DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT TUESDAY. JULY 30, 191 S

Mrs. D. M. Hensley went to Fort Wayne this morning. The county commissioners will meet in regular session next Monday at the auditor's office, it being the August session of the board. Wednesday will be the last day on which to tile bills. Who remember# when only little children stole sugar? "It wouldn’ surprise me a blamed bit if President Wilson took over th' dentists," said Tell Binkley, t'day.—Abe Marlin in Indianpoiis News Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Mount and son, Marker, have returned from a several days’ motor trip. They visited with their parents and other relatives and fidends at Windfall. Kempton, Frankfort and Fairmount. A number of boys and girls enjoyed a picnic in the Harting woods Sunday a fine time being reported until the cloud-burst came which forced the party to seek shelter, other than that afforded in thy woods. Mrs. Mabel Allison and daughter, Luella. of Indianapolis, are here visiting with Decatur relatives. Her husband, Bob Allison, who is in the employ of the lumber department of the government, is in New Orleans. ’ W. T. irelan. of Albany. Indiana, an , old newspaper man is here planning to publish a republican weekly paper , to be known as the Adams County Rej üblican. He is using the Herald plant but expects to move his own outfit here within a few weeks. The war maps ami bulletins posted i in the windows of the Daily Democrat i office are for the use of the public 1 and we invite you to stop and look them over. You can keep yourself ' posted on the war news by referring ' to these maps and reading the bullet- ' ins. Adam Carpenter and daughter. Jennie. of Fort Wayne; and his nephew, Wesley Carpenter and daughter, of Cecil, 0.. relumed on the 2:20 car yes terday afternoon to their homes. They visited here with their brother and uncle. Jesse Carpenter and family of South Eleventh street. Postmaster J. W. Bosse gives the following list of uncalled for letters at the Decatur postoffice: 1. O. Bowers, Supt. James Crawley. Mr. A. Feenstra, Mr. Wm. H. Harrison, Jacob Gage, Chas. A. Johnson, Miss Velma Springer. Bell Schnepp, Ira Martz, A. J. Shoemacher, Mr. F. E. Hanz. Mrs. H M. Romberg and sister. Miss Lena Weber, of Fort Wayne, were here yesterday with their brother. John Weber and family. They came for a visit with their nephew, Leo , Weber, who was at home from We it-1 Point. Ky, on a short furlough. returned to camp last evening. The union services at the Reform- , ed church Sunday evening were large i ly attended and were splendid. The . sermon by Rev. Hanna was one of the , best ever delivered in the city and' the crowd was inspired by his words. , The music was excellent and the meeting was thoroughly enjoyed. A letter from Robert Peterson who is attending the officers training camp at Camp Sherman, near Chillicothe. Ohio, tells of a strenous week in the trenches during which he went three, days and nights without sleep, work ed at high pitch all the time and for twenty-four hours waded in water almost hip deep. The training is becoming more severe with each camp and the boys are sure enough ready for business when they finish. The local military board is expecting to receive within the next few days the county's quota of the August draft call, which according to instructions received from State Conscription Agent Major Robert C. Baltzell will be as large and possibly larger than the July call of forty-four men. The August call will exhaust class one. excluding the 1918 registrants. It is possible that a few of the twen-ty-one ( year old registrants will be called to fill the quota, if it is as large as expected. “Is any man safe from a marriageable lady?” asks the Crystal theatre, at which the new William Fox production "All for a Husband," shows tonight. According to the story of the picture, no man is. when the lady has the beauty and charm of Virginia Pearson. As a matter of fact, almost any man would be willing to place himself in the same fix as Henry Hardin, of the photoplay, merely tn order to have Miss Pearson act as a pursuing angel. In "All for a Husband" Mr. Fox. and his director. Cail Harbaugh, has given the picture-lov-ing public something entirely novel. There is an unexpected ending; and the story is concerned with a multitude of sudden complications which leave the btain in a whirl at its rapid action. No one can do justice to the plot merely by telling it. It must be seen to be appreciated. When the picture cuds, affairs are so complicated that one fears they will never bo straightened out. But there the cleverness of the director and his interferes, and matters come to an unusual conclusion. |

A report that several Adams county boys would pass through here on a troop train over the Clover Leaf at 8:45 last evening drew a big crowd to the station. A train dashed through at that hour but if there were any local boys on they could not be recognized. Just the same the soldier boys, traveling under sealed orders, were cheered on their way. Many if the crowd waited until after midnight for a second section of the train. -— Democrat W ants Ads Pav
