Think of the fellow who has a flat tire on a dusty road these days. Marion, Ohio, felt an earthquake and just a few days before Lima reported a similar disturbance. Perhaps some of those old Buckeye towns need a little shaking up.

They will reopen the 28th and we iiope that in the meantime so many orders will come in that they will Tfave to add a night force and burry up plans for larger quarters.

They say that if efforts had been made tins time last year to have kept stocks from soaring to fake values, far higher than they ever were or ever will be worth, the big December smash would not have occurred and we would still be enjoying fair prosperity. Fat m relief is having a tough first year with the prices of crops the lowest in seventeen years. Mr. Coolidge is smiling up his sleeve and saying indirectly, "1 told you so,” and the wise ones , are agreeing with him.

Senator Watson made his speech in defense of the administration and every thing considered it was an excellent one and old Jim can make them. He doesn't have to have much' to build on and he hasn’t in this case. We claim it takes a real political optimist to make a defense speech and to urge support for the tariff and every thing else and to make it so convincingly that he makes the public believe he means it. Decatur can and will give a great street fair, said Paul Graham, the general chairman. Check and double check. Tliats the kind of spirit and we hope every body, big and little, young and old, fat and slim, here and away from home, gets back of the Legion a hundred per cent and proceed to show the world that old Decatur and Adams county refuses to be licked by any little slap from old man adversity and that we can smile and step along. Subscribe to the fund, help titj committees, do your part and be optimistic. Its the best advertisement we can have. Indiana is so far from the seaboard that many Hoosiers lose sight of the importance of the state’s export trade. Indiana ranks fifteenth among the states in the volume of its exports. It was ninth last year in percentage of increase of trade with foreign nations. Our output in 1928 was a little more than $60,000,000 and last year it was in excess of $75,000,000. The goods sent abroad from Indiana last year were worth approximately $25 for every person in the state. The importance of anything that brings $25 per capita into Indiana in a year can not be looked on lightly as a factor in our prosperity. The value of the state's exports was about three-fourths that of the farm value of corn in an average year and equal to the combined values of the state's wheat and oats. —Indianapolis Star. o * *twentyyears AGO TODAY | From the Daily Democrat File (

Play / a new role YOU can’t be yourself many years at a stretch, without being somebody new! All at once, you will be using different cosmetics, eating different foods, setting your table differently, rearranging your surroundings, readjusting your whole scheme of life. Advertisements lead you to do this — even when you are least aware. They announce the new discoveries. Others try them. You try them. Os a sudden, you’ve changed! The old is at once too out-of-date. It is too slow in this age of speed. Too ineffective in this age of perfection. Somewhere, in advertisements you have not read yet, are things other people are reading about that will make a change in you. Read the advertisements here today. You will discover some of the things you will want to use habitually. You might even get ahead and start using some today. o Advertisements enlighten you about the new .. and enlighten your life with their news Decatur Daily Democrat
