It was a great convention, one of the largest attended in years and the visitors were impressed with the activity and note of progress evident in all parts of the city. One of the happiest Democrats in Indiana these days is Dick Heller of Decatur, energetic and capable campaign manager of M. Clifford Townsend, Democratic nominee for governor. —- Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette. Due to rain, the Joe Louis-Max Sehmeling fight was postponed until tonight. Although 70,000 tickets had been sold, the fans had to stay over and out this way we wonder if the hotel men had anything to do with it. It’s cheaper to get it by radio. Ground was broken yesterday for the construction of the additional soy bean storage buildings at the Central Soya Company’s plant. Men were working, steam shovels were on the job and a beehive of activity greeted the many visitors who visited the place, it made our hearts feel happy. In this fast moving age we more or less forget the important part elevators have played in the building of communities. No sooner were the railroads constructed than the elevators began to dot the right-of-way and soon communities sprang up. 'file elevators became gathering places and commercial institutions long before the towns in which they were located grew to prominence. It is a busines important to every community and through the services rendered by grain dealers in the operation of elevators, the millions; of people in cities receive part of their food supply. LaGrange, county seat of the northern-indiana county bearing the same name, is celebrating its Centennial this week. A three-day program has been arranged and naturally the whole community is devoted to the proper celebration of the town's one hundredth birthday. LaGrange county, together with Adams and other counties in the northeastern part of the state ; were founded in 1836. The people I of Adams county and Decatur, this CHANGE OF ADDRESS Subscribers arc requested to give old and new address when ordering paper changed front 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.

newspaper and the Decatur Centennial Association extends birth day greetings to the northern neighbor and a lot of happiness in the observance of the historical birthday. A BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH: Lieutenant Governor Townsend who will head the Democratic state ticket next fall with Henry F. Schricker of Knox as his runningmate for lieutenant governor, is a man who has had an interesting career. He has spent many years In the teaching profession, has been a dirt-farmer, has been a lawmaker in the legislative halls of the state and has filled executive office With great ability for getting things done smoothly and harmoniously. Mr. Townsend will be fifty-two years old August 11, just before he enters the strenuous part of the fall campaign. He is married and the father of three grown children. It was a dramatic episode in the Democratic state convention that his mother, well along in years, placed his name in nomination as a delegate from her home county. The new head of the Democratic state ticket was born on a farm in Blackford county and lived their until the age of eight. It was through the persuasions of his mother that he left the farm and set out to earn his own education. He worked in the oil fields as a teamster and in the glass factories as a laborer, saving money through the employment seasons in order that he might attend high school and college. After a course in teacher’s training, he began teaching school and with these earnings attended college in the summer terms. He received his A.B. degree from the Marion College and later completed a course in business administration in the Mafion business college. He taught in the Blackford county schools and was county superintendent of schools in both Blackford aud Grant counties. His teaching career ran from 1909 to 1919. He devoted most of his time to farming until 1932 when he won the office of lieuten-ant-governor by a majority of 194,870 votes over his Republican opponent. Mr. Townsend was a member of the Indiana legislature in 1923 and so was well qualified to preside over the Indiana senate when he became lieutenant governor. Through two regular sessions aud one special session of the General Assembly, the Indiana state senate under Mr. Townsend, as presiding officer, has been noted for the order and dispatch with which it attended to legislative problems. To him goes no spiall measure of credit for the successes of the Democratic state administration of the past four years. In addition to being presiding officer of the Senate, Mr. Townsend, by virtue of his office, also has been Indiana's agricultural commissioner and head of the Indiana state fair which his office managed with such success that it turned this formerly costly state venture into an annual profit for the state treasury. Mr. Townsend was married in 1910 to Nora Harris, a member of one of the oldest Quaker families in Grant County. They have three children, Max, age 23, and Lucille, age 21. a teacher in the Grant I county schools, and Mrs. Lamoyne Duncan, of Marion. Mr. Townsend is a member of the First Methodist Church in Marion. He belongs to the Elks Lodge in Hartford City. The Townsend home is at 1321 South Washington street in Marion. On accepting the nomination, amid the thunderous applause of more than 10,000 delegates and . visitors at the State Democratic convention, Mr. Townsend said, in part: "You have expressed your faith and your confidence in me. 1 would feel unworthy of that honor and that fadth if my persona) grati fication were not buried by a deep er sense of humility and of re
