THE EVENING HEPUBLI CAN, RENSSELAER, IND.

I. U. RENEWED ITS AMERICANISM NOV. 11.

(Indiana University Daily Student.) Though it is passed, the celebration commemort tins the signing of the armistice v./U long be remembered by the students of Indiana University and the citizens of Bloomington who witnessed the wonderful spectacle on Jordan Field. Literally the entire university was Nothing compelled the students to be present. They came of their own accord confident that it was a day on. which they should show their loyalty to their Alma Mater and to their country. They were more Wan wining to turn their thoughts to the gra-t. part America had played in the v7> rid war. Happiness and sorrow were two mighty feeling- that seemed to go hand in hand :..id, in fact g'rmeated the very air. And perhaps there was another feeling that grew stronger as the ceremony continued, that was accentuated by the words of President Bryan. It was a determination. to revert to that all impressive war term, “C'rry on.” A feeling that the war was not over as yet fastened itself in the wind of every person there. That In these days of reconstruction there was a great deal to be done and it was to be done through wisdom. Nothing cduld have been more impressive than the sight of this large assemblage standing with heads bowed listening and inwardly feeling the power of Chaplain -White’s prayer. The solemnity of the occasion, the strong clear voice of the chaplain as it carried to every corner of the field made everyone’s heart quicken just a little, for those who had made the supreme sacrifice and determination for the living in echoing -that famous phrase, ‘‘Th'at these dead shall not have died in vain.” It made cne g’acl to be among such a group and to know that they all .thought alike, that they were all staunch Americans and that America came first in- their thoughts. Everyone left with a warmer feeling in his heart. Left with a feeling of duty done and braced for the struggles that are sure to mark the reconstruction period that Is at hand.

NEED FOR MEMORIAL MUSEUM FELT AT INDIANA UNIVERSITY

Bloomington, Ind., Theodore Roosevelt’s work as a naturalist was much discussed during the campaign for his memorial, but it is little known that Indiana University has the honor of housing one of his early collections of bjrds. As a young man, Roosevelt was much interested in the collection of birds that frequented the country near his home. After a time this collection was sold, after beIng divided into small tuts, ana et which the university was fortunate enough to obtain. The local collection consists of seventy-five specimens, including a kingfisher, gull, owl, bluebird, duck, wookpecker and numerous other small birls. » For lack of an adequate museum this collection is no * housed in the dingy basement of Biology hall and is not readily accessible. Each specimen is labeled in the former president’s handwriting. At the time , the collection was purchased, no thought was given to the prominence of the collector but only to the value of the skins, and now the suggestion is made that a Roosevelt Memorial Museum shbuid be provided for the university by either a private endowment or through state aid.

FARMERS FRIEND ON RESERVEBOARD

H. A. Moehlenpah New Appointee, Long Interested in . - Agriculture. REPRESENTSCOUNTRY BANKS Has Been Active In Encouraging Rural Development and Introduction of Better Farming Methods— Self-Made Man. Appointment of H. A. Moehlenpah of Wisconsin to the federal reserve board establishes a link in the banking system of America which connects the great commercial and agricultural interests and serves to create a sympathetic understanding between the various factors in the financial organization of the nation. For Mr. Moehlenpah was essentially a country banker —a big one and an influential one, to be sure —but nevertheless a farmer’s banker and a banker representing and understanding the needs and problems of agriculture and of the smalT bank. He takes to the feleral reserve board, which of course, stands at the head of our financial system, a profound knowledge of what Is required in the way of financing for the agricultural interests of this country. Since 1893 he has been connected, first as cashier and later as president, with the Citizen’s Bank of Clinton, Wis., an Institution of $50,000 capital. Within the last ten years he has organized and operated two large institutions for the handling of farm

loans. The first of these is known as the Wisconsin Mortgage and Securities company and has a capital stock of $200,000. It was organized in 1914 and during the first five years of its existence it made loans to sixteen hundred farmers aggregating five millions of dollars. The second of these institutions is known as the Bankers’ Joint Stock Land Bank of Milwaukee, organized In 1918 under the federal farm loan act, with a capital of $250,000. This institution now has.* about seven hundred loans Ineffect totalling . Understands Farmer's Needs. While these facts show the financial gelation of Mr. Moehlenpah to agricultural interests, they barely hint at his great activity in behalf of the farmers for he was active in Wisconsin and at Washington, D. C., in behalf of the legislation which resulted In the passage of the farm loan act. His last work in Wisconsin before going to Washington was that of getting under way the organization of a cattle loan company for the purpose of financing the movement of pure bred stock from southern Wisconsin to northern districts of that state. He had been active for many years encouragingbetter fanning and has been Identified with many movements like grain contests, exhibitions in rural schools, formation of country development associations and educational excursions made for the purpose of introducing pure bred stock and pure bred seeds. Many times he has been chairman of the committee for such work in charge. Knows Big Policies. However, Mr. Moehlenpah is not merely a country banker. He is one who understands the larger aspects of finance and is able to think of, financial problems in large units. He was a considerable factor in the discussions of the federal reserve act before it became a law and perhaps more than any single individual was responsible for the endorsement of this act by the Americr .Bankers’ association. When the federal reserve act was before congress, the American Bankers’ association called a conference tn Chicago of the bankers of the country forthe purpose of securing suggestions for amendments it was felt would be needed. > Represents Country Bankers. As a result of that conference, Mr Moehlenpah was appointed a member of a committee of fifteen representing the. bankers of the United States. He represented, the country banks, all the other members being large city bankers: A. P. Hepburn, New York; W. AMaddoXr Atlanta, Ga.; j. B. Forgan and G. M. Reynolds, Chicago, and

