Even the Republicans are at odds with the recently organized American Liberty League. Perhaps there is something to it. Those communities which are able to keep the tax rate down and at the same time provide necessary conveniences, are the ones which will step out ahead of the others. . Most of those who are complain-; ing about the s!s.<rit) salary of Hugh Johnson wouldn't do the job for ten times that and many of, them couldn’t. The same fellow who predicted a coo! summer is now declaring that next winter will be long and > extremely cold. Take it for what ” it is worth. No one knows any > more about it than you do. Monday will be Labor Day. set' apart for those who toil to eele- 1 brate. In the larger cities it is important and the occasion is observ-' ed with elaborate programs while in the smaller towns it becomes a day of rest, frequently given over to sports. In a number of Indiana cities.■ surveys are being made now. look.' ing towards the location of industries which will provide permanent I employment for men. National and state organizations are cooperat. ! ing in this important work which' should prove mighty helpful. The man who wrote a letter to Mrs. Roosevelt threatening harm* to her grandchildren unless she: sent him $168,000 should be sent to the Pacific Island for safe keep-' ing. There is no room in this, country for those who thus annoy I to an extreme those in iiigh position. Deposit your money in the 1 banks. It's safe there and under ■ the protection of federal insurance, is safer than anywhere else. It’s 1 foolish to keep cash about the' house, thus inviting robbery orj take a chance on it being destroyed by a fire or eaten up by mice.' Make your money work. An epidemic of intej'inal influenza, said to be a cross between typhoid and malarial fever is causing many deaths in Central Ind. j iana. At Hartford City in two days this week ten persons died and | many others were ill with the dread disease. It seems to be se. vere among the older people. There may be some sound reason for the Textile strike but to the average person it hasn't been made clear how any one will benefit by a tie-up at this lime of the year. If every one will help a little we have a chance to get out of the “nine-hole" in which we have been struggling the past several ybars. It's a bad time to rock the boat.

More than three hundred tickets ’ of admission to the state fair have ' been sold In Adams county and indications are that the attendance I from here will be the largest ever known. The program this year is 1 unusually good, including many ?i features, some of which are sure I to please you. The gates opened , I today and the fair will continue until next Friday. ! If frost will stay away thre or ■ four weeks, the corn and beets, as well as the potatoes and other j late crops will be better than was j anticipated a couple of weeks ago j when the drouth was at its peak. ; Crops will not be normal this year but it could be much worse and I the average person is not com- ‘ plaining. It's a pretty good old I country to live in after all. _= A sugar day in Decatur will make an occasion worth while and one that can't be duplicated by i any city In Indiana because we i happen to have the only factory i of that kind in the state. A eimiI lar event last year, you will re- ! member, was a very happy one and j demonstrated that this community j is 1(10% behind those who are making the Central Sugar plant one of the best in the country. By all means let's have beet Sugar week. In every county in Indiana plans are being made to take advantage of the opportunity to remodel i houses or build new ones. Announcements of county managers I will be made the first of next week and the counties will be organized so that all who so desire may seI cure the money with which to pro- • vide a pleasant and modern home. I The movement should go a long ways towards providing (employment for the various tradesmen. o ♦ , . 4 Many Reunions Scheduled For Summer Months ♦ . .. 0 Sunday, September 2 Brown family reunion, C.

We are not prepared to do that. Me will haul all the children in the four districts abandoned, mid as many as we can along the rente while gatli , erfng the high school pupils, and white there ure several families in district No. 7 which we are compelled to haul. Beginning next Tuesday all pupils less than two miles from school will he accomodated providing they walk to the route going towards the school. I We haven't time to go back and forward on all roads. We are not hauling all pupils in a distrld which has a school. The drivers are not allowed to speed, hence they must have time to cover their respective route*. We want to treat all alike as far as possible, and are sorry we are not in a position to haul all pupils. If there are any pupils in the < township that are entitled to transportation and have been missed they will please notify the trustee and we will make arrangements to accomodate them. We went to keep up our schools equal to any in the county, but as you all know that our funds are limited, hence I ask you to co-op-erate with us as much as you can, and keep out transportation cost to the minimum.
