Senator Janies Watson is quite a joker. Invited to attend the drought meeting at Washington he wired regrets saying he was on his way to Canada "where there is no drought,” and of course the president understood. If they are not careful over at Marion they will fool around and get some one in trouble for taking part in or permitting the lynching to occur there last week and we will be surprised if some of those who took part do not spend a good many nights worrying before its all over. Politics is starting to warm up a little as the atmosphere cools off and in a month or so we ought to be going along pretty well with the job of selecting those who will govern us one way and another the next couple of years and don't forget its always important. The boys are busy these days with plans for the annual street fair and have arranged a program that will keep you busy the entire week. You will enjoy the features, the exhibits, the midway and the parades. Get ready. Its going to be good. Endurance records of one kind and another are becoming so common that most folks don't even read the stories over to see whether they have been sitting on flag poles, in trees or up in the air. After all what a silly joke most of it is. Read the advertisements. This is the age when it pays you well. The merchants who invite you to deal, with them by advertising are after all those who keep up with the times in every way and can sell you the best goods for the least money because of added volume. The battle scene of the underworld seems to have shifted from Chicago to the lake regions of Minnesota and Wisconsin where the battle goes right on during the summer. The disgrace to the nation is that we stand for it and seem to sit back with the idea that the way to stop it is to let them shoot it out. When we think we are having a hard fight we pep up by reading over again the story of Senator Gore, of Oklahoma, and his successful battle against odds. Though

If he can do it, so ought the rest of us. An educational and an entertaining two days is that planned by Clifton Striker, county school superintendent, for the teachers annual institute to be held in this city the 26th and 27th. Four high grade lecturers and speakers, including Gerald Bush, assistant state superintendent have been secured and every hour should prove enjoyable and helpful. George Norris, who left the republican party two years ago and campaigned for Alfred E. Smith because he had no faith in the republican attitude on the farm relief question, has been nominated for senator in Nebraska and will probably win, not because he is a republican but because he is opposed to the present administration in Washington, which won't make the president particularly happy, we should guess. The summer class of the auction school is a lively bunch and the sales each evening are attracting large crowds. The boys are progressing nicely and are all more than delighted with the training they are receiving and the treatment from Decatur folks. These men come from every section of the country and we hope they carry away with them impressions that t hey have been in a real community. The Fraternal Order of Eagles adopted a resolution at their national convention which is being held in San Francisco this week, demanding the establishment of a federal commission to evolve a system whereby wide-spread unemployment shall be eliminated from the economic life of the nation. That sounds fine and if it can be accomplished in any practical manner will be the solving of a problem that has bothered more less since time began but its much easier to demand than to execute. Adams county farms will be worth considerable more this time next year than now, whether you believe it or not. When things are down it looks like there is no bottom but wnen the market starts upgrade look out and it is going to start soon. The drouth will make a shortage on most every kind of product raised in this part of the country and with a demand will require several years to make up, land values cannot help but rise. If you are real wise you will invest in an Adams county farm as soon as you can find one to suti you and arrange to finance

SUBMARINE IS MADE READY FOR POLAR VOYAGE Sir Hubert Wilkins Will Attempt to Navigate Below Ice Cap By T. J. O'Connell (United Press Staff Correspondent Philadelphia, Aug. 15 —(UP) — Floating demurely beside Dewey's historic flagship Olympia In the black channel of the Navy yard here is a little red sunmarine that may become one of the most historic crafts in the world within the next two years. The submarine is the 0-12 which soon will be converted into the Nautilus, after Jules Berne's brainchild Captain Sir George Hubert Wilkins. internationally famous Australian Arctic explorer, is having the little submarine remodeled with the idea of making the dream of sea-faring men for centuries come true. He plans to cruise in the Nautilus from the eastern to the western hemisphere, under the polar ice cap. Hundreds of daring seamen of different nations have for centuriei attempted to force the Northwest Passage. All have failed. Most of

them lost their lives, and literally hundreds of vessels have been crushed to matchwood by the Arctic | icefloes while attempting the pas- | sage. Sir George, who was the first ' to fly from one hemisphere to the ' other via the North Pole, already 1 has begun the preliminary work of remodeling the submarine. As lie I is a British subject he had to lease the D-12 through the American fine, of Danenhower and Lake for the nominal rental of one dollar a year Cost of remodeling the vessel .will approximate $150,000. He expects , to start his expedition early next . summer, probably in May. Cooperating enthusiastically with * Sir George in his daring project is 5 Simon Ixike veteran inventor and s manufacturer of submarines and , deep-sea diving devices. Lake him- ; self is anxious to make the cruise t but his advanced age—he is past 60—bars him. His partner. Sloan 1 Danenhower, however will be mas- . ter of the Nautilus when she dives ] off the Polar Ice cap and slides be- - neath it. The Nautilus will be fitted with a ; toboggan-like super-structure which , will enable it to slide along beneath f the underside of the ice cap under ; its own power. Pneumatic drills - which will be mounted in the head of the telescoping conning tower r will be capable of penetrating 13 feet of ice. Sir George explained. Ex f plosives will also be carried along 3 for the purpose of breaking the ice t at intervals be said during his ref cent visit here. _

"But we may not have to use thei ice-breaking device n great deal" he said. "Photographs taken by Admin al Rh hard E. Byrd and by the An. undsen evpedltion indicate that the ice cap is not a solid one. Cracks in the ice and patches of clear water are shown. "Surface ships could not make it, however, and I am confident that the submarine is the best possible craft to use." Sir George said that preliminary testa of the Nautilus will be held off the Maine coast next winter. By summer the expedition will be ready for the trip from Spitzbergen to free water In the Bering Sea. near Cape Lisbon on the Ciberian side. The explorer expeats the trip to require about 60 days, including a long stop at the Pole itself for scientific observations. Although the cruise will be approximately 2.100 miles, the length of ills flight with the late Carl Ben Eielson from Point Barrow to Spitsbergen, the Nautilus will be fuelled for 7,000 miles. Provisions for a one year stay in the Arctic will be carred. o— Charles Rhinehart and son Bobby of Elkhart and Mrs. Bertha Sheets of this city have returned home from a te;i days motor trip through the hills of Ohio. They visited at Dayton. Columbus, Breeman, Lan- . aster and Logan, Ohio, and visited many interesting places, including the Old Mau's Cave, near Logan, the Rockhouse and the Ohio Caverns at West Liberty.
