Entered at the postoffice at Decatur. Indiana, as second-class matter. July sales come only once a year and the wise shopper should be taking advantage of the bargains now being offered by the local stores. 1 The public will now watch lue success of Comedian Lew Shank, Rollin 1 Bunch and Don Roberts in tbeir race ‘ for the mayoralty of Indianapolis, 8 Muncie and Terre Haute. These 1 cities will at least get a lot of pub- 1 licity about their candidates. 1 ... ■ -a David H. Blair, commissioner of t internal revenue should have an- I pounced his decision to issue the t regulations governing medicinal beer t one day last week when the tempera- b ture was about 99 and everybody c felt that something was wrong with e him. c I With the driving out of town of those Japs by angry citizens at Turlock, California, it convinces us that 1 the Jap question has not been set- a tied. Japan may take exception to this treatment accorded its citizens h at the proposed disarmament conference, and unforseeu trouble may de- ’’ velop. J ___________ 1 The Bellmont road, running east I from the Monroe street bridge past n the park will be made into a con- r crete road immediately after the fair, t Someone has suggested that orna- < mental light posts be erected along f the road and the suggestion is ( worthy of an investigation as to the t cost and how it could be done. a ———————» , Besides having the greatest crowd r in history at the Northern Indiana t fair, August 2 to sth inclusive, an es- < fort will be made to get all the “Johns” there.

f big picnic to be given in your honor at Bellmont park. . So far congress has done little to help the farmer or the taxpayer. All ■ kinds of promises were made that the federal taxes would be lowered at once and that the farmer would be receiving a fair price for his , crops. As it is now the iurmer is getting about a dollar a bushel for his wheat and plans are being made to raise four billion dollars in tuxes. When a person reads about the conditions in the south and the suffering caused from the epidemic of pellarga, caused by the eating of spoiled foods, he begins to think that this community is fortunate. Crop conditions in this county are good and so far we have not heard of anyone starving to death from the lack of food. Indiana will be greatly Interested In the Illinois case of letting road contracts. Governor Small of that state has let it be known that when bids are received for a hundred miles of concrete roads that no bids for more than thirty thousand dollars a mile will be accepted. This is a thrust at the cement trust that will be well worth watching. Indiana has been building roads at around fifty thousand dollars a mile, and the blame is placed upon the cement companies. The Illinois governor evidently expects to break up this combination, or build no roads. — Bluffton Banner. The chautauqua this week, we believe has been a most successful one and that hundreds have enjoyed the program. Os course every number or every lecture did not please everyone but we feel that somewhere you got your money’s worth. The Independent Chautauqua is less expensive than others, local people do not need to guarantee a profit to the management and we honestly think that Decatur should have a Chautauqua next year. Last evening over four hundred tickets for a Chautauqua in 1922 were subscribed and the superintendent informed the audience that if six hundred tickets were taken Decatur would be able to get as good a program as we had this year. Let's get those two hundred tickets this evening. Those who heard Dr. William S. Sadler give his wonderful lecture at the Chautauqua last evening say that

ft was worth the price of the season ticket. Dr. Sadler spoke on "Fear and Faith” and convinced most of his audience that worry and nervous trouble was caused by the individual wanting to believe he was sick and that he did not huve the power to throw off the worries. A man who worries said Dr. Sadler must have a brain, but he lacks one thing in not being able to forget those troubles when the day’s work is done. You’ll all live longer and enjoy lite more if you work when it’s time to work and play when it’s time to play. Dr. Sadler’s lecture was indeed a most entertaining one and much good was obtained from it. The graduation exercises of the Reppert Auctioneering school will be held Friday evening at Bellmont' park. A class of about thirty-five excellent young men will receive their diplomas as evidence of their sue- I cessful completion of the four week’s
