PASTOR PUTS MIRROR BEFORE EATON FOLKS

The exhibit by Indiana Artists now hanging in the John Herron Art In

stitute will close April 4. An inter

esting item concerning the work of a local artist who has a canvas on exhibition as published in the Indianapolis News is: It is interesting to note the different manner in which the artists who paint landscapes make use of trees in their pictures. In landscape painting, in all places except where there are desert wastes, or in far north, or in very high altitudes, and rocky coast marine pictures, trees naturally form an important part of an artist's composition, if indeed, not the most important part. John E. Bundy, of Richmond, well known beyond the boundaries of the state for his sympathetic interpretation of beech trees,, nearly always paints them at very close range, making the interest lie not in the full shape of the trees, but in the trunk, moss, or snow covered, according to the season. His pictures now on view are realistic in the extreme, with change of color in the gray green bark, the drawing of roots as they disappear in the ground and the added color of red brown leaves blanketing the earth. Mr. Bundy is fond of showing bits of blue sky over a hill-top and introducing a brook as a mirror for the whole color scheme. Mr. Bundy has Imitators, but their work will never be confounded with his.

Mr. S. E. Swayne has gone to Battle Creek where he will remain for a few days. His daughter, Mrs. John Shirk, who has been dangerously ill, is slightly improved.

A prettily appointed dinner was

given Sunday at the home of Mr. and

Mrs. Philip Murray on North Eighth street. The affair was in celebration

of the sixtyninth birthday anniver

saries of Mr. Murray and his twin

sister, Mrs. Henry Williams of Cam

den, Ohio. Flowers and ferns were used in appointing the table. An elaborate dinner in several courses was served. Covers were laid for Messrs. and Mesdames Philip Murray, Henry Williams and daughter Miss Pauline, of Camden, Ohio, Ira Swisher, Mrs. Wash Wall of Camden, Ohio, and Mr. Ira Murray. The last meeting of the season for the Monday evening dancing club will be held tonight. Piano and drums will play the order of dances. Among those who had dinner at the Hotel Westcott last evening were Mr. Ora Hughbanks with a party of four, Mr. and Mrs. T. F. Ullery, Dr. J. T. Foster, Dr. Frank Harold and Mr. J.

Rev. H. C. Bream Tells "What I Think of People of Eaton," in Talk. EATON, O., March 22. "What I Think of The People of Eaton" was the subject of the farewell sermon delivered Sunday morning at Barron Street church of Christ by Rev. Harvey C. Bream, who resigned to accept a call extended by the congregation of Glenwood Avenue Christian church Buffalo, N. Y. A large congregation heard the sermon. Rev. Bream had been pastor of the local church more than three years, during which time his untiring efforts have wrought vast good for his church and the town generally. The matter of a successor to Rev. Bream has not been taken up, but a couple of applicants are under consideration and it is probable one of these will occupy the pulpit next Sunday.

STOVALL OBSERVES THREE YEARS WORK

Next Sunday will mark the third anniversary of the service of Rev. W. O. Stovall, as pastor of the First Baptist church. It was announced yesterday that the occasion would be observed by special home coming exercises at all services during the day. Members will receive urgent invitations during the week to make an unusual effort to attend church next Sunday.

FILES DEMURRERS

At what age should the school children begin to wake up and observe the world about him?" This question Is one which educators are trying to solve, County Superintendent Williams said today. He is taking a step along the lines suggested by the question and today the school children were examined on a set of original questions which resulted from three weeks study of Wayne county. The ten questions follow: 1 In what drainage system is Wayne county? 2 Name and locate three streams. 3 Describe three kinds of soil and tell where each is found. 4 What is the average rainfall? 5 Name five largest townships. 6 Name six towns located on interurban lines. 7 Name and locate five public Institutions. 8 Name two township officers and state their duties. 9 Name three qualifications of a school teacher. 10 Who is B. F. Wissler? Charles W. Jordan? William Dudley Foulke? Henry C. Fox? Walter McConaha?

