Van Wert merchants are putting on trade days this week with special bargains and a program of free acts that is attracting large crowds. It pays to be on your toes. Decatur is going forward, make no mistake about that. Plans are in the making for continued improvements and we will all have to hustle to keep up with the parade. The first snow of the year came early yesterday morfiing and early risers found the ground covered with a white mantle that made them think of Santa Claus and Christmas. Children on bicycles should use the greatest care all the time, remembering their danger and remembering too that the pedestrians have first rights to the use of sidewalks. There is a certain coolness in the air this year that indicates the winter will be colder on the average than it was last year. Hope it isn't one of those like we had two years ago. The w'abash dredge case goes back to Judge Kister but it will be some time before all the legal tangles are unraveled. Right usually wins and we believe eventually that will result in this important matter. The new school building will be a real addition and every one is going to be proud of it. The preliminaries will soon be out of the way and actual work on constiUclion should start within the next sixty to ninety days. Too much legislation is not a good thing for business and we certainly have had a lot of it the past few years but it seems necessary to complete a program tor the people and wise ones'will stay with the administration. President Roosevelt is for peace and not for war and says so, but he believes the way to have peace is to work for it, rather than sit idly by and watch war envelope the world. Sound, sensible and fair people will agree with him. When ever an individual announces he is the "law'' and that he is going to prove it, get. ready CHANGE OF ADDRESS Subscribers are requested to give old and new address when ordering paper changed from bne 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. I

for his exit. Al Brsdy boasted he would make Dillinger and other public enemies. No. I in their day. look like pikers. He met the end of all who thus disturb society. The natural gas will no doubt be a decided improvement but the change caused some real inconveniences, including the holding up i of work at this office, delaying publication and causing us to omit much of the news. Regulation of the new burners should be complete In a short time and every one will be happy. Mr. Hoover, in charge of the jrrlmlnal investigation department for the government and his assist-, ants, are doing and have done a wonderful job in cleaning up the gangsters. They ask cooperation ot every good citizen in their battle to rid the nation of its bad men and lower the crime record which has been costing this country some fifteen billion dollars a year. Congressman Ludlow will be busy when congress convenes, for besides his numerous duties on important committees he will lead a movement to prevent this nation going to war without a referendum vote of the people. With Mr. Ludlow, this is the most important matter in congress and he is a real figther for the things he believes in. Hallow'een will be observed here the night of October 29th with a big parade that will please you and ! entertain you. There will be bands I and freak make ups and all sorts of goblins. Bring the children and enjoy the occasion. It is an an- ■ nual event given by the Decatur I Chamber of Commerce just to show those of this trading radius that we appreciate their business. Kansas City has made a record that they may feel proud of. A campaign to prevent the killing of children has been so successful that during the past year, not a single child has been killed by automobile traffic in that city of half a million population. The average in the United States is one child each twenty-seven days. It can be done. Dalhover. one of the Brady gangsters, says he wishes the Gmen had got him when they killed his pals and he is no doubt in earnest about that wish. He will be closely guarded and given a quick trial, with the result almost 'certain to be the extreme penalty. We can imagine no worse punishment than sitting in a cell waiting ] tor the fateful day and wondering about it and the hereafter. The two dollar bill is passing | out of circulation, according to re-1 ports from the U. S. treasury. I There are now only $33,000,000 go- j ing the rounds as compared to $62,000,000 eight years ago. The 1 reason is that many people believe they bring bad luck and refuse to accept them. It's foolish of course but you can't change the super-1 stitious. Our advice is that if you can figure any way to get hold of a million of them, better grab. The special session of, congress will not be as exciting as some of the G. O. P. writers would have you think. It will be more a term for the law makers for getting ready for the regular session which convenes in January There is some legislation of great importance to the people that must be 1 considered and President Roosevelt will put it up to the members. If thev decide to turn him down they will answer to the people in next year's election, who after all will decide whether they wish to go on I with the program to better conditions for the average man. o - ARRIVALS Mr. and Mrs. Norbert W.

Thus is accelerated the collapse of Japan's economic and currency structure." Soong expressed strong resentment of Japanese charges that men like himhelf were not supporting the bond issue here.
