SHIRLEY INSTITUTE

No Contributions Have Been Made and Institute Cannot Be Carried On Without Funds.

The Shirley Farmers' Institute is still in doubt for want of funds, although the amount of money is small, only $40, not a single contribution has been received by the committee up to date, and they do not know what move to make, as they are afraid they will lose the mstitute altogether. This seems likely, as the Kennard citizens raised the amount in half a day, and are waving the funds in the face of the committee. It is said £.he committee is feeling inclined to accept it and hold the institute at Kennard. The Shirley News of last week made a strong appeal to the citizens and business men of Shirley to raise the amount and keep ithe institute there.

PROCIL EXCELLENT SIN6IHG

At Christian Church Sunday—New Pastor, Rev. Decker, Shows Deep Thought.

Rev. M. S. Decker, pastor of the 'Christian church, delivered two characteristic sermons Sunday that were practical and helpful. In part he said: --/V "What are we getting out of our Christianity? Jesus said, 'for yourselves lay up treasures in heaven. We are confounded in the text. Godliness in all things profited much. Orthodoxy is not a warm thing. Of course, it might indicate something as to where we differ with others, but it doesn't amalgamate. We many times get mixed as to what is essential and non-es-sential. Too many of our churches are cold storage plants. They are worse than a cold storage, for those plants are a necessity, but a church is an entirely different thing. The divorce evil finds a remedy in the courts, but if taken up to God the results would be different the world over. Is there anything in it? Our profit is in proportion to the investment, to what we put into it. The returns are large. There are loan sharks, stock sharks and many others that represent to the victim a big return. But the Master meant what He said when he said: 'Some 30, some 60 and some an hundred fold.' This was not a shirk, but Jesus Christ talking."

The evening discourse was from the subject. "God's Power House," and the speaker said: "There are preachers who run after this and that new theory, till the message is confused and unprofitable. Out of the fullness of the heart the mouth speaketh. A traveling man who is ashamed of his goods should get off the road. He is a failure. Paul had the goods and he stood for them. The Gospel of Christ is the power ol' God unto salvation. It is God's power house, and drives its forces info the hearts of men. Some arts ashamed of their goods because of the quality. Some are bolder because they have no shame. Something awfully wrong with the race the first century, and there is something awfully wrong now. Love works- at its job, and never tires. It was love in John 3-16, in its fulness that made God give his only begotten son. No child that lives can ever repay the sacrifices of a devoted mother whose sacred dust may now be reposing on the little hillside, but many are the tears of regret shed, that we are not able to in some measure make amends for our indifference in the past. No love like a mother's love. Electricity was an element thousands of years ago, but it took the devoted genius to localize it. God's power and love was since time began, but it took devoted hearts and faithful lives to localize it. Many houses are badly lighted because the power is not applied. The same spiritually, when the power of God is not turned on. Turn on the power, ye dreamers, and indifferent, and enjoy the contact with God's Power House."

Great crowds assembled at both services and the singing was excellent.

Major Judge Over Hancock Court. The death of Charles Major a few days ago at Shelbyville recaled to the minds of the older citizens of Greenfield that the father of the deceased, Stephen Major, at one time presided over the Circuit Court in Hancock county. When he was Judge of the Circuit Court, Hancock county was in his circuit. That was many years ago. Hon. William R. Hough, of this city, was admitted to the bar when Judge over the Circuit Court. In speaking of his services as Judge, Mr. Hough says that Judge Major was a very dignified official, with a fine personality. ..

SHUBERT MURAT THEATER

John Philip Sousa's light opera, The! Glassblowers," will be presented by John Cort at the Shubert Murat, Indianapolis, beginning on February 20th, for an engagement of three nights and a matinee. It has been five years since Sousa has penned a score, and the news that he has again entered the composing field will no dolibt prove more than passing interest to the lovers of music, the kind that Sousa has made world famous. For the past two years Sousa and his librettist, Leonard Liebling, a writer of humorous fiction, who has to his credit such successes as "Vera Yioletta," "The Balkan Princess," and "The Girl and the Kaiser," have been at work on the opera, and it is said they have turned out a highly interesting work, strictly American in theme. The book is said to contain much comedy and clever lyrics. The score contains eighteen numbers, one of which is Sousa's new march, "From Maine to Oregon." The stage setting calls for elaborate scenic display and reveals the interior of a New York mansion during an entertainment, a glass blowing factory at Greenpoint, L. I., and the camp of the United States Volunteers at Santiago, Cuba, during the SpanishAmerican war. The glass-blowing scene is said to be a faithful reduplication of the works as they actually exist, and no doubt will prove ,a new and novel stage setting. The cast has as its principal members, Edna Blanche Showalter, Dorothy Maynard, Marguerite Farrell, Maude Turner Gordon, Louise Ford, John Parks, Charles Brown, Gilbert Gregory, Edward Wade, Edward O'Donnell and Tony Nash. A chorus of forty and an augmented orchestra are added features. dw

Author of "Andrew the Glad" Whenever Maria Thompson Daviess, the popular Nashville, Tenn., novelist, is in New York, she spends at least one day of her visit among the poor in the famous East Side tenement district. When Miss Daviess' latest book. "Andrew the Glad," was published only a short time ago, Miss Daviess was in New York, and prevailed on a friend to take her to the slum district in her motor car.

A great lover of children, and given to many charities in her home town, Miss Daviess was touched by the appealing, pinched faces of the litt.le ones who clambered about her car as it stopped in front of one of the large tenement houses. Asking her friend's permission, Miss Daviess opened the door of the big red automobile and invited the children to "hop in and take a ride."

There was a grand scramble and sooner than it takes to tell about it, the large tonneau of the motor-car was tilled with grimy, unkempt kiddies. Promising to return for the others who could not find places about or in the machine, Miss Daviess ordered the chauffeur to drive about the neighborhood and return for the remaining children. In the course of the afternoon the big car was filled to overflowing many times until every child in the block had taken a "joy ride" with the novelist.

This is as much of the story as Miss Daviess herself relates. But the friend whose machine was used and who accompanied Miss Daviess, adds this: Upon returning from the slumming tour, Miss Daviess invited her to take tea at Clermont, and when it came time to pay the check, much embarrassed, Miss Daviess was compelled to borrow
