If they will postpone war until all the debts from the recent one are paid it will be put off long enough that it won’t bother "most of us or our children or there grand children. L L _ -L. 'J Unless the weather man has some urgent reason for turning the water valve this week he can accomodate a lot of folks here by postponing it a few days. Just one more day to see the great street fair, admitted by every one to be an event worth while. Have a good time and be sure to see the many exhibits of Adams county products. Congress plans to redistrict Indiana congressionally. Well there is this about it from a democratic viewpoint, they can’t make it much worse than it has been since Johnny Adair quit running. Stock prices are nervous according ing to reports from Wall street and many are closing cut their holdings. That’s the safe way to do it and you will probably have more money in the long run if you stay closed up. If the program this week doesn’t please you, we are inclined to believe you can’t be satisfied with a street fair. The program is excellent and sufficient, there is something doing all the time and the agricultural side of the fair is particularly interesting.

r TODAY’S CHUCKLE L Lebanon, Ind., —(UP) — When Sheriff Sandlin learned that Ralph Smith. 31, had, daubed a cemetery tombstone with red paint an arrest ’• wus in order. The sheriff did his ’• stuff but not until after Smith had • smeared the officer's face with the pplnt. . if all the old cars in Adams county 1 ) took part in the parade yesterday ) i most of the folks have traded them • in for the balloon tired, low swung > j modern cars. At thut it was an in- • teresting event. The speed demon is a pest on the roads of course but not much worse than the fellow who peddles along as 1 though he was making a slow motion picture. That guy sure does exasperate the fellow in a hurry behind him on a traffic crowded highway. Decatur is entertaining thousands of visitors each day and we have heard many fine things said about the , community. That's what we all want and have been working tor these many years and showing off our town is one of the good things of weeks like this. Hundreds of Bluffton and Wells county folios have helped to swell the crowds here this week and in just two weeks we will have the opportunity to return that favor. The Bluffton street fair has been famed for many years as one of the best in all the land and the program for this year indicates this will be better than ever. Remember its week after next and plan to go over and visit the big annual show at Bluffton. There may be many reasons for the removal of Mr. Legge, chairman of the newly created farm board and Senators LaFollette and Brookhart may know them but it does seem as though any man holding such an important job should have at least a few weeks in which to work out a plan for relief. Legge resigned a job which paid him SIOO,OOO per year to assume this one and we are for giving him a cnance to prove that he was ever worth that amount. Several hundred farmers have told us how much they have been pleased by the exhibit of farm products and

live stock here this week. They have enjoyed it greatly und do not hesitate to say so and there Is every reason why similar events should be held from year to year. There cun be improvements of course as there can be In every thing we do, but the boys 1 have set up a good pattern with their ' 1929 show und we are sure every body will be glad to have them decide to continue. ■ Efforts of those In charge of the I Decatur street fair to keep the midway clean deserve commendation. When they learned that two or three I of the concessioners were trying to operate gambling devices they promptly closed them up. The people do not find fault with decent games but they do object to "skin games” aud these will not be permitted to operate, those in charge announce. 1 ‘ We're proud of the trail we blaz- ! ed‘‘ was the heading of a page announcement signed by six of the old- ' est and leading firms of business men in Decatur. They have a right to be < for It means much to have been in business so long a time and still re- s tain the confidence and the patronage 1 of the people. Only because they have 1 c played the game on the level and have helped by personal service, sub- * scriptiou and sacrifice to aid the community have they been able to do that. We are proud of them, we re- < peat and likewise proud of all those who have followed in the pathway ' they helped to blaze. — s FOR SALE—Large galvanized tanks and iron kettles for sale at less than half price.
