The old month of November — bringing to mind taxpaying time. Armistice Day and Thanksgiving. It looks like the stop slogan is not going to be any more effective than the stop Roosevelt movement. As the old-time newspaper line used to read, “They stayed until a late hour and all had a good time", speaking of the Halloween celebration. . Enthusiasm is largely responsible for successful carrying through of community projects and betterments. Let’s keep it in city affairs. The grapevines are springing up during these last days of the campaign. Next week at this time the same stories will sound more than silly. The grind will soon be over and then let's make plans for a big Christmas celebration and the start of a new year that promises to be one of the busiest of the past decade. Decatur is not going to stand still, it isn’t the nature of our people to get in a rut and no community has a better feeling or more optimistic outlook than we have here. A year from today, more progress should be noted. The published bank statements show a stronger financial condition than for the last quarter, denoting a pick-up in business and renewed faith in banks. The First State Bank of this city lists a cash balance of more than 3263.000.000, with additional reserves of $208,000 in U- S. government bonds and over $200,000 of other bonds. An additional safeguard is the federal insurance covering all deposits up to five thousand dollars. Let the banks put your money to work. A little thing like a low river stage does not worry the Central Sugar Company officials. They propose to keep the big mill running.

rain or no rain and if anyone doubts their determination, a minute's talk with Messrs. McMillen and Snyder will change his opinion, p Despite the fact that the river is at low stage, an ample supply of water is being obtained for the * sluices. The company has removed obstructions and loosened pockt ets of water in the river bet!, thvs i keeping a steady flow down stream In addition the settling basin, recently constructed by the company, " holds millions of gallons of water ) j and if necessary the company will 5 erect a spillway, send the water J up stream and keep the factory j running. That's the stuff boys—- ) on with the show, as the theatrical men say. T’.ie suggestion has been made: again that the high school athletic field on West Adams street, be named in memory of Martin Worthman, beloved superintendent ‘ of the city schools, who lived to see his dream of such a recreation center and playground brought to completion. It would be a fine thing for the school city to dedicate the field and call it “Worth, man Field.'' At the time the grounds were laid out, the sugges- - tion was made that it be named for the man largely responsible for the community's interest in the boys and girls of Decatur, but complying with Mr. Worthman's mod-1 est wish, the field was not so nam- j ed. Not because Mr. Worlhman's . memory need be perpetuated in such a manner, for his work will be remembered always, but as a mark of respect to him. we suggest the field be named for him. “It is labor's responsibility to see to it that Arthur Robinson is not re-elected. I know that thepe are some so-called spokesmen for ; the Railroad Brotherhoods who say they have endorsed him: but I say to you that organized labor has not j endorsed Mr. Robinson. Those' _ I I men are the same men who two : years ago opposed the election of I Mr. Roosevelt. They did every-j thing in their power to defeat Mr. | Roosevelt. But I know what the I laboring men of this country want They know who put the recovery | program into operation. Their 1 hearts beat for the man in the White House today and for the Democratic leaders who have been the true friends of labor. The working than and woman are go-1 ing to help the party that has helped them. They are going to help Mr. Roosevelt finish the work that he has begun.”—Daniel C. Tobin, president of I. B- of T. Sherman Minton. Democratic candidate for United States senator has the following to say about the veteran s cause: “I wish to say that if I am elected United States senator from Indiana no act will ever be passed by the congress with my vote which will work an injustice io the veteran, to the veteran's widow or to his family. It will be my pleasure to help restore : compensation in every just and worthy Indiana veteran's case. I hope to see the day when just compensation is established for veterans of all American wars. I stand for principles that the veterans' organizations have advocated for years. I say this: If our sons and our children ®ro to be conscripted for the next war, I insist that wealth and property likewise be universally conscripted. If it takes all the man-power of a nation to win wars we must have the dollars and the resources of our nation standing solidly behind them. I am for universal conscription and for the taking of profit out of war” o ARRIVALS Word has been received here of the birth of twins to Mr. and Mrs. Wilmer Heidenrich. 731 East Jes-1 ferson street, Fort Wayne. The twins were bom Friday night, October 26. and have been named Susan Maril and Edward Lee. The former weighed seven end one half pounds and the latter seven and one quarter pemnds. Mrs. Heidenrich was formerly Miss Mary Kelsey of east of Decatur.

The writer hopes and trusts that the person selected for this important position is most capable and has the interest of the ' youth of our city at heart. The esteem, the respect, the love that our citizens and youth felt for Mr. Worthmant has been expressed since his death The good he did will live and not be soon forgotten. The Decatur school board how. ever can perpetuate the memory of Martin Worthman forever in this city by designating that the new high school athletic field be named “Martin Worthman Field" or "Worthman Field.” The writer makes this as a suggestion to our school board and knows this suggestion will meet with the approval of all who knew Martin Worthman as the real man and friend he proved himself to be to the youth for Decatur.
