The cooking school is free and we feel it worth your time. Please go and enjoy it. The football season is off with a bang and tor the next three months that will be the sport of sports in this country. The thermometer crawled up to nearly ninety last week, indicating that summer did not close the middle of September as the calendars provided. Martha Raye is able to entertain millions of picture fans but evidently wasn't a bit funny to her husband. Any way they now have a divorce and can flirt with each other If they feel like it. Did you watch the bride wake up this afternoon? Well, you can tomorrow and next day but don't miss it. A great picture show, a good time, a lot of fun, numerous surprises, recipes and souvenirs. ■“— Mr. Justice Black made a brave effort to change black to white and back again but his success seems to be somewhat doubtful, judging from the variance of opinions as expressed editorially and otherwise. Congratulations to Judge James T. Merryman who recently passed his eighty-third birthday and is going strong. If he continues to keep busy, he is good for another score of years. And we’re all for him. By police order, children under sixteen are not permitted to ride the scooter bikes which have become so popular the last few days. That's the law and the action is taken to protect the children who might be seriously injured it some unforeseen accident should occur. Business has increased 'here to the extent that the Pennsylvania railroad had to provide an assistant yard master. J. L. Fletcher was sent here from Cincinnati to do the job. The railroad boys all admit this is the best shipping point between Pittsburgh and Chicago. There is nothing like a soldier's reunion. It's the getting together of men who risked their lives side by side, who fought the common enemy and who love to talk the old days over. They had a tine time doing it here Saturday and many of the men met comrades whom they hadn't seen in years. It was a happy occasion. 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..

We are pleased with the interest | manifest in the cooking school by the young ladles of the home economic classes in various schools of the county. Hundreds from the city and over the county are planning ■ to attend and we hope they enjoy . it and that they gain many new ideas from the school presented 'I by the modern method of the film. The accident prevention committee is urging that the one hour parking plan recently agreed upon be arranged and enforced as soon as possible. The longer we postpone this action, the greater chances we are taking on accidents, serious or otherwise. It seems needless for these committees to work at their job unless their suggestions are to be tried. Senator Ashurst of Arizona is the wise boy. When they tried to interview him on the Justice Black address he told them that he had only read the headlines, never listened to the radio, didn't have any l opinion on the controversy and would have none. The average statesman probably has sufficient troubles of his own without trying to carry the other fellows. Rev. Edgar L. Jones of Warren, former Decatur resident, delivered the sermon at the laying of the corner stone tor the M. E. church improvements at Monroe yesterday, an able address that inspired i his listeners. He was reared and ! educated here and became one of the outstanding pastors of northern Indiana, for several years being in charge of the Old People's Home at Warren. On every hand we hear com- . ments of good will for the action 1 of the school board and the city, council in steps towards building; a new school house in this city.! The work will start soon and it is I expected will go on right through the winter as under the federal | | grant, the building must Ire completed within nine month*. That will mean there must be no loss of . time and those hi charge will do their best to meet the requirements. One gets the impression when looking over the foods and articles now being successfully made from soy beaus that the time may come when that's the only thing that will have to be grown. Soyburger takes the place of hamburger now, soy milk they claim is purer than cow or goat milk, they make steering wheels, breakfast foods, about everything about au automobile but tne gasoline and the research continues. It's really a great and coming business. ■ i The boys of the 139th got together Saturday and talked over the days of 1917 and 1918. Preeminent of course were those of Company A which went from here. Great days those, when the company was being recruited, sworn 1 in. drilled and prepared for camp service and thrilling were the departures of the men as they marched >o the stations to board trains, with the sobs and cheers of their friends and admirers, the music of bands and the roar of war excitement. It's fine that they can meet annually to talk over those inspiring days and the months that followed, that they may tell their children and the world that war does not accomplish any thing that could not otherwise be settled and to advise against it except in defense of the country and its people. Doctor Os State In Annua!

What is really the best test of a family's breeding, by which a guest can determine, whether the family is worth cultivating? A. Probably the real test is the etiquette of the children, it a child I stands at hiß chair at the table 1 until the adults are seated, if he waits until the guest is served before he begins to eat, if he doesn’t Jump up from the table and run away, if he doesn't interrupt a conversation. it reflects goM breeding.

(U.R) — When Postmaster Marvin Drake found the interior of his office disturbed and a screen torn off a window,' he reported an attempted robbery.

RAIL EMPLOYES | GUN INCREASE ! ] Wage Increase Halts Threatened NationWide Strike Chicago. Oct. 4—(U.RF Two hurt-1 | dred and fifty thousand railrot d | employes rejoiced today with a wage increase which will bring them 41 cents more a day and' which removed necessity for their | contemplated nation-wide strike. Operating employes of the "Big ‘ Five" brotherhoods — engineers.' firemen, enginemen, conductors. [ trainmen and switchmen —demand-j ed a flat 20 per cent wage increase.i and threatened to strike if they 1 didn t get it. Railroads refused. Dr. William M. Leiserson. member of the national mediation board, announced last night that after two months’ negotiations carriers had offered aud employes accepted a raise which will increase their annual income 6.6 per cent. The increase affects the five brotherhoods of operating employes on 86 class 1 railroads. It is retroactive to Oct. 1. Leiserson said the compromise will increase railroad payrolls $35,000,000 annually. 11. A. Enochs, chairman of the carriers' conference committee, estimated |40,- < 000,000. Carriers contended the ! originally-demanded 30 per cent in-. crease would have required $116.-1 000,000 a year. "Both parties are to be congratulated ou following the orderly processes of the railway labor act," Leiserson said, "instead of engag-. I ing in strike talk and setting, strike dates which would have an 1 unsetting effect on an already j troubled business situation." Non-operating employes — pracj tically all those not included, in I operating brotherhoods — previous-1 ly had accepted a five cent hourly I increase, in settlement of their demand for 20 rents more perl hour. I Rising living costs and the postdepression evolution of stream lined and high-speed trains figured, laigely in negotiations between I operating employes aud the roads. Employes contended the present day operating methods were more exacting in their requirements, i more productive of strain aud I fatigue. Carriers replied that op- , crating employes' earnings increasI ed automatically as train I increased. Brotherhood representatives cited the increased productivity of modern-high speed operating methods, and railroads replied this increased productivity resulted from increased expenditures by carriers. o ■ 4, —— - ♦ , | Memorial Hospital Adams County j Admitted Sunday: Andrew JackIson, Ke-nton; George Daw»ou.
