The Van Wert Community Clearing House has subscribed S4OO for the Franklin highway, that being the emount assessed against that county. Adams county is expected to pay, the same amount but so far we have ■ not been able to raise the amount. We need about seventyfive more members at on e dollar each. Won't •,ott please send in your dollar? Republican newspapers in Indiana -re trying to make an issue out of the world court and that’s funny. 1 Say. the world court belongs to you and to no one else. It was inaugurated by Mr. Harding and revived by Mr. Coolidge. Get off that stuff and talk about the farm relief, the tariff which makes many poor and a few rich and those things which are of interest. » In the eastern portion of the TJnlt- • ed States, they think of us as

“hicks" who know nothing and who are supposed only to contribute to their fortune's. The New Haven, Connecticut, Joflrnal - Courier, gets off this stuff: "We shall get along faster if we understand that no statesman from the remote west can deal intelligently with foreign questions. To them Europe and New Zealand mean the same. Their map is their own barn yard and they think of the Alps as a corn field. Talk to them of the new concept of world brotherhood and they will ask you the peu-e of hogs on the Chicago market and look into the sky for rain." •e— m.j s““ssb» The Fort Wayne News says "the grrincipal handicap is the inability •f the farmers to agree on a plan for relief.” Can you beat that for pre-election bunk? bordy the farmers are agreed and favor any bill which will lighten their load. Every farm organization in the country subscribed to the McNary-Haugen bill but it didn't do any good. What j’would be the use of the farmers (getting together now if it were possible and agreeing on the exact Wording of the bill? Th e senate and congress would dump it as soon as Mr. Coolidge and Mr. Mellon suggest ed it. o — , + + 4* TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY + 4* + 4* From the Daily Democrat File 4* 4* Twenty Years Ago This Day. + 4* ♦ v 4* + 4*4-4*4*4* + + + 4*« + 4* + August. 12. 1906 was Sunday o — + BIG FEATURES * * of RADIO * 4* ♦ + + + + 4*4*4*4*4*4** + **+ + FRIDAY’S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES WCX Detroit, 517 M. 7pm—Detroit Symphony String concert WCCO Minneapolis-St.Paul, 417 M. 9 pm.—Twin City String quar-lt ( ... - -. •

Youth thunders on his path with threats, His conqueror runs not far behind, He stumbles, falters, or forgets „ And men another hero find. The stars eternal hold their place, , And shines a little while at most, So brief his day. so swift the pace That only fools of triumph boast.

Prizes were given away, adding to the enthusiasm. During the afternoon Wednesday, the class was taken out to tbe Fonner stock farm by John Latham, and tbe students were shown how to judge Hereford cattle. Later, Instructor Pettit. had the students conduct a stock sale. The students are entering into the work with more zeal and from now on. you may expect better sales ou auction nights. Tonight, there will be special enter-, tainment and, at the close of tbe sale, an Indian blanket will be given away. The class is going to have a real auction sale for Col. Reppert, Saturday August 21 He has employed tbe class to do the auction work at a sale of several small tracts in Bellmont Park. The tracts range in size from one-half acre to five acres. The Rev. H. W. Thompson, pastor of the Christian chu-ch, gave a very interesting and instructive talk to the chins, Tuesday. Mr. C. E. Bell, one of tbe wide awake business men of Decatur. the son of one of the Indiana's famous autcioneers. gave the *Jass a Bice pep talk. Tuesday, also. SEN. WATSON OPENLY SPLITS WITH COOLIDGE (COMTIKVED FROM PA6M the latter, he declared. “If the farmer could be completely organized for the purpose of cooperative marketing, the whole problem would be solved, for production

at least might be partially regulated and products eould be fed Into the market at such a rate as to hold up the price, bu(, at the present time that Is not possible " Opposition to the McNary bill, is not a “tenable position for an advocate of the doctrine of protection.” Watson asserted. ’’Our opponents say that If our proposed legislation secures a better price for the farmer, it would tend to ; stimulate production and to reduce consumption. If that is true, of the price increase, secured under legis- , lation we propose, it is true of any price Increase, for instance, one secured by cooperative marketing. ■ "The real problem that confronts '.the farmer is to make the protective tariff effective tn Its application to his products. "We propose to do it by placing at ’ the disposal of the producers a mechanism, with tbe assistance of ■ which they can control the handling - and marketing of crop surpluses. Thereby preventing price fluctuations and securing, in domestic markets, the price benefits of the protective tariff." , i. o " Interurban Track Washed Out By Small Cloudburst < 1 I Crawfordsville, Ind..

Thousands have unenergetic mornings because they start the day with wrong breakfasts. To feel right, you must have a wellbalanced, complete breakfast ration. At most other meals—lunch and dinner—you get it. But breakfast is a hurried meal, often badly chosen. Thus Quaker Oats; containing 16% protein, food's great tissue builder, sB% carbohydrate, its great energy element. plus all-important vitamines and the "bulk" that makes laxatives seldom needed, is the dietetic urge of the world today. It is food that "stands by” you through the morning. Quick Quaker cooks in 3 to 5 minutes. That's faster than plain toast. Don’t deny yourself the natural stimulation this rich food offers you.
