The Chamber of Commerce directors and fair board are making every effort to give you a clean, wholesome fair with a lot ot entertainment. Wire and cable for the street lights for Fair Week are being put up and plans made to show visitors that thia is one of the best lighted cities In the country. Although the recent rain was destructive in some parts of the state, thia county was favored with an easy, soaking shower, which added thousand of dollars to the crops. It was a blessing. Stock market prices are going upward While most of us are not interested in Wall Street, the trend is a good omen for business, as It reflects confidence and increased business for the next six mouths Times are better. A headline In a trade journal reads Low Attendance Indicates N. Y. Worlds Fair Must Advertise. -Newspaper ads needed to off set bad publicity. That's the story of any event, a world s fair or a small street fair. I'nlvsa it is properly advertised. It flops The Louisiana invest tgat km is growing in scope and already 25 indictmbiiis have been returned against lax Smith, former president of the state university. Political leaders and others are scared since the federal men started to uncover things and another bomb shell may explode In old New Drleans before th>- mud play la made. Work has started on the beaut Iflcatloti of the grounds around the new high school building on Jefferson street The site la so prominent and the building so so majestic, that the landscaping of the grounds la just as Important aa the finishing touches were to the building. The thing to do is to include a few hundred dollars In the school budgel every year tor the purpose of carrying out the plan and make the entire square a place of beauty We read with interest a news dispatch from Alexandria. Indiana, telling of the cute of a young lady of that plate who having been a cripple for tn years, was now able to walk without the aid of crutchea. following a aeries of operations on her by a bone specialist, Imagine her Joy. Injured In chlldhood. the young woman went through school a cripple and was employed as a stenographer, getting about on crutches. The news Item staled she could walk now aa well as any normal person. it appears that neutrality legislation w||] g u over to the next

session of congress. The leaders . 'can't agree on the policy to be ' followed and the congressional 'committee on foreign affaire has decided to bring the proposed bill ito a vote. It la Important that 1 I thia country take the right steps Itn dealing with foreign nations ' We do not want to get ourselves Into a war or create a cause for lone and feel that the sincere dis I cuaslon which Is going on in the I halls of congress and the suggestions made by President Roosevelt I will eventually result in the right > policy to follow.

Governor Dick-, I inson Is an ardent prohibitionist ‘ ' and Sunday school teacher and be- | Moves that the younger folk should not be exposed to the evils of big | cities and what he calls "high society" circles. One thing about the 80-year-old executive, he Isn't afraid to voice his opinions and personal convictions. He continues to teach his Sunday school and [the lesson of temperance, despite I action for his recall. ——— The Fort Wayne Chamber of, j Commerce thinks it has a problem . all Its own because there are no I | vacant factory buildings in the' city to offer prospective industry., That sounds like a good condition. I The same thing exists in Decatur. It is better to have the buildings occupied and running than have a ' dosen bleak, forsaken structures, which In their Idleness might offer an Invitation to someone to start I a factory Decatur's factories are , booming and there is not a vacant site, except the tile plant in the whole city and we would feel better if that industry got going and I eliminated the only Idle spot in the industry area. Fort Wayne can consider itself lucky. Good ' industries that come to a town | will generally build their own plants and in our opinion it would l»- economic folly to construct places with the hope of getting mouse trap factories to occupy them. Numbers alone do not count. Tin- romance of science has disclosed another development affect- < lug the well-being of the general public.
