Go over the announcements in today's paper and pick out what you want, if it isn't there ask for it. Kansas wants fifty thousand men to help in the harvest fields, Oklahoma wants 15,000, the railroads are crying for men, all over the country there is a demand for men to work and at good wages. It is time to quit wailing about the times. Go to work. We like this work together spirit that is being shown in the co-opera-tive sale. The community needs it. There has been too much dissension, too much looking for things to quarrel about, too much saying mean things about the oilier fellow. Lets try peace and good will a while and see if •ft does not work better for every one. Several business men who do not have announcements in the big four page extra today, have informed us tliet they did not understand the plan and that they will announce extra bargains for the three big days nex» week. Thats the proper spirit There is nothing secret about it. The mere who help the better it will be foi every body. Get in the game. Help bring trade to Decatur and you are sure to get your share. The progressives of the lentil district have nominated Will Ade, a brother of George Ade the famous writer, as their candidate for congress. They claim he will make the boys step some in that district. Any way the convention which nominated him was enthusiastic enougii to convince most any one that the party has considerable strength left in that section of the state, whether it was so shown in the primaries or not. The postmasters all over the country have been asked to assist in securing men for the Kansas and other western farms where the wonderful crops have made a demand for labor ers even larger than usual. The state of Kansas alone is begging for fifty thousand men to assist them. Evidently the country hasn't gone entirely to the bow wow*. The farms are still doing business. <,□ far the factories and every one else excepting a few polili c ans who would rather have hard times just now than any other con-li |lon.
