spicuous one since the pioneer days when the
"Whitewater District" was regarded as one of the earliest centers of culture. Today it lists noted painters and writers who are known far beyond the Whitewater. The conservation commission undoubtedly is acquainted withthe scenic and historic values of the Whitewater and in due season the state will be apprised of our greatness. In the mean
time civic pride might nurture and sustain our
advantages, giving them the publicity they de
serve.
Wayne County's Beauty Spots
The conservation commission of Indiana is doing a laudable work in advertising the beauty spots of Hoosierdom and pointing out the opportunities for an enjoyable vacation Within the confines of our own state. "The commission is young in point of service, but has already accomplished some noteworthy achievements. Wayne county and the Whitewater valley so far have not received the prominence they deserve for their natural scenic beauty. The Whitewater valley, if thoroughly advertised, would attract thousands of automobile parties
from all parts of the state. It is one of the most beautiful districts in Indiana. Nature unfolds hill and dale, prairie and wooded dell, meandering creeks, hillsides covered with stately trees, lowland meadows and fertile upland fields. The Whitewater region, embracing the Whitewater river with its two branches, extends from the Ohio river northward for nearly half
the length of the state. The picturesqueness of the country is not unknown to artists and' writers. From" this territory have come some of Indiana's notables. Lew Wallace, Maurice Thompsen and Joaquin Miller in the literary world. William M. Chase, painter; Hiram Powers, sculptor; James B. Eads, constructor of the great bridge at St. Louis; Amos W. Butler, ornithologist and ethnologist, represent the arts and sciences. It has given to Indiana governors, senators, cabinet officers, foreign ministers, supreme court judges and 'military and naval officers. Wayne county's contribution has been a con-
Answers to Questions
The Toll of the Autos
It is with a pardonable amount of persistence
that the police department is conducting its cru
sade against violators of the traffic ordinances. The stunning fact in connection with automobile accidents is that they are almost entirely attributable, either to recklessness or to violation of laws enacted to prevent the very mishaps which they cause. A half hour on the streets where traffic is heavy will convince any one that the accident list caused by automobiles is a preventable institution. Careless driving, actuated by a desire to speed, as well as an apparent contempt for the man on foot, undoubtedly must be held respon
sible for the condition which the police are trying to break up by arrests. Drivers who dash around corners are numbered by the hundreds. One gets the impression that the pedestrian and careful driver have no
rights and that the speeder believes the streets have been constructed and paid for by property owners for-the sole purpose of providing means for the maiming and bruising of unlucky victims. The day is gone when reckless . drivers and violators of the automobile ordinance should be dismissed with a lecture. The only curb and cure will come by way of heavy fines and impris
onment. Whisky smuggling was not checked in
this community by the assessment of fines, but it did cease when smugglers were sent to the
county jail to ponder their iniquity behind the
bars. If the city authorities want to break up a menace to the lives of citizens, let them send a
few automobile drivers to the bastile.
P. F. How many Red Cross chapters in the United States and how many members? On Feb. 28, 1919 there were 724 chapters, with 17,186 branches, embracing a membership of 20,000,000 adults and 11,000,000 junior members. E. H. Are prisoners paid for the work they do? In 64 per cent of the penitentiaries of the United States no wages are paid; In 10 per cent, however, bonuses were paid for overtime. C. P. Are the Socialists of Germany united? Several efforts to unite the Independents and Major Socialists in that country have failed. They are
still hopelessly divided. C. D. How many Boston policemen actually went on a strike? Out of 1,544, 1,400 to 1,500 followed the strike
call. Farmer What state is the greatest swine raising state in America? Iowa, followed by Illinois. Indiana ranks among the highest.

v THE SKY If you are feeling all out of sorts, here is a suggestion: Drop everything, as tho it wasn't worth while, go out into the country, lie upon your hack and look up into the sky! The blue sky has cured many a desperate case of the "blues." The very serenity, quietness, and ever-changing hues passing back and forth in the shape of clouds that silently breathe a thousand poems these alone are enough to inspire awe
