KNOW YOUR STATE INDIANA has a greater proportion of tuberculin tested and disease free milk qows than any other State. The State is committed to a policy of eradicating tuberculosis and Is encouraged by a Federal policy which pays a part of the cost of inspection and of condemned cattle.

?THE GOVERNMENT AND THE AIR Asa result of the failure of the Sixty-Ninth Congress to enact radio control legislation, the Federal Government will continue indefinitely in itj role of a high pressure salesman for privately owned and operated radio companies. It will continue to drum up radio dispatching business at the Government stations, and to turn that business over to private companies when it lias reached profitable proportions. Under the present law controlling Government radio stations, which survived in the rush of business at the close of the session, commercial business can be handled if there is no private station within a radius of twenty-five miles. When a private station is installed within this radius, the Government ;ls automatically ruled out of the commercial field, f Under this arrangement, according to Senator C. G. Dill of Washington, who failed in his attempt to secure passage of radio regulation legislation, the private companies can exclude the Government from the^ commercial fielti whenever they desire by setting up & station within the required* radius. In explaining the position of the Government stations, benatoi ;T)ilI said “One Government station near San Francisco a ydar ago had receipts of Approximately $98,--000. The Radio Corporation put a station within the ‘twenty-five-mile zone and, of course, no commercial business could be done after that.” Os the various arrangements for Government ownership and operation of industry, the present radio situation is believed to present a plan almost The Government sets up the plant and does the pioneering to get am increased '.volume of commercial business, and then fades out of the picture when the private companies -'decide that the field is one which would be profitable v-to them. JOHN D. AND HAPPINESS On July 8, John D. Rockefeller, a little old man in Tarrytown, N. Y., will pass his 87th milestone. Rockefeller has made milliops. He has known ' the struggle of poverty, the thrill of success, and has watched his money mount into uncoiJhted piles. But he has a human chord in him that responds • quickly to the touch of progress or of need. The :i same hand that gives little children shiny dimes also \ has passed out $600,000,000 in donations to help . make a better world. Rockefeller has moved some of his mountains of gold to the task of increasing human knowledge about food stfpply, clothing, shelter, sanitation, pub- # ►lie health, commerce and manufacture. He has given part of his millions to help the on■’ward march of government and law so that the hand .of justice may reach farther. He has set aside sums for advancing language and literature,'science and philosophy, art and refinement, morality and religion. t The Rockefeller Foundation, the Laura Spellman Foundation and his various medical gifts offer i a way to people to attain higher happiness in life. " The basis of his charity is: Progress toward Hapl piness. He hag held out to the world a chance for i’better things. The people must help themselves to "realize it. CIRCUMSTANCES Circumstances alter cases. But circumstances | don’t make the man who makes the circumstances. | Look around at the people you know. Colonel Blublud, the great statesman, probably owes his P position to accident. While he was in college, he ; found he could play poker at night if he took law, beqause the law classes didn’t start until afternoon.Mrs. Brown, the social leader, would have mar- . rled a poor young man if he had come to this city * -instead of going to a neighboring village. But the | young fellow went to the neighboring village, so the ►■girl never met him. She married Mr. Brown. Now - she’s a social leader. ( f All so silly. All hanging upon threads so slen"der. All apparently controlled by circumstances. ( Yet, there are personal factors. The ambition f|which made Colonel Blublud a great statesman would have made him a great doctor, merchant, engineer. The good sense and determination which made -’'Mrs. Brown a social leader would have won her recs ogni|ion in any walk of life. Circumstances don’t make the man who makes tithe circumstances, . TEXAS IS A GARDEN The cattlemen of Texas are in a complacent mood, top the grass is plentiful and. the great cattle c country of the southwest part of the State, usually ■ a vast expanse of sunburned plain and hill, is a VeriStable garden. And now the grass is thick and long and succulent —food .in plenty for hundreds of thousands of grazing cattle —more than enough, in fact. The abnormal rains this spring are the cause. sCattlemen say that, not in several years has there ■been so much vegetation in the country between San Antonio and El Paso. Last year was a year of drought. Rut this year they anticipate rich profits, and many Is the mortgage that will be lifted in Texas, many are the gilt-edged bonds that will be bought And,many the buying spree planned. • ,t Beef raising is a precarious occupation; unfavorable weather can shrink up all the profits; a cattle -’disease can play havoc. But the breeders of the -famed Texas longhorn are in for a period of rcjoic- - ing, and we who buy and eat their beef are glad. , ! 1 / f- WHAT’LL HE DO? i we criticise the order of Big Bambino Musso- ;;, practically suppressing all news, 'it may be rrht we are prejudiced. Perhaps were are. But | thought do.es occur to us that Mussolini may be ) „ry some day that he issued the order. r For instance, suppose another Englishwoman should takn_a pot shot at the Imperial and dictatorial

