The sale season is at hand and the merchants are offering bargains of real material at real prices. It will pay you to watch the advertising columns carefully these days. Jim Day. custodian of the Bluffton court house v.’uo had four gallons oi home brew in his room tn the basement, has resigned by request. It certainly did take a lot of nerve for him to try it and the wonder is that he was permitted to postpone his departure tor several days. Scientists have given up the idea that man descended from monkeys and are now proceeding on the theory that both man and money originated from some source and the same, a million years ago. Since they can t find the missing link they have established a theory which can't be disproved so they can go ahead with their ideas undisturbed. The rains, hot days and warm nights —corn weather as perfect as ever was turned out from the bureau which claims to operate this branch of servic-. And the crops look mighty good. Now if the gamblers will keep their hands off and permit the farmers to sell their products at a profit, we may begin to commence to start to get some where Mort Hawkins has appealed of course and by so doing has secured a few months longer before beginning a sentence which looks inevitable and his fight for liberty, while game, is evidently useless. After all it we fool with the courts or indulge in such practise as makes us liable to arrest, we usually and finally get the axe. More than five million arrests were made in the United States last year because of violations of traffic laws. No difference how careful a driver is and how anxious he may be to obey the laws its an almost impossible thing because of the difference in traffic rules in the various towns and cities. The traffic laws should be reduced in number, simplified and unified. Three hundred people lost their lives in this country as the result of carelessness in celebrating the Fourth. And that after a campaign of several weeks throughout the nation with hopes the number this year could be reduced. Wonder how many would have been maimed or killed if there had been no campaign? Wonder after ail if these public campaigns really bring any results? If you don't actually support the fair, you ought not expect much in return. That’s the way things usually work. We believe most of the people hi this county will lend their assist a nee to the big week for a good county fair is a real advertisement for any community. Rember it always helps to be doing things and letting the people know we are alive. Its only a little over two months until the event opens here and there is much to do. Taka off your coat and get in this game and help make it the Great Decatur Fair. * Attorney* for D. C. Stephenson

1 5 fussed around in a sham battle to 3 have Gentry or Klinck, partners in I the crime charged, tried first and fallB ing proceeded to play for a delay, which they get. The case will not be heard until October. If Stephenson gets any comfort out of lying in jail and thinking of the terrible wrong he did to Miss Oberholtzer, let him hop to It. The state's attorneys may help him along by prolonging the time of ! trial a few months. Whether Its this I week or a year from now, the "old f man” should get his just dues and if 1 the feelings of the people of Indiana ' count for any thing, he will. His was the master mind in the trip to Hammond and he is the one guilty of those 1 things which beyond question led to 1 the death of the young woman. t From several sources there have r come suggestions that Senator Unt derwood has decided to retire from * active participation in public life for more reasons than a desire to write and a wish to indulge in other work ‘ tor which he feels ’that he has a * bent. It is said that opposition to his r renomination and re-election in his 1 home state of Alabama is of sufficient " volume to cause some doubt as to his ’ success, should he announce his in--1 tention of contesting again in 1926. * As the situation stands, he will leave * congress on March 4, 1927, with a record of having served twenty years in the house and twelve in the sen1 ate. If it is true that the vicissitudes 3 of politics are responsible for his de--1 cision, there will be more than nor--1 mal regret. Senator Underwood has 13 knowledge, courage and integrity. The s arts of the demagogue found no 1 lodgement in his mind. Alabama * will be hard put to replace him with 6 a man who will not suffer by comparison.—lndianapolis News.

Judge me not by what I’ve said, Hot in rage or cold in dread; Judge ine not by what I’ve done Seeking goals which must be won; Prey to moods and temper quick, Shame lies round about me thick, But my garden lets you see Something of the better me. Walk my garden and behold, I have loved the marigold! In those hours which were my own, Roses 1 bave loved and grown; 1 have labored here to bring Hyacinths to bloom in spring, Here I’ve kept for all who come Many a red geranium.

Find Rare Treasures Stolen From Sacristy (United Press Service) Rome, July 7— Playing the role of “rich merchant from New York, taking advantage of the lire depreciation Police officer Marotta suceeded in trapping a shoemaker in whose possession were found the rare treasurers stolen Friday night from St. Peter’s sacrity. Th shoemaker has confessed to police as to his part in the robbery and several accomplices have also been arrested. Pope Pius has been notified of the officer’s bold coup and is likely to present him with a liberal reward. Marotta told Mariano Stella, the shoemaker, that he had plenty of mon a ey and wanted to buy jewelry in view of its comparative cheapness with the lire depreciated. Stella fell into the trap and took Barotta to his shop where he displayed the rare jewelled treasurers which, up to Friday, had reposed in the sacred vaults of the sacristy. Suddenly eight detectives sprang up as Marotta gave a signal, forced an entrance into the shop and put Stella in handcuffs. Taken to police headquarters he confessed. The police have returned the stolen articles to Cardinal Merry del Vai. o Man’s Jugular Vein Punctured In Accident (United Press Service) Huntingburg, Ind,, July 7—Condi-

Walk my garden round and see My devotion to a tree, See me struggle to express All my dreams ot loveliness In a pansy patch, and make Dahlia beds for beauty’s sake. Men may think me cold, but oh, Not a rose would call me so! Judge me not by what you hear From the lips of men severe; If you’d know me as I am, Stripped of all the worldly sham, Let my little garden be Called to testify for me, There is evidence supplied Os my nobler, gentler side.
