Watch this city grow and go with it. The state fair is in progress and is going over big. Indiana’s fairs now rank with the best in the United States and all records for at- i tendance are being broken daily. The present campaign is more' important than just a contest be-, tween Democrats and Republicans. It is a fight to continue the era of prosperity. Better not take any chances, Huntington is lighting for light- j ed streets and a suit has been til ed by the city council to force Mayor Bangs to stop turning off the street lights. That’s a serious situation for any city. It looks like the Giants and the I Yanks for the world - series, a fact! that doesn’t please most of the j local fans who have been pretty evenly divided as between the Cubs attd Cardinals, but there doesn't seem to be much that can be done about it. Don t let them fool you, a net income tax will not provide the money necessary to operate the I various necessary departments during these days and that means that Indiana will have to revert to a' higher tax on real estate or go! deeply in debt. — ~ Those who are making a sight 1 against the McMutt administration I in Indiana, seem to overlook the fact that this state leads all in the' Union in about every way and that on top of the fact that when McNutt became governor, there was l a seven million dollar deficit. If the Literary Digest had taken I its first polls in Kentucky. Texas. Arkansas and Mississippi, no one would have paid much attention to the results. Instead they polled, for some reason. Maine, Pennsylvania, New Jersey and up state , New York, so make your own conclusions. Democratic women of the county should attend the meeting to be held in the Lehman grove at Berne on Thursday, September 17th. A good program has been arranged, and Mrs. Muselman, who Is In CHANGE OF ADDRESS Subscribers are requested toggiv e old and new address when ordering paper ehanged from cne address to another.

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

charge, assures every one who J comes a good time and an interesting one. A snappy six weeks campaign is being planned for Adams county by Chairman Nelson and his assistants and every one who feels that I this nation can best he served by the re-election of President Roose- ' velt, Cliff Townsend as governor, tthe county ticket and a congress to back it up, should cooperate with those on whom the burden of making the fight fails. Os course some changes should and will be made in the gross income tax laws. It would be strange indeed if such an important and voluminous law eould be perfectly written, but it has merit and don’t mistake the fact—and , those really interested should aid in working out the defects and perfecting it. instead of leaping into , some unknown and untried method. With a large toll of accidents re- 1 suiting from the heavy traffic over the double holiday, it may be well 1 : to call your attention to the fact | that in traveling these next few weeks, you should be careful, es-! I peciaiiy on the detours. Don’t try ' to break speed records, its danger-. ous. Warnings have been sent out by the state highway commission ' calling special attention to this 1 % , during the state fair. There's pep in the air, the people [ are going places and doing things. i enjoying the autumn and prepar-j .ing for w inter. The merchant who i wishes to increase his business' ' volumne is inviting them to trade 1 with him. Are You? If not. don’t 1 wail, call this office and we will be I glad to assist you in preparing your i copy for as many advertisements 1 as you feel will benefit your particular business. Do you realize that if the Re | I publicans could elect every one of 1 i the 34 U. S. senators to be chosen’ | tliis year, they would still lack two of having a majority? Think what I that means. If Landon should hap 1 pen to be elected, he can't possibly have a friendly congress and there will follow of course two to four years of an idle government. This ■ i is the crisis and by your vote you ' will decide wether or not you favor! going on in the fight against de-j ! pression or giving up and permitt- ■ ■ ing the conservatives to order you to paddle your own canoe or drown. o ; Household Scrapbook By Roberta Lee |i Boiling Eggs The shells of the eggs will not I i crack while boiling if the eggs are ' dipped in cold water immediately before putting them in the boiling water Care of Brooms Scald the brooms for a minute lor two in boiling soap suds once I a week, and it will keep them tough and flexible, beneficial to i both the brooms and the suds. Cracked Crockery When a piece of crockery has a : 1 tiny crack in it, try boiling it in sweet milk, and see if it isn’t restored to use. o Modern Etiquette I | By ROBERTA LEE Q. Is there a time limit within which a bride must acknowledge i her wedding gifts? A. She should do so at the very I earliest possible time, and will find it a much wiser method if she will write these letters from day to 1 day. rather than wait until all gifts 1 are received. Q. Having been introduced to some new neighbors, will an invitation to a luncheon or tea sent to 1 them lake the place of first call? A. No; the call should be made ' first. Q. What does it indicate when I a hostess does not offer her hand 1 when greeting a guest? 'A. it indicates redeness, or ignor- ' auce of social customs. o Trade in a Good Town — Decatu' To Make Good Pickles Use ESTELLE’S B. & B. Spice Mixture, with Green Tomatoes, or Cucumbers.

book notes k__ — -♦ An American Doctor » Odyssey By Victor Heiser Almost from the day he iniracul ously escaped as a bby in the great Johnstown flood. Viator Heiser Ims devoted his tine aud energy to the saving of human life. Up nnd down and across the world he has traveled —a veritable Ulysses ot modern medicine. At the outset of his medical i career he was a medical officer In I the United State immigration service, stationed in Europe to prevent the exodus of the unfit to this country. Soon after the I nited ! States assumed control of the * Philippines, he was appointed director of health and for ten years labored with heartening success to 1 I transform the Filipinos from a weak and feeble, pffigue stricken race to a strong and healthy nation. At the conclusion of this service he became what he somewhat whimsically calls "a globetrotting drummer’’ for the RockeffTier Foundation, and for twenty years "sold " the Idea of health to almost every out of the way and forgotten corner of the world. All of the dreaded plagues that take their toll of humans by the thousands—cholera, smallpox, hookworm, her! beri, malaria, tuberculosis, leprosy I -came under his observation and their dangers were lessened through his ministrations. Wherever he went, be it tn the untracked country of the treacherous Moro hill tribes or up and down the hundreds of miles of white, sterile corridors of hospitals which he helped establish. Dr. Heiser had one mission —to dispel ignorance of simple sanitation with the light of health education. He became
