Productions from the grades surprised many parents who had little conception of the work which

the young artists of the city are doing. Art and music have been taught in the Richmond schools for many years, and the result Is to be seen in the general love for the beautiful which is being manifested. In the development of . music and art, the schools must take the lead. Not every pupil will become a musician or artist, but all of them are better off for having a knowledge of these topics. Music and art cannot be classed with some of the frills in the school system against which some parents are objecting. They are cultural attainments worth while developing. The exhibit of the most meritorious productions of the pupils serves to encourage them in obtaining proficiency in art work. The stimulating effect of the display is reflected in the increased interest of the pupils in their work. Art displays of the pupils help to develop the : art -"work of the community.

Rippling Rhymes By WALT MASON LOOKING FOR IT. The man who always looks for grief is Bure to find the goods he seeks; his search is peradventure, brief, or it may last seven weeks. , But when he finds his grief hes prone to wish he'd sought for other things, and puts up a bitter groan, the while the Wise Man smiles and sings. The man who doesn't pay his bills hunts grief, and he will run.it down; the course he follows always kills a fellow's standing in the town. - And when he runs for county clerk, or tries to follow other plans, his creditors get in their work, and he is with the also rans. The scandal .monger's hunting woe, and ho is close upon its heels, some ugly tale he whispers low will reach the man with whom it deals. Then there will be a frightful scene of violence, the moon beneath; and Mr. Scandalman will lean against a fence and spit out teeth. If grief's invited to your home, it's sure to come, -with its valise, and it will furrow your old dome, and never give you any peace. It's better far iO.bunt for joy,and ask it to your cheap abode; say kindly things and don't anoy tife jays along the road. Be honest as the day is long and earn the kopecks in your purse; then life will be a grand sweet song, a chorus after every verse. Good Evening Down in San Antonio, they are going to use bats to fight mosquitoes. But in New Jersey, , where mosquitoes are thickest, the new state dry laws forbid bats. Dr. Einstein says he cannot measure the universe. But he should not despair. Some very famous people have tried that recently and failed. CONFESSIONS OF A CYNIC. I am always sure that nobody will care to dig up my past because I took an oath many years ago to the effect that I would never go into politics. I have never yet seen a man who Would not admit that, he had several undesirable relatives. M always believe when I pee a man looking: at himself . in a plate glass window that nature makes a mistake - once in a while. - I think a barber shop at 8 o'clock on Monday morning is the most dismal place in the world. I am a very wise sort of guy. but there are a lot of wiser ones than I am. which I realize every time I take a look at a lot of yellow and timeworn notes that I have been obliged to pay. - I dont believe that Japan wants to fight Unci Sam, because I do not ' think ' that J Japan has actually gone . nutty as yet.

try cause the ' increased prices which we are paying for articles made of wood. The woodusing industries, which formerly obtained their supply near at hand, are now forced to buy in southern and western markets. The cost of

transportation is one of the heavy elements in the final price of the article. The problem of reforestation is being attacked from many sides. The Indiana, conservation commission is urging farmers to plant trees on land which is unfit for agricultural purposes. Roadside memorial trees is another movement that rapidly has attained enthusiastic reception over the entire country. In some states where they are thousands of acres of logged-off land, unsuited for farming

and weeds, efforts are under way to plant trees j

for the purpose

tions with a timber supply. Another phase of the question, also of great importance, is the safeguarding of the trees in our parks and parking strips against the ravages of blight, scale and insects which are threatening them. Many trees in Chicago are being cut down now because they are infected with scale. More than 50 million acres of logged-off land in eight states of the Middle West are to receive careful attention. If these can be replanted with trees suitable for commercial purposes, a big step will have been taken in the conservation of the timber supply. Fortunately the gravity of the problem was appreciated in time so that public interest could be aroused in time to conserve and prepare for the future. Trees are now looked upon as one of our most valuable possessions. Every tree that is planted is a boon to the coming generation. It will serve a public need.

