JOHN TYNDALL FOR CONGRESS:— The announcement that John VV. Tyndall has filed his declaration as a candidate for congress will be received with pleasure by thousands of voters and the keenest interest of all in Adams county as well us over the district and state where he is well known. Adams county has never had a can didate for congress, at least in tin memory of the voter of average age and it will be the sincere hope of out citizens in general that Mr. Tyndall be made the choice of his party and that he be sent to congress for all who know him realize that he would soon be recognized and would make his presence felt even in that unwieldy body where it is difficult to obtain recognition. Mr. Tyndall has had considerable experience in public life and knows how to do things. He knows what it is to earn a living on the farm, he is a

business man of more than avorag

ability, he is a manufacturer of no mean limit, he has had the experience of years in battling successfully against the world and he is just the man to be sent to congress at this time when so many men entrusted with the duty seem to have forgotten just what their errand to Washington is.. He will be opposed for the nomination by two men who have already announced. Hickman Mellette of Anderson and Claude Ball of Muncie. Both are excellent men but we contend that Mr. Tyndall should be named because of his experience, his ability as a campaigner and the fact that he can accomplish things. As county surveyor, city engineer. State senator and in all public places to which he has been called he has returned to those who trusted him. full measure in service for the confidence thus reposed. John Tyndall—Honest John as we know him here —is the right man for the place, big enough for the important job and deserving the unanimous support of the voters of Adams county and his proportion in the other five counties of the district. We believe the public will recognize these facts and that he will be nominated on May 2nd and elected to the national house of representatives next November 7th. . Pearline was once known to every housewife, but where is the house wife that thinks of Pearline today? The chances are she never heard of it. er will have to stop and think just what Pearline was. When the manufacturer of Pearline died, as the story in the advertisement was told, those who succeeded him thought that it was so well known that it did not need any further advertising. “People

A STATEMENT BY W. J. ARCHBOLD

Editor Democrat, Decatur, Ind. Dear Sirlt will be very much appreciated it you will allow me to saj a few words through the columns o' your paper to my friends. Friend ship is one of the most valuable assets that a man can possess. It eves becomes sacred when you hold it too valuable to commercialize. This is my attitude toward my friends ol Adams county. I have been requested to place my name before the democratic voters for county treasurer during this coming primary, but feel it impossible because of business plans I am making for the future. 1 really enjoy being in a political contest when I can fight for a principle instead of for selfish ends. There never has been a time when the politics of Adams county were as clean

know all about it, und what is the use of further expenditure," they argued. There are bualneaa men everywhere who often take the same view of their situation. They argue that the advertising they have already done has caused the people to become well acquainted with them. "The peopleknow where we are," they say, und so they snuggle down Into the cocoon they have bullded—and in a few years, sometimes not that long, they are forgotten. "The fact of the matter is." said a Decatur business man to us a short time ago, "If you bet business today you have got to go after it. And one of the best methods in the world is to advertise for it.”

The Chicago crime commission has been making an investigation of the theft of automobiles. It finds that the majority of cars are stolen between

tlie hours of 7:30 p. .m. and midnight, with the crest of pilfering developing arond 10 o’clock each night. By far the greatest number of machines are taken, not for their value, but to be used in various forms of law-breaking The findings of the commission also show that auto owners do not take the same edgree of care of property in this form that they do in others.. A man or woman with a *1,500 or S2OOO investment in something besides an auto usually gives it closer attention than they do a machine that costs that much. And yet no other property can disappear as quickly.. The auto is here one minute, but in the hands of a clever thief it is 60 miles away in a couple of hours. And once gone once repainted and changed around, it is hard to recover. Therefore, guard your auto carefully, for the auto thief is just as apt to turn up in Decatur as he is anywhere else. . -

Luther Burbank, plant wizard, was 73 years old a few weeks ago. and h< took occasion to preach a splendic little sermon that every reader of the Daily Democrat will do well to remember. "I am convinced said the creator of new plants and trees, “that the same treatment and care necessary tc the highest development of plant life is also essential to the highest delevopment of human life. I am speaking of the boy or girl who is reared in the only place that is truly fit to bring up a child or a plant—the country, the small town —for the nearer to nature they are brought up the better it will be for them and for the great world of which they are to become a part. In the successful cultivation of plants there must be absolute honesty.. You cannot deceive nature or thwart her without the consequences falling back on your own head.. So be honest with your child.”

