The big slx-day program opens Monday and every afternoon and night a high class and entertaining program will be given. The fair and Chautauqua next week will attract many visitors and tr*if sic will be more or less congested on certain streets and highways. Be careful when you drive, don't try to make any out-of the way turns and observe the traffic rules. Ample police protection will be provided am accidents can be avoided if we all heed the law. Along with the opening of schools and colleges, Lincoln Andrews, drj enforcement chief, announces that he will open a school next month for the purpose of instructing his assistants in the fine arts of catching the boot logger and rum-runner. If the boyr turn in all the receipts for making home-brew it will require a regulat cook book to list all the different ways of making one’s favorite drink A community where people ge along, where they go about with tkaii own business, attend their owr church, help improve living conditionand otherwise cooperate with one another is the right kind of a place 1 to live in. This community is one of the finest on earth and any attempt to bring about ill-feelings among the people is i esente 1 and we believe will be given the cold shoulder. Meetings like the one held at the i K. of C. hall last evening when a ! number of representative farmers i wete guests of the local Rotary club ■ •*’<•*■ -*•«««•* « amon- thos?> who live in the city and ■ those who are their neighbors in tin | country. The problem of the farmer ' i‘i as of much concern to the man who j Hives in the city as it is to the man 1 who raises the crops and it is right | that we all try to help each other. ; The doors to the undertaking par ! lor where the body of Rudolph Vai i e'ntlr.o lies could in death have been closed to the public and only those’ who show cards from the movie star's manager will be admitted to see him. In historical fashion, girls and women and even men jammed the undertaking establishment, broke in the doors and rushed into to see the lead Valentino. It's right that we should pay our respects to the dead, but when a solemn occasion is made into a fist fight and brawl, it's time that it is stopped. Banks were probably never rendering a grea er service to the public than they are today. Within recent tears they have been emphasizing the value of properly safeguarding the interest of a wife and mother, in estates which are left to them in the shape of insurance payments or other assets. Her business has been running the home and raising the family. In 99 cases out of 100 she cannot be expected to know the difference between good and bad investments. The result is, that savings left for her protection are too often acquired by the smooth stock salesman who offers her a glittering proposition which “promises" lar~e returns. A trust, administered by the modern bank, eliminates the danger hf lost capital and assures a s’aady income It is the height of folly tor dependent
persons to attempt to speculate with * or Invest funds upon which their , future living depends There would be less need for charitable Institutions, if the trust idea was better understood and more extensively followed. There is something fascinating about an old flour mill located on some shady stream, with its creaking old water wheel. This type of mill is rapidly disappearing. There is one located in Oregon, which was built in 1960 and is still operating. It is called the Ohl Monitor Mill be cause it was named after that famous Civ'll War warship. The interesting part about this mill is that it was built from hewn timbers fastened together with' wooden pins. The original building is still in use, and after , 66 years the wood of which it is built 1 teems to be as sound as on the day ' it was put up. Building substitutes < may come and go. but the native ' woods of America will always lend lignify and permanence to the struc- I tures in which they are used. ■ Invited by the Rotarains, about fifty j farmers were the guests of the local club last evening and had the oppor- < tiinity to learn first hand about the corn borer a talk on this pest being made by Hon. Frank Waliace, state entomologist. The meeting was a fine example of community spirit and both business men and farmers en joyed it thoroughly. Mr. Wallace stated that in his opinion the corn borer would not do any damage in this county for another year and that every effort was being made to prevent its spread. The moths are carried with the winds, the infestation in several of the northern Indiana ounties coming from Canada. The .inusual northeast winds which we had during July this year are atributed as being responsible for the * pread in this state and the state •onservation department has a force of experts at work trying to detect he pest and route it as soon as possible. A slight infestation in a > ield of corn will not injure the crop, the problem being to kill it before it spreads again in the spring. Mr. Wallace stated that he had the cooperation of the farmers and that he i lid not anticipate any serious results t n Indiana at present. After Harvest Program \ The members of the Calvary Evangelical church, east of the city, will give an after harvest program Sunday evening. August 29. Th e public is invited to attend.
