Talk about a night in June, but if anyone saw a more beautiful night than last night they had to go some. You'll feel happier on Thanksgiving day if you enroll in the Red Cross. The annual Roll Call closes Thursday. Were thankful that the Pilgrims inaugurated the first Thanksgigving and that the day has been observed for more than 300 years. These crisp days are Just the thing for this time of the .'ear. The temperature went down to about 20 above and on every hand you are reminded that winter is just around the corner. ft's a safe het that you did not get up between two anil three o'clock this morning to see the eclipse of the moon. And if you didn't you can't talk about it. It's almost as puzzling to the world what job President Coolidge is going to accept after tile fourth of March, as it was to the republican politkdans dining the campaign when he refused to make a speech for Mr. Hoover. Vincennes is making grand preparations for the George Rogers Clark centennial celebration next summer ami with the government donating a cold million dollars for the big show, everyone should be given an eye-full. Turn to the grocery and meat market pages in tonight's Daily Democrat and select your menu for the Thanksgiving dinner. The local food dealers give you a wide selection and if you can't supply your wants from the advertisements, your appetite is hard to satisfy. The county commissioners in Wells county ate heating an election contest case. The republican candidate for sheriff in that county won by the narrow margin of 14 votes and the democratic candidate is contesting the election The commissioners will have tin- sweet task of going over the ballots cast in the election and when they have decided the matter they surely will be among those who are thankful that it's over. The public is invited to attend the animal Unk'u Thanksgiving service of the Protestant churches, to be held at the Presbyterian church in this city Wednesday evening, An appropriate program will lx- given and prayers of Thanksgiving and words of appreciation by the ministers iu behalf of their congregations will be offered to the good Lord for his many blessings. The services will begin at 7:30 o'clock and a grateful people should be found in attendance. Thursday is a day of Thanksgiving, a day first set aside by our Pilgrim fathers to thank the kind Lord for His blessings and protection. If our Pilgrim fathers, more than 300 years ago, were thankful, and they were, for the meager worldly blessings of the day, how much more should we of today be? Compare our comforts ami blessings with those of three centuries ago. We'll sit around home, romp with the kiddies, wait for mother to call dinner, take a spin in the auto, go to a theater or football game, tune in the radio and by night call it a day. Sure we are grateful and i

The Decatur banks are not selfish when they invite you to Join oue of the Christmas clubs. It's to your benefit that you do. The banks do ail the work of taking care of your account and pay you four per cent, on your savings besides. Ready money next Christmas will do much to brighten the holiday season and make shopping a pleasure for you. Enroll in one of the Christmas dubs, make your payments each week and next Christmas receive a check for fifty, one hundred or more dollars. You can get a thrill out of saving money, the same as from spending it. The whole world was excited again over the whereabotus of Col. Charles Lindberg, who did not show up at the exact minute in Mexico City the other day. It developed that "Lindy"- was enjoying a duck hunt on a ranch in Mexico and had taken off in his plane, unannounced to the world and Monday found him safely in San Antonio, Texas. No one person seems to hold the place in the hearts of the people of America and of the entire world as does Lindberg. The public is interested in his every move and any rumor of danger to him flies faster than his plane. In other words he is the most popular young man in the world and everyone is interested in his safety. Luck to him. President-elect Herbert Hoover is considering plans for transferring the enforcement of the federal prohibition law from the treasury department to the department of justice. Since the Volstead law became effective the enforcement of the measure has beeu under the supervision of the treasury department. Congress must authorize the change and those who have watched the apparent feeble efforts of the last two national administrations are willing that a change tie made. But the trouble is, the country will find about the same kind of men in the department of justice division as iu the treasury department, and the question promises to be a hot one after the fourth of next March. England, in fact all of Europe and North America, is much concerned in the condition of George the Fifth, King of England. For several days the ruling monarch of the British Empire has been confined to his bed suffering from a severe cold and fever. Pleurisy lias aggravated the king's condition and bulletins issued by the physicians are eagerly watched by millions. The people of England love their king. He is only 63 years old and his death at this time would lie most untimely. In the event of his death the question arises if England would continue as a monarchy, the heir to the throne, the Prince of Wales, being a very democratic sort of a fellow and apparently not much inclined to the life of reserve, as associated with kings. —o *¥¥¥¥¥•-¥♦♦¥»* • BIG FEATURES • • OF RADIO ♦ K ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ ¥ X ***** K WEDNESDAY’S FIVE BEST RADIO FEATURES WEAF—NBC Network 7 pm.

It is remarkable but true, that two bottles of thii" ( marvelou ; remedy restored my health f completely, and my system seems en tirely rebuilt. My appetitie is fine * my nervousness is at an end. and tin ’ sleepless nights are a thing of tht » past.
