Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, everywhere, at any and all times. L Get your new tags and a driver's 1 license now. It will save you inconvenience -’and perhaps some I extra costs. Candidate?* are invited to use I the the Daily Democrat for their announcements. Thousands will read itThe stock market continues to flip-flop around uncertain. It's prob-, ‘ ably a to buy but it s | wiser to invest in Adams county < real estate. -Don't play the other I fellows game unless you want to gamble. Those wh<»rforget about the new parking ordinance will surely remember it after a few trips to the 1 city clerk s office. Hope you don't even have to w go the tirst time, but if you do, ju§t smile and make up i, your mind, you won't do it again. The merchant who advertises is simply inviting the people of his trading radius into his store and of course the more attractive he i makes that invitation, the more ' callers he will have. This is a . good season of the year to try it. After tweifty years of drougth I the state of Georgia will try it wet I fur a while. A county local option ' measure and* a bill providing for i package sales by private stores, | > have passed Uic legislature and the : governor says he will approve j them. We will give you the news, iof cally and slate, nationally and I t world, for an. entire year, a paper i each week day. for only three dolI lars, if you get it by mail within I a radius oT a hundred miles. . That’s a bargain we are sure you i will appreciate and enjoy. —■ If the groundhog saw his shadow yesterday h<£ had sharp eyes, so he will probably linger around and enjoy the mild weather- Don't depend on him, however, for usually I this prediction is as far off as the average one about the future temp- . eratures. All we really know is that at this season of the year, we may expect most any brand. The Republicans in the U. S. senate say they are for the antilynching bill but instead of voting for it, they do any thing they can to continue J.he filibuster so the Democratic majority cant get down to real business. In almost ! every case on this and other measures. the G. W. P. has acted like a • dumb "elephant" in obstructing i rather than constructing. No chance for relief there. This month, the 12th and the 22nd. we observe the birthdays of two of the greatest characters in history, Abraham Lincoln and George Wasfiington. They need no praise sos they have had volunnies of that- Each faced what seemed impossible and accomplished great achievements. What would have happened without I.
these two figures? Some' others might have tried and failed. • The point is they made good and though maligned at the time, have since , been recognized by all as great men who did groat 'things. i, , t — ; l The public health service lor the ■. United States, as the result of a 1 survey, declares that six million men, women and children are on 5 the sick list each day and unable jI to work. They estimate that > | 250,000,000 days are lost from work )I in homes, factories and schools , each year. If that is true, and ) they prove it is, what would we do if some one could find a cure for all our ailments’ These extra people added to our list of unemployment would sure provide another problem. The world certainly is topsy-turvy when we can thus conclude that its a "good thing that so many people are sick all the time. Herr Fritz Haver, chief of the Claypool hotel, Indianapolis, has checked February 19 on the calendar as his busiest day this year. His job that day will be to serve 1 2,300 persons attending the Indiana Democratic Editorial Association banquet. Chef Haver will begin preparing for the dinner days ahead. He estimates that it will take 1.200 pounds of steak, 25 bushels of potatoes. 500 pounds of shrimp, tio gallons of fruit salad and 115 gallons of coffee. For J more than ten years Fritz has pre- > pared food for the Claypool- He, learned the culinary art in the l famous Hotel Deutscherhof in Bremen. Germany, as a young man. Arrange to enjoy it. The city dads of Kalamazoo, Michigan, recently held an interesting little ceremony when they burned the last of the city's outstanding bonds, thereby making | theirs the only American city of more than 50,000 that is wholly j debt-free. Kalamazoo's thrift form-I ttla was started 20 years ago when it adopted the commission-manager plan. Its debt then was J 500.000. and 23 per cent of its budget went into debt service. The hew government put the city on a pay-as-you-go basis, raised taxes and Start-. ed retiring the debt. It borrowed no money, except in the lean year 1932 to meet relief. It practiced economy, but it didn't neglect needed improvements. Its city-owned