The Appearance of FriU Kreisler, the Great Violinist, in Recital at .Vlurat Theatre, Indianapolis, Wednesday

Evening, March 3.

Ona B. Talbot announces the fourth subscribed concert to be given by Fritz Kreisler in violin recital at the Shubert Murat theatre on Wednesday evening March 3. Fritz Kreisler, the great violinist, who is now in this country playing to capacity houses in. all the large cities, first, because he is now recognized as the greatest violinist living, and also because of the tremendous interest which, is centered about him as a great artist, carrying his gun in place of the wonderful Stradivarius in the Lcmberg fight with the Russians. Fritz Kreisler, after having been discharged from the Austrian army, because of physical disability brought about by a wound received in the battles before Lemberg, has come practically to the conclusion that there is something radically wrong with modern life and methods of living. His own experience and the experiences of the men with whom he was oh the battle line showed him that physical conditions improved enormously under hardships which are almost unbelievable. He and the men with him grew stronger, keener and hardier. Telling about this recently, he said: "In the trenches, we were generally without food, several times for three days at a stretch. I have more than once licked the dew from the grass to moisten my throat, because I could get nothing to drink. The roads were impassable, and the supply trains moved only with great difficulty at the outset of the war. Somehow, the physical discomfort— that is a tame word to apply—does you no harm. Indeed, you feel better physically. I am of a nervous temperament. I would never have given myself credit beforehand for being able to get through what I went through. But when was in it, I found it did me no harm. On the contrary, it improved me in some ways. For instance, my eyesight was far better on the battlefield than it ever was before. could see like a hawk, for long distances better than I can now. My nerves disappeared. The horrible, shocking sights that were seen hourly did not alVect me as much as some letter 1 get now from a friend or wellwisher, expressing sympathy. Does this mean that we moderns under a civilization do not live rightly? De we eat too much? Do we get too much sleep? Do we fail of proper exercise? For my experience has shown me that the soldier on the battlefield, suffering crippling physical discomfort and mental shock that must almost have a pathological effect, is really the healthier man than even the one who uses civilization's best hygenic experience under the most favorable conditions."

All artists announced in this season of concerts have now arrived in America.

Prices for subscribed concerts— $3.00, $2.50, $2.00, $1.50, $1.00. Address all inquiries for tickets to Ona B. Talbot, office only, 916 Hume-Mansur Building.

FOLEY KIDNEY PIUS

FOR BACKACHE KIDNEYS AND BLADOEg

Greenfield Boy Is Star jn p|ay Bloomington. The Indiana Daily Student, of Bloomington, devotes a column and a half to a report of the students' play, "Caste," given there a few days ago, in which Russell Stuart, son of W. R. Stuart, played one of the leading roles. The Student says of Mr. Stuart's part: "To W. Russell Stuart and William Maurer, as Captain Hautree and Eccles, respectively must go the lion's share of the evening's honors. Stuart could hardly have been better as the snobbish, stylish, thoroughly English nobleman he represented. Monocle in eye and cane in hand, with a certain mincing gait and manner, he impersonated the the type effectively. His acting uniformly good, and at no time did he fail to interpret his lines to the limit."

THAT EARLY SPRING HAS WD TUMBLE

Is Flirting With Winter Again. Semi-Blizzard Carne As Surprise at This Time.

You remember about that eary spring that was reported to be on the job a few days ago, witli singing birds, budding trees, boys playing marbles, etc. Well, the general belief is that Miss Spring has stopped to flirt- for a short time with Old Man Winter, who seems to be inclined to want to settle here permanently.

It almost makes one lose faith in the groundhog, the singing birds and even the boys, when all of these signs fail and following right on their heels comes a semi-blizzard that shrinks the coal pile and threatens to compel one to buy more winter clothing. However, the weather man may be able to put this one over, but another similar attempt will cause a great deal of discontent and talk.

