Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, everywhere, at any and all times. The school book lists have been published and the children are, scouting around checking up on l their supplies. Classes will be re-1 sinned next Tuesday and in another two weeks we all will have i forgotten that the vacation season | slipped away so quietly. The Indiana state fair opens. Saturday. In addition to the races and other attractions, new features ■ have been included in the weeks program and you’ll enjoy a trip around the grounds. If you seek a place to go for the Labor Day holiday, the state invites you to | visit your state fair. Indianapolis witnessed an up and shoot 'em affair the other morning, deputy sheriffs killing two armed bandits who tired on the officers as they approached the taxi in which the gunmen were riding. The deputies poured shots into the . car, the driver, an innocent party, escaped uninjured and none of the officers was injured. It doesn't pay to flout the law. The Daily Democrat is among those newspapers selected by the moving picture industry to carry the nation wide message to movie I goers. The advertisement appears in today's paper. Will Hays, director of the movie productions,; wisely selected daily newspapers to herald the value of entertainment, appreciating that the quickest and surest way to reach the homes was through the home paper. France has served notice that, she will go to war if Hitler in- 1 vades Czechoslovakia. No new notes will be sent to Berlin, but the nation's course outlined several months ago will be followed if Germany invades the Sudeten province. It appears imminent that Hitler will lead the Nazis on another march and if France comes to the aid of the invaded country, | it may be the beginning of a long war which in all probability will involve most of the nations over there. England will line up back of France and Italy may or may not follow Hitler. By virtue of the nefr law, the State Fire Marshal's office controls the building of service stations and bulk stations in Indiana. Where a state road passes the property, the locating of driveways and pumps is regulated by the fire marshal and the state highway commission. The law was passed to protect the public, and to establish a uniform system throughout the state. Inconvenience and costly changes I can be prevented by first having. the state tire marshal O. K. the building plans, locating of the pumps, conforming to private and public property lines and other rules which the tire marshal enforces.- ' - —l—= The Decatur school board worked out a budget, which provides for 1 • I

[operation of the school system, the paying of bonds and interest on [the new building und a little reserve to complete its equipment. The Increase is not large. It amounts to 12 cents on the SIOO 'or $1.20 per SI,OOO valuation. The bond levy had to be Increased in order to have sufficient funds In I July to pay the current bonds and' i interest and provide a balance for 1 I the payment in January, 1940. Our | ' school costs are not excessive and those in charge of the financial | affairs of the school city demon- , strated they wanted to keep the j budget at a minimum and at the , same time pay fixed charges and [ ■ finish the new building, as the pub- 1 i lie would wish. BANNER FISHING SEASON: The season for trout fishing in . Indiana will dose at midnight to-1 , night, ending what is said to have i been an unusually satisfactory 1 year in angling for their partleu- I lar variety. A number of large I trout have been captured, together ■ with limit catches. Not many years* , ago trout were little known in t ! Hoosierdom. The Department of : Conservation has been stocking I suitable lakes and streams and the results of this policy are now ap- * parent in the sport provided the I fraternity of fishermen. Other fish have multiplied in the I I last decade as a result of systemi atlc stocking of Hoosier waters. I Prior to that period, most lakes I and streams were largely “fished out.’’ Pollution of waters by poisonous by-products of some indus- * trial plants also had diminished ■ prospects. The state generally * was regarded as poor fishing territory, especially to those not fam- . iliar with local areas. Indiana waters now offer attractive opportunities for indulging in this time-honored sport. Heavy rains muddied many lakes and j streams during part of the season, but tbe supply of fish is more plen-j tit'ul than it has been for years. I ! Conservation officials have kept sportsmen informed of details in comprehensive bulletins describing conditions throughout the state. The age of miracles almost f might be expected with the recent opening of two lakes in Brown | county for fishing. Water pre- ' viottsly had been a rare commodity in that popular hill area. The lakes have been fed by springs and the supply of fish made avail- ; able by the conservation department has added to the attractive-■ , -.less of Brown county as a recre- [ at ion and sports mecca. — Indianapolis Star. EMPLOYMENT INCREASES: From every city in the state. [ comes the same reassuring news that more and more jobs are being I opened by private industry, that unemployment is decreasing and ; that the tide has been turned. , Buying power has been restored, j There will be a greater turn in i 'this direction when the govern-1 ment begins to distribute the funds appropriated by the last Congress, I a program so vast that it will turn ' loose torrents of money with which goods can be bought and distributed. In this state, few funds will be available until after September 15, on which date the plans tor state institutions will have been [ completed and approved. The. state funds are but a small part . of what has been done in cities and counties. In each city, needs were found, i New schools had long been need-1 ed. There were workers anxious; to build and equip them. But; these workers had been kept idle j by t? lack of money. The same thing was true of sewers and paved streets. Everywhere the problem was the same. It was the ■ rapid circulation of money. All ' that was needed was a start that j would open the avenues for every . trade and industry. The purchase of materials has ' . increased the demands for steel, for lumber, for cement. That i means more work in the plants : 1 which produce those commodities. I I

HOPE IT HOLDS OUT TILL NEXT GRADE! EtX * WM MS) J _ ir '- * ’ ■■ - /MB ... r • • •

So the expected happens. Men are being called back to work in all the trades. They are going back to steel plants. They are i going back into the retail stores ito care for the added trade. They [ are returning to cement plants. They are no longer demanding and receiving their unemployment insurance, which had been provided to care for the day when there would be no jobs. The cure for unemployment is jobs. The cure for poor business is more customers. More custom- ! ers come from increased buying powt r. Business men easily recognize the source of their new prosperity. o • « Modern Etiquette i By ROBERTA LEE | Q. What does it indicate when a man invariably refuses the table , selected by the head waiter, but parades around the dining room and j chooses some other table? A. It indicates two things; that tne man k rude, and that he craves [ being conspicuous. Os course, oc- : casionally. one is justified in comI plaining quietly, and asking for a : better, location.
