A number from here attended the Frank Dailey meeting at Fort Wayne last night and are more enthusiastic than ever if mats possible. There is one tine quality that surely no one doubts, about Governor Smith. He is unafraid. He is also honest and he says what he thinks without dodging or quibbling. Drop a dollar or two or a dime or two into one of the Red Cross boxes. The money will be rushed to Florida where perhaps some of your dearest friends are in need of aid. Its about time for the officers to again call attention of some drivers to the fact that the stop signs mean stop and that reckless driving will not be permitted here. It has to be done every so often it seems. The first meeting of consequence in this county so far arranged is that of Friday. October sth, when Governor John M. Parker, of Louisana, will speak. He is able and worth hearing and the-court house should be packed on that occasion. Prosecutor Remy down in Marion county is still "going to go to the bottom of things,” according to his recent statement. There has been so many attempts at this that we have about given up hope of them ever finding the bottom there. Whether you wish to believe it or not, the autumn weather is very near. We have a little touch of it this week. How about your winters supply of fuel ami other things that make the cold season more comfortable for the family? Its sure time to think about it. The Independent Equality for Agriculture club wiiich is now being organized in this district under supervision of Dr. M. T. Jay should be of great value to the farmers. Its time for them to assert themselves and to demand certain things that have been given to every class excepting them. The 1929 automobile licenses plates for Indiana are now being shipped to the various stations. They are exactly like those of this year except for the color, the new ones being orange on a black back ground. Its a little early for they will not be issued for about three months but its alright to have them ready. When a farmer asked Senator Curtis, the republican candidate for vice-president a few questions the other night, he lost his head and replied, “You're too damn dumb to understand.” Thats the theory of some folks. They think the general run of voters are so ignorant they can put over the same old story and get away with it. What do you think? The people of Florida and the West Indies are suffering as a result of the recent terrific storms and the appeil of the Red Cross should not go unanswered. Os course you have many expenses and worries of your own but in such a crisis as this the American people never fail. Adams county must do her full share in this drive. Don't lets drop the matter of re

n TODAY’S CHUCKLE 1 El Paso. Tex Sept 22 <U.R)The Rev. H. D. Tucker has begun to sell tickets for his prayer meeting services at Asbury Methodist P- church. He reports Increased attenr. dance. t '• vlving sales days in Decatur. They were for years the best trade draw2 j ing plan ever used here and from reJ ports from numerous towns and cities 5 In this section, still are where used. !’ If we add to the gift distribution, 9 some attractive bargains, the old town will prosper and will attract visitors from a radius of muny miles. A Bluffton man who was sent to the reformatory for larceny will ( spend an additional year there be- . cause he stole a suit of underwear from the prison store room. Seems like some folks can’t help it once they have formed the habit of steal- * ing but it certainly takes courage or a lack of sense for a prisoner to steal 3 i while he is serving time, don’t it? . I —i — ■ — We presume there are some folks in Indiana who will not vote for ■ Frank C. Dailey for governor but " i surely they have not heard his frank > and sensible speech or his promise to s serve during the next four years. Mr. Dailey is considered one of the best attorneys of the middle west and to ! secure his services at $8,500 per year is an opportunity that should not be 1 ovet looked. When making up your mind how you will vote in Indiana this year, it ’ is well to remember Walb, Jackson, 1 Stephenson, McCray, Robinson, Du--1 ' vail, Coffin, “birds of a feather,” the riding horse, numerous scandals and a lot of other things which though called to your attention only a few months ago by Tom Adams and other i . republicans, may now be forgotten in the rush of things. "If you people are really ready for 1 ! a new deal and see fit to elect me 1 governor of Indiana, we won't waste much time getting back to the simple, old fashioned way of just being honest i and once more running the state on ■ a sound business basis. If I'm the man for the job. I’ll tackle it with all I I've got." — Statement by Frank C. Dailey. Surely you are ready for it and will choose this man in November. During the last month the Federal Land Bank in St. Louis has had over 300 inquiries about Missouri farms, which is ten times the number received a year ago during the same period of the year, indicating that i there is a trend towards normalcy on 1 the prices and sale of farm lands. You are right now at the place where you can buy a farm for less than it is really worth. That condition can ■ not and will not last long. You can , scarcely make a better investment. * TWENTY YEARS AGO * * From the Daily Democrat File ¥ * Twenty Yeara Ago Today • * *****¥»»»»»li i Sept. 22 —J. O.
