City Planning Exhibit. ' In the permanent picture gallery the city planning exhibit has been : hung. It was loaned by the American Federation of Art, Metropolitan Museum, New York. The Sachs exhibit occupies the en- . tire east gallery. Handsome embroideries, lovely batiks and beautiful designs painted in fino colors on paper for tapestries, batiks and wall paper. and a number of portrait heads are hung.' On tables and in cases are exhibited lustre ware, books of designs, and Sakona parchment lamp shades and shields. Mr. Sachs' school in Dayton, which is In connection with the Dayton Museum of Art, has taken the lead in a new movement in art and is the center of much interest at the present time. i Explains School Speaking of the school and the ultimate need which it is designed to fill, Mr. Sachs Fays: "Present conditions in America are such that the brilliant and exceptional young -artist finds no opportunity to put his talents to a practical use as is possible in other countries. Architecture, interior and home decorations reflect a co'.d spirit of commercialism, a catering to the cheap taste and general lack of culture thai lo not tend to cultivate the highest aesthetic development of youth. "There is the greatest need for the placing of the artist with creative gifts at the service of hi3 community for its betterment and into the situation where he will develop his highest powers," Mr. Sachs asserts. "Under these conditions only can art become a true expression of modern life by applying its principles to industrial needs. "Rapidly changing styles in dress, home decoration, and all other details of modern life indicate that there -is an underlying desire for beauty on the part of the public. Fast experience has 'shown that enterprises importing or putting out art objects with any degree of merit have met with success, therefore it is very evident that there is a demand for art goods cf superior quality." The school as it is now directed makfs it possible for the artist to develop and earn as well, at the same lime supplying art objects of exceptional value and originality to the rnarkft. It purposes to attract the trained artist and the retaining of such a person in his community to heroine an active force in building cultural and economic life of the future. ASKS FOR GLEANING OF SNOW OFF WALKS To the Editor of The Palladium: Following the recent downfall of enow, it is probable that less than one-third of the sidewalks in Richmond were cleaned as provided for in the ordinance to be found on page 316 of th Council ordinance book printed in 1916. ' Around private residences of some of the most prominent citizens, in front of some of the churches, and of th? court house, the s.now was permitted to lie until partly removed by i hawing. A few days ago a film of ice rendered these places dangerous, while sidewalks which had been cleaned were dry and free from ice. Asks Observance It is v.-ith a considerable degree of ?afsfs:.'';ori, therefore, that the public learn-- t'lat a resolution was passed in council Monday night to compel the observance of the ordinance, and the writer feels that he is giving voice to the approving sentiment of the community. He would like, however, to call tho attention of council to some other ordinances which have become a dead i . ...... r ,, o 1 o 014 deals with spitting on sidewalks or other named public property; another to protect permanently improved sidewalks from the washing of dirt, gravel or sand from elevated lots this in connection with the ordinance relating to the removal of snow. And the last one which the writer will name, though by no means the least, an ordinance which provides toe protection of foot passengers from automobiles. The city's protective force is doing good work in trying to secure enforcement nf the nrohibiton lawa. Throueh laxness in enforcement of these other i tartont tn the pr.mfr.rt ami health of the community have been allowed to lapse. It will not avail much to plan a city beautiful until these and other similar requirements of the law are met. OBSERVER.

At a meeting of the vestry held Sept. 18, 1838, it was resolved to erect a church building.

