The most unique building in the world is located at Midland, Michigan. It is the Midland county courthouse. Poul Honore, a Detroit artist, using colored ground glass as his medium, “painted” vivid murals on the outside walls of this courthouse that are not only pleasing to the aesthetic sense, but are done in colors which defy the rigors of the winter climate,, The new system promises to revolutionize American exterior decoration. Since the eompletion of the courthouse, Midland has been the year-round mecca for visitors from every state in the union, During the summer, when thousands of autoists visit this part of KEast Michigan, the ‘“wonder-summer-land,™ Midland is the host to so many guests because of the courthouse magnet, that its population is frequently doubled and trebled: A free tourist camp aids in the entertainment of the no- - mads. And Midland initiated this new art. f - The big point about this coloredglass decorative scheme is that it is lasting. Never will the rich colors fade from Honore's pictures of the - pioneers of the county which are painted on the exterior of the courthouse. Centuries in the future, if the building is standing, visitors will look upon the splendor of ruddy sunsets blazing from the walls, the riotous gaudiness of the lumberjacks’ mackinaws and bandannas, the gamut of colors shown in Indian head-dress and blankets and the soft greens of pines and grass. For all of these are shown in the mural pictures, = | All Materials Came From County ~ Another noteworthy feature of the! Midland county courthouse is the fact’ that, with the exception of the hardware, it is the. first courthiouse ever‘ built entirely out of materials gathered within the confines of the countyi erecting it. When Herbert H. Dow, | founder of -the Dow Chemical Works, | one ot the largest chemical plants in; the world, offered his idea of what the; new courthouse should be like a few | years ago, he proposed an ;Amerlcan! design of architecture—not a Grecian temple with a blind-folded statue of | Justice in front of the dome, He also suggested that it be constructed of field stone of the county, of timbers| hewn in the county and of plaster| made in the county. The idea caught]

"on. When the building was begun 'most of the farmers in the county contributed at least one load of stones. 'So the piide of possession In this ' building is augmented by the senti‘ment which arises ihrough personal ‘service in its construciion. The first ' Bod was turned with a spade made of ‘magnesia metal, a substance derived %from brint that oozes through the ;county sands. : ~ Bloodgood Tuttle, of Cleveland, Ohio, the architect, was told to design 'a building in consonance with the ideas of Mr, Dow, a structure that iwould fit in and still stand out. A ' moditied Tudor styic was the result. | Honore, the Detroit artist, was instructed to climax the project with [exterior scenes depicting the life and surroundings of the pioneers of .the county. So the redskins, the woodsmen, the pines, the log cabins and the tents are there. Periodic Retcuching Unnecessary Up to the time of the new Midland courthouse a year.ago, the only kind of outside pictures possible in the rigorous winter climate of Midland was the sort seen on -the fronts of houses in Bavaria and Tyrol—done in paint oil. Periodic retouching is necessary to keep these designs fresh. Colored stuccos and plasters had been tried, but were. abandoned "because they would not stand the weather or dry uniformly. A soft, imperishable medium was lacking—until the Midland project. Good fast pigments had been poured into cement, but this was untenable because the ultraviolet rays of the sun gradually bleached the color. The masterpieces of one artist who tried cement, cracked after several monihs. ; To obviate the necessity of waiting a lifetime to see how fadel.ess their product was, the Midland chemists exposed samples of the glass color material to a several weeks’ assault from special quartz lamps which gave the equivalent of 250 years of sunlight. The cement remained unblemished. Midland is located in East Michigan on U. S. Highway 1§ and on Michigan Highway 20, 18 miles -west of Bay City. It is situated on the famous Tittabawassee River which in the old lumbering days carried more logs to the saw mills on its expansive bosom than any stream in Michigan.

Engagement Announced

An event charming in its gquaintness was the luncheon and musicale given Saturday of last week at which was announced the engagement of Miss Mary Bernis Buchanan daughter of Rev. and Mrs. Walter Scott Buchanan of Westwood Hills to Robert Rush Taylor son of Mr. and Mrs. David S. Taylor.—lL.os Angeles Times. Robert Taylor was a student ‘in the Ligonier schools until his senior vear when he moved with his parents to California in 1920. Both M. and Mrs. Taylor are widely known in 'Noble county. . s ‘ The son, Robert who began his vocal studies with Martha Hutchison of Ligonier is well known in Southern California as a haritone soloist with glee clubs and on radio programs. He is connected with the Research dept. of Bullock's Inc., (one of the west's leading department stores.) Both . Miiss Buchanan and Mr, Taylor are Hoosiers by birth. Rev. Buchanan formerly of Union City Indiana is president of the T.os Angeles Church Federation. Miss Buchanan is the head of the dramatics department in one of the Los Angeles High Schools.

: . ‘Teachers Tenure Law. ' The teachers’ tenure law which provides that if a new contract is made with ateacher who has been employed for five years in the same school <corporation such a contract thereby becomes a permanent contract will not affect the selection of teachers for next year.

In a number of cities in. Indiana school bhoards have beén declining to offer contracts to teachers who have been employed' for five years or more because the members of the board did not desire to bind the school cities with permanent contracts and this procedure has been even more common among township trustees who employ teachers for township schools. . - :

The Ligonier school board.regards he tenure too foolish to claim seriyus attention. 5
