Automobile and airplane smash-ups arc doing the job. ■ These are great days in old Hoosierdom. The world seems bright and happy and it s probably all on account of Indiana's Indian summer. Next Saturday is Discovery day. •a national holiday, observed in •celebration of Columbus’ discovery of this country. Banks will be -closed, according to law, and in -many communities programs com‘.memorating the great event will 'be held. »• Democrats of the Fourth district •■are invited to the rally to be held in Auburn next Friday. Governor McNutt and Congressman James 1. L Farley are among the headliners. 'One of the features will be an old fashioned torchlight parade and Democrats from northern Indiana -will gather for the big event. * The individual would not do “without plumbing and bath room “fixtures. To go back to the "good “old days” would create a condition which no one would stand for.

Off year elections are ‘watched with interest, but very rarely are gauges for the national contests, because of local issues. Anyway we have to take them as they come. . We believe it would serve a good jiurpose to have a reorganization 4>r reTtval of a local merchant s tissociation. dealing solely with retail problems, sales and efforts along ihat line. Several years ago such an organization functioned here and sponsored city-wide sales and programs that attracted visitors and shoppers. During the depression it died, but since we are seeing the sun again and going upward, it looks like it would be a good time to put a little fire under the boilers.

The j venture is at least new, in view of all the applications made for federal loans for public buildings. President Roosevelt does not waft country to get into the war and as he says, “We must not and shall not become involved." He warns individual and manufacturer not to deal with the belligerent nations and to keep away from making any deals with either side. He stated his belief in the free dom of the seas, but warned Americans not to travel on Italian boats. His stand has the approval of the American people. By tak ing steps now, war can be prevented and this nation does not want to fight in any European battle. And now. the Indiana University Band has won a new distinction It has been invited to play at* the opening of the $12,009,000 Texas Centennial Exposition next June. The invitation recognizes the band as the “outstanding” university toot-and-strut organisation in the country. And the men who extended the invitation are not taking anybody else's word for it. They saw the 1. U. Band parade at the Southern Methodist game at Dal las in 1930; and ever since then. Texas papers have been talking about Indiana's “Marching Hundred.” —News-Sentinel. The last census gave Adams county about 2,100 farm homes, which number varies little from year to year. The Daily Democrat now goes into more than 1.700 of these rural homes, which medium provides the merchant and manu facturer with a speedy means of reaching the buying public in this community. Within the city, the carrier boys deliver more than 1.300 papers every night, giving the advertiser practically one bun dred per eent coverage. Newspaper advertising is the surest method of having your sales message reach the public. The subscriber pays for the paper and wants to know what is in it. 0 — Sydney, N. S.
