A larger lint means more business tor every one here and a better | situation generally. The Ashing season opens Friday of thia week in Indiana and a lot of the fellows who get a real thrill out of booking a live-pound baas will be at the lakes tor the startoff. Attend the hand concert tonight at the east side of the high school building. The school band with 115 pieces and one ot the best in the state, will provide you a delightful hour. Fred Bays, state chairman, will attend the conventimi to be held i by the New Deal Democratic dub at Lakeside Park. Fort Wayne. Friday evening. Those who attend are promised a good time. The Daily Democrat will Issue a special fair edition aud we iuvite every merchant, professional inan and citisen to preasnt his compliments and his invitation to the people, through this medium. Business continues to improve over tbs country and there is a better cooperation between business aud the government that portends a continued increase iu retail business. A little mote pep will help. The cold wave Is not unusual. Remember about twenty years ago on June 16th when a heavy frost laid the corn and other crops low? The weatherman will make up for it with some hundred in the shade temperatures soon. Kill the bugs in your garden Now is the time to head them off and unless you do. according to the state entomologist, they will eat up everything green. The mild winters have increased the crop of chiggers and other pests ot the yard. Relief claims will continue to Increase until the pendulum swings the other way which will probably come when the burden reaches the point where it hurts. Os course those In need must have assistance but It should not be given to those who waste it. if there be such. Order an advertisement in the speclsl edition of the Dully Democrat tn be published a few days before the opening of the big event, sent all over the country aud made attractive with the official program and other information the people will want.
The 1383 street fair will be the best in years, according to those who are planning IL The crowds will bo largo and the entertain ment mirth while. It's up to the merchants to take advantage of this big opportunity to at least Invite them into your store. If they don't buy then they may drop In the urat week or ao. Help boost the local country club and make the golf course, as it used to be, one of the most popular in the country. It's a natural course and with proper cars will provide much pleasure and healthy exercise. It s an attraction that helps any community and thia splendid set-up should not be permitted to go out of existence. The storm season is here and in various sections around ua the wmd did thousands ot dollars worth of damage Saturday night. At Bryan and Hicksville. Ohio, the loss was large and in the latter city one woman waa killed when a tree tell on the automobile in which she was sitting. The work of clear ing away the debris is now in progress and the communities where the storm struck will soon be free ; of wreckage. ■ Every product used on the con-' st rue turn of state highways must be tested aud approved by the de- ! partment In Indianapolis. This in- ' eludes oil, sand, stone, emulsion and every thing used to construct ■ la first class road, it has saved! the state millions of dollars tor It ; prevents any thing but the best being used. The rejection of a car of emulsion has caused a few days delay in improving Monroe* street but when it is done, it will be right, which is what the publkwauts. The king and queen liked every thing they saw aud tasted and j met up with iu the United Stites, including the hot dogs. They ate them aud enjoyed them and drank pop just like ordinary folks. They spent four days in this country aud left with the kind wishes of .our people. Os course they didn't see the best part of the country., the middle west, but perhaps may return at some future time for this treat, but they saw enough of America to convince them that it's a real country with genuine cllisens. This city seems to be the target for a lot of peddlers who canvas from house to house aud who cry their wares up aud down the streets. We do not have Information as to whether or not they are required to pay license or whether they are violating auy ordinance but u, course whatever they sell takes away from the local merchant who operates at a high overhead and is entitled to the business. Whether its legal or mh for those who traffic iu goods tor the home, it's winer for ail ot ua | to buy from the home merchant, j "Whatever the merit ot the President's address, his appearance before an organisation ot small storekeepers. hI s manner, his language, his tone of voice and especially his concluding remarks., set forth a picture which should be cherished by every American as an example of how an elected official ought to repsimd to the request of voters for an explanation ot his official conduct. Roosevelt was the complete antithesis ot a dictator. He came, he said. 'Not in the spirit of criticism, but with a simple plea for your assistance as American cltisens in working out our common problems with good-will and with the maintenance of the Ideals of peace." — Jersey City Journey.
