The usual number occurred in Saturday's football games. The Army defeated Notre Dame, Ohio nosed out the great Columbia team, lowa won over Illinois and Holy Cross took Harvard. That's what makes it interesting, you never can tell just what will happen in college sports. By the way, you aren't overlooking the Calithumpian parade on Hallowe'en or neglecting your preparations to take part, are you? Us a good idea to furnish entertainment for those who gather here to shop and trade and the event is sure to furnish a lot of fun and pleasure. Help make it a big success. Us good to play once in a while. Senator Ralston had been laid to rest and now begins the scramble for his place in Washington. They may find as good an orator or as good a politician but they will most likely not find one who will prove a better friend to the people. Men and women from every walk of life, regardless of polities have expressed but one opinion and that is that the nation will be poorer without the services of this great public character. Decatur is a moral city and by *hat we mean that the laws are wel! enforced here and that our people are well behaved. Few cities in all the land can boast of better regulations, less crime or a better people. We defy any person to disprove these statements and we resent any intimation that Decatur is not the best city in the state in every way. Our police force is efficient, w e have a splendid Srt department, we have fcave the equipment for protection of property and we congratulate those who hav e been in authority and who have brought about the conditions existing. — m i The Rt. Rev. John F. Noll, bishop of the Fort Wayne Catholic diocese made his first official visit here yesterday, confirming a class of boys and girls and assisting in the dedication of the handsome new school. The bishop has many friends here, both in and out of his church, who recognize in him a man of broad ideas, * splendid ability and pleasing personality. He wa* for many years publisher and editor of “Our Sunday » Visitor," at Huntington and was recog nized there as one of the progressive leaders in every way. He is a speaker of ability, has a voice which filled the large auditorium and a direct manner of saying things in a convincing manner. Two weeks from next Tuesday is election day, an important occasion for every cltiian and every taxpayer, for those elected that day will handle large sums es money each year during the next four years. They will fix the tax rate, operate the city plant, spend your money. George Krick. the candidate for mayor has had years of experience as a manufacturer, knows how to conduct affairs, how to buy material, how- to save money for the city. For four years be has served In an important capacity on the city council and if elected will begin his duties January Ist., with a knowledge of what Is befoVe him- Supported by Lee Vance, Fred Finn, Joe

J Solution of Yesterday's Russia >«e ai i Jrj - , ..— Hunter, George Miller and Fred Ashhaucher as councilmen and by Mrs, • Maglev as treasurer and Mrs. Kauffman as clerk, you may feel assured of excellent management of public affairs. This ia a democratic city politically, that party having a majority at several hundred in every general election. During the past twelve years democrats have been in charge of affairs in the city and we point to the record made by them with pride. We

'• doubt If there can be found in the e entire state a better one. We are paying off the city debt and progressing, , we have a municipal light, power and s wa'er plant that is unexcelled any s where, we have built streets, added t several miles of ornamental lights, built a swimming pool and reconstructed the city plant and at the '< same time reduced the tax rate and • have money in the treasury. That is ' certainly the kind of management t which will receive your endorsement 1 at the polls. Two weeks from to--1 morrow is election day and it is time 1 that the voters be apprised of the : policies of candidates. We believe most of you know the facts but there 's always danger of laxity in voting unless a campaign of sufficient interest to arouse the voters is made. There should be several public meetings held and there should be an organization to get out the rote which will not permit a slip. Yesterday was, as the speakers at t the dedicatory exercises expressed it, ; 1 a gala day for the members of St. 1 Mary's Catholic church of Decatur, marking as it did the realization of i dream of years and the culmination of great effort by Rev. Seimetz, his issistaut. Rev. Peters, and by many of the Aembers of the congregation. Rev. Louis A. Tiernan. of Cincinnati, and Bishop Noll, both expressed the highest praise for the accomplishment anil declared the wonderful school building unexcelled in few cities. Bishop Noil made the statement that in all of Europe not a single exclusive parochial school buildiug could be found to compare with it and so we say there was a genuine cause for celebrating the dedication with • smiles. It has been a big task and will continue to be so Tsut with the enthusiasm so far shown and the determination of those in charge it will prove a success and a worthwhile asset to the community. Rev. Tiernan who has assisted in a great many dedications, his special duties beiqg in such work, wag outspoken in his praises for the work doue here, as was Bishop Noll. The exercises were largely attended and thoroughly enjoyed. * Big Features Os * * RADIO ♦ > * Programs Today * 1 MONOAY’S RADIO FEATURES t KFAB, Linceln. 341. 8:30 p. m <C.

But one which money-minded men so frequently abuse. Not all investments |iuy in gold, some pay in i>eace of mind. And some in happy memories of days when we were kind. ljfe gives us countless dividends iu payment fpr our deeds. The* marigolds are coupons which we cut from planted»seeds. The good will of our neighbors is a joy which we collect From having neighbored with them in a wav they could respect. Our children are investments, too, in which our worth shall show. For seldom ’tis by luck or chance good men and women grow.

We are investors, one and all, by each a choice is made. Some ripk their lives in art and some invest them in a trade. And who shall give his best to life shall reap his dividends in peace of mind and happiness, the v ami trust of friends; Jim wh» invests in ' selfishness, iu cunning or in shame. Shall find, however filled his purse, he's played a losing game. Bleak poverty of spirit is a failue *1 hit is worse Than the error of wrong judgment which brings poverty to purse. For money may be squandered, and a stock not worth its cost. But a good name lives forever and a kind deed's never lost. So I'd invest my hands and brain in all life's finer things — And seek the compensation which that sort of venture brings.

Tuning Up Tha Old Set The Kudin (teuton ia now in full swing, and to insure the best results from u sat that tins baen In use for ' some time, several things should be looked after A list of these follows: Go over your aerlul and grouud system, resoiderlng all joints If necessary. Clean the insulators, amt inspect the lightning arreßter. Tighti cn the ground clamp, and make sure you have a good, clean connection on the water pipe, or whatever you may be using as a ground A good aerial and ground are necessaiy for good reception, and the little time that it lakes to go over same, will be welt spent; After you have' things on the outside in A t shape, you are ready to begin on the set, etc., on the inside. Every owner of a set using a storage "A” battery, should have a hydrometer, or in other words a battery tester. The cost of same ts not very much,’ and by using it you can tell, at all times, the exact condition of your battery. In all probability the battery has set through the sntnmer months without receiving much attention. It should be filled with sufficient distilled water to cover the plates ahout one-half inch.. Never allow the water to get' below the plates, as to do so raayv prove harmful to the battery. Clean the terminals good, and give them a good coating of vasollne, to prevent corrosion. If you are using dry tell "A" batteries, test them with an j ammeter, and if they are down, re- ’ place them with new ones. Next conies the "B" batteries — another thing every fan should have i as regulhj' equipment is a voltmeter i for testing the "B's". Using the volt-ji meter, place one terminal on the i negative post, and the other on the i l>ositive. if a battery tests below 15 and a 45-volt below 25 they should be replaced with fresh ones. ;
