While you are enjoying the wonderful programs al the Chautauqua remember that it is being made possible by the efforts of twenty-five or thirty local men who are giving their time, buying their tickets the same as you and in addition will pocket a loss the first year- They deserve your genuine and earn’est support that the independent Chautauqua may contine from year to year and improve. I’t your affair. Help make it | a success. Os course the Chautauqua is not as pleasant as it would be if it could have been held in a tent, of course there are things that can be objected to it that’s what you are looking for, of course we expect to make the I next ofie more comfortable and better in many ways, but if you forget these things and just enjoy the feast of wonderful entertainment provided ( you will get the biggest two dollar's worth of education you ever had the opportunity to buy. Those people who are passing up Chautauqua this year are losing some real stuff- Every event js the highest class that money will buy and the program for the rest of this week is so good that we regret that every man, woman and child in Adams county cannot hear each and every entertainment. You are the only loser if you fail to get the opinions of these great men and to hear the tai-, ent of music and reading. As Dr.l Lohr said you do not need to believe or approve of everything that is said i but it will not hurt to hear the great, questions of the hour discussed by . men big enough and able to do it. Dr. Charles F. Aked. England’s | greatest preacher addressed the chau- | tauqua last night. That he is able. I a typical Englishman, a man of decided opinions and the courage to express them is recognized. His sub-1 ject, David Lloyd George, one of the I outstanding figures of world history, | ■was well handled and those who heard : this great man were delighted to: have had the opportunity. Dr. Aked knew George when the latter was a lad. has known him during all his remarkable career and was the first man to predict that he would become prime minister of England though at" the time, fifteen years ago. that statement was declared impossible of com- : ing true.

jMIOME service news item VAt the government's request the Red Cross is taking care of I claims of soldiers, sailors and marines. Home Service sections are the departments to which this work has been assigned and in every locality where there are home service groups, the workers are kept busy handling queries concerning compensation, vocational training, medical and institutional care, Liberty bonds, insurance and other matters which may trouble a soldier. Home service sections of the Lake Division through ptheir monthly reports show that work for them is increasing with the number of men demobilized. All service is, of course, rendered free. • • * • “Back to the Farm” is growing to be more than a mere phrase these days. Soldiers, sailors and marines who have, had a taste of our-door life are loath to go back to indoor jobs and are turning their thoughts to the open country and farming. For this reason, the Lake Division. American Red Cross through its 357 Home Service sections has prepared a list of addresses from which information along these lines may be obI tained for the asking. Men interested in the government’s reclamation plan should write the office at demobilization camps. Harvest , labor is being hired by the U. S. Employment Service in Kansas City, Mo., and F. E. Frizzell, labor specialists. Larned, Kan. W. P. Schneck. farm service bureau, department of farms and markets at Albany, N, Y„ is in charge of partnership ownership employment. CASKET OPENED HERE The casket containing the body of Cornelius Rademaker will be opened I at the St. Joseph cemetery in Decatur for the benefit of his many friends here who cannot attend the funeral in Fort Wayne. The funeral will be at 8:30 Thursday morning from the home and at nine o’clock from the St. Peter’s Catholic church of Fort Wayrte, after which the body will be brought here for burial. i Frank Kintz, who is quite ill •of tuberculosis at the home of his par1 ents, Mr. and Mrs. G. F. Kintz, re- [ mains the same. His illness results as after-effects of the flu. He came here recently from a large sanitarium in Arizona. I I Frank Sholty, of Fort Wayne called ' on his brother. B. W. Sholty and fam •' ily yesterday. j Mrs. C. L. Meibers and daughter. Tonk, were Fort Wayne visitors today. Mr. Harmon went to Fort Wayne this morning. ' shold have added however that the ! man must be a republican for their , record in boosting democrats has been about zero during the past dei cade. They delight in talking about ; a “ring” in Adams county though | they know' full -well that for fifteen ! years past the democratic nominees have been selected by primarr s and that those primaries have been as fair ! and honest as it is possible to make i them while the republican nominees have been selected without opposi- : tion and urged by persuasion after party caucuses have been held. The simple statement that a paper is independent does not make it so necessarily and by all the evidence of the past, it would seem that the Witness is deserving of any share of the legal i printing which the law gives to a republican paper in Adams county. j However they should if they wish to i be' square with themselves and the ' public announce their politics and i quit dodging. Every one knows it and we doubt if they are fooling any ! body unless it’s themselves. i J
