CONGRATULATIONS: The Holland-St. Louis Sugar company congratulates us. We also congratulate them and are sincere in the belief that tney have made no mistake. in selecting Decatur as the site for their third factory and the first' in the Hoosier state. Concerted es- , fort on the part of the workers here has resulted in landing this splendid industry and in reflecting on the merits of those who did the work, we find so many entitled to credit that it is imposible to praise any one without praising all. Not a man but did his best, not a man but did it nobly, sacrificed time and business, and one ol the reasons we won, was because no one was seeking glory or fame or honor, but all were working for the common good of the community. Consequently there were no factions, no sore spots and we are now in better shape than ever in history to do some- i thing that is worth while. "O You Boosters!” You’re the best on earth. We take our hats off to every blessed one of you. With such an array of, honest, industrious boosters we can lick the world, and build up a city, I beautiful, prosperous and good to live “ in. Here’s to the Holland-St. Louis
