Woman Was Tamed Last, Says Durant "Woman is man's least domesticated animal and the last to be Civilized. Speech was the first step in the the history of man.'* With the statement of these beliefs, Dr. Durant concluded his address before members of the Women's Department Club Wednesday afternoon. Other steps in man's history were r he discovery of fire and light, making man independent of climate and master of light; transition from hunting to agriculture as mode of living; social organization and the final step of education. Durant looks toward the educated youth of America to smash the political corruption of United States. Universal education is in its infancy, but is becoming established, he said, and he looks to the day that democracy will not be defined as the vignt of all to be elected to office, but the right of all to make themselves fit for office, and that official positions in the country will be limited to those who have so made themselves fit. Nothing Is Lost Following his talk. Dr. Durant mentioned that a young man once had asked him whether he believed 'he beginning or end of his lecture. His reply was, "If one believes the end without the beginning he is a coward; if he believed the beginning without knowing the end, he is a fool.” "The pessimism that is prevalent in the country today,” according to Dr. Durant, “Is not the result of the economic depression, but of something more profound than loss of money—loss of hope. Therein lies rhe psychology of depressions during past years. “The question reoccurs: Has life meaning? Will our work lift man up? The answer is the most terrible problem in modern philosophy. "The entire social plane, the religion of America, rests in the belief that nothing is lost or will be lost. Man Must Progress "The twentieth century has seen the rise of science, the accumulation of the greatest wealth the world has known. It is impossible to doubt the reality of progress. “But is progress the replacing of field by cities; the building of office buildings to replace cathedrals; replacing beauty with power, and art with science? "We progress according to knowledge, intellect, ideas, but we behave according to instinct, feelings, emotions.” Durant believes that everything has progressed, but man, and in remaking the world, we forgot to remake ourselves. He spoke of history as a panorama of mortality, and the rise and fall of nations as a part of the theory s hat everything that goes up must ' ome down. Die to Carry On America is building civilization broader based than the world ever has known. Her educational opporunities and resources are broader based than civilization ever will know, he said. “It is largely true that everything that begins must cease to be: .speech, race, planet, solar system. "Let us not pin our hopes on endlessness,” Durant said. “It is not in the nature of things. As long as we think of ourselves as separate units, our pessimism will continue. Ve must die that others may live, •’1 carrv on with young, fresh vigor that we have begun. When we think of ourselves as parts of a v hole, then there will be no death.” Genius and achievement live forever. He said real history is not the history of the state, but the recording of steps from savagery to civilization, Those advances, once made, never are lost. MRS. J. W. CARR CIRCLE PRESIDENT Mrs. J. W.

ENDS DIGESTIVE ILLS QUICK AND GAINS 13 POUNDS

A

Food does not nourish when it i9 not properly digested. That’s why people who suffer from gas on stomach and bowels, belching, nausea, headaches, dizziness, etc., due to indigestion, often find themselves underweight, weak, with little energy and vitality. All this is quickly changed when you start using the simple discovery known as Pape’s Diapepsin. When people experience for tnemselves the amazing results of using these tasty tablets, they invariably feel compelled to tell others. Mrs. Relda J. Glenn, 7031 Zoeter Ave., Cleveland, Ohio, says: “I suffered for over two years with pain in my stomach, gas and headaches; trying all the time to get relief by using medicines and treatments. "Then I learned about Diapepsin and began using it. It has been a wonderful help to me. I eat pastries now without bad after-effects. How they used to make me suffer! "Friends that I have told about Diapepsin have been helped in the same way. I have gained thirteen pounds since starting on it.” All druggists sell it; or if you wish to try it before buying, write "Pape’s Diapepsin," Wheeling, W. Va., for a trial box, FREE.

THE INDIAWHPUUS TIMES

STATE BILL IS DRAFTED FOR JODINSURANCE Standard Plan to Call for Employers to Create Reserve Fund. A bill for unemployment insurance is being drafted by Charles Kettleborough, director of the legislative reference bureau, and will be introduced in the Indiana senate by Senator C. Oliver Holmes (Rep., Lake) the latter announced today. The bill is the standard plan for creation of unemployment reserve funds drawn up by the American Association for Labor Legislation. Since there is no labor commissioner in Indiana, however, administration will be put into the hands of the state industrial board, i Should the bill become a law, employers will contribute a small fired percentage of their pay rolls J to a fund which will be adminis- ; tered to furnish employes such benefits as the condition of the fund will permit, with a maximum limit set at $lO weekly.

Block Test Provided Employes are not required to contribute to the fund under the bill’s provisions, but they may do so and Increase the benefits. “The bill recognizes that it is essential to any system of unemployment benefits that there should be a work test,” Holmes explained. “It provides for the application of this test through employment offices, and it is to be expected that the operation of the plan will result in a reduction cf unemployment by fiu-nishing jobs instead of benefits, wherever possible.” Standard Measure Drafted “These unemployment crises can not be met by haphazard charity doles as we now are doing,” the senator asserted. “Permanent measures for prevention, with insurance against the contingency of unemployment, must be substituted for the present ' short-sighted relief policies which degrade the unemployed and produce no enduringly constructive results.” Members of the committee which drafted the standard measure, upon which the Holmes bill is based, were Loo Wolman and Sidney Hillan of the Amalgamated Clothing Workers of America; Bryce M. Stewart and Mary Gilson of the Industrial Relations Counselors, Inc.; John R. Commons of the University of Wisconsin; Morris E. Leeds of Leeds and Northrup Company, Philadelphia; Ernest G. Draper of Hills Brothers Company; George Soule of the labor Bureau, Inc.; Paul H. Douglas of the University of Chicago; Frances Perkins, industrial commissioner of New York; William Mack, Olga Halsey, John A. Fitch, Sir William Beveridge of England; Judge Bernard L. Shientag, and Joseph P. Chamberlain of Columbia university. CONTEMPT BILL FILED Measure Provides Special Judge tor Indirect Cases. Introduced by Representative John D. T. Bold (Dem., Vanderburgh), a bill providing that cases of indirect contempt of court be subject to trial before a special judge and not before the complaining judge, is in the criminal code committee.
