There’s still other days to celebrate, so don’t come up missing over the Fourth. Ah! It's the nation's birthday and every boy and girl is letting you know about it. To the visiting Legionnaires and women of the Auxiliary, we extend an invitation to return for the Centennial celebration. Use the free parking lots located on First street. Tiiese locations are witin easy walking distance of the center of town and are provided to accommodate visitors and shoppers. The city of Decatur uses about $30,000 worth of food stuffs per month as compared to the state average of $19,506. The reason is that this is a good market and those stores which advertise gcT the business. The corner stone of the Methodist church will be replaced tomorrow with appropriate ceremonies. We well remember the occasion fifty-live years ago, wfien the stone was first set with much ceremony and this one promises to be.'just as interesting. Greet the Legionnaires and their guests here Saturday. Decatur is again host city to the Fourth district rally of the Legion and Auxiliary and in return extends the glad hand of fellowship and offers all it has in the way of hospitality and cordiality. We hope our guests enjoy every minute of their visit and return often. We lire proud of the three young ladies selected as the leading ladies in the Decatur Centennial. Miss Preida Scherer as Miss Decatur, Miss Mildred Teeple as Miss Indiana, and Miss Ruth Elzey as Miss Adams county. Young, attractive and beautiful, they will add much to the various events in which they will take part during the historic week. Decatur has had a number of big Legion days aud tomorrow promises to be the best. The program includes a parade worth seeing, a conference meeting of importance, a concert by the Decatur girls band, a fireworks disCHANGEOF ADDRESS Subscribers arc requested to give old and new address when ordering paper changed from one address to another.

When changing address to another town always give present ad dress and new address.

I play at Niblick field and a good , time all the way. It makes a suitable and intereattng celebration of the groat holiday, the Fourth of July. 1..t Press associations are planning Ito send special writers to Decatur to cover news events of the ‘ Centennial. The United Press, t which service is furnished the Daily Democrat, will have one of 2 its best writers here for the open- ) lug day and arrangements are also ’ being made with other news gathj ering agencies to report the birth- > day celebration. ) J- ’ Although the government’s debt is estimated at about 34 billions, nearly nine billion of this amount Is listed under the head of “Recoverable assets.’’ The amount represents the money loaned to home owners, public works projects and . other agencies which will be re- • iwiid to the government, so the total debt is not as big as some would like you to believe. ’ I When they get that Florence Thompson Castle murder mystery straightened out they will prob- , ably discover tiiat the perpetrator was a much older and wiser man I than the seven-year-old jimmy ■ Thompson who has been question- ; ed several days. We can’t imagine a youngster of seven wielding a brick with such terrible re--1 suits, keeping himself clean and being able to stand the questioning of the Chicago police force. A month from today and the big Centennial celebration will be underway. Sundays program will no doubt be one of the greatest community gatherings ever seen in this part of the state. The field mass. Lutheran afternoon service and the union service of Protestant churches will bring thousands of people. It is proper that we ; dedicate ourselves to God. thank: Him for His many blessings and remember those who have build ed for us. Cities with vacant factory buildings as a result of the depression are coming into their own now.' Rig industry is enlarging and at the same time locating new factories in smaller towns. Over at Lima, Ohio, the Westinghouse Electric and Manufacturing Company lias purchased an idle plant and plans to put more than a thousand people to work. Kokomo, this state, also is enjoying much, progress and employment through I the rehabilitation of old factories. Factory sites are valuable to communities and where modern buildings are available, industry is absorbing them quickly. i o STAR SIGNALS —BY— OCTAVINE i For persons who believe that hu-, man destnly is guided by the planet,' tile daily horoscope is outlined by I a noted astrologer.
