New York Charter Member The Indiana League of Home Dailies A RIGHTEOUS WAR* Ttday, November 11, is enshrined in the hearts of people as Arm-, istice Day. Gratitude rises from! millions of hearts in memory of the cessation of the most terrible war ' tn history. Without doubt these; f millions In lieve that war is wrong; j, they hope there will never be an-:

other war of real importance. But this situation does not mean that fighting is done. There is a terrible struggle going forward which should enlist th? fighting strength of every citizen of Indiana, America, and other nations. That is the world wide struggle to eliminate tuberculosis and kindred diseases from the list of potent entmjes of mankind. Perhaps on thir peaceful Armistice Day, a dedication of humanity's strength to war upon such plagues as tuberculosis would be the most fitting memorial that might be undertak on. As in that ether terrible war, there are allies standing staunchly at the shoulder of us here in America ready to go forward with us against the common eusmy. These allies already organized and functioning successfully, are the tuberculosis associations—l,4oo of them in the United States, one in each county in Indiana. They are fighting our fight against the white plaugue. But they call to us once each year to help th- m hold their trenches. They ask us to finance this war by the simple and noncost ly method of buying a few dollars worth of Tuberculosis Christmas Seals during the month of December. These seals represent in truth the Health Liberty Bends that must finance this common effort against disease in 1931. The tuberculosis associations are winning the war —at least they are being tremendously successful with such weapons as the steady educational campaign for right living, the development cf clinics, sanatoria, fresh air schools, child nutritii n programs, better nursing facilities. These associations are keeping the death rate from the

disease steadily declining. Enemy ground is being won. Right here at home in Indiana, for example, the death rate from tuberculosis has been more than cut in half in less than twenty years of fighting ' by the ninety-two county assocla- ■ tions under the sponsorship of the Indiana Tuberculosis Association. In 1915, 4,021 Hoosiers died from tuberculosis while in 1929 only 2,331 died. The ammunition for the weapons of the tuberculosis associations ure the Christmas Seals, which will be sold to each of us from Thanksgiving Day until Christmas at one dollar a hundred. There can be no Armistice in this Health War. There will be a delay of thirty days in issuing the farmer payroll for beets by the Holland-St. Louis Sugar Company. This will be an inconvenience to a number but can not be helped as the company is under supervision of the United States court and due to the fact ' that the beets have come in more : rapidly than they could be maunl factored into sugar, the money I with which to meet the required i payments will be held up a short i time. Assurance from the court | that the entire amount will be met December ,15th can be depended

upon we feel sure. Get your dollar ready for the R?d Cross. The drive will be made next , Sunday and continue until the quoto has been reached. There will be need for the great organ- i fzation during the coming year for disasters during this time of de- . pression will mean more suffering i than in ordinary times. Even if you have to save some where else ’ it will be to your advantage and ■ your ever lasting credit to pay your membership in the Red Cross. Lawrence E. Archbold has made | good as county agricultural agent and his re-election yesterday for a I period of two years is but one way of expressing it. He has given his , full time and has. we are sure, ' I been of great assistance to many I farmers of the county. He has a ( larger pre gram for the next two years and with the assistance of those interested will be able to i make a splendid showing. i One more jump nearer the new ! federal building and we'll tell the , (world there are a lot of them in this getting it. The government has ordered the lot cleared of build- , ings by January 20th, which probably means that real work of con- ( struction will start in the spring, unless some one throws a plug in f the machinery some where down the line. Senator Heflin is demanding an | investigation of die Alabama elec- ’ tion in which he met defeat a week ago, charging "skullduggery”, I whatever that is. He probably 1 I i won’t get far either in or out of , the senate, for he has lost his I standing both places. = I The bandits just den t care what i, they hold up. During the past fewdays they have raided theaters, < banks, filling stations, interurban offices, stores and hotels and if there is any place overlooked by ' them we wouldn't know what it would be. * i Santa Claus is willing to come to Decatur with his reindeers if the boys and girls of this community really want to 3ee them. He will reach here if an invitation is sent him at once, the latter part of this month. WJiat do you say? The weather was. nice Sunday and consequently the number of automobile accidents increased. Clear skies, warm weather and then watch out for a long list of casualties. for Chl-vhet.-U-r* IHamond Br*nd Bill* in Bed and told( O ) metallic boxes, sealed with Blue \f/ 1 Ribbon.

The People’s Voice This column for the use of our readers who wish to make suggestions for the general good or discuss questions of interest. “Tease sign your name to show authenticity.

It means we have lost in a "ace. Any one with ability to make the primary race, knows that the final race is decided In November, that he and his opponent cannot each win. One of them must lose, and all the world loves a good loeer, and a poor sport is held in contempt. Alfred E. Smith is universally admired for being a good sport. He was truly a good loser. It revealed a bigness in his make up that could not be mistaken. A defeated candidate who holds malice in his heart is simply saying to the public you voted right. A man who is not big enough to take defeat isn't big enough to have filled the office had he been elected. (Signed) An Observer on the Side Lines. o CHILDREN INVITE SANTA CLAUS TO VISIT DECATUR (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE) this community and it is believed that an acceptance from him will be received by Wednesday morning. Dozens of inviitatiions from children were sent to the Daily Democrat, asking that Santa visit Decatur on his good-will trip. It was clearly shown from the sentiment expressed by the children that they wanted to see Santa and hi’s refndeer and the Daily Democrat is confident that he will accept. If Santa accepts the invitation arrangements will be made to entertain him all day. Besides his reindeer he travels with a couple of little Eskimos and an Indian guide and on his visit here the children will be given the opportunity to see his companions. As soon as word is received from Santa the Daily Democrat will herald the fact to the commun-

ity anti from then on the children can check off the days until the day comes for Santa’s visit here. Someone just called in and said, “Include In your invitation to Santa that Mom and Pop and the grown ups want to see Santa and his reindeer.” Sure jve do. All of us want to see Santa. ■ o GENEVA NEWS Mrs. David Teeple has returned to her home In Bellfountain? Ohio, 'after spending several days here with Mr. and Mis. William Heeter.
