It looks a little billious, j but those in charge have not lost T heart and will make every effort to n . a carry out the program as best they can, if the rest of the week brightens J up. The rains which hav e continued j v almost steadily sinco last Friday have l< of course /kept some attractions and 0 exhibits away, hut the work at the lc grounds has never *le.t up and they are in fine shape to give a real fair if the weather permits.

They can do a lot of good and win a place in the hearts of the people, even 0 greater than before. l,ast year America burned flp a half billion dol- a lars worth of property, most of it due to bad chimneys, defective flues, 1 spontaneous combustion, matches, poor wiring or gasoline. It should be the duty of every one to guard against c this fearful loss and the Boy Scouts tan help if they do nothing but call 1 attention to it. Os course they do more than that. They can clean up those places which have been neg- / leetr.d and see that a proper program t is carried out. in each school on October 9th, anniversary of the great •" Chicago fire. They should plane a * seven-day campaign and carry it out. it is most important to the city and the county that the improvement, on road 21 be completed this fall. If it . is not. opened every road north from 1 here will be impassable before the winter has gone far and the county will expend thousands of dollars to improve or rebuild therm The city wants tile road open because every day it is closed we are losing traffic. Tor travelers are routed other ways. Perhaps you have noticed that we, hav e had but little of the north and '

Contractor 1 Harris is hung up on the job because l he cannot get the stone to the road. , if he could do so he could have the ‘ A. road opened in a month. It seems there should be some way in which this could be done and without any damage to the streets, by controlling the speed, limiting the load and dividing the haul. Its a serious and important proposition and one that should be considered right now. It may be true that neither state n't*!- federal officers hold up and search, on mere suspicion, automobiles on the highways of Indiana, hut they are thus held up and searched by some men claiming to act with authority. The protest of the Hoosier Motor Club grew out of the experience of a man and his wife whose car was searched six times between Hammond and Indianapolis. By the time they reached this city the clothing in the oft-searched bag was unfit for further use because of the pawings to which/ it bad been subjected. This, of course, is an outrage, and one that must stir the anger of all lovers of liberty—to say nothing of decency. It is the business of the state authorities to find out who these holdup people are and on what authority they are acting. Certainly it is the state's business to make the highways of Indiana safe for travelers, safe against insult as welt as against violence. —Indianapolis News.

Within ihe dining room the staves Os chairs were draped for gloomy eaves Where pirates, fearful to behold. Buried their chest of stolen gold. And in the end gave up their lives Defending mother's forks ami knives. And all day long the ruin came down And filled the gutters of the town. The grown-folks grumbled, but a child to such despair is reconciled. For his imaginative play Can glorify a rainy day.
