The crowd was large and the stores are doing a lively business. It pays to let the world know you are alive. .The Good Fellow fund is growing, a little slowly perhaps, but steadily. Its the easiest way to do your part toward helping every one in the community enjoy Christmas day. Give a dollar or two to this fund and help the young ladies complete a splendid work. Christmas shopping is on in earnest now and for the next ten days I will be the principle avocation for) most of us. May we suggest that easiest way to do it is to watch advertisements appearing in this paper from day to day, make up your, list and buy from those who thus invite you. The state fire marshall is sending out the usual warning against carelessness in trimming the Christmas « tree, using the old fashioned tallow candle and using cotton carelessly in show windows. Disastrous fires have occurred over the country from the.,e causes and they can be avoided, it is pointed out, by a little care. An Omaha physician has discovered that too few children are being born in this land of the free and home of the brave and favors a law in Nebraska that when a married couple have lived together two years without a child being born to them, they shall be automatically divorced. Perhaps the poor fellow needs business. Those who accepted Ed Jackson's statement that he was for all the people,of the slate must feel squeni jsh when they read of the activities of D. C. Stephenson, the “old man'' of the ku klu klan, who is now organizing the senate and house of the legislature. Harry Leslie, of Lafayette, is to be speaker of the house and James Nejdle, of Whiting, will be president pro-tem of the senate, according to the foxy Mr. Stephenson. And evidently he is working under direction of the govenror-elect. Another week is closing and after the cares and strife of six days at your labor or in your business, you will probably welcome Sunday. Its the dry of rest, which however coetn’t mean that you should just 101 l and eat. Its the day you should devote to thoughts of the eternity when your labors on earth have cease I, when we are all equal, when you are measured by what you did ' here ami how. You will work better all next, week if you devote tumor- ' row a- you should. The Golden Rule is line and should be followed but as translated by we selfish folks, it is not all. Tb" death of Samuel Gotupers removes oae of the great leaders of: ( inized labor. For many years be has served as president of th(j l American Federation of Labor and that fact proves that he held the' confidence and esteem of those whom' he represented. He may have had scute radical ideas but he also had mhu; theories which were wholesbme

CHRISTMAS TIME Happy hours are cieaping near us Happy hours bring happy days. How the Kiddies crave the snow flukes For Old Santa’s deer's and sleigh. All the boys chucked with ambiflion Helping Daddy with his toils, Hoping Santa don't forget To bring them sleds, skates and all. • Little girlies get up early Work and help with all thefr might. Set the table, dry (he dishes ‘ Help their Mamma through til night. ' • Now lets hope the snow falls faster ( Than it ever has before, < So Old Santa's sleigh and reindeer's Can come right up to the door. i t Mr. Jack-Frost with all his brushes Comes to all the window panes. i Paints them white with pretty Lowers I You can see them very plain. i He paints up every window , Just as quiet as a mouse, So good boys and girls can't see Old Sauta In case he slips around the house. \ Then he gets in. some way or other Keeps from making any noise, Lights the candles on .he fire-place Then fills Ute stockings full with toys. In the morning how the children Shout and sing and dance with glee, Oh! How wonderful for little children Christmas time will be. A. L- B.

and he did a great work for his people and for the country. His entire ' life was devoted to securing a better condition for those who worked with their hands and few will doubt his success who know his history. For some time he has been in poor health and able only to direct the work in which he engaged until the very last. He was fatally stricken while attending a meeting of the Pan-Amer-ican Labor Association in Mexico City and was rushed to San Antonia, Texas, where he arrived last evening. Governor Branch told the republican politicians the other day what he thought ought to be done during the coming session of the legislature and he told it without any selfish reasons. He knows his official career ends January 12th when Ed Jackson takes his place and he knows he is practically out of pol- ! itics, so he told them just what he felt plight to be done. We don’t just agree with mast of it but we give him cred’.t for recommending what he thinks would be best for the state.

He favors a rural police service, plac- ' ing auto busses under public service commission. the county unit system of education, higher license fees for trucks, repeal of the primary laws, reassessment of all lauds next year, hands oil the tax laws and a central board of control for state institutions. Any way thats about what you voted for in Indiana and this declaration shows its what they hope 'to give you. Mr. Jackson will follow up now' with his ideas which will lie similar and probably include a few others which will cost something and he will have four years to carry out his policies. o—, — * TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY ♦ • ♦ ♦ From the Daily Democrat file* ♦ * 20 years ago thia day ♦ *«••♦♦**••*♦«* Dae. 13. 1»M. — Tom Harvey. 20.

Behring street at vari--5 ous times during the past few weeks. .
