Through newspaper advertising you can reach everyone, everywhere, at any and all times Lloyds of London, the world's greatest gamblers are betting four to one there will be no war in Europe and that’s one bet we hope they wm. The raius came a little late to ; hell) the corn and beet crop but , they will revive pasture and make the fields more tilable for the fall plowing. The new sidewalks being built under the WPA are real improvements and certainly an answer to those who think or declare that it's a great waste of money. Local housewives are again reminded that they can buy no better sugar than Crystal White, made right here in Decatur and what Decatur makes, makes Decatur. Another day or two and summer wiU be over. It has been a wood oral one from the standpoint ot temperature, crops are fair and there is much to be happy about. It certainly is an inspiration to see the many trucks hurrying through the city, carrying tons of sugar beets to be turned into tons of Crystal White Sugar, the finest made. Maine voted yesterday and the nation looked on with a smile, [ remembering how the old saying - “As Maine goes, so goes the Nation’’ was knocked gallywest two years ago. Tite days are growing shorter. and in another month dai km ss will come at six o'clock or before, a , considerable change over a few weeks ago when twilight continued until eight o’clock. You may get by in your business , by just going along in a routine way, but you do it much better by advertising, keeping your show windows well trimmed and your! store in tip top condition. The sootier the heads of Europe get the war hug out of their heads and settle down to the real bus- ‘ iuess of keeping their people happy, the better it will he for every one there, here and every where. WB ~~ ' I ». Get a ticket for the Women's > Democratic Club picnic at Lehman Park, Thursday evening. You will “ have a good time, meet a lot of l ’ fine people, hear some good talks , and help yourself in every way. j m Let's all pep up and do things. After all that's what makes a community move. As lone as an individual is listless he gets no where and does little. That’s true also of a community. The future looks bright. Be sure you are properly regist- • ered and ask the family. If you have moved into another precinct, changed your name or have not voted the past two years. Us necessary that you go to the county

| clerk's office and have your card J properly corrected. While the pre-primary poll# j showed Tydings strength In MaryI laud It alao showed that fifty-six Jper cent of the sutite voters were i for Roosevelt. It's a peculiar situ Nation that adds Interest to the great 11 economic battle now raging. It's time to buy fall goods and I the place to buy them is in your II i home stores. Read the advertisements in this paper froth day to day and take advantage of the offers. You can buy the best goods, guaranteed, at the lowest prices and it helps all around. The wage and hour law will be- ■ come effective the latter part of j next month and those who are not j familiar with it will benefit by in forming themselves. It provides i for a 44-hour week the first year with time and a half for over-time and fixes a minimum wage. Surely you will take the time to vote this year. It's an important I election and you should be happy that you have the right to thus aid j in the government of this great J democracy. You should see that | your registration card on file at the I i clerk’s office is in proper form. The condition of James Roosevelt, eldest son of President and j Mrs. Roosevelt, at the Mayo clinic, is reported splendid, good news! not only to his family and immed- j iate friends but to the country for . this young man has come to he re- j garded a real fellow with a brii-j ; limit future. This is an interesting imlilical week with primaries, conventions I and elections in ten states. After , all in most instances these are en- j tirely local and w hile the results j have an effect nationally they do ! not indicate results in November or tell you what will happen in I congress the next session. .TMttf* lie Voss of this city is a ! candidate for appellate judge and ■ | every one who knows of his sue- 1 I cesses through years of strict at- j tention to business, careful living j and fine citizenship, recognizes his fitness for the position to which he now aspires. He should re-: I ceive the unanimous support of the voters of Adams county. A crowd that packed and listened and cheered heard Hitler and 1 when he asked their support gave the “Hi Hitler ' salute, time after i time. They are filled with patriotj ism now hut we wonder if they are thinking of the terrors of war, > win or lose. It's a serious time tor Germany and for all others within the radius of the territory j in which the controversy rages. " The campaign is on, a little quiet j ! yet but gathering power. The first j meeting in Adams county will be the session of the Women's Democratic club at Berne Thursday i night. You are urged to be there. 1 Among the speakers will be Con- ‘ gressman Farley, Judge Huber M. DeVoss, candidate for judge of the appellate court and Frank Thompson of Biufflon, candidate for auditor of state. Some one started the report that High Commissioner Paul V. McNutt of the Philippines had been fired by President Roosevelt but! the former governor issues a state- 1 j ment that there has been no ex--1 change of cablegrams between hint i and the president concerning the ! nomination of Frederick Van Nuys and he knows of no difficulties between him and the administration. Just another fake card in the game of politics. In Huntington. Fort Wayne and ! other places where this man Cape- | hart used to reside, they are not enthusiastic about his leadership. A few years ago he was insolvent and many cannot help why one who has become a mil- • lionalre under the Roosevelt ad- ’ ministration would be now so

School Leader Pays TributeTo • Memory Os Late Boyd May

The death of Boyd May. 84-year- 1 old Dec.itur resident last week was keenly felt by citizens of the city and community. Although Boyd, as he was com-1 monly known, was not a prominent social or civic leader; although he j was not heralded as a business or , professional figure, he was Frit I- * niately known throughout ail j classes of the community’s population. First becoming known as a producer of horseradish, Boyd made his mark in the citys business! world by his own diligent efforts to succeed in his small business, i Later he started selling canteloupes and put forth as much effort in this enterprise as he had in the j first. His honest dealings and amiahle | nature had become widely known, among his prospective customers. , The yearly summer picture of Boyd, sitting on the courthouse j square selling his wares, will be remembered by many. Os all the persons who stopped to chat with the aged peddler, C. E. Striker, county school superintendent, was one probably more ' greatly affected by his sudden death. Mr. Striker, who in his own viciously attacking the leadership. You remember he is the fellow' who put on the fried chicken pic- 1 nlc the other day.

And leaning back he shook his head, : “I give you the best and If not satisfied—l'll give all the rest.” One day the Ruler of this universe. Too made his choice, and called Him from his easy chair. , To be with Him yonder over there. ! Ah, our neighbor and friend ! Thou hast taught to this end
