There are all kinds of clubs and societies, but the sweetest one we know of is the "Use Beet Sugar j Club.” Enrollment costs nothing I an : you are helping yourself by joining. The Catholic high school auditor-, him will lie the gathering place for I hundreds of farmers and beet grow-1 ers t might. The program will be i interesting, educational and helpful to all. For every 100 pounds of beet j sugar used a day’s work is given I to one tnan in the local factory. When beet sugar costs loss than other brands, it's both economy and good sense to buy it and use it. Business is getting better and this sta’ement can be backed with evidence in the form ot several advertising schedules received by the Daily Democrat from national concerns. Advertising is a sure sign ot life and evidently the drive for a new day is on. Special trade days in Decatur Friday and Saturday and a Treasure Hunt Saturday morning should attract the thrifty shopper. The local stores are prepared for the Christmas rush and it will be to your advantage to look around and make your purchases here this we.k. With the approach of winter we ' thought tragic accidents would les-i sen. Despite a rainy day Sunday, nine people were killed in Indiana over the week-end and a seore or more injured. Even if we had 100f;;ot wide roads probably some would think it meant taking more chances and tragedies might be as great as now. Men working and with money to 'spend soon reflects itself in the community. In this county more than $7,000 has already been paid to the civil work employes, in addition to the thousands of dollars expended by local industries. After all that's the way of making men and women happy, give them work and let them earn money. The country lost a great citizen in the death of Alexander Legge, head of tho International Harvester Company and first chairman of the Federal Farm Board. Mr. Legge served his government in

time of emergency and at great personal sacrifice to himself, being imbued with that American spirit, that life after all was In doing , something when called upon to serve. The Wynekoop murder case will open January 14, according to word from Chicago. Dr. Alice W’ynekoop, mother-in-law ot the murdered girl will be tried first and from tire conflicting statements made it appears that the trial will be interesting, if not sensational. If murder cases are what you are i looking for, a person couldn't go wrong by recommending the Wynekoop case. Tramps are becoming scarce and it's O. K. with us if wo don't have any of the back door visitors for the next year. Os course when men could not work it was natural for them to roam aronnd. but sthce the civil works projects got underway, a man can't complain about not having a chance. Those who beat i it home or to communities where they were known are now engaged in gainful work. It makes every- ! one feel better. On the heels of the announcej ment that Canada would permit I the extradition of Martin J. Instill, I brother of the former utility i tycoon, Greece announces that I steps are under way to extradite Samuel lusull. The former utility I head has been a fugitive for several months and up to this time the | state department has been unable ito bring abont the return of the two men. In court they no doubt will have a great and shocking story to tell and it may mean prison to both of them. The end came today. Prohibition lived 14 years, the people, at least a majority tired of it and its effects on the country and by popular vote decided to do away with the 18th amendment. That's the way we do things in America. One generation gets all worked up over this and that question, laws are passed and in less than a score of years, opinions and thoughts of the people change and so do the laws. Passed in the stress of the war days, the greatest statesmen of the day proclaimed that prohibition would not work. It seems to us that the best remedy is a personal practice of 1 temperance and moderation in I drink and in this move ail decent people should be united. Society can regulate the liquor traffic better than law. because after all the rank and file are the law. Anyone hates to see a person throw himself away, so to speak, on account of excessive drinking, and it’s largely up to the individual to regulate his use of intoxicants, regardless of laws or amendments.

Mitzi Green

up roles. In a brief year and a half, Mitzi has grown up and she has signed a contract with RKO to play a boarding school girl in “Just Off Fifth Avenue.” The youthful comedienne gets here sometime before the holidays and starts work by the first of the year. And here’s a tip for you. RKO is

putting heavy pressure on Frances Dee and Joel McCrea to play the romantic leads in the same film. They haven’t said yes as yet and it’s better than even odds that they will stand by their original idea of maintaining separate careers. They’re all chuckling about Sophie Tucker’s encounter with Vince Barnett. The professional ribber dropped into a Hollywood late spot after a day’s work at Columbia and was introduced to Sophie in his familiar role of a German producer. “Vat is de name?” he inquired. “I'm Sophie Tucker,” replied the comedienne, polite but a little nettled. Barnett shook his head. "Nash.” he sneered, “you don’t even look like her. I know Sophie Tucker. She’s a little colored girl.” Any loud noise you hear coming from the Warner Brothers studio will be the “Wonder Bar” situation coming to a head. The all-star cast assembled for the picture feel that it’s too much a case of playing second fiddle to Al Joleon. Rumor says there’s a lively battle for closeups going on and that the rivalry is ndt entirely good-humored. Al, of course, is not worrying. He picked the play and his role is a good one. But some of the other actors are envying Warren William and Genevieve Tobin who bowed out of the assignment. Hollywood’s former “Little Church Around the Corner,” where

Leia Rogers, mother of Ginger Rogers, will put on a series of plays. The first, “Even as Heathens," opens next Tuesday with Betty Furness playing a leading role. Mervyn Leroy already has bought 10 seats for the opening night, and Lew Ayres, Ginger’s current inter- 1 est, has reserved another block. The rackets that Hollywood stars have to face will be exposed by Bert Wheeler in a book to be called “Square People?” The comedian has completed the story in outline form and expects to have it ready for a publisher early in the new year.

George, the author of Peck's “Bad Boy" says that his “Bad Boy" is somewhat older, taller, and stronger, but that he is still wide awake, full of vinegar, knows the whereabouts of watermelon patches, still ties an oyster can to a dog's tail and always slips under throitgh the walls of a circus tent. We were told yesterday that Peck's “Bad Boy" entered a grocery store in Decatur and replaced the grocery signs with misleading humorous insignia such as: for sale; “Wormy Figs for Parties,” “Spoiled Canned Ham and Tongue, good enough for Church Picnics," “Strawberries, two Shillings a Smell, and one Smell is enough,” "Smoked Dog fish at Halibut Prices. Good Enough for Company." “Yellow Sand Wanted for Maple Sugar," “Leave Your Measure for Saffron Tea," “Pop Corn in which the Cat has slept, cheap for Pop Com Balls for Sociables” "Cash Paid for Fat Dogs." Fresh Lettis, been picked for two weeks. Tuffer’n Trips”—all because the grocery man did not handle Crystal White Sugar. To Crown Queen Decatur high school will publicly coronate and crown its Beet Sugar Week queen, Martha Elizabeth Calland. Saturday afternoon following the big parade, which will be held at 2 o'clock. The high school boys will take part in arranging and erecting the neces-. sary stage for the coronation on Court street. The Sugar Beet queen, Martha Elizabeth Calland, will have the following girls as her attendants: Evelyn Kohls, Helena Rayl, Kathleen Odle. Pauline Affolder, Mary Kathryn Tyndall and Allien Porter. 0 Co.

Wines containing their natural alcoholic content may be sold freely by any one having a state permit. Wines to which alcohol has been added by artificial means are subject to the same regulations as whisky or -grain alcohol. Retailers will not be permitted to display liquor or any advertising matter pertaining to spirttous bbeverages in their show windows. They will not be permitted to make deliveries of whisky since the purchaser is required to appear in person. To be eligible for a retail permit a drug store must have been in business continously for three years in the same location. The yearly fee for a state retail permit is $25. Wholesale liquor permits may be issued only to manufacturers or wholesale drug or grocery firms. The wholesaler must have been in business continously for three years Just the same as a retailer.
