All plans are going forward. ■ I We do not believe Shat voters are fooled these days by silly and untrue statements sent out under cover and without being substantiated. We have heard, that'such reports are now being circulated by unscrupulous politician. who would like to secure control o’ affairs bu: w? feel sure the effort are wasted. Anoymous letters i-e sc., "y .th wortyiug about. piWWt*'* 41»M***a»<* have admitted a serious outlook to President Coolidge and ar e urging his aid in saving many congressional districts. It is doubtful whether the old cry of Stand by the President” will avail much in this campaign. The voters have listened to the same call during the past several jears only to be handed a cold and stem rebuke after election day. Like the old story I of the boy in the first reader who I cried "wolf, wolf,” for a joke, they I refuse longer to be fooled. > Every coun‘y democratic chairman I tn the "ate of Indiana has received j a telegram from R. Earl Peters, state, chairman, urging them to spend every eJcrt to complete the registration of the voters.

Help cinch democratic j victory by a supreme effort in registration." raid Mr. Peters iu his tele-' grams, "do your part to redeem the 1 state of Indiana. Forward, in the l name of decent, honest, clean and economical government." Evans Woollen, democratic candidate for United States senator who will speak at the court house in this city Saturday night is a man of chara’tor, strength, ability and leadership. with an indomitable spirit and a look of youth. For a century his family has been associated with the development of Indiana and Mr. WoolA n himself has been a leader for more than a score of years. He is a graduate of Yale, a lawyer of high rank, a banker of recognized worth and a farmer. He knows the things required to make coaditiona better and he is able to fight for what be

j believes In. You can nuke no mistake supporting such a man but you will make a serious mistake if you do not. He seeks one of the most important posts in this country and '•[the voters of Indiana should certainly t send him to the United States senate J Hear him Saturday night Tom Adams, veteran republican editor of the Vincennes Commercial I j has made a complete Investigation of ? affairs, political and economical, in ) I Indiana ami in a three-column edi- * torial on the first page of his paper, ) • ) 'issue of last Tuesday announces the state's peril and appeals to the repub- | lican editors of Indiana to help dean lup the mess. He is not saying the I things he says for political effect for he is a stand patter of the old school but lie has realized the seriousness of the situation and is placing his state I before politics. H e is brave and able and his appeal should awaken the I people of this splendid state before it is too late. Adams is chairman of , the probe committee, transportation ( committee and executive committee of , the Republican Editorial Association. Geneva entertained the governor of Indiana yesterday, a large crowd of . visitors and hundreds of home folks i and did credit to that splendid com i inunity in paying homage to the late | Gene Stratton-Porter, who by her own lability, her love of nature, her unj i easing energy and her clever way of raying things brought the thoughts of millions of readers back to nature. It was in every way an occasion worthwhile and W. D. Cross, Jr., chairman of the committee in charge and his I assistants are deserving of praise. The talk by Governor Jackson was fitted to the occasion tftrd the address by our own townsman. Dore B. Erwin «was a splendid tribute to Mrs Porter and her wonderful work. We are all »iroud of her indeed, proud to have known her and to have had her as a citizen of this county so many years. In hundreds of towns and cities over many states this week, her praises are being sung as have those of fewwriters in the past several decades. ».i the minds of many children by ahis means is being founded a love for trees and flowers and birds that is sure to be productive of greater things in the future. +*+**+*♦«♦**♦♦♦« ♦ BIG FEATURES 4 ♦ of RA D I O 4 + ♦ +♦♦♦♦♦♦+♦♦♦♦♦♦♦* FRIDAY'S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES Central standard time WEAF—New York, 492 M. and hookup. 7 p. m — Happiness boys.

I had him for a friend but yesterday. Ail that he knew was mine, in need, to share, ’ But now without him I must go tny Way And miss his gentle presence every where. Once 1 had faith I could depend upon And kindly words to warm my soul with cheer. But all those joys from out my life have gone. Stilled is that voice I once rejoiced to hear.

“Your Health” This Columq is conducted by the Adams County Medical Society and the Indiana State Medical Association in the Interest of the public's health. Competitive Athletics, With the opening of school and coliges throughout the state, thousands of Indiana Boys are engaging in com po’itive athletics. In the next fewmonths many colums will be written in the papers upon the heroic stand of football teams in the shadow of their own goal posts and last minute forward passes that bring victory out of defeat. Loud will be the shouts of triumph and mortrnful will be the groans of the vanquished and somewhere through it all will come Ihe ever-recurring question. "Are we overdoing competitive athletics?’’ overdooing competitive sFhletics?” "Competitive exercise Is a great thing in itself but undoubtedly some boys engage in competitive athletics who would lie better off outsiJe. There is a happy medium "is the answer tn the Indiana State Medical Association mjikes to this questiory in a bulletin issued today. “In Indiana, with our Indiana Collegate Association and Indiana high school athletic association, we are in a better way than most states, and parents may feel assuered that when heir boys enter a contest they will meet boys who ae really amateurs" conpiues the ibulbff't ’'The l>tgh standard set by the Indiana High Scho'ol Athletic Association and the olleges and universities of the state jliminates much of the parents’ worries in regard to amateur athletics. Many colleges and universities have a plan of examining all entering students and rating them according to their posture and general condition. Those who fall below a certain ating are not permitted to enter any 'nry*. of competitive athletics. They Sf® rccuircd to sprn I time In a cor-j h'luld bp adopted in more schools. "Before going out for a team every boy or girl should have a thorough physicial examination. The Indiana Hig School Athletic Association does wisely in demanding that each boy who plays football should have a certificate signed by a reputable physito stand the strain of the game, eian stating that he is physicalfy ah'e "This examinatiorf should be more than the usual perfunctory 'looking over’ by a physician who examines the the entire school, but should involve a thorough invoice of the physical limitations and possibilities o: the. individual. Some should be for bidden to take their part in sports and others should be required even against tixeir will to get into the game. “A common mistake of too many athletes and for that matter, tbo many coafhes f:om a health standpoint, is attempting to do too much in the be ginning Warm up slowly’ is a good athletic motto. For examp'e. erttss country rftnners who will eventually cover three or four niHes in a race never shou’d be porimKed to run the complete distance until after several weeks of training. Mr. Daniel Chase, President of ;le New Yoik State Public High School Athletic Association says: "It is ini portant to limit the length of the pra Ice periods in different athletic sports. School authorities should be on the watch continually for signs of overstrain. A constant check on the gain cr loss in weight should be maintaini ed dating the playing season Loss in ( weight except ft r the unusually fleshy , person, is a sign of stalene ■ Less practice and more rest is indicated. . The general effect of pructica and competition tiiotfd be constantly comf aidcred .” “It. is absolutely necessity to observe traininc rules,” ronclti les the bulletin. The essei-tlal rules are regular hours of s :C-p, moderation in ea.ing and drinking, and faithful at- » teutioa to hab'.ts of clean'.lheas and 1 practice.
