If tlie stock market doesn’t quit breaking every few days some of us are going to believe it was about half rotten to start with. As the Toledo Blade says, "It doesn't make much difference what animal you sprang from, its what — kind.of an animal you are now that counts.” R&idents in Logansport and KofcjJmo and between don't want th\4 traction line taken up as petitioned for but unless there is sufficient income to meet expenses who is going to put it up? Watch the Daily Democrat this week for announcements that should tie of interest to every reader. We assure you they will meet your approval if you are looking for bargains. Yes, we have some good sized luuWems to solve, but we have, nuUaed that our people function best when they have some thing real to do and we would bet any thing we do it now. Dollar days Thursday and Friday and specials on Saturday. That's the stuff boys, boost along and you will be surprised at how much better conditions are generally than you have been thinking them. This is the longest day in the year with more than fifteen hours of daylight out of the twenty-four and summer is now here, having arrived on schedule at 10:54, Saturday evening, central daylight saving time. It cost $22,000 to clean the New York streets after the Byrd celebration and no one knows how much it had cost to dirty them. Looks as though a little old fashioned economy along some lines might help reduce taxes. Commander Byrd seems to have discovered all the poles so the government might send him out to locate prosperity, normalcy, farm relief and a few other things that seem to have gotten themselves lost. There is a lot of broadcasting from Washington that the farmer is being taken care of but in the meantime wheat has dropped to ninety cents right at harvest time. You can believe ’em if you want to, we don't. There seems to be a lot of maniacs lose over the country and they are doing every thing from practising target to throwing the family over the cliffls but of course these unusual things have to occur or there would be little new news to givo you. Tell your friends to come in for the big trade days this week. Decatur merchants will go the limit to please you and to sell you goods at the lowest price possible. We

We stood on a downtown corner at 10:30 o'clock Saturday evening and watched the throng and thats what it was even at that hour. Every street was filled with parked cars and there was a stream so continual that one had to watch his chance to cross the street. This

! is a good town and thats all there is to It. The rest of it will work out in due time. Taxing laws should be changed in Indiana and the democrats favor that In their platform, which doesn't mean a new constitution by any manner of means. A conIvention to change the basic laws of the state would result in great expense and perhaps many worse sections than that of the present. We should do specific things and the most important one is the equalization of the tax burden. W. A. Klepper of the Cloverleaf Creameries, Inc., backed up by the Kraft-Phenix Cheese Company, pledges all his efforts to aid in the restoration of confidence and to hasten a reconstructed bank structure. He declares that what is needed “right now at this moment is evidences of good will, forbearance and cooperation.” Thats exactly right. We have work to do. Lets do it promptly, efficiently and right. Os course the street fair and agricultural show ought to be given as announced. Every thing will be going nicely by then and any ■way this is no time to stop things planned. The people need relaxation and they will enjoy looking the show over and meeting old friends. The fair last fall was one of the best of its kind ever given around here and the Legion boys hope to make this one better than that. Get right back of them and tell them yes when they ask you what you think about it. Tlie mid-summer meeting of the Indiana Democratic Editorial Asociation at Bedford was a most enjoyable and in every way successful session and of course we are proud of any part that Dick, as president, had in it. The editors and their friends who attended were full of genuine enthusiasm and hopes for a victory that will turn the government in this state largely over to new hands! We feel sure you can’t be any worse off than you have been the past dozen years and we have every reason to believe conditions along some lines at least can be greatly improved. o ♦ ft Modern Etiquette | By ROBERTA LEE ♦- (UJ»> ♦ Q.
