" HOUSE STRIKES OUT TEXT BOOK VOTEJROVISION Attacks Made on State Board of Education During Dramatic Argument. INDIANAPOLIS, March 6 The provision In the appropriation bill that would have compelled the state board of education sitting as a state board of book commissioners to record an open vote In text book selections, was Btricken out after a dramatic argument in the house. The fight against the bill was led by Representativeh Harris and Eschbach. . Charges were made on the one hand that "the school book trust" desired the provision in the bill, and on the other that it desired to have the provision eliminated. The use of the words "corruption" and "graft" featured the speeches of representatives throughout the discussion of the school book situation. No Place for It. Speaker Esshbach said that a provision of the kind had no place in an appropriation bill. In the discussion of the provision there were charges and counter charges of lobby activii ties and not infrequently references to "the school book trust." Representative Davie, of Jay, said that as he saw the situation there were two combinations of school book companies, one wishing one sort of arrangement and the other another. The vote was preponderously In favor of striking out the section. Representative Harris, In his speech on the subject Bald the terms of two members of the state board of education would soon expire and said that Scribners' Sons and Silver Burdette ft Co., both publishing concerns, would like to get a postponement of the letting of contracts because their interests thought they would have a better chance when the changes had been made in the two places. There was much criticism of the state board of education, statements being made that it had been attacked many times during the . last twelve years. Appropriations Cut. The appropriation bill was cut by the house action to eliminate approximately $1,500,000. The emergency contingency fund which had been provided to meet emergency situations, was slashed by the house down to $200,000. The emergency maintenance fund for institutions was cut down to $200,000. The house struck from the bill the agreement under which Indiana and Purdue universities would have received hundreds of dollars in back appropriations.

Ciccolini Tests the $3,000,000 Phonograph in Presence of Chicago Opera Stars

. AS Alfredo in Traviata, the initial offeringof the Chicago Opera Association this season, Ciccolini scored a distinct success. Next day he dropped into a music etudio accompanied by his friends, Carolina and Virgilio Lazzari, the famous contralto and basso of the organization. They started playing some of their own RECREATIONS on the New Edison. As the strains of Marechaire, the delightful Neapolitan street song soared through the room the distinguished tenor joined in, as pictured above, singing in unison with his own RECREATION. "Bravo I " shouted Virgilio Lazzari. "A duet. I swear you can't tell the two apart. Til try to." He shut his eyes. Gradually Ciccolini sang more softly. Finally he ceased. "Why don't you stop ? " inquired the listener a moment later, "so that I can tell the difference ? "

Ciccolini and Signorina Lazzari burst into laughter. Lazzari, the great basso, with . ears attuned to the subtlest variations of the human voice; even he had been unable to say when it was Ciccolini he heard and when his RECREATION. Edison tone tests in which the artist sang in direct comparison with his own RECREATIONS have been held before audiences totalling more than two million people. More than thirty great stars, both vocalists and instrumentalists, have conducted them ; more than five hundred newspaper critics have reported them favorably. You may read their verdicts in the booklet "What the Critics Say." Out of this vast throng not one person has been found who could distinguish artist from instrument.

'ODAY the industrial world faces the crrat nmhTpm of

reorganizing stability. The various forces and concentrated efforts of this country, since April 6, 1917, have been focused primarily on carrying out a successful war

Drocram. America was tllincr her utrwv tr tht hictnrv

of the future in men, munitions, supplies, organization and heroism. Business wrote its share of that story in developing new, precise, tremendously efficient methods to compete with the shortage of labor and materials. Now business has a better story to tell than ever before. Not only a better story, but a new story that will embrace many different angles in readjusting itself to peace conditions. Public opinion is fluid, plastic, waiting to be developed into significant good-will for those products brought most forcefully to its attention. Public opinion i3 the plastic clay Advertising, the Master Hand that molds it. , ; ' To build surely, it builds truthfully. The subject is always in view. The facts of today's industrial program form its basic design. And . the facts of today's industrial program are the base of all future commercial and industrial prosperity. The manufacturer who tells his facts through advertising now. places himself in the foreground of the world's greatest commercial opportunity. He builds up confidence that will effectively bridge over the contrasts between war and peace conditions. Munition factories, turning to totally different lines of manufacture; factories whose major or minor output has been recently absorbed by the Government, and now divert full production to the public, have new facts to tell. Now is the time to tell them and establish stability of character through authentic building of character in Fact Founded Campaigns.
