The Decatur street fair and agricultural show' is now' being advertised over a fifty mile radius and every indication is bright for a great crowd, a fine time and the biggest program ever offered here. If you are driving your car without a license you are very foolish, its a part of the Indiana law and in case of an accident you might get yourself in very serious trouble. There is no doubt that the corn borer is a bad thing to have around but there are ways to get rid of it and thats what the Adams county farmers will do when they become bothersome. A friend was kind enough to show us one of the new SI,OOO bills, it didn't look like it was worth the money but he explained it was a “baby grand."
The number of accidents over the week end was reduced slightly in the state over Sunday, the total being but thirteen as compared to twenty-five the week before. It was however probably more luck than carefulness. Its weed cutting time again and property owners are requested to look after this important job at once. Unless you do you will probably he potified by the health officials and street commissioners and then if you fail it will be necessary to do the job and tax it against the property. ” Os course some thing will have to be done to stop the stowaway practise but at that we would hate to see a lad with as much nerve as Albert Ituschkla showed when he hung on the Graf the other day, punished very severely and we don’t believe he will be. .In the contest on the tariff schedutes as between the foreign sugar borons and the American farmers the sentiment of the people will be largely with the latter and Mr. Andrew Fuelling, president of the Indiana Beet (Grower’s Association explains the matter in a very good way in an interview.
A drunken man in an automobile on the road between here and the Meyer farm south of town caused some worry Sunday afternoon. Its a dangerous practise and those who so engage should expect to he severely punished. If you must get full keep away from the wheel of an automobile. If some one has the nerve to go into the house building business in a large way we are sure they can secure splendid financial returns. A hundred modern houses that could be sold on payments would find ready buyers. Thats the way to increase the population here live hundred by 1930 and that would help. Recording to Mr. Brisbane you can Judge a city by Its schools. He says when they are neglected city officials are dishonest and unfit. It he is right Decatur should have a splendid future

Two men and a girl were captured yesterday and lodged In Jail at Defiance, Ojilo, after robbing two stores at Hlcksville. They were bold and’ evidently had been successful in other similar affairs but a posse ran them down and they will now pay. Its the end that usually comes to those who thus seek riches in other ways but tlie honest method of earning it. The passengers in the Graf Zeppelin which crossed the ocean in ninetythree hours did not seem over enthusiastic. We can't Imagine being uncomfortable when you ran make the trip in four days in a liner that has every convenience of a first class, modern hotel. The time may come when air travel will be more popular but its quite some time away except for the novelty and speed.

Why are there so many charming women today? NEVER before have there been so many charming women. ' m Wherever you go, you find them. Vivacious, happy, beautiful, delightfully dressed in the most exquisite taste. Clear, pink-and-white complexion, luxurious, well kept hair, gleaming teeth, trim athletic carriage—these are almost universal characteristics of American women of today. Why? At first thought it may sound absurd, but one of the most powerful teachers has been advertising. Advertising has helped to teach us all that the real basis of beauty is health and cleanliness. We are greatest users of soap and water in the world. Advertising has taught us how to care for our teeth, our hair, our feet, our hands and our 'complexions. Advertising has taught us how to dress — how to choose colors and fabrics and becoming styles. Advertising has taught us how to talk, how to entertain. . One reason why so many women are charming is because so many women are reading advertising. From advertising they are learning the secrets of great beauty specialists. They are getting health inf or mation of inestimable value. They are learning too secrets of becoming dress fro mthe famous .designers of Paris and New York. Decatur Daily Democrat
