The ‘ National and Columbia broadcasting systems are making a liberal donation to {he two major poi trcal campaign committees by giving free use of their extensive chains for political speeches. It is estimated that the cost if the committees had to pay for it would be not le.-s than $200,000 and thats >m tiring this year when campaign contributions are rather difficult. They admit now that the drought tliis year just about put the corn borer out of business. Thats good although from the looks of the corn here, the old bug wasn’t doing so much damage any way. We were told some years ago when the fight started that within five years, there-would be no corn in this territory but h>re we come along with one of the best crops in history. So thats that. It sure looks good' to see the Leets being trucked in and they are some beets, the finest quality and siz brought in to the Decatur trill in many years. The run at the factory should be a long one and we are hoping the owners find some way to market their product at a profit that will make every one happy: Its a fine institution and means much to this community. •<» w LOOK AROUND YOUR HOMEthrough other peoples glasses See if the wails, woodwork and furniture are as you want your Quests to see them.

That day beer sales at the Case de la Paix jumped from / 183 litres the day previous to t 764 litres. I .; • r 11 - The Post Master General has refused the request of certain bus- • Iness concerns that the post office ) accept unaddressed matter to be j delivered to all boxholders and to > people on delivery routes. The law ’ does not authorize such a practice, I Mr. Brown says, and it would open the way to an avalanche of printed matter and maybe a demoralization of the service. Most citisens ( will be glad that they have escaped being buried in circulars. 1 Dore B. Erwin, democratic candidate for judge, presided at last night's political meeting at the court room and did the job splenI clidly as he has for many years ' I past. He has acted as chairman at the openers here for something like a quarter of a century and then has taken his place in the ranks of the fighting army for democracy. He is able and a student of economy and his addresses are always worth hearing and thinking over. Hereafter a student at the University of Wisconsin who barely makes a passing grade at the end of two years will not be permitted to go on. By that time his teacher will know, if he is normally intelligent, whether it is worth while for him to go on through college work. If he really must give the best part of his time to wearing a coonskin coat and playing games, he can do it somewhere else and be of less hindrance to those few l.ut worthy others who think school is a place for study, university authorities believe.—Mid-West Review. Claude Ball, democratic candidate for congress in this district is making-a vigorous campaign and has an even break to win. He addiessed the voters here last night, stressing the passage of a billionlollar tariff bill by congress in answer to a demand for relief from high taxes and expensive living. Mr. Bill will be the principal speaker at the Geneva meeting this ; month and every one interested in the political questions of the day, , should hear him. Mr. Ball is a splendid citizen and a high grade , gentleman in every respect and , would represent the district to your complete satisfaction, we feel sure. There have been 24 business depressions in the last 75 years, reports the Hoover committee on , economic changes. They averaged , 39 months from one peak of bus- • in ss activity to the next, the de- , i pression coming in between. The , tendency is to more and shorter I cycles instead of fewer. The "up" ; period tends to last longer and the , "down" period to be shorter. The [average length of recent depressj ions has been less than years, and less severe than formerly, all r of which is cheerful and interesting. The present depression has been the most severe since 1921. i but generally violents ups and downs do not succeed each other. o BARGAINS:— Bargains In Living Room, Dining Room suits, mattresses and rugs.

PARIS DEFENSE DEMANDED OUT OFTARDIEUFUND French Fall Out Over Method of Protection For Nation By John White United Press Staff Correspondent Paris, Oct 2—(UP)— Hardly had the Tardteu government pushed over its relentless program of national defense when Frenchmen began to fall out over various forms of protection for which the money might best be spent. Otiginally Intended for frontier fort! flcat Jons from Basle to the English Channel on the one hand, and a bolstering of the navy from Villefrance to Dunkerque on the other, the program never was intended for specific protection of the capital for example, and it is precisely here that the alarmists find a weakness in the Tardieu armour. Pointing out that the next war will be fought with airplanes capable of destroying burning, poisoning. gassing infecting whole cities in a single raid, “Paris-Soir" calls for a considerable diversion of funds to meet this peril, or at least anticipate it intelligently. "The chief and foremost need,” that paper insists, ”is for a system of underground refuges in Paris. , Lille, Lyons, Bordeaux and other congested centers of population. Nor will it suffice to build such a system of suburbanean abris, tor they must be piped for fresh water, arranged to permit sleeping and carrying on of the normal business routine for perhaps weeks at a time. They must be protected against natural moisture on the one hand and poison gasses and infectuom germ agencies on the other. They must in short, be cities withintiUes.” Any nation could, as the Communist “L’Humanite’’ so delights in pointing oufspend a hundred billion for defense and still get licked. o Raps Wife Beater South Bend.

An Intelligent Plan V Is ESSENTIAL 1 It may not be possible for a man to carry as much Insurance as he would R like or ought to have, but there is no reason why his Insurance should K not be arranged upon an intelligent plan extended as fast as possible. The following is suggested as a good resolution for the average man to adopt:— V I_The property I leave must be free from debt. I must not leave behind me the perils of a forced sale. 2— For my family I must provide a living income. They must not suffer hardship gg even if my income ceases. 3— My children must be educated. They shall not be deprived of the.r opportunities Ik in life because of anything happening to me. 4— For myself, I must accumulate an estate. I owe it to my own life to be financially free from dependency in old age. A Policy in K New York Life Insurance Col > ■ Will Start YOU jn the Program. H Let us talk it over with you.
