It will pay you big dividends tn cash and convenience. - 1 — Liberty bonds are now soaring and within a short time will be worth from par to several points over that. Yesterday they took a boost of such healthy size that no j one doubts the high mark will soon be advanced to par, in fact, Victories are now at that figure. The bonds have now been secured largely by the great interests and the prices will now be advanced to make them great sums. Those who have disposed of bonds at a sacrifice will remember that they were urged to hold on to them and those who still have them will now profit as a result. Soon liberty bonds will be the best collateral you have and can be disposed of at a profit.

* DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, WEDNESDAY, NOVEMBER 30,1921.

J Lffhisville, K.V-, has 100,000 adults! 1 and the Courier-Journal of that city t is running a series of advertisements 1 for the Louisville Industrial Foundation under the head “Know your I Louisville” with the expectation that : if each of the 100,000 talk and feel that it is the best city in the world they will soon have everybody else believing it. They have raised a million dollar factory fund and this is being used to assist in financing factories which locate there. Its a fine plan and will work. Watch Louisville grow the next few years. Other cities can follow the example to advantage. Wouldn't it be a good thing if the 3,000 adults of Decatur all talked and boosted Decatur and the advantages here? We can do it and we can make progress if we will. Three reports to this office this morning tell of narrow escapes from going over the high enbankmant at the north bridge in this city in the dense fog of last night and this morning. The approaches to this point are very dangerous and the state highway commission evidently does not intend to protect the public by making any improvements. When the matter was called to their attention several months ago they replied that their inspector had reported that the board of commissioners and others interested here were unduly alarmed and up to this time they have made no effort to meet the situation. Something should be done now before the danger is proven by a serious accident and the highway department and commissioners should again notify the state commission. It will cost but little to make it safe and it certainly ought to be done. Not grumbling, Democrat, just telling our voters what is being stored up for them. Wells county can very well, and with good grace, come through strong for either or both of the candidates named, but we had given out the opinion in this county that we were entitled to the representative job without a struggle, and we had to make clear that HUS was not she case. If Wells county gets anything she will have to go to the mat for it. The field is open and she may have candidates for both of the offices under discussion. This county expects to go around two thousand democratic majority in the next election, and with the women voting there will not be much question of a vastly increased majority. We are so big, democratically speaking, in this county that we can well afford to help our weaker sisters and have always been content to do it. Remember, this is the only county north of Indianapolis that w-ent for Mr. Cox in 1920. We’re still croaking and grumbling about that fact. —Bluffton Banner. Correct as to 1920 but given an even chance old Adams will also do her full share in 1922. In the meantime it is important that the strongest men be selected as candidates whoever and wherever they may reside. It should not be so much the location as the men and their ability to win and to represent the district to best advantage. —————— REJECT MONUMENT MADE IN GERMANY Paris, Nov. 30. —The people of the little village of Varangeville have indignantly refused to permit the erection of a monument to their war dead which was made in Germany. After the monument was practically ready for erection the committee was horrified to learn that the granite of the monument was quarried in Barvarian quarries. The sculptor asserts that he made all the designs and the finishing touches were put on in Nancy, but admits that the stone was roughly shaped in Germany. He urged the acceptance of the statute. But the people of Varangeville will have none >f it. » FRENCH ARMY DISCARDS THE BLUE FOR KHAKI (United Press Service) Paris, Nov. 30. —Khaki is to be the color of the uniform of the French'' poilu” of the future.

GAINS HEPGRTED BY BUSINESS MAN Resident of Salt Lake City Adds Ten Pounds While Wife Gains 28 Pounds in Weight. Don J. Perry, 370 Quince St., wellknown Salt City, Utah, business man. in reporting remarkable gains in weight both by himself and his wife, says: "My wife gained twenty-eight pounds and I gained ten pounds in a few weeks by taking Tanlac. The change in Mrs. Perry is all the more remarkable, as she had been going down hill steadily for four or five years. She got no nourishment from her food and 1 don’t belieVe she averaged three hours sleep out of the twenty-four. "While my condition was not as serious as hers, I had been under the weather for some time, had no appetite and was bothered a good deal by indigestion. Tanlac has certainly proved all and more than is claimed for it with us.” Tanlac is sold in Decatur by Smith, Yager & Folk’s and by leading druggists everywhere. Speaking of the present exhibit of calves —some of those that have been reveoled by the short skirts would seem rather to come under the classification of cows.
