THE NEW CHURCH: — The new and beautiful house of worship built this summer by the First Christian church of this city, will be dedicated tomorrow, an important event for the members of that congregation as well as for the people of this community. We congratulate Rev. Harry ’ Thompson and his board of trustees; I we congratulate the members of the church and we congratulate the city for this splendid step of progress for every new church is a step forward. 1 This new building is a beautiful edi- ’ flee, a monument to the city and lo- ' cated as it is on one of the busy corners of the town section, will attract ' much attention. Not only is the uilding a handsome 1 . ... . . ..... . <
one but is has been built for service and the arrangement is perfect for ventilation, for light, for attractiveness and for use to the very best advantage in every way.. We have heard it said repeatedly that the building has the best proportions of any in the city. It is plearing to look at and is showy without being gaudy. The interior and the exterior are in every way perfect and speed with which the new church has been erected speaks will for every one concerned therewith. The building wa s designed by Oscar Hoffman and built by C. N. Christen, the well known contractor. They have performed their duties well. The church will be dedicated tomorrow with fitting servces and we predict it will be a day long to be remembered by the faithful members and the beloved pastor. It is an occasion worth while. * It is. an effort that should make every one feel proud. It is a step ahead for old Decatur and her good people. Every inch of space in the high
jschool auditorium was taken last ev-
ening for the concert by the Mooseheart. Glee Club, a splendid showing for the community at thi s time when so many other events detract. These people went not so much for amusement as they did because of the great philanthropic cause -represented. the education and the proper rearing of twelve hundred'children in the school; and homes of Mooseheart. Our folks love children and they believe in the great ideal back of this institution, reecognized as the greatest of its kind in all the world. The clean young men, finished and cap-
able. who gave the entertainment are living advertisements of the accomplishments of Mooseheart and their visit h< re did ranch good by rekindl- » Ing in our hearts the thought of helping the children and helping those back of this order to make of them the bs:,t men and women. Ex-service men have received a letter signed by fifteen leading veterans of the world war urging them to vote for Davis because of the bad record of the present republican adgressman Vestal stood for them. It will some good world war veteran tell us one instance in which Con ; rsman Vetal stood for them. ! ,j aud uudisputed that in ev ..ttnty in ibis district in whirl
appointments bavp been made upon recommendation from Vestal, applications by ex-service men have been disregarded. They owe him nothing. You will find if you look up John A M. Adair's record that he stood al- , ways for the ex-soldier. Senator Watson and Congressman Vestal, having no other issue to talk about, preferring tor reasons peculiarly their own not to discuss the records of the past four years, tried to trade. They know and every voter alarm the people by talking free knows that the democratic party does not believe in tree trade at this time, nor have they for many years They do believe that tariff should be for revenue -and for absolute protection of certain industries which need it but not the benefit of a few engaged in the steel, aluminum, woolen business, etc. The democrats will give a big county rally in Decatur next Saturday night and every one is cordially invited to partiepate. The program includes a torch light procession, bands of music, features, red lights, banners and a speech by the famous blind senator. Thamos Pryor Gore of Oklahoma, one of the groat statesmen of America. Plans to make the* I event an enthusiastic success are now; being made and it is hoped that delegations from the various townships Kill take part. Wateh for announcements.
Two hundred women listened to a spendid address by Mrs. A. P. Flynn at democratic headquarters last evening. Mrs. Flynn is the national committee woman for Indiana and is an able and gifted speaker. She discussed the issues of the campaign, state and national and told the women why it was their duty to help carry Indiana for Davis and McCulloch and gave a number of suggestions as to how they can do it. It was a splendid meeting and disclosed the fact that the ladies are interested and are anxious to assist in the important work of the campaign. Senator Watson was ‘‘peeved” over the fact that only a handful of people turned out to hear him. He should take into consideration the fact that he has been here several times and most of the voters have heard his line of chatter concerning things irrevelent to the campaign. He is a professional politician, nothing more or less and the fact has leaked out to that extent that his presence fails to create a great furore. Dr. W. T. King, secretary of the state bourtl of health was here yesterday with Senator Watson. King has been campaigning for two months now and it's little wonder that many
think that the office he holds is a joke if he can devote so much time 1 to running up and down the state, hunting political microbes instead of disease germs. Democrats of Indiana have estab lisited a radio broadcasting station it Indianapolis and are sending messages each evening to voters of the state and nation. The new' station is WBBZ. Tune in tonight and try, it. Plan to attend the big democratic rally in Decatur next Saturday night.. It will be an old-fashioned one with torches, red fire, banners, bands and everything. Get in line. Just another week of the campaign last days will be interesting and oich side will fight hard to win. It’s important that you vote and help to get a 100 per cent. vote. o —— ?

Face to Face With Louis K. Liggett Founder of United Drug Co. Less than a score of years ago a young traveling man on the road selling drugs began observing betime:An idea came to him and grew upon | him that there was a revolution due in the retail drug business. With so - ity druggist associates he organized. the United Drug Store Co., each pledged themselves to stand together and ' buy their goods of their concerns. The old prescription case in the back corner and the colored light‘in the front window were abandoned. Merchandising was the order of the day. Struggles in the ups and downs wove 1 the loom of loyalty, firm and secure. They had their meetings, understandings an, l misunderstandings, but through it all worked together and ( played together, evolved the Rexall , stores and made a trade mark known : from coast to coatst, in over 8,008 drug j’ stores. J Louis Kroh Liggett was born in DeI troit, where Henry Ford began his 1 ( meteoric career. As a lad he was -‘ busy selling lemonade on the lawn.
With intuitive business instinct he graduated from an office boy into a salesman. He speaks a language which everyone understands. To decide is to act *with Louis~Liggett. His organization has been a regular university of modern business. His motto is action —turn over —quick sales —with every detail of I a drug store studied thoroughly by • experts. An expert himself, he uatI urally attracts experts. His trip ham mer mind is constantly at work. When he plays, he plays with the same enthusiasm. Leaving his office | with a big port folio filled with papers < and documents, he prepares for the | next day. Out of what others put in
. a waste basket, he gleans ideas | through suggestion. 4 “If every one could do just what they ought to do, there would be little trouble with the distributing of wealth. Forgetfulness, lack of concentration on essentials bring the high costs. Supervision is the most expensive phase of modern business and initiative and will kill off even super vision in business plans. Many ’ may have thp initiative and are not willing io pay the costs in energy tr carry on the work themselves. It is the supervision, constant inspecting and checking up is the thing that counts most to me in the costs am profits. It takes nearly as much as ii
