Jan. 17 Optimism was prevalent among members of the Joint commission of the Methodist Episcopal churches, north and pouth, at" their meeting here today, that a plan to merge the two wings of the church would be agreed upon. This was their third day in session and some definite announcement regarding the proposed unification was expected. "I am not so rosy in my outlook

with regard to unification when it is referred to the general conference after the joint commission has framed a recommendation," said Bishop Edwin Mouzon, Dallas, leader of the southern commissioners.

Eliand Trustees Reject . Bids for New Dormitory

OXFORD. O., Jan. 17. Miami University trustees yesterday opened bids for the construction of George Campbell Ogden Hall, a dormitory for men, for which Mrs. Laura Ogden Whaling, of Cincinnati, left $300,000 a few years ago. All bids were rejected because they greatly exceeded the estixnats. The building committee of the trustees will meet tomorrow to decide whether to make changes in the plans which will reduce, the cost of construction, or postpone building for a few years, allowing the Whaling bequest to accumulate, and hoping that building materials will come down in price.

Take Care of Yourself; and Don't Fear Influenza, Adivice of Health Officer If people do not crowd themselves np in badly ventilated places and are reasonably,' careful of colds there is no need for Richmond to fear another influenza epidemic, Dr. George B Hunt, city health officer thinks.,. The recurrence . of influenza in Chicago was to be expected, he said. Nearly every serious epidemic has returned in , a milder form in crowded urban districts the year following. Dr. Hunt explained. "There are no cases of influenza in Richmond at the present time, and only a few cases of Ta grippe. If the following ordinary preventative measures are taken by everybody there will be no need to fear another attack of the dreaded flu," said the health officer: Avoid over exertion and excesses of all kinds. Keep away from homes where illness exists. Avoid. coming in contact with people who cough or sneeze. If it is necessary to cough or sneeze, cover the mouth and nose to prevent the spread of contagion. Avoid physical exposure. See to it that your home, office and place of. business are .thoroughly ventilated at. all times. - ! Short News of City DR. SMITH TO 1. U.

EIDAM AT EARLHAM

IS WELL-RECEIVED BY EMMA C'FETTA Mme. Arendt, who. was unable to appear at Earlham college s second public recital of the season Friday night, was succeeded by Clearance Efedam, the young pianist who was to have appeared jointly with the soprao if illness had not prevented her appearance. Mr. Eidam presented a well chosen program in a forceful way. in tact his touch, though heavy at times, was his particular charm seasoned with a personal interpretation of interes. I Some discussion, as usual, might arise regarding his best number, but it seems quite fair to point to the Chopin group, and especially to "Scherza in C sharp minor," a rapturous number in itself and very effectively given by last night's pianist. He seemed particularly fond of Chopin as expressed in the infinite care he gave some details of the numbers he rendered, no more in any than the encore at the close of the recital when he played one of the best known of Chopin's valss. Chopin should not be heavy, and Mr. Eidam is heavy, but he gave a delicacy of touch, and of understanding to this composer which was laudable. "Chaconne" by Bach-Busoni and Beethoven's Sonata are outstanding from a technical viewpoint. The artist displayed a variety of pianistic accomplishments in both numbers. Perhaps he is not an admirer of Leon Ornstein, but he did some intricacies re markably like that artist especially in his wrist and crossed hands work. The runs in Debussy's Nocturne were notable. Some parts of this he fumbled a little, but the runs were clear and acute with just a touch of wind or water giving them their need ed flow, and resonance. His upper key board work in the Paganini-Liczt "La Campanella," was also skillful. This latter number Is an invariable favorite with mixed au diences such as Mr. Eidam played before last evening. It was radiant and firm. Schuman's "Nacht Stuck" and Mendelssohn's "Hunting Song," two numbers in the first group were received by the audience with especial enthusiasm. The "Hunting Song" was rather mediocre in presentation, it seemed, but not disagreeably done. The Schuman number was, however charmingly played and unflawed by over-expression. Whimsical and melodic was Mr. Mr. Eldam's interpretation of Cyril Scott. "The Garden of Sympathy." Prof. Samuel B. Garton of the Earlham music department, and sponser of the artists course, has announced that Mme. Arendt will ive a single recital in Lindley hall at the college on Wednesday evening, March 24. Ticket holders will be charged no additional fee for this evening. Before this appearance will be the third recital of the scheduled series, The Zoellner Quartette, on Thursday evening, Feb. 19. Worst Flood in Rhine History Swamps American Headquarters at Coblenz COBLENZ, Friday. Jan. 16. Flood waters in the Rhine and Moselle rivers here have reached the highest stage in 136 years, according to official German records. The lower parts of Coblenz along the Moselle and Rhine are under water and many houses occupied .by the Americans have their basements filled, 'but loss of American property has been small owing to warnings issued two weeks ago when the rivers began to rise. Army headquarters building had five feet of water in its basement today and other structures occupied by the American forces have been flooded put there has been no loss of life amcng Americans as yet. Funeral Arrangements Clark Jesse Elmer Clark, 58 years old, died at 5:30 p. m. Friday at the home of his sister, Mrs. A. P. Thomas, 119 South Twelfth street. He is survived by three sisters, Mrs. A.

