A senator up in Quebec is a hundred years old, still on the Job and says he has never had a headache. He has however never had to contend with the vexing problems that Jim Watson has had to meet and square and get by in a circle. A Frenchman has invented an automobile that will leap :u the air afid fly several miles. Nice for hunting rabbi s or cutting across country, but hard on the pedestrians. If you see one flying overhead while crossing, the streets just lie down and take it. So many fellows these days feel so depressed and so ill they would like to have one qf Dr. Gillfom's prescriptions and it might be well for him to issue one of his famous bills of particulars so we will all know just when that is permissable. Hallow'een, the night when ghos s and fairies and witches roam about unmolested, distributing joy and happi ness, will be celebrated in Decatur in a manner similar to that of two years ago but with added features., It should -be a happy occasion in which every one can join and laugh and'siiit? and be happy. The New York Yanks took the first game of the world series but not without a s rap that made them earn it. The Pilates were contenders until the last'man was out and but for one bad inning would have won. Os course tints the same excuse Dempsey had, but i just seems to have happened that way. Three cases of infantile paralysis in Fort Wayne, hits caused some alarm and warnings have been issued that 1 everybody be as careful as \*ossible. ‘ Th(s disease while not contageous is 1 infectious and usually spreads with l considerable rapidity once it sets its fangs in a community. The Democrats at Berne seem to I have plenty of enthusiasm and they expect to elect Paul Felber to the' town council and David Depp to the position of clerk-treasurer. These men were nominated Tuesday nig'at in con ven. ion and a campaign basod upon the slogan “lower taxes" was agreed upoirr Not a ease of infan'ile paralysis in the county according to the check up jus t made by health officials and physicians. Thats fine and wc hope there won tbe any. In the me antime remember that abou: the only safeguard recommended by physicians is to keep the children away from crowds in those territories where the disease has been located. Hundreds of dairymen visited the Eric bull train here yesterday and were pleased wilh the display of fine cattle and the many helpful instructions of bow to better their conditions. The rai’road operates this train in conjunction with Purdue, not for the purpose of gain, but to help the farmers and the citizens along their route, a splendid idea and one that is sincerely appreciated by every one. - * Even if a man be the highest enforcement officer in the state he has no more right to violate a law than has the poorest and humblest citizen of the state, so if he has the right to transport a half pint of liquor and ./
j boast of it. a million others have the ' same rights, which certainly makes a rather sorry condition. We have no feeling against Mr. Gilliom but in his position he should be maintaining law, not violating it. If Its a poor , law change ft, but while its the law ■ it would seem the attorney-general was in duty bound to respect it. There is a general feeling that next . year will be a more prosperous and happy one than we have enjoyed generally since 1920. The farm problem seems to be working itself out and the average farmer feels that next year he will be able to show a real profit. The factory production is increasing and more men are at work than a month ago. There is nothing to feel glum about and there is much to be happy over. Smile and work and boost and we will soon be enjoying life again. So many harsh things have been said of us- and so many of them have been true — that here and there a Hoosier becomes disheartened. He admits that things are wrong, but does little to change conditions. Nevertheless, the changes are in process of taking place. Some day all will be well, or at least better than it has been for a long time in the political history of the state. Meantime we can be proud of Booth Tarkington, George Ade. Meredith Nicholson and Kin Hubbard. Two of them are Republicans and the other two are Democrats. There is a chance here for all of us to unite on four men who are partisans without being ' politicians and who bring us fame while some of the politicians bring us shame.—lndianapolis News. o * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * ************* Thursday's Five Best Radio Features Copyright 1927 by United Press All Central Standard Time N.

Says Fish Eating Causes Rise In Japan’s Birthrate • Moscow (United Press)—A close 1 connection between fish-eating and the birth rate has been discovered in Japan, according to the claim of Josef Washington Hal! an American author and formerly private secretary of the Chinese war lord, Wu Pci-fU.

Oct. 6 -(UP)—Labor is more intelligent than ever before in history and is entitled to the fullest information regarding the business in which i: is engaged. ’ Britton I. Budd, president of the Chicago Rapid Transit company, today told the American Electric 1 Ra'lway Alotion convention. “Play the game on the square is my formula for establishing and maintaining good employe relations,” Budd said. we expect our employes to work with the management in a wholehearted way we must first win their confidence by laying all the cards on the table face upward. "As 1 see it there is no material difference between the employes of a company who work for hourly wages an dthose who work on stated salary in a supervisory capacity. As a matter of fact many of the men who direct our great industrial enterprises | today are men who have risen from the ranks of wage-earners.
