If you can't afford it of course you I should not join the Country Club, but the most of us spend money in other ways which thus directed would help us keep in better physical condition, I provide better atul cleaner amusement and pleasure and help put this elty on nle map. . There have been fewer automobile i accidents this year than the average And it seems probable that the drivers are really being more careful. Thats fine and we hope you all keep it up. Remember not to depend too much on what the other fellow is going to do. Play it safe. Well, things are finally getting back, to normal, 15,000 employes of the Chicago surface lines have voted to walk out unless their demands for an increased wage are met. It is predicted that if this occurs the elevated men will join and that a complete tie up of traffic will result. Somewhere the other day we noticed a sign which read: “Go to church Sunday and you will feel better on Monday.” Its the one place where I you can get your mind away from! worldly things and think seriously of the after while. The church has been the light and hope of civilization for tnany centuries and will continue so to be. Authorities from Washington who have been investigating the flood area in the southwest declare the damage greater than that of the phys-l ical property of the French and Belgians along the western front in the World war and yet we are consider-! ing whether to hold the special session to remedy the situation in October or November. ■■■■ mi ■ nii Mwrim ■«— This has ben a real week and it is perhaps not a wild statement to say -that as much work was done the past six days as had been done in a month before. From early morning until far into the night the farmers have been busy putting in their corn crop and it is pleasing to note that the job has been so well handled that there seems to be a chance for every good crop. ‘ The gobs on the U. S. S. Memphis declare “Slim” Lindbergh is a real I guy and base their claims on the fact that he had “chow" with them and diked it so well that he ordered every 'thing the second time. His big hit Iwith them however was that instead 'of bragging about his own accompnshjnen he spent his time inquiring Jabout their jobs. The lad sure knows •his stuff. « A smile is not difficult if you don’t •get out of the habit. It we take life »too seriously and think too much of Jthe dark side we will soon get so it “really hurts to wrinkle the face into a grin. A good hearty laugh is about •the best tonic for you and gee whiz •how it does spread. Ever notice that? •If you see some one else laughing, Zyou can’t help smiling even before you 'know what its all about. • Russia has $250,000,000 worth of diamonds and rubies, the former prop--erty of the "royalty and now held by •the government, but unsaleable be■cause most of the jewels are so large that no one wants them and conse.quently there is no market. On the ‘other hand a guard is constantly necessary and the jewels instead of

| being an asset are a liability and an P overhead. One of the diamonds it is said is as large as an egg and yours ago cost $15,000,000. •Getting out a daily paper is no ; picnic, if we print jokes folks say * we are silly. If we don’t they say , we are too serious. It’ we publish original stuff they say we lack variety, if we clip from other papers they say 2 we are too lazy to write. If we stay ’ in the office we ought to be out hunti ing up news. It we hunt up news, we {■are not tending to business in the of- > flee, it we wear old clothes, we’re • stingy. If we wear new ones, they're not paid for. Like as not, some one will say we swiped this article from another newspaper. We did.” Decatur will extend a sincere welcome to the Legionares when they meet here July 3rd for their district i convention. The event is to be held |at tile Decatur Country Club and if they had searched the world over they could not have found a more | idea) place for the event. Colonel | McNutt, state commander of the Legion and dean of the Indiana University law school will be an honor guest and one of the speakers. At this meeting also the boys will [adopt resolutions supporting Fred Weicking, of Bluffton, for state commander. It should be a big occasion for the boys and their "buddies.” This is Lindbergh day at the national capitol and it “Slim" had any notion that his feat of being the first to fly across the ocean was not appreciated by the home folks, he has surely changed his mind. The business of the nation stopped to pay homage to this lad who three weeks ago was so modest that when he left for Europe he took along letters x>f introduction. When he arrived there thirty-three and a half hours later his name was on the tongue of about every one in every nation on the globe and he was the best known man in I the world. During the next week he [will be kept busy receiving the I plaudits of this country. ■■ —u— —————— ♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ ♦ BIG FEATURES ♦ ♦ OF RADIO * ++♦♦+♦♦♦*♦♦♦♦♦♦♦ SUNDAY’S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES Copyright 1927 by United Press.

, THE GREAT WAR ‘ 10 YEARS AGO | Washington orders registration booths closed and declares draft registration period of grace ended. All not now registered will be rounded up us draft evaders. LOCAL FIRM HAS A NEW PRODUCT Limo Chemical Company Now Marketing Guaranteed Washing Powder The Limo Chemical Company of this city. W. J. and Lawrence Archbold, proprietors, w ho for a number of years have been engaged in the manufacture of boiler compounds and other chemicals are now marketing a new product which, it is believed, will strike a popular cord and which is likely to convert their plant into a larger institution. Messers Archbold have worked out a washing powder, declared by those who has tested it during the past several years, to be of unexcelled quality and they are now starting a campaign of publicity and canvassing which will put it in thousands of homes for a test. It will be known as Limberlost Washing Powder and is put up in attractive packages with the Gene Stratton-Por-ter Memorial rock as the trade mark. This powder is the result of much experimental work and will be first offered to the consumer in a 25 cent package, accompanied by a money back guarantee. If the goods are not satisfactory, all the customer has to do is to take back to his grower his duplicate order blank with the empty carton and receive his cash from the grocer. They believe in “home pride", but they also believe that legitimate business should be built on efficiency and courtesy. The Limo company has been doing business for the last ten years and feel they should not ask for patronage of the public cn any grounds except merit. They do not ask it on the grounds of home pride, but because they wish to serve the people with a better article for less money than it can be bought elsewhere. They want the friendship of the people if they can secure it through the tight business principles. Their advertising campaign in this paper started today. Watch for the announcements. — o Ohio Boy Believed Abducted By Gypsies Garnet Shorter, 11 years old. son of Mr. and Mrs. Wade Shorter of Westerville, Ohio, has been unaccountably missing from home since Friday afternoon, June 3.
