Hosey is giving the men who have opposed him for twenty years a real race tor mayor in Fort Wayne and just now seems to have them all on the run. including the News, the black cat and Mr. Gillie. The best indication that times are improving is the fact that advertls ing contracts from foreign firms, is on the increase. It’s a barometer that never fails and as it gets results general conditions are sure to improve. It may be a little unfortunate but *. does seem that the fellow who «nows just how your business ought to be run, how to farm and keep Store and build communities, is always on the lecture platform, and can only aid by giving advice. It would be so much better for all of us if he would demonstrate by actually performing than by just telling us how. Even threats of a general railroad 'strike faits to alarm our people nowlike it did a few years ago. Os course it would be a serious matter and would cause a terrible set back but. we would go on much better than a few years ago for there would be millions of automobiles and trucks im-I mediately put into use. This would largely take care of local shipments and there would be but little suffering if any. But just the same we, hope the men won’t strike.

Do you know what constitutes a strong constitution ? To have sound, healthy nerves, completely under control, digestive organs that are capable of absorbing I a hearty meal, means you have a strong constitution! Your general attitude is one of optimism and energy. But an irritable disposition, frequent attacks of indigestion, and a languid depression, indicate your system is not in correct working order. Probably you are not eating the proper food. « Probably the nutritious elements are not being supplied to your system in the proper way. Grape-Nuts is the wholesome, delicious cereal that promotes normal digestion, absorption and elimination, whereby nourishment is accomplished without auto-intoxication. A mixture of energy-giving wheat and malted barley comprise the chief elements of Grape-Nuts. A dish at breakfast or lunch is an excellent, wholesome rule to follow. I You can order Grape-Nuts at any and every hotel, restaurant, and lunch room; on dining cars, on lake boats and steamers; in every good grocery, large and small, in every city, town or village in North America.

1 Each one cent levy of state taxes raises $580,000. It you multiply that by the new state rate which it Is now . said will be about twenty-five cents, , you will find the total of money raid- - ed by the state is u flue large sum. For general purposes such as the paying of salaries and expenses the levy is but one cent ron the rate which while apparently small raises nearly six hundred thousand dollars. Roscoe Arbuckle, alias Fatty, will stand trial on a charge of manslaughter for the death of the beautiful actress, Virginia Rappe. That he caused her death but without Intention to murder seems - the result of the investigation and this

? is probably correct. He will be tried I next w’eek and the sensational case I wiN soon be a matter of history. Ari buckle is through with his career 1 and no longer will be a hero of the Him, let the results be what they will. The way of the transgressor is hard and the wages of sin the same now is in olden times. The state tax board, alarmed by the incessant complaints, announce they will try to hold the state levy inside of twenty-five cents, an increase over this year’s levy of five cents on the hundred which is some boost in actual dollars and cents thus raised. The state tax will raise about fifteen million dollars for the boys to juggle. Governor - McCray, to his credit it should be mentioned has made an effort to keep his campaign promises and reduce the taxes but the demands of the highway commission and the appropriations from the last legislature have evidently made it impossible, so to do. The five cent boost is considered a jolt for the governor for he made considerable , flourish about his firm intentions to reduce the tax. - The temper of the people is shown .

be no objection. An amendment covering taxation, and another permitting a state income tax, were defeated overwhelmingly. There was no partisan question involved, of course, but the vigorous negative vote shows

