The Giants and the Y’anks are Still at it, contesting every inch of the road to the world's championship and the boys are still backing their favorite. After looking through the Congressional Record we have come to the conclusion it wouldn't be such a bad job, going to congress, if a fellow didn't have to listen to all the speeches by the other fellows. So far the election campaign in Decatur has been unusually quiet though the candidates have been doing considerable work among the voters. Plans for the closing of the battle here have not been announced by either party but it is expected some efforts will be made to create the interest necessary to bring out the vote on election day. The dark, rolling snow clouds seen every day or so now should call to your mind that this is the time of . year when you can begin to expect unpleasant and uncomfortable weatb- , er, unless prepared. It you haven't put in your coal, its time to do it, stock up now with fuel and food and you will notice the winter less. The work proposed for the civic department of the Woman’s Club, to prepare a complete history of the war work in this county in duplicate, one copy to be kept here and one at the state house, is important. In the years to come many facts thus ffecorded would prove valuable and the ladies should be given all possible assistance in preparing* this historical document.

Legion, in session there this week. It was a beautiful paper, splendidly supported by the merchants and manufacturers of that hustling city and filled to covers with a sincere welcome to the "buddies” in attendance. The Times-Star is one of the best papers in central Indiana. Editor Rohrer’s answer to the pro test of the American Legion to his editorial is that “they can go way back and sit down." Some day they will convince him that he is on the wrong track. No newspaper of America can afford to belittle the boys who offered their lives in defense of their country and *no man who consistently shows his attitude to be against | upholding his nation’s flag at any cost, can long hold influence. Well have you looked the premises over for some place where you could take precautions against fire? This is the week and every citizen should gladly enter into the spirit of the work. Fire is a terrible and disastrous thing, usually caused by carelessness in not being watchful. A little effect, a few minutes in looking around may bring to light just the thing which if permitted to go on, will result in a conflagration with all | its serious results. Don't think this I is just a joke used to fill newspapers. It's a real effort to save life and property. Yesterday was the final registration day for city elections in municipalities of the first and second classes. In cities of the third, fourth and fifth classes and the towns it was not necessary to register. Any person qualified by residence and other laws may vote in the election hc _ e on November Bth.

1 ' ' the vote is expected to exceed that of last fall's presidential contest in many places. In a number of cities fierce scraps are ou and the results will be watched with much interest. While the Issues are largely local the fact that the two old party emblems are used and the political committee are back of the candidates, makes the election partisan as well as local. FINEST" OF YEAR Months of Oct. and Nov. Are Not So Bad as the Poet Painted SAYS PRES. LUPTOM

Os Hoosier Auto Association — Makes Another Plea for Membership Who remembers the old pre-Vbl-stead ditty which the rounders used to sing: I “The melancholy days have come. The saddest of the year — A little too hot for whisky, A little too cold for beer!” Some poet or other, way back in the old hand-set days (as the printers say) thoroughly “sold" the public on the idea that autumn days are melancholy days, according to A. G. Lupton. president of the Hoosier State Automobile association who in a statement just issued advocates an overturn of that idea. "The general use of the automobile has served to show the falacy of the poet's melancholy phraseology as applied to the autumn season,” declares Mr. Lupton, “and motorists are beginning to learn that the finest motoring time is in October and a good part of November —sometimes this period extends even into December “Just because Hoosierdom has been nipped a bit by Old Jack Frost is no reason for motorists to hasten to get their cars 'up on jacks' for the winter. In fact, in my estimation, there is little sense in putting a car up for the winter at all, for the time to get i the most good out of a car is when the weather is cold or sloppy. “October is now beginning to paint nature in most glorious colors throughout Indiana and in another few weeks the scenery wiil be decorated with incomparable beauty. Now is the time of all the year for motoring trips. The touring bureau in our headquarters office in the Claypool hotel, together with similar bureaus > in our branches at Gary, South Bend. Lafayette. Muncie. Fort Wayne, Richmond and Evansville are all busy supplying detailed routes for fall tourists. This is one service that is supplied gratis to members of any A. A. A. club in the United States and which in turn -is supplied to our members by any other club, anywhere. “With the season now leading Into I winter, we are not in the least slackI ening upon our eivlc work. As rapj Idly as membership gains permit us i to have additional funds, we are extending our pole marking and other direction marking work and from r every section of the state comes demands on us to mark dangerous cross- | ings or other hazards. "If we had 820.000 available we could spend it all in this manner, and we would be glad to do it. But. of i course, our funds come from member- | ships alone and the surest way to ■' p us spread our life saving outdoor work is to come in with your i own and your friends' memberships, i Every motorist who has been outside of his own township this summer 1 knows of the good work of our organI ization. We urge motorists not to I crawl in the hole and hibernate. Get out and enjoy the beauties of nature ' when they are most beautiful.”

JUDGE MORAN WILL HEAR BLACKMAIL CASE Judge John C. Moran was chosen special judge this morning to try the suit of the state against Ivan Jones. Art Godfrey and William C.
