iiivu ik i niu MISS TEST BY CITY SCHOOLS Warner School Closes in Respect to Memory of Teacher Work is Praised. Memorial services for Julia E. Test, who died Thursday, will be held Sunday afternoon in the High school auditorium at 2:30 o'clock. Warner school, where Miss Test had been a teacher for 30 years, was closed today in respect to her memory. Miss Test was a teacher In the Richmond schools for over fifty years and was a leader in primary work over Indiana. She inaugurated a system of her own for giving the children the fundamentals of the English language, by taking what she considered was useful from the various new systems introduced. By teaching children phonics rather than pounding out each word she found she could make the children self reliant In learning other words and this this method was a great help to them as they went 1 through school. It Is not improbable that half the people in Richmond have gone to school to Julia Test. Her co-workers say of her that she was full of enthusiasm which she gave to others, and no teacher was ever known to have such devotion to her work. The arrangements for the memorial services have not been completed. The committee in charge is composed of Miss Harriet Thompson, Miss Martha Whitacre, Miss Sophia Marchant and N. C. Heironlmus. Children Show Love. When the death of Miss Test reached Warner school yesterday the children in each room were told and a short service was held In each room. This morning, children in all the rooms on their own initiative brought pennies for flowers. No teacher mentioned it and the gift was truly a love offering. Over six dollars has been brought in pennies and nickels. Funeral services for Miss Test will be held Saturday afternoon at 4 o'clock at the funeral parlors of PohlI meyer-Downing and company. Burial , wHl be In Earlham. Friends may call Friday afternoon and evening. Tribute of Teacher. The following tribute to Julia Test was submitted by E. E. F.: The next time we meet Miss Test she will doubtles be teaching little children in the Kingdom of Heaven. How else could she be supremely happy? No child down here on earth, however stupid or forlorn or inattentive, ever came under her care that her dynamic ppdagogy did not at once respond to the problem of setting the derelict on the road to self-mastery. To such a task, she had dedicated her life. Many children how many, only the recording angel knows, coming from homes where they were, petted, and indulged and but rarely sublected to nnv kind of wholesome discipline, , have learned from her their first lesson in obedience, moderation, thrift and self-sacrifice. To supplement this lack of training, she counted no task too great, no effort too burdensome. She would devote herself to a back- ; ward pupil, "working over hours," try ing one device after another to arouse him to normal activity. j She had the happy faculty of im parling 10 cnuureii an lnsiui miu subjects which, in their entirety, were far beyond their grasp, thus awakening interest in many divergent lines of knowledge, and laying a broad foundation for a substantial superstructure. She Trould even ask the privilege of taking children in more advanced grades under her tutelage for a period to ground them in certain principles not properly grasped in their initial training, which she regarded as essential to their further progress. Acknowledged Leader. As primary principal, she was an acknowledged leader. Always receptive to new ideas she still weighed them with discriminative judgment, holding herself as well as her coworkers to the highest standards of excellence. While not personally in sympathy with many of the experimental fads foisted upon the educational world during her period of service, 6he adjusted herself cheerfully to the change as they came, giving each an additional value by an infusion of her own native common sense. Her enthusiasm for her work often led her to call additional meetings besides those established by the superintendent, in order to discuss the separate problems of her own grade with those most closely associated with her. All the year round, her keen mind was on the alert for stories and poems that would appeal to her pupils. Assuredly, few women have ever lived who devoted themselves more This Fire-Fighter Says This "I have used several packages of Cadomene Tablets and found them very beneficial, and have recommended them to several members of the fire department, who also speak well of the results., Most respectfully, LOUIS J. EAGLE, "Fire Marshal, Landsdowne, Pa. For nervous, weak, impoverished men and women there is -nothing so good to build up as Cadomene ablets. Sold in sealed tubes by all druggists. Adv.

whole-heartedly to the profession of teaching than did Julia Test Beginning the work early when her own childhood had not yet lost its grip, and continuing throughout the years of maturity, growing in wisdom and efficiency as she went, she has been a factor in molding the life of our community. The announcement of her death will be read with regret by many a father, son and grandson, as they recall the days when each in turn stood, wonder-eyed, before the same wise teacher, as she guided them skillfully towards the road to understanding. Juvenile Court Worker To Address Clubwomen EATON, O., April 4. Program for the annual meeting of the Preble County Women's Federated clubs, to be held April 12 in Lewisburg, is being completed. It is announced that Miss Edna McChristie, of the juvenile court in Cincinnati, and Mrs. Willison of Ohio State university, Columbus, have accepted Invitations to speak at the meeting. Miss McChristie, who formerly lived at Camden, probably will address a meeting of the local branch of the county W. C. T. U. here April 11.

