The legislature will be asked to appropriate a much larger sum for state police. That's the stuff, th* 'squires need the money. Want to make $8,500 easy? All you have to do is to arrest the five bandits who held up a bank at Laporte ( a tew days ago and stole $30,000 in cash and a lot of negotiable securities. | in II I l —, —"W - Queen Marie Is to visit Indianapolis Wednesday. Its hard to say whether Mayor Duval can entertain her properly or not, but there would have been no guess about the former mayor, LewShanks—he couldn't. Well, let's get these remaining fewfootball games out of the way now so we can devote full time to basketball. Its a cold day when there isn't something doing in the sport line in America, and why not? It's a lot better for young folks than other things they might be doing. Governor Jackson's budget asks for a considerable sum for repairing the roof of the state house So that's where the leak is? The way the money has been disappearing, we were afraid it was in the basement and flowing into a sewer.

Those who have heard Rev. Halley at the Reformed church the past week are deeply impressed with the inspiring messages and his wonderful ability. It is agreed among all that his visit to Decatur has been productive of greater interest and much good. Among other things indicative of the life and character of the late "Uncle" Joe Cannon, it is being recalled that he smoked "stogie" cigars, (three for five), swore like a trooper, refused to pay more than fifteen dollars for an overcoat and saved a million dollars. Just the same he was "Uncle Joe" and about everybody loved him. If a committee could be named now Ito make a survey of the city and Its needs and this committee report at the annual banquet of the Industrial Association early in the year, we should have a start that would bring real progress in 1927. We would gain several months time over the usual rule and revive an interest in local affairs that should benefit every one in the community.

Pullman car porters are now making a campaign to have the public call them by their right names instead of “George" as has become the custom some way or another unexplained and they have so far succeeded as to| have the Pullman company agree to post their name in the car corridor. The biggest thing of interest in the matter is that we must be about to the end of drives and campaigns when we bother with this. Because of a lack of interest, the I people along the Monroe road and the, citizens of the county, are in danger of losing the improvement. There is no bluff about it and if we stop to think, we will know that. The high-' way commission have a hundred roads to improve aud after they have passed this one up, we will have a difficult time getting them into the lisposition of putting this highway . ~t on the list. If we are to take

advantage of the offer It must be done ' at once and we should think there could be no desire to do otherwise, j Right now. this week, is the time to do your Christmas shopping if you have any intention of doing it early t as you have promised yourself each year after you had put it off until the last minute. By starting now you I can take your time, have a better | 2 Selection, take advantage of the comI plete stocks and have time to order ) ; if you so desire. There are many ) other advantages including that of t 1 j dividing the expenditures from week 1 to wook. ■J ..... JUI. U !. Congress will devote the time from December 6th to March 4th arguing about tax reduction and will probably | adjourn then without doing anything else than argue. The president and his cabinet are not agreed, either purposely or otherwise and in the mean-, time we will go on paying excessive federal taxes while it is admitted the ' treasury is piling up a vast surplus. The coming session is the closing one of the sixty ninth congress and the 1 1 next session will convene a year from December. ' State democratic headquarters are to be maintained at Indianapolis and after a meeting of the state committee this week, district sessions will be held. Ten thousand Hoosier democrats will be invited to contribute to a fund for the use of the state committee in continuing a live organization which can wiu in 1928. That sounds like good political business sense to us. The only reason we carry the state each year Is because we don't start to work at it until the month before election.

DECATUR DAILY DEMOChAI MONDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1926.

• PREPARING FOR SALE OF SEALS (CONTINVBD VBOM PAGB ONB) . Dr. S. C. Darden, president, pointed i out that approximately 55,000 persons , have died from the dread disease in Indiana since 1910. This, he showed, 1 was more than the entire population ' of many Indiana cities of the size of Marion and Logansport. i Dr. Darden stated that while the . state of Indiana was gradually gaining control of tuberculosis, there was still much work ahead before the battle is won. He cited figures to show that approximately 18.000,000 persons in the 23 principal countries of the world have died from the disease in the past forty years and declared there ; could be no thought of rest until the plague is wiped out. To show how conditions have Im-; proved in this country alone he staled that in 1880 an average of 300 out of each 100,000 persons were victims of the disease. | The saddest part of the whole affair, he said, is that the greater majority of those who die fr*mi tuberculosis are taken while in their productive years of adult life.

MANY HEAR DR. HALLEY SUNDAY (COMTtvrKB FROM VtaX »V«) noon. On Saturday night the speaker recited from the twelve minor quoting portions t\om Jonah. Micah, Nahum, Habakuk, Zephaniah and also a portion from the major prophet, Ezekial. I The prophet Jonah was a nies-en ' ger of mercy. Jonah and Jesus as lads, played on the same ground only about 800 years apart. Nahum about 150 years later prophesied doom and destruction to a foreign nation. Micah foretold the Bethlehem story, pointing out the place where Christ should be born. He was of the southern kingdom and an associate of the great prophet Isaiah. ' Zephaniah prophesied that a "pure | language" would be spoken throughi out the earth. Christ was that pure language of God. He was also a prophet of doom and foretold the de- : struction of the nations. The pro-

phet Habakuk furnished the apostle Paul with a theme for his Epistle to the Romans, “The Just Shall Live By Faith." This prophet also faik>d to understand why a more wicked nation should destroy the Jewish nation, for the Chaldeans were to destroy them and Habakuk cried out to God in a great complaint. Ezekiel's message to the people was that the destruction of Jerusalem was goine to teach them that Jehovah is God. On Sunday afternoon Dr. Halley quoted from the Book of Acts. The theme of this book is ‘.The Founding of the Church.” In this book there is made plain that the Gospel message is an international message instead of only a national—not only for 'b ‘ j so, “in every nation he that feareth Him and worketh r ghteousness. is accepted with Him.” The speaker recited on the following topics, "The Growth of the Church and the Opposition of the Rulers"; "The Church’s First Martyr"; “Founding of the Gentile Church in Antioch” and "Conference at Jerusalem about Circumcision.” o FOOTBALL RESULTS Notre Dame. 7; Army. 0.

| o How to Gain 5 Pounds in 30 Days i Ask Holthouse Drug Co., or any I druggist tor a box of McCoy's Cod Liver Oil Compound Tablets. They cost but little, are sugar coated and as pleasant to take as candy. Skinny men and women take them to speedily put on plenty of good healthy, solid flesh, and for this purpose they are so extremely good that th’n men and women often take on 5 pounds or more in 30 days. As a matter of fact, all druggists are auth- , orized to return your money if you don't take on 5 pounds in 30 days. One thin woman gained 15 pounds in six weeks.
