NOTED DANCER BACK FROM "GAY PAREE" Florence Walton. When Florence Walton, the famous dancer, returned from Europe recently she was clad in a stunning gown and coat of the latest Paris design. And, why not ? For what, pray, does an actress go to Europe unless it is to have an orgy of shopping for new Paris fashions? In the photograph Miss Walton is shown wearing one of her newest Paris ruade coats nd hats. Note the distinctiveness of the decorations. She is holding her two dogs which have crossed the ocean sixteen times.

FRANKLIN CANVASSED FOR FARM MEMBERS The Franklin township federation meeting at Whitewater Monday evening was well attended, nearly 100 being present. The meeting was well advertised, owing to the fact that the membership campaign begins in Wayne with Franklin township, and a canvass is being made today, the first of the drive which runs all this month, each township being given a day to clean-up in. If the various committees do not harvest the ntire bunch on the day assigned, a corps of "mop-pers-up" will re-glean the field. An election of officers resulted in the re-election of President Everett Hunt and the entire official staff. Mr. Hunt presided and introduced Tneodore Davis, president of the Wayne federation, J. L. Dolan, county agent, and Earl Crawford, of Milton, each of whom addressed the meeting. Crawford was the principal speaker, and devoted 40 minutes to his subject. Comparatively few farmers are now outside the membership in Franklin and it is hoped to gather them all into the federation fold in this drive. Present New and Old Plays At Earlham Performance Clifford Devereux and his company of actors will give two performances at the Earlham college chapel OcL 25. At the matinee they will present "Her Husband's Wife." by A. E. Thomas, and at the night performance Ibsin's "Ghosts" will be given. "Her Husband's Wife" is said to be one of the most popular and successful of modern comedies. Mr. Devereux plays the part of a younj? husband whose wife is obsessed with the idea that she has not long to live and is anxious to arrange a second mar riage for her husband. How the young wife, played by Miss Zenita Graf, draws her school friend and her Uncle, John into the scheme, and how she has her jealousy aroused and tries to extricate herself from the entanglement she has spread around herself, form the background of the story. Other members of the cast are Winifred Day, David Ballou, Edmund Forde, Zenita Graf and Norma Dickson. Hendrick Ibsen's "Ghosts" is without a doubt his masterpiece. The play deals in a masterly and absorbing manner with the artificiality of domestic convention, and the character studies and construction of the plot provide the most intense interest and food for thought. The cast for this production includes Winifred Day, J. W. Pilson, Edmund Forde, Zenita Graf and Clifford Devereux. The matinee will begin at 4 o'clock and night performance at 8 o'clock. Seats will be reserved for both per formances and the plots will be open both at the college and in town. The price in the afternoon will be 75 cents for all seats and $1.00 in the evening, French Bluebeard Declines To Try Stunt of M'Swiney (By Associated Press) PARIS, Oct. 12. Henri Landru, who is shortly to be placed on trial on charges growing out of the disappearance of 11 women to whom he had promised marriage and who has acquired quite a reputation as a dry wit since his incarceration 18 months ago, showed deep interest in the health of the Mayor of Cork, Terrence MacSwiney, on a hunger strike in a Brir.ish prison. Every morning he inquired of the jailer whether MacSwiney were still alive. For a few days Landru showed a strong disinclination to partake of the usual prison fare. "Are you trying to do the MacSwiney stunt, starve yourself?" the jailer inquired. "The innocent never commit suicide," responded Landru sententiously.

Prof. R. R. Ramsey, of the physics department of Indiana university, has invented a working model of an atom which shows the working of the electrons that compose it. An atom, which was formerly believed by scientists to be the unit pieces of matter and not further divisible, is now conceived to b composed of electrons. These electrons are supposed to be constantly revolving around the common center of the atom because of the action of inherent electricity. The working model is an arrangement of ste-l balls, representing electrons, floating in mercury. These revolve about the common center when two cross currents of electricity are introduced. The apparatus is bing manufactured and put on tbe market for use in laboratories. Labor Calendar Tuesday, Oct. 12. Blacksmith's 563. T M. A. Hall; Carpenters 912.

CUBAN BANKS REOPEN AFTER SLIGHT PANIC (By Associated Press) HAVANA, Cuba, Oct. 12. Proclamation of a moratorium for fifty days seems to have cut short the financial flurry which occasioned considerable

alarm on Saturday. Issuance of the;niir ana weaaie were tne auctioneers

decree was ravorably received by the public. All banks, including the international bank of Cuba which suspended payments on Saturday following a run on that institution, opened for business at the usual hour today. A few banking houses did not take advantage of the moratorium and continued business as nrifipr nnrmal conditions.

THOMPSON GLEAN UP SALE BRINGS RETURN APPROXIMATELY $5,000

By WILLIAM R. SANBORN A very satisfactory farm sale with a larger than average attendance of buy ers, was held by O. H. Thompson on his farm three miles north of Richj mond on the Middleboro pike, on Mon day. Mr. Thompson recently sola tne farm, formerly the J. W. Turner homestead, and his sale was a clean-up, with a raft of stuff to go under the hammer. The live stock included six head of horses and mules, 14 dairy cows, 3 spring calves and 84 hogs. The 200 Leghorn chickens also invited competition, and sold at from $1.55 to $1.70 each. This lot was divided between IC. Miller of Hollansburg and Roy Roberts, who will shortly move on to the Thompson place. The usual complement of farm tools and machinery was in evidence and sold according touse and quality. The offering included corn in the field which brought $32 per acre, mixed hay in the mow and straw in bales. Cows Bring $90 to $170 Roy Roberts, Charles Stradler and Donald Baynes. divided the dairy cows among them, at prices ranging from $90 to $170 for top. while J. F. Maher got the veals. There were 7 sows with 35 summer weanlings at their heels, and these were mostly bought by Roy Roberts, who also bought the bulk of the feeders, the rest being scattered among various buyers. It was conceded that the hogs brought all the market would warrant, for a whole lot of farmers still have faith in hogs and have plenty of new corn now almost fit for feeding.
