Four years ago carpenters, paint- | ers, brick masons and contractbrs were looking for work. Now the people are looking for members ofj the building trades to work. The loyalists and revolters killed each other off over Labor day while in this country the death toll from auto accidents, airplanes and drownings exceeded 300. We don't need a war. President Roosevelt is in North Carolina today where he will deliver one of the principal addresses of the campaign. He is keeping in touch with every part of tb<* country and reporting to the people on conditions and explaining his urogram and hopes for the future. He is indeed a democratic and sincere man. The state police will conduct a safety school in Monroe next Monday for the school bus drivers of the county. Practices, common to safety and the best methods used in operating school buses will be shown by the police. Hauling children to school is an important task and we can't be too careful while doing the job. The congregation and Decatur as a whole is happy over the return of Rev. H. W. Franklin as pastor of tje United Brethren church in this city. Rev. Franklin is beginning his third year as pastor of the local church. He has been doing excellent work, is zealous and sincere and likes Decatur and its people. Republican national chairman Hamilton predicts that Maine will go Republican by at least 50.000 all down the line. The country can't fathom why Governor Landon is going to Maine on the eve of the election in that state unless he intends to lay claim to the apparent victory. Chances are that Maine, as in former years, will vote as usual, regardless of Landon’s visit and speech. The Indiana state fair set an all time attendance record Monday when approximately 100,000 persons visited the grounds and enjoyed the great show.

Cliff Townsend, head of the expo-| i sit lon stated, "the record attend unco i« evidence that the Indiana fair has become the greatest agricultural exhibit of its kind iu the United States." The first duy enrollment in the public and Catholic schools shows ' a decrease compared with a year ago. The number in school last year was 1.410. this year. 1,330. i No doubt there will be more by I the end of the week, but it does seem funny that with the town growing, every house occupied, that the number of school children i has due-reaped. Maybe we are getting old. Atty way families are I smaller, it seems. President Roosevelt is the only President who ever recognized the j women with high appointive office. Frances Perkins, as secretary ot labor, is serving as the first woman member of the cabinet. Other high offices held by women include ' Nellie Tuyloe Ross, direc tor of the U. S. Mint; Josephine Roche, assistant secretary of the treasury , and until recently Ruth Bryan Owen served as the first woman , ambassador. The President s in--1 terest in home-life is further proof of his sincerity and respect for the ; women. The Ball Brothers of Muncie an-; nounce another generous gift to Ball State Teachers College. A men's dormitory will be built as a memorial to Frank E. Ball, sou of Frank C.

The school is one of the best of its kind in the country. .
