Where is that fellow who said we wouldn't have any summer and that crops would be ruined by mid summer frosts? If you arc interested in the organization of ths Decatur Country club, attend the meeting at the Industrial rooms tonight, when the board of governors will be elected. The Decatur Country Club will organize tonight and plans will start immediately for a program of picnics, afternoon parties, golf tournaments and other events. Arc y° u playing golf? Its a tine game because it has many hooks and turns which remind you of life. In playing the game over the links of life remember that the mental hazzards are the worst on the course, as they are on the actual links. The crops are coming along line and dandy. The wheat has ripened rapidly the past few days and corn is growing several inches a day. If the farmers don’t have to give it away, they will be alright after harvest. What worries us is how the president is going to get any time to fish if he takes care of all the I .sincss on his summer program, but a president probably shouldn't expect to get clear away from the job of running this government with her hundred and twenty-five million people.

Do it today and help a good cause along. Sweden has passed a law providing that students must first pass an examination in swimming before they can take exams in their studies. The law goes further and provides no one can teach or hold public office unless tie can swim. It may be foolish but the probabilities are that a decade of this will reduce the loss of life by drowning to a minimum and that's something worth doing. The death toll among motorists over the Fourth was exceedingly large and accidents were numerous. "Many of them were perhaps unavoidable but moat of them were due to the carelessness of the driver of his own car or that of the other one. It would seem that these terrible smash-ups with the awful results would cause drivers to stop, look and listen, to drive carefully, to watch the other fellow, but it doesn't seem to except for those who participate. You still have half a year in which to put it over in 1926.

We have heard many strangers Inquire how such a wonderful pool was provided. Its a line thing for the community. One report says that Col. Andrews has resigned as "dry czar" and another denies I'. Any way he has sailed for Europe where he expects to do some work, just what we don t know. From what he is credited with saying lie has evidently com hided he can do the job as well over there as ho can here since the dry i?) congress did not see fit to B* ve him the legislation he claims is necessary to stop the Inflow of liquor from its source. We need a couple of hundred more members to the Benjamin Franklin highway association. At a meeting of the executive board at Van Wert yesterday the route was adopted entirely to San Francisco. It follows route seven through Indiana, route eight through Illinois, runs from there to Omaha and then over federal roads thirty and forty to Salt latke City and San Francisco. Maps will be published in a short time and general publicity given the new highway which will be the shortest coast to coast route with the least elevations The road will be marked and an effort made to secure assistance from the government in making it the very best highway in the entire country. —o — ■ TWENTY YEARB AGO TODAY » N ' ~ A From th# Dally Democrat Filo I H Twenty Yean Ago Thia Day r fl * July 7 —Representatives of the G R. & I. here to propose switch to the city power plant.

July 7—(United Press)— Germany could at once become independent of food imports if her inhabitans changed their diet and revert to eating raw or slightly-cooked food, according to Professor Earhat Friedbeiger. director of the Institute for hygienics at Greifswald University Friedberger discovered that slightly cooked food satiated him more than larger quantities of well-cooked morsels. To make sure that this was not due merely to personal inclination on his part, he has been investigating this phenomenon) and arrived at the conclusion that it holds good alike for man and beast. During bis experiments with a family of rats, Friedberger established that rodents fed from their birth with slightly-cooked food grow quicker than those dieting on well-cooked nourishment. Within fifty days, the first group had out-weighed the second by almost one hundred per cent. Later experiments with rats were conduct*<l with three different kinds of nourishment: Well-cooked, slight-ly-cooked and raw. Here the eaters of raw food won the prize. Even with an addition of vitamines to their regular diet the other two categories lagged far behind. At present. Fridcberger is conducting experiments with pigs in order to prove that with small quantities of t raw food better fattening results ean be obtained than with cooked food, which hitherto was considered the superior method. | o I Billy Goes Fishing For Catfish But A Big Bass Gets Hooked | WiMiam J. J Bell, often called, "Billy”, today laid claim to the title of fishing champ of Decatur, as the 1 -ini <>i his rail li :.f a I ' '. four-pound, big mouth bass. Billy was still-fishing in the north stone quarry, at the north end of the city, using a “night crawler" for bait in trying to hook a few catfish. The big bass spoke out of turn and grabbed the crawler, hook and all. Billy, who is at least two feet shorter than the average man, but every inch a man. had to exert all of his strenght to keep the big fish from pulling him into the water, but he finally landed it! ' and lost no time in getting up town) to tell his story, exhibiting the proof of his catch. o — ■ Young Jap Kills Self 1 Evansville, Ind .
