One is almost led to believe that the registrations in Fort Wayne settle j the election, but it doesn’t. They will still require an election and those who receive the greatest number of votes on November 3rd will most probably be declared the winners, regard-; less of how. when or where they i registered. Indii’.oils are that the donations from Hie iioul children of Adams county w ill be one hundred per cent, when reported in. That will be a ■ sm[ si. i.'d enthuse every citizen to take a part in making the campaign for a memorial to Gene Stratton-Porter and the Limber-, lost Trail a real success and a triump for those things worth while. One of the newer young business men of the city suggests a mask parade for Hallow'een ami tells of the wonderful success of similar events which have been in other cities where he has lived, it would be a lively occasion, create business ami inaugurate a new form of celebration ; which he believes would go on from year to year. He explains also that i it does away with the old idea of youngsters seeing how much they can destroy for their njinds are busy with ’ the idea of securing one of the prizes offered for those best masked, th*' conic, the most unique or the cleverest. What do you think about it? Snow and sleet fell in lowa and other middle western states yesterday and the cold breath of the ice king was felt here during the night. This morning the first ice of the season was rfbticcabic while the weather man announces "cooler tomorrow." Its coming folks, just as sure as Thanksgiving and Christmas and its , time now to provide the heavier cloth- , ing, the fuel and the other requisites which protect you against winter. The live merchants are advertising in the columns of the Daily Democrat and you will profit by making your selections via that means. Eight hundred of the 2.000, millionaires in the I’nited States are sous of preachers, according to the latest announcement of that greatest of till figure experts. Roger Babson. Now wouldn’t that jar you. after we have been led to believe all these years that the minister’s son was just sure not to get far financially? Just why forty per' cent of the millionaires should be those who were boys In the manse is not explained, but it is probably tri after'all t'«ai the teachings in thmhomr of the Godly is the greatest a*et a young man who is starting into busiue :> can have.

The campaigns are getting started I in the larger cities this week, but we ! notice that in most of tile smaller towns organization is just beginning and the real snap will probably not appear tor a few days. Election comes November 3rd and your duty on that day is au important one. perhaps more so that you feel it. Thw officials elected that day will serve , four years, fixing taxes, keeping up ; improvements, handling city funds, enforcing laws and otherwise taking care of those affairs closest home. The democratic ticket with George Krick for mayor; Mrs. Kauffman. I clerk: Mrs. Magley, treasurer and ■ Fred Aslibaucher, George Miller, Fred Dnn, O. L. Vance and Joe Hunter for couAciiuien, should appeal to the vol ers as one to be enthusiastically sup ported. On the theory that all proposed c: oss-country highways are fakes go; ten up, that some one or ones can collect expenses, the Bluffton Ban i tier declares they are fortunate to have been missed. Oftcr it is true that such organizations are planned by slickers who wish to exploit the territory through which they propose to mark the road, but the William ' Penn highway islty no means of that ' brand. The men back of it are high grade and know what they are doing It is not a goad marking propositioi but a road getting campaign, efforts : being directed towards securing cooperation of the state and federal com ' missions. Those who fail to see the advantages thus to be gained are not looking very far ahead. For the I benefit of the Banner which seems to l*e suffering from an attack of “soui grapes’’ we wish to also explain that not a dime has been asked for ano there is absolutely no graft back ot this proposition. It is simply ar organized effort to secure a pavet’ highway extending from coast U coast and if its lucky to be off suet a thoroughfare, Bluffton may slcej on until they find to get out of the | woods they will have to travel north to the Penn road. ++++++++ + + + + + + ■» * Big Features Os * * RADIO * * Programs Today * + ♦ + + + + <•♦ + + + + ♦♦•» WEDNESDAY’S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES (Copyright 1925 by United Press) 1 XVEAF, New York. 492. and hookup including WEEI.

vat ion department. The men. with Mack Jordan, also of near Salem, were arrested by state wardens in April while dynamiting Blue River. Jordon pleaded guilty and was assessed a fine and cost amounting to $269. He elected to lay it out and is now serving time at the Penal Farm. The two brothers continued the case finally obtaining a change of venue to another county. Advises to the conservation department show the jury was out only ten minuses when it returned the verdict against them,, and assessed fines of $250. each with coats. Stabs- game wardens arc exerting every effort to stop dynamiting, for this and seinyig. coupled with pollution from some canning plants, does uore to deplete public waters of the date of aquatic life than all other orms of violations combined. The date, through the conservation departwent'annually raises many thousands if fish which are turned loose in the. dream* and lakes.,and the result is' Ihfit Indiana's snperior fishing is attracting thousands of out-of-state folks to this commonwealth. —. o CHURCH ANNOUNCEMENT The Prayer meeting of the Methodist chyrch will be held tonight at he usual hour.

URGES COOPERATION J Unified Program Os Welfare OrCanizationa And Community Cheets Recommended By WcHare Worker Vincennes, Ind., Oct. 7. Rccotnmending; a unified program and n combined effort on the part of the welfare organizations with the community chest, if it muterlulizes, Mi»» iJny UoUiiw, secretary of the Family Welfare Society, of Evansville, opened the speaking program on the last <lay of the Indiana State Conference of social Work today, held bare under the auspices of the State Board of t’luirities. "The formation of the Community Chest has its advantages and disadvantages, " Miss Collins declared. ■ Where the Family Society is firmly est.iblished with a dependable list , of anunal contributors, it bas consid- : erable to risk in the Chest movement i which is not yet well organized On the other hand, however, where through untrained and inefficient management the Family Society is weak, the co-operation of a young and lust Chest organization would pull it through successfully. "There Is the further consideration that the Chest may make It possible ! to bring an experienced worker to handle a critical situatiou which might be beyond the control ot aji individual board,” she said. , "Tfie Chest has its draw backs, in- > asmuch. that the Chest committees often draw iron bands around the expenditures of an organisation with the idea that they are fine business I men in keeping down expense, but in reality they are doing harm.” ! Declaring that the plea ot insanity in criminal case has fallen into disI credit through suspicion on the part • of the public tliat it is merely a trick, ! Dr. Mux A- Bahr, superintendent of the Central Indiana Hospital for Insane said that in his opinion a study i of the subject will prove that a majority of the men so found insane have, in reality, been unbalanced mentally. / —io ITo Eliminate Dangerous Crossing In Marion County Indtanapoß . 11..1..

£ I Welcome Home>ffiM MacMillan Arctic Expedition Zenith™ Week October to October 9A Our Greetings to Commander MacMillan ' I and Commander McDonald—home from the Arctic. The story of the MacMillan Arctic Expedition—"the greatest expedition of modem times” —is also the story of another triumph for Zenith radio. “Zenith” was MacMillan’s exclusive choice because he had found by actual experience that it gave sure, * dependable results. Zenith radio in the Arctic established new records for long-distance communication —penetrated the heretofore impenetrable Auroral Band. On this, his latest voyage to the Frozen North, Zenith radio enabled him to keep in instant touch with America, Europe, New Zealand—to all parts of the world—and t-o send back word of his discoveries to the civilized world. What was good enough for MacMillan—the radio he relied upon and never found wanting —is good enough for you. At the time we welcome home the MacMillan Expe- \ dition we welcome also the opportunity to demonstrate Zenith—"the best there is tn radio ’ —tn your home—at your convenience.
