BOOSTING LIMBERLOST: — The following editorial appeared in the Fort Wayne News-Sentinel and calls attention to an important thought, that of getting back of the great Limberlost project and making this section of Indiana, from Rome City to Geneva, that territory made famous by the nature books of the late Mrs. Porter: "We congratulate the people of our neighbor city, Decatur, on having so graciously paid honor to the memory of Indiana's distinguished novelist. Gene Stratton Porter, at ceremonies dedicating a memorial to the lover of the Limberlost, in the yard of the Adams county court house. Fort Wayne is pleased to regard herself as the center and metropolis of the Gene Stratton Porter county, situated between the novelist's old home town of Geneva. a neighbor of Decatur, and her later residence near Rome City. Thousands of our people have been delighted by the nature stories and homespun romances of Mrs. Porter, whose tragic death a few years ago Drought a heavy loss to the whole country — and to Indiana in particular, since it was this state that provided so many colorful backgrounds for her stories. It was fitting that the governor, two senators and a number of other prominent personages should have been present at the dedication of the dedication of the Porter memorial. for, through her works, Mrs. Porter rendered Hoosierdom a distinct service and was able to keep alive a memory of the days 1 when the great outdoors had not l been sullied and spoiled by “civil- , ization.” ( At the dinner given Wednesday 1 evening at the Decatur Country club by the Cloverleaf Creameries, many fine things and all of them true w’ere said about Will Klepper and Earl Martin. It was a wonderful meeting and in many ways. No industry in ' the middle west has done more to 1 actually relieve farm conditions than ’ the dairy industry and no institution 1 has been better conducted than the 1 Cloverleaf Creameries. Through good 1 times and bad times they have moved 1 onward in the march of progress and have not only a model plant but one of the greatest business organizations < in the country. As Mr. Klepper said in his response, much of the credit belongs to the farmer and to the workers in the stations and plants. Any way we are proud of the Cloverleaf and of every one connected with it and we are glad that the Dairy Day was again a real success in every way. We agree with every thing , said by the speakers at the dinner and . multiply it by a hundred. ( September is the Roman centurion of the year, a Roman of the old discipline but in the beginning of the 'decline. He stands as the sentry stood with the ashes of Vesuvius coming 1 down and passes away, but does not move. The dead leaves are falling. < The acorns are thumping down. The old order is passing, but the centurion stands with his face to the bright col- < ors of destruction and dies as the captain of a hundred. There is the last bloom of the hollyhock at the tip of the stalk. The Virginia creeper is ( coloring against the wall. The cricket, a harvest fly, and katydid give night the voices of the crypt. The red pips are heavy in the wild rose. September stands at the gate brave in his discipline and bright armor. The martins fly south. The warblers come

The goldfish flashes In the sunflower. Cloth of gold spreads over the ground and the centurion dies at his post. We regret the accident of the Lockheed Vega monoplane which occurred in this county and we hope sincerely for the speedy recovery of the brave men who fell with it. Colonel ‘William Thaw 11, famous war flier and Captain John Morris, both of Pittsburgh were injured in the wreck. Calls and telegrams from every part of the country, from friends, newspapers, news bureaus and others were answered from here all day yesterday and today and special planes came here to get pictures of the wrecked plane. This paper sent Paul Edwards, local photographer to the scene and had pictures of it by three o’clock yesterday, a record that was appreciated and these were no doubt the first photos of the plane. Hundreds visited the scene. as a result of the Old Home Week or 1928 we can assist in creating greater interest in the Limberlost and the possibilities for making this sec tion of the state known world wide, we will have done much. Millions of people have read of the Limberlost In the books of Mrs. Porter. Few of them have any thing but a vague idea as to just where it was. We are trying to tell them and we are sure the publicity given to our celebration this week, has aided greatly. It is not only sentiment but the best kind of business. Events come and go and the things that are worth while are those which live on. Bluffton papers have boosted Old Home Week here in a very earnest manner and this publicity has brought many people here for the various days. The best way we can return the favor is to boost them and we will of course. Bluffton's street fair which will be held week after next will be as it always has been, a high grade free entertainment with a program that you will regret missing, which we hope you won't. If you go there and don't have a good time, see a doctor, for there is something wrong with you. The Adams County Witness gives indications of getting nasty in the campaign. Os course it has been agreed by the newspapers of the country, by the politicians of each party and by the candidates themselves to keep the campaign on a high level and to discuss the issues but the Witness probably don't care any thing about that. Old Home Week is passing and will soon be over. It has been a great event in every way and we are sure the benefits will be numerous and will be felt for years to come. It will close tomorrow with Mardi Gras. We hope and know you will have a good time. » !.L_I'LL!L”« This is Industrial Day of Old Home Week, not by any means the least important for it represents the business of this territory. The parade this afternoon gave some idea of how and why we are prosperous.’ The big week will close tomorrow evening with Mardi Gras and a gay old time. Hundreds and hundreds of those who once called Adams county and Decatur home have been here each day this week, a feature that couldn't possibly have been bought with money but yet the most enjoyable one of all. Fraternal Day exemplified how people of every opinion can work together, march together and be happy. It was a real show and the various organizations did their part and did it well. We are grateful. o D. H. S. Athletic Association Dance at Masonic Hall, Saturday Night, September 15, Park Plan. 218t2

MAUD HARRIS Health and happiness after eight years of suffering. No wonder Mrs. Maud Harris, R. R. No. 3, Eaton, 0., who has many acquaintances in Indiana, is enthusiastic about Konjola, the wonder remedy. "For eight terrible years I suffered the worst form of stomach trouble imaginable," says Mrs. Harris. “All 1 ate turned to gas, causing pain and heart palpitation. My condition became so serious that I spent three weeks in a hospital, where I was packed in ice for days. That failed, and I had given up hope. "So intense was my agony that I rolled on the floor. Neuritis set in, adding to my misery. When all seemed hopeless, a friend recommended Konjola. and I started taking the new medicine. In a few days 1 began to feel relief, and in three weeks I was restored to perfect health. Pains vanished as if by magic. I can eat anything: am, in fact, a new woman. Do you wonder that I am happy to tell everyone I know what this master medicine lias done in my case, one that seemed hopeless.” Konjola is sold in Decatur, Ind., at Smith. Yager & Falk's drug store, and by all. the best druggists in all towns throughout this entire section.