SEARCH IS MADE (Continued from page started by a Nickle Plate brakeman, who said he had seen what he thought was the body of a woman lying in the weeds near the bank of the river. He saw this last F riday. he reported yesterday. MORE CANDIDATES FILE Indianapolis, Ind., March 28. —(Spe cial to Daily Democrat) —Nineteen candidates filed declarations for candidacy in the primary May 2 with the secretary of state today. Those filing include: John W. Tyndall, Democrat, Decatur, for congress from the eighth district. Joint W. Waggoner, Republican. Hammond, for representative from Lake County. Howard M. Hobbs. Democrat. Ft. Wayne, for representative from Allen county.

-•- • is at present. Hence this takes part 5f my political thunder. I am only thinking of county affairs. There never was a time when the issues of state and nation needs renovation worse than they do now, but I do not think that my candidacy for county treasurer will elucidate the issues of state and nation. I do not believe that I will sacrifice the friendship of a single person by staying out of the race. Therefore. I have concluded to stay out,. although the water will be fine this fall. I expect to support the principles of democracy in the future, with all the rational zeal that I can muster, but will be content to do it from the standpoint of right and not to promote selfish ends. Yours respectfully. W. J. ARCHBOLD.

e / f/f „ . r r C r ¥ c L) • I . awPOWDER QUESTION SOLVED QP Most housewives pro•claim that the baking powder question was solved for them the moment they used the first spoonful of Calumet. After that no doubt remained—no hoping—no searching for a perfect leavener—no wondering if bakings would “turn out all right.” CALUMET SAKING POWDER has solved the question because in all these thirty years it has never failed to produce wholesome and appetizing foods at an economical cost. It is as pure and sure as any baking powder ever made. Calumet is more economical than other brands selling for less because its quality is the highest—no tosses from spoiled bakings. Use Calumet once —that's enough to prove to you that it’s "best by test." A pound can of Calumet contaice full I 16oz. Some baking powders come in ! 12os. cans instead of 16 oz. cane.

The People’s Voice "IN TWENTY FOUR” Says Harding to Wilson, one day In a chat: "Thu Laborers are living entirely too let; They get good wages, und wear good clothas; Too independent, the Good laird knows. "You've been here a full eight year. And labor troubles always "seemed” near; You helped raise wages, .and gave relief. Which you must know is 'gaiust our belief. "The eight hour law you brought about, Which made the “big man" puff and pout To think he had lost his any As to how much work and how much pay. “When I'ni elected, I’ll bring about A decided change—When you are out We ll shut down mills and cut off crews Till we have more men than we can use. “We'll pay less wages to working men: Work longer hours—not less than ten We'll certainly put them on the hike When we pass laws that they can't strike. Wilson said: "I hope never to see Men bound down whom I set free. You'd bind men down with fetter and chain. Who have been free since Father Abraham’s reign. "We remember when from Egypt's land Moses lead the Israelite band; Taking them from Pharoah's host, leading them to the Red Sea coast. The water parted under pointed rod. Which was guided by the hand of 1 God. And stood like a wall from coast to coast, But closed in upon Old Pharoah's host. "By inspiration it came about, For me to lead our people out From under the load of Wall street 1

sin Which for fifty years they had traveled in.. “We traveled on till we reached the sea. When dazzled by gold and panoply. The people were weary and sat to rest Proving unable to stand the test. “Soon they were lulled into profound sleep. And before they crossed the mighty deep Up came the guards with a stronger chain And bound them to Wall Street again. Four years of poverty lie ahead— We shall hear our children cry for bread. But with patience we'll bear it as before. And we’ll get their hides in Twentyfour. —W. A. ORE, Clendenin, W. Va. “SOME ADVANTAGES” As one of your citizens interested in the greatness and the future security of America. I wish to call attention to the following from a leading student of good schools in Indiana. In striking contrast to the 500 oneroom schools remaining in Indiana, the the 1000 consolidated, effectively organized schools.

