Residents Called To Service Os Their Community (Continued from page one) Testing Associations , etc- Consequently fairs of today have a niche of their own in community life. The Northern Indiana fair should be a strictly business institution aud a big event for every farmer in Adams county. The main purpose of the successful fair is to help the farmer and breed-j er of our county and make it possible for them to have a place where they can show and market their products and exchange ideas for the benefit of all. This county cannot

hope to keep pace with its neighbors unless we receive the educational benefit which comes from, such an institution. It will give to us better farming methods, better live stock, better hornet :ind byStter tchrtrffc There cgn be no greater educational factor effecting the rural territory especially, than a well planned county fair with a definite educational program. We will gain the good will of our entire trade area and develop* a better understanding among our citizenship. We will have furnished a show window for the products of the entire county to be shown, advertised, and even marketed. We will have established what is fast being recognized as one of the greatest educational institutions effecting the ruril people and benefit both farmer and business man. We will have made possible an equal "Get Together** of rural and city dwellers that will bring about a better understanding between ihrtn and a feeling of cooperation that will mean much for the good of us all. We will have spent one week of the year selling our coifhty and community instead ot merchandise only. We know that if Decatur and Adams county should fail to realize the importance of this campaign that they will pass up the greatest opportunity fiat has ever come to them to make this ermmun ty potentially greater. We know that this is Adams county's om- great oppqrtunity to show to the entire surrounding erritory that this community is really the farmers' friend and willing to help him build this great "Once a year edneatkraal school” As a builder ot community spirit, a fair has no equal. The renewiqg annually of friendships between the various sections ot the county; the strengthening of the spirit of cooperation; the get to gether spirit—all these things go far in creating a broader minded and more progressive community. Any community without a true spirit of pride tor it.; c’tizenship and resources . is in a stagnation stage. Such a state ot result*. Au investment in the Greatiiiiud in variably produ<a;B disastrous er Northern Indiana Fair project, while not made foi pecuniary profit wII return a handsome dividend (hrough the building of a better com muntty m wh'ch to live. A city or county is what its residents make it. No communty will ever become gj-eat through excuses or alibis. The ownership of Bellmont Park by the people of Adams county not only means a greater county fair but the fact it being located on tbe ’new William Penn highway makes It most desirable where other amusements can be added thus making a park useful the entire summer season.

Court House Appear* For Defendant In the <ase of Elizabeth William vs. Grant William, attorneys DeVoss and DeVoss appeared tor the defendant. Applies For Suit Money In the case of George Schrank vs Rosa Dettlnger Schrank, the defend ant filed an application for an allowance for suit money. Guardian Appointed In the case of Alta Leidy vs. Virgil Lcidy. the court found the defendant [to be an infirm person .and incapable of managing his estate and that a guardian should be appointed. Alta Lcidy was appointed? guardian and she filed bond in the sura of $2,01)0 To Sell Property In the estate of Albert A Acker, the administrator was authorized to sell the personal property at private sale- 1 « <• MARRIAGE LICENCES Albert Ewel, laborer, Preble township. to Rose Berning.

LANSDOWNE’S WIDOW (JIVES HER TESTIMONY (Continued from page one) rip 'was inspired by "purely political motives" and said her statements had been substantiated by the reco 4 ytf the inquiry thus far. Cite* Husband’* Letter Mrq. Lansdowne cited a letter wr.tten by her husband August 4. < 1925, protesting against the long westward voyage and suggesting that a trial rip be taken to Detroit, to test any wssible deficiencies in the ship. She also mentioned the reply ot the navy bureau of navigat on refusing her husband's request on the ground that the department could see uo reason for such a trial trip Reading from a brief prepared statement, Mrs Lansdowne also said that her husband sought to have the trip postponed because he knew violent storms were frequent in the Ohio region at that time of year "This protest was also overruled by the department,” she said. "My husband belieed that inasmuch as the Shenandoah was the only navy dirigible suitable for war use, it should confine its activities to war maneuvers entirely,” Mrs. -Lansdowne told the court.