COLLAPSE OF (Continued From Page One) shall hold these stakes, is satisfied. The United States, represented by Mr. Wilson, who has no other purpose than to acquire endorsements of the League of Nations document by as many European powers as possible, has won English and Italian assentFrance has to choose between signing Mr. Wilson's document, which leaves her financially ruined and militarily defenceless, or being immediately deserted by all her allies. No Just Settlement It seems now that the Clemenceau government will yield to outside necessities and make sacrifices that are asked of it. Thi3 is not sure. It is as likely that the Clemenceau government may fall at any moment and a patriotic wave sweep France and lead to a rejection of a treaty becoming abhorrent in the minds of all Frenchmen. But whether the treaty is signed or not, Fmuce, the French people, will neither forgive desertion at this time, nor place the slightest confidence or reliance in the document of the League of Nations. In sum, all hopes which were founded upon promises made in advance by statesmen responsible alike for the conduct of the war and the liquidation of victory, have failed to bind the Paris conference in the presence of political necessities. Mr. Wilson will take back to America some sort of document which is without value and represents nothing except the interested assent of the nations who do not subscribe except on paper to the principles there formulated. Instead of a settlement which would erect Poland, Jugo-Slavia and Roumania, which together with Czecho-Slovakia would be a barrier alike against the Boche and the Bolshevisk, we shall have at least three email states deprived of an outlet upon the open sea,: and doomed in advance to fall to German exploitation. We shall have, in addition, France, after the greatest sacrifices ever made by a people in defence of their own existence, which was the defence of the liberties of the world, feeling it is deserted by its allies and defenceless against its old enemy. So far as we can see now, no single one of the dreams that millions of people have had, dreams of settlement in accordance with justice and of peace guaranteed by the common consent of the free peoples of the world, will be realized. And when all these sacrifices have been made, will the Germans be satisfied, and sign? Will the Bolshevists be impressed and surrender? And if neither thing happens, will the Eastern people who have been abandoned, will the French nation which feels it is betrayed, take up arms against Bolshevism, or will Bolshevism profit as a result of the collapse of the statesmanship of the Western world? THAT CHANGE IN WOMAN'S LIFE Mrs. Godden Telta How It May be Passed in Safety and Comfort Fremont, 0. "I waa passing through the critical period of life, being fortysix years of age and had all the symptoms incidenttothat change heat flashes, nervousness, and was in a general run down condition, so it was hard for me to do my work.

A Woman ByZoe

THE FIASCO Janet Stedman carried aa if photographed upon the retina of her eye the picture 6he had seen aa she entered the great hall. In a normal state of mind, seeing her husband with Lucy Benton, the illustrator of his books, would not have struck her with agony. But Janet was hideously overwrought. She viewed nothing normally. Her western speaking trip had been one horrible struggle to keep her working hours free from the thoughts of her own unhappiness. The sudden rush back to New York to preside at a gathering such as now confronted her was almost more than she could bear of added responsibility. And now, as if to , mock her with the impossibility of escape even for a hour from her personal problem, there were Walt and Lucy, arm in arm living symbol of harmony and true partnership! It did not occur to j Janet that the picture she presented j as she stepped from Roy Nicolls limousine filled Walter's heart with even greater bitterness. Inside the hall Janet's duties as presiding officer wrenched her mind temporarily from her own problems. From long practice, she was able to go through the motions of welcome, congratulation and other courtesies due the distinguished feminist from England. It was not until the meeting actually opened that it came over Janet with a rush of terror that she was physically , and mentally incapable of making the introductory address. In panic she reali2ed she could not control her thoughts. She could remember nothing but Walt and Lucy Walt and Lucy Walt and Lucy! Her cheeks flamed with the effort to concentrate. Her hands grew- icy cold. Her throat went dry. As from a distance she heard Nicoll's voice: "All ready, Janet." . Dimly she saw him look at her and nod his head is a signal to begin. On limbs that seemed made of tinfoil, Janet rose and stepped forward on the brilliantly lighted platform. Twice she moistened her lips and ' swallowed. At last came her voice, ' and with the sound of it, a iittle con fidence. Habit helped her. So long as she kept to the more or less stereotyped formula of remarks such as precede the speaker of the evening all went well. But it was on the program that "Mrs. Janet Thayer Stedman, editor-in-chief cf the famous feminist publication 'Woman,' will preface Mrs. Gordon's address with a few words of her own. Mrs. Stedman has just returned from a western tour, upon which she visited many women's clubs speaking at each." There is probably no more hideous human sensation than that of mental panic, with which Janet now fought. The harder she struggled for selfpossession the more evident her confusion became. She had caught sight of Walt and Lucy in their balcony seats, and could see no one else, thins of nothing ebe but them and herself. She forced some sortof words from her lips, but they conveyed nothing of her usual originality, nothing of her charm or wit or poignancy. Her sentences became involved. She found herself staring at that spot in the gallery where her husband's face and "Johnny's in Town" "I Want To Shimmie" "Chong" "Oh, Death, Where is Thy Sting?"

s Business Beckley Lucv Benton's made a pinkish blur in the dimness. She struggled on for a time, saying nothing, and saying it baJly; then started to introduce the famous lady from England. As she prepared to pronounce her name the name eluded her. It was as if the machinery of her brain had gone dead. For one hideous instant she stood, lips parted, finger tips to temple, feeling that she j should die of mortification. Then she heard Nicoll's voice pronounce the name in. a distinct whisper, "Mrs. Lawford Gordon." With a half gasp and a nervous smile Janet repeated the name, bowed and retired to a chair near the back of the stage. The lady stepped toward the footlights amid a burst yof applause. Then, in a full, splendid voice, began her speech, ner confi dent bearings putting the last touch of contrast to the two women. Janet, slipping through a email exit from the back of the platform, found herself in a large, dim place, evidently a eort of office and property room. furnished with a dusty-looking desk i and seme wooden chairs.
