Horrors the Cooldige dog is ill He swfeliowed a bone and Mrs. Coolidge was distracted until he coughed it up. The incident furnishes big headlines for the largest papers. Nowjust how docs it effect the government? We’re a silly lot some time : ; We agree with you that the dimmer law is foolish and difficult to comply with and that regulation of headlights would be better but the difficulty is 1 that the dimmer law is in effect and officers are arresting those who do 1 not obey it. Don’t be foolish. That’s 1 , enough. 1 A few of those who signed for Chau- ’ tauqua tickets have not taken same i yet. You will accopiodate the man- i agement it you will get them at once, < from J S. Peterson, from the party ; in your district, from any of the local banks or at this office. The ttv»st important thing just now to assure success of the big week is to get the tickets out. y "" ll_ ■ - R.seb;;ll has lost interest this year. ] That doesn't mean the world series , won’t attract attention and crowds but it does mean that in the smaller communities where the ball players . come from they are now playing golf and tennis and that the crop of sand loti-.r.s during the next decide may ’ not be so large as when every small - town had a team with several stars sure to develop into big league mi- . terlal. From all reports everybody is coming to the big Decatur fair this year If you attend Tuesday evening. September 15th. when the opening occurs, we are sure you will want to retui n tor each day and night. The program is an excellent one and Manrger Williamson says the show will be bigger than claimed for it. Get your exhibit ready, plan to attend, you will meet all the folks, have a good t.nie and learn many things of interest. Chautauqua headliners hets will include Governor Edwin P. Morrow of Kentucky. Charles Milton Newcomb. Joel Eastman. Henry Black Burns. Arthur Mac Murray, the Chicago Opera Company, the Mr.'MurYay-Kackley company, the Community Players, the Lombards and others of successful note That should be sufficient announcement to make every one fn i this section rush tor tickets. Every number will be an excellent one and every one will enjoy the big week It opens Monday and continues until Saturday evening. Be there. Our attention is called to the fret that several boys and girls who have but a year or two left of high school have decided not to reenter this year. We hope they reconsider and do not make this mistake. If they -will talk with men of middle age or more, they will soon find a number who. anxious to get to work did that same thing and would have given much later in life if they could have corrected it ' Education is worth more tu you than 1 any thing else for it is an asset that j

A l imber of Decatur people know Mamie and Rosebud and will follov 'he trial with much interest. The anthracite coal miners are going to strike Monday night at midnight. That point now seems settled. Don’t kid yourself that because you don't use hard coal or don’t have to in a pinch, that this strike won’t effect you. Immediately the -prices of fuel will soar and it is not entirely impossible that before the anthracite strike is over, others may join it. If you ever seriously considered any thing in your life, if you ever prepared for winter it certainly looks as though you ought to be giving that problem a little thought now.. The predictions are that it is to be severe- You can be comfortable by looking ahead a few months and perhaps cutting out a little expense some other way. Before many weeks you will be looking the fuel proposition squarely in the face: you can do so now and save money and worry. • ♦ ♦ TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY ♦ • • • fr-m »h« Daily Democrat * • Twenty years ago this day ♦ ♦ *««*««*♦*»**«* August. 28—S.

This said the whispering oak: “I've marveled, too. Young dreamer, just as you. In days before you were I held my place And wondered at God's grace, And I have seen His power In raging tempest and in summer shower. Now I am Wiser far Than all the wisest of you people are. To suit God's mighty purposes and plans I Mine is a longer life than man's. 1 tefore you tWrc. and it may be Children of many ages I shall see. "Dreamer, that sun which sets the sky aflame Was here before you came To cope with sin and shame; Those stars at night Have shed their lovely light Upon this weary world where mortals doubt And all man's science cannot put oue out.

========================== i nolticed in the continent and Britain -in England we had such heavy thru Lausanne, the great conference town. breakfaats. always porridge, then fish (if one wished i Then bacon and eggs, toast, rolls, coffee and the inevitable orange marmalade. Here on the continent we have crisp rolls, butter, marmtladc and coffee Nothing more, nothing less, and nothing different! The thing we hated so about English I cooking was the heaviness of the food, so much meat, and poorly boiled i potatoes, and the sameness cf it all.' 1 No matter where we went we found the t ime food repeated over and over . ad, over. The food on the €ohtinent I has been much better? Cooked better | and more variety. , > We were discussing last night how • different the trip was than we expect-, ed. We expected bad weather, unpleasl<uit hotel accommodations, poor food. ! trouble with customs, difficulty because of language differences —and we have had none of those! Th" 1 weather has been marvelous! Never once have ' we really needed an umbrella; except for a few minutes downpour, or a little mist as they say we haven’t been troubled. All the rain thal has come has been at night, obligingly! Last Sunday we were at Interlaken, and took a trip np the Eigerlitzer, or glacier there. It rrined steadily all day i.i Interlaken. but we were above the clouds and enjoyed a snowstorm and then sunshine! Hotel accommodations have been ; i very comfortable, and sometimes more , 'than that. Twice within this week 1

• Miry and I have had rooms wilh bath, i hot and cold running water! Os course ' unless we do have that we have bowls 1 to wash in. and we must ring for the 'maid for the hot water. Every hotel has n million granite pitchers for hot water! The food I have discussed pro and con, and certainly I have fell pro most of tho lime. Customs nre a "joke! I can't really see why they have them For our party *Ol 1« (the other 5 left for the short trip from Brussels) they open perhaps 3 bags, poke around a bit, chalk them, and it's all over. So fat the officera have not come fn the trains and we haven't been discommoded once. We hear Italy Isn’t so comfortable but that remains to be seen. As tor I ingtiage differences you can always make people understand by signs, and every shop man knows enough English to tell you the price, and whether it will wash or not. and where it was made. Conversation, they are not capable of —but they can transact business. In sact —I think the hardships of Euiopenn travel are vastly overestimated. Also I know a person doing it alone couldn't possibly do it as (cheaply as with i company Where they will make any money is more than | i tan see- OUT hotels average 14 Wi per day. and one long ti >in trip we took eost >45.0(1 per person. Switzerland is too beautiful for words! Lila Welsh has been to the Rockies and she says Switzerland is .much lovlier tor (1) the lakes are so beautiful, and there are so many, a I mountain anil then a laku and then enother mountain and lake.

Switzerland cele brated its Independent- Day on August Ist. while we were at Interliken. At our hotel we celebrated by having our iee-cream dessert surmounted bySwiss flags. Much clapping and hurrahs resulted. In the town there were lovely fireworks, the children carried bright lanterns, there was a tutruilo.
