Charter Member of The Indiana League of Home Dailies. If you can't enjoy this week, better have the family doctor look you over. A Chicago man stole a street car, the other day but so far none of the furnaces or red hot stoves have been molested. Last night's parade would have done credit to a city a hundred times the size of Decatur and the great crowd enjoyed it, praised and cheered it all the way. Primaries this week are creating attention because of course the various political leaders have away of figuring it out to their' advantage, regardless of results. Mr. Springer favors local control over the liquor business but those who remember the old days will recall that it didn't work so well either. There is always objection to liquor laws. Tonight the home comers will enjoy a banquet at the country club as guests of tho local people, hear tales of th'- old days, listen to a snappy address and have a great time visiting each other. There is nothing more interesting than an attractive parade and those this week are the best ever given here. The floats are marvelous and spectators fairly gasp as they see them go by. Watch and wait for tomorrow night’s. That's a great scrap for the National league championship now on between the St. Lottis Cards and the Chicago Cubs with the NewYork Ciants ready to slip in between. if the leaders hammer each other enough to permit it. Enjoy the rest of the week. It comes but once in a hundred years and it will probably be a long time - before we can celebrate as we are this week, it's a great show, with a great program for a great people. and it’s yours to entertain you. - ”■ ■■■ IO George Dent, the secretary of war, and one of the great leaders of America is seriously ill in Washington, D. C. For weeks his loyal friends and admirers have hoped against hope for his recovery which now seems extremely doubtful.

state will visit the Centennial and i assist in dedication of the tablet erected to the memory of the pioneers of tho first hundred years of history in Decatur and Adams ; county. 1 President Roosevelt is to visit the drought stricken region of the northwest, a journey not for poll- ! tics as many will charge, but bei cause he is a great humanitarian, whose heart beats with those in trouble and who hopes to plan some methods of relief. He Is for the people and never forgets those whom he can aid. We ask our visitors to look over Decatur outside tho fair district for we are proud of our beautiful and well kept homes, our miles of paved streets and sidewalks, our parks and churches anq schools and public buildings, out city plant, swimming pools and manufacturing concerns, our shops and stores and every thing here. Look us over. Children will tell their great ; grand children about the pageant given at this Centennial, depicting i the history of this community durI ing its first hundred years and how wonderful and realistic it was. Those who have worked so hard Ito produce this great play deserve ■ , more credit than we know how to give them. It was splendid, and many regret that it is over. Decatur will give Governor Mei Nutt an enthusiastic welcome when he comes tomorrow to dedicate the pioneer tablet in the court house yard. The governor is makI ing a special trip here from the Dunes where he is spending a I short vacation. He Wilf fly to Fort | Wayne and be met there by a re-! ception committee in automobiles, ' leaving immediately after the ceremony in order that he may reach l the Dunes before dark. It takes more than occasional cloudy skies to stop the ardor of the crowd that is gathered in Decatur this week to celebrate a hundred years of history and progress and life. There are more smiles to the square inch here this week than any where we know of and ; we hope they continue for after all that's a great asset to any community. There were a few years, whan smiles were rare but those [ days are past, we hope forever, i and we are again a happy, Godfearing. neighborly people. o ► 4 STAR SIGNALS —BY— OCTAVINE 1 For persons who nelleve that human destniy is guided by the planet, the daily boroscope is outlined by I a noted astrologer.
