Your gross income tax report must be in the mails by tonight. If you have overlooked that, better hustle. The mornings are a little snappy but it's fine October weather, seasonable and healthy, so there's nothing to complain about. President Roosevelt is for peace not for war but he believes the way to have peace is to plan for it and he proposes to do that. The Methodist church of Bluffton will observe their Centennial next month, the exact date and complete plans to be arranged by a committee recently named. Winter approaches. A flock of wild geese quacked over the city and headed southward and the old timers believe that's a sure sign of a tough, cold season just ahead. The long trail of the Brady gang from Indiana to the east coast is over and these three Hoosier lads, who had a chance to go straight but didn't, have proven again that the cost of crime is death or its equivalent. While there is such a thiirg as too much legislation it is no doubt necessary to go on with the fight to make this a better land in which to live. It should be done without greater expenditures and without new or increased taxes. That will please the public. Boys and their parents, sisters and sweethearts can all have a good time Hallow een by engaging in the Calithumpian parade. It's a lot of fun with prizes for the winners. Plan to be in Decatur on Monday evening. November Ist, either t!> help make the parade better or to enjoy it from the side lines. Dalhover. the one member of the Brady gang probably wishes he had met their fate. Ahead of him is months in jail, a trial for murder and then more days and nights awaiting his fate if he gets (the limit. He will suffer much more than did Brady and Shaffer, for whom it was all over In a minute or two after they entered the trap at Bangor. Maine. C. J. Lutz, receiver for the Old Adams County Bank reports that he has on hand hundreds of checks ranging from a few cents to 3900. this money being due depositors who have so far failed to call for same. It's funny that in the bleak days a few years ago when ‘‘runs'' on banks were common, folks were wild W their rush to get their funds out. Now many who have money •eoming fail to call for same. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt, first lady of the land, will speak at the Shrine auditorium on November 17th. She is a marvelous woman, one “ST the most active in the world and has a manner of saying thinga that impress her listenersShe Viii be given a genuine welcasejSß her visit to this section of the country and a delegation

from Adams county will be there to hear her. Reserve your tickets now. Natural gas is being installed today to take the place of the artificial gas which has been used! hero for years. The uew fuel is stronger and it is up to each user to be careful until adjustments are ■ made so you know just how to | handle it. This is not to frighten 1 you for those who remember the ' old natural gas day. will tell you 1 that it is more convenient and satisfactory than the artificial, but to ask every one to cooperate so 1 that no accidents occur. A special session of congress for November 15th has been called by President Roosevelt, the main purpose of which is to con-| sider plans that will create a fixed price for farmer's crops that | will prevent four cent cotton and thirty cent wheat, to reorganize the executive branch of the government so that important things ] can be accomplished and to enact 1 'anti-monopoly legislation. All of I these matters are important and. it is to be hoped the members of congress wftl give earnest and hottest consideration to them instead of playing politics persona! or otherwise. Mr. Roosevelt is con I tinuing his fight for the people. — Expenses which include various' taxes, print paper, ink, every thing that goes into the publishing of a : daily paper has been on the increase the past' two years. Toi meet that every publisher is try-, ing to adjust rates so that the paper may continue to serve the community Rest assured we will continue to give"you the very best: we can at the lowest possible cost I and we ask your continued sup-. port in the future as in the past, j The White Sox took the Cubs again, winning yesterday's tinal game by a 6-to-l score but it required the full seven-game series | to settle the Chicago city championship. So that settles all the disputes of the fans in the middle west until the season reopens next April. The Decatur city council has approved the $50,000 bond issue to assist the school city in financing the new high school building. The government grant of SIIO,OOO was allowed some two weeks ago and to take advantage of that the remaining fifty-five per cent must be arranged for locally. This is now complete and the work will proceed. The old central grade building will be torn down and the new one erected there. It is to be modern in every respect. When finished this will provide the room for high school while the present high school at Adams and Fifth will be used for grades. The Riley building will be taken down, having been condemned by state authorities while th' south and north ward school houses will be put in condition to continue for the next several years at least. This will give Decatur an excellent school ' plant and is a splendid step ahead. Congratulations to the mem- . bers of the council, to the school • board and to all others who have and will continue to aid in this necessary and long desired improvement.