The answers to these questions are secured outside of the schools. This is contemplated to cause the pupils to Investigate and thus reveal much information from the answers to the questions. ."These questions are given to seventh grade pupils," Mr. Williams said. "We are trying this method of introducing outside affairs to the students. The arithmetic courses are undergoing an evolution which is expected to prepare the children in the seventh grade for more practical future work and for pre-vocational courses later. "The latest course of study issued which includes the semi-annual examination questions starts the seventh grade list off with this: 'Tell the cost approximately of each of the following: A tooth brush; a day's wages; a physician's call; insurance policy; hogs per 100 pounds; interest on loans.' These questions will cause them to ask questions. For the country schools, the list contains questions regarding the methods of figuring milk testing, butter making and milk production."

HUNDRED TEACHERS APPLY FOR PLAGES

Superintendent Giles ceives Applications Places for Schols.

Re-for

The office of Superintendent J. T. Giles resembles a teacher's employment bureau at this time of the year. Each mail brings in a number of applications from teachers who desire to obtain positions in the local school next year. Mr. Giles already has over a hundred applications for positions and said today that he fully expected the number to reach two hundred by the close of the term. Many of the applicants send full accounts of the experience and training, with letters of recommendation. To simplify this matter, Superintendent Giles sends each applicant a form letter telling , them that the position which they "desire is now filled, but that he would like to have information for a permanent record of the applicant, and encloses a card to be filled out and returned to the superintendent's office.

APPEALS FOR BRIDGE

John Nixon of Centerville town board made an eloquent appeal for a new bridge of Paddy's Run on Centerville's nprth corporation line today before the board of county commissioners. Mr. Nixon said the present bridge is too small, dangerous and unsightly. He said the town board, of inhabitants want a plain substantial bridge to replace it. The board will fill in the wings if the commissioners will build a big enough bridge, he said. The matter was taken under consideration. There is little prospect of the bridge being ordered this year.

James Baughn of New Castle, through his attorneys, filed demurrers to two paragraphs of the complaint of George Ratliff, also of New Castle, who is suing for $10,000 for alienation of Mrs. Ratliff's affections. A fight is expected from the accused as he refused efforts of Ratliff's attorneys to compromise the claim against him. The case was venued here recently from Henry county.

COMSTOCK TO HEAR SUIT FOR DAMAGES

Judge Fox retired from the bench for a few days to recuperate from u recent attack of cold and grippe and he appointed Judge Com stock to preside in the case of Charles T. Wolford against the T. H., I. and E. Traction company. Wolford Is suing for $3,000 damages. He said he was riding in an automobile from Richmond to Indianapolis and in crossing the tracks at Knightstown, the machine was hit by an interurban which had given no warning of its approach and which was cut off from view by some repair work along the tracks.

FALL FESTIVAL PLAN CONTINUES TO SLEEP New Advertising Committee May Revive Elaborate Boosting Program. No desire is being shown this year for a fall festival, E. M. Haas, secretary .of the Commercial club said today. When the fall festival was dropped last year, it was expected that one would be held In October 1915. There has been no demand. This situation may be altered by the appointment of a new advertising committee which will be announced Monday night. This fall festival plan was brought up by the appearance of a member of the Muncie Commercial club yesterday, seeking Information on Richmond's plan of conducting fall festivals. The members said the success of the Richmond fall festival in past years is a matter of common belief in Muncie and the Muncie club wants to pattern after the Richmond plan.

CLUB DELAYS ACTION ON GOOD ROAD PLANS PROPOSED BY HAROLD

What part the Commercial club will take In the organization of an old trails committee or club in Richmond and Wayne county Is not known, according to Secretary E. M. Haas. Dr. I. S. Harold, local representative of the National Highways association has been before members of the club several times, but action on his suggestion for Wayne county's part of the good roads propaganda has been delayed until new committees could be appointed and given time to organize. E. J. Hernan, assistant director general of the National Highways association has begun the organization of the counties through which the National road passes in Indiana. Terre Haute is the western terminal while Richmond is the eastern terminal. The purpose of the systematic campaign which will be conducted across the state is not only to improve the . old National road but to secure the improvement of all main roads which lead to it. Indiana is one of the most important links in this famous road which is a part of the proposed trunk line to connect Washington and San Fran-
