How to Wear Medal, Is Worry Source to Soldiers Wayne county men who have received the new army Victory medals are puiiled how to wear them. A large bronze medal with a bright ribbon doesn't look very well on a civilian suit, they feel. Most of the Yanks recognize the greatest satisfaction they will get out of the medals Is in their possession, and yet they realize the medal is intended to be worn at certain times. Old timers In the regular army, who usually are qualified to pass on such delicate questions, say they don't know what former soldiers should do. "Good taste should govern always In such matters, and good taste is based on good sense," they say. The consensus of opinion is that the medal should be worn by a civilian only when wearing his uniform at special functions, as provided by war department regulations. At other times, it Is suggested, he should wear the bronze or silver Victory button.
HENRY COUNTY MEN PLEASED WITH BULLS
The Jersey breeders of Henry county organized a bull association,
through the co-operation of the county agent and dairy extension men from Purdue university in December, 1917, and purchased four pure-bred Jersey bulls for use in the herds of the 27 members of the association. The young bull calves purchased at that time are today almost three years old and have already sired many good, typey calves. Their bulls were purchased on a cooperative plan whereby about five or six farmers owning 40 or more cows made a unit or block for the use of one bull. The average cost of each Jersey bull in 1917 was about $160. The standard of animals bought Is far above that normally bought by the average iudlvidual owner of a bull. The average Investment per cow after forming the bull association was $3.86, while the average investment to each farmer in the association was $24.61. These amounts give him In return eight years service of excellent Jersey bulls. Some of the heifer calves are now yearlings and older and to avoid inbreeding the Interchange of bulls from one block to another takes place every two years. The first interchange of bulls in the Henry county association is to be made this September. The future of the Jersey breeders of Henry county is brightening. The heifers sired by the association bulU will replace the poorer cows in their herds. Occasional pure-bred females are being bought to replace grade cows. The new crop of better bred heifer calves is pleasing not alone to their owners, but is attracting the interest of the neighbors who would not enter the association when It was organized. A Jersey breeders' association is being planned in Henry county and interest in a cow-testing association is developing rapidly. The Henry county bull association was the first organization of its kind in Indiana, but six other dairy communities in different parts of the state have already united their efforts for purchasing good bulls on the association plan.
PRESIDENT HANDS A HOT ONE TO MINERS WHO VIOLATE WORD
President Wilson handles striking mine workers without gloves In a message sent to John L. Lewis, president of the United Mine Workers of America, last night, demanding an end of the coal tleup in Indiana and Illinois. The president condemns the mine workers for violating the "solemn obligations" imposed by their contract, and insists that they return to work as a condition for the calling of a conference of the joint wage committee President Wilson's message in full is as follows: Message Arraigns Miners. "It Is with a feeling of profound regret and sorrow that I have learned that many of the members of your organization, particularly in the state of Illinois, have engaged in a strike in violation of the terms of the award of the bituminous coal commission, and your agreement with the government that the findings of the commission would be accepted by you aa final and binding. "I am distressed not only because your action In refusing to mine coal upon the terms which you had accepted may result in great suffering in many households during the coming winter and interfere with the continuation of Industrial and agricultural activity, which is the baeis of the prosperity which you in common with the balance of our people have been enjoying, but also, and what Is of far more .importance, because the violation of the terme of your solemn obligation impairs your good name, destroys the confidence which is the basis of all mutual agrement and threatens the very foundation of fair industrial relations. "No government, no employer, no person having any reputation to protect can afford to enter into contractual relation with any organization which systematically or repeatedly violates its contracts. Setting Dangerous Precedent "The United Mine Workers of America is the largest single labor organization in the United States, if not in the world, but no organization can long endure that sets up its own
strength as being superior to its plight
ed faith or its duty to society at large. "It has in the past built up an enviable reputation for abiding by its contracts, which has been one of its most valuable assets in making wage agreements. It may now make temporary gains by taking advantago of the dire necessities of the balance of the people, through the violation of these contracts, but what of the future? How can it expect wage contracts with the employers to be continued, in the face of such violations, when normal conditions have been restored and the country is free from the immediate shortage of coal? "How will it be able to resist the claims of the operators in the future to take advantage of the precedent which the miners have established, and decrease wage rates in the middle of a wage contract under the plea that they are unable to sell the coal at the
The great trouble with the world's idols is that they are all more or less cracked.
then existing cost of production? Are Hurting Themselves. "A mere statement of these questions ought to be sufficient to awaken the mine workers to the dangerous course they are pursuing and the injuries they are inflicting upon themselves and the country at large by the adoption of these unwarranted strike policies. "In the consideration of the nationwide wage scale involving many different classes of labor by the bituminous coal commission In the limited time at its disposal some inequalities

ought to be corrected. I cannot, however, recommend any consideration of
euch inequalities as long as the mine i
workers continue to strike in violation of the termB of the award which they had accepted as their wage agreement for a definite length of time. "I must therefore insist that the striking mine workers return to work, thereby demonstrating their good faith in keeping their contract. When I have learned that they have thus returned to work I will Invite in the scale committee of the operators and miners for the purpose of adjusting any such inequalities as they may mutually agree should be adjusted."

OUIJA FADES AWAY; I NEVER WAS POPULAR
Richmond's conservative nature was
never more apparent than during the !
pass year, wnen -tne ouija board, the answerer of questions of the future and past, failed to get a foothold.
Only one local merchant handled j
me arunciai rorrune-teiier. He Bays he had only a few calls and these were from skeptical persons wishing to see for themselves. Several Richmond persons obtained ouija boards from mail order nouses in Chicago, the merchant explained. One of the ouija board owners in Richmond says she used the board av
parties. "It was great fun," she explained, to push the small table around and have it spell embarrassing things j about persons in the crowd. But not once during the years I have had the i
board did I know tbe table to move without someone pushing it." Most men in Richmond regard the ouija as "bunk." Some women fell easy victims. Reports from Chicago, Indianapolis, and Cincinnati, three nearby cities where the board got more than a toehold, are that ouija is rapidly losing favor.
