If you took advantage of all the bargains offered in the Dollar sales today you are fortunate. - Most of us wanted to and most of us did go as far as we could. It was a splendid success.

Fort Wayne is hoping for a population of 142,000 by next year when the census is taken. We hope they have it but we would hesitate in betting more than an old fashioned three-cent piece they do. Since time began it lias been the accepted supposition that its the woman who pays and pays and pays, but what about Gene Tunuey? He gave a much offended woman $35,000 and supposed he had her hushed. Now she insists on a half million more. If you want to really see some old fashioned scones more beautiful than any painter has yet been able to copy, get in your old bus some evening and drive out in the country. Then get off the main drags and on to some of the by-ways not travelled so heavily. You will be surprised at the wonderful homes and farms youifind there and the whole scene is sure to make you happy you are living. There is a slight delay in the building of the concrete road from Decatur to the state line east but we are glad it is no longer Jian a month or two. Mr. Titus now believes the contract will be let early in August which probably means the grading will be done this year so the concrete can he poured early in the spring. There is nothing to worry about except to do what we can to hurry along the construction of a paved road east aud west through the county. The young fellow who went to Europe as a stowaway in an airplane is not getting much of a play. He was roundly criticized and rightly by the French citizens, many of whom believe that his additional weight in the ship was the cause of making the brave pilots fail in their flight to Rome as planned and his efforts to pose as a cheap hero sickened the rest of them. He will not be as popular here as he supposed he would be and all in all his effort seems to have been pretty much of a failure. There were 40,960 marriages in Indiana last year, a loss of about 1,200 over the year previous but it evens things up, there were also less divorces, 7,737 as compared to 7,973. Lake county led the state for marriage licenses with a total of 5,901. Clark county, ranking 23rd in population in the state registered third in number of marriage licenses issued and had the lowest divorce rate, one to 42. Seems as though a lot of floaters get into Clark county about the time they are struck by one of cupids darts. They probably get married there aud divorced at home. , foliar Day has. convinced every one, and i patrons that getting together; .and pulling together is the. finest thing'in the world for every one. We call attention of those who traded in Decatur today that they never were offered a greater opportunity anywhere than was given them in Decatur today. Every merchant went the limit and you have had the chance

? TODAY’S CHUCKLE Knoxville, Tenn. — (U.K) — When somebody left the stable door open at the stables of Freeman Brothers, here, a derelict bay mare t wandered in and made herself at home. 2 of buying the finest goods on the mcrJ ket at surprisingly low prices. Local j merchants are alive to the fact that ? they must meet the competition of ) the larger cities and they are preparJ ed to do that. With a lower overhead and just as good or better buying facilities, with a desire to Increase their trading radius and to i please every customer, old aud new, they are putting forth their best efforts all the time. Every day cannot be a Dollar Day but every day you trade in Decatur you may rest assured you are getting the most for your money you can get any where. 1 Thats the finest kind of a trade at ; home campaign and we congratulate , the merchants for their progressiveness. Such a spirit can't be whipped and such a community as this is sure to step ahead.

The appellate court of Indiana yesterday invoked a new state law for the first time and a speeding up of justice can be 1 expected. The court struck a blow at the practice of appealing from convictions and going , free on bail pending the decision of the higher court when it refused bail to a Muncie |nan convicted on a , liquor law charge. The denial of bail i was based on a 1929 law which requires in all criminal appeal cases the appellant can be admitted to bail only when the court of appeal considers there is cause for probable reversal of the case. The appellate court pointed out that after a man is convicted his status changes. Prior to trial he is presumed to be innocent until proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. After conviction he is presumed to be guilty and the new law places the burden upon him, of making a showing of probable reversal error in his application for bail. It has long been the practice to delay justice in criminal cases uy taking appeals. Application of the new statute and the placing of the burden upon the defendant after conviction should end some of the delay.—Newcastle Courier. *»♦*•*♦*♦*♦♦♦•♦♦* * TWENTY YEARS AGO * * From the Daily Democrat File * * Twenty Years Ago Today June 27, 1909 was Sunday. o — Household Scrapbook By ROBERTA LEE The Hairbrush Rub half a cupful of salt and flour in equal proportions through the bristles of a hairbrush to make it as clear, as new.
