Waring Due Soon With Orchestra Circle Books Noted Band for a Week’s Stay Here, Waring’s Pennsylvanians, known by name to everyone because of their splendid recordings and more recently to audiences of the Circle theater through their two presentations via Vitaphone, will come to the Circle in person, it has been announced. The definite date has not yet been prepared for general release, but will be forthcoming shortly. The selection of Waring’s comes as a preliminary announcement of the'mammoth eleventh anniversary bill for the Circle. Last year the Circle offered Paul Whiteman’s famous orchestra. This year another attraction of the same magnitude is presented in Waring’s Pennsylvanians. When Waring’s first came into being many years ago, it was literally a little string band, of two banjos, a piano and drums. Those four pieces with the latest development of the orchestra into what is popularly known in musical circles as the greatest stage band in the country, now aggregates a total of eighteen star musicians. Fred Waring, versatile director of the Pennsylvanians, first played one of the banjos in the original Waring’s Banjo orchestra. Tom is the pianist, one of the most capable among modem musicians.

OVERCOMING BAD WITH GOOD TO BE LESSON TITLE HeKe Is Story of Saul's Jealous Hatred of David. The International Liiform Sunday School Lesson for August 7. Overcoming Evil With Good. Teat: 1 Sarj. '.6; 7-14, 17 ’ BY WM. E. GILROY, D. D. Editor of the Concregatlonallst The story of Saul’s jealous hatred and pursuit of David, if it is touched here and there with one’s compassion for a great heardted man in the grip of an insane obsession or with almost uncontrollable gusts of passion, Is brightened by glimpses of David’s magnanimity. It is in these experiences that we have David at his best. The man who could, under such circumstances of danger to his own life, refrain from enmity and regard the attacks upon himself with such courage and complacency reveals qualities of character and strength of soul that are truly noble no matter what less worthy things may have marred his life. Probably David in that unscientific age sensed the fact that Saul in his fits of jealousy was not himself. Abishai is Average Man Abishai in our lesson represents the normal spirit of man in the presence of enmity and strife. He was moved with no larger considerations of vision or of magnanimity of soul. With crude and prosaic calculation he urged David to let him kill Saul in the moment of opportunity, boasting of the fact that he could strike him to the earth with his spear at one stroke without the need of striking him a second time. Here was the plain man of blood, a stranger to higher considerations, thoughtless and coldly brutal. To such men the world has given all too much power. David, though a man of blood, had finer feelings and nobler moods. There was in him something of a playful spirit. He found a certain satisfaction in stealing away Saul’s spear and In taking the cruse of water that had been at his head. Perhaps also in this there was something more than the satisfaction of a nimble-footed and nimblewitted man. He may have had the deeper purpose of revealing his magnanimity and of seeking to turn from himself and from Saul the evils of jealousy and hate. Temporarily at least, David’s magnanimity was not without result. There is a burst of almost pathetic repentance on Saul’s part: “Then said Saul, I have sinned: return, my son David; for I will no more do thee harm, because my life was precious in thine eyes this day; behold, I have played the fool and have erred exceedingly.” Well would it have been for Saul if that repentant mood had continued dominant In his life, but his Jealousy and insane passion were to triumph despite his better nature. David Ahead of Time The course of David in these things and the high ideal that the writer of Israel emphasizes in recording these things in the narrative. are all the more remarkable when one considers the time out of which these stories come. It was not a period when men were given to finer sensibilities or spiritual perceptions. Abishai rather than David was typical of the age. It is in things such as this in the record that one must see revealed the moral and spiritual quality of the Old Testament. You must read these narratives with a view to their high lights to understand the rich idealism that they have given to the world and the way in which they have pointed the souls of men toward the higher and better way in life.
Silly Owl Wisest of Birds Couldn’t Find Way Out of Harmless Chicken Coop.
AiNOTHER illusioQ is shattered. Owls are not the wise old birds we have been taught they were, but are just big dumbbells with sense enough to keep their mouth shut. Some such conclusion was reached by Superintendent Oliver Neal, of the State game reserve in Brown County, when he found a huge horned owl had trapped itself in an innocent chfcken coop. The bird was taken alive, dispatched to the Statehouse and will be sent to the fox farm of Sumner Pallardy, Valley Mills, Ind. Pallardy has several similar pets that have been placed in his keeping by the conservation department. The owl is one of the largest reported in the State. Perched in and improvised cage it gazes on all with an air of superiority out of the eyes the size of a quarter. Yet, caught in the coop it couldn’t find the way out. Neal charges the bird with killing a twenty-pound turkey at the reservation.

GIRLS’ TOES GOING ——•—“—“— + Outlook Bad, Asserts Expert
We’re not going to lose our toes tor a thousand years yet, in the opinion of some Indianapolis chiropodists, but it's no wild guess that the human foot eventually will be toeless if the demand for extreme ill-fltting shoes keeps on, they say. But worse still, Dr. George E. Ksvanaugh, 411 Roosevelt Bldg., foot specialist, even predicts that women (who are greatest offenders) are going to have large ankles and straight, calfless legs if they continue to treat their feet like pincushions! “Men actually have trimmer ankles than women,” he exclaimed. “It’s because men wear shoes that take the strain off the poor ankles and exercise the calf muscles instead. “It may be a little wild to predict that we will lose all our toes, because the men are in no danger. Usually their shoes are correct. But the style of shoes that women demand of shoe salesmen are wrong and It is not the shoe man’s fault, either. They demand them.

“They are pretty, but that is all you can say. The ‘spike’ heels tend to make walking a matter of dragging the feet, not lifting them U PIt throws the weight on the ball of the foot, raises the arch to an unnatural height, and straightens out all the toes, making them help--1 ess.” What Is known to chiropodists as the "anterior metatarsal arch” Is causing 90 per cent of the trouble, Dr. H. P. Smith, specialist, 18 E. Washington St., explained. The extreme high heels throw all the weight on that arch and limit the use of the other parts of the foot. “The only use womeir seem to have of their toes these days is to keep their hose from going up over the foot,” he said. “Men are to blame,” Dr. Kavanaugh admitted. “We like to see women in that kind of shoes. And most women willfully get their shoes to small. High heels are all right for dress, but they are terrible for the working girl.”
Dr. W. F. Book Helps Students With ‘Hour to Study’ Class. Bu United Press BLOOMINGTON, Ind., Aug. 6. Classroom failure usuallyl is just a common case of not knowing how to read, in the opinion of Dr. W. F. Book, of the educationa department of Indiana University. In reading over tests he conducted during the past year with 900 Indiana University freshmen and 214 upper classmen, .he found that only 21 per cent of the freshmen tested could give the title they had read in a standardized assignment, or formulate any of- the chief problems discussed. The girl freshies were better than the boys, however, they being able to master 43 per cent of the points while the boys were only able to master 34 per cent of the points made by the author. The poorest readers could remember only 3 per cent of the points made in the chapter read. Not being satisfied with this examination into the reading ability of the students, Dr. Book conducted “How to Study” classes. In order that he could show the students how their reading difficulties might be overcome. The result was. that in the short space of a semester Dr. Book's two classes in “How to Study” improved their reading ability to 102 per cent and some individuals were able to improve their reading efficiency to the high mark of 250 per cent.
