FINDING THE HUMAN TOUCH IN POETRY Rupert Brooke’s Pen Is Still, but the Beauty of His Poetry Lives On and Becomes Classical in Its Truth as Its Fame Goes Marching On. BY WALTER D. HICKMAN Rupert Brooke sleeps the sleep of years in his grave in Scyros, but his fame goes marching on. ' Thousands of us will never have a chance to visit that '-’■rave, but we can have his collected poems in our homes. 1 have often been asked who publishes his complete works rnd I find that Dodd, Mead and Company have a beautiful edition of Brooke’s poems.

I favor this edition because his poems are grouped between year periods which shows his human and artistic growth. In the 1908-1911 group you will find .“Day That I Have Love,” “Wagner,” “The Vision of the Archangels,” “Failure,” “Seaside” and many others of that period. In 1908-1911 group, you will find the sonnets, also “Dust,” “Kindliness,” “Dining Room Tea," “Day and Night,” “Dead Men’s Love,” “Town and Country” and others. In 1914 group, one encounters his thoughts on war, such as “Peace,” “Safety,” “The Dead,” “The Soldier” and “The Treasure.” It remains for “The South Seas” division to give us “The Great Lover” which is a classic in its human charm and beauty. Then under “Other Poems,” we find “The Busy Heart,” “Love,” “Unfortunate,” “Home,” “The Way That Lovers Use” and the beloved “The Funeral of Youth,” which reminds one of “Everyman” In short verse. This volume also includes “Grantchester,” a biographical note and an introduction by George Edward Woodberry. The Human Touch Rupert Brooke lived such few years, but he crowded so much life, beauty, thought and action into his

SAYS RHEUMATIC ACHES AND PAINS HAVEVANISHEB Konjola Gave Blessed Relief to Local Citizen; Cleansed Poison From System, He States. “I developed an awful case of rheumatic trouble, which came to be so painful that I could hardly stand it, and yet, as bad as I had been, this Konjola compound seemed to cleanse all the poisons from my system and blessed relief

MB. JOHN W. CARVER came so quickly that I was surprised,” said Mr. John W. Carver, well-known Indianapolis citizen, living at 515 North Delaware Street, this city, during a receent conversation with The Konjola Man, who is at Hook’s Drug Store, Illinoiis and Washington Sts., where crowds are calling daily to learn more about this amazing new medical preparation. “Yes, my rheumatic aches ana pains have vanished,” said Mr. Carver, “and I had no idea that such a short treatment of any medicine would so completely relieve my trouble. “I had been affected mostly across my back and through my hips. When I would go to move a certain way, either when walking or turning sideways in bed, I would get a sharp, terrific pain that seemed to come suddenly like a shock, and it certainly was miserable. Os course, I ached continually, but when these sharp pains would grab me I felt like I just couldn’t stand the suffering another minute. If I attempted to rise from a sitting position, I had to hold to something and be careful not to twist a certain way. At nights I was subject to these attacks, which broke up my rest so that I could seldom get a night’s sleep. I would wake every morning feeling so terrible that it was misery to even dress myself. 1 couldn’t even fire the furnace—and I tell you this rheumatism is awful. “I began on this Konjola as soon as I learned what it was doing for so many Indianapolis people, ana as I said, it relieved me very quick. I get up in the mornings and dress without a bit of pain now, and 1 sleep fine all night long and can bend and twist any way I care to. Thq pains in my back, hips ana limbs are all relieved, and its a blessing now that I have no fear of those awful attacks of pain ana suffering as I experienced before. I’ve been helped in many othei ways by Konjola, and my whole body has anew leeling of health all over. I can put in a good day’s work now, and feel like doing lots of lifting and other things that require strength. “After all this relief from rheumatism, I surely take pleasure in making a public indorsement of Konjola.” The Konjola Man is at the Hook. Drug Store, Illinois and Washington Sts., Indianapolis, where he is daily meeting the public and introducing and explaining the merit! of this remedy. Konjola is sola by every Hook store in this city and by all druggists throughout this section.—Advertisement. * V

