If you have missed any thing at the street fair you still have a fewhours in which to make It up. The weather man has been fairly decent this week, though a little more sunshine would have been ac-« ceptable. However, the clouds did not seem to keep many at home for the crowds have been large. The police department deserve credit for the splendid order mainm tained during the week and for the » way they have handled traffic. Its • quite a problem but we believe it has X' been very well taken care of. Premiums are being paid today and every body is happy, especially those fortunate enough to get in on that part of the program. The promptness of the committee is assurance that they know their business when ’ it comes to conducting a fair. Oh my goodness, they are going to hang Capone on poor old Indiana , now. He is to be summoned as a witness in the Calumei district investigation. Now it can be added to the Stephenson. Walb and a dozen other disgraces that the famous gangster also had a “finger in the pie” in manipulations of a shady hue. - , The Legion deserves credit, heaps of it, for the management of the fair. They have proven beyond any doubt if there ever was any, that they can do things and do them well. We hope ' they'repeat the fair, making it an annual event, growing and improving from year to year as it will if they conduct it. —- * It is impossible to single out those who assisted in making the fair the great success it was for each did his part splendidly. Paul Graham, general chairman, assisted by a bunch of loyal Legion men and citizens in general, did a good job. Chairmen of each committee worked hard and got results and we congratulate each and all of you. In about a month the big sugar mill here will open for their annual campaign of sugar making. That means the payment of thousands Os dollars to the farmers who have engaged in this business and the employment of between two and three hundred men to keep the plant going for when it once starts there Is no closing down until the last beet has been ground into pure white sugar. We are glad the factory will be operated and hope that every one who has raised beets as well as the Holland-St. Louis company will show a handsome profit and that the business can be doubled next year as it should be. Just a few more hours and the Decatur street fair tor 1929 will be a chapter of the history of the community. It has been a great week, enjoyed we feel sure, by almost every one who participated. The premiums are being paid, there is much good will among the farmers and the citizens of the town and as an adver tising medium, we have done well. During weeks like these general bus iness is quiet but the good comes from the fact that we meet old friends
r TODAY’S CHUCKLE Albany, N. Y. — (UP) — The World Serios knocks politics for a loop in the opinion of Mayor >, John Boyd Thacher, 2nd So he is >. not going to begin his campaign t seeking re-election until after the champions have been picked. ■ and make new ones and the total for ’ the year should be Increased. Any ) way its a good thing for all of us to J play a few days and to not think too > much about the returns. \ ' The city of Chicago is $18,000,000 worse off than nothing, in other words they owe that much and the aldermen are worrying over plans to rei Here a very serious proposition. A few months ago they had to close the schools of that city because of a shortage of money, evidently due to . the fact that the appropriations for that purpose were being side-tracked. Its about time for some big man of Chicago to take charge of business or they will have a smash-up one of these days that will hurt. They now propose to fire 1,500 cops that they never needed or who at least did not do much to benefit the community and they can no doubt save money by getting rid of a lot of inspectors and other fellows who are just on Thomp- * son’s political ring payroll. R. B. Cooley of the Purdue Extension Department who assisted in judging the live stock at the fair this week stated that the horse show was the finest he had seen any where in the middle west. His opinion was reaffirmed by many others qualified to speak and those who doubt it should have spent an hour or two looking over the fine specimens exhibited here, indicating that Adams county farmers still have as good horse flesh as can be found. A few years ago this was recognized as the greatest market between Pittsburgh and Chicago and a horse sale company did a million dollars worth of ' horse business a year. Its coming i back and the farmers of this county l will again have the opportunity of ■ cashing in on this part of tile pro- > ducts of their farms. i o MODERN ETIQUETTE By ROBERTA LEE Q.

FASCISM SAID TO BE STRONG II Duce Relinquishes His Portfolios Because Os This Belief Rome, Sept. 14 — (UDI —Prendor Mussolini's action in relinquishing H<»ven of his cabinet posts was Interpreted here today as a proof that fascism was more strongly intrenched in Italian politics than ever before. Contrary to belief in some quarters that Musolinl may have distributed the portfolios through political necessity, well informed experts here held that the reorganization of the government was U sign of a distinct tightening of the Mussolini dictatorship. It was said to be a mere distribution of duties to other trusted members of the fascist party, who will be responsible to the head of their government for every important act. While theoretrically responsible to the chown, the new ministers, most of whom had acted as undersecretaries to Mussolini when he held the chief posts, will he responsible actually to 11 Duce himself and will be retained in their posts only so long as they meet the complete approval of the premier. i ; o OBITUARY Joseph Dayton Winans, was born in St. Mary's township, Adams county, January 27. 1858, and departed this life, at his home near Pleasant Mills, Indiana, at the age of 71 years, 7 months and 1 day.
