Have you paid your subscription to the Daily Democrat? This is the closing week of the campaign for renewals. Don’t put it off longer if you want the home paper. Ba sure to have the old cans and the other rubbish ready for the city trucks on May 2nd. Its a big job to gather this stuff and the trucks cannot go over the route the second time. Be ready for them. Fifty more.,memtiers are needed to make the Industrial Association roster show the desired two hundred. Have you joined? Don't be a slacker. Don't be one of those who stands back and acts wise. Be a worker. -j Ten thousand acres of land in this middle west section have been con-. | traded by the Decatur sugar plant I and will be planted in beets, the most F successful campaign ever made by the local organization. With an assured price on this crop many farnfers are ? turning their attention to beets rather ■I. than to others for which the market i- is uncertain. South Bend is having the daylight savings proposition to worry about and will vote on it soon. Valparaiso recently held an election and the vote was decidedly “no.'’ When put up to the people in a fair manner that is the inevitable result but each year it is brought forth anew and has to be disposed of. There should be some way to settle it permanently. North Seventh and Eighth streets

Within a few years every I street in the city will have these hghts, adding greatly to appearances and making tins the best lighted | small city in the state. Thats something worth while. A vacation Bible school similar to those held the past two summers will convene May 23rd and continue until June 17th. Last year there was an enrollment of more than three hundred and those who attended derived many educational benefits. It is the hope of those interested in the school to make this years session even more successful than those of the past. All Decatur school buildings havepassed examination by the inspector from the state fire marshall's office, which is fine. Its so easy for one of these fellows to discover something out of joint which may cause the expenditure of several thousand dollars that its always a relief when they have placed their “okay" on the school houses for another year. The inspector gave interesting talks to the school children and appointed one pupil in each building as chairman to organize the drills and other work helpful to the cause of fire prevention. C. E. Bell and several other citizens have petitioned the council asking that orders be issued that the Nickle Plate and Erie railroads place a watchman at the Tenth street crossing, where Mr. Friizir.ger recently tost his life. Until recently the crossing was used little but now with the stock yards and other industries in that section there is considerable traffic over this street causing it to’

The matter has been ’ referred to the public safety committee. j The first commencement exercises I of the Decatur Community Training .I school. Rev, R. W. Loope, dean, will ‘ be held Monday evening when twenty graduates will receive diplomas from the International Council of Religious du ation, they having completed the H three-year course. These twenty men 1I J and women are splendidly qualified to teach Sunday school classes and to 1 otherwise assist in work of religious character. E. T. Albertson, secretary of the Indiana counsel will deliver the address and the public is invited and urged to attend, thus lending deserved support to a worthy cause. We are making up the list of “stops" this week and it you have not renewed and your paper fails to arrive you will understand that it is because we feel you do not want it. We have been lenient and have extended most of these several weeks beyond the date of expiration. We will be glad to renew your subscription and hope that each of you will order us to do so. The paper will contain the news of the state, nation and county together with a number of features of 1 interest and we don't believe you can afford to be without it for less than a penny a day. Recognition of the faithful and cffk-ien- se’-vteos. of Will O'ftHon by the Northern Indiana Gas and Electric company, by promoting him to a district superintendency is a deserved and merited tribute to a worthwhile man. Mr. O'Brien is one of those men who delights in doing favors for others, who is loyal, who is public spirited and who is in every sense a dependable business man. We regret his departure but we certainly wish him every success and we are | sure he will have it in his new field. Mr. O'Brien has been transferred to St. Marys, Ohio, and will have two other cities. Celina and Wapakoneta I under his supervision. Good luck, j •■Bill." ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ ♦ BIG FEATURES ♦ ♦ OF RADIO ♦ Friday's Five Best Radio Features WAEF, hookup. 16 stations, 7 p. m. Goldman band concert. WBAL.

Too Much “Acid?” Excess Uric Acid Gives Rise to Many Unpleasant Troubles. AUTHOR ITIES agree that an exl cess of uric acid is primarily due to faulty kidney action. Retention of this toxic material often makes its presence felt by sore, painful joints, a tired, languid feeling and, sometimes, toxic backache and headache. That the kidneys are not functioning right is often shown by scanty or burning passage of secretions. Thousands assist their kidneys at such times by the use of Doan’s Pills — a stimulant diuretic. Doan’s are recommended by many local people. Ask your neighbor! DOAN’S T 3 Stimulant Diuretic to the Kidney* Fo»ter-Mxlburn Co., Mfg. Chem., Buffalo, N. Y.
