Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dailies These are the “bye baby bunting’’ days, when the dads go out to get a rabbit skin and a few quails and a fox squirrel or two. Candidates in the recent election, both winners and losers, are expected to file expense accounts with the county cierk. This applies to those candidates for offices which pay more than 8100 per year salaries. The political gathering at French Lick was probably a relaxation more than a conference- The men and women who work at politics go through a severe strain during campaigns and its great to rest for a few days. Those clouds make ns shiver for they indicate we are approaching the winter season. Those who are not ready for that .period of the year when fuel and extra food is needed to keep the body right, should not lose any more time. The state has added seven hundred miles to her road system, including several miles in the northeast part of Adams county. It s great that when improvements of this kind are cousiderea. this coun. ty gets her share. Let s keep pulling together. That's what counts most. President Roosevelt is going to Wann Springs, Ga., for a rest. He will return in a short time full of vigor and reaify to go on with his program for getting and keeping this nation out of the depression. He is more popular uow than ever and he should be. We appreciate the voluinn of advertising we have been receiving from local business men and wt hope they keep it up, not only because we want the business but because the more pep there is in a community, the belter for every one and the only sound way to have that is by advertisingThe new stop and go sign at Madison and Second streets is a help. It slows down the speeders and causes every one to be more careful, it of course makes us loso a few seconds but that’s nothing when compared to the casualties that result when utmost care is not exercised. The Decatur school board will select a superintendent tonight to succeed the late Martin F. Worthman, who during the past eighteen years, has set up a high standard. To whoever the important position goes, we are sure we can assure the earnest support, of every citizen of Decatur. The work of building the new forty-eight houses, a government experiment, is going right along merrily and within a month, that section will resemble a jtrosperous small city. Decatur is moving fdr ward and that's the most encouraging news any community can receive. Watch us grow in 1935.

The Christmas Club campaign now In progress Is becoming Interesting and will continue so during the next mouth It Is to be strictly ‘j. on the level and In every way friendly. We ask that you give those who call on you a courteous 1 reception, a friendly word and better still, your subscription to the t Dally Democrat. * The 1935 session of the Indiana legislature will be the usual inter2 eating one, with many important measures tip and a lot of folks j anxious to pull one way or the oth- ) er. There will be new liquor bills. ’ employment measures and a thous- ( and other acts. We will keep you posted from day to day through our special and V P. services. Letters of appreciation have been received from winning candidates in last Tuesday's election by the Woman's Democratic club and the Young Voters club and the compliments given them are deserved. These two organizations worked incessantly and each expects to grow during the next two years. They can and will be of great benefit to Adams county and to the regular Democratic organization. Those of us who can look back a couple of scores of years certainly realite and appreciate the wonderful improvement in the roads of Adams county. Back in the nine, ties, there were times when it was impossible to get over the highways, except on horseback and that was sometimes a tough job. Then I came the macadam roads and for, two decades, this county led all 1 others in improvements of that ■ kind. Now we have the wide state j pavements that make travel easy | and each year brings more wiles and additional improvements- Take a ride over the newest stretch, 527, from hereto Willshire, and you will surely lie ImpressedSixteen years ago yesterday moriptog at eleven o'clock. European’fhne. Ynd five o'clock A. M central standard, the world war, most terrible conflict in all time, came to an cud. Tite news caused joy in every corner ot the world for so terrific had become the battles that it began to look as though the young men of every nation would be destroyed. It was supposed to be a war to end war aaid with that ideal this country entered the conflict. For a time it seemed, that might be true, but the world turned upon Woodrow Wilson's ideals and today we face difficulties almost as serious as they were in 1914. America is forced to maintain an army of defense both on land and sea. but this need not prevent us all from hoping and praying that we never engage again in the age old art of killing or being killed- While we pay fitting tribute to the heroes of the war. we should give much thought to how we can prevent similar disasters in the world. This country loves peace and for that reason we must keep so prepared for defense that we can maintain the respect of other nations.

Mr. Thomas, who is a captain in the reserve officeng training corps, stated that it has always been the policy of the United States to j have only a small standing army , in time of peace, and that we have never had an army ot citizens, as every European nation has. “When we entered the World War.’’ the speaker said, “we were totally unprepared for active duty and were forced to rely on the allied forces until an army could I be mobilized and trained for service. “In 22 mouths. America spent more money than all other nations participating in the war." Mr. Thomas then told of the passage by congress in 1920 of the National Defense act.
