We know little about it but we have a hunch it will be Louis in less than ten rounds. “ The way to beat the coal strike, if it does prove serious, is to fill your liins up now and be able to look wise when the middle of winter reaches here. With the closing of the baseball season, the Baer-Louis fight, the opening of college football, tennis and golf matches on over the country. there seems to be no reason why the fans should not enjoy this week. It seems to take a lot of time to get the relief work under way and we can’t help wondering why some one doesn't order a general shake up of those in charge if they can't get together. We don't believe the general public is interested in who does it but they certainly want it done quickly The Bluffton street fair is on this week and you may feel safe in seeing a good program if you attend. It is probably the oldest street fair in the United States, having run continuously for a week out of the year for a third of a century and is admitted to be the outstanding event of its e kind in the middle west. John Barrymore seems to have tired of his high school girl and is trying to get away from her. The young lady. Elaine Barrie, . chased him across the continent, or nearly so, and is now pouting in Kansas City. She would know, if she looked up the actor's past history that he is a dangerous gentleman with whom to fall in love. Italy still seems to have a chip on her shoulder and now England is letting the dogs bark. It looks very serious "over there" and if something don't happen soon, the first shot may not be far away. We hope and believe the United States will have the good judgment, .to remain neutral and to enter no conflict except in defense of this nation and the lives and property of her citizens.

Everett W Watkins says Harold i L. Hikes, secretary of tho interior, is not happy. He declares he has been a Republican and Bull Moose, but never really a Democrat. Well. ' if its worrying him. there is no t reason we know of why he can't retire from the honor given him by President Roosevelt and if his worries interfere with his duties, : that's just what he ought to do. He is probably peeved becase he , wasn't given full spending power I of the $4,800,000,000, with which he 1 certainly has no business. ■ It will probably prove the wisest i course for the Decatur Light and Power Company to go forward on its own resources as in the past in preference to making a large loan from the government on which they would have to pay interest and furnish a mortgage that might tie them up in operation of their rural lines. The local plant has moved along successfully, by dealing on a fifty fifty basis with the farmer who wants power and light and there is no reason why this program can not continue. If the depression has taught us any thing worth while it surely has been to avoid unweildy debts. President Roosevelt is to make a ten-day tour through the middle west and will visit Indiana. That he will meet many people and talk to them face to face is assured. He has proven his greatness and we believe he still has the confidence of the majority of the people of America. He has done much the past three years to restore this nation, he is opposed to any interference that will entangle this nation in war. he is safe and sane and aggressive and progressive and if the people are wise, they will ' permit him to continue in office ' another four years. We just can 11 imagine any of those so far proposed getting any where with the big job which now appears rather well whipped. Beet lifting started this morning, three hundred will be put to work, this week, a hundred day run at : the sugar factor will start Thursday. That's good for three cheers for every one around here for it means added buying power, greater happiness, another step towards the end of depression. We have much to be thankful for in this community and there is no reason why we should not be moving along at a normal gait. The season has been about perfect this year and as a result it is expected the larg- ( est acreage ever harvested will be on this week. It is a remarkable fact that of the 13,700 acres alotted by the government for the Central Sugar company, a total of 13,341 acres will be harvested. The big plant is in excellent condition and Mr. McMillen and his assistants are looking forward to the most successful campaign of their experience. It's the realization of the anticipation of every one connected with the factory and those who are sincere in their support. It means the expenditure of him dreds of thousands of dollars to laboring men and farmers and its a great closing quarter to the year 1935. o * TWENTY - lEARS* AGO TODAY | From the Daily Democrai File | Sept. 23—Mies Ethel Ruckman and Fred Okliy married by Glendening.
