: rD. S. Parkes Cadman ‘Dr. S. Parkes Cadman world’s Greatest Preacher to be at the Chautauqua., : - : o Thep eople of this vicinity are very fortunate in that they are to shave the opportunity of hearing Dr. Cadman at the chatauqua. , Dr. Cadman was known as England’s greatest pulpit orator when he was persuaded to leave London- and take a pulpit in New York. ~His present church ‘and parish in Brooklyn are the centers of ministry recognized at home and abroad as unsupassed for intellectual range and spiritual insight. : o e ~ Dr. Cadman’s great lectures have )fully demonstrated that his utterance is that of a master of oratory and a )student of practical philosophy. These lectures are not the light chaff suit‘ablefor a summer afternoon enter‘tainment, but are meat best suited to ‘those who know how to think. It is safe to say that this lecture by Dr. Cadman which is to be given at the Chautauqua here, will mean more to ‘the mental life of those who appre:ciate the great things of the platform than any s?aker who appeared upon our Chautauqua program in the past.
That Summer Outing.
_The efforts of prominent citizens of Indiana to enlist widespread interest in the Citizen’s Military Training Camp at Camp Knox, Kentucky from July 21st to August 20th cannot be too highly commended. These men are aiding a cause which: will promote good " citizenship and: which will inculcate in the minds of the men who attend a high sense of patriotic devotion and fidelity to the basic virtues of the American citizens.
Applications are being received from boys and men from sixteen to thirtyfive from every part of the state. Attendance at this camp is a r_eal'oppor—tunity for not only the younger boys but for the middle-aged men. . The general appeal of the outdoor life, as well as the Military Traiining and Recreation without expense other than spending money should have a 4 response from the citizens ot Indiana. c -

McCray, it is announced that the state automohile association will pay the §sl -state re gistration fee for any auto owner who will join the association. N check for $ll to the Hoosier State Auto Association is al lthat is necessary for a year’s membership,” states Sect’y Noblet. “Send the regigtration blank properly filled out, sto us and we will pay the state fee. Rogistrars all over the state are authorized to accept memberships in the Hogpsier State Automobile Association on this basis.” Bank Cashier Sentenced. : Ren Warnock, cashier of the Huntertown bank recently robbed, entered a plea of guilty to the embezzlement ot $7,000 of the bank funds at Fort Wayne Tuesday and was sentennced to serve from two to fourteen years in the state prison and disfranchised for ten years. . Warnock has a wife and two. children. 'The case is similar to that of the cashier of the Wood burn bank who pleaded guilty to embezzlement after the institution had been robbed and was sentenced to the penitentiary. It looks as though the robberies may have been planned in both instances to cover the shortages.

MIGHT LEARN FROM FRENCH
American Writer of Opinion There Are Things His Countrymen Could " Profitably Absorb.
They are a wonderful folk, these French, and there is no people from whom. Americans can learn more of the art of living. While we, with our high rents, are harassed by the question of where te live, tHé¥ in spite of their high rents, think only-of how to live. We would do well £0 spend less. thought on the abode and moré 6n-the mode. We could learn from themtto forget our national timidity and4o.djs= cover our next-door neighbors,~says a writer in Leslie’s. i e The contrast between the excited buzz and chatter and gayety that strikes one on. entering even the most homely French restaurant and the frightened and tremulous whispering thrown In between long intervals of dogged eating that goes on in our ewn restaurants is enough to shame any good American, We could learn from them to put aside our little pamphlets on “Facts About Sugar” long enough to enjoy the beauty of a hillside—and still make enough money out of the sugar business. - 3 : Our shopkeepers could learn that politeness does not drive away trade. We could have learned, alas, how to drink and how not to drink: behind swing-doors, - or too strongly or too much. The American business man who hopes to do business with the French must learn to deal with foreigners as well as they do and not to logk upon what seems to him an exaggerated politeness as a rich bit of comedy, a fault of which our business men are, unfortunately, too often guilty. :
WANT VIEW OF WEALTHY Visitors to New York More Interested . in_ Multimillionaires Than in © Architectural Attractions. « The biggest attraction in New York is the multimillionaire. Sightseers from the hinterland-who crowd Fifth avenue buses are not half so interested in such spectacles as the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the great railroad terminal stations, the Woolworth building and other skyscrapers, the long expanse of water front, with its great sea craft, the palaces along the world’s greatest and most gorgeous thoroughfare, or the rabble under the nitrogen lamps of Broadway as they are in getting a first-hand, intimate view of the great captains of industry ahd finance. | So say the men that whirl these sightseers over and across New York by day and by night. . o Sightseeing buses ply the financial district, it is true, ‘but the conductors are as ignorant of who's who down around Wall street as their passengers from Gshkosh, Alfalfa Center or Deer Trail, but Wall street is the de‘mand of the passengers, nevertheless, and when the sightseeing buses reach Wall street they invariably discharge at least. 50 per cent of their cargo, which goes abroad to see the sights for itself.,” ° ; : The sight of .a Vanderbilt or an Astor would repay most of these sightseers, say the bus conductors. A close up of John:D, Rockefeller, Jr., might cause a stoppage of traffic, they declare, and a gllx;npse of J. Pierpont Morgan would fix New York irrevocably in their minds.—New York Sun.
Gets Power Without Coal.
A large paper mill at Vargo, Sweden, was recently rebuilt on the most improved lines. Formerly 2q;om‘ tons of coal were consumed annually, and the problem of maintaining this supply was a very serious one, but at the present time no coal whatever is consumed at the plant. The bollerhouse contains seven' “electric” boilers, each of 3,000 horsepower, and the eurrent enters the boilers at a pressure of 10,000 volts, without having to be stepped down. Each of the boilers is provided with three electrodes, and the coupling arrangements are such that steam generation can ‘be regulated within 5§ per cent. It is stated that full steam pressure can be raised in from five to ten minutes after switching on the current, and considerable .economy in aftendance is obtained, as compared with coal firing. _ _

