GREENCASTLEIOO YEARSJLD TODAY City Celebrates With Pageant and Huge Cake, By Vnited Fret* GREENCASTLE, Ind., Oct. 24. Memories of the days when Greencastle was not much more than a spot on the landscape were recalled by old-timers here today as the city celebrated the 100th anniversary of Putnam County. The center of the celebration was a street parade in which old modes of travel and modes of living’ in the pioneer days were depicted. The people of the county gathered relics from all sections and displayed them in the parade. They ransacked garrtes, cellars, barns and even’ hidden corner to discover articles that would recall the days of their grandparents. A yoke of oxen was brought from Fhoals. Ind., to be used to depict the ‘Forty-Niners.’* The pageant depicted the coming of the first settlers here way b3ok In 1823; their making friends with the Indians end the founding of the city. It depicted the establishment of De Pauw University, the first churches and schools. It recalled the excitement attended with the coming of the first railroad. A.gain. it brought to tr ind to many residents now living the trrgedy of the two great fires in 1874 nnd 1575 which practically wiped out the town. The climax of the celebration was the cutting of a huge birthday cake with 100 candles. The honor of the cutting was given to Mrs. Eva Torr, 63, oldest native woman born in Putram- County. Dr. Warren Sweet, head rt the history department of De Pauw University, was the historian fjr the centennial celebration and was in charge of the pages.-nt. MaJ. John Dunbar, Civil War Teteran, and oldest De Pauw graduate, shared In the festivites.

MOVIE TINGE IN CHURCH MUSIC Lutheran Body Disapproves Theatrical Stunts, By United Press CHICAGO, Oct. 24. —Influence of the movie has crept into the church to the extent that much of the church music of the present day has a movie theater tinge, committee on church music reported to the United Lutheran Church In America convention today. Church music should be composed *o “excite devotion and be free from profane association," the report stated. "Another abuse that Is beginning to find its way into some of our churches is the playing of soft music during certain spoken parts of the sermon, even during prayers,” the report stated. "This, too, seems to be derived from the movies. It is distracting and some of the music Is flippant type, even irrevant. Stunts of this kind leave a theatrical Impression and cannot possibly minister to devotion.” GIVEN AWAY Saturday, the 25th, Between 12 and 2 P. M.

‘Not In’ Signs Are Tacked on Statehouse Department Doors

The stiff breezes which precede general elections have puffed through the Statehouse corridors and well nigh depleted the offices of the politicians and party workers. Even the elevator operator is "out among ’em," drumming up Republican votes. Henry Roberts, custodian, who heads a department of the Republican State committee, was the first to pull down the roll top and mount the platform. Frederick E. Schortemeier, secretary to the Governor and candidate for secretary of State, while confining most of his speechmaking to evenings, still snips off half a day here and half a day there to further his cause. McCardle Is at It John McCardle, vice chairman of the public service commission, recently took to the midnight oil, preparing speeches to show how the Government railroad operation in Alaska was a flivver, thereby gath-

ering ammunition against "Fighting Bob." Bob Bailey, for years elevator operator at the Statehouse, has been absent from h. little cage for several weeks. It is repotted that he is down in the mining districts getting his old cronies all het up about Jackson and Coolide’e. A Real Juggler Chester Davis, attorney. State fire marshal’s department, has been juggling arson cases with one hand and arguments in favor of a Republican General Assembly In the other for these past weeks. And, of course, Ed Jackson, by now, has nearly forgotten where his office Is in the State house, appearing there only at intervals to prove he is stilll Secretary of State. - Outside of the headliners, scores of less9r lights, tucked in and about the appointive jobs at the Statehouse, are putting in ti.ei.* licks at precinct ward meetings whenever

possible. If it takes talk to hold their jobs, they’re doing nothing else but. A Coming Screen Event Zona Gale’s novel, "Faint Perfume,’’ will soon receive a film translation by B. P, Schulberg, who will use this detailed chronicle of small town life as the basis of one of his nine Preferred Pictures to be made this season. The same story will be presented to Broadway in play form under tho auspices of Brock Pemberton.
