IM Notice is hereby served on the weather man that we are expecting thiity-one of those “October blue" skies this month and that we are very much disgusted with his broken promises for August and September. And we don't mean maybe. Plan to hear Evans Woollen at the court room tomorrow evening at eight o'clock. His address will be a fair and decent explanation and his opinion of how many of the ills of govern rnent can be avoided and not a bombardment of his opponents. A report from Washington shows that prohibition up to date has cost {115.000.000, several hundred lives and ■deprived the nation of three billion dollars income and yet failed to prohibit and that will Continue to be the result until the officials really make up Ma 1 lr minds that they want stamp out liquor. ♦ n.

As a whole the iecord is good. The candidates on the democratic ticket in Adams county are men of ability and integrity, nominated fairly in a primary election and deserving of your support. When you scratch one of thenv you are helping the opponents weaken your party. Wher you do that you are breaking down the political party which is your friend and protector and which fights ybur battles year in and year out.

THE FLOWER

I wonder, little flower. Irf you really know your power. Know the mighty force which weaves ’ Root and tendril, stalk and leaves? * Have you guessed the strength they ? hold? * As those petals pink unfold. ) ‘ Little blossom, do you know . ' Why upon the earth you grow? ' Are you conscious of the fact That you live and breathe and act? Should you wither now and die. Would your lovely neighbors sigh? Little blossom, touched with grace You are far from common-place. You've a mission to fulfill.

merchants and citizens of Decatur will be hosts to thousands of farmers and dairymen and it will be a good time tor every one. Get back of it and stay there. Help us make every one feel this the best community anytv here. Almost 1.800 school children, 1.755 to be exact, registered at Geneva Wednesday and listened to the Memorial services in honor of Mrs. Gene Stratton-Porter, a splendid showing and an event which will increase in value as time goes on. The late gifted authoress did a great work in calling attention to a business mad nation that the greatest pleasure In the world is to watch nature produce, to listen to God's choristers, to learn the secrets of life in the Limberiost and in other places where the hand Os man has not destroyed. The oftener we call attention to these facts, the better for the future. Yellow posters headed "sample ‘ballot" and claiming everything good in the calendar for the republican ticket and everything bad for the democrats are now being put out by the county chairmen. Each column is made up of misrepresentations and untruths, without a word of explanation or argument and is but further *of the charges that they have no issues to present and must resort to trickery to conduct the campaign. They are using the same tactics in their county campaign, telling one thing here and another there, yellow stuff on yellow paper. The rescue of, the forty-three miners from a seven hundred foot tomb in the “G" Pabst mine at Ironwood, {Michigan wa - t the good common sense of the boss, 52-year-old Tom Trewartha, is a credit which will cause the praises of that man to be sung for many decades. The aged boos led his men in song and w-ork. portioned out water and tood and kept them heartened, refus ing to leave the mine until all the rest had been taken out. Tom is a hero, a greater jnan than Tunney, than a thousand others who have been heralded and dined and handsomely paid. The "yellow sheets” being put out over -the name of the Indiana republican state committee says under the republican column —“taxes cut; debts paid," ' budget limits expenses" and under the democratic column — ‘taxes higher; debts added" and “extravagance runs wild " Think it over and remember that under the last democratic year the. entire amount of money raised by the state was $12,000,000, while last year the total amount raised was $52,000,000. They also say under the republican head — “agriculture protected.” Let the farmer answer that. He has paid (’.early for It and bag suffered to an extreme which we would think would make him swallow such statements as these with a "gag." . x 1 ■ 1 , - o <*t+++*o+ * + * + + * + BIG FEATURES ♦ ♦ OF RADIO + <•♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ + ♦ + + + + ♦ SATURDAY’S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES Copyright, 1925. by United Press Central Standard Time WEAF —New York. 492 M, and hookup. 12 noon —First game of World Serie*. >t Louis ys.

LL'J." * 1 £ T/,e Last an d Greatest ' Novel by W. L. GEORGE CHILDREN of the MORNING SUPPOSE your children, with the little training you had been able to give them, were cast away with other children on a desert island with no other guidance in forming their character than theit own instincts and desires .... What do you suppose they would do? How would they learn life’s secrets? What new bar,s of right and wrong would they establish forthemselves? Would they, « for instance, find a new basis for the sex relationship f us These and a hundred other interesting speculations are the basis of the great novel which the most widely read English novelist completed just before he died. It has never been published before. Its absolutely startling and revolutionary theme will make it the most widely read and discussed book of the year. Nothing like it has ever been attempted in the history of literature. * A group of children, ranging m age troni six m wtoic-i f iii Sir <*■*<**’«"• *****' a sinking ship, arrive at an uninhabited island. Their background, their training, even their languages are different. How they evolved a civilization, with no guide save their dim memories of early habits, makes the most fascinating theme ever dealt with in an imaginative work I ' ; J The story thrillingly records whai these ' children did and how they worked out their strange destinies.
