There will be cattle, horses, . other livestock, products of about ( every kind, flowers and fancy work, j It's to be a big show. ' — —1 China expects to spend six million { dollars a month for war with Russia. ' That's a snug little sum and spent in gunpowder and tear gas and hard r tack is foolish but it would hardly f have paid the cigaret bill of the a American army of four million in the I recent world conflict. ' ’ t Decatur should have a building r code, one that makes every one de- s siring to build or improve property, t to file specifications with the city au- r thorities and secure a permit. It. a would not be much trouble to any a one and would provide information v that is often dines valuable. v “”——-—-— , The court refused Dr. Snook's mo- f- „ tion for a new trial and did it in j j; rather curt language which is not 7 much of a surprise. He will of course t 2 contest it through the court of ap- - ~ peals and the supreme court and a “ may thus put off the fateful day a ( — few weeks or months. One would t • think that a fellow in such a “pickle” ( « would be glad to go it over. He has e . been sentenced to die November 29. — - f ■* Decatur hits complied with all th.' • 1: ” requirements again for a lower inw c - surance rate and we hope this time it - is forthcoming as the engineer of * the Indiana inspection bureau ha:- 4 _ promised. We have excellent equip- 4 2 ment, one of the best water plants it. J ”” the state, good men on the job as firemen and everything which should \ entitle us to a lower rate. Let's have it this time or forever quit bluffing about it. \ The time is at hand when you will ' either support those who have worked for weeks to put on a street fair or you will not. Os course you ought to if you expect your community t< go forward. If you are asked to as- 1 sist in any way, do it willingly and ( with a smile and one of the irnpor ' tant things right now is to pay the subscription so that every expense can be met promptly. The committee will call in the next few days. If some one would kindly suggest to the state highway commission that serious chances are being taken each day, some safety arrangemen is not made to protect the public against dangers at the Pennsylvania crossing .near Monmouth, we are sure it would hurry the improvemen’ along. The commission, like every body of that kind, does 'he things they are urged most to do and often times we delay securing co-operation from them by neglecting to call their attention to the facts. The Jay county fair has a deficit this year of $2,7)110 and the managers down, that way now have something 3 to work ouj. They will ask for aid |ta>m the eountj’ commissioner and Mali to increase! the prices of admission next year. The fair has been operating 1 rather successfully for some fifty years but the day of the old-fashioned county fair seems to be passing at least temporarily. It is so easy these days to drive to a street fair or exposition and there

They ought to be but it is more likely that some are lower while others are of particular benefl' to those who have their fingers on the right key, may be higher. The .trouble with every tariff law is that it's unfair or at least seems so to most folks. Just twenty years ago a sim liar tariff revision occurred. The people didn't say much until it was passed and then they cussed and discussed It until it split the Republican party. If those in power now are wise they will completely revise the lew and make it a decent one for everybody concerned. An eastern woman with considermoney and plenty of faith has inaugurated a new movehicnt. She will attempt to organize a chain of colonies throughout the United States in which "hypocracy and gossip.” which she terms the two deadly evils, are never to appear. There will be, she says, a series of farming communities. each populated by people sworn never to pretend they are what they are not and never to carry idle talcs about their neighbors. These towns will be self-sufficient; the inhabitant will raise their own food and will be economically independent, so that the false values of a coldly material civilization will not have so many chances to affect them. That's a tine thing to be thinking alront but that’s about as far as she will get. In this age of radio, daily aewspapers. telephones and other means of transportation of ideas and fashion, everybody is just about like everybody else. Hypocracy and gossip are a part of each individual wherever found and eradicating these two evils is more easily talked about than ac- , complished. ****** ****** * BIG FEATURES * • OF RADIO * K***>J***««**F Wednesday Five Best Radio Features WOR — CBS Network Six Simons' show boat.

Thousands of porcelain fixtures —each worth many dollars! You wouldn’t use a “pot-and-pan” cleanser —that’s sure. You would make careful tests —for thoroughness, sanitation, speed, and particularly for their effect on fine surfaces. That's exactly what the great hotels, office buildings and hospitals have done. They chose Wyandot—they’ve used nothing else for years. Millions saved! Your home—6 or 8 rooms and a bath or two—is as important to you as the hotel is to its owners. You can now give it all the advantages of Wyandot cleaning. Grocers are ready with this, the greatest of all the triumphs of The J. R. Ford Company. Big package only 15c. Get it today.