nose. MussoJini would he required to utter the proper words for the benefit of history. What was it he said the other time? “I regret I have but one nose to give for!my country!” Was that, it? Or was it “Lafayette, it is still here!” —referring to the nose. At any rate a great and Important man is required to utter great and important words on an occasion of this kind. And there is a fair chance that Mussolini will be faced wtth the necessity again some day. He may have the words all ready right now. But, if the Italian newspapers can print what’s the use? , f TOO MUCH CREDIT? A prominent farmer in Missouri fails to the extent of $1£)O,OO0 to $150,000, and involves two banks, j two commission houses, a clergyman relative and, many neighbors and friends. “Too much, credit and the irresistible fascination of trading in futures,” were the self-advanced reasons he gave. The system of trading in grain futures can hardly be blamed for his failure, nor can easy credit. If the futures were abolished, a man could always find a poker game or a Monte Carlo ,if he wished to exercise his gambling tendencies. And let us not rail at easy credit for it is an ideal of trust and faith that is commendable. The sad fact is that the man has played and lost, with his own money and with other people’s. HE ’LL GET ALONG A young man the shores of Lake Erie bought himself a sailboat with which to while away some happy hours on the water. Two or three days after he bought it someone stole it. Now that was a sad thing to happen to any young man who has just bought a boat. But being a., man of action, the erstwhile yachtsman wasted no time in idle reflection and crying over spilt milk, hut hied himself to an airplane field where he chartered a plane and flew over the lake in search of his stolen craft. He fofind it, beached at a port some miles away. We are willing to wager that this enterprising ybung man will in the world. ALL’S WELL THAT— There's a good side to everything, and almost any qld cloud can be found to have a silver lining. These ancient bromides are by the heavy ’rainstorm that swept over the middle west. Early newspaper stories described it as something in the nature of ajcalamity. It washed away bridges, inundated dwellings and did all kinds of damage. But now the farmei'S are referring to it as "the million-dollar rain.” They will get at least a million dollars more in crops this summer because of the downpour. So it wasn’t all bad news, after all. If you want to eat a sandwich without having a woman say, "Gimme a bite,” don’t get married. Latest fad for snappy dressers is two belts, both being worn Just above where one should be used. Here’s a hair-raising bit of news. San Francisco woman poisoned by hair tonic asks SIO,OOO. St. Louis man of 25 had four wives. Probably one of these congenial fellows who can’t say “No.” ■ JmJm There’s one thing about a stolen flivver. You can’t identify it by Sight. But you can by sound. Earthquake on the island of Malta. Doesn’t matter. We just wonder if cows there give Malta milk. To remove freckles, have a date with a man who needs a shave. They say the farm crisis will increase the cost of living. Guess will. Everything does. Locomotives give four puffs for every turn of the driving wheels, so they should quit smoking so much. , Women are brave. In London, one married a man named Marmaduke.

