THE RICHMOND PALLADIUM AND SUN-TELEGRAM TUESDAY, AUG. 15, 1916
NO MOVIE FILM NEEDED TO SHOW GUM'S ACTIONS
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Aug. 15. Word comes from Washington that Democratic congressmen and Senators will use motion pictures in this campaign to help boost their chances. The plan is a clever one. The congressmen are to pose for motion pictures in such manner as will impress the public and the voters when the pictures are shown cm the screens in Indiana picture houses. Each picture will seek to show the importance of the particular congressman at Washington, and it will be shown all over his district. It is said that each congressman will be filmed while holding a conference with Speaker Champ Clark or with Vice President Marshall or with some other important high official. It has been suggested that this motion picture scheme opens up a vast field for the Democratic congressmen from Indiana, and numerous suggestions have been made as to pictures that might be taken and shown over the districts. Shows Lieb In Action For instance, there might be a fine
picture showing Congressman Lieb, of the First district, trying to pry open the national treasury to get an armorplate factory for that district at a cost of $11,000,000 of the people's money. Such a picture ought to make a wonderful hit with taxpayers. The Second district would simply yell and howl with joy and happiness at the sight of a motion picture showing Congressman Cullop in the act of promising that he would not run for Congress again, followed by another picture a sequel, as it were showing him campaigning hard for renomination. There is a large faction of antiCullop Democrats in the Second district who would go miles to see that picture, even if they had to sell their shirts to raise money for jitney fare. Performes at Each Session Congressman Cox, of the Third district, has the chance of his life for a motion picture. It could show him making an impassioned plea to the other Democratic congressmen in favor of abolishing the mileage graft. This has been his favorite stunt for years, and he performs It at least once every session. The picture could also show the wild enthusiasm with which his fellow Democratic congressmen always receive the proposition to abolish mileage and how they sit-on and squelch Cox and his plea. Congressman Dixon of the Fourth district, and Congressman Moss of the Fifth district, should be taken together in the same picture. If truthfully made and properly displayed it would show Dixon and Moss securing the appointment of Leonard B. Clore. another Indiana "deserving Democrat," ns a member of the farm loan board. The scene would' show the two solons pleading with President Wilson for riore's appointment, and it could show the extreme case with which the president fhook his head and said "nit." It is admitted that Indiana was entitled to a place on that board at $10.oon a year, and Clore was the Indiana man touted for the place. Moss rnd Dixon worked for him, and a motion picture showing the success of their efforts would stir up unbounded hilarity among Clore'a Triends throughcut the state. It would be quite difficult to make a motion picture that would amount to much for the Sixth district. Congressman Gray has done little more than stick thorns in the side of the
VIGOROUS MEN AND WOMEN ARE IN DEMAND
Democratic majority in the house. But the fact is that the people of Sixth district know Gray. so well and understand him so thoroughly that no motion picture is required to give them any further pointers about Gray. The Ninth district has as its Congressman Martin Morrison, who is not running for re-election. But a motion picture might show Morrisson giving his reasons for refusing to run again. He admitted that he was a dead one and knew it, while, he said, several other Indiana Democratic congressmen are dead ones and don't know it. Congressman Rauch represents the Eleventh district. About the only motion picture that would be appropriate and that would have any effect on the situation in the Eleventh would be one showing Rauch stretched out in full and calm repose on a couch in a house rest room, planning a way to beat Judge Cook., of. Huntington, at the primaries for the nomination for congress. There would be no limit to the enthusiasm of Cook's friends if such a picture were displayed on the screen
in the Eleventh district. And there is Congressman Cy Cline, of the Twelfth district. There are so many things about Cline that might look well in the movies that it would
be difficult to select any one thing
for the campaign. It is suggested that Twelfth district voters take a vote on the kind of picture they would prefer. Whether any of these suggestions will be followed, however, is a question for the future.
FRANK GETS $15,000 FOR SPENDING MONEY MILLIONAIRE MADE
What would you do with a million dollars? Most people at some time or other in their lives have speculated on the answer to that question, but very few indeed are' they who do possess the million, to have the opportunity of putting their theories to a te6t, ' Less than two years ago Glenn Frank, then secretary of the Northwestern university and a lyceum and Chautauqua lecturer who was rapidly coming into prominence, answered the question so well that E. H. Filene, a multi-millionaire of Boston, hearing of the answer, invited Mr. Frank to visit him. Mr. Fjlene, who had been so busy making money that he had had no time to look after spending it in other than business ways, gave Mr. Frank his op-
Lportunity and placed him in charge of
spending not only one but several million dollars. The arrangement is evidently satisfactory, as Mr. Frank is now drawing a salary of $15,000 a year for the pleasure of spending Mr. Filene's money. Mr. Frank spends his vacation lecturing and it will be both an opportunity and pleasure to hear him at the Richmond Chautauqua August 22 and 23.
PEACOCK OBSERVES NINTIETH BIRTHDAY
Joseph Peacock, former Wayne county citizen, at present a resident of Howard county is pointed out in a recent issue of the Kokomo Tribune as having the most Interesting life history of any person in that part of the state. . He celebrated his ninetieth birthday a week ago yesterday. When he was three years old, he moved with his parents to Wayne county from Guilford county, North Carolina. The trip was made in a wagon. He remained in this county until thirteen years of age and then moved to Grant county. In 1848, he voted the Whig ticket and again in 1852. In 1856, he joined the newly organized Republican party and voted for Fremont.