AS HE SAID, “SOME BUGI"

Indianapolis Man Toll* How Small Creature Led toeDlsoovery of Hidden Mountain Dow. “A funny thing happened to me the ether morning,” volunteered an East side man after he got firmly established on the rear of an incoming East Washington street car and had successfully filled and Mghted his pipe and had it going good. “What’s that, Bill; did you forget and go to church?" asked another passenger, who seemed to know the victim of the funny incident. “A bug caused it” continued Bill, ignoring the insinuation; “funniest lookin’ bug I ever saw. “I was lying on the bed reading some poetry, ‘The Death of the Flowers,’ you know how it goes, “The melancholy days have come, the saddest of the year; of wailing winds and naked woods and meaaows brown and sere. The robin and the wren are flown, and from the shrub the jay and from the woodtop’ ” “Well, as I was saying,” continued Bill, "I was reading that sad poem— I’m doing a lot of that thing since the stfltfi went ’dry’—-when I saw this bug running" across a rug toward a clothes press in the corner of the room. It was the meanest lookin’ bug I ever saw, and it certainly was goin’ some. I jumped off the bed and made a dash for it, but it beat me and got into the closet. I didn’t want the bug crawling around over my bed in the night, so I dived right into the clothes press and threw out about three dozen different kinds of garments that had been tossed in there to get ’em out of the way. Then suddenly I saw the bug and back in the corner a quart of mountain dew both at the same time. Durned if I didn’t forget all about everything but that quart. It certainly was some find. I wonder when the wife hid It there.” “What became of the bug?” asked a young fellow who evidently was studying to be a lawyer. - ■ “That’s the funny part of it,” replied Bill. “’Course I never thought of the bug again until about an hour after that when I saw Mr. Bug clear on the other side of <the room beatin’ it to get under a dresser, I got him that time, and he sure was some bug.”—lndianapolis News.

Lost and Found.

A customer with a camera came in to tell his troubles to Joe Craven, a photographer In South Illinois street. “Last Sunday I found this camera on a bench at Riverside,” he said. “There were two films that had not been used so I exposed them and would like to have the roll printed. If you know or hear of anybody who lost a camera, why just give it to them.” So, when Craven printed the pictures he took one of them and put it in his window with a small sign on it “This Girl Lost Her Camera; If You Know Her Please Tell Her That Her Camera Is Here and She May Have It and the Pictures Gratis!” Three days later she came,in for the camera and the finder of the camera eame back for his set of pictures. The sad part of it all is the fellow came just about ten minutes too late to meet the girl. So girls, if you see a fellow look at you and then take a picture out of his pocket and look at it don’t get excited. He merely wishes to meet the good looking girl who lost the camera. —Indianapolis News.

The Friendly Water Trip.

It’s a queer world. Sunday we spent in a friend’s boat, making the trip to Wallaceburg), Ont. Along that stretch of blue water we passed every sort of people in every sort of boats, and in every instance we waved a hand in greeting to them and they waved to us. It was no trick at all to get a warm and genial sign of friendship from passersby. The people on land saluted us. It seemed as though we were continually being welcomed as we arrived in sight and wished good luck as we departed. Yet on land, we could have passed by the same people time after time and not one of them would have turned to look or wave a hand. Why can’t people be as friendly to tthveiers 1 as they are to those who travel by water? It’s a queer world.—Cleveland Leader.

Priests Fought as Poilus.

Yesterday on the Rue St. Honore I met two priests, one wearing an empty sleeve, one wearing a mechanical leg and both wearing the Croix de Guerre. “Were you In the war as chaplains?" I asked. “No,” replied the one-legged priest, “we were poilus. Most of the younger priests fought in the ran W” “But I suppose very few were wounded?” “On the contrary," replied the armed one, “the percentage was high. You see, we had no families, so it only when there was something dangerous to do we should fgo first.”—Lee Shlppy in Kansas (pity Star.

Cotton Production Welcome.

Mesopotamia has always grown some cotton, which modern methods may improve. Of this material may have been the veil with which Rebekah covered herself at her first meeting with Isaac, as she journeyed under the guidance of Abraham’s servant from Mesopotamia to Canaan to become Isaac’s wife. Cotton competition between Mesopotamia and Egypt would be particularly attractive. And cotton is one good thing of which war’s tatterdenialion, the wogld Of today cannot have too much.—Boston Herald.
