RECORDS WILL SHOW WORK OF DEMOCRAT RULE McCulloch Tells What Party Has Accomplished for State’s Good. PROGRESS IN EDUCATION MARION, Ind.. Sept. 3.—ln an address delivered here last night Dr. Carleton B. McCulloch, democratic gubernatorial nominee, reviewed the advancement of education under democratic administration, and ftiedged himself, if elected, to bring about still greater advantages for youthful Hoosiers. "I am glad to represent a party that has stood for the advancement of educational affairs since the organisation and adoption of our first constitution,” the candidate said. “The best criterion by which to judge soundness of principles, consistency of platform and wisdom of administration of any political party is its interest in. and for, the advancement of education among the people. “Judged by such a criterion how will the democratic party stand! “Notwithstanding the aspersions cast by our worthy political opponents against the enlightenment of the democratic party an investigation of practices rather than fine-spun theories, reveals the fact that democratic general assemblies have made their most sacred obligation the enactment of laws to improve the public schools of the state and promote facilities for education. “The faith of this party in education and the public schools has been a profound one, expressed in acts, not words, in performances, not promises. “Yes, a democratic constitutional convention brought into existence our great common school system of Indiana, with the common school fund, the rights and privilege of which the poorest child in the state finds a rich heritage. “The doors of the public schools were then opened to poor and rich alike, to the eons mon people ns to the aristocrat. “Upon this splendid foundation succeeding democratic assemblies have built a great educational superstructure, by enacting the most important and far-

charge account.” 'iiiwv E “ I Dress Up m FOR jjgjSL 1 Labor Day /HRS I SUITS DRESSES 1 I Serges, Poplins, Gaber- In serge, tricotine and K 1 "W \ \ dines— silk— rir i 1 \/ ' S2S- so sl9-50 Ml mh \ 1 up I up | p®S| Wonderful line of furs mf-tv/r ii PIUSh OOatS, Cloth Mink, Racoon, Squirrel, l\u j || 1/ ~ , TT Fox, Skunk, etc. We also l.'ii I.

Shannon Re-Elected U. B. Conference Head Special to The Times. TERRE HAUTE, Ind., Sept. 3.—At the seventy-fifth annual meeting of the White River conference of the United Brethren church. In session here this week, the Rev. J. E. Shannon of Marlon was elected superintendent of the conference for tne eighth consecutive time. Bishop H. H. Font, in discussing the present Industrial unrest, said the only remedy is a world-wide religious revival. The Incorporation of the conference, under the laws of Indiana, taking over all church property neia t>y the various congregations, was approved. reaching school laws on our statute books. TOWNSHIP MADE UNIT. “Through representatives of this party the civil township was made the unit for school purposes, a provision, which, een now, sixty years later, many states In this country are struggling to secure. “Uniform text book laws, for both the elementary and high schools, saving annually to the people of Indiana thousands of dollars, the first pension law for teachers, and Its later extensions, the medical inspection and sanitary school buildings laws, the establishment of public play grounds, the making of fire drills compulsory, the modification or the minimum wage law to increase the salaries of experienced teachers, the improvement of the compulsory education law, the establishment of the office of high school Inspector, enabling the state of Indiana to maintain a system of secondary schools of greater service to the young people of the state are all acts of democratic legislatures. “Prior to 1913 our higher institutions' of learning were very meagerly supplied with funds for their support, as compared with the income of corresponding institutions In other states. “Indiana's Income of less than $2,000, 000—$1.902.000—did not go far in ’he support of higher education when compared with the amounts provided for the same purpose In the neighboring states of Ohio and in Illinois. VOCATIONAL LAW A BOON “Since the establishment of the public school system, no law has ever been enacted that will have as great an influence on the educational and social life of the people of Indiana as the vocational law. “To the democratic legislature of 1913

we are Indebted for this law. Introducing a scheme of education in the elementary schools and high schools that will enable the pupil to apply his academic learning to the affairs of his Ilf? at home and in society. “He will thus grow to understand it and appreciate his immediate surround ings and will have aroused in him a respect for labor and its conquests. "The fundamental purpose of public education is good citizenship. Surely it will aid that purpose when the pupi! leaves that schoolhouse If he is in a measure ready to enter the world and earn a wage without spending years In an apprenticeship. “It will not only inspire confidence but conduce to morals and reduce idleness. If society has as its first command that man shall earn his bread by the sweat of Ms brow, then does it not owe a duty to the man that in the formative period of youth it will equip him for the strug gle and not, In the compulsory attendance at school, give him a course of study which has for its ultimate end the college or university, but rather give him a course that in guiding his thoughts teaches hie hands to respond by action to these thoughts? "The progressive thought of today favors this in our school systems, and though It may be retarded In Its progress, it will surely come in the fullness of time.” LEMON JUICE FOR FRECKLES Girls t Make beauty lotion for a few cents—Try it!
