EVANS WOOLLEN | - By Meredith Nicholson “How's Woollen? He was an unusually able student when he was in college. He has a sinewy mind.” ' The speaker was one of the most distinguished members of the faculty of Yale University; the time twentyfive years ago; the place a farm in the Connecticut Hills. I had stopped for a day to pay my respects to-the eminent scholar and naturally he asked me about Indiana men who had sat under his teaching. That word “sinewy” has remained with me, as a happy characterization of the vigorous intellectual powers of Evans Woollen. And now that he’ has become a candidate for United States senator in his native state I am moved to exercise the right of an old friendship to say a few things about him which are not generally known. I have known him for forty years. My grandparents were friends of his grandparents in Marion County many years before the Civil War. Both his father and mothér were countryborn and country-bred. Evans was his mother's family name. Both Evans and Woollen are names scattered far back through the records of picneer Indiana. : : I have been amused to find in the Republican press references to Evans Woollen as a banker and a capitalist with the implication that he is to be counted among the spoiled darlings of the rich. Every nickel he owns has been earned by his own exertions. He took his college course partly on borrowed money and the rest he earned by tutoring and doing other jobs in his vacation. Both his- father and mother were endowed with unusual mental gifts. They were not bent upon money-making but lived for the better things of life. “Plain living and high thinking” was the rule of the Woollen home. :

Woollen struck hard sledding when he came home from college but he turned himself diligently to the business. of trying' to make a place for himself in the world. The law was his goal, but his needs were immediate and urgent. He took such employment as offered and sometimes carried on several jobs at once. I was just beginning newspaper work on the Indianapolis Sentinel when he joined the staff as reporter. [ don’t know when he slept in those days, for his newspaper connection was only one of several employments and his work days were twenty-four hours lone. - To me he has still the look of earn: est, indomitable youth that challenged y admiration in those early hard years. How the man worked! And what a. fine spirit he brought to all his undertakings. And he remains the most conscientious man I have ever known He never skimpad a job In his life. That sinewy mind, which they admired and still remember at Yale, has a way of taking firm hold on every quesiion and wrestling with it, testing it in every way. He hasn’t 8 grasshoepper intelligence; he doesn’t Jump at conclusions. I have consulted him on every conceivable guestion in ‘the course of time and always with satisfaction. If he isn’t certain he will say sO. His yes or no is uttered in the same tone, but either is definite and final.

Fate has played some curious tricks with Woollen. After much labor and effort he had got himself started in the law when an Indianapolis bank found 'itself in need of counsel—that is to say a lawyer who would also pass upon credits. That's how he became a banker. He is, I suppose, the ablest political economist and financier in all this western country. These were the departments in which he specialized .in college and he has fortified theory with broad practical experience. The bank employed him because of his varied abilities, good Judgment and unquestioned integrity. When he took his place in the bank he had only enough stock to qualify him for a place on the directorate. He was hired as an expert, much as an industrial enterpriseé employs a capable engineer. Ten years after he left college, Yale was still trying to coax him back with a view to preparing him to succeed the eminent William Graham Sumner in the chair of ‘political econfmy. The last time the offer came remember our talk about it. The college offered to send him abroad for a year to study before he joined the faculty. I advised him to accept. He refused and was right in refusing. Woollen" 1s a' Democrat by convie‘tion. His family were-all Republicans even to his remotest cousins. It would have been much to his interest when he was starting out in life if ‘he had proclaimed himself a Republican. But his ideals led him else‘where. It has always been his way to think for himself with that very capable thinking machine with which Almighty God endowed him. ~ The people of Indiana need not ‘expect any ‘comedy or bunk from Evans Woollen as he makes his campaign. He knows why he iz a Democrat and with a fine economy of words he will tell the folks about it. ‘Woollen makes you think. In my long and intimate acquaintance 1 always find myself trylng to appear .sane and sensible when I talk to him. I he were to summarize his political faith I think he might say that what ‘heé wants are equal rights and justice for all the people of America. 7 ‘Woollen i 8 not one of the roaring good fellows who puts his arm .round you and tglgpb you funny stories. His charm is of & different sort. . He is a gentleman with all the simplicities and sincerities connoted by the word. A l:nwof'l;ma : !Igvalllties \l«ahd ympathies is Woollen. He has given ; g’%g#%f his time and strength to furthering good causes. He fs a man ‘who inspires 'aMection—who gives *& W his hand with an engaging ‘frankness and anhd“o‘k?s s -pe,efil!l;;.r ‘winning smile and makes you his _ Leston Sermon 11:00 A. M. meeting §:00P. M.

