THE RESULTS OF ADVERTISING: — “The factories are reopening. Men are going back to their Jobs again. Building aud buying will soon resume their normal activity. Contentment will supplant unrest throughout the land. All to a large degree, because throughout this period of slackness and stagnation one force has remained hopefully on the job. Do you know what that force is? It is advertising. "We will refrain from emphasizing, as we justly might. Advertising's direct services to the public in lowering the price of goods, maintaining quality among products, and promoting correct, convenient valuable, buyerknowledge. We will overlook for the moment Advertising's powerful contribution as a sales factor to the individual success of the business that employs it These things are generally known and realized. They need no particular urging to arouse recognition in the public mind. The great and outstanding fact for laymen and advertising men to grasp now is that advertising, by its own demonstration. i s a valuable and vital factor in the promotion of the whole national good. No man is outside its sphere of influence, it embraces all and affects aIL The layman accustomed to look doubtfully or indifferently upon advertising as an instrumentality solely for the benefit of the fortunate now suddenly sees it as a power intimately and inseparably linked with himself and his own interests. This young and vigorous force has helped

— IF EVERYTHING WENT JUST SO (By Wm. Herschell in Indianapolis News.) If Everything went just so! Ah me. What a wonder-world this world would be; Nothing to do but grin and agree— If everything went just so. No use for lawyers or strolls of law, No courthouse stairway to climb in awe; No one would care what we heard or saw — If everything went just so. Taxes would never be hard to pay. First-of-the-month would be just a day; Debts would be luxuries laughed away— If everything went just so. Chickens would never scratch neighbors’ yards, Children of neighbors would all be pards; No one would lose at Life's game of cards — If everything went just so. Have family dinners and all be there, Each bring a smile and have smile s to spare; Start with a song and close with a prayer— If everything went just so. Clotheslines would never have falling props, Windows would never be smashed by tops; Nobody ever would call the cops— If everything went just so. . a Doctors and nurses we would not need. "Say it with flowers” would be our creed; We'd step on the gas and all show speed— If everything went just so. Never a worry and never a sob. Never an argument, never a mob; But, oh. the folks who'd be out of a job— If everything went just so! v ■■ J 1 —“ — ■ .1 ■ .. . ■ ; ...

P lift business back Into the saddle, the worker back into his Job. “Advertising ha s kept alive hope. 1. It has shamed and shattered pesslmr ism. It has encouraged industry. >■ fostered the gradual recovery of the r buying impulse, and at last created a firm market. Now it will go forward to assist in the development of 8 good business and in the restoration • of satisfactory political and economic 8 conditions throughout the country. 0 “Every man, high or low, who 5 looks out of a period of depression ® into a prosperous and progressive fuj ture. should have a surface knowledge I [, at least of the force that has helped greatly to work the change and thank advertising.”—San Francisco Examinn er. !. The campaign for milk and its products now being made in Indiana by the state board of health and the faci ulty of the agriculture department of 1 Purdue is a worth while one.

Com'i parisons have been made that will | surprise you and all these will be • j shown here during the milk campaign - next March. Its a good thing and de- - serves boosting. If milk is the best ’ food for calves it is also the besf ■: food for children and they ought to I have it first, hadn't they? > • If the drive for Red Cross dues in • i this county tomorrow is a success, a - visiting nurse can again be employed t and who doubts the good of such a -, worker here. Miss Story who spent 1 two years here helped hundreds of - people and corrected ills in the chilt dren of nearly every school. The 1 Red Cros s is needed now more than L ever. Those working for the cause - are giving their time to assist hui manity. Surely you can give your 1 dollar and smile while you do it. -1! iJ 1 « Did you know that more ex-service > men died in the last year than were i killed and died during the entire ■ nineteen months they faced shot and! ■ shell and gas? Have you stopped to ! ■ think that the Red Cross is the only i hope for these brave sons? Think it i over between now and the time the I canvass is made tomorrow afternoon.

Annexed Property is Affected By Ruling (Continued from page on thia property was taken into the city of Decatur would not in any ♦ay render it liable for the tax of another township in which Decatur was partially located. I think this answers the two questions which you have asked, which seem to be in reference to the time when the property annexed should be added to the tax duplicate of the city of Decatur, and as to whether or not this property is also liable to assessment for any part of the M ashlngton township indebtedness. In other words, beginning with the first of March, 1921 the property annexed should be handled exactly as other city property is subject to taxation. As the value of the property is very large we should not wish to have you make an error and if your questions are not fully answered we will be glad to hear from you further. Very truly yours. State Board of Tax Commissioners, Wm. A. Hough. Coro. The following decision was given by Jesse Eschbach, chief of the state board of accountants: November 17, 1921 Mr. Martin Jaberg. Auditor Adams County, Decatur, Indiana. Dear Sir: — Replying to your letter of the 10th instant, we note that the city of Decatur, previous to annexation of certain lands in Root township was situated entirely in Washington township. Since annexing this strip of land, Decatur now lies in two townships, viz: Root and Washington. In annexing certain lands of Root township to the city of Decatur, such lands were not removed from Root- township but merely placed within the corporate limits of the city of Decatur and the people residing within and owning property in said territory annexed to the city of Decatur are now in addition to other taxes as heretofore levied, subject to the tax levies of the civil and school cites of Decatur. Washington township taxes are levied against residents and property owners of Decatur in Washington township and Root township taxes will likewise as heretofore apply to residents and property owners of that part of the city of Decatur which lies in Root township. Very truly yours. JESSE ESCHBACH. State Examiger. May Change Boundary Line The property owners affected by this ruling may petition the board of county commissioners to change the Root-Washington township boundary line, which change would then make the property subject to the same rate as that paid by the property owners in the city of Decatur and within Washington township. Steps may also be taken to establish a separate township, for instance Decatur township or some other name, which territory would include that property in Root township which was recently annexed to the corporate limits of the city of Decatur.
