To further lower electric power and n light rates. f To continue the installation of orna- n mental street lights. <x Continued effort for further reduc- a tion in insurance rates. I A lower tax rate. * An honest, conscientious, business r administration. These are solid planks, which mean a continued growth of the city with an administration carefully and ecou- f omically keeping pace with progress, ft Don't be foolish enough to be side- I tracked by some petty argument. Its f important that we go steadily on. j Perhaps others can do as well but < with the candidates on the democratic ticket here you are taking no chances. They will advance the community. t — ' c The city of Decatur has paid off a $54,919.15 of indebtedness the past a seven years and has the money on f hapds to meet the $50,000 worth cf bonds which will be due year afte r next. That has been done, we ask * you to remember, without issuance of | ( bonds, without borrowing money and ■ in the meantime we have spent considerable money to equip the city I plant, install lights, improve the I parks, build coal silos, pay the city’s . share for new streets and otherwise. AND WITH A DECREASE IN THE CITY TAX RATE. Every one who understands the situation ought to be * a genuine booster for such an administration and we are sure the coming election will reflect the fact that Decatur citizens appreciate real service such as has been given. Ornamental lights will be placed on Eighth, Seventh and First streets next year if plans of the present committee can be carried out and they will be if the democratic ticket is elected and if the money is available the lights will be placed ou Tenth street. The following year Ninth and Mercer will be lit up. If you want lights and reside on a street where they haven’t them, you can receive them in your turn by filing a petition properly prepared and signed by a majority of the property owners. Why change? Dr. Mangold, democratic city ehairman says thats the reply received from most of the inquiries and that's right. Why change, when a city administration has made such a record as that of the recent administrations? During the past four years you have seen many things done for the benefit of the people and the same officials can continue their program more successfully than any one else. If you appreciate honest endeavor, you should support the city democratic ticket this year. The crop this year in Indiana is far
TODAY’S CHUCKLE Billerica, Mass., — (UP)—For 26 years the Rev. J. Harold Dale has acted as pastor of the Congregational church here. Through oversight he was not formally installed until recently. below normal, the only yields which have shown an increase according to Purdue estimates are tobacco and hay and that's such a small part of farm production in this state that it doesn't help much. Corn is off about fifteen per cent from last year which was below normal and oats, wheat and other crops are off considerably more. Increased production however is shown in dairy and poultry lines which in many instances is sufficient to overcome the losses. In this country we make much ado about the fact that sugar beet farmers and sugar factory operators are trying to secure a tariff which will protect them, but in Germany, Poland, and Hungary the duties are five dollars per 100 kilogram on raw sugar. Great Britain and Canada grant preferential treatment to sugar made in the empire and those countries aie not high tariff nations either. The reason you don't get it here is because the bosses are not for you and the sooner you find it out and act accordingly the better it will be. Some idea of the great industrial change in this country may be had by a glance at the statstics recently made public. A few years ago but few' men were engaged in the automobile or oil business. Now there are forty million men either making automobiles or keeping them operating, one way or another. That means that one out of every eight men you meet, is thus engaged. Its a huge business sure enough. The wheels at the Decatur sugar factory will start next Monday, this being the eighteenth consecutive run. We believe whole heartedly in this great industry and we hope sufficient interest is manifested to assure its continuation indefinitely. The new Martin baby automobile, to sell for S2OO. will seat two persons or six wild Indians on their way to a football game and you will probably see them hanging around on fence posts extensively. o Will Zwiek of the Zwick furniture company is on the sick list. STOMACH TROUBLE IS QUICKLY ROUTED BY NEWKONJOLA Constipation And Neuritis Also Fall Ready Victims To New Medicine |Kr W Cl . 7 ■K ISSife MR. ELMER WEAVER “For the last several years I had suffered from a complication of ailments that affected my stomach and bowels.” said Mr. Elmer Weaver, Bennetts Swith, Indiana. "Suffering followed every meal. I suffered from headaches and back aches, and my whole body seemed to be a mass of ache® and pains. Neuritis finally developed. and I' wasn’t able to get the slightest relief. "When I heard of Konjola I made up my mind to give it a chance. My stomach was corrected, constipation was relieved and my bowels regulated. I gained in weight and strength, and began to feel like my old self. I I enjoy my meals, sleep well, and feel las good as I ever did. I hope that . my experience will help others to find relief from their pain and misery.’’ Konjola is sold in Decatur at Smith Yager & Falk's drug store, and bj all .the best druggists in all towns I throughout this entire section.

Modern Mothers Help Create New Slogan Millions More Each Year Turn To Famous External Method of Treating Colds Each year more and more mothers turn to Vicks Vapoßub. the modern external treatment for colds, because it is just rubbed on and cannot ; upset children's stomachs, as “dosing” is so apt to do. Originally designed and first used largely for children's colds, this better external method gradually spread as one enthusiastic mother told another. Years of actual use also proved it equally effective for the colds of grown-ups. Today the whole trend of medical practice is away from needless “dosing” and Vicks—a household word in America—is used in more than 60 countries abroad. The ever-growing demand for Vicks is shown in its familiar slogan, expressing the number of jars used yearly. First announced when Vicks reached “17 Million Jars Yearly”—later raised to “21 Million”—the figures are again being changed, as there are now “Over 26 Million jars Used Yearly.”
