Enjoy the next few weeks for after another month the big outdoors will not be nearly to attractive. It takes but a moment to stop your car when passing a school hack or to slow down when approaching a school zone, but it will take years to get over a serious accident. One Indiana college has more than three hundred students in the journalistic classes, assuring you of a supply of writers during the next few years. Decatur people are happy to hear from J. J. Helm, former Decatur man, now hotel manager in Miami, Florida, that the damage there was slight. Mr. Helm has gone through several of the severe Florida hurricanes and knows a real "blow” when he hears or sees it. ■ The city plant is in splendid condition in its new home and best of all the improvements have been paid for without the issuance of bonds or the borrowing of funds. Splendid management and careful watching has made this possible. There is no reason why the same officials can not keep it going that way. The American Legion boys are having a great old time in Louisville this week, the occasion being the national convention which now takes the place of those G. A. R. meetings of a few years ago. There is entertainment, a reunion of thousands of the boys from every part of the country, a lot of good times and some serious business sessions. The democrats are busy with an organization which if made sufflcently effective will guarantee a victory in November. Elections are lost by them here when they fail to get out the vote. Interest must be aroused and sufficient workers for election day to assure that. With the record made by George Krick and his council the past four years, that should be easy. One business that continues to grow steadily in this country is lite insurance and that's a very good sign. Protecting ones family against the wants of life is not only a duty but should be a pleasure to every man who is earning money these days. Don't make it a burden but lite insurance in a good company is after all a safer investment than most any we know of. The Adams County Witness now proposes to “oust Nathan Nelson from office," the specific charge against him being that he recommended a suspension of the penal farm sentence in the McClure case. By the same token every prosecuting attorney and police judge in the state could be removed but that might not please the Witness. They are trying to "fan” up some trouble among the democrats in Adams county more than anything else. Don’t let them "kid” you. We welcome the expression of opinions in the columns of this paper. That does not mean that we agree with the writers or slipport theta ouv the public has the right to use Its newspaper to express themselves on questions of general interest. The

Uffendale did not discover the loss until he attempted to dig up his potatoes. daily paper has become a public utility and the "People's Voice" gives you the opportunity to give your expressions to the public. Remember however that every article sent In must be signed by you, though we will not publish the name unless you so desire. We are making every effort to give our readers the best possible delivery service on the paper each evening, to see that the boys are courteous and careful and prompt. We will appreciate your cooperation and hope you will keep in touch with this office. The job is not an easy one, especially during the months now coming, so be as considerate as possible. The paper should be at every home in Decatur
within an hour after it is off the press, which is usually by 4:30 and we will work until that policy is carried out. Activities in the city campaign will open this week with meetings of the candidates, city committee and workers. The election is but five weeks away and these wi|l be rather busy ones for the candidates. Definite plans will be announced by the democrats within a few days and the closing month will be devoted to efforts to call attention of the voters to the splendid record made during the past foru years. No administration in the city's history has proven of more value. The progress has been steady and continuous and the city is in every way in the best condition ever enjoyed here. It costs a pile of money to pick the champion heavyweight fighter of America and we feel sure its not worth it. For a year now they have been holding elimination contests and the mrill hunters, curiosity seekers, suckers, have paid several million dollars. Last week a crowd gave up $300,000 too see Jack Sharkey take a decision over Tom Loughran in three rounds. A good fighter could lick either of them in one round, but that's not the game. These two will be matched again and Loughran will probably win on a fluke or some other way and then they will play off the tie. So far as real sport goes, it looks like a good joke.