The 1 I JUllJ UllUli.ll, VVC3L -vlicli, X a-., aim was to cost not more than ?6,000. On May 10, 1839, the site on which the present church plant stands wa3 selected as the location. On May 23, 1839, the congregation met for the purpose of organizing according to the laws of the state and the legal incorporation was recorded in June and in the same months bide for the building of the church were opened, but were rejected because they were thought to be too high. With a view to decreasing the cost it was decided to burn the brick on the church lot, and Judge Stanton, who had been appointed superintendent of construc tion, reported in October that 250,000 bricks had been burned and the necessary stone purchased. Tne foundation was laid gratuitiously by Messrs. John. James and Caleb Addleman, who lived at Whitewater. Solicits Funds In June, 1S40, Mr. Fiske visited the east to solicit funds, and returned in November with $2,000 in cash and pledges. By Dec. 21. 1841, all contracts had been completed and the work accepted, and in February, 1842, the congregation moved into the basement of the church, which was all that had been constructed up to that date. Shortly after this, it was decided to build a rectory on the northwest end of the lot and in September, 1843, a story and a half building was completed, at a cost of $354. In June, 1844, Mr. Fiske again went east and returned with $2,000 more, and the church was fully completed by July, 1849. The entire cost of the church ot was $8,000, or $2,000 more than had been originally estimated. and lots The Rt. Rev. George Upfold, D. D., was consecrated first Bishop of Indiana on Dec. 16, 1849. and the first visitation in his episcopate was made to &t. I'aut s church, Richmond, on Dec. 20, when he confirmed a class of candidates, consecrated the church, and instituted Mr. Fiske as rector. Mr. Fiske resigned as rector on Nov. 20, 1835. Called as Rector The Rev. John B. Wakefield. D. D, was called to be rector of the parish on the same date that Mr. Fiske resigned. A few years afterward a new organ was purchased, displacing a smaller instrument that was bought in 1846. In 1864 the second story of the rectory was completed and in 1S66 the church was enlarged. As a result of a decided opinion concerning the need of a local hospital, St. Stephen's hospital was organized on June 13, 1884. and the first patient was' admitted on August' 26, of that year1. A building was secured on the
pital. The institution was not endowed and deficits were made up by private subscriptions. The Rev. Dr. Wakefield resigned as rector in 1S84. The Rev. Frank Hallam was called to the rectorship in 1884 and resigned in 1SS9. The most notable event dur ing his rectorship was the raising of the 'church debt which amounted to !

They had filled over 100 engagements for the university while attending the school. Robert Wr. McBride, tenor, is considered one of the best in lyceum work. Walter Van Dyke, second tenor and pianist, has had considerable experience in New York City and excels in his work with the quartet.

The four men are all considered high-class singers and entertainers. The following program will be given Friday night: rBE AN OPTIMIST Don't carry around with you wherever you go a grouchy look and an air of gloom! There are many people not strong-willed enough to combat the gefm of despondency, and when you air your pessimism in their presence it's the same as though you scattered a horde of disease germs around them, They all go down with the malady. And these same people are just as susceptible to the joy germ as they are to the gloom term. They have no resistance they catch whatever comes along. What would you rather be a spreader of disease or the doctor who cures that disease? Others have already preceded you in sowing the -flerm of gloom. Don't aggravate the malady! Instead, go about with a smile and a cheerful word, and watch your germ of optimism overcome the pessimistic germ! Kl WAN ACE. NAVY PUTS STOP TO WORK ON WARSHIPS TOKIO, Feb. 8 Th navy department has ordered dockyards to stop construction work on the eight battleships and battle cruisers now on the ways which are to be scrapped in accordance with the Washington conference agreement. The battleships are the Kaga, Kii, Owari, and Tosa. The battle cruisers are the Atago, Akagi, Amagi and Takao. Construction of auxiliary craft set for the fiscal year 192825, will be advanced to the present in order to afford employment for the dockyard workers. MOSCOW LENDERS GET 100 PER CENT RATE MOSCOW, Feb. 8. One hundred percent a month is the average interest charged in Moscow, which has become a money lenders' paradise. Not withstanding the seven trillion or more rubles printed in the last four years, there is not enough money in circulation to accommodate the de mands of business and speculation, Virtually everybody lives by specula tion and thousands clamor daily for loans of from 30,000,000 to 200,000,000 rubles each.' ' The interest rate does not look so high to a man . who can triple nis money by the simple expedient of journeying to distant points like Kiev, or Thshkent, where food is cheap, and bringing back a few hundred pounds of flour, honey or potatoes. If a group of people wish to open a store they offer, say 100,000,000 rubles, payable at the end of a month for the loan of a like amount. Then they charge three or four times the legitimate price f their commodities, and both they and the money lender profit. The money lender is secured against loss by the deposit of jewels or other negotiable property. Money lending at such rates is against the law which however, is rarely invoked. If it were generally enforced the Cheka would be obliged to look up most of the business people of the city, including many communists. GERMANS PAY PART OF REPARATION PRICE PARIS, Feb. 8. The German government today made its third payment of 31,000,000 gold marks to the allied reparations commission, in accordance with the 10-day payment schedule recently adopted by the commission at Cannes, according to announcement by the Temps.

'By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 8. Although
one out of every seven persons in Indiana now has a telephone, according to a recent survey, an expenditure of $4,500,000 during the coming year is planned by telephone companies operating in the state so that they may lni crease their facilities. , ; The Indiana Bell Telephone company expects to add 5,500 telephones to its switchboards during the year and will also string 1,750 miles of new wire. These additions will be made at la cost estimated at $3,000,000. Twen ty-one independent companies operat ing in the state plan improvements to cost $1,500,000.
