The Indianapolis News is selecting the ten greatest Indianians living today. The results will be about as popular us selecting the most beautiful baby in the community. Decorate your home and store for' the fair next week —not so much that tlie fair needs it—they don't for the Northern Indiana is bound to be a big success —but to show the community spirit and that we are alive. The only fellow who needs to, kick himself now because he bought lijicrty bonds is the fellow who traded them for "blue sky" stock. The liberties have now reached a new high level and will keep on going up. The coal baron is getting a greater profit today than he got during the war period and if the five thousand people who profit by higll prices have their way in the writing of the tariff law as against the 110,00(1,000 who must pay, all the rest of them will get their’s.

Congress has discovered that each of the fifty-seven varities of investigations conducted during the past few months have been In the wrong places. Now the senate declares that the failure of the present administrationadmitting it—is due to the fact that the newspapers are fighting them because of the excessive tariff on news print. Perhaps so but how about the clothier, the farmer, the shoe man. the dry goods dealer uud about every

1 one else? So are they. I J - 1 An offer was made to this city yes- . terday to furnish eleven cars of coal, now rolling, at $13.20 at the mine which would mean $17.50 here and the follow who telephoned was told to keep it rolling right on through. The

city is in better condition for fuel thar most cities, due to the fact those in (charge have taken warning and pre pared. However every effort to save 'fuel will be made. The queer thing i is that with the government in charge - how can coal companies furnish coal in plenty, provided we are willing to

' pay the hold up prices. A hundred business men marched in a body to the Chautauqua tent last ,1 evening and listened to the delightful ' entertainment, the big feature being an address by Harry Fogleman, sales director for the Ford organization In Chicago. Some man and some job. Also some local organization which with one days notice turns out such a group of men. The lecture was splendid and worth the effort but the thing which appeals to us most is the fact that our people are working together for the good of the community. In union there is strength and with a hundred business men acting as one, we lare sure to advance. Better service to the customer, quality and quantity were held out as the big things to remember and Mr. Fogleman drove them home with some force.

DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT, THURSDAY, JULY 27, 1922

We feel sure that Harry Fogleman said a lot of good things last night in his business lecture but he went so "ding-banged” fast that we missed a good many of them. We remember distinctly however that be said that organization and cooperation in any com munlty pays big dividends. He said "if you have a dollar and 1 have a dollar and you give me your dollar, 1 have two and you have none, but 11 you have an idea and 1 have one and you give me yours and I give you mine, each of us has two ideas and if fifty men do that each of us have fifty ideas.” Think it over. It’s what we have been trying to tell you for a long time but expressed more effectively.

Next week, thousands of people are going to visit our city and the big Northern Indiana Fair. Many, no doubt, will see Decatur for the first time, and the first impression made upon their minds Is going to stick. Therefore it is imperative and important that we make that first impression a favorable one. To do this we must all get busy, dig out our bunting. flags, and other decorating mater ial which we have stored away, and if we have none, buy some. Every busi ness house and.the residences in the city should be dressed up in visiting clothes during the entire week. If every building is decorated it will show to our visitors that the Decatur people are willing to back any worthy enterprise. Inasmuch as the fair association is not asking the citizens for donations, as is customary in cities where a majority of the fairs are held. •>« citizens of Decatur should, without exception, be interested enough to decorate their buildings. Otherwise Decatur will stand out as a monument of brick and stone to a dead city. The decorations should be put up before Sunday, if possible, because there are always many visitors on the Sunday preceding the opening of the fair Let's show our colors. Please.
