If ( you are in doubt about how- to. vote, ask some one for instructions. You can avoid confusion and ! take no chance on losing your vote by -marking in the circle containinguhe fboster. Decatur refuses to be whipped and the best indication of it is the splendid response that is being made for the factory fund. Over the $9,000 mark and going strong on the Krick-Tyndall fund. We must complete the campaign by the end of next week. We must not lose out on this. Shine are claiming the state for the Democrats by a majority of 200.000. That is probably too high a guess but shows the confidence of the leaders and it's a certainty they are not that far off. The state teachers association had no major legislative problems for its membership to consider. None was suggested by any teacher. This is about as high a compliment as could be wished from the present state administration of school affairs. The election boards have been named, the ballots are ready for distribution to the inspectors, all details for holding the election are being completed. All you have to do is to go to the polls and cast your vote. Don't miss the oppor- 1 tuwity to vote. Business is on the upgrade according to reports from every source, from big and little business men. from Republicans and Democrats and the next year promises to be one of the best in history. There's a reason—the officials have | worked at their jobs, ably and honestly. Only four more days until election. Remember that the important part of this election is thatl tire Democratic administrations have been working hard for you. that conditions be improved and that life be made more pleasant. Don't stop now when the battle is nearly won. Those who attended the Democratic rally at Fort Wayne last evening were impressed with the enthusiasm and the confidence shown and expressed. The speaker was Daniel C. Roper, secretary of commerce, who made a great address, directed particularly to business and to business men. Eight hundred ballots were declared mutilated last spring in the primary. No doubt many will be lost this fall unless you use the greatest care. If you want to be sure of your vote, make a mark in th* circle and let it go at that. If you feel you must split, be sure to-understand just how to do that without mutilating your ballot.
The Delta Theta Tan has subscribed fifty dollars to the factory fund, a flue gesture for a good ' cause. The return to work of a hundred men is so important that we feel every group, organ’xatlon and individual can well afford to i show their interest as substan-1 | tially as has been done by this sorority and by numerous others. Congressman Farley is continuing his campaign although It Is being generally conceded his election is assured. He has represent|ed the district the past six years and with credit. He stands high in the administration at Washing: ton. has done much for the fourth , district and can continue to do so. Why any one would wish to change the picture is difficult to understand. You owe him your support [ next Tuesday. The campaign is dosing and next Tuesday it will be up to you. i Use your best judgment in selecting those who will serve you best, i Sentiment may be a fine thing but . i 1 remember you are employing public officials to conduct your bus-, iness. The Democratic adminis- ■ tration has made good. In this 1 city and county there has not even j been an attack upon the conduct i of public affairs. Let's keep the ’ good work g. Hallo Ween is over and the boys and girls who seemed to get pleas-1 ure from marking windows and ■ cars should recognize that fact. They have been fine this year and deserve praise for enjoying the I occasion in a clean manner, rather than in a destructive way. We I noticed several downtown windows |' have been marked after they were - I cleaned the morning following the i big celebration. That means labor | and expense for some one and will not be tolerated by the police. The Cliff Townsend plan has put nearly $30,000,000 in the state treasury, and Indiana is without a dollar of bonded indebtedness, has Kept the schools open and the ' school teachers paid, has given Indiana the best and safest banks ! in the country with $150,000,000 more deposits than rn 1932, has attracted more than $100,000,000 wor'h of new factories to Indiana. The Cliff Townsend plan has made Indiana the No. 1 state in the Union in finances, schools, parks, social security and unemployment | , insurance. To the many citizens who have I faith in President Roosevelt and Governor Townsend, the majority must not be merely a safe re-elec-I tion of the forces which stand with them and beffind them, but so emi phatic that none may mistake its j meaning. They must be given a new mandate to proceed and not retreat from the great causes they advocate and represent. The ques- ■ I tion is as old as history and as ; new as the tomorrows. It is the time-aged contest between those | who believe in human rights against the rule of dollars. So | j make no mistake about your bal- ! lot. It is important in the great battle that is now going on in this i country to protect what has been ! won from the forces which would turn backward, to give Ihe loaders of the New Deal courage and new f#ith. In this mighty contest, don't be a cipher. Be a part of what . may determine the entire future of this nation. There must be no retreat, no surrender.

PARENTS, CHILDREN AND SEX — Are you, Mother, Father, confronted with the difficult problem ! of satisfying the natural curiosity of your youngsters about the facts I of sex? Do you feel competent to discuss such problems with your ! children? Or are you just taking the easiest way and "hush. ; hushing!" them? Recognizing the woeful lack of clean, comprehensive, scientific information on the facts of sex, and the difficulties faced by grownups in discussing such problems with their children of ail ages, our Washington Service Bureau has prepared a 24 page booklet SEX INSTRUCTION, that contains a frank discussion of the scifintifie facts of sex in simple English for the instruction of parents, and their children.

EX-UPONE MIN IS FOUND SHOT Former Capone Lieutenant Found Dying Os Wounds Hammond. Ind.. Nov. 3 (UP) V. alter Leonard. 35. Chicago, ono-' j time Capone gang lieutenant, was j found dying in his automobile in la residential district early today. | Police said he apparently had been I i taken on a gankland "ride." He had been shot in the jaw and the back of the head. A physician ;at St. Margaret's hospital raid hn had little chance to live. A resident of the neighborhood found him. He was propped behind the steering wheel. One bullet, fir-j ed from inside the automobile, had ' pierced the windshield. Police Capt. Sandor singer said undoubtedly had been shot at some isolated spot and driven I to the place where he was found. "The killers must have thought he was dead when they left him." i Singer said. “We haven’t found any , witnesses who saw them drive up ; to the spot." He said he had found two suitcases in the automobile, bearing stickers from hotels in Tucson, Ariz., and St. Joseph. Mich Leonard had a lengthy police rec- ‘ ord. He was a salesman for the gang headed by scarface Al Capone during prohibition. He was questioned in 1932 In conI nection with the slaying of a Chicago speakeasy proprietor and was released. In 1933 he was tried and acquited by a federal jury on a 1 liquor law violation. Storekeepers who testified against him said he had forved them to buy liquor for ; him. “He told me," one witness testitied, "That he was stronger than the police, the state and the presi- ■ , dent of the United States.” There have been 11 gang slayings ’ lin the Chicago area in the past five 1 I months. Several of the victims were | ’ former Capone men. None of tha slayings has been solved. —o— Tr*,lr In A«; .n* Town — Oecnlnv --I ■ VOTE FOR i T.
