Yaney and children returned to Fort Wayne yesterday af-‘ temoon after a visit with relatives at Geneva The voting contest that is in progress at the Crystal for a young lady to take part In a movie play is causing , quite a bit of excitement.

The Masonic lodge are now busy planuing for, the furnishing of the : r new quarters in the Schafer Mock which when done will be #uri>assed by but very few lodges in the state. The lodge room and reception room will be furnished in mahogony. The dance room will he a commodious and well arranged one and the entire floor will be nicely and appropriately furnished. R. D. Myers is the chairman of the committee in charge of that part of the work. He held a meeting yesterdays afternoon with members of s he building committee and details of the finishing work were agreed upon. Farm and Fireside, the national farm paper published is Springfield, Ohio, advises all that can to plant at least one tree this fall. Following is the suggestion: “Twentyfive dollars would plant and care for at least live elm trees for a ten-year period. It is a moderate estimate to say that, at the end of the second year, a building lot would be worth a hundred dollars more for their presence. At the end of twenty-five years no man who owned the land on which they stood would take a hundred dollars apiece for them. Plant an elm or a maple near your home this fall, and look upon it as a hundred-dollar endowment policy, maturing in 1940, with no premiums after the first year. “No one thinks of shade trees as a profitaide crop, and yet, of all vegetable growth cultivated by the hand of man, none renders a more generous return.” In the October American Magazine Jerome D. Travers, present open golf champicn and four time amateur champion of America, writes an article under the title “Heroes of Wood and Iron.” He tells many stories of great plays and players and tells as follows what he considers the hardest and easiest shots to make: “I have heard many debates as to the hardest and the easiest clubs to 1 should say the hardest shot in the game, the one that has fewer masters, is the full iron shot to the green. Running a close second it the mashie pitch. There are fewer golfers by far who can play these two shots well than those who are good drivers or good putters. The easiest shot in golf is the drive, and the simplest is the putt. Hut as putting is almost purely a mental proposition it probublv varies more with all players than any other ‘shot. "You see very lew good sound iron players, especially among the amateurs iu America. In IJugland their iron play is much better.

Here are five ways in which you get fooled in buying paint. 1. The paint is stuffed out with chalk or something like that. 2. With barytes; better than chalk; doesn't “cover;” you don’t know it's there. 3. Benzine, or water, in the oil. 4. Yoo much liquid, whatever it is, tor the solid; paint too thin. 5. Short measure. Here’s one way you can be sure of quality: Devoe Lead-and-Zinc Paint is all paint, full measure; lead, zinc, linseed oil, color and turpentine dryer, and nothing else. THE BEOCK AGENCY

NIGHT COURT NO GOOD. (United Press Service) Chicago. 111.. Sept. 30—(Special to Daily Democrat) Taps were sounded for Chicago's night police court today. After an existence of nine months, the court was ordered abolished by Chief Justice Olson of the municipal court. “It’s no good. The only ones benefitting by it are police men who arrest women drunks and who would spend the night in jail anyhow,” said Olson. “Petty arrests are increased and the operation of the court was a useless burden to the city.” o Miss Velma Rhinehart of Portland arrived in the city yesterday to be the guest of Miss Glenvs Mangold and attend the fair.
