As you know II seldom write any kind of endorsement of our lecturers, but when one so completely captivates our audience ' as Lowrey did three times in succession, it is a pleasure for me to heartily endorse him.’' , A musical program will precede 1 die lecture. The high 'school girls' ( ehorus will sing and there will be piano duets by Ethel Smith, Zelda ’ Snitz, Reba Quinn and Lillian Rice. 1 A double surprise parly, the honored . ones being Mrs. Will Parent, whose 1 birthday anniversary was last week, s ( and Mrs. Charles Pennington, whose i , birthday was Tuesday, was one of last evening's pleasant events. The affair was a very unique one, being given at 1 the Crystal theater, of which Mr. Par- ' ent is proprietor, the party coming just 1 ' after the last show at the theater. Mrs.' Parent, who is one of the doorkeepers at the Crystal, always remains to see ' . the films, which are run again for her I benefit, after the regular spectators ' are dismissed. While the congregation i was dispersing and just as the lights' were turned out for this last extra run ' the party of thirty of Mesdames Par- 1 ent and Pennington’s friends rushed into the theater. The aid of Mr. Pennington had been enlisted in carrying out the surprise on his wife and he ' had taken her to the theater, being there just at the critical time. Both of the celebrants were surprised in- *' deed, the surprise being one of the 1 most complete ever carried out. A so- : eial time was enjoyed, and as the surprisers brought with them a luncheon, even including hot coffee, th«' ( affair, though given in a most uncon- i ventional place, did not lack the lux-, uries of the home. The friends of the two ladies presented them each with a handsome collar, which will be delightful mementoes of the happy tim». i Mrs. L. M.

Jan. 24-The Stokes Jackson boosters have all returned. tired, but happy. Every mo ' ther's son of them had the time of his life. The social features were varI led and many anu vegan when the long train of Pullmans left this city on j the evening of Sunday, the 15th, and . lasted until they returned. They were ( first welcomed in the national capital | by the Indiana delegation in congress. They were wined and dined, feasted, 'escorted all over the capitol building, introduced and made acquainted with 'congressmen, with senators and even 'shook the hand of President Taft, i Nothing was omitted and the three ,'t’ays there were pleasant and proflt- . |e. and will long live as an event . in the lives of the fifty-three who parI ticipated in the exciting events that are now recorded in life's history. It was not all play and no work. The . Indiana boosters worked early and i late and they made a favorable im--1 pression upon all those they met. They > not only were encouraged but they t were told outright that Indiana and ?’Stokes Jackson would be supported. , i These pledges came from all the ‘states where democratic congressmen were in evidence, and the gratifying j features of the campaign were the

many expressions of good will and 1 support that came from the south. ‘They are with us and it is the opinion of all that no sort of a deal can punc- i ture the boom that is now in full I blast for the Hon. Stokes Jackson of Indiana, candidate for sergeant-at-arms of the national house of congress. The election will take place i at the opening of congress the first Monday in December this year, unless the president in his wisdom would call a special session, and in that 1 event the election would take place at that time There is some sparring for points between some of the members of the , Indiana delegation In congress for the ' nomination for governor next year. Those mentioned as possibilities are Congressmen Adair, Barnhart, Moss and Boehne. Some of them are beginning to be active, while others are merely keeping their ears close to the ground and are hoping that the wheel of fortune will point the way. I While the entire delegation stands high in Washington, and many compliments were bestowed upon them, yet none is held in higher regard than is the distinguished congressman from the Eighth district. HiA boom for the nomination for governor is recognized as being the real thing, and it is popular opinion that he will make the boys go some when H come stime for the democrats of Indiana to select a standard bearer. Washington is a great city and be-

ing capital of the nasion makes it | more than interesting. Tourists from alt over this country, as well as every | other nation in the world can be foind there at nearly eva-y season- of the year. The touring season is now at its height. Congress being in session and all departments of the gow ermnent working on full time, makes it especially interesting. But there , is no use trying to give a descriptive account of historic Washngton. It has to be seen to be resized or appreciated, and we hope that some time every democrat reader can find the time , and the inclination to visit the nation s capital, and see for themselves 1 ths splendor and the nuppiificence of I the seat of our federal' government. After carefully looking it over it 1 was the opinion of the Indiana party, that the white house would prove a very comfortable home for the pres- • ent governor of Indiana. They wese 1 received by President Taft In the re- 1 s ceptlon room which is a part of the •> additions known aa his workshop and 9 since his becoming president. This i addition s knowa as his workshop and consists of office rooms, a reception room room or two and cost sixty-two I- thousand dollars. A visit was also >’ Paid to the east room, the blue room 5 and many other rooms and they are >■ sure good to look at, d , >• The festivities of the trip ended e with a banquet at Congress Hall, with ® the Hon. T. Taggart as host. It was a spread fit for the kings and everye body ate and drank—pluto—and had e the time of their lives. It was a most happy ending of a delightful three days, a time when John E. Lamb r took T. Taggart by the hand and was more than profuse in his congratula- , tlon9 ~a time when T, Taggart said

that he hoped to view th, |ural parole and that it w o ql7.’‘“’ od by the Hon.