Mrs. George Aiford, of Richmond Tsaiah Aiford, of Lewisvillb, and William Aiford and wife, of Martinsville, attended the funeral of their brother-in-law and uncle, A. C. Aiford, here Wednesday.

Mrs. Samuel Moore, of Route 5, was the guest of her sister, Mrs. Charles Nigh, Friday.

Mrs. Otis Johnson has returned to her home, after a few days' visit with Mrs. Jerry Lynam, near New Castle.

MANY SPRING SIGNS HAVE BEEN REPORTED

Groundhog Favorable, Blue Jays, Robins, Mild Weather and Boys Collecting Marbles.

Many people seem to think that spring is lurking just around the corner and is already peeping out at us. They have advanced many arguments in the way of calling attention to signs that they say seldom fail to herald the coming of this welcome season.

One of the signs they say is the favorable groundhog prediction, for a majority seem to think that he failed to see his shadow last Tuesday. This is a sure sign to some that the backbone of winter has been broken.

Then others report hearing and seeing blue jays, robins and .other spring birds and another pretty dependable sign, they say, is the fact that there is much activity among boys in collecting marbles for the games that always accompany the advent of spring. Other signs too numerous to mention are given, one of which is that the winter came early and was intense, which presages an equally early and satisfying spring.

Taken altogether, there seems to be no doubt that spring will soon be with us unless some heartless weather man wishes another blizzard or snow storms on us.

JACOB KEMERLY HAS A MOW ESCAPE

Horse Backed Buggy Off Bridge Into Sugar Creek. Saved By Hard Work.

Jacob Kemerly, of Green township, had a narrow escape Wednesday afternoon from being drowned.

He started to drive across the Olvey bridge over Sugar Creek when his horse became frightened at an upheaval of ice which was forming a gorge and backed the buggy oft' of the grade into the surging water, buggy, driver and horse all going into the creek among the great ice chunks floating about there. Three men, George and Frank Andis and James Barrett, who were near at hand, succeeded in saving Mr. Kemerly, also the horse, after heroic and dangerous work, and so far as was learned, Mr. Kemerly is suffering no serious results from his nerve-racking and dangerous experience.

Farmers Wanted.

Uncle Sam is looking for several hundred practical farmers to take up homes on the irrigation projects he has been building in the West. The land is free, but the la»v requires settlers to pay their share of building the irrigation system, and for this reason a moderate capital is necessary. A practical farmer with from $1,500 to $3,000 should have no trouble in acquiring one of these farms and putting it in successful cultivation.

Under the new Extension Act the settlers are allowed twenty years- in which to pay for their water right, and no interest is required on deferred payments. Details concerning opportunities and terms will be furnished upon request by the statistician of the reclamation service, Washington, D. C.

The farms are located in Idaho, Montana, South Dakota, Nebraska, Wyoming and Nevada, and offer opportunities for citizens to establish homes in a growing country. Adjacent farms are under cultivation, railroads have been built, schools and churches established, telephone and rural free delivery are available, and most of the hardships of pioneering already have been overcome.

Alfalfa, is tl*e big crop, although grain and sugar beets are profitable and in some sections truck farming pays well. Live stock and dairying are the principal industries.

County Commissioners W. II. Albea and J. H. Bussell, county road superintendent, Charles N. Warren, county surveyor, G. C. Winslow, were on the McComas road Friday and with the contractor, Everett McMahan, took dinner with the superintendent, Charley F. Hays.

Look Out For Them.

From different parts of the country comes stories of a swindle successfully worked on farmers who thought they were going to get cheap groceries. Two smooth strangers went through the communities taking orders for a house in Chicago, pretending to sell a standard brand of sugar and fiour so cheaply that every farmer visited took from $10 to $00 worth, and other things besides. Because of the low prices the flour and sugar had to be "paid in advance." It is alleged that in one community t.ho swindlers picked up some $3,000 and no grocries delivered.
