The Fort Wayne News gives Decatur an edftorial boost and urges their Chamber of Commerce to attend in a body. Come on boys. We are saving you a place in the parade. The News said last evening: “Decatur, Indiana, is making a strong bid for the establishment at that place of an orphanage by the Yeoman lodge. A great Yeoman demonstration is to be held in Decatur next week and it would be a splendid idea for the local Chamber of Commerce to send a big delegation to the metropolis of Adams county to study at first hand really intensive community co-operation. It would be a great object lesson for the Decatur people have got togethei without a dissenting croaker among them to bring this great institution to Decatur.

Again we suggest that Mr. | Bodine invite Fort Wayne citizens to accompany him on a trip to Decatur >to participate in next week's demonstration as humble students of real I community co-oporation.” '“I ■ IT 'i ' You must register this year if you wish to vote in November. It is more important than usual that you register this year for this is to be a permanent registration and hereafter you will not have to register unless you move into another precinct when you will have to transfer. The first registration is September Sth and it is hoped that as near a hundred per cent registration will be recorded as is possible. The work of organizing to get the registration made will start next week and will continue up to the close of tha registration day. Farmers who use power machines of any kind should use every possible care to prevent lire. Numerous reports from over the state signify the importance of this and the loss of a large barn in Preble township last week with a big loss brings it close home. The Preble Township Fire Insurance company is giving notice to their patrons that 'a state law requires power to be located fifty feet from the machine. The extremely dry weather just now makes it more necessary than ever that you use every care to avoid fires. President Harding will address congress today and it is hoped will take off his kid gloves and talk to them in a manner convincing enough to move them to tears and action. They certainly need something and while its a little late it may help some.

We Serve You SERVICEI We like to put it In capitals that way because we believe it is the most important thing in the battery business. Os course we can't make a new battery out of an old on*, or a good battery out of a poor one, or a long-lived battery out of a short-lived one. There are limits even to battery service. But we can make any battery last longer and serve better if you give us a chance. We can make the Willard Threaded Rubber Battery do both—and it already holds records for long life and reliability. We can always do more with a battery if we get a chance right at the start, although we are ready to help anytime Come ini You'll say, too, that we give— SERVICEI Holthouse Garage Willard The republican editors in session at Madison this week adopted resolutions commending the national administration on the progress made during the past two years. Like the famous tariff bill of Mr. Taft’s administration they don't say whether the progress made was backward or forward. Perhaps the people will give them some idea of their vision of that fact when they vote in November. Only the tieing together of the work of the various committees for Yeomen day now remains to make it an occasion, unusual and effective. The entire population of this county is urged to take part in a celebration which is designed to encourage the men who are striving to “save the children” by building a City of Childhood. Any way so long as this weather continues we will probably refuse to worry about the chances for getting coal but don't kid yourself—some of these days you will need it. NOTICE TO THE MEMBERS OF PREBLE TP. FIRE INS. CO. The officers of the Preble township Fire Insurance Company hereby warn their members to be more careful about using any kind of power about their buildings. We experienced here recently what a tractor will do if operated too close to a building—th* fire at the Frauhicker barn. The state law js that you must have your power fifty feet from your machine and you must be careful on windy days and in dry weather. The officers of the company will have to deal with their members according to the laws. Please take warning. BOARD OF DIRECTORS PREBLE TP. FIRE INS. CO. Sat mon tues-x. DEMONSTRATIONS f ARE SUCCESSFUL (Continued from page one) the 7 days after the culling.- Mr. Green also attributes the increase in egg production partially to his feeding of a laying mash. It is also interesting to note that when Mr. Green culled his flock last fall he took out one third of his flock. At the culling metting this fall only one-sixth were removed. This helps to show that a flock may be greatly improved by proper culling and feeding.

Operators were prepared to demand that any agreement include a clause providing for arbitration. Miners opposed the proposal. The seniority issue blocked rail settlement today, while the question of arbitration stood in the path of hard coal peace. Conferences at New York and Philadelphia were to be resumed in fresh efforts to surmount these difficulties, while President Harding was to go before congress with a lengthy message on the situation. Brotherhood leaders and rail heads gathered early for a continuation of their parley in New York at 10 o’clock this morning. Anthracite operators resumed their meeting with John L. Lewis and miners’ chiefs at 2 p. rfl. in Philadelphia. Absolutely no official indication of progress came from either parley. The rail meeting, most promising of success since the strike started, ran for four hours without reporting any advance toward settlement. A brief formal statement was issued in New York by T. DeWitt Cuyler announcing “No definite conclusions were arrived at.” In Philadelphia. S. D. Warriner, spokesman of the operators, and President Lewis of the United Mine Workers signed a joint statement emphasizing the “sincere determination" of both sides to effect settlement. The delegates to the anthracite parley were conferring among them-
