Be a Real Booster. If you like the old town beat, Tell 'em so! If you’d have her lead the rest. Help her grow! When there’s anything to do Let the fellows count on you; You'll feel bully when it's through Don't you know. It you want to make a hit. Get a name! if the other fellow's it. Who's to blame? Spend your money in the town, Where you pull the sheckles down; Give the mail concern a frown— < That's the game! if you're used to giving knocks, Change the style! Throw bouquets instead of rocks t For a while. Let the other fellow roast; Shun him as you would a ghost; Meet his hammer with a boast And a smile. When a stranger from afar Comes along, i Tell him who and what you are — Make it strong Needn't flatter, never bluff: Tell the truth, for that's enough. Join the boosters—they're the stuff. We belong. Father Wilken Sends Five.

F->. Allen's First Love. Harvard. 111., Sept. 10, 1912. My Dear Mr. Qnian: —I find your kind invitation to your Home-coming awaiting me on my return home. I surely want to come! Decatur was my first pastorate, and truely my first love, and you know one never quite gets ever his first love. With many of your people I have joyed and sorrowed. We had our defeats and victories. There are two things in Decatur for which I have a grain of pride viz ; M. promotion of the Presbyter.an and library buildings. 1 think I had more than my share of kicks and cusses for these enterprises. I hope, however, time has vindicated my cause. Yes, I want to get back and shake w ith all the folks and tell them my hide is still thick an 1 my s-oma- h strong. I’d like to hear the old choir —Tobe, Lide, Jess. Em. Clark, etc . etc., sing "Rock of Ages," ar. 1 then rd l.ke to preach on "The Perse'.e ance c: Saints—and also the sinners. Then, I'd like to go down town and meet Judge Merryman, Dore birwin, Dave Smith, Clark Lutz, and the like, and preach to them the good. old. Simon-pure doctrine of “A Practical Tariff.” the kind that makes the wheels go around. I’m . sure I could make you old rock-ribbed democrats see the advantage of a high duty. I hope to be on the front seat when the band plays Yours as usual, M. ALLEN. Will Remain the Week. New Castle, Ind., Sept. 11, 1912. Mr. French Quinn: Dear Sir:—Replying to your letter of recent date, w ish to say I am planning to spend the week of the old home-coming in Decatur. Your letter re.«i with the greatest of pleasure.

Yours sincerely, MRS MARY C. TEMPLE. Sends Dollar to Aid Us. Mr. French Quinn.

"My heart. mT hopes are all for thee, My heart, my hopes, my prayers, my tears. My faith triumphant or my fears, Ar« all for thee, are all for thee." It was in Decatur where I began in tb * life nsurar.ee business, November, 1879, and I have been at it ever sin e. I have traded in every state in the Union and all of Canada, and I have made many friends among the “big fellows." It has been a great experience to me. I note the president of Old Home Week is F. M .Schirmeyer. The gentleman and I used to pitch flax together, and if my memory serves me correctly, be was a poor I

hand at it. Give him my best re-, gardi. Trusting you may be blessed; with a big attendance, and it la a regret that I cannot be present Very sincerely, HARRY C. NIBLOCK P. S—This city is not where the ‘ "Bui! Moose’ 'party was formed, but where it should die. o — THE BALL GAME. I When the local Shamrocks walk upon the diamond next Sunday they i will walk up to the hardest battle they i will perhaps be called upon » win ■i In this season’s work. The Lima league team, made up of salaried players, professionals If you like, are coming over to boost their average by, i what they think will be an easy t game But the boys here have a i slightly different idea and istend to demonstrate that Decatur still ha* some really good base ball players left Tom Railing, the invincible, will pitch for Lima, but the boys here say they can hit him. If they do, they win. Will you be there to sec It? FRIDAY THE THIRTEENTH Tomorrow is one of the few instan ces of Friday, The Thirteenth. Some superstitious people will begin to figure up from the first hours of the morning to the last of the evening, just how many miserable and unfortunate things will happen. Strange to say, you can always find them when you look for them Why not figure out how many good thing happen, and turn the tables on old Superstition. Mr. and Mrs. Chris Boknecht returned this morning from a most pleasant two weeks' visit with Mr. and Mrs. Lewis Boknecht, near Burt. North Dakota Mr. Boknecht was a former resident of Root township, where he served as trustee for some time, and was one of its most prominent residents. Three years ago he moved to North Dakota, where he purchased a large ranch on which he resides.and is making good in the west. The first two years the crops were not so very good in that vicinity, but this year has proven a wonderfully good harvest and the bumper crops of wheat, flax and other staples, delight the country. Mr. and Mrs. Chris Boknecht are doubly related to the Lewis Boknecht family, the husbands being brothers and the wives sisters, so their visit was of more than the usual mutual pleasure. The trip is quite a long one, Mr. and Mrs. Boknecht having left Burt Tues day morning, arriving here this morning on the 7:08 G. R. & I. train. SIDEWALK PETITION. Many en Monroe Street Object to Sidewalk Along the Curb. Petitions are being circulated by residents of West Monroe street, beI tween the railroad and Thirteenth j street, where the proposed bricking of I the street will be in order, asking that the sidewalks be left where they are instead of being built at the edge of the curb. Very many are signing the petitions, there being a few exceptions. A quiet wedding was solemnized Wednesday evening a: 7 o'clock at the St. Mary's Catholic parsonage by Father Wilken, when Leo Meyers, son of Mr. and Mrs. John Meyers, of ■ Fourth street, was wedded to Miss Anna Baker, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. t H. Baker, of Union township. The only attendants were tho groom's brother. Will Meyers, and the bride’s sister, Miss Elizabeth Baker. Both , the bride and her attendant wore very pretty tailored suits of dark blue, the bride wearing a tan hat. gloves and I shoes, and her maid, a white nat. Prior to the wedding, at 6 o'clock, a dinner was served for the couple at the home of the rroom's parents, guests being the groom’s brothers and • sisters and their families. Pink and white were the colors carried out in i the menu and dthe room decorations. ■ white wedding bells being suspended i over the table, and cut flowers and ; ferns contributing to the beauty. Imi mediately following the ceremony, a wedding feast and reception were given at the bride's parents’ home ’n Union township to a number of her immediate relatives. t Mr. and Mrs. Meyers will leave next Tuesday. September 17th, for Grand Rapids, Mich., where they will take , light housekeeping rooms for the coming year, when Mr. Meyers will con- , plete his third and last year in the i Grand Rapids Veterinary college, i graduating next spring. He has already had two years of the course, and during the past vacation had o]>a ened an office at Hoagland for praci- tice. Both represent two of the highr ly esteemed families of the county e and city, and many good wishes are d theirs. e Pt- The c»se of the State vs. Frank it Straub, the seventeen-year-old boy r- who, while in Louis Smith s room ovet o the gas office, shot out of the window y and wounded Lawrence Green, came r to trial at 2 o'clock Wednesday after

