AT THE PARTHENON "The Jack-Knife Man" A First National attraction, produced by King VIdor, is announced as the offering at the Parthenon theatre for three days. "The Jack-Knife Man." is a plcturlzation of the novel by Ellis Parker Butler who is favorably known to the majority of American readers through his delightfully humorous novelette, "Figs Is Pigs." The picture deals with the affairs of a quaint colony In a little hamlet on the banks of the Mississippi River and life on a typical shanty-boat along Its banks. Mr. Butler has taken his cahracters from real life, the central one having its inspiration in Mr. Butler's own uncle.

appointment shall be fixed by law by the General Assembly. It seems better for such an officer to be appointed as the best school men are not likely to be good politicians, who can pull the wires in a state convention and land the nomination. Then too, in past years, this nomination has been largely a trading matter to secure or defeat candidates for the other offices. However, it is a fact that only fourteen states appoint their state Superintendents of Public Instruction. The other 34 elect them by popular vote. This ends the amendment and the writer trusts that the voters have paid some attention to these important matter D. J. MORAN. Hammond, Indiana.
