AN ALLSTATE POLITICAL TEAM:— The Indianapolis News recently printed the following seasonable story: “Now that the experts ot the sporting pages have picked their imaginary all-state, all-western, all-Amer-ican. all-conference and other football teams, it may not be amiss to pick an all-political team for the state, taking into consideration the performance of the players during the political season recently closed. The News, after careful consideration of the fine points of the game, picks the following: Ends. Walter S. Chambers and William P. Evans; Tackles, Harry S. New and Albert J. Beveridge; guards, Warren T. McCray and Joe Cravens; center, Samuel M. Ralston; quarterback, Jesse Eschbach; half backs, James E. Watson and Thomas Taggart; full-back. Lew Shank. This is the first year that Chambers has made the all-state<team, but his playing during the last season assuies him a place. As chairman of the democratic state committee and as a candidate for state senator, he played the game well, making consistent gains. He is speedy, and uses his head. Evans was down the field well in advance of every trick play tried against him. He is a good

Reflocing the Hazard “The enlightened employer interests himself in the conservation of the health of his employes and in their safety, so far as ,e can provide them,” says the Chicago Tribune. For many years the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) has followed this plan as a part of its established policy. This Company maintains an exceptionally high standard of safety insurance. It not only provides safety devices but by cncourag.ng the organization of safety committees i:i all of its refineries, it has been successful in reducing accidents in its refineries to a point which actually is below that of many businesses naturally less hazardous. As an example of its efforts in this direction is cited the fact that all Standard Oil Company (Indiana) refineries are provided with elaborate fire-fighting devfces, of which live steam and chemicals are notable refinements. 2 The Directors of the Standard Oil Company (Indiana) recognize that an employe who believes himself to be well-treated and secure is a better worker and is more interested in giving full service both to the Company and to the public than is the employe who lacks this feeling of security. The management of this Company believes that every constructive measure for the benefit of its employes is a definite factor in lowering the cost of doing business, in securing greater efficiency, and ultimately lowering prices of its products to the consumer. Hazard reduction is but one item, though an important one, in the Company’s complete program of attention to the well-being of its employes. Other items include liberal compensation, good working conditions, steady work, and insurance in so far as is possible against unemployment. In addition this Company has devised an annuity system to provide for the protection of those who have grown old in its service. The efforts of the management to provide ways and means of eliminating the dangers of a highly hazardous occupation is reflected in the enthusiasm of the workers and the whole-hearted endorsement of 26,560 stockholders, not one of wfcom owns as /much as 10 percent of the total.

ground gainer and an extremely hard man to tackle. Both New and Beveridge are seasoned players, familiar with the old criss-cross. The only criticism of their style of play is their occasional disposition to tackle each other. McCray seems to be well located at a guard position. He is built for the place and is a hard man to go through, being strong as a bull on defensive play, active when his team has the ball. Cravens is an experienced player, vigorous, ag gressive and hard to get round. In the legislature he frequently has thrown the opposition team for losses. Ralston makes the ideal center. There is nothing flashy about his system of play. He believes in straight political football, frowning on the forward pass, the onside kick and the old shoe string trick. He has demonstrated his ability both on offense and defense. To Jesse Eschbach is given the honorary position of captain as well as quarterback. He is an alert, vigorous, heady player, well versed tn all the trick plays of the opposition and when playing defensive fullback, getting by him is practically impossible. He has repeatedly broken up mass formations by the contractor, school supply and other teams and has been a prime favorite with the rooters. Both Watson and Taggart are shifty, crafty men at half-back. Each knows all the old ind new strategy of the sport. They are good ground gainers and hard to stop. At fullback. Lew Shank is placed because of his ability as a kicker. He probably can outkick any member of the team. He runs well, but is somewhat erratic, having been known to become confused in a game and run away from his own goal posts. He has played on various political teams, and is hard to down. Shank has been penalized frequently for being offside, and he sometimes confuses the signals, but through his sheer ability as a consistent kicker he is placed on the allstate* team.” \ ■■ A big omnibus bill, spending milions and millions is to be pushed through congress now. It includes a considerable amount for postoffice buildings in Indiana but we fail to 'lnd a solitary mention of Decatur here a site was purchased several , years ago.

J 'T ' ' ' IF Ji 1 ".Banishing pain " by reducing congestion i Millions are now using this aim- ‘ pie treatment to stop pain. Sloan’s, applied without rubbing, penetrates and produces a warming sensation. It stimulates new, fresh blood to and through the aching part. This breaks up the congestion, and since congestion has caused the pain—quick, grateful relief follows. t The world over. Sloan's stops rheu malic twiners and muscular achas. It cases aching backs and sharp, neuraiflc pains. Good, too, for colds m chest. Slown's pain! coi4 girl Don't neglect it Stop that cough now with this simple treatment that heads o 9 > the development of serious ailments. It soothes inflamed, tender tissues, loosens hard-packed phlegm and breaks the cold. i Now—atop that cough in time —ask your druggist for DkKJNG’S DISCOVERY I -a syrup for coughs j .Ired thousand. South Bend a million and so on down the list. While we don’t expect Mr. Vestal to take care I of Adams county for any thing but ; garden seed, it would be greatly ap f preciated if he would mention to the , committee in charge that the govern- i ment owns a splendid lot here and t that since all the other county seats ‘ have a federal building and since the government is determined to spend 1 ( the money this would be a good time s to include Decatur. Govern >r McCray held a confer- ! * I cnee with republican members of the , coming legislature yesterday. He 1 i urged rigid economy but in the same breath asked for an appropriation of , an additional million and a half dol- ; lars for the Pendleton reformatory ’ and a half million for the state fair j grounds. In other words he wants economy for those things except what he wants put over. He urges the* two cent tax on gasoline, a law limiting or prohibiting the issuance of tax exempt bonds. There is no doubt that some action* should be tak on to regulate the issuance of tax exempt bonds for the wealth of the state is being rapidly converted into these securities and this is consequently increasing the taxes. The governor will probably not get all he wants. Efforts will be made to secure the passage of an income tax law in Indiana. This will mean just that much additional trouble as well ns the expenditure of more money for the experience of past years leads us to believe that even though several million is raised in that manner it will not effect your direct taxes. It wifi provide more boards and jobs, and you will pay the additional bills. It is claimed by eastern papers that the slight majority given the subsidy bill in congress was because several dozen congressmen whose terms will expire March 4th voted for the shipping trust with hopes of being taken care of with federal jobs by the administration. If that is true it is a sad condition ot‘ affairs in America. j'L We .never realize how many things i 'O. ‘ ' 1 are done unlawfully on Sunday until some city undertakes to enforce “blue laws.” Wabash is doing it noW and the performance is being watched with interest by the people ot many municipalities where they would like to tajoy the Sunday "movie.” ■> As ** —a - • 4 •• -

“I would not care it not more than a dozen bills are passed by the legislature and the fewer passed, the better I will be satisfied” said Governor McCray yesterday. Good boy, Governor, that's the way the rest of the people feel about it. And be careful about the dozen. • —— •— Purdue Poultrymen Are On Program At Chicago Lafayette, Ind., Dec. 5.- The poultry department of Purdue University will play a prominent part in the Coliseum Poultry Show at Chicago, Dec. > to 12, inclusive, the Purdue men having charge of the educational features of the show.