| MARD TO INTERRUPT SERVICE Common Mistake That Wireless Com= * munication Can Be Easily In Many suppose that it is possible for an enemy to disrupt and suspend all wireless communication at will by producing very powerful waves of irregular length; in other words, by inter ference or “Jamming.”’ According to Commander F. G. Loring of the British navy, such tactics are seldom sdo: ‘cessful. It is very hard, if not impossible, to “jam” a well-organized wireless service, for there are maay ways, both technical and methodical, {to defeat such an intention. - If the enemy attempts interference, he must | put his own wireless coppmunication | completely out of action for the time | being, with no certain prospect of se- | riously inconveniencing the communi- | cation of his opponent. Commander Loring also: believes that the risk of | having the signals of the fleet inter: {cepted by an enemy is very slight, - “Co-operation between opératers, with jfull knowledge of each other’s meth. | ods, is extremely important when han- | dling difficult code messages, and the {more skilled the organization; the {more difficult it is for a strange op: | erator to take down with the neces: | sary accuracy the groups of a cod:- | message. He cannot ask for the : repetition of doubtful groups, and he | has no intimate and daily familiarity | with the methods of the sender to ast sist him in his task. And, after all, | Biving the enemy every advantage, , giving him a perfect record of the sig- | nals, the key of the code to his hand, {and equal facility of skill and lan- | Buage to translate it for use—a most | important combination, it must be ad- | mitted—he has still failed to prevent “|the allimportant information from , reaching its destination.” — Youth's _ | Companion. ‘

pRIGIN LOST IN ANTIQUITY Phrase That Has Become Famous Has " Been Credited to Many Think- : ers and Whriters. “Germany’s place in the sun” is a phrase usually credited to the former Chancellor von Buelow. But how far back does it go? - A writer to the New. York Evening Post quotes from Ernest Renan’s “Life of Jesus,” “The situation of a poor man is dreadful; literally there is no ;place for him in the sun.” The-writer of the letter observes, “It would be interesting to know if the metaphor was original with Renan.” . It was not.: - ; In Pascal’s “Thoughts” this occurs: “This place in the sunshine is mine; that is the beginning and the type of usurpation the world over.” And Pascal’'s “Thought,” of that moment, was of war. ' Was it Louis Fourteenth (the monarch of Pascal’s maturity) who had coined the phrase to justify his ambitions? Or was it the phrase of Richelieu (discoverer of the youthful Pascal’s genius) who used it for France? Was it’' then an old saying, borrowed from Caesar, or Alexander—or maybe from Rameses? ;

A Terrible Weapon. A new weapon has been provided for the United States army which is far more efficient than any heretofore pdopted. It was invented and is used by the French military authorities, gnd already nearly a hundred have been purchased by the United States. The new gun, which i 8 described in the June Popular Mechanics Magazine, weighs but 35 pounds and can easily be carried by a soldier. Two men are required to operate it, both of whom Jie flat on the ground, presenting a pmall mark to the enemy. One man feeds the cartridges into the breech of the gun in clips of 35. each, while the other aims the weapon and directs the_firing mechanism. The gun will fire separate shots or will operate automatically, in which ‘case 800 shots may be fired per minute. At long range a third soldier ascertains ‘the range by the use of binoculars and reDports the effect of the bullets. 5 French Schools Reopened. The schools of France have partially resumed, -after holidays which started early in July. They are badly disorganized, however, both on account of the fact that fully 25,000 schoolmasters are serving with the colors, and that many of the older boys are on the firing line. By order of the minister of publie instruction the first lesson of the term took the form of an address by the headmaster' on the war, commemorating those who have fallen already in defense of the country. In the girls’ schools, two hours & day are to be spent knitting for the

Development of Heat by Plants. The development of heat by plants in Dewar flasks has been studied recently by H. Molisch. The flowers, leaves, and fruits of a large number of plants showed great contrasts in the amount of heat developed.
