Montpelier, Indiana, has landed a shovel factory which will employ a thousand men and which ought to make that town come out of its slump which has been on since the oil business in that section let up. Chilly days again and while we may complain some because of it the crops seem to be enjoying it all with tndication that there ill be a bountiful supply of farm products this year, so lets not b e too loud in our protests. Decatur has an opportunity to land a factory or two if we get right down to business and go after them and we need the impetus that such a movement would inspire, to say nothing of the benefits which come from securing a new industry to employ the men of the community and bring more in. Lets go to it boys and stay on the job until wc put it over. R. Earl Peters, former Adams county man, made his first appearance as democratic state chairman in the convention yesterday , and acquitted himself in such a manner that he gained the confidence of every delegate and the thousands at the meeting. He has closed his desk at Fort Wayne and will devote all his tiipe to the work of leading his party to victory next November. 1 •— The Adams county delegation to the state convention worked in unison and made an honest effort to represent what they believed were the desires of the voters of the county. David J. Schwartz who served on the district sub-committee on resolutions expressed his beliefs and his ideas on the farm relief problems wereeffective. The delegation returned well pleased with the results obtained. While this county favored John E. Fredricks, of Krrkotno, as the candidate for United States senator and the delegates voted straight through for him they feel that the selection of .Mr. Stump was the best solution, that he won on his merits and will be a strong candidate. He is an able campaigner, a wiuuer in politics, a splendid young man with every qualification and will assist in perfecting a campaign which will carry to every voter in the state an argument of good sense. It was an old fashioned convention in which the delegates took matters into their own hands and disregarding any plans of the candidates or their managers voted for Stump when the break came after the third ballot had been taken. Mrs. Alice Stoops, •formerly of this city and a delegate from Pike county started the ball rolling when she asked to change the Pike county vote and gave it all to Stump. Her suggestion seemed tc electrify the delegates for county rafter county immediately followed 'and for a half hour the conventior was in disorder. Finally after Stumi bad received fifty more votes that was necessary tor a majority, Mr Cullop moved that his nomiuatibn b< made unanimous. The convention wai

The plutform adopted was one which should sell the people and the leaders seemed desirous of doing the wisest things for the party. • Unlighted vehicles on Indiana's highways are a night menace which we refer to the attention of the b county and state authorities.

Authorities Unable To Determine Title For Royalty’s Newest Babe Loudon —(United Press) —A little controversy has arisen over the suggestion made authoritatively by the semi-official London Tinies that the new arrival in the Royal Family will , bear the title, H. It. H. the Princess So-and-so “of York.” , Her father and mother, the Times . argues, are the Duke and Dutchess of York, hence her title will be “of York” since “according to custom the chil- . dren of a Royal Duke who is a son of i the Sovereign are known by courtesy as Princes or Princesses of the palace from which he takes his title.’’ And the Times cites the case of the late Queen Victoria who was known as ' "Princess Victoria of Kent" since her parents were the Duke and Duchess of Kent. B But the geneologitral purists criti- ? known as an authorit yon heraldic cize this suggestion. One of them I and similar matters for many years ’ insists that the practice, though "folc lowed habitually by a Royal family in recent generations,"is illogical and historically incorrect. He argues: B “As the youngest princess stands so near to the throne, it is to be hoped ’’ that she will not be called ‘Princess *' So-and-So (whatever her Christian II name) of York. It is quite incorrect to do so . . . This child is a Princess n of the United Kingdom, and there is no ‘Duchy of York’ of which she can 6 possibly be'a Princess. Her father’s k title is a Dukedom, and not a Duchy, e and there is, of course, a world of dis- - fcreuce between the two.” n c I1. Marriage License a. O. V. Doling and Mary C. Stonei- burner.

FRANK 0. LOWDEN TO VISIT DENMARK Former Illinois Governor To Study Co-operative Farm .Movement New York, June 4—(United Pre»») —Frank O, Lowden, agriculturist, politician and presidential possibility, Is sailing tomorrow for Denmark to watch his pet hobby—co-operative farm movement—in action. Lowden arrived hero today from Chicago. The former governor ofi Illinois, who within the last few! months has risen in ostsem of the' agricultural district of the middle ] west and who has been mentioned, through the Grange states as a possible farmers'} candsdsite Ik>r president in 1928, was silent us to politics. “I am interested in agriculture and that is absorbing my whole attention now,” Lowden said. •'This visit to Denmark is Just to further my knowledge of the co-oper-ative farm movement. In Denmark it has reached a greater height of success than any place else in the world,” he continued. Lowden parried‘all questions conjoining politics and merely smiled when told of reports coming from lowa that he was being boomed there as the farmers' candidate for the republican nomination for president in 1928. He didn't even care to discuss the agricultural situation. “It is such a big question, so imifiirtnrft. .that tjiere isnY sufflirient time now to go into all the details in connection with it,” the former governor said. Lowden will return in two months from Denmark and will go directly to his model farm. Sinnissippi, on the banks of Rock river, in Illinois, where there will be a meeting of some 2,000 bankers and farmers at which time the question of farm relief will be taken up. o_ GEORGE WHITE'S SCANDALS In Fort Wayne, Sunday A mighty interesting event is the engagement of George White's Scandals, considered the best of all of his revues, which comes to the Majestic Theatre Fort Wayne on Sunday matinee and ijjght of this week, the matnee starting at 3 o'qjock. The chorus members of the "Scandals" can actually dance, as will be demonstrated in the big “Charleston dance number in the first act. In the early days of the theatre the chorus girl was supposed to dance, and she did, but the vogue soon lapsed and finally through disuse vanished entirely from the American stage. The chorus girl of the ordinary musical comedy is chosen primarily for her ability to wear smart clothes, or to show the contour of her ankle. George White has long been familiar with the inability of the native chorus girl to dance —if not inability at least unwillingness—so when arranging for his new revue he hit upon a novel innovation. He decided upon a genuine chorus, one that could do everything and then in unison and with actual rythm. How well he has succeeded will be demonstrated when his big revue is shown in Fort Wayne Sunday. , H -1 0 ■ Miss Mayme Deininger spent the day in Fort Wayne.
