modern kitchen equipment. It includes house furnishings, hand and portable tools, radios, a home workshop, pleasure boats, sporting goods, office equipment, farm machinery, autos, photographic gear, dresses, motion pictures, pre-fabricated homes and air conditioners. Auto Is Damaged In Alley Tuesday A local woman driver caused $250 damage to the automobile she was driving when she turned into the alley between First and Second streets from Madison street, and struck a light line pole with her left front fender. Jane Louise Nixon, 24, of Decatur, had the one-car accident behind the Decatur Daily Democrat offices at 3:45 p m. Tuesday. The city police investigated the mishap. No one was injured.

Great results cannot be achieved at once, and we must be satisfied to advance in life as we walk - step by step. — Smiles.
