[* sincerest thanks. LJ I- " ■li.lf.t'H J The big fair, old home week and ). soldier's reunion opened today, ausf piciousiy. The weather whs bright * and fair, the crowd was large, the on r thusiasm of the right brand and r everything hue. Add to this a pro gram of merit, a clean und high class » display of exhibits, shows and tea » turns and you have an ideal event. ■' The week has just started and every ' day will be a banner one. Get in > ; the game, forget your cures and enjoy > yourself. -I n i The home comers will picnic at the park Thursday evening, Hie idea bong that this will give everybody an opportunity to say hello to everybodv ■lso. The eats should be brought by the Decatur folks and a sufficient supply to take cate of the guests. Slip in a chicken leg or a sandwich for some one else besides the family and help make the event a big. happy hour for every one. It’s the spirit that •omits during such weeks as this and we venture that this occasion will be one of the high spots of the week. The Berne Witness defends the cigirette smoking of Senator Harding by "eferring to the fact that we advised Berne not to overdo the goody stuff Let it be known that we have no ob lections to the use of tobacco but the 'dea of a candidate for president having his picture taken with a cigarette in his mouth does not appeal to us and my defense by the Witness but shows their Inconsistency. As to the family record of Mr. Cox we are willing that you compare? It with that of Mr. Hard ing. If you do you will be surprised in more ways than one. The boys of the old 160th, the company which represented Adams county during the war of 1898, the Spanish-American conflict, gathered here today in their twentieth annual reunion and they are having a good time. Go to it boys, you are entitled to every pleasure we can extend and we want you to know we mean it. These men are now middle aged and the delights of reunion are greater as the years of ’9B slip into the dim past. The boys who marched to the front at that time were of the same brave heart as those who went in ’6l and in ’lB and to all of these patriots we rev erentiy lift our hats for in such men rests the future of this great nation. Boys we hope you enjoyed the day here and will come often. NELSON TYNDALL IS VERY LOW A telegram to John W. Tyndall yesterday announced that his brother, Nelson Tyndall who lives in northern Michigan, is very low and notifying him to come at once if he would see him alive. Mr. Tyndall is with a party in Yellowstone park and it is doubtful if he can be reached by wire for several days. KODAK FINISHING Why send it away? 1 Leave it today— Get it tomorrow.