1850 BOYS AND GIRLS PLAN FOR OUTING
Several Wayne county people have received personal invitations from J. H. Williams, Winchester, inviting them to attend the annual reunion of the Boys and Girls of 1850. It is to be held at McCulloch park, Muncie, Thursday. Aug. 31. Everybody in this part of the state who was born in 1850 is eligible to first class membership. The families of all members are always invited to the reunions.
NURSERY MAINTAINS LARGE ENROLLMENT
Attendance at the Day Nursery has averaged more than twenty children for several days. All last week there were twenty-one children at the nursery and today the same number is present. The children were given another automobile ride yesterday. Care has been exercised during the recent hot weather to prevent sickness. The number of children now at the nursery is taxing the capacity. As a great deal of personal care has to be given, especially to the younger children, the attendantsare kept busy all the time.
CARS OF SOLDIERS PASS HERE DAILY
Several car loads of soldiers are passing through Richmond daily over, the Pennsylvania lines. Some of the men are going to the border for service and some are returning from the border to their homes in the Eastern states. All are militiamen. The men bound for the border will fill up the vacancies left in the state guards which are made by men who are returning and who have received honorable discharges because they have families to support or because they cannot stand the southern climate. The cars are attached to regular passenger trains.

The poppies and Sweetheart slept and the crooked old woman kept on crooning the funny little verses and slowly crooked chairs and the table and the bed began to change into a bed of nodding poppies, tnd then the house disappeared and in Its place stood more poppies; even the crooked little old woman had disappeared or changed into a poppy, for she no longer could be seen. By and by a horseman mounted on a beautiful black horse rode through the forest not far from where Sweetheart lay sleeping in the bed of poppies. The horseman had with him four attendants who rode behind him, and every little while they would shade their eyes with their hands and look about. t
"1 am afraid we will have to return without finding the flower," said the horseman, "and my father will give
I have done my best to find the flower he asked for." "Here is a road we did not see, my Prince," said one of the servants. "Let us ride along and see what we find; we have until tomorrow morning to find the flower your father asked for." So the horseman, you see, was a Prince, and his servants turned their horses into the road and presently they came upon the big bed of poppies with their nodding and drooping heads. " Oh, but they ill not do," said the Prince. These look like big buds. My father will not accept these, I am sure." "But wait, my Prince," said one of his servants, "those buds may open in the morning and you will have the flower you seek." So the Prince and his servants lay themselves down near the poppies and soon they were asleep, but the Prince was awake bright and early, while yet his servants slept. It was hardly I'uybreak, but by the dim morning light the Prince saw that the flowers were still buds, not the blossoms he sought; but while he looked he saw something that looked like spun gold among the buds, and hurrying to it he saw the sleeping Sweetheart whose golden curls had looked like gold. The Prince knelt beside her and took her by one hand. "Are you real or are you just a beautiful flower?" he said. "If you are mortal open your eyes, beautiful one; speak to me." Sweetheart opened her big blue eyes and looked straight into the eyes of the Prince. "Are you the Prince the fairies have -een telling me about while I slept?" she asked.
Newspaper Syndicate, New York. "I do not know , what the fairies have told you, my beautiful one," said, the Prince; but I am a Prince, and if you will have me for your Prince I shall be the happiest Prince in the world in spite of losing my fathers kingdom." Sweetheart blushed 'and told the Prince she cared not for his kingdom, or even if he were a Prince; that she loved him and would become his wife. "But why?" she asked, "will you lose your father's kingdom?" "I will tell you." said the Prince. "I have a stepmother who .Has a son of her own that she wishes to become king after my father, and as I am in the way she persuaded my father, who is a great lover of flowers, to set a task for my step brother and me to find a flower with a big blossom growing in shades of red, white and pink. The flower must be different from all others that grow in the palace gardens, and the one '"ho brings the flower first to my father will inherit his kingdom. "I have hunted with my faithful servants everywhere, but cannot find the flower. I found this huge bed of buds. They are not blossoms and will not do." "Look, look, and behold the flower you seek, my Prince," cried the servants of the prince, and there, growing all around him the Prince saw the poppies, now opened in the morning light, the very flower that
am not grow in tne palace garden. The servants dug up the flowers by their roots and carried quantities of them to the King, who was so delighted that he told his son he not only would give him all his wealth, but would grant any wish he might make as well.
"I will take this beautiful maiden for my wife," said the Prince, "though she is the daughter of a poor peasant, I love her and would make her my wife." The King dared not refuse his son this request, for he had given his promise, and so they were wed while the stepmother, who had tried so hard to set the kingdom for her son, looked cn in' anger so great that she went mad and ran out of the palace and was never seen after. Her son ran after, her and what became of him no one ever knew, but neither the son nor the mother was ever Been again, and . everybody hoped the fairies or the witches had
changed them into big trees or stones, i so they could never do harm to any-i one. j Sweetheart and her Prince rode to i
the cottage of Sweetheart's parents, who were so worried they had not
i slept, for they were afraid Sweet
heart had wandered into the mountain and been lost. When Sweetheart told her strange story about the goblin and the crooked little woman they all started for the forest to find the spot where the cottage stood, but no path could be found that led to such a place; and
by and by they gave it up and. .returned to the 'palace, where Sweetheart and her Prince were to live. .. The Prince gave to the peasant and his wife a beautiful home, and the King made the peasant and his wife Lord and Lady; so that the Prince had no cause to blush for his bride when her parents came to visit them, and they all lived 'long happy lives, and when the old King passed away Sweetheart and her husband became King and Queen.