Two Minutes of Optimism By HERMAN J. STICH

CHAUNCEY DEPEW CELEBRATES Chauncey M. Depew, arch generator of good cheer in the hearts and souls of humans, recently celebrated his eighty-seventh birthday. For far further back than we can remember, Mr. Depew has been dispending optimism, wisdom, some philosophy and happiness as naturally and as generously as Old Sol himself radiates his benificent light and warmth; yet he blooms perennially in the spring a year younger in appearance, in manner-and in spirit than he was a twelve-month before. "The world, is a mighty good place to live in, and people, take them as they come, a mighty good sort to live with." is his conclusion after more than three and a half Ecorer-years of active, intimate contact with all kinds and conditions of persons and things. Eighty-seven years behind him is merely a "pusher" toward Mr. Depew's great goal the century mark. He has enjoyed life so much he wants to see more of it, and he has faith that tomorrow will be a little better than today, which in itself goes a long way toward making tomorrow happier and sunnier. "The world needs humor," Mr; Depew said, his blue eyes dancing. "Think of it," he continued, as a shadow of sadness crept into his face and voice, "on a recent six weeks' trip, I was not able to pick up a single funny story. Most of the world's great humorists Mark Twain, Artemus Ward, Josh Billings have gone, and there is no one to take their place. A real funny story that would travel 'round the world and set us laughing for a day would help cure many of the ills of mankind. It almost looks like we have forgotten how to laugh, and there is no one to make us.' If things get a little more desperate, Imay have to tell a new funny story myself! "A young fellow came in today with a list of the world's problems he wanted me to settle right off," continued Mr. Depew as his face lightened up again. "I told him, 'No, life's too short. Nearly everybody asks me which of my birthdays was the happiest My answer Is, 'the last one,' for it is the sum of all its predecessors. The real secret of health, happiness and longevity is to forget all the disagreeable things people and all that, and remember and thing only of the good things, good people, good friends and honorable men you have known. That beats Professor Einstein's theory of relativity and every other theory all hollow." "Keep in touch with the young," he says. "Join in their games. Be a feature in the dance; romp fastest and turn quickest in the Virginia reel or the country dance. Go up to the old college and light your pipe, and sing college songs. Take your children to the theater and howl with them at the roaring farce, and laugh with them at the comedy, and cry with them at the tragedy. Be their confidant in their love affairs, and if they are not equal to it, write their love-letters, and never stop writing some for yourself." Here's looking at you, Chauncey. Yon love the world, which is one reason why the world loves you. And everybody wishes you the best of everything, and everything else you wish yourself.

After a short Time To Face the Facts "So much has been said against the use of patent medicines that I have had a strong prejudice against them. But after four years doctoring with six different doctors, without results, for acute indigestion, gastritis, constipation, appendicitis and other ailments, I was said to possess, I was encouraged to try Mayr'e Wonderful Remedy, seeing what it had done for a friend similarly afflicted. I also was entirely relieved of my trouble, and am sore this medicine will do all and. more than is claimed for it."

The teacher had given the boys this subject for composition: "What I would do if I suddenly came into possession of $10,000." One little fellow, after chewing his penholder for some time, returned a blank sheet. "That," replied the precious youth, "is what I'd do if I had $10,000." The Easiest Way To End Dandruff There is one sure way that never fails to remove dandruff completely and that is to dissolve it. This destroys it entirely. To do this, just get about four ounces of plain, ordinary liquid arvon; apply it at night when retiring; use enough to moisten the scalp and rub in gently with the finger tips. By morning, most, if not all, of your dandruff will be gone, and three or four more applications will completely dissolve and entirely destroy every single sign and trace of it, no matter how much dandruff you may have. You will find, too, that all itching and digging of the scalp will stop instantly, and your hair will be fluffy, lustrous, glosy, silky and soft, and look and feel a hundred times better. You can get liquid arvon at any drug store. It is inexpensive, and four ounces is all you will need. This simple remedy has never been known to fail. Advertisement.

