Mo The football players of the two local high schools arc having their try-outs for the varsity teams and before you know It you'll be standing on the line pulling for your team to win. The hard coal strike seems to be on but since the news of the earthquake in Japan, the strike and the chances for war between Greece and Italy are forced to the background. One way of killing two birds with one stone. Twenty years ago the public schools opened with an enrollment of 620. On the opening day this year the enrollment was 965. Now you can figure if Decatur is increasing in population and how long it will take to become a city of 25,000. One thing is sure we have more school children. America has been called on to help the suffering and homeless people of Japan, victims of the greatest earthquake in the history of the world. The Red Cross is launching a campaign to raise five million dollars for the suffering. Indiana s quota is SIOO,OOO. The campaign for funds will bo conducted in Adams county and for humanity’s sake the people of this splendid community will give their dollars. A distressed and sorrowful people must be aided- and money at this time will buy most anything they need. SM ■ I ■ ■ The Decatur Industrial Association which suspended meetings during the summer months will hold its first monthly meeting next Wednesday evening and Dan M. Niblick, president of tl’.e organization has secured Mr. A. R. Kroh of the Goodyear Tire and Rubber company, to address the members and their guests. The meeting will mark the opening of the fall and winter program of the organization. The public is invited to attend and the talk by Mr. Kroh, who is highly recommended by the Indiana State Retail Dry Goods Association, will be well worth hearing. He has a timely message, for busy business men. ' The Daily Democrat wants to print the news or activities of the different clubs, churches or social societies and will deem it a favor if a representative of the organizations see that the editor or reporters on this paper get notes of the meetings. It is impossible for us to attend every meeting and to belong to every organization and unless you help us in getting the details an item of interest to the other club members may be omitted. We want to print the news and strive to do it and with a little assistance can make the “home' paper” newsy and interesting to everyone. Let us know what your church, club or society is doing. This generation ought to hear nothing more of the jingo talk of war with Japan. If there was ever any intention in Japan to make war on the United States, or any of the white races, it will vanish now with the flames and flood that have almost destroyed the little oriental empire. Recent events ought to turn the minds of the world to peace and n )t to war. Indiana can sow what it thinks of the situation by .enc'.ng promptly i.r coutrluulioß to the relief of the Eugermg millions in China

and Japan. The Red Cross can be trusted to handle the money honestly quickly and efficiently. So send it in and send it without delay.—lndianapolis News. A well known resident of the south >, part of the city called at this office this morning and said, "If you want to see real speeders you needn’t go to ’ Bellmont Park to the races but just ) come out to the South Ward school J building and watch them go by.” ; This person stated that automobile j drivers were racing down this street I past the school house at an excessive ■ rate of speed and that many times he feared one of the speed demons would hit the children going and coming from school. This speed nuisance must be stopped. It is a . strict violation of the law to speed past a school house and a person with ordinary intelligence should not take chances on killing an innocent little girl or boy. After the accident happens then it is too late. There is no sense in seeing how fast a person can drive and it is a wonder that more accidents have not occurred. Keep your foot off the gas when nearing a school house and place yourself in the position of the father or moth- I er whose child was killed by a reck- I less driver. A few arrests and prob- | ably a jail sentence is the next best | cure for the person who insists on | violating the speed laws. i —O ■ ■ [ ♦ I ♦ TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY ♦ i + From the Daily Democrat files ♦ t ♦ 20 years aqo thia day < f ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦E September 6th, 1903 was Sunday. | PLAN UNION REVIVAL Protestant Churches of Warsaw To E Hold Revival In Community Building. : Warsaw, Ind., Sept. 6. —Protestant I churches of Warsaw have joined in a t plan to have religious revival to be I conducted for four weeks at the Com- I munity building here beginning Sept. | 30.

Doan’s Kidney Pills I have given great satisfaction in such I cases. Decatur citizens testify to I this. Here is a case of it: Ask your neighbor! ■ Mrs. E. A. Mann, 1003 W. Monroe I St., says: “I know the value of Doan I Kidney Pills and am glad to recoml mend them to anyone having kidney complaint. 1 used them when my ' kidneys were out of order and I had , severe backaches that made it harder for me to do my work. I often - had nervous headaches and my kidneys acted irregularly. I used Doan’s Kidney Pills from ' the Holthbuse Drug Co. and they proved to be just , what I needed. Doan's were not long in giving me relief, frgsn the backache and kidney complaint.” Price 60c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney lemedy—get Doan s Kidney Hills —l.Le same that Mrs. Mann had Foster-Milburn Co., i Mire., Buffalo, N. Y.