that the people are In a rebellious mood. They are ready to say "No,", to any suggestion put forward by the politicians. It is therefore, a poor time to propose further regulations or taxations, to add to the burdens of the citizens. Folks in office, who hope to be returned to place and power may very well take cognizance of the prevailing temper.—Farm Life Decatur is a mighty good town in the best county in the state of Indiana and you will admit it if you compare it to other cities and counties. Some times we may get to thinking that we have less and pay more in taxes buttthis is not true when actually figured out. Adams county has the best roads in the state and they were built at a less cost than any we have found, Decatur and Adams county have wonderful schools, this city has paved streets, an excellent power and water plant, good fire protection and is the best trading point of any city of 5,000 in the middle west. Improvements cost money and must be paid for in taxes. When you get down to hard, cold facts, you will have difficulty in establishing any proof that money has been wasted. It's a good thing to think this over once in a while. ARE HARD AT WORK (Continued from page' one) to hold a preliminary, conference on the Far Eastern situation with the United States and Japan in London, a plan which was finally dropped because of Secretary Hughes' insistence that there be only one conference, and that that he held in Washington. 2.—Japan's hesitance to agree to a discussion among all the powers, in the conference, of problems in the Pacific and Far East, where Nippon holds she has a special position. In accepting President Harding’s formal invitation to the conference, Japan noted reservations to the proposed discussion of Pacific and Far Eastern problems, and this question has not been completely settled yet.

FOOTBALL RULES Indinnupolls, Sept. 29.—(Special to Dally Democrat).—With the few early season games out of the way, football starts in earnout thia week. Saturday, October 1. Each section has Its important games, and of course Interest in the Hoosier state centers in three big games on that day. These are Notre-Dame, DePauw, Wabash- Purdue and Indiana-Kalamazoo. Besides these games Franklin will play Detroit University at Detroit. Mich., and Butler meets Dennison in Ohio. The slight changes in rules from last year are made in such away that It is easier for the spectators, the players and the officials to really understand the game. The first four changes made in the rules were for that purpose. The element of fairness also entered the changes, lb - the case of a safety the hall I* brought out to the 30. yard line instead of the | 20 yard line. This gives the team • against whom two points have been scored a better chance to force the . ball away from the goal line that team is defending. After the touch-back ( the ball is still brought out to the ( twenty yard line and put in play. , An important change is the divid- ( ing of section five of the rules on ( “unnecessary roughness” and making t it plain from where the fifteen yard t penalty shall be enforced. ' While these ate the few changes in the rules proper, have been a long list of approved rulings added to the end of the rules A few years ago the rules committee started publishing approved measures in connection with the football and these have been added to until now the list seems complete. These are a great help to the officials and make it possible for the game to be far more interesting to spectators. An example of what is called an approved ruling follows: “If, on a kick-off, an off-side play is called and the ball goes out of bounds play shall not count against the kicking team and they shall still have a second chance to kick." , There are now thirty-two of these rulings and five approved ground rules. This is about four times the number of approved measures that appeared in the rule book last season. The “approved rules” are simply interpretations placed on the rules and it makes it possible for all officials to rule a play in the same way. It also makes football more interesting to the spectators. Twenty Boilermakers Try for Cross Country Team. Lafayette, Ind., Sept. 29. —In response to Coach O'Connor’s call for oss-country candidates last week, twenty Purdue men are now working

out dally under the direction of the vouch und Ca.pt. Harrison. Seven vetrrant of last year’s squad are out in uniform and a number of promising recruits from the 1920 freshman team lead Boilermaker fans to hope for a conference championship, Isist year O'Connor's men finished third. Richard Harrison, a junior from Mandtiu. N. L.. Is lending the harriers and is one of the host long distance men to wear the Gold and Black for years. Furnas, member of the 1920 Olympic team and captain of the cross country squad las» year, is showing good form in tho workouts and with Harrison should form a hard pair to beat. Magruder, Murphy, Goodman, Dye and Pease of the 1920 state champions are being hard pushed by a number of youngsters, prominent of whom are McCabe and Terry. A meet has been scheduled with Michigan to be run us a preliminary to the Ohio State-Michlgan football game at Ann Arbor October 22. A tentative date with Illinois has also been carded. The Boilermakers won from both of these squads last year. The state meet will be held here Nov. 5, and will be run just before the homecoining game with Northwestern. The conference meet is carded for Bloomington, Nov. 19, the day of the annual Punlue-lndiana football clash. Workouts for the past week were of the light variety but intensive training for the approaching inerts will begin this week. While Coach O'Connor is not predicting the butcome of the season's schedule, he feels that he has the material for a team that will come through in good shape.