SUN - TELEGRAM, RICHMOND,

TODAY'S TALK By George Matthew Adams, Author of "You Can." "Take IV "Up" : EUGENE WIGGINS I have sways enried the artist more than the writer tor the reason that his expression has seerped to be more pregnant than the writer's. Type is Tery cold but color is very warm! And sometimes as I look at a magnificent painting, I imagine that the artist has associated with his heart quite a good deal more with his brain. Eugene Higgins is a New York artist. I might better say an American artist. Bat in still truer words, I should say that he is a Mankind artist. For what country can claim one whose work must inevitably belong to the world? Must the work of Rembrandt be boarded up -in the confines of some Holland, or the genius and beauty of Milet or Corot be left to a France? You won't find the work of this young man in many galleries. He is little known just now. But for 25 years he has been working and painting painting and working. Recognition has been coming slowly. Through the long night of poverty and waiting be has patiently gone his way painting and painting and painting, willing to bide his time. I have been watching bis work for many years now. Recently I went to his studio. I felt that I had walked into the place of a master. All about me I saw evidence of the years' toll that must preface greatness in art. Paintings of exquisite beauty but few coming to claim them! ' For Higgins paints the things that he feels and that the world fails to see, moBtly as Millet and Legros did tramps, hard-handed and back-bent tollers, the unfortunates to whom life . has come with its extra burdens. But with what color he clothes them! Subdued blues, browns, greens, reds and gold. You feel the solidity of the thoughts of this artist and you are immediately linked in sympathy with bis as you understand the human elements of beauty that live anew in every tree, man, child, dog or lowering sun which be has immortalized with his brush. Some day Eugene Higgins will be appreciated at his true worth. And at that time every one of the great paintings which now fill his studio will be as prized as is the one that inspires me as I write this all too inadequate appreciation of him and his work.

Who's-Who in th D XT ay s news RICHARD WASHBURN CHILD Like the former ambassador of Rome, Robert Underwood Johnson, the new envoy to Italy, Richard Washburn Chjld,N is far from being a man of great wealth, and in naming him, President Harding had followed a recent policy of filling diplomatic posts with editors and other "literary men. Mr. Child, who was formerly editor of Collier's Weekly and who has distinguished himself as a novelist and writer of magazine stories, began his literary career on the Lamte. w. child poon at Harvard and also as president of the Harvard Advocate. In his senior year he was librettist of the Hasty Pudding play. As an active worker in the political field, he was prominently identified with the Bull Moose party as well as with Mr. Harding's own campaign of last fall. He was born in Worcester, Mass., in 1881. He is a member of the executive committee of the ItalyAmerica Sovitz. Answers to. Questions N t INTERESTED What woman, reared as a Quaker, performed the duties of chaplain in the Connecticut Legislature and was the first woman ordained to the ministry in New England? The woman preacher about whom you inquire is the Rev. Phoebe A. Hanaford, now 95 years of age, residing at Buffalo, N. Y. She was the first ordained woman minister and was ordained into the Universalist ministry. She had a pastorate at New Haven, Conn., and it is likely that while she was settled there she served as a chaplain for the legislature, at the time that New Haven was one of the State c&pitols. INFORMATION WANTED Will HOW TO REDUCE VARICOSE VEINS Many people have become despondent because they have been led to believe that there is no remedy that will reduce swollen veins and bunches. If you will get a two ounce original bottle of Moone's Emerald Oil 'full strength) at any first class drug store and apply it at home as directed you will quickly notice an improvement which will continue until the veins and bunches. are reduced to normal. Moone's Emerald Oil is very concentrated and a bottle lasts a long time that's why it is a most inexpensive treatment. It has brought much comfort to worried people all over the country and is one of the wonderful discoveries of recent years and always bear in mind that anyone who is disappointed with its use can have their 'money refunded.

ELEMENTARY SCHOOL PUPILS IN CHICAGO NEED CARE, REPORT - (By Associated Press) . CHICAGO, 111., May 24. The disquieting fact that children from six

to fourteen have poorer fire protection, less light and air. and poorer teaching than children from fourteen to eighteen, is revealed by a study now being carried on by the Bette ' Schools Service of The American Federation of Teachers. I "Every .comprehensive school surI vey published within the past . six ' months confirms the fact that it is the ' children of elementary school age who j are the most poorly housed and taught," said Miss Josephine Colby, ot ! Chicago, in a talk before the American ! Federation ot Teachers here. "The average elementary school building j and the , average elementary school teacner are inferior in equipment to the average high school building and high school teacher. Old Buildings Offenders. "From inadequate lighting, heating, and ventilating, the younger children type of building was seldom scientifically planned. In the school designed twenty years ago, stale air, dusty air, cold floors, extremes of temperature, insufficient, uneven or glaring light, some or all of these drawbacks are sure to prevail. The recent report jof the American City Bereau on the I housing of school children shows that J in the cities of the Great Lakes, East ern and Great Plains regions, one-half of the elementary school children arc housed in buildings of the vintage of from twenty-three to twenty-six years ago. On the other hand, less than oneouarter of the high school pupils of American cities are in buildings as old as those housing one-half the. elementary pupils. Youngest Need Care.
