Charles Belman, who is attending Wabash college at Crawfordsville, Ind., is spending a few days with his father, W. C. Belman in Glendale. "UNDER SOUTHERN SKIES." When a play has been presented for seven entire seasons to large and delightful audiences, returning three and four times during that period to many of the cities visited, it is safe to assume that that partcular play is what is called "a great big hit." This is the history of Lottie Blair Parker's play
"Under Southern Skies" which returns to our city on Saturday matinee and
night, Feb. 13th at the Towle opera
house. This play has enjoyed a phe
nomenal prosperity during the seven years of its existence and now is in its
eighth season of continued success. Of all southern plays of recent years "Under Southern Skies" has proven the
most popular. The reason Is not hard
to find. The main story Is one that ap
peals strongly to every heart. It holds
the spectators tense and Interested until the curtain falls. But It Is the manner of telling this story which forms the
great and unusual charm of "Under Southern Skies." The characteristic traits of the southern people are so vividly drawn, by the author, the air of southern beauty, chivalry, romance and gayety so permeate the entire play and production that It seems less a play than an actual presentment of a bit of real life.
AT THE REVIVAL. Rev. A. T. Briggs will preach again
this evening. Mrs. A. K Thompson will
sing. Last evening's meeting served to deepen the consecration of the people
for Christian work and many went out determined to make more of thfeir lives than ever before Now that the weather is fair, great hope is entertained concerning the prosperity and far reaching influence of these well begun meetings. VISITS RELATIVES HERE. Mrs. O. J. Wood of Topeka, Kan., has been spending a few days this week with her sister, Mrs. Cynthia Sohl of South Hohman street. HAVE DELIGHTFUL PROGRAM.

HOLD SPECIAL MEETING. The members of Hammond Hive, No. 2, L. O. T. M., are holding a special
meeting this afternoon in the K. of P.
hall. Business of importance will be transacted at the meeting "THE ROYAL CHEF." W. H. Conley is easily the most interesting of a fine company, which will appear at the Towle opera house, Sunday, Feb. 14 in "The Royal Chef." His portrayal of "Heinrich Lemphauser" is one of the most finished character creations introduced to the Ftage in many a day. Mr. Conley is described as an inventive comedian, keen and energetic and his complete mastery of the rather difficult and laughable mixture of broken English and German dialect is admir
able. The feminine portion Is composed of attractive young singers and
dancers. The original "Broilers, consisting of sixteen young girls of exact sizt and weight, each a dancing expert.
is a component part of the "Chief."
PM
Talented Hammond Instructress, Who Spoke on "Switzerland" Before the Wednesday Night Club Last Night.
Miss" Matilda Elchhorn, teacher of German in the Hammond "high school, delighted an appreciate audience at the Wednesday Night club meeting In the pubiic library, last evening, with a paper on Switzerland. Her elaborate work of the evening was the result f study and her own observations and experiences, gathered a year ago last summer on her travels through Europe. She gave it that artistic touch which" enabled her audience to travel with her over the journey through Switzerland. MisS Elchhorn Is probably as patriotic an American girl as this country would claim, but If there is any room in her heart to love another country
it Is reserved for Switzerland sne told of her ascent of the mountain Jungfrau, and upon another occasion when she and her companions tried
to imitate the guide in descending the mountains. Her paper was full of personal experiences and contained
t enough of the book facts to make a
pleasing blending of the whole.
As Miss Elchhorn said:
Although as the years pass by
1 may forget the details or mat
-visit, there shall remain with me forever that Impression of peace, happiness and contentment which was mine and has continued to come back to me again and again whenever I think of Switzerland. Circumstances may force me to ' spend my life in the most unpleasant surroundings or not. I have beheld the beauty of the Creator's own handiwork, unsullied by the hand of man, and It shall ever return to me to brighten. Inspire and beautify my life. May ' It be .the lot of every one present to- , night to visit Switzerland, that homeland of freedom and beauty.
A. F. Knotts will deliver the next lecture, and has" chosen for his sub
ject, "Social Problems." . Mr. Knotts is
known as an original thinker and what
he will have to- say about social conditions today will undoubtedly be Interesting. Dr. E. M. Shanklin, president of the club, announced that owing to the fact that this is Lincoln week that the club will beet next Sunday afternoon for a Lincoln round-table discussion. Everybody is invited to attend.

discouraging and with a vision of another mothers' meeting at home, perhaps, not so well attended, but nonetheless interesting, they started out on the famous Marathon, race for Hammond. ' . The actual distance from Robertsdale to Homewood, where the Hammond Marathoners reside, is seven miles, but the handicap of a bitter cold wind and of a surplusage of clothing made the distance seem to be all of twentyfour miles. .
There are conflicting reports about
the progress of the runners. Some say
tnat .Judge V. S. Kelter mainatined a
regular Dorando stride during the race,
and others say that they like McDanlel's gait best. Charles Albert Smith's race was nothing to be sneezed at, In

Several of the students had their seats changed yesterday. This will breik up some of the "cozy corners." As there will be no scTiool Friday, the regular chorus work was held yesterday morning. On Friday of next week the bas

Crawfordsville, Renssalaer and other southern points, making a circuit. They will play some of the fastest basketball fives in the state, but they expect to bring the championship back with them. Principal McElroy stated yesterday
that the ninth period was becoming too common. For this reason a new ruling was made, that If a student has his name read three times in succession to remain until 4:30, he will be dismissed from school the following day. The School. In our age literary la becoming Indispensable to advancement. The many examples of illiteracy are not Invoked against learning, but show that learning has Its limitations. Schools do not make men cood or
great. Bacon went the full length when he said that "reading maketh a full man." The school is simply our modern tool for getting an education. But it is only a tool, a tool to him that can handle it. But for him who will not handle it and instead only fool with it, there is no virtue in it. Merely picking it up and laying It down again serves no end. The thing to learn is to wield it skillfully and industriously.