‘'The consolidated schools may consist of any one of the three groups: (1) a school of two or more rooms for the elementary grades in the open country, to which pupils from one or more abandoned schools are transported; (2) a school in the open country which accomodates pupils in both the elementary grades and the high school, .most of which are transported to the schools from abandoned distircts in the township; (3) schools in small towns which accomodate the pupils from abandoned districts in the township. Consolidated Schools' Advantages "In the properly built consolidated school there are many advantages. The school ground contains from two to five acres. "The light Is admitted into the class rooms from the left side. "There is an even distribution and proper regulation of heat by a furnace or by radiation. “Ventilation is provided by a large fan driven by steam or electricity which forces the fresh air into the room and the foul air out of the room; or by means of the fresh aid duct# unIder radiators and foul air flues especially arranged for good ventilation. "Drinking fountains on • each floor furnish a good supply of -water. “Sanitary, indoor toilets which are properly heated and ventilated are installed in the school. "There is a community room which is used for public meetings and for physical training. Commencements Tyceuip attraction?, farmers meetings . agricultural shows and exhibits, school I entertainments, the opportunit y for

(childrens play, the teaching of physl- ' cal training and basket ball, comprise I the usefulness of this room." I “In some buildings one room is built for physical training and another room known as an auditorium, for pubullc meetings. "A room for teaching cooking mid > sowing is always included, and there is another room for teaching agricull I ture or manual training. "In many of these schools full-time 1 teachers are employed for agriculture. Sometimes full time home economics teachers are hired. Under trained ' teachers such as these, boys and girls do good work in subjects which cause ■ them to bo interested in farm life. Rut the greatest advantage of the ■ graded and consolidated schools is their efficiency. The work of both pupils and teachers is not only more effective but better in grade or quality as well as in the tent or scope. The teacher has the time for better methods firmly established by the principals of psychology and pedagogy; has time for supervising the study of the pupils thereby establishing the proper habits of thought instead of fixing improper methods of thinking, has time for thorough and extensive work in fundamental subjects so that the pupils complete the elementary grades in about two years less time than in the one-cylinder schools. What is a year of the child's life worth? What is a year of your life worth? Has a child any right at all? He has, among other privileges, the. right to as good living as he can make, to good health, a rapid and thorough progress, a right to thorough preparation to fight the battles of life with a fair start and equal chance with his mates and competitors. He ought to have the training and ability to go into the world to meet on fair and equal terms the problem of paying the greatest war debt ever handed down to a rising generation: a debt which you and 1 do not expect to pay. I for one am willing to go without even some of the necessities in order that the greatest and the boys and girls in the world may have what they deserve and they deserve best.—AMERICAN CITIZEN GOOD FOR THAT "FLU” COUGH For quick relief from the wearing coughs that "hang on" after the grippe or influenza, take Foley's Honey and Tar. Mrs. K. D. Drake, Childs. Mr., writes: “After an attack of the flu that left me with a severe cough nothing seemed to relieve me till I tried Foley’s Honey and Tar, which I can highly recommend." It is also good for croup, whooping cough and colds. It puts a soothing.healing coating over the inflamed surfaces, cuts the phlegm, eases hoarseness, clears the air passages.

Now—as to economy ECONOMY is not only a matter of saving. It consists also of spending money to best advantage. You can often add materially to the effectiveness of your purchases by reading the advertisements in this paper. Advertising identifies goods of unquestioned value. When a store or a manufacturer puts his name on a product and tells you about it, you may rest assured that it is worth while. It does not pay to advertise merchandise that is not sound. The come-backs are too costly. Make a practice of reading advertisements. Read them as news from the business world, published for your benefit. Sometimes, they keep you from making an unwise purchase by pointing out just why one article suits your needs better than another. A step toward real economy. f Often, they help you live better and dress better and make more of your income in every way. Also, real economy. And you will find that they frequently save you money. I!. Economy, certainly!
