Chicago bandits have a now one now to maKc victims tell where their valuables are. Instead of shooting or beating them, they burn them with lighted cigarettes. Beautiful July days and every body busy making up lor the two or three weeks of bad weather. The crops are looking much better than a week ago and may yet average up except in spots where the over abundance oi water and the hot sun cooked them. If you drive over the main roads throughout the middle west you will find few towns or cities that do not maintain comfort stations and rest rooms and the real good towns go a step farther and provide other courtesies, including maps and information that aid the travelers and the visitors. Its a very important thing for every community in this age of auto travel. The old rule of supply and demand ■seems to have taken over the job of the farm relief board for even before they got to working the price has jumped some thirty or forty cents a bushel, due to the shortage as now indicated. We don't care much what causes it but we are all interested in the prices for farm products reaching that point which will again make agricultural pursuits profitable for those who engage in them. Governor Green, of Michigan, attended the races at Kalamazoo yesterday. He landed at two o’clock in the center of the space in front of the grandstand and he landed on his head. The plane in which he came hit an embankment and stood straight up for a minute or two before the governor and pilot extricated themselves. It was feature not on the program and every ont breathed relief when , she men emerged from I lie wreck. The Walther League has closed a great, convention in Fort Wayne, attended by thousands and many of the discussions in that body were of great interest, representing as it did a wide area and the delegates being men of character and force. None of the resolutions adopted were of greater Importance than that which stood for the home, to make it a real shrine, attractive to every member of the family. Thats the secret of a better America and a worth while campaign to enter. Obeying the traffic rules is not for the benefit of the officers but for you as a citizen and for the others who use the streets. You should want to do it because of the safety it brings the general public. If every fellow thinks he can slip across the stops signs or around the corner on the red lights, that practise grows and soon so many are doing it that we don't have any regulations. Os course if you won't do it. then the law must step In and that causes difficulties for every one concerned. Those iron here who attended the gridii circuit race meeting at Kalamazoo, Michigan, yesterday got a great thrill when Dr. H. M. Parshall, of Urbana, Ohio, tor several years a trainer and driver in the Ohio-Indiana fair circuit, won the $25,000 derby in three straight heats. It was a great day for him for to win with his unknown horse he had to outwit twenty

We came through Sturgis, Michigan, a mighty good small city, last evening at nine o'clock. The streets were crowded and the placed looked like a Saturday night, with every store doing business. We inquired what was going on and were informed that this was the usual crowd and the usual business for Tuesday and Thursday evenings. For two years past, the stores have featured these evenings. keeping open every other night through lhe summer and fall seasons and if you doubt the success, we advise you to drive up and investigate. You will find every body quite enthusiastic about it. Every right thinking American citizen is proud of the land in which he lives. He loves his country and his flag and he stands ready at all times to defend our national honor and our cherished institutions of freedom and democracy.

not had reason to doubt the patriotism of our people. As u peace time patriotic organization working for a greater America, the American Legion is striving to malntan this high standard of national loyalty which it believes Is the outstanding trait of a majority of our citizens. Service in time of war is the greatest patriotic duty any citizen can be entiled upon to perform. The American Legion realizes, liowever, that great things can be done for the progress of our nation through patriotic effort in time of peace. The citizen who would fight for his country in time of war should serve it just as zealously in time of peace. It is this spirit of public servce that actuated the formation of the legion. The legion is seeking to build a higher type of American citizenship by impressing upon all citizens their Individual obligations to community, state and nation. A full expression of patriotism will bring forth noble results. — Kendallvillf News-Sun. o ».»♦••»•»»»»•••** * TWENTY YEARS AGO * * From the Daily Democrat File * * Twenty Years Ago Today July 17 Big crowd jiere for the annual district Log Rolling.
