Tomorrow another big campaign opens—and it’s a sweet one—sugar , making. Ou the field tonight you'll see the Yellow Jackets. Visit Worth man Field and enjoy the game. The American Legion will hold its 1938 convention in Los Angeles. If you travel to their convention cities you'll see the country. We don't wish to discourage youth, but someone remarked, "It never occurs to a boy of eighteen that someday he will be as dumb as his father." Closter. New Jersey has ambitions. At least it is hopeful. It wants to entertain the Legionnaires in 1976. About that time a town of 2,500 can furnish hotel accommodations for the boys Although the summer was cool, about 12,000 registrations w’ere made at the city swimming pool during the past three months. The children enjoyed the pool and the place offered healthful recreation. President Roosevelt is on his trip to the west coast. No president ever kept better informed on the country's thought and general condition 'than the present occupant of the White House. He believes in seeing the country and conversing with the people. The little Indianapolis girl who lead the city's delegation in the New York American Legion parade, attracted about ‘as much at-, tention as the generals and well groomed officers. She strutted her stuff and received a big cheer. A little child shall lead them, they say. America wants peace and President Roosevelt is guiding the Nation along this course. He hates war. So do the millions of Amer leans. We do not want to be dragged in the Japanese-Chinese conflict and chances are that Japan will some day suffer more than it gains by its present invasion. The Japs, numbering about 65 millions, cannot conquer 140 million Chinese. Following rumors and charges that gambling was going on, Judge' Hinchman has closed the well-ad-vertised Plantation Club and casino, located just beyond the Marion county line in Hancock county.

The building of new houses in Decatur continues, a halt dozen or more being under construction. It will be several years before the deI niund is supplied us every day this newspaper office has calls for houses and apartments. Keep building in Decatur. It is one of the best places on earth in which |to live, values are good and the ' town is growing, which is an asi surance that employment can be 1 had. The famous Columbia Club in Indianapolis, one of the ritzy places jin the Hoosier capital, can't be ■ suported any longer from the patronage of Republicans and the proposal has been made to turn the place into a hotel or non-political organization. It seems that the proponents of the movement want Democratic money, even if its members can't have the public jobs. Why not turn it into an old I folk's home? Over in our neighboring city of Bluffton, one of its disinguished sons, Will R. Barr, has contributed another leaf to his tine record of public service as chairman of the Wells County centennial celebration. Mr. Barr has a reputation for effective leadership and doing things well. His sincerity is always noted and his natural ability makes the programs and disposal of details incident thereto, all the more successful. He and his committee members can feel proud of the program given this week in observance of the county's one hundredth birthday. Four years ago Dale W. McMillen and his associates were planning for the first year run of the Central , Sugar Company under their ownership and management. On the eve of the fourth campaign, we think backward for a few minutes and recall that at that time the big mill was silent, had not been operated for two years and everybody in Adams county wondered if it ever would be a bee hive of activity again. The past three years have seen a wider and more progressive expansion of the industry than the fondest dreams could depict. It must be wonderful to be able to bring about such worthy achievement. Decatur and Adams county are mighty proud of the industry, the only one of its kind in Hoosierdom and join in extending good wishes to all. We hope the beet crop is all that the farmers expect and that the financial returns make it the most profitable harvest of any crop raised in this area. o Answers To Test Questions Below are the answers to the | Test Questions printed • | on Page Twer 1.
