DRIVER’S HIP IS BROKEN WHEN CAR STRIKES CALF. Carrol Doxen, a Newton county young- man, was brought to Rensselaer by ambulance early this Friday morning and taken to the Rensselaer X-ray laboratory; where"~it was ascertained that he was suffering from a broken hip bone. The injury was the result of an accident when the car he was driving Thursday night struck a calf which jumped from a ditch into the path of the machine. The calf was killed instantly and the car was turned from its course and plunged into the ditch. Mr. Doxen suffered ■other injuries and will doubtless be laid up for several weeks. The other occupant of the car, a Mr. Purdy, escaped uninjured. Doxen is* a Mt. Ayr boy. but has been working at Donovan, 111., near which place the accident occurred. PUBLIC SALE.

THURSDAY TEACHERS’ INSTITUTE NOTES.
Continued' attendance upon the part of the residents of Rensselaer marked thefpurihday-oftheteach--ers!'institute. The speakers of the day, in addition to the regular faculty, were C. M. Sands, county truancy officer;... Hon. W. L. Wood and Rev. J. B. Fleming of the Presbyterian church. Rev. Fleming, in his devotional exercises read the story of the Good Samaritan and impressed the idea of service, ministry. In his afternoon talk he urged education for well spent leisure hours. Habits are permanent, nothing is taught until the pupils gets it; some have greater capacities than others. —Mr. Fleming—believes in taking case of individual differences, but he decries the drifting away from the classics that is the result of vocational education. Education is the systematic development and culture of the feeling and conduct for life in particular or in general—so states 'some author. Rev. Fleming would have the “or” changed to “and.” He believes that education has already gone too far in preparing for specific living. Seventy-seven per cent of our leaders are drawn from college men, who constitute only 2 per cent of our population. The busy man is the man who does things. The leisure man has no time to do things. People cannot bear to stay at home because they do not know how to spend their leisure time. Satan finds mischief for idle hands to do. There is plenty of charity work among foreign lands for leisure hours. . ■ Hon. W. L. Wood talked on “The Future Citizen.” He said that if we are to expect better citizens we must have faith, hope and expectation in that citizen. All must see ideals and live to them. He expressed sentiments that would lead one to believe him to be opposed to the League of Nations. Mr. Sands merely informed the teachers of their duties in regards to attendance and in what way he would assist in procuring regular attendance. — ——
The world war was continued as a subject for discussion throughout the day by Mr. Elson. In the morning he briefly traced the growth of the German Empire and ■how it was, too, a federal government, but all states did not have equal rights, one state held the balanceof wealth, population and area, and all the states had hereditary rulers. The triple alliance was fonned, and to offset this the triple entente. The purpose of both was to keep peace, but each failed. The Hague tribunal was the result of the work of the ill-fated Czar of Russia. Germany was always the unruly member of the tribunal. She was always under military rule. America was and is the first nation not to be Innately- belligereTTtT parTth'ily because of its isolation, but chiefly because of its intense individualism. Forts were a failure in this war, as were the submarine and the Zeppelin. Germany miscalculated several times, first in regards to Belgium. Belgium allowed France and England time to mobilize. Gen. Joffre was a wise leader. The crucial 'battle was the first battle of the Marne. The next two years were spent in deadlock. Germany blundered again when she drew the United States into the conflict. Submarines were to have blockaded England, but failed. The greatest single weapon against the submarine was the depth bomb. “Beware of the fury of a patient man.”„ Ger*-
r many-did—notr-expect7To draw the J" United States into the war, but ' thought that if by some chance ! America should be drawn into the ; conflict that her submarines wouk ; prevent the transportation of sol- ; diers. It is well known that these ■ plans failed. An autocratic, government sometimes is more, efficient than a democratic, but a democracy has a tremendous reserve power, whereas an autocracy does not. Our men defeated the Germans. Forts proved useless, cavalry was almost displaced by the aeroplane and the tank and automobile, and the machine gun the rifle. The only protection for a country now is a larger army than the foe has. There was perfect willingness on the ■part of our people or the results and sacrifices gained and made would never have been possible.
“The White Hyacinths of the Great War,” was the subject of Mr. Evans’ discourse. He quoted two statements—all the poetry an individual needs is enough to put cow butter on one side of his bread and apple butter on the other side; If I had two loaves of bread I would sell one to buy two white hyacinths to feed my soul. The first is a materialist, the second an idealist Man is a spiritual aviator and not a groundhog. The spirit of the hyacinths counteracts the downward pulling tendencies in man. The second quotation is that of a man | who, is living a balanced life; onehalf of his goods go for the benefit |of his soul. The unseen things are eternal. All the great souls gave up much. He fead several poems written by soldiers which illustrated how deeply idealjfrtie.-the men— werer

