THE ACCEPTANCE SPEECH AN EDITORIAL APPRÄISAI

President ATilson'a speech of acceptance was comprehensive, frank and direct. It was the utterance of r :.ian and a political party conv.oits of the honesty of past endeavors and confident of ability to cope with whatever problems the future might have in store. jSTo President has ever been called upon to face mure serious conditions than has Mr. Wilson. He has met them with patience and devotion that have won the respect and admiration o,f ihe world. 4 With domestic legislation lo direct, giving the relief .from ccoJioiuic' abuses that the coup try's welfare demanded, with a loirr list of promises to fulfill, the gn .it war that burst upon the world threatened to check him in his dfTorts and to involve the nation in the disasters that are afilictiug almost every nation of the old world. How ho has brought the country through it all, with honor and with astounding prosperity, the acceptance speech succinctly and modestly tells. In three and a half years the country has been set aright, ever)' class protected in its liberties and its opportunities, the whole commercial system set in order, with prosperity abounding. And reason has never abandoned its throne in all of the .country's perplexities. The speech was a message to the people of all the world: it was a notice to the world that this country is big enough to maintain its honor and to keep out of war, and at the Hame time big enough to regulate its domestic conditions. The speech was no apology, no idefenpc, no complaint. It -was a .speech that all men and women ;shouid read to learn wliat the country has rcall been doing.

Big preparations are being made in this city for the part we will take in the Centennial cele bration at Huntingburg next Friday; the various organizations which will takep?rt in the parade and pageant are practicing every night and Jasper will make a good showing; the factoiies and business places will close that day and everybody will attend the celebration.

Here is a It t of what the peo-

dIq of our country spend for var

ious items; and its perusal can do

no harmFor liquor For tobacco For soft drinks For candy For chewing gum For books

These items outside of books

are not necessities yet we spend fortunes upon them and deny the schools and children with the necessary tools to carry on the school work. Is the contrast in the above figures not striking? We pay our peace officers greater salaries than we pay the teachers. If we had the best of schools there would be little need of peace officers. Preparations for the Centenlial work is going on daily. The various organizations are busy providing material and training the participants. The U and I go Club netted over thirty dollar.? by their box social held at the Uo'lege Campus last Thursday light Many students arrived the first of the week to enter Jasper College, wlvch opened Wednesday. The school has always enjoyed a good patronage and its strong faculty, commodious buildings and splendid play grounds are always strongly featured The first joint Common School Commencement of Hall, Marion and Harbison Townships will be held at Dubois, Sept. 23 Wm. E. Cox, of Jasper will deliver the Class Address There are 15 members in the Class. Riegling BrosTcoining This Way. World's Biggest Circus and Spectacle "Cinderella" Announced For Early Date. Announcement is maic that on Frilav, Sept J0 Rine'iPH Bros, eircas will give afternoon and night psilorman'ee at Fvansville. The fm u showmen are this Foaron presenting an all new and wonderful piosram. The tremendous fairyland spectacle, "Cinderella, " will appeal to both umnmiu'l old. More than 1000 nerpons tAktt tfcrt in it. It is easily the

lishers, like other business men,

do not do business fur nothing, neither are they in it for the pleasure it affords. Hence they fhey cannot afford to uive adver tisintf space for less than cost. Low rates may be taken as a possitive proof of equally small and comparatively valueless circulation. The business man who has a certain amount of money to spend in advertising should bear this in mind. In order to spend wisely

he needs choose well. It doesj not follow by any means that

because he can get a space for less money in ;one direction that there is wiera he can get the best advertising. On t'&e contrary it seldom happens so. This same business man might pay hair' a dollar for a dinner when he could get a dinner around the corner for fifteen cents, if he cared to. But there is a difference in the dinner which is worth the other thirty-five cents. There is just as much difference in advertising-