Lloyd George's plan for the settlement of the Irish question has not aroused any noticeable enthusiasm in England, although it is recognized as the best plan that could be submitted. The trouble is now that the Irish don't want home rule, in fact that they don't want any plan of any kind submitted by the English and a proposal that might have aroused enthusiasm at one time has created only antagonism now. Sinn Fein supporters declare they will never agree to anything but a republic and absolute independence from England. It is yet doubtful whether the government plan to put internal affairs in the hands of the Irish people themselves will prove successful, for the Sinn Feiners seem to be growing in strength. It is almost impossible for Dublin Castle to trace violators of government regulations. The Sinn Fein secret service has shown a remarkable knowledge of the plans of Dublin Castle, and orders are anticipated by the Irish before they are Issued. The attacks on Lord French, lord lieutenant of Ireland, started some of the more conservative of the rebel element and violence has died down somewhat since that time. The heads f the Roman Catholic church in Ireand were quick to declare they had no knowledge of the plot against the life of the lord lieutenant. The English public would be glad to see the Irish get what they want so long as England itself Is not endangered. People are getting sick of hearing about Ireland, and the harsh and unjust measures which were taken to suppress the Sinn Feiners have been generally denounced as dangerous and Inflammatory. Country Enjoys Prosperity. Ireland was never so prosperous as it is at the present time. Most of England's dairy and meat supply comes from Ireland, and prices are good. The Irish themselves give all the credit for their present prosperity '.o the United States, which welcomes the Irish immigrant and enabled him to send money back to Ireland to help his people out of poverty. If Ireland ever gets its independence, its people declare, it will be through the aid of America. An Englishman may think Boston is in Canada, but an Irishman never makes a mistake about American geography or politics. His gratitude toward the United States cannot be doubted, and it is growing even stronger since the war. The Englishman and the Irishman have never been able to understand each other. In England a sense of injustice has been felt because Ireland was not rationed or subject to conscription during the war. Many Irish boys went to the front,1 but too often the fathers and brothers at home had common-sympathy with the enemy. This fact has done immeasurable harm to Irish aspirations for an independent republic. Any broad-minded Englishman will tell you that he believes Injustice has been done Ireland and that the nation should have home rule, but he will say just as decidedly that a republic has been made out of the ques tion by developments during the war. Opposition in England and the the home rule plan seems to be generally on a religious basis. War Breaks Prejudices. A certain1 prejudice against the employment of the Irish in London business houses was swept away by the war when labor shortage made employers glad to get Irish workers, and it may be possible that this in time will establish more sympathetic relations between the people of the two countries. Egypt and India have also been pre senting serious difficulties to the gov ernmenL Revolts are going on daily and educated natives are going home from England to preach rebellion to their people There, is always some native orator in Hyde park appealing to his motley audience for home rule or Independence, and -he usually has the support of the crowd. Men who have returned from Yndia

