This may be an election year, but it is also a Centennial year, even tor Cleveland. We never read where Candidate Springer had much to do with the Cleveland convention. Tell any ten year-old boy or girl that American freedom and liberty has been taken from them and they'll answer, "That's a hot one.” If a big lumbering*truck rams one of the automobiles double parked on Second street, that car will not be parked again. This week Democratic papers criticize Republican speeches and platforms and two weeks from now Republican papers will be taking digs about the Philadelphia convention. The beautiful shade trees are one of the city's greatest assets. They never looked finer and the joy they bring to thousands each day cannot be figured in a monetary way. The Knox headquarters went stale before the Chicago publisher got his elaborate suite opened. The Chicago Tribune seems pleased over the fact and has joined the Hearst forces in boosting Landon. Have you taken notice of the attractive and well lighted Centennial billboards at the entrances to Decatur? They carry the date of the big celebration and impress I visitors very favorably. See them at night. The home-comers are arriving and a cordial welcome is extended • them. Mrs. Crawford. Mrs. Coffee. Mrs. Burns, members of the Deca-' tur colony in Los Angeles are ar- ■ riving for the home-coming during i Centennial week. Who said the old town wasn't going to be in a happy mood? By golly if Roosevelt didn't do any thing else he at least reformed the Republican orators. Compare their speeches now with those four and eight years ago. They quote the Bible in every other CHANGE OF ADDRESS Subscribers are requested to give o!d and new address when ordering paper changed from one address to another. For example: If you change your address from Decatur R. R. 1 to Decatur R. R. 2, instruct us to change the paper from route one to route two. When changing address to another town, always give present address and new address.
breath, uct like they are conduct i ing u gospel meeting and seem to say, "Just give us a chance.” Members of St. Mary s parish in- ' vile the public to the annual ; church picnic and dinner next Sunday at Sun Set park. The emigre- ( gation appreciates the patronage . extended in past years and those I • in charge are exerting every effort to make the event more pleasing to all. Dinner will be served at' noon. Two of the most popular persons in Cleveland this week were the Misses Peggy Landon and Betty Vandenberg. Their fathers may be famous and high in Republican political circles, but honor and fame can't overshadow the place a pretty, youthful girl holus in the picture. The young ladies, attractive and of graceful poise came in for their share of the honors. While part of the country's legislative body and others who would like to be included in the law making assemblies gathered in Cleveland, proprietors of cocktail lounges and bars showed the boys how to do it. The law provides that these places close at 2:30 a. in.. so to accommodate the crowd and not throw anyone outside at the tolling of the bells, the Clocks were stopped. They'll hear plenty from that. Police appreciate the cooperation I of auto drivers in observing the I speed limit laws. The patrol of the principle streets at night and during the day is serving a good purpose and drivers are either cautious or wish to enter into the spirit of the movement to protect life. Decatur is not so big but that you can travel through the town in a short time, observing the 30mile limit in the residential district and 20 miles in the crowded I business area. It’s your safety. that of your friends, and children which compliance with speed laws protect. The itolice officers ask your cooperation. —_ _o .
