You should urge each one in the family to take out a saving card aud to make the payments promptly. A dollar a week in a Christmas club will give you a neat sum for your shopping in 1929 aud besides that Us a thrifty and sensible thing to do. * '•« « «■—. ■■■». Tomorrow is the day ing and should be so observed. You should be thankful for many things and should not forget to say so. Join the Led Cross and help this great organization whose business is to give immediately relief to thsoe who suffer from storms, tires or disaster. The Adams post of the American Legion have chosen capable officials for the coming year and thia post should gain in numbers, in power aud in actual accomplishments. We predict that for the oganization. Fair an d moderate weather for over Thanksgiving is the prediction from the weather bureau, so you mayplan accordingly it' you have faith in thaf bureau which hits it every ouce in a while. With proper co-operation of the people of Adams county, we can secure two wonderful federal highways through here. Its very important that we take them while we can 'nor we may not always have the op- «■ portunity. Sir George Knibbs of Londou says that in a hundred years the world will be so crowded that the earth will not be able to feed or support theftl. That seems to se#le the farm relief question though it may be a little to far off to help the farmer of today. Over eight hundred auto licenses were issued in Indiana this year, which brought into the treasury over live million dollars and some ten or twelve millions for gas taxes. These modern inventions sure do make the; «t money circulate in one way or another. The Christmas spirit is starting eariy this year and we are giad of it. Do you remember when a youngster Cfi that much of the joys of the season came from the anticipations? Old Santa is on the children and lie has a big full pack and plenty of every thing. The expense accounts of treasurers aud sub,-treasurers, of candidates and others so required under the law, have been or arc now being file,(J» The reports show that such campaigns cost some real money but after all ifs a great part of life and we would grow dull and perhaps lazy in this country if we didn't have our politics. The democratic county committee report here shows a deficit and of course it is needless lo say that contributions will be cheerfully and thankfully accepted. It takes a real soldier to help pay a deficit but we are sure the fighting democratic soldiers of good old Adams county will come to the rescue with a smile. J The deficit in the postoffice department for the year was $33,000,000 or just about the price of one good battle

Smith of New York may become the coma i for the port of authority for the city of YHhv York, one of the most important tasks in America and • (mb which he Is big enough to handle. .If he does it he will do ft well, don't fret about that. • Eleven business aud professional men from lndianagplis entered federal prison at L&veuworth today, having been convicted for stealing automobiles aitff receiving stolen goods. They deserve no sympathy and here's hoping all the rest of these transgressors will be sent to join them in the near future. Such men are no good to a community any wav _________ 3 Tlfc llness of King George of the British Empire continues to be quite serious and when illness continues serious so many days, it alarqjj the people of his country. King (£»>rge is very popular for without laying claims to great ability he has used good judgment always and has*stood steadfast-j ly for bis people. Millions are praying for his recovery. Michigan City is another Indiana town now so financially ill that the council had to suspend the rules and pass an ordinance providing for a loan of $50,000 with which to pay the salaries of city employes before Christmas and an outstanding fact is that this is the ouly Indiana city op- i crating under the city manager plan! They did better under the old form. ] The Industrial Association willjueet next Wednesday night at which time! any suggestion you may have for the good of the community will be appreciated. The year has beeu a success- j ful one iu this community and one of j a the big events was the Old Home j Week celebration which was iu every way successful and which was so I financed that a comfortable balance is | on hands Tor starting another one. a? An epidemic of influenza is sweep ] i ing certain sections of the country. In Shelby county, Indiana, the schools are closed and hundreds of cases have been reported. In various parts of the west the disease has a hold and added to this there comes now reports of u%merous cases of spinal meningitis, Is your radio set a year old if it is, and is alii; using its origins! vacuum tubes, it needs an entire new set of RCA Radiotrons.

all of which Is culled to your attention ho tliat you may be as careful as possible. Watch that light cold, it may become serlo*H No good citizen will do auy tftlng which will delay the building of stale roads through this county. They are as important now as railroads .were a half century Once these- state highways are fixed, they will be lmI proved and maintained and the traffic 1 offer them will grow constantly. They i mean much for the territory through r which tlity pass and much for the county. Each mile of state road relieves the county of that much main--1 taiumce and takes traffic_from the comity roads, thus increasing the length of service for them. Bo a ’ booster for better roads^ ' The contract for concrete pavement ■ of the Franklin highway between • Huntington and Peru was let yesterday. When this is complete, the pavement will extend from Huntington to 1 Monticello, the road from west having been constructed this 1 year. It is the opinion of road men ' that this road will be paved entirely across the state within two years. How about doing your Christmas early?

Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets—a substitute for calomel—were prepared by Dr. Edwards after 20 years of study. Olive Tablets are a purely vegetable compound mixed with olive oil. Know 1 them by their olive color. To have a clear, pink skin, bright eyes, no pimples, a feeling of buoyancy like childhood days you must get at the cause. Dr. Edwards’ Olive Tablets act on the liver and bowels like calomel- yet have no dangerous after effects. They start the bile and overcome constipation. Take nightly and note the pleasing results.