’ noon In 'Squire Stone's court. ; Straub was represented by bls at-. toniey, L. C. DeVoss, and made ap-, plication for a Jury trial. Policeman Melchl was sent out to find a jury, which was accomplished about 3 o'clock and the case went to trial.' The defense satisfied themselves in bringing forth whether or not the shooting was accidental, and the state used a theory of whether or not It was possible to shoot in the manner In which he did and do it accidentally. A large number of witnesses were called and used, and the case was argued by the attorneys, going to the jury about 5:30 o clock. The jury was out about forty-five minutes and brought in a verdict of not guilty, and t Straub was turned loose. Other , phases of the case will be gone Into later. o A DISASTROUS FIRE Swept City's Block Thirty Years Ago This Week. During this week falls the anniver-. sary of one of the most disastrous fires that the ally has experienced—that of the burning of the entire east side block of business buildings from Monroe to Madison streets. This was the evening of Sunday, September 12, at about 8 o’clock, and originated be-; tween the Burns harness shop which was then located on the site of the Peter Holthouse store, and the restaurant. L. C. Helm was employed in the Burns harness shop at that time, and remembers well the great period of disaster. The entire block was swept. The buildings were all frame except the Frank Miesse brick where the restaurant was located. Jtohn Joseph has returned from a business trip to Chicago, where he purchased a new fountain for the Sunshine parlors, operated by himself and partner, Ben Lang, comprising the firm of Joseph & Lang. The firm is a most progressive one and every few months sees the installation of the latest and best appliances in their line. The new soda fountain will be one of the most up to date in the city and has all the latest conveniences, including a self-charger. The front is< of marble with the finest trimmings, and will combine great beauty with convenience John T. Gillig qf Washington, D. C., an architect in the employ of the government, who is at home for a vacation visit, is engaged in drawing plans for the new front of the Blackburn building, occupied by The Enterprise Drug company, successors to the Page Blackburn drug store. Today is being generally observed by those of Jewish faith, as the Jewish New Year. Like all Jewish holidays it is reckoned from evening to evening, and its initial service was held on the evening of the eleventh. While, ow ing to the variance between the solar and lunar systems of calendation, it may appear to occur irregularly, as it is definitely set in the Jewish calendar as the first day of the seventh month.

The day is observed seriously and solemnly It emphasizes the sense o( Divine guidance and, at the same time, of human responsibility. The blowing of the trumpet, the Shofar or ram’s horn, is the peculiar service of the day. It is the bugle-call of the i Spirit, ariousing the conscience of the contemplation of misspent hours, and . -»waken’.ng the impulse to make ths new, coming year more fruitful of noi ble and unselfish action. i ] The observance of the day is beld • by several in this city, their stores be- ■ ing closed. I o Decatur and vincinity contributed many sight-seers to the Fort Wayne fair today, tb'j being the banner day. Every steam car, as well as all the I interurban cars were crowded with I passengers. It was impossible to get II a complete list, but among those at-1 . | tending were: I E. W. i u.ubleson, David Cook, N. | I H. McLain, I. G. Kerr, A. P.

Not less than five hundred people were taken to the Fort Wayne fair on the Decatur Interurban by noon today.

