PLAN DECORATION
DAY CEREMONIES
American Legion Will
Take Full Charge of
Program

Decoration Day exercises will be
held under the direction of the local
post Of the American Legion as q
result of meeting held Monday
night at the Legion hall. One of the
largest attendances of the season was
present at the meeting.
The Decoration Day exercises, If
plans OF the legion are carried out,
will be one Of the most interesting
and impressive programs given in
this city. A prominent speaker will
be asked to deliver an address and
the ceremonies in remembrance Of
fallen comrades will be carried out
in strictly military style.
| Committees from the Women's
Anxialliary and from other organiza-
tons will be asked to assist in the
arrangements.
The committee appointed in
charge of the Decoration Day pro-
gram is headed by w. C. Allen with
Mark Tuohy. Fremont Kutnewsky
and Will Parkinson assisting.
The Legion plans on military
ball to be given soon in an effort to
raise funds for the purchase Of
post standard. The war mothers
have volunteered to do the needle
work on the colors.
On Friday before Decoration Day
a special program will be given by
the legion to arouse enthusiasm for
the days program among the men,
bers. An elaborate program will be
arranged.
At its first meeting Tuesday the
Memorial day committee Of the Am
erican Legion began preparations for
observing the customs and ceremo-
MES of Memorial day in a more def
mite way than has been the case
in previous years. The committee
will first see that every ex-service
man is notified of the Legion's part
in the days program and invited to
come and perform his share. Eff
forts will be made to work up the
street decorations or individual
stores in some more or less uniform
style.
The help of the women's organi-
cations will be solicited for the i'm
portant task of grave decoration,
which is part of the ceremonies
they have in the past taken care of
and well.
w, c. Allen. chairman of the Le-
gion committee, will confer with
committees of other organizations
desiring to take part in the Memorial
lay exercises, or wishing to have
flowers or wreaths placed on
graves at the cemetery.

some wives object to maintaining a
rest resort for calloused, slab-sided
husband who knows what woman's
sphere is and wants her to stay where
she is put.
If more young people realized that
married life under present conditions
is something which should be tackled
only after meditation and prayer, there
would be fewer contracting parties
ambling up to the ferns and smilax in
pongee silk and the conventional black.
The young man who takes contract
to support and provide with real food
a husky and voracious bride, on $25
per week, should step out and take a
look at the price Of process flour and
beef liver before launching his bark on
the matrimonial sea. There has been
more seasickness among contracting
parties who forgot to figure the gro
Gerry bill as liability Of the business,
during the last few. months, than ever
before in the history of the world. f.4
On the other hand, no young man
and woman should refuse to become
contracting parties If they have health,
horse sense and are not afraid that
they will be worn by work. There is
nothing nicer than married life, when
both parties live up to the contract
without trying to slip in joker now
and then. (COpvrfpit) \

LastNight'sDre
What They Mean
DID YOU DREAM OF sATAN7

THE myStics are not entirely agreed
L as to the significance of a dream
of the devil. Some declare that sim
ply to see the devil in dream signi
fies that you will be very fortunate in
life; others that it is warning OF
temptation. Still others declare it tC
signify that evil influences are at work
against you and that you have false
friends. These two latter omens may
be accepted without discrediting the
first one for a man may be very sue
cessful In life in spite Of temptations
and secret enemies.
Those mystics who put the very
worst construction upon dream of the
devil admit that if yon dream that you
are fighting him successfully good for
tune awaits you. If you dream that he
overcomes you, look out for dangers
ahead. To dream of satan also is a
sign that you will shortly go away from
home for an extended period. To the
maiden 1t means that her departure
from home will be because of happy
marriage in all probability. But If it
is not a happy marriage which takes
her from home it will be some other
pleasant or profitable occasion. But
in any event remember ia your. dream
the Scriptural saying: "Resist the
devil and he will flee from YOU"
A dream of the devil often cited by
the scientists is that Of the famous
Eighteenth century composer, Tartini.
When he was only tweDty-one years
old Tartini dreamed that the devil sud-
denly stood before him. The idea oc-
Cured to him to hand satan his fiddle
and see what he would do with 1t. To
his surprise the devil took the fiddle
and began to play piece of mex
pressible loneliness. Tartini was elat-
ed, transported, uplifted and awoke
with the music still ringing in his ears.
Selling his violin he attempted to re-
produce what he had heard. The re
suit was "The Devils Sonata" which
has delighted so many generations. 1T

