The largest crowd which ever attended the inauguration of state officials filled the corridors of the state capitol at Indianapolis yesterday. Only about one out of ten of these expecting jobs or positions came away happy but there was a general good feeling among the democrats for the victory this year is believed a harbinger of continued successes in two years. The Good Fellow club has started off., the ladies of Delta Theta l Tau making their usual twentyfive dollar contributicn. It is the hope that all other organizations will cooperate in this effort to raise a larger fund than usual for the demands this year are greater than in years. Let's make this a happy~Christmas for every poor bey find girl, even if the sacrifice is metre noticeable.

Guy Brown, chairman of the i Red Cross seal campaign, hopes to sell 100,000 seals here this year. i That's a big jeb and will require the interest of every one in the community. The Tri Kappa Sorority purchased the first flve-dollar , bond and it is hoped that every one in the county who can do so will take their share and a little more of the little seals which mean health arid happiness for so many. Its a great cause —boost it. Frank Mayr became secretary of 1 state yesterday noon and Floyd' Williamson entered upon his duties | as auditor. Both are men of abil- j ity who will serve the people of, Indiana fearlessly, faithfully and' efficiently. Many changes in the I forces were made yesterday and I within a month the personal will [ jbe entirely new, it has been anI nounced. This is of course an inI convenience for those who have I served but its the way of politics, always has been and always will be, we presume. Christmas shopping is on and the stores are having more early shopping than for some years. After all its a great thing to think about Christmas for thats a great j part of the joy of this season. The sooner yen complete your task, if thats what you think it is, of selecting the Christmas gifts, the happier you will be. The truth is if you start now and keep at it until the job is finished you will find it not a task but a delight. Look over the local stores. You will find there just what you want, heaps of it and at the most reasonable prices. The democratic members of the ' Indiana assembly held their first session yesterday, the caucus beng for the purpose of discussing proposed bills to carry out the party platform adopted in the convention last May. Usually these promises do not mean much but the democrats elected last month | propcse to offer the hills for an I income tax, registration and uniform salaries as stated in the platform up to the house and senate, and to urge the passage of these as laws. There : was also much discussion as to the organization of the house with a half dozen candidates for speaker already active. The session promises to be one of the most interesting in years. County Agent Archbold has announced the pregram for the first 'orn show to be held December Sth to 13th in the city hall building on Monroe street. There will be excellent talks by experts, guessing contests, a weed school. t-H girls program, a pageant by the Home Economic, reports on the beet and calf clubs and a lot of things in addition to the corn show. The event will be of the greatest interest to every Adams county farmer and every member of his family. Avon Burk will act as chairman and will be assisted by ,1. E. Heiman, Edward Bleekc and Albert Ewell, assuring a great week. Several Purdue instructors will will also take part in the events of the show and others will complete one of the greatest programs ever given in this section. o Card of Thanks —X We wish, in this manner to thank the friends and neighbors for their kindness; the pastors for their messages of kindness, aleo ; the choir, and the flora! offerings. . during the sickness and death of our departed wife and mother.
