Soft, Like Steel From an era when it was natural and necessary for men and women to do a lot more physical labor than we of today comes the continuous attack that present generations are soft. It is beyond argument that many Americans of today are not in top physical shape — and usually it is their own fault. Our way of life has gotten away from the extreme physical exercises of fifty years ago. Neither at work, at play, nor around the house are the chores the work that they were. But toughness is a quality that should not be limited to strictly physical aspects. There is such a thing as mental toughness that the present generations have in quantities unthought of by those of the past — mainly because the problems that make it a necessary part of our life today were not present in their times. Take a lot of housewives, for example. Years ago, the family breadwinner was either out on the family farm, within shouting distance, or a few blocks away at the store, smithy or harness shop. Today, Wives whose husbands have to do a lot of traveling to earn their living realize in the back of their minds that each day could bring on an automobile accident and she would never see her husband alive again. Very few people dwell on the thought, but it is still a reality. Parents also have some things to cope with that were not present in days gone by. The automobile again presents one of those problems, and it is present through most of a youngster's years at home. When a child is young, there is always the fear of an automobile running into him. Then, in the teens, comes the problem of turning him loose in the car by himself. Either way, it presents an added worry. The greatest show of spunk from the present generations comes from their attitude toward the Frankenstein for which they are more or less responsible — nuclear weapons. The young people of today still go about the business of doing their jobs, raising a family and enjoying the social aspects of life; and they do it with a knowledge that at any time, the world as they know it might go up in a nuclear blast. It is not a pleasant thought. Undoubtedly, most people push it far back in their mind. But nonetheless, if any one thfnks on the matter at all, we know that some nervous person in Moscow or Washington might hit the panic button at the wrong time and start something that no one could finish. These morbid situations do not make pleasant reading. They do not make pleasant thinking or discussing, either. The admirable thing about the present generation is that they refuse to be frightened by them. They are realities that have to be accepted, but showing the same toughess of past generations in a different manner, the young people of today make the best of things.

About 50 telephone poles were reported down in the Citizens Telephone Company area. Most serious damage was on the line that parallels Monroe street west to the Kirkland township line. On that a line. 13 poles were down. ' Wires in the Decatur area were coated with a half-inch of ice. , Coupled with high winds, the added weight of the lines, and falling trees and branches, damage was considered minor compared with ' what could have happened. Preble Lines Downy 3 The Preble and Craigville telephone lines were reported heavily damaged, as ice was particularly severe in their areas. g North of Decatur, limbs falling as the result erf high winds caused most of the damage. s Indiana-Michigan reported little trouble in the Decatur area, al- - though their local trouble number was open Saturday and Sunday to take trouble calls, rather than the usual off-duty Fort Wayne number. While driving conditions were bad in Adams county Saturday night, driving was possible. In the central part of the state, driving was impossible because most roads were blocked. Highway 67 was blocked between Redkey and Muncie as late as Sunday noon, but was open by Monday morning. A number of utility lines and poles blocked the highway. - o I Modern Etiquette | | By Roberta Lee Q. Is it proper to tip the carryout boys at supermarkets? A. Yes, especially if you have a large order which the boy has carried out and loaded into your car. I should say that, while the boys don’t expect tips, they certainly appreciate them — especially if they have had to load bundles in very bad weather. Q. I attended a bridal shower and now find that I have been omitted from the guest list at the wedding. Don’t you think this is a rudeness? A. Yes. Since you were one of the persons who were thoughtful enough to grive gifts to the bride at the shower, you should have I

Q. Is a hostess obligated to rise and greet each newcomer to her home? A. Most certainly. A hostess who does not so is rude and inhospitable. Q. Will you please give me some suggestions as to what to serve in the way of refreshments at a bridal shower? A. Sandwiches, ice cream, cake, and tea or coffee are sufficient. Q. At a formal, dinner, do the men and women separate when coffee is served, as they do in England—the ladies having their coffee together and the men remaining at the table? A. In this country, we usually have our coffee together—in the dining room, the living room, or i library.

Icy Road Is Blamed In Two-Car Accident Icy roads were blamed for a twocar accident which occurred on state road, 124, one mile east of Monroe, at 2:15 p.m. Saturday. Drivers of the vehicles were Her Bert N. Banning, Jr., 18, Homestead 38, and Martha Lucille vHabegger, 39, Rockford O. Both vehicles were eastbound on 124 when an unidentified car went into the ditch. The car in front of the Habegger vehicle stopped to aid the car in the ditch. The Habegger woman slowed down when the car stopped and was struck in the rear by Banning. Banning explained to investigating .officer Robert Meyer Adams county deputy, that he saw the brake lights of the Habegger vehicle come on, then go off. When they went off, he proceeded, but when the car stopped, he applied his brakes, which failed to hold on the icy road. Damages were listed at $350 to the Habegger car and S2OO to the Banning auto. COURT NEWS Complaint Cases A motion to make the complaint more specific was filed in the case of Edward D. George vs David Dubach Solano and Merlin W. Habegger. In the cases of Guy L. Koos vs William Lichtenberger, and Fred Klenk, doing business as Klenks, vs. the same William Lichtenberger, on motion of the plaintiffs, the cause was set for issues March 11 at 9 a. m.
