SCHOOLS TO START CENTENNIAL WORK
Plaaa to Make Every Schoolhouse In Goaty Center of Interesting Local History Study. Centennial Notes. At a recent meeting of those interested in the centennial celebration in Jasper couty for 1916 it was decided that the schools should start the work. In order to proceed in some organized way a temporary organisation has been appointed consisting of the superintendents of the schools of Jasper county, Remington, Wheatfield, DeiMotte, Rensselaer, and also the chairmen of the various township teachers’ institutes. A brief outline of the work has been sent to the above people. Every school house in the county can be made the center of* an interesting study of local history. Much of the work will consist of a study of local, county and state geography at first and followed by the history work. The latter can be done by collecting relics, having old settlers visit the schools and talking about the early days, the gathering of pictures and documents, finding out about the manners and customs and life in general of the early days, etc. An interesting study would be concerning the Indians. After this is done, it is tha plan to have local celebrations in various parts of the oounty and later a county observance of some sort. For these occasions it would be possible to have a historical pageant, a “home coming," an “old folks” program, ~.i exhibit of the relics and documents. It is hoped that the people of the county'will respond to the efforts of those in charge of this work by giving any information they can. If one has any interesting news, it should be published in the papers. From time to time there-will be notices published of what others are doing over the state. Centennial organization has been started in nearly 60 counties. Together these chairmen compose Ihe grand committee. They are representative citizens of the state —busy men, already doing things worth while. In the list there are fourteen school men, including county and city superintendents and others; ten attorneys, two judges, five men in general business; five bankers, eight edi‘tors, a civil engineer, a manufacturer, a physician, librarian, author, postal clerk, and two or three farmers. The commission is to hold its next meeting Oct. 16, at historic Corydon, where Indiana was bom 99 years ago. The grand committee so far boasts two women, who promise to be about the liveliest wires of the 92. They are Mrs. R. F. Dooley, Rockville, thairman of Parke county, and Miss Genevieve Williams, of Huntington, chairman of Dubois. Both already have plans well outlined for next yearis celebration in their counties. The commission has just issued a timely circular on Pageantry by George Mcßeynolds, head of the history department of the Evansville high school. It is full of practical suggestions for next year’s pageants, and will gladly be mailed on inquiry to any address. Chairman John C. Shirk, of Franklin county, writes: In 1897 we had a home coming, and again in 1908 we celebrated the 100th anniversary of the founding of Brookville, and we made a great success of each. We will make the one hundredth anniversary of our state a greater success. We have fixed the first week in June for the celebration. We will have a pageant, an historical exhibit, and a home coming as features. “Professor Herbert Briggs, head of the Vocational Department of the Public chools of Terre Haute,” is the registry title of the chairman of Vigo. But it doesn’t oppress him a particle. He is the very essence of vim, vigor and vitality, chuck full of enthusiasm. “Some men swear and spit tobacco for diversion,” says Briggs, but he says he finds his in chasing down things historical, including his ancestors. Forget his registry data above but keep your eye on red headed Briggs of ‘Terry Hut.”

Comments Of Papers. About The President’s Engagement.
No Trouble at All. Union City Eagle— President Wilson oughtn’t to have any trouble attending a house party at the home of his friend wHhse very name is House.
World Loves a Lover.
Shelbyville Republican —As all the world loves a lover, President Wilson will receive the congratulations of every American citizen first and all the world next. Long live the President!
Ought to Get It.
South Bend Tribune—The bride-to-be being connected with the jewelry business, perhaps the New York firm from which Mr. Wilson buys his ring will let him have h trade discount.
Rejoicing With Wilson.
Decatur Democrat —The announcement that President Wilson is to wed Mrs. Galt, a beautiful Washington woman, is a surprise to the citizens of the nation, but it will not prevent them from rejoicing in his happiness.
Stung Again.
Lafayette Journal —We hate to mention the subject again, but if President Wilson really loves the people he would have married first and made the announcement afterward, and saved the from having to read all the slush that will be printed about the preparations.
A Kick Coming.
Columbus Republican—ls the circumstances were different, doubtless the manager of the Galt jewelry store in Washington would raise a righteous howl at the president for not trading at home in the little matter of purchasing an engagement ring for his betrothed.
Republican Editorial View.
Newcastle Courier —Of course it is strictly President Wilson’s own business if he wants to get married again so soon after the death of his first wife, but it must be admitted that he will now have to come down off the pedestal to where a lot of people have elevated him, for he is simply a human and not a demigod.
Finley Gray Warned.
Fort Wayne News —The announcement of President Wilson’s engagement came as a surprise to the country, but it was not only a surprise but a positive shock to the members of congress, the cabinet members, heads of departments, and other high officials to whom this thing of chipping in to buy wedding presents for the Wilson family is getting to be exceedingly tiresome.
Agreeable News—Ah! Ha!
Terre Haute Tribune —Citizens of the nation will join in congratulations to President Wilson. They, have sympathized with him in the solitude of his life in recent months. This attitude toward the chief executive will be dissipated in the agreeable news that he will shortly acquire a companion, some one to share his burdens and to mellow the arduous and trying tasks that his position continuously involves.

LIFE INSURANCE CO. SUED FOR AID IN LOAN
Policy Holder Object* to Mutual Life Ins*ranee Co. Subscribing For Allied Aid. Chicago, Oct. 11.—Alleging that the Mutual Life Insusance Co., of New York contemplates investing $10,000,000 of the trust funds in the Anglo-French loan of $500,000,000, Olga H. S. Walsh, Chicago, holder of a $2,000 insurance policy in the Mutual, filed suit for an injunction in the federal court here today. Frank S. Mannett, former attorney general of Ohio, is the attorney for the plaintio. The insurance company, Charles A. Peabody, its president, the directors, members of the Anglo-French credit loan commission, J. P. “Morgan, individually, arid J. P. Morgan & Co., were named as defendants. The complaint to the court, which was filed by Mrs. Walsh in person, sets forth that among the thousands of policy holders are many persons of various nationalities, and that the investment of the trust funds f .these policy holders in the Anglo-French loan would tend to produce antagonism among the policy holders, might lead to the company and thereby depreciate the value of her interests in the company. In the language of the bill the court is informed that “the solvency of the company and the conservation of the Veserve fund depends on the good will of the policy holders and no part of the assets of the company should be loaned or invested in the securities of any of the warring nations or used for the purpose of abetting existing wars.”

GRAY HAIR BECOMES DARK, THICK, GLOSSY
Try Grandmother’s Old Favorite Recipe of Sage Tea and Sulphur. Almost everyone knows that Sage Tea and Sulphur, properly compounded, brings back the natural color and lustre to the hair when faded, streaked or gray, also ends dandruff, itching scalp and stops falling hair. Years ago the only way to get this mixture was to make it at home, which is mussy and troublesome. Nowadays we simply ask at any drug store for “Wyeth’s Sage and Sulphur Compound.” You will get a large bottle for about 50 cents. Everybody uses this old, famous recipe, because no one can possibly tell that you darkened your hair, as it does it so naturally and evenly. You dampen a sponge or soft brush witfe it and draw this through your hair, taking one small strand at a time. My morning the gray hair disappears, and after another application or two, your hair becomes beautifully dark, thick and glossy and you look years younger.
