HOUSE PASSED CIGARETTE BILL
Makes Amendment Permitting Minors to Sell Them But Against Law to Smoke Them. The house passed the cigarette bill Friday. Only one amendment of importance , was made and that makes it possible for minors to sell them. The argument in favor of this amendment was that minors were often employed in tobacco stores, drugstores, restaurants and other places, where tobacco was handled and that they should not be handicapped by not being allowed to sell an article to any person who was legally entitled to buy it. Governor. Ralston will doubtless sign the bill arid, th?O all minors will have to stop smoking the “pills” or be punished for their conduct; The house Friday passed the .10hour law, providing that women cannot be required to work more week. Thi swill affect women workweek. This will effect women working in factories, stores, offices, telephone exchanges, etc. A measure was also passed appointing a com-, mission for the investigation of the working conditions of women in the state. The commission, of course, will work under pay, and this will mean a few more jobs to give out. The senate passed two road bills. One provides that all road tax in excess of *s2o shal be paid in cash instead of being worked out. The other road bill provides for a county superintendent of roads. It embodies suggestions made by forme? Representative John G. Brpwn, of Monon. The superintendent is appointed by the county commissioners and has charge of construction of new roads and of repair work. The Gettysburg anniversary measure passed the senate, having previously passed the house. It provides that an appropriation of $20,000 be made to take Gettysburg survivors to the fiftieth anniversary of the battle, in July. The commission handling the job is authorized to take any number of citizens “to make a proper showing”in ease there are not enough survivors of the battle who wish to make the trip. Old soldiers generally are apt to get a chance within the provisions of the appropriation. Governor Ralston is already seeking names of Gettysburg survivors They are asked to send their names to the office of the adjutant-general in the statehouse. After the Traylor liquor bill had passed the senate Thursday, having previously passed the house, it was found that it did not contain an enacting clause. The measure permits saloons to keep open on New Year’s Day, Lincoln’s birthday, Washington’s birthday and Labor Day. John R. Ward, of Monticello, for years one of the shrewd lobbyists for the liquor interests, was constantly laboring for the measure in the senate and the house. He was assisted by Joseph E. Bell and Carl E. Wood, two lobbyists who helped defeat county option. Persons who read Speaker Cook’s speech following his election will wonder what has become of his nervy declaration that lobbyists would not be permitted in the state house. It is not “known whether the Trayfor bill will become a law or not, although until the discovery of the missing enacting clause the liquor interests were rejoicing.

NEW HIGH SCHOOL FORMALLY DEDICATED
, (Continued from Page One.)
the loyal support the public had given when it acquiesced in the plans of the board to erect a new and modern high schbdl. His talk was very interesting and instructive. *
Superintendent Clark stated that this was the first opportunity he had had of talking to a public gathering of school patrons and he read a well prepared address filled with many practical suggestions of modern school methods and which doubtless made every person who heard it rest assured that our schools are under able control. Edgar O. Holland, superintendent of the schools of Louisville, Ky., and for two years after his graduation from college a teacher in the Rensselaer high school, was introduced to the audience and talked for a little more than half, an hour. He spoke of the difficulties he had experienced in getting an education, and said he was glad that he had been compelled to get it by hard work. He said: “You have a good building here, but it is not the building alone that will educate your children, and it is not the teachers alone that will accomplish this end, but it is the power that you give them by getting behind them and giving them encouragement. That is what will count.” Later in impressing the audience with the fact that it is not wealth that constitutes success or the quality that makes for the greatest good, Mr. Holland said: “I doubt if there is a person here who could tell who the wealthiest man was during the period of Plato; I know I could not: I doubt even if they could name the wealthiest man during the time Shakespeare lived; I could not. You might know who is the wealthiest man in Chicago, but even if you did, you would not accord him a place over the men who are actual factors in an effort to make for civic improvement. And the histories of the future will have but little if anything about the men of wealth, but will'accord a place to those whose works have been based upon helpfulness to alj mankind.” Mr. Holland’s address was a plain talk with many practical, advisory', arid encouraging suggestions for pupils and grown-ups. He held in bold relief the fact that labor is the basis of success and that one must forget self in striving for results for the world’s betterment. His address met warm approbation with all who heard it. Following the dismissal of the dedicatory service Mr. Holland was met by a large number of his old friends, many of whom were scholars during the time he taught here some sixteen years ago. The class rooms, office, manual training rooms and gymnasium were thrown open and patrons were shown about the building, finding many things of interest. In the gymnasium puncp and wafers were served, the pupils being very watchful in assisting the visitors. The meeting was in every manner a complete success and certainly all who were there came away with just pride in our public schools, and great satisfaction in the supervision of the teachers. It will prove interesting in this connection, we are sure, to read something about the position Prof. Holland is holding in Louisville, where he is the city superintendent of all the schools. There are a total of 27,000 pupils in the schools and. a corps of 700 teachers. Five thousand of the pupils are colored and one hundred of the teachers are colored. There are four large high schools. One of these is for girls, and has an attendance of 1,500. At the head of this school is another foiiner Rensselaer teacher, Prof. Ohio L. Reid, who has also made a fine success and is climbing the ladder in education work. Mr. Reid’s wife was Miss Hellen Kelley, for many years a resident of Rensselaer. Superintendent Holland is still a bachelor. He remarked to a friend while here that he had always been so busy that he had never had the time to get married. Mr. Williams, president of the school board, made a suggestion in the course of his remarks that we believe should be adopted. It proposed that hereafter a big meeting of this sort be held annually, at which the public be familiarized with the school work, with the teachers and equipment of the schools. There is much to commend this plan and we believe it can be adopted with profit to the educational advancement of the city.

