Our idea of a high powered salesman is one who can sell threedollar season tickets for next year’s Chautauqua. It seems that the fame of the Hunter Brothers was greater while ther were up in the air than since they took to the stage. With money hard to get and many out of work it looks like someone would try to cop that s■>s,ooo reward offered for the capture of the murderer of Jake Lingle. Predictions about business con djtions will not help anyone get business. The public will buy when values are given and increasing savings accounts is proof that the lull may be only temporarily, the public waiting before it starts on another buying spree. If Attorney-General Ogden knows all this wicked stuff about an Indiana city, can name those who violate the prohibition law, why doesn't he prosecute the guilty ones? lie might call the grand jury to investigate, but if he passes 16 up, who else is going ahead? Isn't he the chief prosecutor in the sjate? Congressman Hogg, representative from the Twelfth district, made a statement in Washington the other day that his views on the prohibition question were well known to the voters hack home. He seems to be carrying water on both shoulders, which probably is the safest way for office holders to do just before an election.

Friends of Miss Esther Sellemeyer, estimable Decatur lady, who has devoted twelve years of her life in the missionary field in China, are glad to see her back home. Miss Sellemeyer, recognized as one of the able and sincere missionaries to the foreign field, is principal of a school in Shenchow, where the word of God and principles of civilization are taught. It's a noble work, with meager financial returns, entailing a life of unselfishness and hardships. To be a good missionary one must be born with the desire to serve humanity, to help make the world a better place to live and to bring those spiritual lights which after all bring solace and comfort to the soul. Miss Sellemeyer’s long service in the missionary field is fine to a degree, noble in execution and benevolent in nature and go to make up one of the finest lives in existence, that of serving others tor the glory of Him. 0 • « I Household Scrapbook , By I ROBERTA LEE ♦ • Linen Hang linen on the line so that the light falls on the warp threads which are the threads running the long way of the cloth.

Lcndqn, July 14.—The shining name of Colonel T. E. Lawrence, this prosaic, century’s most illustrious soldier of fortune, has just popped into news headlines once more. This amazing Englishman who during the World War led the Arabs in their successful revolt against Turkish rule is today reported heading the Kurdish bid for freedom against Lawrence's old enemies—the Turks. The brilliant danger-crammed career of Col. Lawrence is without parallel in modern history. His per-, sonality y shrouded in mystery and surrounded with the bright aura of romance, seems of the rare variety that would have won h'.m a prominent place in the legendary Round Table in King Arthur's day , when chivalry ruled the world. Romantic Figure This accomplished, scholarly and dauntless adventurer appears utterly out of tune with his times. One cannot reconcile the story ot liis life with an age ruled by machinery and the power brought by gold. Thomas Edward Lawrence is forty-one years old but he has lived through more dangers and accomplished more brilliant and valorous deeds than any contemporary figure. Educated at Oxford and a recognized archeologist authority he entered the British army in 1910 as a second lieutenant. One ot the great legends about Lawrence is that as a young man he read ten thousand books on all subjects and In half a dozen languages during two or three years. By lying on a specially constructed couch lie was able to assimilate the vast store of knowledge contained in those many volumes with the minimum of discomfort. During the war he rose rapidly . in the army ranks to lieutenant

— .TasaK. colonel. Sent to Arabia under Gen. Allenby, Lawrence disappeared one night into the desert and succeeded in organizing the ceaselessly quarreling Arab tribes against their masters, the Turks. After the war he emerged from this astounding adventure — the most talked-about and sought-after celebrity ot the war. Offered any gift within the 'English Government, the famous British D’Artagnan refused them all. Rebuked a King A book by Robert Graves tells how he went to Buckingham Palace 1 in Arabian costume and told King George to his face that his government had broken many promises of independence made to, the Arabs for fighting against the Turks. Graves wrote that Lawrence i threatened that he might soon be , fighting with the desert men I against his own country. This followed vain but spirited protests of unfair treatment tp the . Arabs, which he made at the Peace Conference. Years later Lawrence made the super gesture of an egotist by enlisting in the British air forces as plain aircraftsman Shaw. ' Apparently he wished to duplicate j; his remarkable feats in Arabia. ' | Since then lie has been reported in India and other parts of the ’ Orient fighting the Bolshevist movement. His book ‘Revolt in i the Desert” published some years ago created a sensation. It was first published in America in a first edition ot 22 copies, ten of which were placed on sale at the prohibitive price of $20,000 j a copy. This edition was called ' “Tlie Pillars of Wisdom" and con- ' tained an ampler account of his Arabian adventures than the pop- ’ ular edition issued. o | Mr. and Mrs. William Clark of Memphis, Tenn., arrived in this city - today to be the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Perry Short and family.