Hindus who served in the English army lead the revolts in the hills and then come into the station to collect their pensions as former soldiers of the British empire. The Prince of Wales is going to India In January to try the effect of his pleasant personality on the disturbing elements of the country. He is to inaugurate a form of constitutional government which was recent ly granted India as a result of the pressure for home rule. ! Englishmen are agreed that England's possessions, especially in the Orient, are a burden, but they also agree that riot, war and plunder would follow if the English left the natives to govern themselves. It is significant, however, that the English are not keen for mandatories that will buVden the nation still further with Oriental disturbers. The premier's statement that the Turks must leave Constantinople, aroused general objection because it was feared such action would obligate England to maintain troops there. . PAUL DESGHANEL IS ELECTED FRENCH HEAD (By Associated Press) VERSAILLES, Jan. 17. Paul Deschanel was elected president of France by the national assembly here today. M. Deschanel received 734 votes out of a total of 889 cast. Today's meeting of the national assembly to elect a president of the republic was more like a sumptuous social event than a political one. The circular tier of seats In the great amphitheater of the palace around the wide space where places were 6et for senators and deputies were almost filled early this afternoon with women in brilliant toilettes, Jewels and furs. M. Bourgeois began the proceedings by drawing from a box the name of Senator Sabaterle, who opened the voting. The roll call then proceeded alphabetically. Marcel Sembot and Rene Vlvlanl, Socialist leaders, abstained from voting. Bridge Asked Over Elkhorn River of Co. Commissioners Poor claims for Webster and Wayne townships for the quarter ending Dec. 31, 1919, were allowed by the county commissioners, Saturday. The claim for Webster township was $140.11, while Wayne's totaled $1,954.12. Several residents of Wayne and Boston township appeared before the peuiioners to asr. tor erection of a fridge over the Elkhorn, north of Boston, in Wayne township. They were informed that it would be neces sary to get a petition of the property owners to be affected for presentation to the commissioners before any ac Hon could be taken, It Is expected that the petition will be presented shortly.

MARKETING HOGS BY

PLANE, IS DREAM 0F OMAHA FARM BY WILLIAM R. SANBORN The following from the Drovers' Journal-Stockman, of Omaha. Neb., may be an irredescent dream, but it makes good reading. In the light of what has happened In the past 15 years, who shall set a limit to what may develop and be experienced by, those who may till our farms and edit ' our newspapers, when this generation ' has gone to its reward. But read the story for yourself; this young mans drears of the future: Aerial mall service seems to have unsettled the minds of people to a certain extent and this probably ac- " counts for the "dream stufff" handed the , editor today. The prediction a young stockman makes for .1930 sounds dopey enough, but it must be remembered that anyone who had predicted in 1910 that there would be aerial mail routes in 1920 would have been laughed at Here is the young man's picture of live stock conditions in the year 1930: A Futurist's Dream - It was early in the spring of 1930 when Farmer Brown, living at Holdrege, Neb., and owning an elegant drove of Hereford cattle and Poland China hogs, bethought himself about marketing them. They were all in prime shape and ready for the block. The cattle had been fed concentrates with alfalfa hay for 30 days and showed an average gain in that time of six pounds a day. The hogs, all 4 months old, averaged 275, pounds on the same ration. "I believe I'll go to market this morning," said Brown to his wife. ' "Things look about right to me." So suiting the word to action, he called up his commission merchant on wlvless telephone at 7 o'clock. stai&R that he would be in and asked about the market. Receiving the reply that trade was good, he told the boys to put 30 head of the big Here fords into the big freight conveyor that stood in front of the hangar. This done, Brown opened the doors of the hangar where he kept his huge truck plane with an overall splead in wings of 275 feet, equipped with four sets of 400-horse power air-burning engines. The huge plane was drawn out over the freight conveyor and attached. Farmer Brown and one son took places in the plane and started the engines, and as sne rose gracefully from the barn lot he waved good-by to his wife. Ship Cattle by Airplane The trip to South Omaha was made without incident, the big plane covering the 206 miles in two hours flat. The cattle were sold at a good figure of $54.00 a hundred and Brown went, over to town for & car load of cement for the new hog house. A fleet of trucks soon filled the car with cement and the homeward trip was started. A bad head wind sprang up, but by going to a higher elevation of 10.000 feet this was avoided and Brown arrived home about 1 o'clock in the afternoon, in time for a good dinner and nap. Meanwhile the boys unloaded the cement and put the big plane up. Raw materials are scarce, but raw prices aren't.
