ATTEND THE DEMOCRATIC MEETING AT HEADQUARTERS MONDAY NIGHT. Mrs. Magley and Mrs. Kauffman » are worthy and well qualified. Vote for them Tuesday. Don’t make any crazy bets on the results in Indianapolis. That young fellow. Walter Meyers, has been com- < ing along at less than a two-minute clip the past ten days and looks like a winner. “Ain’t that wonderful?’’ STICK TO KRICK. ————— A council composed of such men as O. L. Vance, Fred Linn. Joe Hunter. Fred Afhbaucher ami George Miller will not go wrong. They have the same good interest in this community that you have and they will serve you well. Remember the smoker at democratic headquarters Monday night. It will be the dosing meeting of the campaign and an important one for at this time the plans for the election day organization, to get the vote out. will be completed. Come up and have a good time and help in continuing this city along the path of nano progress. We have not heard of a single ugly thing said about any candidate on either ticket in this campaign and that’s as it should be. They are all honest citizens, striving to make this a better place in which to live aud we hope that not a single thing arises during the next few days to injure the feelings or the good name of any one. We don’t believe the public generally likes the ’’slight-of-hand’’ campaign, made under cover of darkness, with a campaign card as the only document or promise. The voter prefers to know just what he or she is voting for. The democratic platform appears again in todays paper and you arc asked to read it carefully and to vote for those who promise you something real and tangible. STICK TO KRICK. ~ Join the parade tonight. You will enjoy it <rnd you may secure one of the prizes. Its to be a noisy, happy, uniqu,. and amusing event and you should get a place along the Unc of march if you decide not to get in the parade. We just have to forget dull care occasionally. The children want to have a good time aud it won’t hurt you older l)i( them in it. Callithump with the Call!thumpians tonight. Several miles of ornamental lights, several miles of new street... huge improvements at the city, a reduced tax rate, a well governed city, a good police force, aud an ug-to-da*e fire equipment with an excellent fire department. payment of old bonds, moyey in the bank, a swimming pool, a live, going, clean aud fine city. That’s a record that ought to bring forth the unqualified endorsement of

Spooks aud goblins and witches will ride out tonight. -Properly conducted the celcbra- ' tion can be a source of pleasure and delight and there is no reasu for destruction or theft of property. Au extra police force will guard the city and you young fellows who seem to derive pleasure from injuring property are warued that arrests will follow any such actions tonight. Have a good time, get in the parade, be one of the spooks, but don’t violate the laws. STICK TO KRICK. Municipally owned public utilities are not always profitable or desirable but when conducted as the Decatur plant has been for a number of years, there is no question about it. We have a model plant now. It is making money and here's the important part of it —our rates are lower than jn most cities and will most probably be reduced still further at an early date. The reason is that much intention has been given to the operation and the financing of the proposition. The most important thing in the coming election is to guarantee a continuation of the policies which have proven wise. Stick to Krick. Remember that eleventh hour statements regarding an election don’t count. They arc unfair and the voters have learned long ago not to pay ■ much attention to those things which cannot be answt*fed because of time The coming city election is perhaps more important than you think. The officials chosen next Tuesday will serve you four years and during that time a number of important matters are sure to arise. For a year or two past you have heard frequently that I this is one of the best of the smaller cities in the middle west. We be- 1 lieve w e are just cu the eve of a real growth. Let's keep things moving. The campaign >s about over. It has been an unusually quiet one and the only one we have ever known where' one party did not issue a single itatement of what they would do if elect- • ed, announce a platform or hold a single public meeting. We believe no one should be elected to office unless they declare to the public the , policies which they will try to carry out. Thats the advantage of political parties, for always back of the promises of individuals stand an organ ization which can be called upon when necessary to see that those promises are kept. In this campaign the democrats have annoufKrd a brief, sen-' sible and worth while platform. They have done this during the past sev 1 oral campaigns and each administrat!on has kept the faith. The candidates have appeared before the voters in precinct meetings and have emphasized their intentions by declaring themselves. You know what they want to do. you must feel that they have your interests at heart and that they will make an honest effort to keep this city moving, with the lowest tax rat e possible. There seems to be no doubt of the result and it remains only for voters to go to the polls next Tuesday and cast their ballots.

Stewart Gandy, figed two, slipped on a rug at the C. 8 Niblick home and fell, striking his head against the side board and Inflicting an ugly gash in his forehead, which required several stiUbes to close. b • IN MEMORIAM Charles S. Niblick was Iwrn in Decatur. Indiana, on October 19. 1848, an<| while still in the vigor of his powprs and success was beckoning him on to greater future, disease laid Its relentness hand upon him and marked hiiuX o1 ’ own - depleted strength would not permit of his retmvery and life slowly ebbed away and went out on the morning of October 28, 1925. We. his fellow members of the Board of Directors of the American Security Company of Decatur, knew him long, intimately aud well and therefore hold in high appreciation his splendid qualities of mind and 1 heart which characterized his useful life, do unite in this brief memorial. On account of his courteous and I kindly disposition in his intercouse with business associates, as well as t the general public, he was indeed fortunate, in that, because of his kindly nature lie was not iucliucd to i provoke the kinb of antagonism which engenders bitterness, and therefore through life he enjoyed a 1 marked degree of personal friendly j regard bjt his business associates. His was not a one sided life. His talents were varied and while his life was largely devoted to banking interests. he gave largely of his time, means and talent to public affairs, and to numerous business enterprises, wherein his conservative judgment dnd business sagacity was invited and appreciated. I In his church and its various agencies with all of which he was actively engaged during his whole life he gave his best efforts. j It was his generous consideration for others that became habitual and instinctive with bini and a part of his very nature; and excluded from his mind all base considerations for himself and moved him to give his life freely.for the good of his fellow-1 man and the community generally.
