Attend the Townsend meeting at Fort Wayne this evening and hear Cliff's message to the people of In diana. He knows what he is talking about and will keep the faith. Primaries in Michigan, Massa chusetts and New Hampshire today will cause much specultaion and the results will be watched with thousands who expect as a result to figure the November election. Steel production has increased 338 per cent since Roosevelt became president, construction is 111%, hank deposits. 38%, stock prices 146%, exports are advanced i 42% and retail sales are up 72%. I Don't you think it wise to let well enough alone? September 23rd will be Soy Bean field day in TW-eatur and hundreds are expected to attend. A program of much interest to every farmer has been arranged, with the Central Soya Bean Company cooperating with the Purdue extension service. It should be a profitable and pleasant occasion. Now that the Maine election is over and the leaders have told us how Tt effects the November bat tie. it may be well for those who really take an interest in their government To get to work to see that prosperity continues and that the people have a chance to live in comfort and happiness. It's one thing to talk about discharging those who work for the. state and government, but quite another thing to do. Every one of these employes has a job to do and it is doubtful whether or not, the throwing out of employment, the men and women now at work, would be a sensible means of saving. The sugar beet campaign will open in a couple of weeks and the big mill here w ill start on a run of about three months. Every thing is in tip top shape for the opening and a successful season is anticipated. The beets look good and the sugar content is satisfactory, l according to the latest reports from the chemist department. CHANGE OF ADDRESS Subscribers are requested to give old and new address when ordering paper changed from 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.
See that you are registered prop t erly. II you have moved into a new precinct or If you have mar-i ril'd and thus changed your name or if you are a new voter, see the committeeman in your district and t see that your name is properly - recorded. Unless you do this, you will not be permitted to vote on . 1 election day. An unusual accident was that at I I Purdue when gasoline used to I wash tape from the players feet I of the football team, ignited from a pilot light on a heater, exploded, and killed one man and injured j several others. Carl Dahlback. regular guard on the team was the | victim to die outright while two or three others were reported in a serious condition. Democratic women of Adams County will meet at Lehman Park. Berne. Thursday evening for a pot luck supper, a good time and a talk by Mrs. Anna Glwdy, of LaGrange, district vice-chairman. The organization is one of the best in this part of the state and plans to take an active part in the campaign. If you are interested or are a mem- I ber, be sure to join the happy party. It is well to remember when making up your mind how you will vote, that the election of Governor Landon would mean a let down in affairs generally. Under no circumstances could he have a friend ly congress for the senate will be Democratic, even if every new member elected is a Republican, which of course is impossible. It would mean two to four years of a helpless, hopeless, do nothing ad ministration. I The city of Portland is planningj a Centennial celebration with a program very similar to the one; given here. Many will no doubt , , attend the event which opens the 27th and continues to October 3rd. 1 This is the last day of summer and the date when you are supposed I to toss your straw hat into the rubbish can, but of course until a cooler breeze comes along, no one j is going to razz you very much or hang on the old lid. The News-Sentinel is making a big “sqawk” because Mr. Townsend, as commissioner of agricul- i ture, in charge of the state fair, issued passes to a number of people. Just how many or to whom these were sent is not given out but what's the difference? The fact remains that there were 365,- • 000 paid admission;) this year, breaking all previous records and the fair was the most profitable and most successful ever given. Laugh that off. Household Scrapbook By Roberta Lee Stiff Shoes Shoes that are stiff after being • in the rain can be softened by first washing them in warm water, then rubbing either glycerine or castor, oil thoroughly into the leather. Match Economy Keep a small tin box on the gas 1 range to hold the burnt matches.l Oftentimes a burnt stick can be used to light another burner instead of using a fresh match. Cheese Economy Cheese that has heroine hard, and 1 unfit tor table use. can be grated and sprinkled on soup. o TWENTY YEARS AGO TODAY I From the Dai'y Democrat File 1 * 4.
