IZZ MlCUigan Aveuue, Have you voted? We honestly believe that it is a duty which no citizen should dodge, its the right of suffrage which goes with a republic, its your time to speak and you should do so. You folks who believe the world is going to the dogs and that the teachings of the Bible are out of style please stand up and tell us why the American churches gained over 800,000 in membership the past year. The mid-West Review says, “And Jim Watson who has been both for and against the World dourt will probably win in Indiana. Jim’s motto

is—The people can’t change any faster than I can.” It remains only to compile the returns, complete the organization, get our coats off and go into the campaign in a manner that will assure success. The democrats have an excellent chance to win in Indiana this year if they will organize and present their issues in the proper manner. A truck load of old fashioned liquor was’ captured at Indianapolis and Ralph Clark and his wife, who claim Detroit as their home were arrested for transporting liquor. They admitted it was to have been used on election day but since they refuse to say who had ordered it, the bosses can't figure whether this will change results or not or how. Work has begun on the new golf course and within a short time we will have a country club of which the people of this community may justly feel proud. Mr. G. -T. Telford, expert golf links builder is here ami at work and when Mr. Schulte has announced his plans we arte sure the splendid

UIB piano ” folks here will lend every support necessary. The strike in England is serious for that country. More than five million men have quit work and traffic of about every kind is consequently tied up and the end is not yet. No difference which side wins out finally such a condition is always one “which means losses and suffering and from which it requires the nation months to recover. We congratulate the members of the Evangelical church of this city and the community in general upon the return of Rev. Loose as pastor for another year. Rev. Loose during his residence here has proven his worth as a splendid minister who stands for the best things for the community, who is broad of mind, earnest of purpose, able and untiring. Decatur needs such men as Rev. Loose. ’ Worries six thousand years ago were quite similar to those of today evidently. An Egyptian tablet re'cently found and now on exhibition in the imperial museum at Constantinople refills: —“Our earth is degenerate in these latter days. There are signs that the world is coming to an end. Children uo longer obey their parents. Everybody wants to write a book. The end of the world is manifestly drawing near.” The city council will fix the dates for cleaning up the city at the meeting tonight and this is certainly one campaign in which every one can enter with enthusiasm. You uouldnt care to live in unsightly environments.

. cleanliness. Lets hop to it. A dozen houses are now under construction in this city and plans for a number of more are being made. A number of these are being financed through the loan associations. We . call your attention again to the fact . that a safe and easy and sure way to help this city is to take stock in a loan association. Ten dollars a month for a few years will bring you back a thousand dollars saved and will permit some one to own his own home, the city to grow and a splendid investment any way you figure it. The demand for vision tests in

granting licenses to drive automobiles is likely to grow. A survey covering a period of twelve months and dealing .with 2,000 automobile accident cases reveals these facts: Out of 600,000 licensed drivers, 66,000 have visual efficiency of 64 per cent, without glasses; 12,000 drivers are defective in color perception of red and green: 10,000 are deficient in field of vision, and 7,400 are blind in one eye. Is it any wonder that there are accidents. that drivers misunderstand signals at night and “preventable” injuries are not prevented? One of these days we will look back in amazement at the time when visual efficiency was not required of automobile drivers. —Madison Courier. .. .. .y O XKSKSSSKSSSHSSHKS a TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY 3 X H X From the Daily Democrat File ■ X Twenty Years Ago This Day K X " UXIISiIKSSSSSaSSSSS May 4—ln a red hot message to congress President.
