The sextette has been steadily gaining favor, not alone In Richmond and in adjacent-towns, where it had given ronr.ertfi. hut thrrmehont the State.
The sextette recently played at the
State Music Teacners association at Muncie and received an ovation. Its reputation will soon be national, it is predicted, because a picture of the organization and an outline of the work It has accomplished Is Boon to

Open Diplomacy Will Stop Bolshevism,
Carl Ackerman Tells Rotarians
The Modem Home
By GRACE E. HADLEY. Home Demonstration Agent. The modern home should be a place where the entire family can live and receive the maximum returns in health earnine Dower and joy from
the minimum expenditure of time and
labor on routine processes. ,io mane his nnssible. it is necessary to have
the rieht kind of tools with which to
work. The introduction of conveniens and labor saving devices, will greatly reduce the waste of time and energy of the women in the home and give her added time for some of the many outside activities, for reading and for recreation. More and more women are realizing that home-making is a business and that any device which adds to the efficiency of her work only makes her the more competent manager. C.-W. Taber says: "Household management ia hnth a oractical are and a trained
profession. Not until it is recognized as such will the average home
be maintained upon an efficient ana economical basis. It is as much a business enterprise as is the running of a store or office, or as Is the operation of a factory." Perhaps the greatest convenience and labor saving device for the farm woman is running water in the house. The town or city woman can hardly appreciate this convenience, since she has always had it as a matter of course; but for the farm woman who has much heavy drudgery to perform, its value cannot be estimated. While niete water system for the farm
home is desirable from every standpoint ( and many farm homes in Indiana do have all modern city conveniences) yet, where this nis not pos
sible, inexpensive systems wmcn win bring the water into the kitchen, at least, bay be obtained. : A good washing machine and wringer run by motor or engine are, next to running water, the greatest labor savers for women who do their own laundry work. An oil or gasoline stove for use in the cooking and canning during the hottest time of summer will add much to the pleasure and comfort of the worker. The projected electrification of all the railways in Switzerland will give work to thousands of munition-workers who have been thrown out of work since the signing of the armistice-

he was a war correspondent, and an honorary member of the Richmond Ro

ton hotel. Ackerman addressea a meeting at the Coliseum Monday night.
"We are living in an interesting period in the world's history" sai
Ackerman, "not because a great war
is over but because there is a new science rieveloned in the world, which
we can call the study of mass psy-

"The men at the head of the industries are those who direct and those who direct are afraid to get together with those who .execute. What we
need in this country in Industry is
what we need In governmental affairs, open diplomacy. Bolshevism does not astonish me and I have no fear of it as long as those who direct the industries lead the mass through
the critical period or reconstruction. If we are to solve the industrial prob
lems without evolutionary action we must know how to influence the mass mind. "In the United States we have
reached the point of revolution of
opinion. We can prevent tms rrom developing into revolution of action. In Russia the directing minds lost the canfldence of the people. "We must either have the League of Nations which stands for governments getting together to solve problems or have a world soviet which
would govern the world by counsels In which only the proletariate would be represented." After speaking, Ackerman answered a number of questions asked by those nracfillt

iicn v. - - J 1 -

delivered todav at the free synagogue
In Carnegie hall. New York's theatre
managers, producers, piaywrnsum, niinn dramatic, critics and theatre
going public, particularly the Jews,
alike were arraignea Dy nis seruiuu entitled "The Decadent Drama; How
Save It?" From' the first words of his sermon, Doctor Wise turned the heavy artillery of his vocabulary full upon the faults of the American theatre, liter
ally showering the subject with
scorching phrases.
Calls it "Dirtiest Business." The dirtiest business in America,"
was his characterization.
It is blasphemy," he said, "to taae
clean-limbed, upstanding youth to some of the revolting, nauseating
plays now running in New York. It is n intolerable insult to expose-them
to that, in return for their work in
France.
"I carry in mind one show m particular that I saw only last week in one of the leading theatres of the city. Most of the audience were soldiers and sailors. I am told there are a dozen ilinva emiallv bad in the city.
"Manv shows In New YorK. are use
being written by the hosiery buyers of department stores. The average petticoat purchaser of Sioux City or Tulsa would write the sort of the show I saw the other night if he Bhould stoop to write a play.
"Work of Moral Scavengers." "It was nothing less than the work of moral scavengers and filth producers. It was the product of moral leprosy. The stage was filled with half dressed women thousch no more BO
than the boxes of the theatre itself, or
the lobbies of the average notei. it was the vulgar incarnation of impurity, spun about a display of hosiery and underwear."'
Tn niacin? the blame for such plays,
noctor Wise first mentioned the peo
ple of the stage, saying they were mostly uneducated.
"I feel sorry for them," he said. "Tne theatre of today is cluttered with uneducated male and female loafers. I do not say that all plays are Dad or that all actors are uneducated, but many are, and they exhibit standards
that cultivated men and women cannot accept. So long as actors are hired and fired like clerks, so long will there be a poor class of stage people."

PENNY NO LONGER COIN TO BE DESPISED
That the penny is no longer to be ignored as it has been for the last few years, is revealed by the govern
ment starting their mints to worn at making the coppers by the millions during the last few days. These coins are being shipped to the banks by the bushels. The Denver and Philadelphia mints are working almost exclusively nn the one cent Dieces and an extra
shift of workers has been ordered for
the other mints. The one cent piece was formerly looked upon as a thing to be given
to the children or used to purcnase a postage stamp when it was found in one's pocket, but today, since the va
rious taxes have been in enect, mere is hardly a purse or pocket that does not contain a certain percent of cop
pers and they are as important as tne dollar when It comes to buying many articles.
Local banks are feeling the enect of the penny shortage for those who formerly kept them supplied with them are now coming and asking for them in order to meet the revenue requirements. This is especially true of the r-oda fountain dealers as in the course of a day a great number of pennies oro handed out in making change.
The shortage is not only a local condition but the whole country is crying for the penny and if the mints, do
not get busy and make tne coppers m nnmhora the merchants Will not
te able to meet the revenue require-1
ments, but it is hoped in a short time that this shortage will be relieved.
Large numbers of women and girls, on being demobilized from munitions and other government work, are being absorbed in the different branches of needlework.