A WOMAN’S VIEW OF OUR LEGISLATORS
Thinks Care of Babies Would Be Better Investment Than Pictores of the Members. Starke County Republican. The fact that the Indiana legislature appropriated $2,500 to have the biographies and photographs of the members thereof printed In book form, and at the same time turned down a request to appropriate a sum of money sufficient to print of circulate a booklet on “The Care of Babies,” is causing a storm of indignation to sweep over the state. About the best article we have read in condemnation of the act is written by Mrs. 8. E. Boys, of Plymouth. Herewith is that lady’s opinion:
A photo of a state legislator vs. the life of a Hoosier baby! How would the ordinary citizen compare values? '• ■ _ Evidently our state representatives place a much higher estimate on the former, judging by their recent action in appropriating $2,500 for printing a book containing pictures and biographs of themselves, while they actually refused to make an appropriation of $3,500 asked by the state board of health for the printing of a little book for mothers on the care of babies. Even the care of the jack rabbit takes precedence over the care of our own offspring, in the minds of these wise solons of Indiana, for they at the same time made an appropriation of $2,500 for the printing of a book on game and its preservation. No up-to-date farmer would think of raising hogs without the aid of bulletins furnished at state expense. There are more modern methods and later findings of science on the care of swine, and it is worth while that every agriculturist should know them. There are also better ways, safer ways of raising babies, of caring for eyes to prevent blindness, of nursing so as to make strong babies instead of weaklings, of feeding so as to escape the fatalities of the dreaded second summer. But it is not worth while, i. e„ not worth money, that the mothers of Indiana should know these things. Let the babies die, one in four. We shall preserve our game in this noble state. Let the babies sicken and perish of preventable diseases. And when Rachel is mourning for her children, present her for comfort a book containing biographies and photographs of our state lawmakers. The pictures of great men are always inspiring. Of course, if Indiana were rich enough we might profitably have all three of these books referred to, but in our poverty it is the height of wisdom to choose the most important, the one which will be of most lasting benefit, saving not? only this generation, but laying stronger foundations upon which to build the next; to choose the book which will be prized by the largest number of people, since we, the people, pay the bills. Our legislative friends who refuse the ballot to us mothers say that our place is in the home, rearing children; and now they deny us the means of informing ourselves on this vocation which we most cheerfully accept, though not without longing for the ballot in circumstances such as these. In lieu of this knowledge which we crave they hand us a book on the preservation of game, or, still more to the point, one containing photographs of themselves.

CENTRAL CHARITY PLAN TAKES FORM
Ministers and Others Adopt First Step to Organise on United Charities Basis. ' r ; -J - -3 At the office of Mayor Meyers Fri* day afternoon about fifteen gathered to discuss the proposition of organizing the charities of the city under a general head, and the plan seemed to meet entire approval, as we feel certain it will with the general public, when the organization that was planned is perfected and has been given a thorough test. The Republican has, during various occasions for several years, expressed the belief that the charities of this city should be handled from a central body, and we are pleased that steps have been taken to assure this end. . The plan proposed was that one member of the board shall be chosen from each of the churches of the city and one chosen by the city council making six, and that these six shall select three more, making A committee of nine, to be known as the executive ..committee of the United Charities of Rensselaer. It is proposed that this, committee shall have charge of all contributions for purposes of charity Rensselaer. While this would not exclude the passing of subscription papers, it would render them unnecessary and the effort would discourage any method of that son unless it had the endorsement of the association. There will be another meeting held at the mayor's office next Tuesday afternoon at 1:30 o’clock to complete the organization.