regarding lawyers By MRS. WALTER FERGUSON Clarence Darrow, world famous barrister, has made public a statement in W'hich he advises young men to seek another profession than that of the law. As usual Mr. Darrow gives some excellent reasons for his line of thought.* However, it would be easy to suggest even-simpler ones. There are entirely too many lawyers in this country now. We are surfeited with them and suffer from their enthusiasm and energy because out of the- tens of thousands of them, only a very sm'all percent are mentally capable of adding distinction to themselves or prestige to thejr country. I During the last decade boys have been inclined toward the law because so many of those able men who hav# made history 'for us have belonged to this profession. They often forget that these great minds made the law—that the law did not make them. And nowadays one frequently, sees very mediocre men through some stroke of fortune climb from lowly places in life to positions as corporation lawyers, with, yearly salaries in six figures. For, in spite of the fact that a great many able and fine men follow this profession, the law does point an easy way for worthless and dishonest fellows to live without much labor. The country is running over with mentally deficient men who have the sign ‘ Attorney at Law” hanging before their offices. And a lot of these jackleg legal lights, if they happen to stand in with the powers tljat be are afforded opportunities to pick up nice sums of money in ways which are far from what the most of us would call legitimate. Too much chicanery gets by in the name of the law these days. If etery graduate who wished to enter this profession would consider it as a dignified and intelligent medium of aid to his Government and of assistance to the downtrodden of his fellows instead of as a quick and easy way to riches, the laymen would not look with so much criticism upon this calling. Another thing which Mr. Darrow failed to recall is that lawyers make up the bulk of men who run for office in this country, which appears another splendid reason why we wish a lot of our boys would decide) on the plumbing profession.

Miss Edythe Elliott and Scenic Artists Are Responsible for Success of Drama

By Walter D. Hickman The success of “The Broken Wing,” as presented by the Berkell Players this week,/ goes to Miss Edythe Elliott, leading woman, and the two scenic actists, Eddie Eddie and Tom Adrian Cracraft. In bringing the Elliott edition of the heroine, Inez Villera, before the

footlights Miss Elliott uses those tricks of her profession which the playwright grants her in this play. I noticed with what ease Miss Elliott put over the love idea of this girl of Mexico, who thought that an aviator was sent to her from - the sky to be her white husband. She knows not his name, but, seeing "B. V. D.” on his underwear, decides that ”B. V. D.” is

Milton Byron

the name of her sweetheart flying man. Miss Elliott; is probably as sure of herself in both dialect and characterization- as she has ever been. She makes this character a pleasant example in pleasant acting with all the "heart work necessary to put the character across. You know that it isn’t a far cry from Luana in “The Bird of Paradise” to Inez in "The Broken Wing." The motive of both characters Is the same. From a scenic standpoint, the production il one of atmospheric beauty. It Is true that the airplane crash In the first act was not quite as effective on the opening night as it will be. You know that stage erasjies are always better when all the effects get work. But at that, the crash on the opening night had same thrills. The settings are sjplendid, regular road show stuff. Milton Byron is cast as Phillip Marvin, the aviator, who loses his memory. Doesn’t give Byron such a great chance but he builds up the mystery element of the story. Was Impressed with the work of Robert St. Clair as Sylvester Cross. He knows the right tempo of the play and keeps it going at the right pace while on the stage. The cast Is as follows: Gen. Paufilo Asuilar Dick Elliott Bassillio j. K. Marlow Sylvester Cros Robert St. Clair Ouicbita Mildred Hastings Inez Villera Ed.vthe Elliott Luther Farley Herbert Dobbins Captain Inn.icencio Dos Santos... Bob Kav Jerry Waldron William V. Hull Phillip Marvin Milton Byron Cecilia Jyes La Rue Helen West Bernice Marsobtis “The Broken Wing” is on view all week at English’s. •I- -I- I* CONCERNING A VERY NOISY AND LOUD PLAY "Puppy Love” isn’t much of a play. It js filled with noise, old stage formulas worked over in new dress and about everything else from a "souse” scene to an automobile crash. Last night as the Stuart Walker Company "acted at” this noisy mess of alleged sentiment, cider and other things, I wondered that the play ar-. rived as far as Indianapolis'. The program states that Adelaide Matthews and Martha Stanley wrote the play. I guess the boiler works furnished the noise and the screamlrtg in two of the acts. "Puppy Love” Is sentimental bunk and Is not even clever. Os course,

