FAST TIME IS DEFEATED HERE Citizens Turn Down Proposal To Turn Clocks Ahead This Year Daylight saving time in Decatur appeared to lie doomed. With half the city’s precincts reported the central standard time advocates were ahead by 185 votes. The three precincts which were reported early this morning had a large part of Decatur's vote and there was little hope of the fast timers gaining enough to enforce the ordinance. , Several weeks ago local business Inten petitioned the council to repeal the fast time ordinance and after a week or two of discussion it was decided to hold a refrendnm. Much interest centered around the voting and both sides claimed a victory. As a result of the majority favoring central standard „ time, the clocks in Decatur will re"main unchanged during the sum-mer-rniHiths this year and the ordinance Will be repealed. WOMAN’S CLUB HOLDS PARTY _ More Than 250 Decatur Girls Guests As Part of Week’s Program More than 250 girls of the fifth, sixth, seventh, eighth grades and high school were entertained by the Woman's Club at the Decatur high school auditorium, Monday evening.

Dr. Harry O. Jones, Berne, who made the race i las a wet Republican. Hogg car-1 rietl Allen county by approximatei ly 2.000 votes, upsetting the hopes of the Jones forces who had claim--I'ed that county by from 5,000 to 7,1 500. Jones was beaten in almost every ' precinct of his own county, Adams, ami there was little hope expressed that he would carry a single county. The Hogg vote in Allen county I was a decided upset. A concerted effort luid been made for Dr. Jones (in that county and his boosters claimed the county by a big majority. The Republican vote was light throughout the eight counties of the district. Hogg won Wells, county by more than two to one;: , jhe carried Adams county two to* one: Allen county by 2.000 or more; I DeKalb by better than two to one: i , LaGrange by a scant majority; | . Steuben by q big plurality and Noble by more than 1.000. Whit-' ley was slow coming in, but Jones was far behind in the scattered pre- !' cfhets. Hogg, branded as a dry will be ! i a candidate against the Democratic • nominee in the geenral election' next November and in all probabilistic* the Democrat will be a woL . o - Delegates Are Named | Ten of the McNui*. pledged dele-] ' i gates won places in the Democratic i (election for delegates to the state' I convention yesterday.
