EVILS OF SUBSTITUTION. NOBLES VILLE, Ind., Jan. 29. The evils of substitution were made api.u.onf in the country home of Georse
Stokes. Mrs. Stokes was ill for several days and Mr. Stokes looked afler the cooking. He thought he was doing a good job of it for a new man at the business, but he noticed on occasions that the children did not take kindly to his meals. A few mornings ago he decided to make some buckwheat cakes and prepared what he regarded a nice plate of them. He had a plentiful supply of syrup, which he supposed he was making from a good grade of granulated sugar. The children did not like the syrup. Mr. Stokes tasted it and agreed with them. Then he discovered that he had made the syrup from epsom salts instead of sugar. JONAH STIFF RELEASED VINCENNES.

Plans for a real old fashioned home warming and barbecue were inaugurated at the meeting of Harry Ray post, in the Commercial Club rooms, Wednesday night.

Davis told members of the post that the ox would be prepared for cooking whenever they wished. Plans for other features for the opening, including a band, which will be organized under the supervision of a committee composed of Adolph Getz. Roland Nusbaum, Frank Strayer and Marlowe Kluter, were also considered at the meeting. Definite dates ?"or meeting nights were made at the meeting, and hereafter the meetings will be held on the E-econd and fourth Wednesdays of each month. Membership cards were distributed.
ARTIST'S VISION IS , WORLD'S NEED, SAYS GRANVILLE BARKER
"Beauty is truth and truth beauty.', Keats said oace. Using the essence of this as the basis of his theme, Granville Barker, noted Englishman, who has written plays popular on the
I American stage, spoke before an inter
ested audience in the First Presbyterian church, Wednesday night on "The Artist as a Vital Part of the Community". Although he is greatly concerned with the theatre, and especially .the -repertory theater, Barker's . Interest for the artist lies in a wider field. "I do not say that if all the men at the Peace Conference in Paris had been artists, that is, men of imagination, that everything would have come out all right, but when others have failed so much of what they attempted the artist has a right to ask why the influence of the man of imagination who is not led by his passion, but v human sympathy, may not be heard,", said Mr. Barter. Need More Than Brains In settling tne questions wnich lie before the world today there Is something more needed on every side than the mechanics and sciences of the world. Jie Dointed out.
"I do not wish to underestimate the
marvelous mechanical successes of your country; no man can look at them, and avoid admiration, but these alone will not cure the world of its maladies. "But we can not have the one here and the other there. A world can not be ugly and beautiful, a good and bad at the same time. Life is art and arts is light; they can not be apart. "Only in terms of full citizenry can. the artist give his art to the world.There are men who say art is not ne glected because there are great museums for them to visit, which are.
good in themselves but not sufficient to bridge the gulf which yawns between our interests in life and ourt affections. This is the problem. "I respect museums; they give to and our children a sense of the continuity from generation to generation, but there is no .worse snob than therf person who pretends to like awork oC art when he knows he doesn't. If youi don't like a thing, go home! "There are plenty of excuses to put forward to excuse man for his seeming barbaric attitude toward the modern stage and the sort of plays which: are appearing to an extent," suggested, the producer of plays. The real reason for the kind of play which overcasts what many should like to see in. drama, is that the theater has become an industry, and it is not possible to reform a prosperous industry becauseits business is to be prosperous. The high practical use which the drama has made for itself is as it has been, taken up for educational purposes.

SHEEP ENTOMBED IN STRAW STACK FOR TWO MONTHS SULLIVAN, Ind., Jan. 29 On Nov. 10, Veo Kisner of near Fairbanks, north of Sullivan, missed one of the
sheep from his flock. No trace of it coufd be found, after a diligent search had been made throughout his farm and the immediate vicinity. On Jan. 23, Kisner saw a sheep's head protruding from an old straw stack that was covered with snow and ice, and on digging away the frozen portions of the stack, the sheep stepped out of his prison where he had been entombed for two months and thirteen days. Disregarding the fact that the animal was thin and stiff, it was apparently in good physicial condition.
