Thanksgiving Ahead Next week Americans will ait down to overloaded tables and enjoy big turkey and ham dinners from coast to eoast. In many cases the entire family will be together, in spirit if not in body. While you’re thinking of the good time you will have, have you considered giving a little something for the CROP drive? The Christian Rural Overseas Program provides food for the starving millions of children, women, and men all over the free world, Each dollar given provides pounds of food for the unfortunate, through Christian relief agencies of all faiths. • • e e .•. . ■ « “Victorian" Homes A number of fine homes were built in Adams county in the 1860-1900 perioji, generally called the “Victorian” period. Within a few years many of the remaining ones will disappear. The state historical society plans to commemorate those which still exist by issuing a publication containing 15 or 20 representative homes from each county. Many people realize that this is a wonderful chance for Adams county to bring out its fine old homes, and win a place in the history of the state’s domestic architecture. Mrs. James Halberstadt, Sr., of Pleasant Mills, has called in and informed us of several fine old homes in St. Marys township. Cliff Steiner has a copy of the Berne Witness showing the homes built there 60 years ago. Martin Aumann of north of Decatur has offered to point out the older homes in that area. A number of people are helping with Decatur—real estate men, photographers, etc., who are familiar with the old homes. The Adams county historical society will discuss these homes at its meeting next Tuesday night at 8 p.m. in the Decatur public library. A permanent local record of the homes, when and by whom they were built, should be kept. Pictures and stories about the older homes, with their many pillars, or work around the windows and doors, two-story or three-story construction, deep basements under the entire house, and outbuildings, may help to explain to future generations why such houses were necessary. But comfort and warmth in the winter, and cool temperatures in the summer did exist in homes before the days of gas, oil and electric furnace, air conditioning, plumbing, refrigeration and electric lights and motors. • • • • YOUR BALLOT (Please mail to the Decatur Daily Democrat, Decatur, Ind.; your choice will be tabulated with all those received, and the results printed, if enough returns are received).
