The senate investigation of th' presidential campaign expenses ha: shown that a few of the multi-mil-lionaires of the country are backing General Wood’s campaign to the limit William Cooper Proctor the soap king with large interests in Mexico and general manager for Wood's campaign having advanced a half million dollars in behalf of the military candidate The question is, how is General Wood going to repay these millionaires? The past year has been a most successful one for the Decatur Public schools. The high school and the grades under the able direction and guidance of Superintendent Werth man, the teachers, the faculty and the members of the school board have made a noticeable progress and we believe that Decatur has better schools than any city of its size in the state. Those who are responsible for the success and progress of the schools can well feel proud of their efforts this year. Tomorrow night a class of thirty eight young men and women will be graduated from the Decatur high school. The occasion will be one of

Straight, talk on Cream Sen’—'* — by LEE HARDWARE CO. DECATUR. IND. v COST —is what you put into a cream separator. VALUE —is what you take out of your cream separator. Value in a cream separator depends upon the amount and the quality of service to be got out of it. Because it lasts fifteen to twenty years, the De Laval is the most economical cream separator to buy. Considenng its cleaner skimming, easier running, greater capacity and less cost for repairs, the price of the “cheapest” machine on the market is exorbitant in comparison. With present high butter-fat prices and the scarcity of labor _ th’ s * s t fuer today than ever before. j,;./' t SiAl® We wou,d like an opportuI' n 1 SflwF nity to talk thia over next g 5 time you are in town I Sooner or later you will buy a BE LAVAL.

the most Important and happiest times of their lives and we join with the rest of the community in congratulating them and wishing them every success that a human being cau accomplish in this big world. Their class motto, “Before us lies the tint her, let us build” is typical of the splendid spirit and determination mibodied in every one of the graduates and we'll be greatly disappointed If we do not see every one of you mild and climb to the top. The world is yours. Os all the down right impudence, i othing we have ever observed com>ares with the brazen attempt of the loodrich press of Indiana to outline or the democratic party the characer of its campaign. We are most olemnly assured in the best excatheIra manner, and without the crackng of a smile that the way to win in ndlana is not to have an issue and bove all to not attack the Goodrich idministration. As nearly as we can igure it out, the republican press vhich, of course, will go the bloody imit as usual to defeat the demoratic ticket, wishes it understood hat it proposes to attack the Wilson administration with every method known to misrepresentation and soph istry; that it will denounce the presilent of the United States, as usual, as a “red,” as a “socialist,’’ as aS ‘autocrat,” as a "tyrant,” as a 'despot,” and a doddering imbecile, tnd as a man who has lost his mind ind must have iron bars put up at he white house windows —and they ■vant it understood that any “back alk” on our part will be considered n bad taste. They also want it mown that it will be very oxensive o them for us to atack the Goodrich idministration. In other words, we nust not defend a democratic presilent, the greatest in fifty years, nor ittack a repubilcan governor, and they are to be given the privilege to ittack the democratic president and to laud the republican governor. As we said in the beginning, for downright impudence this beats anything on record. There is a reason why iliey don't want the Goodrich administration attacked —it can’t be deended.

CASTOR OIL NOW MADE TASTELESS KELLOGG'S TASTELESS CASTOR OIL IS SOLD BY ALL GOOD DRUGGISTS. The chemists of Spencer Kellogg & Sons. Inc., one of the world's largest manufacturers of castor oil. have perfected a remarkable new process by which all taste is absolutely removed from this good old family remedy. Nothing is removed except the taste. Strength and purity are absolutely unchanged. You don't have to shudder when you take Kellogg’s Castor Oil. Doctors have always recommended castor oil. but everyone has dreaded taking it. Mothers can now give children castor oil without their even knowing what they are taking. Grownups will also appreciate this new form of the good old remedy. Kellogg's Tasteless Castor Oil is now sold by all good druggists. Do not accept substitutes if you want a* really tasteless castor oil. Two sizes, 35c and 85c. (Advt) tight—not to a game of ping pong. The democratic party never won a game of ping pong yet—and in Indiana it never lost a battle when it really fought.—Fort Wayne JournalGazette.

GREATEST RACE Motor Speedway at Indian* t apolis Will be Fighting I Place for Small Motor GAS DISPLACEMENT i Will be But 183 Cubic Inches—Less Than a Ford But They Have Speed Indianapolis, Ind., May 27. — The 1 coming 500-mile drive for $70,000 to be held at the Indianapolis Motor ■ Speedway, Monday, May 31st. will be 1 of the greatest in the annuals of this 1 historic classic, according to Barney 1 Oldfield, master driver of the world. 1 who will pace the race. Oldfield is - now at the track along with numerous ’ railbirds checking the performance of ’ each car that shows its radiator on the - brick saucer. 5 For the first time, Indianapolis is giving its sole and undivided atten- ■ tion to a world's championship race in which only small motors can start. t No car in the ra< e will itost of a cylinder displacement of more than IS3 cubic inches nor a weight of less than i 1 1600 pounds. By this reduction the Indianapolis' Motor Speedway management is taking probably the final step in a steady inarch, begun many years ago. The first 300-mile race—in 1911—was open to motors of 600 cubic inches dis- , placement. There are few, if any, such cars now in use. The next step was a reduction to; 450 cubic inches — motors broadly t equivalent to the most powerful and ! [ largest commercially built today. Then came three years of racing in which the maximum displacement was 300 cubic Inches. This figure brought racing motors own to a class typified by such cars as we might call mediumsized. Now comes a racing class still smaller. A motor of 183 cubic inches has actually less displacement than a Ford ' motor. Only few cars on the market would be eligible to this race with stock-sized cars. Yet. if history is to be relied on. •here will be as much speed, and much more excitement tn the coming race, as there was in anv of the memorable contests than have been staged on the . 2'A mile oval. The 45b inch class went faster than the mammoth six hundreds The three hundreds went faster than the big four-fifties. It is a terrific stretch of Imagination for one to geo the cars of but 183 cubic inches Tcitine Ralph DePalma’s reejord cf 89.87 fcr the 500-miles, estab- , lishc'l with his 300-inch Mercedes in

Several prominent railbirds predl't that the speedway record for 500-miles will fall before the attack of the sms cars, spurred on by the I’MWO »P price—to be paid SIOO per lap for ' he driver winning the lap. 1 hey • H 0 claim that the cur that wins will aw erage 90 miles an hour, and will make but one stop-for gasoline and oil and will finish on the set of tires with which It starts. These men point to Durey's 183 cubic inch Peugeot which finished second to Rene Thomas as fa: lack as 1914, averaging 80.99 per hour, and the performance of Hoillot's 150 cubic inch boat which was in fourth place within twenty miles of the finish when ‘i broken wheel dashed it’s chances oiv the bricks.
