After the past few days of pel feet spring weather, some one ought to muxxle that weather man who predicts a cold spell. The war talk seems to be dimui taking, with some hopes that after all the preparations, the result will be just a dress parade. Some wise old bird has expressed it this way: "Advertising | is yeast, because it makes the dough raise m your cash register.'* Give sometl ing to the Boy Scout fund It's a tine cause and you ' can't possibly invest in any thing better for the boys of the com munity. The boohs in college who are eating gold fish mice and fish worms are receiving entirely too much publicity. They ought to invent home and ted on such a diet until they get enough of it to bring them to their senses. J. C. Campbell of Paducah. Ky„ ! should have the title of the mean eat mau on record. He solicited funds with which to pay the ex penscs of the burtal of bis child and kept the money. He got two years in prison when he plead guilty in court. Ry the way. have you attended to that little spring job of tax pay tog? Next Monday the gong will ring and if you haven't secured your receipt, you have no doubt j made up your mind to pay the penalty that goes with delinquency You still have plenty of time but ' don t wait until the last day unless you must. _________ Why should thia nation be so exercised about war? Many com mentatora have given their optn- ! ions but we haven’t found any yet that really gave any good reason* why we should even lie consider Ing it. <»f course we should pre pare for any defense that’s nereo-i vary but beyond, we are treading j dangerous ground. Indianapolis is cracking down on reckless drivers of cars and i those Who speed or fail to stop at the street Interact t lona that are marked are being fined heav ily and their licenses suspended Thia action should have been tak en there and every where else long ago It would have saved I many lives if then la any excuse j for fast driving over city streets, except on errands of mercy or as- 1 siatatice. no one has brought It for-' ward. Advertise tn the Dally Den-> cfat. It’s your home newspaper,! ready and anxious and always! happy u> -go to bat*' for any thing .that will improve conditions and help the community It reaches about fifteen thousand readers dally, has the lowest rate of any daily newspaper in this section •ad we kuc’- from many years experience la the business and

| contact with those who have judle loualy used advertising space. , that It has brought great results . Let's pull together for the general , benefit of the beet city aud county | in the < ountry. Nearly a thousand Adams conn--1 ty farmers, 791 to be exact, have . signed the Individual farm plana ' and will participate In the 19.19 I farm program of the AAA. Ry May Ist it Is expected thia list | will exceed l.Mfi. There arc many benefits and Winfred Gerke, county chairman, believes that every . farmer who will study the plans, will agree that it’s the best thing

i to do and a great aid to the average agriculturists You have a . few days to investigate and join jlf you desire to do so. At least assure yourself that you are right in staying out or else get to. A number of towns aud cities in northeastern Indiana will again turn the clock ahead an hour next Saturday at midnight, resuming , the summer schedule of daylight saving time. We have no serious objection to It except the fact that I it is not general aud your watch will be an hour off in the various places you visit. When a vote was taken several years ago. opinion j hero was about even, with thoae 1 "agin' it. having just a shade the • best of It. Now with several toe- ' lories and industries using the day i light schedule. It would be Interesting to know the general feeling. What do you say? Wo will I bs glad to publish your opinion. Congratulations Don Farr for the wonderful success you have made in the life insurance business Few have gone as far tn so short a time and yonr ninny friends here who have watched your progress with interest are delighted that your agents and their success in writing nearly a milliou and a half dollars worth of insurance in six weeks. It was a worthwhile ( achtevement aud we are sure you will always n member this blrthday as one of your most important. Mr. Farr is now vtce-pn-sideut and treasurer of his company. When Gov. M Clifford Townsend told the business men of South B. uu that Hi minions of dollars had been atlrailed to the state for more factories, he told the story of the present admintotrattau. the story of a fair tax system, the story of a good labor policy, ths story of schools and churches, t history of an Improved standard of . living. Factories art not placed in a state which has nothing to offer to workers. They’re not built in states which are honeycombed by graft and where busiMos la | v km (mind by those In power. They are built where people find living pleasant and where there i is every incentive to decent living I and where families can be built and reared Nature has lawn kind, but not kinder than to neighbor ing states, such aa Ohio, Illinois or Wisconsin. And yet when great national institutions build a MW factory, they turn to Indiana aa the best site. They would shun a state whl< h persistently robbed them by taxation It would avoid . • state which has no Interest In Its labor problems, but turns to the one which prefers to settle Ito strikes before they happen Indi- : ana Is committed to sane and progresslve policies. ** said the Governor. o- -
