To meet the deficit of this year the government will sell eight hundred million dollars worth of Us per cent, bonds on June 18th and the bonds will no doubt be grabbed off by some of those fortunate enough to have the money and desiring to place it where tor ; t he next eighteen years it will draw that return. One of the finest meetings ever I held in Decatur was that of last night when a large crowd attended the Men’s Brotherhood at tbe Evangelical church in this city.

What has happened tha a contention, considered dangerously -adit ala decade ago, is today con sldrred the soundest of sound bus liness policy’ It is surely not '.hatl the big business man has trued 1 bolshevik!

New ulsiut wages. Why shouldn't they come down? I fail to grasp Pri-sulent Hoover's Idea that wages should remain the same. The coat of living Is coming down, food, clothing, etc. If wages remain the same it would be equivalent to a raise. Farmers must do twin- the amount of work for the game nmount ot money. It looks as though It would be tn order for wag'-s to oorrespond from school teacher* on through the profes»i«ns. Even if taxes would drop it would be no more than fair. Bid anyone ever see a better network of roads than Adams | county has? Folks I have been i writing for years that our roads are tn a state of perfection that ( un hardly lie improved upon. I | do not know whether any one reads iit or not. But it seems to me that I |lt U a useless expenditure of i money to contract new roads, un-1 - less a mud road. Every year good | ■ olid roads are torn up. rebuilt and ' ; in u couple of years are as gisid ' ; but uo better than before. Where lis the benefit and who pays? The contractor benefits, also the rock companies but the tax payer foots the bill. Tax payers why not go over every road petitioned for in Alanis county and if found un-1 I necesrary as an improvement re-! 1 monstrate it out. Our county de-i ! serves to make a living it should' | not be exploited by any one. If ! farm pro-lucts remain where they j are In price, tax is way out of j reason in proportion to other things.

FAMOUS GERMAN SHIP IS FOR SALE I i Kiel, June 2. <U.R> -An instru im-nt nt’ the ex-kaiser's policy of the "mailed fist'' is for s.-le. It is the vessel "Panther’’ of the German navy. Its name went cicwn in history for “the Panther's jum M : to Agadir," in 1911. The vessel, then a full-fledged gunboat, was dispatched to the- North African port by the imperia! government as a demonstration against France- on the occasion ot the Morroccon dispute. Since the war, the I anther has been serving as unarmed survey ship in tbe navy. Now it is on sale together with 21 other vessels which the navy lias definitely stricken off the lists. These ships, which can be purchased only to be scrapped, include the armored cruisers BRsass, Braunschweig and laithringeno f 13,20 b terns displacement each, and three small cruis 's, the Nymphe, Ama zone and Hamburg, ranging from 12,800 ton 3,650 tons. Al! these v -s---seis were launched about, thirty years ago. Despite their age they have, until recently, been doing actlvie service in tbo navy. In acidition, the navy is offering for axis three old torpedo boats and about a dozen small coastguard -.-raft of from 1" to 4" 'on.displacement. The latter category !u former sales has been considerjed by rum-runners a coveted bargain on account of their comparatively high speed. The naval authorities have therefore taken steps to guard against the possibility that the vessels sold are' put to any other use, by stipulating that they be scrapped.
