HUNDREDS SIGN FOR UNIVERSITY -NIGHT GOURSES
Extension Offices Besieged With Applicants for Information. l MANY SUBJECTS TAUGHT To pass aa hour in the offices of the Indiana University extension division in the Merchants Bank building and listen to the, eager persons who come in to find out about the courses being conducted at night by the State University, is to be convinced that there are many aspiring men and women who aren't afraid to work hard for an education. What was that? Too old —school over—no such thing? " Among the constant stream of questioners were several whose hair was_ tinged with gray. • What if I do work all day,” remarked one “student,” “it isn’t going to hurt me to spare a couple of hours twice a week instead of going to a movie show.' COURSES DESIGNED TO MEET MODERN DEMANDS. In these days when every one is a specialist in his own field, there is need to have more than a general knowledge of English end arithmetic, but the best positions go to those who have both special and general education. To meet these demands of present da? the courses in the night school the have been arranged. The American Institute of Banking, recognising the importance of higher education is organizing four classes this year under the auspices es the Extension Division, namely, accounting and economics, public speaking, and two jn banking. - ' Last year seventy students were enrolled in similar courses, and the Credit Men’s Association had eighty-six students attending the course, given b> Asst. Prof. J. E. Moffat Four years ago last month the Extension Center at Indianapolis opened its first classes with an enrollment of 400 students. Each year it ns grown and last year almost 1,000 persons were enrolled in the lata afternoon and early evening classes. A surprisingly large number of persons this year are preparing to take up the new three-year courses, which offer a certificate in accounting, insurance, advertising or secretarial work. Thus, these people studying from six to eight hours a week In the evening • lasses will gain an education not onlj iu the subject in which they have specialised but also in business English, law, psychology, geography and his tory. SALESMANSHIP .COURSES ARE ATTRACTING MANY. The three-year courses are not limited three-year students, but are open to those who desire only .individual subjects. Stenographers, accountants, salesmen, and even heads of departments are Inquiring In large recognizing the fact that trained salespeople makt fewer mistakes and a knowledge of the fundamentals of their business means more* confidence in their institution. “It Pays to Advertise” has become the slogan of the hour, judging from the large number of enrollments in fl- ! vertising courses this fall. | While'many indicate a desire for only : general knowledge applicable to their I particular Hue' of business, many say they intend to take up advertising work gi neraliy. The former *oufses will -.V> er su‘b I important subjects as the kinds of adI vertising, mediums, purchasing power of I readers, position of advertisements, 11 [ lustrations, rates, ways of securing a>I tention, display types, size of advertiser ments, emphasis, aud use of color. Closely allied to these courses are those in the psychology of advertising and selling, the psychological problems of enyjloyment. management, elementary psychology, business psychology and personal efficiency. Spanish and French courses are proving as popular as they are among the resident studehts at Bloomington, and there is considerable dejnand for such advanced courses as labor problems, public and cokporation finance. , CULTURAL CLASSES ALWAYS LEAD OTHERS. / But Hoosiers are interested in tsonfetbing else besides the practical, if the demands for the cultural courses can be as an authority: tor the classes in literature, history and current events have always been well attended. • students will be taught the ”true genius” in such writers as Browning, Burns, laud Shakespeare. Then there are courses in types of English literature, English composition, story telling and dramatic art. There is a fine arts course in which Eiustrated lectures iu mediaeval art, 'including a study of the cathedrals, churches and hails of the middle ages, both from the standpoint of art and of their significance from the historic, social and economic points. Then, there are courses for the teachers in the educational department. The development of tin* Constitution and the origin of political parties, the Monroe Doctrine and the great issues of th*- Jast decade before the C'tH War wfll Ik: taken up in anew course in American history.

FRANKLIN QUITS; CITY FORCE AGOG Mystery of Demotion Deepens —Many Rumors Heard. That the Jewett “good government” political machine and the police department are not working smoothlv is evident from the fact that Harry M. Franklin resigned from the police department last night after he had been reduced to the rank of patrolman. The demotion came from “high up” is about all can be learned. Franklin has always been a Republican. It is presumed that Franklin has la some way displeased “someone.” A few "months ago he was reduced from captain so the rank of sergeant and yesterday from sergeant to patrolman, which bought about bis resignation. What has Franklin done? That question has been asked a hundred times ftrouLd police headquarters and ,the only answer seems to be “he's in bad with the city hall gang." “ARGUING POLITICS” MAY BE CHARGE, IS REPORT. It was unofficially reported that Franklin had “argued politics in public.” and for that reason, although a Republican, was reduced to the rank of patrolman by a Republican board of safety. Franklin, years ago was made a drillmaster at police headquarters by a Republican board of safety. But policemep don't like to drill and Franklin was promoted to the Job of helping keep records around poHPe headquarters and latter made a captain. When -Samuel V. Perrott became ch'.ef of police be knew only too well of the power and activity of Captain Franklin and reduced him to the rank of patrolman. Fearing that he might have to patroljn the “ragweeds," Franklin resigned. For a time Franklin was a juvenile court probation officer, but wheu the Republican “good government” ring came into power be again became a police official.“INSPECTOR FRANKLIN” MISSED CONNECTIONS. That the plans of tii “good government” gang were not perfected at that time was evident from the fact that on the cards accompanying a number of floral offerings sent to George V. Coffin, who was made chief of police, were congratulations for “Chief Coffin, Inspector Franklin - ' and three captains. However. Strelt was made inspector and Franklin a captain and that was really the first slip that was experienced by the “men behind Franklin.” Then last May, after Coffin had lost bis power as police chief, Franklin war reduced to sergeant, and the end of bis police career came yesterday. The board of puhiic safety is keeping mum, aud Franklin has no comment to make. No wonder that the wise ones are saying the “Jewett machine can't put over everything it wants to do and'still keep peace in the Republican family.” Some are wondering if the reported attempt to lift the Jid Just before election for the favered few Republican machine men has had any bearing on the Franklin efise.

JAPAN WISHED CABLE CONTROL Pacific Line Proposal May Come Up Again. 'V WASHINGTON, Oct. 6.—Efforts by Japan to control a cable acros the Pacific ocean between the.
