Capitalizing on Our Assets Richmond need not go far afield to find distinctive advantages which exalt this city above other municipalities and give its citizenship talk

ing points in advertising and promoting her

worth. .

Most of us agree that a city need not have a

large population, hundreds of industrial plants.

scores of jobbing houses, and countless other

material advantages to recommend itself to prospective residents or to give it a distinctive place in the state. Distinction may be developed along an entire

ly different line, and yet, in the end, be the very

zause that ultimately bring about increased pop ulation and added wealth.

Richmond, for instance, is known throughout Indiana for its general culture and the high average intelligence of its citizenship. The gradual development of the art and music idea in this city in the last 25 years has made an impression all over Indiana. This asset has not been developed to its fullest extent, however. One may say, without fear of underestimating the efforts of the promoters

of art and music, that the foundation has been1

laid, a firm and sound one, that rests not on the whim and fancy of a few but on the general

consciousness of the whole community. This distinctive phase of our community should be developed broadly and firmly. Let that be the starting point of a systematic and organized effort to broadcast our renown through the country. William Dudley Foulke, in a. speech, presenting the claims which some cities make for renown, said that a municipality need not consider itself great because of its big population or in

dustrial expansion, but might find the reason for its excellence in a citizenship that aspires for greatness in the realms of art and music. He expressed the hope that Richmond would seek an exalted place in the Indiana commonwealth through the channels in which its genius has already asserted itself potently and effectively. These advantages are here. We are not required to create them or waste many years developing them to the point of excellence. This work has been done. We are remiss in not exploiting them so that the state will know of them. We have not been

sufficiently alert and enterprising to let others know of our superiority in this respect. The development of this cultural asset should be one of the enterprises of the city. If an art center, sufficiently large to accommodate the growing collection of paintings and to offer seating capacity for the audiences that enjoy the musical programs, is one means, whereby this can be fostered, civic leaders might give the matter serious attention.

only slightly diminished after 14 days salting, but after a longer period meat is greatly altered, and it is also to be considered that salted meat Is more difficult of digestion than fresh meat.

Who Invented he hook and ladder fire escape? M. V. B. A. The patent office says that the earliest domestic patent in this class was that of John Ernst, granted in 1857. He was manifestly not the pioneer inventor, for he described his invention as an "Improved Firehook."

APPRENTICESHIP In a large sense we are apprentices for life. For no matter how high we excel, there is always something infinitely bigger and greater which wa must all go. The satisfied remain on the lower ground and play their lives away, content to be discontented. For they can arouse no power within to stimulate and spur them out of their lethargy and sleep. Stevenson, writing along this line of apprenticeship, has this to eay: "The life of the apprentice to any art is both unstrained and pleasing: It is strewn with small successes in the midst of a career of failure, patiently supported; the heaviest scholar is' conscious of a certain progress. But the time comes when a man should cease prelusory gymnastic, stand up, put a violence upon his will, and for better or worse, begin the business of creation." I look into my yard where a gardener is working. I watch him. He 13 past middle life yet he i3 still serving his apprenticeship for he has not learned to be a creator. He can only do as he is told. The world admires the man who drops his playthings and enters upon the task of a man. It is true, however, that we must all pass' through our own particular apprenticeships. And we must be patient during them. But we must keep learning and testing out our strength for the day when we shall pass into real creative work for ourselves. We must not only delight in the thrills that expertness and preparedness bring, but we must keep fortifying every faculty at- our command to keep this ability for appreciation fresh and lasting. Fos who is so to be pitied as the one who can no longer rejoice In the zest which life daily affords? Serve your apprenticeship and then pass onl

After Dinner Stories The "family were out of town, and the house was left in charge of a young housemaid. On opening the door the first morning she found the charwoman standing there, obviously angry. "I've been ringing and ringing here for the last half hour," she said. "Why ever didn't you come sooner?" "Oh, was that you?" replied the housemaid. "You kept on so regularly that I thought It was only the telephone ! " Barney Barnard Is responsible for the story of the Gentile who bought a packet of cigarets from Mr. Isaac Isaacstein, his regular tobacconist. "Isaac," said the customer after the

' purchase had been completed, "you gave me a bad shilling in my change the other night." "Impossible," answered Isaac. "I never took or gave a bad coin in ray life. With my forty years experience in handling money, I can tell by the touch at once; physical instinct, my boy. I suppose you managed to get rid of it?" - "Yes." was the reply. "I have just paid it to you for these cigarets."

Xo. 174 To Form Four Equal Triangles With Six Matches. Pix matches are laid on the table and a spectator is asked to place them so that they form four equal triangles. Three are tbe most any one will be able to make. The performer, however, accomplishes the apparently Impossible feat. The solution Is shown by the diagram Three of the matches are laid forming a triangle. The other three are placed like a tripod, each match starting from an angle of the triangle on the table and coming together at the same point. The upright matches art held In position by the thumb and forefinger of one hand. Thus four equal triangles are formed, one on the table and three standing. CopvrieM. mi. by Pvblio Ltigtr Comyw

governments policies in wheat distri

bution, and act as

purchasing agent of the American re

lief association. Barnes is a na

tice of Arkansas but spent his childhood at Washington. He has lived in Duluth most of his life. He has been Identified with the grain industry

since early manhood. He and his as

sociates in the grain corporation were all large purchasers and exporters of foodstuffs before the war, and all were

volunteer workers. Barnes career)

wrm the government began when Mr. Hoover made him head of the wheat division of the food administration. He achieved signal success as an executive at the head of the grain corporation. When he entered on the work, there wa3 a shortage of wheat from the 1917 crop, but when the crop was finally distributed, there was practically none left, yet no part of the

In addition, about 140,000,000 bushels had been exported to the army and the allied countries, saved by the American people from their own

tables.

MYSTERIOUS RUSSIA In Russia men are starving, and starving are their wives; there are no roasts for carving when dinner time arrives. The kids in vain are calling for liverwurst and pie; the vultures see them falling, and tear them when they die. These facts I gain by reading a book just from the

press; I see poor Russia bleeding, and weep in my distress. But here's a vol

ume printed a few brief days ago; and in this book it's hinted that Russia has no woe. The people, fat and hearty, have cake and pie and bread, and laugh at any smarty who says they are not fed. The yarn that Russia suffers, is reckless and unkind; it's

spread abroad by duffers who have an ax to grind. They have it in for Troskl, and Lenine's name they hate, and they are writing rotski at quite a vicious gait. I read one book and mutter, in sympathetic tones, "Poor creatures in the gutter: I'll send them fifty bones!" And then I read another and say, "I'll kep my mon; the Rus

sian man and brother is having lots of fun." Alas for human vision! Two

people lok at things; one says they are elysian, and one the hammer swings. Lessons in Correct English Don't Say: He never WANTED for clients.