MURDER CASE TRIAL SET FOR SEPTEMBER 16.
M. C. Mellon and Alex Cota, arrested at Monon March 22 on the charge of murder, will have a hearing in the White circuit court Tuesday, September 16, if a continuance does not intervene. Mrs. Pearl Graves, wife of Samuel Graves, was almost instantly killed Saturday afternoon, March 22, when she was run over .by a touring car in which there were four men. An aggravating phase of the tragedy was the fact that Mellon and Cota, two of the four occupants. wero said tobc intoxicated. They were held without bail, following a hearing before Justice Catlin, but were later given their liberty under habeus corpus proceedings.
SEED WHEAT.
The following letter has been sent out by County Agent Learning to the county agents of Indiana: Rensselaer, Ind., Sept. 2, 1919. Dear Sir: Perhaps you already know of the study that 'has been made in this county of varieties of wheat developed to withstand wijiter-killing. The Gypsy and Gladden varieties, developed at the Ohio experiment station, have been found the hardiest grown in this locality. In one field trial this yehr, where the standard Turkey Red made 10 bushels per acre, the Gypsy made 15. In another trial Red Rock made 24 bushels of No. 4 wheat and Gypsy made 27 bushels of No. 1. In one threshing run the Gypsy averaged 24 bushels and all other varieties averaged 16. This wheat is being distributed by Firman Thompson, Rensselaer, and Potter and Sawyer, Rensselaer, cleaned to 99.5 per cent'pure, at |2.80 per bushel for the Gypsy and $2.90 for the Gladden. Sacks are 40 cents each. Should any of your .farmers desire hardy seed wheat, I believe that they will be pleased with these varieties. Very sincerely yours, County Agricultural Agent.
All men are born free and equal, and each has everythfing his own way, until he is a year or two old. Theophile Declasse is the name of the French minister of marine. Sounds like a brand of cheese.

WITH GLANDO Mr. Haushalter, the well known and energetic proprietor of the Hotel Paulding, Paulding, 0., said that for several years he had suffered from a sluggish liver, bachache and kidney trouble. He felt so drowsy and languid he could scarcely drag. He says “I had tried a number of kidney pills and liver remedies but found no relief until I used Glando the Great Gland Tonic. It proved to be just what I needed. lam thoroughly convinced I would have been flat on my back if I had not used this treatment, but instead of being laid up I am feeling fine and looking after my business every day. If I feel any indication of my old trouble returning I take a Glando treatment and it puts me right.” Mr. Haushalter was dying <rf s€lfpofSohlhg cauSd by an inactive liver. This weakened the kidneys and other glands of the body. If he had not found a remedy that renewed glandular activity and removed the poison his life would undoubtedly have paid the penalty. Glando Tonic is the only remedy of its kind on the market and its numerous cures is proof enough of its great yUne tP,.Tnsnkind. - It is wSKFpy druygists or will be sent direct by the Gland-Aid Co., Fort Wayne, Ind.

MARCH SAYS U.S. MUST PREPARE
SAYS WORLD-WIDE UNREST MAKES LARGER ARMY NECESSARY. Germany never would have provoked the United States into entering the war if war expenditures of the war department had been used for preparedpaM-dH-tHne-of" Tieace. the bouse military committee was told Thursday by Gen. March, chief of staff. The general appeared at hearings on the war department s plans Tor permanent military policy. The interest on the $14,000,000,000 spent by the war department, the general said, would finance the future military program advocated by the department, which calls for a system of universal military training and a regular army of 576,000 men. World-wide unrest prompted the department to propose a large army, Gen. March said, explaining that the regular army would be the skeleton organization of a field army of 1, 250,000 men. •. . “It would be a practical-sized force for invasion . in moderatesized war,’’ said th* general. “It would also provide,” he continued, “a first line of defense from attack and behind which we could train in a big war.” = . . ‘sln the last war we were fortunate enough to have a ring of iron that our allies built around the enemy, and behind which we could train. The war department never wants to be caught in that situation again.” To carry out the war department s plans, expenditures of $683,000,000 would be necessary the First y ear r but the maximum annual cost-would not exceed $900,000,000, is the opinion of March.
