Sun day comes the dedication of the new county hospital of which we are all so proud and next week Chautauqua These home affairs are important and its a pleasure to s< e our people take so splendid a part in all of them.
A free Chautauqua will bring a crowd of happy people together who will be more than satisfied and who wifi be boosters for the town which provides such an entertainment. It will bring the best week of that kind to Decatur we ever had and will give us the entire management of the afi fair. Are you thinking about it? Senator Ferris, thinker and a worker, has concluded a poll of the democratic leaders in Michigan and finds the great majority of them opposed to Henry Ford as a nominee for president. They are right. Since Thomas Jefferson launched the great political party only those who have proven a right to lead have been giv en the great honor of being nominated for president. Senator Watson has had a talk with Senator Moses and changed his mind, A week ago he was declaring what he would do with the republican radicals but now he says unless there is a change for the better before the election he doubts whether the republicans can win. He should have noticed that while the senate was in session, when they were passing legislation for those who did not need it and passing up the farmer and the rest of those who have to labor. The lure of Hollywood lias finally attraetd to the Pacific coast one of Indiana's famous sons, George Ade who for many years was content with an income of fifty thousand from his short stories and his literary efforts
but the publicity given the lessor lights who are paid fabulous sums for sketches which can be reproduced on the screen has caused him to move westward with the crowd. Some way or other we can't help but feel that Ade Is getting out of his I real path of usefulness and will find it hard to dish up the material for Harold Lloyd, Charlie Chaplin and: the rest of those stars who get the real money. The state highway commissioners are delighted with the Adams County Better Roads association and will cooperate. We have already secured several benefits and there are more. With a little effort on our part we will secure an east and west highway through Berne and one through Decatur. That's stepping along and this is in addition to the main north and south road so important. Every citizen of the county should get behind the new organization for there are many opportunities for us to help in this important project. It's time to get busy on the H-M-C highway which will extend from the state line east of here clear across the state and along Monroe street in this city. Good counties will soon be largely judged from the good main highways I they have and this is our opportunity. The big fair is closing. It lifts been a complete success in every

GOLDWYN STUDIO, Cal.—Jaunita Miller, daughter of Joaquin Miller, famous California poet; she who comes to light periodically with startling ideas of life, is again in the limelight. She was engaged by the Goldwyn motion picture studio to play a part and sent to the top of a high “set” in the studio yard. Here she refused to come down until she had “wed her lover, the sun" by which she explained she would be given courage to climb down the 200 feet of steep steps to the ground. She stayed at the top of the tower three days before she announced that the marriage had taken place and she could descend. She says she is passing through the yellow cycle of her life and the s in’s rays are her heaven-mate.
way and the people we feel sure are more than delighted. It is a nerve I racking job to put on a county fair ■ and there are many things to test the • material of those engaged in the work but we believe this year’s effort ' has produced more compliments than any year since the first one. Every exhibitor and every prize winner is being promptly paid and the feeling towards the association is genuinely complimentary. The crowds yesterday and last evening were immense, the attendance last night being the largest ever on the grounds, it is ' claimed. There has been the very best of order, no accidents of consequence and the high class program has been so pleasing that every one is more than satisfied. We congratulate Mr. Isenbarger and Mr. Reppert. It's a big show and a great week. o Thought for the Day.
