This splendid hoosier has footed them ■ levcral items and we are hoping and praying he does it again I n the battle he is now waging. fl A couple at Richmond packed up to move to the county infl 'irmary. *l'here was a rap at the door and the aged mother who I in-wenii wa< handed a special delivery letter which told her I hat asi ter had died in the east and bequeathed her the tidyfl mm of SlT.itbO.

Klepper, 9 Carmody, Krick. Linn. Tyndall and others have aided in secur--9 ing interest. It has all been fine and now it’s up to the rest of 9 us to show our appreciation by encouraging the boys and girls 9 "hen they come here for the “round-up.” The club work is 9 one of the best things being done in any community. 9 Self government, continued control of the city plant., better 9 facilities for the accomodation of industries, lower rates, a reflfliiced tax rate, adequate water supply and fire protection to I insure the lowest possible insurance rate, enforcement of the 9 a "s, efficiency in every department, is the proposed platform 9 °r the democratic candidates in Decatur, which should assure 9 them the support and cooperation of the great majority of the ■ voters.

When at our dinner hour I say. And oft this message must be borne. "The bank, my dear, called up today; You’re thirty dollars overdrawn!" She gives her lovely head a shake And answers with assurance strong, "There certainly is some mistake, I'm positive the bank is wrong.” When on the month’s first business day I carry home her balance sheet Which shows the sunt she's checked away And what is left in figures neat. “I know my check book’s right.’’ she cries, “This time I've watched it all along!" And as that tell tale chart she eyes She fairly shouts; ‘The bank is

Oct. t—(United Press) —Almost one hundred thousand people from all parts of the world immigrated to Brazil in 1924. bringing the total number of immigrants for this country during the last seventeen years up to 1.399.455. Immigration from’ Portugal during the seventeen-year period, 1908 to 1924. was far greater than that from any other country, with immigration from Spain following in second place. During this period 524,305 Portuguese. 257.638 Spanish and 227.453 Italians came to take tsp homes in thisq country. 81.741 Germans. 60.294 Turks and 54.018 Russians camo to Brazil during the same period. The record year for immigration was 1913, the year before the war, when 192 683 immigrants came to Brazil. In 1918 only 20,501 immigrants disembarked at Brazilian ports, but since then arrivals have increased steadily. o Many Used Cars at Bargain prices. Chevrolet Sales, 110 N. 3 street. 7-8-9

I have chosen mine long ago. and it seems to be taking the tricks. He speaks of Damon. Pythias. Romeo. Juliet, tlie dog and his master. That’s all ancient and gets tis nothing now as the world series are being played w ( . watch the scoreboard with pleasure. Mr. Smith has also been up twice ami whether he scored or not. the umpire has not yet decided. Now. as I go to bat. in the last half of the second inning, it matter not if T reach first, or third has,, or make a home run. It is heartening to know that the younger generation is taking an interest in better highways and that it is a real problem to solve. Recently, in a good road essay contest. conducted by Indiana Cniversity, an Indianapolis school girl won first honors with her essay on "Econonties Resulting From Highway Improve ments.’’ She showed that gOod roads resulted in direct economy in health, in marketing farm products, in the elmination of the middle man in selling. in improved schools, in saving to auto owners and various other factors of human. The fact that the good roads idea is permeating the life in schools and colleges means much. While there are a few who remonstrate and petition for injunctions against road improvements their tribe is growing less. Hood roads are I worth many times their cost, as actual calculations will show. They are the arteries that carry the life blood of the nation. They are vital factors of our existence. At the close of this inning. I want to repeat , the words of W. J. Bryan to Mr. Evans on Woodrow Wilson: “What better ending of his noble career than to die fighting for a good and noble cause." 1 could not wish for anything better for myself. Charles Magley.
