Tlie old thermometer is boiling these days chasing the mercury up to the 95 mark which ought to be ’ enough to please the coolest stock of, corn in the county.

Several accidents have been reported lately due to the fact that cars have collided with other machines parked along the streets without lights. Seems as though it would be but little trouble to get the cars off the traveled thoroughfares for over night parking. More than 20,000 Rotarians are spreading their gospel of good will in Chicago this week and it ought to help. They are a great bunch of men and we like them and the other similar clubs because they are good boosters, first, last and always. Read the merchants announcements this week. They will be worth your time and you may depend upon them. The stores here are filled with attractive merchandise and the effort to make this a big trade week should be of more than passing interest to every buyer. Nelson Rockefeller, a son of John D„ Jr., married Miss Mary Hunter of Philadelphia yesterday and now Nels, who has won a reputation while in college of living cheaply, may as well make up his mind that used cars and cheap living quarters are passe. The wedding trip to start with will be a little trip around the world, after which the young man will go to work in dad's office. Trying to take a rap at R. Earl Peters, democratic state chairman, tlie Fort Wayne News-Sentinel cartoonist pictures the G. O. P. elephant sitting in a boat playing a uke and singing “The moonlights’ fair along the Wabash,” and declaiing that Earl's croaks will soon “peter out” Perhaps so, but we doubt it for added to the chairman's "croaks” will come a million more in the form of votes next November. The mooonlight is fair along the Wabash but they can’t be used in paying bills or taxes or lost values. Depositors of the Old Adams County Bank will be paid in full. That was signified when without a dissenting vote yesterday afternoon the stockholders agreed to meet a 100% assessment. More than that we believe the bank will soon reopen for business with every bad account charged off and with sufficient funds on hand to meet every demand. This will require effort and some cooperation from the public but we believe that the plans discussed will convince every one of the sincerity of purpose of the stockholders and officials of the bank. It has never been our pleasure to attend a more earnest or harmonious session than this one and we feel we can assure the public of brighter days ahead and soon. o * twenty Years AGO TODAY i From the Daily Democrat File ■ I * « June 24 —Eight graduate from St Joseph schools.

It has bee.n in possession of the Mackintoshs for nearly 600 years, and has seen many bloody clan fueds. At one time it housed Bonnie Prince Charlie, the pretender to the Scottish throne, and the present Mackintosh still has in his possession Prince Charlie's blue bonnet, and the table from which he dined on the eve of tlie battle of Culloden.