Mr. Padgett states that his * men's work here will be finished in about a week, when they will return to Toledo. They have been here since March Mrs Padgett accom-, ' panied her husband to Fort Wayne this afternoon. MR. CORSON IS A DEMOCRAT. Baldwin Corson and his son-in-law. ; Frank Coppess, were callers at this I office Wednesday evening, and denied in terms that were certainly emphat- | 1c the rumor that seems to have beI come general that they had joined the | bull moose party. They are consistent and thoroughly enthusiastic dem- : ocrats and ask us to state that anybody who says they are anything else ,' tell positive untruths. Take that and smoke it in your old pipe! WILL BE HERE. Charles Helm received a letter Tues1 day afternoon from J. L. Harmon, the grand master of the I. O. O. F. saying that he would be present at the district meeting and will give an address both at the regular lodge meeting in the afternoon and at the public meeting to be held in the evening All members of the local order must be present at lodge next Monday evening to work with the committee in > charge. GREAT IMPROVEMENT. A series of improvements on the building occupied by the Carroll grain elevator and coal yard, corner of Jes- . ferson and Second streets, greatly : beautifies this corner. The building . has been iepainted, a fin; high fence built as a screen about the coal yards. > All who contem'late a vis l ? to Fort Wayne, there to -r era day or I In th st city in whicn to sleep during i the quiet hours of the night, rake I heed. There are no beds in Fort - Ways'. i Mr. Jsadore Kalver has the honor , of discovering this fact, he having - gone to Fort Wayne Wednesday and , atter attending Jewish New Year ser- » vices in the evening, made efforts - tc secure a bed, or room ,n which to i stay during the night, not desiring to come home unless necessary to do so.

Imagine his surprise, when after two or three efforts, he found all the hotels fall. Continued efforts did not disclose any places in which to sleep, even all the furnished rooms being taken for the time being. In the finish he was obliged to return home m the interurban to go to bed. Other Decatur people had the same experience—no beds to be had. So, if you want to spend two or three days at the fair, make arrangements to return home each evening or maybe you will have to walk the streets all night. MOTOR COMPANY GOES UP. New York, N. Y„ Sept. 12—(Special to Daily Democrat) —Receivers were appointed in the district court today for the I nited States Motor company, alleging insolvency. The petition was filed by Brown & Sharpe of Providence, R. 1., who declared the company was unable to meet their obligations. The court appointed R. E. Strombe and Robert Walker as receivers, fixed their bond at 1150,000, and directed that they make a report to him of the condition of affairs by October 28th. The company controlled the Sampson, Brush, Columbia, Dayton and Maxwell care. boys must cut cigarettes. Stringent Rule to be Issued by State Superintendent of Instruction. Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 12 —(Special to Daily Democrat)—That a strin- • gent rule against boys’ smoking on public school grounds may be issued by the state superintendent of instruction on the advice of Dr. J. N. Hurty, state health commissioner, is expected here today as a result of an appeal received by him from Dr. E. M. Crouch, superintendent of schools at Edinburg, asKing what action school officials there may take to break up the practice among the boys. Dr. Crouch declared that the use of clgar-

» ettes was leaving several of the youths in the community practically mental wrecks. Dr. Hurty has replied to the appear, declaring that the only course of action was in passing stringent rules against smoking on school grounds and in starting a public agitation against the practice. It is said that a number of similar appeals have been received lately and that a concerted action against the use of cigarettes by school boys will probably result. ——- -- y— " " ’ SPECIAL LEAGUE PROGRAM Mrs. C.

Ths company played here last winter. If Young can be induced to come to Decatur we are sure that he will be able to create just as much of a sensation at this point as he Is creating in Ohio and Indiana cities. Judging by newspaper reports, the wonderful claims of the man are never left un proved. Many people believe that Young has a strange power of suggestion which causes people to have faith in hfs. and the peculiar discovery which he is demonstrating, and that it is by faith they are cured, and not by the leculiar power which they get from Young. This, however, Young denies, and he says that the thousands of remarkable cure which the Harshone root and herb discovery has made can be attributed to the scientific collection and proportion of the best curative roots, herbs and bai ks that can be found on earth. It appears that the discoveries made by an old German doctor, Philip Harsh, were a great help in formulating the scientific discovery with which Young is certainly accomplishing wonderful results. Efforts are now on foot to induce Young to come to Decatur, and all afflicted people who are trying to get well should sign the petition when it is brought around, so that it can be sent to Young as soon as possible. A very pleasant surprise was arranged for H. E. Butler in honor of his forty-second oirthday by his admiring relatives last night, and al«o in honor of his twentieth .<ceding anniversary which occurs on the same day.

Miller had as their guests today, Mrs. Wash Gilpin of Jonesboro, Ark., and Mrs. Alph Gentis and Miss Francile Lower. Homer Knodle will be initiated into the second degree of the Knights of Pythias at their regular meeting this evening.

Among those present was Mr. Carter, the state manager, from Indianaiiolis and the fifth degree was given to both The fifth, It is «aid, is some degree ( being known as the Mt.
