AMERICANS AND FRENCH TROOPS MARCH IN PARIS

Pershing Reviewed Men Thousands of the uniformed Americans, brought to the Esplanade dee Invalldes, came marching across the Alexandre bridge into the Place da La Concorde, which was decorated elaborately. Each city represented there by a statue had sent flowers to deck its memorial. Headed by American bands, French and American troops, led by General Pilot, commander of Paris, marched past President Poincaire and the chief French and American officials.

FARMERS LIABLE FOR ACCIDENTS IN THRESHING, REPORT COLUMBUS, Ind., July 7 Farmer In Indiana aare liable for compensation to employes of contractors workine for farmers, who do not carry

workmen's compensation insurance on j their employes, it is said in a letter written by W. H. Newsom, president of the Bartholmew County Farmers' association, to Lewis W. Taylor, of Indianapolis, general secretary of the Indiana Farmers' associations. The liability results, it is asserted, from amendments to the compensation law passed by the last state assembly, one provision of which says that "any person contracting for the performance of any work without exacting from the contractors a certificate from the industrial board showing that such contractor has complied with Section 68 of this act. shall be liable to the same extent as the contractor for the compensation, physician's fees, hospital and nurse fees, burial expenses, on account of the injury or death of any employe of such contractor, due to an accident arising out of and in the course of the performance of the work covered by such contract." Section 68, referred to, provides that "every employer under this act shall either insure or keep insured his liability hereunder in some corporation, association or organization authorized to transact the business of workmens' compensation insurance in this state or shall furnish to the industrial board satisfactory proof of his financial ability to pay direct the compensation In the amount and manner and when due, as provided for in this act." Mr. Newsom points out that this question is of great importance to farmers employing threshermen to thresh their grain, as they might not think of the importance of seeing that such threshermen carry proper insurance. During the last year, it is estimated there has been one accident of more or less severity every twenty-five threshing outfits employing men operating such machinery, and as there are approximately 6,000 threshing outfits in the state, there likely will be from 200 to 350 accidents for which farmers will be liable 6 Bell-ans Hot water .

to pay, unless they make sure the threshermen carry insurance. Miss Betty Thomas Is Fourth Fire Victim DAYTON, July 7 Miss Betty Thomas of The News editorial staff was the victim of the only fire on the Fourth of July. No alarm was turned in, however, and firemen were spared a trip. Miss Thomas was preparing her breakfast at a late hour Friday In her apartment In the Bellevue when the gas oven in front of which she was toasting bread exploded. Hsr

eye brows were horned, her hair singed and she suffered other minor injuries about the face. "RUBLESS" WASH DAY That's just what will happen if you use NRG (energy) Laundry Tablets.

c c c CENTENARY CELEBRATION COLUMBUS (OHIO) Remember this great Centenary Celebration closes Its gates on Sunday, July 13th. Described by William C Freeman. Associated with Paul Block. Inc., New York, Chicago. Detroit, Boston. In one of my former articles I mentioned briefly the fact that the Centenary Celebration, Columbus, exhibited in the Oval Ampitheatre, where fifty thousand people are seated comfortably THE LARGEST SCREEN IN THE WORLD, takingup a space 183x135 feet also that a projecting' machine the most powerful in the world threw picture slides of size 105 feet square on this screen. You cannot realize what a remarkable thins: this is unless you see it bet more remarkable than the screen itself, or the size of the pictures shown, IS THE CHARACTER OF THE PICTURES DISPLAYED. I sav these ptotvre shown on Friday night, June 37th, tor the first time and the thousands of people who saw the pictures also. Judging from their expressions of approral electrified them as much as they did me and, furthermore, the contrast of the pictures shown stamped indelibly on our minds the great transformation that takes place when human kindness is employed to elevate unfortunate humanity. They tell me that some students of the Ohio State University, which is a considerable distance from the State Fair Grounds. Columbus, -where the Centenary Celebration la being held saw very distinctly the other night the pictures shown on this great screen. They marveled at them and enjoyed them JuBt as we who were close by marveled at them and enjoyed them. Pome startling phrases were thrown on the screem. Among them wer the following: "There are enough boys and girls under fifteen years of a?e In the world to make six nations as large as the United States. Six hundred million and not an Individual over fifteen years old." "Dr. Speer calls Chile a 'killing ground for little children.' Seventy-five to eighty per cent of the children die under two years of age and the general rate of mortality Is nearly double that of Europe." "Half the world Is Illiterate and unable to read or write a word In any language. The church is helping solve this problem by her great program of education." Ptartllng facts, are they not? Don't yoa see tbjo great need of the work to be done In forelam lands by the Methodist organization and all other oreanizatlons? As ex-President Taft said In hts remarkable speech In the Coliseum, where the Centenary Celebration stages wonderful events besides the GREAT PAGKANT that attracts rightly seventy-five hundred people "Did God give ua fhe wonderful opportunities we hare and the great blessings and prosperity w enjoy here to be selfish, or did He thus endow us so that we might help aU of the peoples afi the world?" The pictures Shown on the big screen portray In the most effective way. the great advancement made In developing the peoples in foreign lands, mentally, morally and physically. Sorely all red-blooded American" enjoying the great privileges of life to a greater degree than the people of any other nation tn the world, wish to share their ad

vantages with others. Tbey have demonstrated this desire In their liberal support of the Centenary cause and all other causes having the same big purpose tn view. During the remainder of the Centenary Celebration the great moving picture companies of America are to occasionally show their productions In the enlarged form demonstrated bv the trreat projecting? machine developed by the Centenary management for this special occasion. This will be an annual thing- to do something never before attempted by the Motion Picture people. I wonder If you know that scientists told the Centenary management that It would be impossible to ever throw a picture on a screen 105 feet square yet the thins: was accomplished after constant practice. For many months this projecting machine was used in displayingpictures on a large bnllding In Gramercy Park, New Tork and scientists laughed. Just as X offers scoffed when th&? rst American missionaries went to foreig-n lands determined to do what they could to help the people of those countries. The Centenary Celebration furnishes indisputable evidence of the power of man when directed by a great purpose, to accomplish anything that is worth while. Tou must see this wonderful exposition and become enthused about. It and absorbed with It as I have been and then you will have no regret Centenary Celebration Columbus c Q
