Only about a month for tall tax paying, a job none ot ns like but which if met soon, will be easier tor us and for those officiate who are <barged with the responsibility ot collecting. football will realty get under way Saturday when Purdu<- aud Notre Dame and Indiana aud Nebraska clash for a get-away that will give the tans some idea o< the stsengtb ot the Hoosier elev- j can. Monroe Democrats will meet tonight to select candidates tor the November election. Three councilmen aud a clerk-treasurer will be named and the boys are going to get busy on an interesting local campaign. Al Smith, who no mu- will contend has been friendly to the present national administration, will speak Sunday evening in support of the presidents effort to change ; the present laws to make them really neutral so we can stay out of war. The world series will open next Wednesday in New York City and the nation will almost cease work while the games are in progress These events are the beat medicine in the world to relax those who have worries, whether they be petty or big. What's the use to guess aa to I who will win the war? So tar as history divulges even the victors of previous affair* ot this kind kind have been loser. So since no one can really win at war excepting perhaps temporarily, why bother guessing? The min census as to popula-1 lion will be taken during next April, it has been announced. The census ot business aud matiutacturing will start In Jauuary and it's a big job that will require employment ot a couple of hundred thousand men and women over the j country. Decatur s two high school year-i books, Havel tugs and Tattler, have been accorded brat class honors by the National B<holaatl< Press Aaao<lution. deserving recognition for excellent work hi this Inter-! eetiug bold of school activities i We congratulate the staffs anti their advisors.

I from Chicago the past several ! several days. the national convcnIlion of the Amerlian Legion was ‘ a real success. Homething like a •' hundred thousand attended and when that number ot vets get toI 'gather, we know there is going to be a lot of fun and business 1 _ —————— II Plana are being made for the 1 annual roll call In Adams county I ‘ for the American lied Cross with lithe hope aud belief that It will be 1 ' the most successful In many J years. With the war agitation on. i there la grave need for thia body I of good men and women who each II i year render so much good service They take care of many dlaasters I each year. David Hogg who served as congressman from the fourth district several terms and was defeated twice by James I. Farley. Is a; landldate tor the Republican noml- > nation for governor of Indiana He will bud it difficult to get the genuine support of leaders in his own county where Mayor Uaals ..nd Attorney Douglass also have' their eyes on the honor. We beltane strongly in the free-1 dom of America but we doubt if[ that ran be stretched by the wild j est Imagination to include those societies and organisations who propose to destroy our present ‘ form of government. If there be I any such tn Indiana, they should I* immediately dispersed. Let s | heap this a friendly and happy j country tn preference to a faction* al and war Inclined nation. The second annual bicycle carni-1 ■ val will be held here October 19th. at whhh time, a local organisation supported by tbe state police, will instruct school children and others how to help in tbe campaign to reduce the number of accidents that occur each year to those who enjoy this mode of travel Last year the carnival attracted attention all over this state a.id it is planned to make this oue even j more effective While government bonds are not •is high as a tew weeks ago. municipal and other issues are going up. This is a natural baromrtor of better times tor when private and local funds are being expended the bond market is al- j ways affected. As a result the I rate of interest tor the teuid issue here will be higher than if the sale could have been held prior to • j the change in the market, percep- , t ibly changed when Europe went to war. Mr. Ford says that only twentylive people are back of the W bat it would be difficult to ton- | vinca the thousands who have been 1 shelled by torpedo boats or otherwise have felt the direct horrors of war that so few could cause them so mu<h grief and suffering. ' While we debi t believe the war {Should lie discussed tn an excited! * manner, we do feel that it's wise 1 j to keep posted and bo on the alert that we may do those tblnga which prevent us being entangled. As-1 'ter our experiences of twenty I years ago wc ought to be smart . enough to steer around the bogeys. It tea difficult thing to estimate •ba length of aud the result of tbe , greut European war because of I j the lack of authentic news and tke difference In opinion of the commentators and ot others who speak . lor write on the aubjeoL The I strength of the German army, the doubt that surrounds the moveI turn la of Russia, the apparent InI roads cm the western front, the Possibility of attacks Hi rough neutral nations, all make It a 1 jiuxsle that we can only guess al 1 and one fellow's guess is good as . another WS- can only wait for punitive moves in tbe p, m e that involves the world. The city council has authorised the issuance- of 33tm.<Hie of Imnds with which to build a new city power plant. The indebtedness
