Within a few weeks his play entitled ••Crusade," for which George Antheil ha 9 written the incidental but essential music will he presented in a German theater. The play which has already appeared in book form has received many flattering comments. The play which in German is called. "The United States, with Music”, is a satirical and poetical drama of American life. Lowenfel’s impending success in Berlin falls synchronous with the success of a volume of poems which has been published in England by the British firm of William Heinemann. Ltd., with a foreword by Humbert Wolfe. The erstwhile butter and egg man has at one coup achieved two envaible distinctions. He is the first American poet since Exra Pond to receive recog nition in the form of publication by a British publisher of repute. He is also the fit st to break into the German theater before production in America. Fit German Mood The play “Cruaide,’’ is in the mood of the best tendency in the German theater today. The Beggars Opera, produced in modern version by Brecht and Weil in Berlin is typical of this tendency. The authors have taken the old favorite, quickened its tempo', spiced it with jazz and incidental music and achieved the triumph of the Beilin season. George Antheil’s collaboration is in itself an achievement for a young author, Anthiel, who’s best; known for his super-ultra modern music, has written a great many songs of a popular, folk song type, of a simplicity and understandability far removed from the compositions with which his name is customarily associated. Among the songs is a new version of Cranky and Johnny. Lowenfels is in Paris now hut he expects to return to New York some time in September. His coveted ambition is to see his creations published in New York. CRAIGVILLE NEWS Mr. and Mrs. Homer Gehring and children spent Monday evening with Mr and Mrs Joel Gehring.

James Burk Describes Trip Through Stratforn
The following letter, from James Burk, Decatur Boy Scout attending the world jamboree, describes several of the trips he has made in connection with his visit at the Scout conclave: RANDOLPH HOTEL Oxford Aug. 14, 1929 Dear Mother: Everything is wonderful of course.! Yesterday we left the Jamboree, came to Stratford, then visited Shakespeare's old house and the Stratford country. We saw Shake's old oakentimbered chambers, his writing desk, etc., etc, adinfinitum. However, the most interesting of all to my mind was a visit to Warwick Castle. The grounds are larger than the city of Decatur. There are beautiful lawns and gardens, and 1 could count eight large live peacocks strutting - around and greening themselves on the castle walls and in the garden. Inside the fortress, which by the way, is surrounded by a moat and has a drawbridge, are various bayrooms, parlors, bedrooms and blue, lavender, etc., rooms, called color rooms. The walls of these are hung with rare tapestries and there are about (original, too) 500 paintings by Van Dyke, Reubens, Corat and others more famous whose names I can’t recall. The candelabras are rare hand-made Venetian crystal and there are many sil‘I OWE ALL MY NEW HEALTH TO FAMOUS KONJOLA' Happy Man Graphically Relates Amazing Experience With Super-Remedy; Says It Was Firs 4 t 0 Help Him ■St ■< -w- .£ A - ***’ Was First to Help Him “After looking for a long time for the right medicine I found it in Koniola,” said Mr. Andrew R. Kosaris, 577 1-2 Hohman street, Hammond, Indiana. "I was run down in general, my bowels were functioning improperly and my stomach gave considerable trouble. The result of these ailments was the shattering of my nerves. I was on edge all the time and was very irritable. “Then Konjola was recommended to me. In a week’s time after starting with this amazing medicine I could eat anything. My nerves are calm and settled, and my bowels work naturally every day. I owe all my new health to Konjola and I recommend to all who suffer as I did.” Konjola is sold in Decatur, Ind., at Smith, Yager & Falk drug store and by all the leading druggists throughout this entire section.
ver inlaid mahogany bureaus and chests by Buhl, also the armory room where all the types of arms, armor, knights' suits of mail, swords, pistols, blunderbusses, helmets, and every kind of ancient weapon were hung; also old collections of damasks, porcelain, daring to the eleventli century; china and everything so wonderfully genuine; Chippendale tallies and chairs, etc. Even the atmosphere was dark and musty, and as you walked down the chilly stone wall road up to the castle, you could nearly hear the clink of mail as a proud knight rode up to the castle to court a princess or to deliver a challenge of war. It was marvelous. Then we went to Shattery and saw Ann Hathaway’s cottage. It is a darling thing with a thatched roof and beautiful garden. Then we stayed all night in Birmingham. The hotel was the best in the city; fine it was, we each had a bed and big rooms, two people to. a room: bath, etc. Today we have come to Oxford and I will write you as 1 wait for dinner here. Love to all. JIM
