The biggest thing about helping a community is to have a „ program and work it out. ( r "' f About the surest proof that Adams f county is the best in the state with ( thriving towns and villages, is the delinquent tax list recently published « and compared to those of (filler counties. There were but forty-four ; items on the list here while in Jay * county about 150 pieces of property 5 were offered for sale, besides twice that number on ditch assessments. r y The citurch meetings which have just closed in Decatur and surround- t ing territory did g’eat good, arousing t the members to more active work, establishing greater interest and 1 bringing new members. Reports show ‘ that, every church which took part in tlie program added to the member- ] ship, the Reformed church in this city yesterday added forty-one to 1 their membership and other churches 1 /will have similar days. I —TO | Over a hundred tickets have been sold for the Industrial Association's annual banquet this evening at the Knights of Pythias hall. Mr. Cole- , man. of the Extension Department, I Purdue university, will be the speaker, there will be a general discussion 1 of matters of interest, the election of officers and a good time. It's important that all who desire the improvement of this community take a part. Tom Adams, able editor of the Vincennes Commercial and one of those kind who refuses to wear a halter and in not afraid to speak out. when he has something on his mind, declares that the endorsement of Senators Watson and Robinson because of their vote on the World Court bill, was not only wrong but that “there was some uuaccoantable reason” why they should take the stand they did. He probably expressed the opinion of a lot of the editors with less nerve. •The story of Colonel Edward M. House, the silent man, who beyond question was the strongest force behind Woodrow Wilson, both as candidate and president, is now being given the public through a number of newspapers. Needless to say it is an interesting tale from which you will get the idea of how preoidentß are made and of the many entangle-

Colonel House, a Texan, who had made a number of governors in his state, who knew politics and played the game well, who had no desire other than to be the man behind the gun, was and is an unusual character who has played an interesting part in American affairs and his autobiography will attract more attention here and overseas than that of any man who has been written about recently. The flippant remark is made often that this is the open season for candidates, and that Is true. It is seriously fortunate, too — not fortunate for the candidates, who must go through the campaign in the face of all mayor of statements, half-state-ments and mis-statements, but forunate for the public, if it will only take advantage of its opportunities and its rights. It is time now to begin thinking about issues and candidates. This applies in the township, where good men are needed for trustees and advisory boards, and it is true up tha line to the congressmen and senators. Politics is public business. Electing an officer is not a matter of doing somebody a favor, but a matter of selecting men to take charge of public affairs. It is difficult to know whom to vote for if we don't know the issues from township to state. The people should begin informing themselves now. They should be guided, not by prejudice, hate or the spirit of revenge, but by good com mon sense.—Huntington Press.

We made a irip from Denver to this place in record time. We met “Speed” Mansfield. the speed and endurance tester for the Chrysler automobile. He is known throughout the U. S. A. and he is a dandy fellow, about 35 years old. x He’s married and lives at Denver. We told him about ourselves and he said that he’d try and get us into something. He knows an exColorado senator, so through this exsenator’s directions we landed at the bis steel works here, where 4500 men are employed. The G. E. company is installing u three million dollar power house here at the steel works so through our former connections and my letter of recommendation we landed a good job, helping with all different kinds of installation of motors and wiring. The work will not be so very hard, and something different all tlie time. We will stay at the big Y.M.CJA., opposite the factory. We will start in at $4.50 per day and an advancement as soon as we show that we take an interest. We won't start until possibly Wednesday or Thursday. 1 think that we are sure lucky to land this, as hey start work next week,. Thin automobile man is attempting to establish a world's record Feb. 20. when he drives from Denver to Los Angeles and back in a car without stopping. He wants us to go with him, picking us up here.

Smooth running from the go—Automatic Heat Control is an exclusive Buick feature. Easier steering—Buick’s 5-control-surface steering gear is the most expensive and most efficient type today.For Safety’s Sake Buick surrounds you with every ordinary protection, and then adds Buick protection: Buick dependability, which takes you and brings you back, on time, all the time. Buick mechanical 4-wheel brakes, with no liquid in them to expand, contract or leak away. And Buick Controllable Beam Headlights, With, steering wheel control, which make night driving a pleasure. For Economy’s Sake No othercar has the “Sealed Chassis'* and the “Triple Sealed Engine.” The “Sealed Chassis” lowers operating costs by enclosi *very operating part inside a d .i . roof, oil-tight housing, while “Triple Seals” close every engine point of entry to dirt and the wear dirt causes. For Value’s Sake At present prices, Buick with all of its added comfort, safety, and economy, is easily the greatest automobile value in the world.