rartfni in after years, "but, oh how
feeble, inadequate and inferior COM

INDIANA RESULTS

Johnson and w o O d
Forces Claim Major
ity in Primaries

INDIANAPOLIS, May 4.-Both
Senator Johnson and General Wood
were claiming Indiana presidential
preferential primary Tuesday night.
Returns up to midnight had elimi-
mated Governor Lowden of Illinois
and Senator Harding of Ohio. Low
den was in third place with Hard
ing poor fourth
With returns from practically one
third of the state received, General
Wood had lead of approximately
1000 over johnson. 1t was pointed
out at Senator Johnson's headquar-
tiers that the Californian could east
ly overcome this lead.
Returns from the city of Indiana
polls were coming in very slowly, in
some quarters it was charged that
the returns were unduly delayed.
Returns from the north were that
Johnson was leading by two to one
vote in many thickly populated Sec
tions.
Just as political writer's here in
clined to support Wood were pre-
pared to forecast a plurality for the
general of 10000 from Lake county
to the north came a report of II
OF 80 precincts giving Johnson 1,343
and Wood 267. Such gains as these
are repeatedly upsetting the dope
sters, until they are left founder
ing and confused.
The opinion Of the innocent by
stander that the definite figures will
not be available until late Wednes-
day, and that these will show nip
and tuck race.
Although Wood seems to have In
dianapolis, it is believed that other
cities will offset this lead.

ers than the Dutch Colonial house
While the name, Dutch Colonial, sug.
gests architecture of couple of cen
turtles ago, modern architects have TAX.
en- the beauty Of the old design ant
added to it the comforts and cOnven
fences of the twentieth century.
Exterior balance that denotes the co

architectural school, are about all tina,
is left Of the two types of houses from
which the name is secured. But this
sort Of home is popular, and many hun
dresls of them are being erected in all
parts of the country.
An example of the Dutch Coionia
home is shown in the accompanying IL

tect has specified to be covered wit
prepared canvas deck cloth, maxim
the floors less noisy ana more easil
kept clean. Each of the bedrooms ha
a series of closets adjoining it. Thes
closets are to be equipped with space
saving clOthes-hangers, which save {
great deal of closet space and keep tn,
clothes in excellent condition.
The basement extends under thu
whole of the building proper. Here
are located separate rooms for the
heating plant, the fuel storage, colo
storage of fruits and vegetables, anG
space for the storage of tools and 9th
ef garden and lawn utensils.
One of the strongest attractions Of
this design is that it can be built al
comparatively low figure. The
shape of the house lends itself to eco
nomical construction; the dimensions
are not large considering the number
and sizes Of the rooms, and the mate
rails are medium priced.
One of the first questions that home
builders, or rather those eXpectine
to build, ask nowadays when they look
at a home design is: 'What will 1t
cost?" Building costs are not stable
they are more in one location than in
another, depending on the labor stu
alton, the distance from the source of
material supply and other local condi-
lions. 1t is an easy matter, however,
to get a fair estimate of cost from the
local architect, contractor and mate
rial dealer. All OF these men are in
touch with market prices Of materials
and labor, and can give pretty ac-
curate estimate, If they are convinced
that the inquirer is in earnest.
In this connection 1t will be found
that the Dutch Colonial type Of home
is one of the least expensive types of
homes to build. Also the Dutch Co.
lonial, to the writer's way Of thinking,
Is one of the best, both from exterior
appearance and interior arrangement.
In other words, they give the home
builder the very best in comfort, con-
venience and satisfaction.

lustration. In this design the colonial
balance is maintained both in the ex.
terror and interior. 1t will be noted
by comparing the exterior view and
the floor plan, that accompanies it,
that the entrance hall is placed in the
center of the building; that the win
dows on either side are duplicates, and
that there is similar open porch at
either end. This same balance is car
ried out on the second floor. The
gambrel cut of the roof, and the. long
sweep that the roof makes to the Sec
ond floor sill are graceful. Taken all
together this is mighty handsome
home from the exterior.
This house is of standard frame con-
structiOn, with exterior walls of stucco
over either metal or wood lath. The
dimensions are 40 by 80 feet.
The entrance also is colonial. The
small porch with the fan-shaped win
dows above it is found in the best CO.
lonial designs. Here, the porch is
shown glassed in, but the glass frames
often are removed, especially in the
summer.
1t is the interior, however, that in
terests the women members Of the fam
lily most. How the rooms are arranged
and their size are shown by the

CONTRACTING PARTIES
By HOWARD L. RAM

THE contracting parties is a title
l. given to young people who take
each other for better or worse and are
obliged by the law to sign an agree
ment that they will stand ,hitched.
The marriage contract is not writ
ten out in full like farm lease or a
life insurance policy, hence the con-
tracing parties do not become fully ac-
quainted with its provisions and the
fine print until it has been in opera
ton for some time. 1t is very easy for
a husband to live up to the marriage
contract so long as his wife is willing
to provide for both and allow him to
rest up. One reason why so many mar
rage contracts are shot full of holes
within nine months after the officiating
clergyman has been paid off is because

Where fish are biting free: L
A day or two, meath skies Of blue

I do not ask a hoard of gold,
Nor treasures rich and rare;

And all their haunts Of pride.

To chum with stream and tree

when you are in a crowd and the lights
