It is better to be careful a thousand times than to be injured once. On motion by Hubert Schmitt at the Industrial mee.ung last evening, the board of directors was authorized I to organize a committee to take charge of an Old Home Week for De--1 catur next fall. It looks like a go. And now it will be interesting to know just how dry Detroit can be j * made. Mayor-elect Lodge has one advantage, he has made no promises! to either side. ' President Coolidge lias asked the ' people of the nation to observe ' November 24th as Thanksgiving day and regardless of politics, religion or otherwise, most folks we have talked ' to, will comply with the request. i Every citizen in the county may well feel proud of the record made by our county officials. State Examin--9 ers Hammond and Schroeder have just completed a report of the records of John P.aker. ex-sheriff; John E. Nelson, clerk; Louise Kleine, treasurer and Martin Jaberg, auditor, and ; have reported all books in exact bal- j aace and all books properly kept. Kentucky evidently loves their j "hoss” race “and wants to bet a few j' dollars occasionally. Judge Sampson ‘ who favors the pari-mutuel betting machine defeated Senator Beckham 1 by a decisive majority. The mutucl' provides a revenue and adds to the 11 interest of the derby days which have made that state famous and attract immense crowds during the racing season. Elections over many states Tuesday did not give politicians much of a line on what may be expected next year. In New York state Governor Smith won out on every amendment he favored and those he opposed were lost. Hut the republicans gained several seats in the assembly. The drys claim a victory In Detroit but lost heavily in Ohio. The Kentucky result due to a contest over parimutuel racing while in most of the cities the issues were entirely local. You can figure it out as you wish. Sm.li is polities. It’s a great game and very fascinating to match wits against wits. —Adams County Witness. And all the time a lot of folks have had the opinion that politic swas an effort to secure from the voters their free expression by secret ballot as to whom they desire to serve them officially and under what policy. It doss seem to be a "game” for some of Ed Jackson's followers, though all of them don't use a "horse.” Some use "wine lor their stomach’s sake.” -i .. " ■ A scon or more of automobile drivers have been notified to appear be- ♦ fore the mayor this evening lor violation of the "traffic ordinances. We have repeatedly warned the drivers that this would occur and surely no one can bo blamed for Ibis effort by the police to tag those who insist on paying no- attention to the laws and the ordinances. Its a dangerous practice to run the stop signals for the oilier driver is expecting you tp do so and we should all help in the enforcement of the traffic regulations. In defense of their “larceny” of the rights of the voters of Berne to express themselves in last Tuesday s
election, the Adams County Witness i after quoting voluminously from an opinion by the state election com- | mission, (which by the way has no ! l ights that are not prescribed by * statute) says the law as quoted was ‘ made by the commissioners by auth- | ority vested in them by the state 1 legislature uud urged its readers to see Acts 1925, page 335- This page refers to two subjects, namely, I i "school property" and "transfer of school children.” Is that satire or un-^ : other inning in the "game"? Cal Lyons and “Heiuie” Hendricks of Columbus, Ohio, two regular tel- J lows, were oil the program for the J Decatur Industrial dinner last eve-j ning and made a lot of new friends i while renewing old tics. President, Peterson turned the meeting over to Mayor George Krick who introduced “Heiuie” who presetted Cal who gavej a most interesting description of a recent trip through Europe. Lyons i was the first American newspaper mail to interview You lliudeuburg, a few days after the war closed and ■ during that time made a number of^ I good friends whom he visited on this trip. Cal says that hut three nations, 1 Germany, Italy and Belgium, on the main continent of Europe are making! any progress and that France is too busy trying to keep from paying her | debt to America to 'get any where. ************* * TWENTY YEARS AGO * . * *r * From the Daily Democrat File * * Twenty Years Ago Today ♦ ************* Nov. 10, 1907 was Sunday. ************* * THE GREAT WAR * * 10 YEARS AGO *j ************* Helsingfors, Finland, fall to conquer-j ing German droops.

Many times more selective than the average set, which will he appreciated in the evenings when so many stations are broadcasting. Very sensitive, it offers you seven performance with only five tubes, with “A” and “B” battery economy not even closely approached bv the average five or six tube receiver. Let us give you the actual figures of current drain. Special audio transformers give a remarkable quality of reproduction over the entire musical scale. We unhesitatingly recommend Kadiola 20 as a truly exceptional value in a radio receiving set. It may be adapted for complete lighting socket operation.
