Join the Adams county crowd and attend the Davis rally Saturday evenJ ing. It will be the biggest political event in this sectton of Indiana this year. «• Tlie crowd which gathered at democratic headquarter s last evening to hear John W. Davis were convinced that the candidate’s reception in Chicago was an enthusiastic one. The cheers and the demonstration accorded the candidate could be plainly heard. Several of the greatest race drivers of America and Europe have met i death on the race tracks this year. If these skilled drivers, on smooth tracks, built for the purpose and all driving in one direction, usually end their careers with au early death, what chance is there for the reckless road driver? A delegation of several hundred from here will attend the Davis meeting at Fort Wayne tomorrow evening. The democratic candidate will appear there and will speak. Crowds from every part of the county are planning to join the Adams county crowd and each car will bear a sign, “Adams • County For Davis.” Better come along. Dr. McCulloch declares the present budget law in Indiana is a joke and from the size of the appropriations in 1 the last legislature we are sure every| ’ voter will agree with him. The pres- , ent budget system is just a plan whereby more money can be secured “ than by the former method. Budgets • are a good thing when honestly and • properly handled but the present In w (liana law certainly needs tightening • if it is to protect the taxpayers in » any way. As it is, it is harmful rath- • * er than helpful. L * Homer Ormsby of the Huntin ;to-i ” Press has been named democratic • publicity manager and is now busy at • the Indianapolis headquarters.

papers of the state informed as t< progress of the campaign und wil provide valuable information. A new departure is the announcement that his department will take care of in r qulries from the press und ulsc p. of spot news. Homer is an experi t. enced, capable newspaper man and his selection to head the department r ’ will please every editor in the state. John Adair will return to Adams b county the latter part of next week s and will deliver three more addresses a to the voters. He will speak at Linn * Grove the 27th, at Berne the 29th and ; at Geneva. October Ist. He is cam- ) paigning each day now and will keep • it up until the evening of November I 3rd. Later he will devote two or three days to the north part of the county. In every part of the district he is making headway in his campaign to return to congress that he may serve his people. “You ’aint heard nothin’ ” until you have listened to John W Davis in bis political drive for the presidency. He is courageous and he is certainly able. His reception in Chicago last night was one of the most wonderful ever given any candidaw.in this country. If you are figuring this great man will not make a splendid showing and finish in the lead by November 4th, you have another guess. His trip through the west made every political writer change his mind completely. He will tour Indiana today and tomorrow and it is quite likely you will find much enthusiasm and sentiment resulting. The effort being made here at this ■ time to organize a training school which will prepare Sunday School teachers is a worth-while one and deserving of the splendid support new so heartily given by all the churches. Adequate religious education demands an adequate number of thoroughly prepared men and women capable of teaching and leading children and young people. Hundreds of thousands of men and women must be trained for teaching and leadership and the local school is directed towards the end of helping this great cause. Nothing could be better fo| the community. Have you registered? You can do it easily by filling cut a blank and having it sworn to or signed by two voters from your precinct. If you don’t do this be sure to register on Oetobler 6th, provided you did not do sc two years ago and have not moved in i the meantime. It is hoped and expected that the vote this year will be ■ the largest in history and efforts towards that end are being made by evi ery political organization as well as i church and civic associations. There . is no doubt that it is better for the i country when the people take sufficient interest to assist in choosing the officials. Be sure to register if nec- , essary and be sure to vote on election day. LEGION ELECTS JAMES A. DRAIN (Continued From Page One) I “Hail, Hail, The Gang’s All Here,” as
