The safe thing to do is to obey traffic rirles, laws and ordinances. Then you know you will not get into trouble or bother any one else. Say something good about those you know. It pays the biggest returns and remember that flowers for the living are more sensible than are flowers for the dead. A gas plant in Pittsburgh exploded yesterday with fatal results, many being killed and injured, a great loss of property and every building in the city rocked. It does seem that a lot of accidents are occuring that could be prevented by carefulness. In one of the big stores in London you can buy an airplane on a down payment anid $l3O per month for two years. We don't see how they do it for in this country the average fellow don’t keep a plane that long and there is not much salvage in a wrecked airplane. Be sure to see that your name is on the “Roll Call" for the Red Cross this year. Miss Anna Winness, who as secretary, has carried the burden of this work in Adams county for years deserves your sincerest help. Join and then get all your friends to join. Its for charity and there is no greater cause. Several automobile wrecks, serious enough to serve as warnings to all drivers, occurred near here over the week end and hundreds are reported from over the middle west. Speed, carelessness, slippery roads, loose macadam and other causes are given and there is but one cure that applies to about every case —be more careful. Its hard to guess what the other fellow is going to do. Don't try it—-play safe. Fred Rohrer of the Adams County Witness insists that the democrats ouht to have printed stickers and covered the ballots in the recent election and that would have been according to law. We rather doubt it, since the election commission as we understand it, must pass on every th nig of that kind and furnish the “supplies.” Any way its not the technical part of it that strikes us as being so important, its the idea that men of standing in a community would take unfair advantage of the voters and then brag about it. Ruth Elder says she and her husband are not estranged and that she will return to him after she has completed the “activities” resulting from her recent trip to Paris with Mr. Halderman which may require six months. Her husband returned to his work in Panama yesterday but she expects to keep before the public. A career may be a fine thing but usually when married women choose it they give up “hubby.” In this case it looks like Lyle Womack was up against it and if he really loves Ruth is in for "seventeen more hells.” According to news from Washington, 137 cities in the United States will be given a Christmas present in an appropriation bill for $20,000,000, for new postoffice buildings. Decatur is always in the first bills presented but Congressman Vestal, Senator Watson and all the rest of our political friends down that way forget ail about us when they get dow-n io “brass tacks” and when it finally «

] mines through wo are sitting high r and dry, the only county seat in the I eighth district, left out. Its been going on so long now that we don’t expect any thing else. , r. —■ — A family hotel at Indianapolis burned Sunday, causing the loss of a numr > ber of lives and Injuries to others. ( It was supposed to be a fire proof, building and under ordinary circumstances was but a pile of rubbish at >0 the foot of the elevator shaft made' ’® possible a disastcrous blaze. It hasj 0. 5 1 not been definitely decided that was 0! the cause but it may be. Any way 0 1 1 its enough to warn every one to get rid of rubbish about the premises. I Its carelessness and a lack of energy, to let discarded stuff accumulate 1 and it always adds to fire hazzard. We attended the auction sale of two farms yesterday. One of them' located on federal and state road No J 27. with good buildings, sold for eighty-six dollars per acre and the L> other in the center of Monroe town-1 ship, with buildings of but little val1 ue, for sixty dollars an acre. Both e < were bargains and the buyers can scarcely help making a good profit.* r 3 The farms were of good soil, well drained and a few years ago would have brought at least twice as much' and perhaps three times. Those I . days will return before long and those t who buy now will be the lucky ones. 1 t The best investment you can make ■ today is the purchase of an Adams i * I L county farm. I Cotton is the overcoat of a seed 1 , that is planted and grown in the [ Southern States to keep the producer i 1 , broke and the buyer crazy, says an.' exchange. The fiber varies in color | ‘ and weight, and the man who can! guess nearest the length of the fiber 1 is called a cotton man by the public. . and a fool by the farmer, and a poor business man by his creditors. The price of cotton is determined in New ■ York and goes up when you have sold and down when you have bought. A buyer working for a group of mills was sent to New York to watch the . cotton market and after a few days . deliberation he wired his firm to this effect: “Some think it will go up and some think it will go down. I do too. Whatever you do will be wrong, act at once.” Cotton is planted in the spring, motgaged in the summer and left in the field in the winter. You can and you can’t; you will and you won’t. Be damned if you do, and be damned if you don’t. —Exchange. ——■ ■" 1 —C" *¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥* * BIG FEATURES *| * OF RADIO * «; ¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥¥ K TUESDAY’S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES (Copyright 1927 by United Press) WPG, Atlantic City t 273) 7:15 p. m.

GRAHAM BROTHERS PLANTS EXPAND TO PROVIDE FOR BIG BUSINESS IN 192 S Truck Division of Dodge Brothers Increases Capacity of Detroit Factory 100 Per Cent —Builds New Plant in California Present indications point to lf»2S as a record year for the motor track 1 industry and Graham Brothers, the I tuck division of Dodge Brothers. Inc., will be in a position to meet the greatest demand in its history, according to a statement today by John I IL Lee. General Sales Manager, “The Graham Brothers line of trucks is now more comprehensive , than ever before.” Mr. Lee states,i I “having been augmented by the addition of two new models that should I sell in substantial volume. One of these is a 2-ton six cylinder truck designed for heavy service and the I other is a light and fast H-ton delivery car that sells in a new field. "Since the announcement of these new models and of Important improvements in the other Graham trucks, sales have mounted rapidly. 'October, ordinarily a slow month for j truck manufacturers, was the best . month Graham Brothers have had this year. Sales and shipments of 1 Graham Brothers trucks to dealers , amounted to 6.125 units. j "To keep pace with present business and to provide for substantially i larger sales next year the company has carried through two major exi pansion programs. The daily producI tion capacity of the main plant at I Detroit has been increased approxi- ■ mutely 100 per cent and a new and larger addition to the Stockton, Calii fornia. plant has been built to provide additional facilites for the rapidly expanding Pacifc Coast trade. “The Detroit plant has been expanded by the addition of a new assembly line paralleling the old line and increasing daily capacity from 180 units to 350. In addition to the construction of the new line various other manufacturing processes have been rearranged to make possible more economical operation and add! tional space has been provided for the storing of materials. “Work on the erection of the Stock ton factory was started early in August and was rushed to completion. The plant is now- operating and production will be stepped up as rapidly as possible. The new building is equipped with the most modern machinery available and increases the production capacity of this unit to about 50 trucks a day. ’•With the increased capacity of