light and water plants did their I shares. Pittsburgh Press. ——- ■ In 1922, there were six millions of people in the United States with incomes of $5,000 a year, or less, an aggregate of fifteen and a half billion of dollars. In 1929, there were only three millions with such ■ incomes, a total of only ten mil-1 lions- But in these same years i the number of those with incomes over $50,000 a year had jumped from 16,000 with a total of two bil-l lions to twice that number with a total of seven billions. Even these figures did not include the tax dodgers. Then came the real scarcity, the collapse of business. It came from the destruction of that only source of revenues for business, the purchasing power of the masses. That is one of the reasons the New Deal will forge ahead. There will be no retreat until the purchasing power of the people is raised to permit better standard of living for all, not the few. It is dedicated to this purpose. o 4 —4 Household Scrapbook By Roberta Lee i * * Bleaching Linens One of the easiest methods of ’ bleaching linen is by freezing. Thoroughly wet the yellow handkerchiefs. napkins, and other linen , articles, and hang them out until they have frozen stiff. They will r come in beautifully white and i smell fresh and sweet. I Candy Hints If the candy becomes grainy, add 1 half a teaspoon of cream of tartar • and a creamy texture will result. t Also, if a tablespoon of vinegar Is added to sugared candy, and it is reheated, a creamy texture will be I acquired. t 0 Trade la A Good Town — Decatur

Feb. 1iDaily Democrat:Am spending a few weeks here for my health and thought I would write to my friends through your paper. : iSt. Petersburg is situated on the southernmost point of the Pinnellas peninsula, 274 miles south of Jacksonville and 4t> feet above the sea ’eve! of Tampa Bay Fanned by soft winds from the gulf and bay, we] I enjoy the warmth at summer during the day with the nights cool and .pleasant. Almost every day is de-1 lightful and the purest artisian waiter is plentiful and delicious. No wonder physical well being rises to the highest mark here. It ie estimated that nine out of ten tourists choose St. Petersburg beiause of the big blue bay and rolling gulf Here are the scenes of warmth and beauty that dwellers in the frozen countries love ot .look at. When rou come here you are living right in the picture, a part of your world of dreams. There are but few days when you cannot enjoy the water The new million dollar pier of the .north beach extends 1.4U0 leet into the bay. providing for a trolley track and a 4-w drive and 15 ifoot walks on either side. In the may here is the finest .bathing bouse in ■ Florida, with hot, cold, salt and sulphur baths and up to date more | than 4,000 have registered this season. Governor Townsend of Indiana i fished here a couple of weeks ago. i No license is necessary to fish her a land the boats leave at al! hours, i usua'ly 10 or twelve go out and bring in two or three hundred pounds in an hour. It costs a dollar to go on one of the boats but you catch more f«h than you know I what to do with. They sell at the dock for 10c or three for a quarter. I One fish house here exports anI nually 2.500.000 .pounds of fish, prln- | cipally Spanish mackerel and mul- . let. The Florida state fair is on this j week at Tampa. I will spend a day and night here, going by bus across the six mile long bridge. St. Petersi burg has one ct the finest airports 'in Florida. This state has a large crop of oranges this year and they ' sei' on the street for 25c per half 1 bushel. This city is one of the first I cities to have an outdoor postoffice. ■ One newspaper gives its home edii tion free to every one, each day the sun doesn’t shine —hence its name -Sunshine City. j Its only a short drive from here ito Sarasota, winter quarters of ' Ringling Bros, and Barnum and Bailey circus. Florida is a fruit and I vegetable state and not agricultural ■like Indiana, but noted for tropical i trees and shrubbery and flowers. I Dale Moses has one cow that will | give more milk and butterfat in one I year titan all the cows from Jacksonville to St. Petersburg, 274 miles. > Stock yards and elevators are 'scarce here. Please bear in mind ithat the hundreds of thousands of I people who come south, do not take lup agriculture and dairying. They I come here to get away from that frigid zone of winter'blasts to relax ' from the toiling worries and to seek (health where the air is full of pine ! balsam and orange blossoms. We enjoy the salty air and I sit for hours watching the people go by. If you have been every where else and want to take one more chance, come to St. Petersburg. You will like it.