Placing Human Test to ‘Book Nobody Knows’

By Walter D. Hickman Lightning, they say, never strikes twice in the same place. Probably true hut it seems to me that the literary lightning of Bruce Barton has struck twice in the success place. It is difficult to follow one real big success with another. Barton first became world wide recognized with "The Man Nobody Knows” and now he has followed tt with “The Book Nobody Knows.” Ilis first book was concerned with Jesus and his second book with the Bible. We have been humanizing Christ in modern controversy for a few years. Even college professors have been tossed from their lecture stands in recent years for their verdict on the Bible. To really get at this new Barton book, it is necessary for me to do some plain talking in order to explain certain ideas of mine concerning it. In the first pJace I have always approached the Bible In search of certain beauty. I have always found it. In its basic conception, to have the best plan of living ever given the world. Years and years ago, I remember that I was taken to the woodshed by my father and was given to understand that I approached certain passages of ths Bible with too much glee. This rather personal encounter with my father In no way changed my opinion.

A Confession And today my father will not be able to take Bruce Barton to the woodshed when he reads Barton as follows: “Without this wise choice on the part of Solomon we probably never should have tho Proverbs; hut something more than inspired knowledge went Into them. They bear evident© of experience with every phase of human nature and conduct. Some of them, as might be imagined from Solomon’s own record, contain warnings against the unrighteous woman.’* And again: “Most of the Proverbs could hardly he called religious. They are the shrewd guideposts to wordly wisdom, by which a man may make his way through life with most profit to himself and least discomfort to other people.” In speaking of the Song of Songs, Barton writes: “When you see how diligently certain annotators have worked to squeeze all the life and humanity out of the Bible you wonder how the Book lasted so long.” Real Thought I like this Barton book because he drives home the Bible as human reading. Right in the beginning of "The Book Nobody Knows," Barton nails four great, tresaurera to be found in

Stage Verdict ENGLISH’S Miss Edythe Elliott and the two scenic artsits deserve the credit for "The Broken Wing” being an enjoyable success. KElTH’S—"Puppy Love” is a very noisy and} ridiculous play. LYRIC —Three real winners on this bill with Romeo and His Dancing Dolls taking the lead with ease. ' PALACE—Florence Gast and assisting dancers have an act of merit.

you will laugh, but some of us howl when a fat comedian throws a pie into the face of another. And this play has the pie, but it isn't tossed. From a scenic standpoint the sh<|w was splendid. George Meeker was not sure of his lines or his business. He slowed action when it should be speeded. Larry Fletcher has a role that does not suit him. In fact, such a part would hardly fit anybody. The three who stand out in "Puppy Love” are Ricca Scott, Vivian Tobin and Teresa Dale. ' "Puppy Love” is the lightest possible summer entertainment. An electric fan would blow It away. I certainly do not care for this theatrical dish this week. Have your own idea about this one. At Keith’s all week. •!• + -IREAL DANCING ACT TOPS NEW BILL AT THE LYRIC It is pleasant to record that Adelaide and Hughes have created a dancing act of real merit in the offering/ "Romeo and His Dancing Girls.” So there will be no confusion of purpose, Adelaide and Hughes are

not in the act and are not so announced. The lead work is done by Robert Jewett, who has a good stage appearance, seems to have the willingness as well as the ability to work all the time. And that is something these warm days. The act is so made up that I can agree with the thought that it would be a pleasure to work in such routine. There is no cheap hokum present.

either in material or talent. The eight girls are splendid ensemble dancers, proved by the soldier drill and dance number, infact by all of their work. Jewett has a comedy song which leads up to the soldier drill •number. This show has class and merit a yard wide. As good a dajice offering as I have seen this season. There is another dance offering on the bill, that of Jay Kay and girls. It is a combination of trick comedy stuff, a few songs and some dancing. Not' a knockout, but one of those light little summer offerings. There are two other real hits on the bill which should be given credit.