Whale Bones for Bulldings. 'The scarcity of building material is not worrying Avalon, Calif,, residents, For twenty years several huge whale ribs have been bleaching in the sun in front of the Avalon Tuna club. An enterprising contractor sought the owner of the historic bones. He didn’t want them for a museum, but they would make the supports for a “whale of a bungalette,” he explained. = Canvas, wallboard and flooring have been added to the bones and the popular little Catalina island city has acquired a new shelter for its m 1y visitors. )

TOBAGGO PLANT Developed According to Specifi- - cations Listed in Advance. , i ; | = 5 -_—n New Plant Is Cigar-Wrapper Tobacco " “Combing ~ Desirable Qualities of _Several Existing Varieties and None of Their Defects and Possessing Sev--eral Worth-While Characteristics Unknown in the Older Varieties. . ~ What is claimed to be the first plant actually made to order according to specifications listed in advance, has been developed by Prof. Edward M. East of Harvard for the Connecticut agricultural experiment station at New Haven, Conn. - :
_ The new plant, known as “Round Tip,” is a cigar-wrapper tobacco combining, it Is claimed, the desirable qualities of several existing varieties® and none of their defects and possessing several worth-while characteristics unknown in the_older varieties. It was produced by a scientific application of the laws of heredity, with the investigation of which Professor East has been idegtified for many years. .
"~ New varieties of plants are not particularly rare, it is said, and new names: for old varieties ‘are as common as freckles on a red-headed boy, but in’ the past, according to the Harvard biologists, the new things in the plant world have been more or less accidentul. Crosses, they say, have been made indiscriminately, trusting to Providence that something good would turn up, and occasionally Providence has come to the rescue. : : ‘ . “Building” a Wrapper. 3 - In this case a study of cigar leaf wrappers was made, and the characteristics demanded by grower, manufaeturer and consumer were set down as cold-bloodedly as a builder would plan the requirements for a house. Existing varieties were then examined 'in the field and in the warehouse with the ‘minutest care, seeking those which when combined would give the greatest possible chance of success. Finally it was decided the success of the project depended on crossing the two varieties, Sumatra and broadleaf. .
“The Round Tip,” sald Professor East, “has the large leaf and the close arrangement of leaves characteristic of the broadleaf variety. The leaves grow upright, as do those of the Sumatra, thus eliminating the loss from torn leaves which so often results from the drooping leaves of the other parent. The leaf is even broader than the Su‘matra, and so increases the yield of cigar wrappers. Since the broadleaf is too thick and has too .pronounced a flavor for most smokers, and since the Sumatra is’ too thin and bhas no flavor, the new tobacco was made intermediate in these respects. Finally the Round Tip develops six or seven more leaves than the old varieties, possesses a wonderful root system, making it stand up under winds that lay other tobaccos low, and has a resistance to root rot which came to it by accident rather than by design. ' Has Three Years’' Test,
~ “The Round Tip has been distributed to Connecticut tobacco growers by Dr, Donald® F. Jones, a- former- pupil at Harvard, who is now connected with the ‘Connecticut agricultural experiment station.. It has had three years’ test and has been reported on by some forty-odd planters. : : . “Crops of 2,800 pounds per acre, double the yield of lordinary varieties, have been obtained under exceptional conditions, and on the average 2,000 pounds may be confidéntly expected. [iut what pleases us most is that by this experiment we have demonstrated that the true fundamental principles of plant breeding which we have spent years in studying can be applied to a specific problem with such useful results.”
' Professor East holds the. chair of experimental plant morphology at the Bussey institution, the department of Harvard university devoted to research and instruction in applied biology. He is the author of several volumes of technical papers on heredity, and-in collaboration with Doctor Jones published a work on the effects of “Inbreeding and Outbreeding” ip animals and plants, and the bearing of the results on the upbuilding of nations.
CRUSOE’S ISLAND RESORT Place to Be Converted .Into Health Center by Chilean Government. ~ Juan Fernandez island 450 miles west of Valparaiso, widely regarded .as the spot around which the story of Robinson Crusoe was written, is to be turned into a health resort, according to present plans of the Chilean government. : The island is 13 miles long and 4 miles wide. Vegetation is abundant. Many kinds of fruit thrive there, and the sea in the vicinity swarms with a specles of codfish and quantities of seals. Some years ago the Chilean government attempted to colonize the island, giving free passage to emi- | grants, but the scheme was a failure and the island now has only 200 inhabitants, ; , : Prohibits Teachers Dancing. - Teachers who attend dances during “the school year will'not be re-employed - next year, R.
