Well we are about ready for two t or three hitches of Indian summer, 1 each to continue two or three months. ' Get out your “heavies” and if you 1 cant find those old worn out ones remember that many stores here carry the finest quality, right prices. • every thing guaranteed. ——l Lets have a fall trade week, show- 1 ing new goods, styles and with any < features that will show our interest t in the people of the community. How i about a corn and beet show with a I “Dollar half week." I A contest “nut" out in California t drank 102 cups of black coffee, it is t broadcast. If there is any thing in ; the old belief that coffee keeps one , awake that bird will not have to ; watch his lights. He will be wide t awake when Gabriel toots his horn. ( t Have you taken out your drivers license? The secretary of state has i fixed October Ist as the deadline. AL ( ter that time you drive at your own _ risk If you do so without your license , with you. State police have already ( been ordered to check you up, so don't L take chances. I 1 Remember that to drive your auto1 mobile past a school hack while children are being taken on or discharged from the bus. is a violation of the laws of Indiana, subjecting you to severe punishment. Police have been instructed by the state officials to arrest sufficient violators to call at'tention to the law. Be careful. Remember Bosco. the snake-eater, •who for years traveled over the country from Maine to California “eating -'em alive” and “em" means not only snakes but mice, beer hotties, steel filings and any thing he could get his hands on? Recently he was taken i to a hospital in Buffalo where physic- 1 tans declared he had ruined his stom- , ach with moonshine. It stood all the “hard stuff’’ b Not much interest is sting manifested in the tariff bill now pending before the United States senate. We are all apparently too busy with other things and the reports from the Capitol are the country is not the least excited. Go ahead and hang yourselves. The public don’t squeal about such things until they feel them but then they bawl loud and long. After the HM.OOtt.WW bill becomes a law and the tariff begin to pinch, listen and decide for yourself whether or , not there is interest. The recent street fair produced much good will towards ail those who managed it and the merchants ot Decatur who supported it financially. We have heard handreds of compliments. It occurs to us that this should be followed up with a fall trading week, with any special attractions of merit or with a corn and beet show in connection. The results ought to be worth the effort. Keeping things moving and keeping visit-] ors here talking favorably about us is the greatest thing the community can do. The worst situation as respect forest fires for ten years was reported a short time ago in Oregon, and as a result twenty-two national forest reserves in Oregon and' Washington
TODAY’S CHUCKLE Cleveland. O —(UP) —Walter A. Dyson was the beneficiary ot a onecent verdict here in a suit for >SOOO against Mrs. Elda S. Emerson, whom he charged with falsely accusing him of stealing a blanket from her home where he was a roomer. were closed, until the first big rain. Most of the state of Oregon has been covered by a pall of smoke, and homes, sawmills, etc., have been endangered. The loss of timber growth by forest fires has been one of the great tragedies of American waste. It is a peril that is very hard to cope with, since in lonely forest regions a fire may get a big start before it is discovered by anyone who can do anything about It. People who start camp fires in woodlands or who throw away matches and cigarette ends there, without making absolutely sure that every spark is extinguished, must be as much of a peril and source of loss as the folks who set buildings afire for fraudulent purposes. — The Newcastle Courier. = - According to gossip trickling out of New York the faithful friends of former Gov. Al Smith are planning to get him into the senate. They want to keep him in the public eye for whatever it may be worth some time in the future. There are two Democratic senators now from New York, and both love their jobs, but away has been found to fix all that up—so the fixers think. The scheme involves the retirement of Senator Copeland to take charge of the proposed City Sanitation Commission to be voted on in the municipal election. The senator being a doctor the thing would be right in his line, and the salary, of course, could be made more attractive than a senator's. And then the senator’s sease of public dujy would be appealed to. These planners think that Smith would welcome 1 a berth in the senate, and that he would further distinguish himself there. All this was cooked up while ; Senator Sopeland was in Europe, and it may take on a new appearance when he is consulted. Copeland is very fond of his job as senator, and his re-election last fall showed him rather popular with his constituents. In fact the doctor-senator is said to be looking toward something higher than the senate. —The Pathfinder. — o — MODERN ETIQUETTE By ROBERTA LEE Q.
