Tonight—the Old Home Week meeting at Decatur Industrial rooms. There should be a hundred there. Stocks dropped off suddenly yester.day, the gamblers deciding it was tune to make the first of a series of Just one sure way to beat that game and that is to stay off of it. It might be popular if that fellow Jt'lio lias invented a fuelless motor would turn his attention to bringing forth a fuelless furnace. Then we would say he was some real guy. Twenty years ago, we notice, Thom as R. Marshall was the democratic candidate for governor of Indiana and the slogan was "Marshall and the .Constitution." Today the slogan Is '‘Save Indiana.” Will we do it? The second time within about a j year the bank at Linn Grove has been I held up and robbed by bandits and Muri I.yberger is becoming used to the command, ‘ stick ’em up.” One of these days he will receive them in such a manner tliat they-won’t cart to come back. There ought to be some way to stop this work. = ’ Lets get going, lets keep going, lets get some where. Now is the time to step out and do things, plan arid finance Old Home Week, get a new industry or two, paint up apd clean up, Help home industries and home stores, get together and stay together ,in one big drive for a better community. Dynamiting the homes of the wealthy in Chicago may make some of them feel that perhaps it was not so smart to cater to the crowd which believes in that sort of thing. When a candidate promisee liberality he is setting himself in for some real troubles if he is elected. It Is impossible to break down the laws and control the riff-raff in a city like Chicago. A crack in the price of stocks on the New York exchange yesterday cost a lot of people their fortunes. •General Motors dropped from $l9B to •SIBO and others snapped accordingly. ■ln the meantime a seat on the exchange sold for $375,000, the buyer in his belief that what ever is ’advised or said, the people will con’tinue to try to get rich by outguess•ing the man who knows just what will ’happen on Wall street. 2 Say some thing good of Indiana — but before that can be done they will •have to muzzle Senator Robinson. • Every time he shoots off there are qo -many bad things said of Indiana that *it requires months to quiet it and Jabout that time he lets go with an-j •other wild statement that brings down •on him the wrath of the nation and • people get the idea that every Hoosier .is some kind of a freak or they would 'never have sent him to Washington. • We have an annonymous letter from some one who complains of the effort being made to hold an Old Home - Wwh Bet he hasn’t any idea of the good lime we had here on the previous occasion. Ho says if its held and ho has time he may go out on the street and listen, to the old tim-
ers toot their horns Say, ‘‘feller." you won't Co nothing else but stay out on the street for fear you will miss something for there will be something doing every minutte. Shake . that frosty feeling off and Join in . helping to put it over. Come up to I the meeting tonight and say your say. ’ Hon. Thomas H. Adams, the Vincennes crusader for a clean up In Indiana, gave bis speech from station • [' WOWO at Fort Wayne yesterday, 1 i thrilling many who heard him. He 1 J has but slight, if any chance to be ! nominated or elected governor, but i he is helping the democratic candi--1 dates prepare the way for a victory next November. We do not believe Mr. Adams could clean the state if he ware elected for he is sure to be surrounded and hampered by some of those who hate him as much as he bates graft and intrigue. To clean Indiana the people who really desire it should clean the state house by j ■ voting the democratic ticket. Protection for the automobile owner who picks up a passenger will be 1 sought when the legislature meets next January, the Hoosier Motor Club has announced in the Hoosier Motorist. The bill to be presented is expected to be similar- to the Connect!- j cut act that became effective last I July. It provides that any person who 1 accepts a free ride can not recover from the car owner in case of accident and has no cause of action unless the owner can be shown to have disregarded the rights of others. I Passenger guests, as the Hoosier Motorist calls them, may be divided into two clases—pedestrians or per-' sons waiting for street cars or buses, and hitch hikers who beg rides. Some times in an accident one of these persons is hurt and sues for damages. Courts have held that the owner is responsible. There is now less offering of rides to persons walking along ■ a rural highway because of the inI crease in banditry. Sometimes the passenger guest has pointed a revolver at the motorist and put him out of the car after taking hia valuables. In the cities most of the ride-begging is done by schoolboys whp sttynd at ' street intersections. This has been I discouraged by the safety campaign j leaders but the practice coutmues. — Indianapolis News. o—- * BIG FEATURES * * OF RADIO * g*«¥****«»**s: Wednesday's Five Best Radio Features Central Standard Time WEAF, hookup, 7 p. m—Magazine hour.

GEN 1 Ki "Wheu I started with Konjola my stomach was in a terrible condition and 1 had .been living on a spacial diet for several months,” said Mr. H. C. Gentry, 714 East New York St., Indianapolis, Ind. "but it soon made a new man out of me and I am glad to recommend it to others." "I suffered untold agony after eating as my food did not digest and a hard lump would seem to form in the pit of my stomach. After doctoring for a long time without, results, I began looking around for something else to give me relief. Konjola was suggested to me and I started taking it. It gradually began to relieve me, altluc it worked very slowly. 1 realized my suffering was of long standing and decided to give this medicine a fair trial. Now I have taken several bottles and can eat most anything I want without suffering afterward. The diets, which I formerly took, are a thing of the past. I'll never forget what Konjola did for me.” Kopjola is sold in Decatur at Smith Yager & Falk drug store and by al! the best druggists iu all towns thioughout tills section. i “LUMBAGO HAD ME ALMOST CRAZY” "The pain in my bark and the sudden ‘stitches' had me bent, double.
Sometimes the pain would catch me so sharply I almost fainted. 1 was frantic trying one thing after another. Y’ou can imagine my surprise, my joy, when plain ‘St. Jaeub’s Oil’ brought me the relief 1 had sought for years.” “St. Jacob's Oi I' ’ gives almost instant relief from soreness. I stiffness, lameness and
pain! Its action is unique—■soothing and penetrating in one. Goes direct to tile affected part and draws out all lite "ouch." It is one remedy for Lumbago. Rheumatism, (Neuritis, etc., tha|. never disappoints. And it doesn't burn the skin. Get a small trial bottle of "St. Jacob's Oil" from i any drug store and Uy it out.