life that his record reads like one wonderful power, touched here and there by the strains of a great symphony. probably the blue waters near Scyros are keeping up that symphony of his life as he sleeps the great sleep. I notice in my volume of his poems, that my edition totals the eighty-sixth thousand and since then the record has gone up. Brooke was born in Rugby on Aug. 3, 1887, and died on a French hospital ship at Scyros on Friday, April 23, 1915, and as Margaret Lavington writes, “died for England.” Brooke was beloved by all those who knew him—he knew the great and those just human. Even when he was in training camp he wrote several war sonnets which had more truth in them about war than hundreds of histories about war contain. I became interested in the life of Brooke and his poetry through Dick Halliburton. Halliburton tells you about his visit to Brooke’s grave in “The Glorious Adventure.” To me, Brooke is the most human and the most beautiful of all the modern poets. You have missed great beauty and a wonderful friend if you are not acquainted with this glorious boy who now sleeps on and one, but whose poetry goes marching on. Indianapolis theaters today offer: “Wings” at English’s; Weir’s Elephants at Keith’s; Oriental Four Aristocrats at the Lyric; “Isle of Forgotten Women” at the Colonial; “Chicago After Midnight” at the Apollo; “The Big Parade” at the Ohio; “The Valley of the Giants” at the Indiana and “The Shepherd of the Hills” at the Circle. GRANT BANK CHARTER New Ft. Wayne Institution Given State Approval. A charter was granted the South Side State Bank, of Ft. Wayne, by the State Charter Board Wednesday. Capital is $25,000. Charters of the Citizens Bank of Michigan City, and the Oakton Bank, were renewed. Petition for a charter filed by the Maywood Building and Loan Association of Hammond, was denied.

Little Green Capsules Stop Rheumatic Agony Hook’s Dependable Drug Stores Offer 5-Day Trial on Money-Back Basis. There's nothing in the world that brings such quick and complete relief from the pain and misery that makes life almost unbearable as those tiny green capsules known from coast to coast as Allenrhu Number 2. More than one man and woman whom horrible rheumatism has been carrying down to helplessness—suffering the torture of the damned can testify to this. All you have to do Is take one tiny capsule each hour for the first ten hours the next day one every two hours for 14 hours then take as directed. In spite, however, of all the claims made for Allenrhu Number 2—in spite of the remarkable results obtained by others these little green capsules must prove themselves in your particular case. For that reason Hook's Dependable Drug Stores and good druggists everywhere have been authorized to make this guarantee: If after taking one full bottle Allenrhu Number 2 as directed you are not satisfied—go back and get your money.—Advertisement.

. Many Enter Small Foot Contest

Small feet—from the beginning of time the mark of aristocracy and high breeding—are just as frequently found in Indianapolis as in any other American city, as results in The Cinderella Contest are showing. By Monday morning there was a stack of “small feet” outlines waiting on the Cinderella editor’s desk of The Times, and every mail since then has teen bringing in other entries. The Cinderella contest is being held by Carrie of the team of Carrie and Eddie, featured dancers in the Petite Revue at B. F. Keith’s this week, to determine whether there are women in Indianaoplis who have feet as small or smaller than those of this dainty dancer. If there are none as tiny as Carrie's. 'then the smallest in Indianapolis will be counted as the prizewinning pedal extremities, and will win, as the first prize, a pair of $lB I. Miller shoes. In order to enter the contest it is only necessary to send to the Cinderella contest editor of The Times an outline of ycur foot without a

Why suffer with Rheumatism?

ARE you one of chose unfortunates who suffer with pains in your muscles and joints, commonly called rheumatism, making you miserable, less efficient, interfering with your working hours, ruining your sleep? You may have tried many things without relief. Why not try S.S.S.? S.S.S. is extracted from the fresh roots of medicinal plants and herbs and gives to Nature what she needs in building you up so that your system throws off the cause. For more than 100 years S.S.S. has been giving relief in thousands of cases, as testified to in unsolicited letters of gratitude.

! shoe, so that some idea of the rela- [ live size of contestant's feet may be gained. The owners of the twenty-six smallest feet in Indianapolis will then be notified to come to Keith’s theater on Saturday evening, where sizes will be verified and Carrie will present the prize to the winner. Remember, the first award is an order for a choice of any $lB pair of I. Miller shoes. The “runners-up” that is the twenty-five contestants whose feet are next smallest in size, will each be given two tickets to Keith’s theater for the week of Feb. 5. All contestants must be more than eighteen years of age, however. By way of information, Carrie’s dainty feet are shod in either a number 13 in a child’s size shoe or a number lin a woman’s shoe. The average size shoe worn by most women of Indianapolis is a 5 or 6. Carrie, however, weighs only ninetythree pounds and is only four feet eleven Inches tall, so dainty feet are to be expected of the diminutive miss. However, The Times believes that there are just as small feet cn Indianapolis girls and women, and takes this method of proving it. So send in your foot outlines and let's show Carrie that the Hoosie women are certainly Cinderella’s twin sisters, when it corner to foot sizes.

You know rheumatism can not be “rubbed” away “I suffered from rheumatism for a good many years. At times my joints would swell so, I couldn't walk. I tried almost everything. Went to Hot Spring; .... then finally decided to try S.S.S. I took a course. Jn a short time the rheumatic pains entirely left me. lam now in perfect health, and want to add that I have tried all kinds of medicines but I think S.S.S. is the best.” Earl C. Campbell, 115 West Main frtreet, Johnson City, Tenn. i All drug stores sell S.S.S. in two sizes. Get the larger size. It is more economical.