WEEKLY BOOK REVIEW

the Bible as follows: A bird’s-eye i view of the development of civiliza- ' tion; containing some of the greatest | literature of all ages; the best of all text books in human nature and finally, "we have the story of the most successful life ever lived on this planet, a life that changed the course of human thought and that still is able, after more than nineteen hundred years to transform individuals, communities and nations.” I believe in a human understanding of tho Bible. I do not consider | such an understanding of the Bible as being unreligious, foul, foolish or deserving a whipping in a woodshed.. The second that I understood the Bible as tho best human way of living, then and there, it seems to me, j I permitted the book to do a real service for me. It gave me a human understanding of life and death. I believe that “The Book Nobody Knows” fc*. as great and helpful to .the millions who are not mentally changed to tradition. A great human book. “The Book Nobody Knows” is published by The Bobbs-MerrlU Company of this city. Sells for $2.50 a copy.

ancing and human body tossing work which is the real article. An! act which will hold you in your seats. The other deliberate winner is Quinn, Binder and Roy, an act having the services of two men and a woman. One of the men have a comedy fall which is clever. The act works us to a good finish, holding interest all the way. Their burlesque dancing work has a certain "kick” to it. Good act. Mary Eaves—when I approach consideration of this woman I pause for a second. To appreciate and understand her work. I would suggest that she be studied on the Impulse of the moment. She keeps up a running conversation, whicli probably is not the same in any one show. She attempts to adjust herself to each audience. She thinks rapidly and uses the method of panning herself when her material doesn't knock 'em out of their seats. Some may think that she might be panning the audience. Not my way of judging this woman, because she is too good a showman to do that. Two men hold the wire in their mouths while Emma Raymond does her vire walking act. At least this is something different. Lucas and Logan use material that strikes me as very ancient and far from clever. The movie comedy is "Ills Private Life ’ with Lupino Lane. At the Lyric all week. I ’l' *l* LOOKING OVER NEW PALACE EVENTS With the aid of four young women dancers Florence Gast at the Palace today and tomorrow is offering some excellent entertainment in the form of the dance. The act opens very neatly with the four girls in costumes that represent, rather artistically, the suits worn by convicts. The numbers then alternate with Miss Gast and the girls in different specialties. Os the specialty dances a toe dance by Miss Gast and a dance with a Russian touch by one of the girls was the best. They have several good formation dances and the act as a unit has entertainment value. Radiology, a bit of satire on the radio craze, is an act wherein two men make the uncertainties of radio reception furnish the base for all their laughs. One of the men has a large radio set on the stage and the other is inside it. By turning the dials all sorts of things Issue from the loudspeaker. Dewey and Rogers, a man and woman, offer comedy which the> have worked around the efforts ot a city man in the country trying to raise bees.

Were any nicknames applied to Grover Cleveland while he was the President of the United States? t He was nicknamed “Man of Destiny” and “Stuffed Prophet.” “Man of Destiny” alluded to his rapid rise in political life from a comparatively unknown man in 1881 (Mayor of Buffalo, N. Y.), to the highest office of the land when he was elected President three years later. “Stuffepi Prophet” was a political designation adopted by the New York Sun in the campaign of 1892, which alleged that Cleveland was “stuffing” the< public with airy nothings by his various prophecies regarding tariff reform and sound money, with “great benefits” to the country.

• By M. E.

But what is the use of trying to measure such things by the dollar mark? You mint a coin of the same weight and substance for a thousand years and call it by the same name! but you cannot make it buy the same amount of butter, coal, meat or corn.
