We like the coal dealers, but if they don't mind we'll place a six mouth's order for this kind of weather. Two weeks from today the election will be over. Same of the State officials begin their terms in November, others in January and when Congress convenes. County, township and city officers begin their terms January 1. If you want to earn up to SSOO by next Christmas, get in touch with the managers of the Daily Democrat's Christmas fund club. You are paid for your work and have the opportunity to win one of, the large cash prixes. Hear Sherman Minton and see the New ileal parade on the afterniton of Monday, October 29. Recognised as an oratorical firebrand. Mr. Minton ts a man whom you'll enjoy hearing. The parade will be worth seeing and rill, amuse you. The Lions Club is planning to 1 entertain about 250 out-of-town guests next Tuesday, lions will, gather here from a score id towns i and cities and the Decatur boys, mighty proud of their city, are planning to show them the town. Do your part and welcome the visitors and show them the old. fashioned Decatur-way of making I them feel at home. Decatur could very easily be a trucking terminal. The large fleets operated by the Cloverleaf Creameries. the Mutschler Packing com-' pany, Yost brothers and other coßtractors and the hundreds now used in hauling beets make a lot of traffic around here. Transportations means business and in view of the number of trucks passing through here every day. there must be business to warrant their operation. A Circuit Court judge in Marion county has ruled that the name of Joseph R. Kyle, whom he Republicans nominated for lieutenantgovernor shall not be placed on the state election ballots this year. The court held that if the office was vacated, the vacancy should be filled by the state Senate The whole question ts largely a political fight and in the end the courts will more than likely uphold Mr. Townsend’s position and declare everything was done legally. William Breiner was a lovable gentleman, an honest and Indus. OPEN For Business 103 NORTH NINTH ST. Oaaeaitv U. B.

trlous farmer of thia community Ha lived In this county longer that the usual span of life alloted t< man and became endeared to hun , dreds. To men like him go tin credit for tile development of the agriculture section. He waa a pioneer of the soil and his whole life was bullded on those fine prln : ciples which make a respected citizen. Although living to be an nonagenarian, those who knew him regretted to learn of his death. For several years Martin Worthman's health was not the best. He also suffered from an Impaired eyesight, but you never heard him complain or for one moment thought he would give up. It he could counsel with the community today, his message would be, carry on. don't give up. In our sorrow let's also do the things which Mr. Worthman would want us to do. Pick up your spirits, build for the future and inspire others with your courage and faith in the community like he did- That was the Worthman gospel. The Home Owners' Ixvan Corporation, which began to operate Sept. 1. 1933. has saved from mortgage foreclosure more than 530,000 homes in every section of the country and has disbursed more than $1,600,000, Except for its work. 2.500,000 persons would have been evicted. The HOLC was devised to serve two purposes. said its ! chairman. Dr. John H. Fahey, in an address to the convention of I the Mortgage Bankers' Association of America in Chicago a few days ago. "it was intended to save worthy home owners wherever possible, and to prevent further demoralisation of real estate values and the mortgage market in the interest of millions of savers whose money was invested in mortgages through thousands of financial institutions- 1 am convinced that neither the business nor banking interests have fully realised what their own difficulties would have been but for HOLC.'' The Dully Democrat in announcing the opening of a Christmas < Fund Club, whereby members who obtain new subscriptions or renew (old ones, are given credits on the j grand cash awards, or are paid a commission on the business turned in. desires to serve two purposes. First, the campaign will provide gainful employment to a number of people. Secondly, we believe the time is here for business to j step out and grow. For more than i a decade the circulation of the paper has stood between 3.099 and 3.399. We don't believe in standing still. This is a county seat town with good stores and excellent roads leading to the city from all directions. There isn't any reason why the local trading territory cannot be extended. There will not be any wholesale purchase of credits and anyone found doing it will be disfranchised and dropped from the cbab. Awards must be secured through actual subscriptions to the paper. Those interested are asked to get in touch with the Club Managers at this office. p • “twenty years * AGO TODAY From the Daily Democrat Fite « • Oct 34—Germany bus an army of 599>'9 tree. a northern Francs aad South err.

More than 500 banks reopened in the United States during the ' fiscal year ending June 30. The new law insuring deposits up to $5,000 has stimulated confi- ’ uence in American banking and has brought money out of hiding. United States bonds are the highest in several months.

For every dollar owed by Indiana banks they reported June 30 first class assets in the sum of $1.19. Cash reserves held by reestablished banks were $73,000,000. amounting to 28 per cent if deposits and liabilities; six months ago it . was 22 per cent. In a year.

START WORK ON RADIO SYSTEM (Construction Work Starts On State Police Radio System Indianapolis. Ind.. Oct. 24 <U.R) With Gov. Fiiul V. McNutt turnling the first shovelful of dirt, coni struct ion on the central units of tile state police radio system was started today at the state fair- ! grounds. The ground-breaking ceremonies were held in the presence of Al (1. Feeney, superintendent of state state police, who is responsible for the plan; A M. Clossbrenner, Indianapolis. treasurer of the state police radio committee, and other state and police officials. Construction of the central unit will mark the second step in the fulfillment of a plan inaugurated <by Feeney more than a year ago. The first step was taken last week when the Culver Military Academy radio station was acquired by the state police department. The state-wide radio system, which eventually will include five broadcasting stations located in widely separated sections of the state, was made possible largely through the efforts of the Indiana Bankers Association. The bankers canvassed the state for funds, and with a $20,000 donation from the governor's contingent fund, raised approximately SSO- - This amount is to be used for m c/fasiestWay to borrcw Money You will like the ease and promptness with which you can borrow money here.
