Of them both it could be said as lit was said of France's "Tiger that Ihey are "fit as a person of 50, Mrs. "Wilson is a charming, merry little person with twinkling blue eyes. She la very nimble and full of "pep." She declares," however, that she is "oldfashioned, always has been and al ways will be." Keen Sense of Humor Mr. Wilson is tall, handsome, and distinguished looking. He has snowwhite hair, white mustache, and kind ly blue eyes. His fund .of Stories is inexbaustable and sense of humor "unquestionable. His parents were C. T. Wilson and Amanda Hill Wilson who as early settlers came from Virginia, and made their home in Cen terville, where he was born in 1849. -Mrs. Wilson, who is a sister of the tJate Alec Gorman, was before her marriage Sarah Rebecca Gorman. She 'was born in Highland county, Ohio, put when 6he was still very young oier parents moved to Centerville, There she married C. M. Wilson In "1872 and they resided in Centerville 'until 24 years ago when they moved to Richmond. Bv trade Mn Wilson is hlacksmith. Fifty-four years ago he started as a blacksmith and Is still doing it: When he was a boy free , chool was for three months a year and lasted until a boy grew big enough Jo be useful about home and then he was taken out and put to work. Youths $n those days, says Mr. Wilson, were measured by their manhood and took great prido In how much wood they could chop, and how much corn they could shuck. There was no nlace for he educated man in those days, al there is now. In Musical Circles. As a musiqian Mr. Wilson has been nctive in the life of the community For 30 years he was a member of the City Band and his son, Robert C."Wilcon has been for 2o years a member. Both were members of the Symphony orchestra under the conductorship of Will Earhart, Ralph Sloan, and J. E. Maddy. Even before that time they were members of the city's first or chestra, an organization of about 30 pieces, under Frank Butler, which et imd practiced at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Gennett on East Main street. The organization was mainly for pleasure then, only one concert having been given so far as Mr. Wil "son remembers. He plays the tuba. Besides playing in the band and orchestra he has organized half a dozen bands in Wayne county. Oliver P. Morton, at the time he was lieutenant governor, lived in Centerville, Mr. Wilson says. He recalled when news reached Centerville that Morton naa been elected governor Morton 8 young son, John, ran up and down the street, shouting 'Rah for Pap! 'Rah for Pap!" Recalls Bitter Fight The county seat war, which was bit terly waged between residents of Centerville and Richmond when the seat was being moved here from that city. is recalled by Mr. Wilson as one of - the most thrilling incidents during his residence there. Before the matter had been entirely settled by law Richmond commenced maneuvres to move the records to thl3 city. Wagons and all available equipmen for moving the records was driven over to Centerville to move the rec(rds. The Centerville residents went o the blacksmith shop, got open links and, after the Richmond wagons had proceeded through the gates inside the iron fence surrounding the courthouse there, they took log chains and locked them inside the courtyard while the irate Centerville people sent to Indi anapolis for a restraining order. ; was secured, but later turned in fa Tor of Richmond..

Light guards were brought from Richmond and the iron fenco and cells removed from the jairto this city. When petl lions were gotten up by Richmond lor removal of the county seat the Centervillo people accused them of going to the cemeteries and copying the names off tombstones. The first court here was held in fuiHiiture factory at Fourth and Mai stieet, Mr. Wilson said. . Asked if he thought the boys of his day had more fun than those of today do, he replied that no one could tell about that because the boys of his day were men now and could not find out. He said pleasures were simpler then, but he thoupht boys were hav ing just as much fun in these times "Life," he continued, "is just what vou make It. You can find what you want. There's pleasure and happiness if you want it." Besides their son, Mr. and Mrs. Wil son have one grandson, Byron Wilson who is a student at Purdue university.

WEALTHY HUSBAND SUPPORTS PIGS IN PREFERENCE TO FAMILY, SAYS WIFE

H7 SI

Alfred 5. Hall, Jr f referred to tpend hit money on hit herd of blueblooded hoQ rather than on hit wife and children, according to the charget of hit pretty young wife, Katherine ! C. Hall, in her alimony fight in a Revere, Matt., court. Hall it the ton of a former mayor of Revere. The Halls were divorced tome time ago and alimony wat fixed at $100 monthly. EL. Mrs. Katherine C. Hall, of Revere, Mass., doesn't accuse her husband of casting her pearls before swine but she does charge that he spent his money supporting a herd of blueblooded pigs while she and her children went without alimony payments. This allegation was made when Mrs. Hall, whose husband, Alfred S. HaM, r., is a eon of a former mayor of Re vere, appealed to Judge Fosdiclc to help her collect the alimony awarded her at the time of the divorce four months ago. ' Mrs. Hall charged that her husband had money enough to maintain an expensive apartment, a luxuriant sedan and a sport car, twelve horses and 200 registered blue-blooded pigs. According to the testimony of Mrs. Hall in court, her husband had to de

AMERICAN FARMERS, DESPITE HARD WORK, ;

FIND SELVES AT SERIOUS DISADVANTAGE

WASHINGTON, Dec. 5. American ! farmers, comprising about one-third of the country's population, find them selves, notwithstanding their hard work and large production this year, still laboring under a serious disad vantage as compared with other groups of workers because of the distortionate relationship of prices, Secretary Wallace of the department of agriculture, told President Harding and the congress in his annual report. mere is iuou in buijera.oumia.uv.o, Mr. Wallace said, "and this contrib utes to the prosperity of business and industry for a time, but the Inadequate return which the farmer is receiving and has for three years, Inevitably musfc result in readjustments in the number of people in the farms and in the cities, which will not be for the continuing good of the nation." There has been a greatly acceler ated movement of farmers, and especially farmers' sons from the farms to the cities and industrial centers, the secretary reported, asserting that best estimates "indicate that during July, August and September twice as many persons left the larms ior uie cities as normally." The Rfic.retarv renewed his recom mendation for rural credits legislation, asserting that action should be taken promptly to increase the maximum which a farm loan bank may lend to an individual from f 10,000 to $25,000. He advocates also a readjustment of the term loans may run, saying a system should be established bv which the farmer could borrow for periods of from six montns to three years. Creation or a new dureau of home economics was urgea bv the secretary to enable the depart ment to extend its efforts toward better economics Bystems in the rural community. Needs Immediate Attention Another problem requiring immedi ate attention, the secretary said, was "the necessity of working out and applying a comprehensive plan of protecting, regrowing and utilizing our forests." He said forest legislation should be enacted extending federal co-operation to the states in the protection of forests, co-ordinating state and federal service in me growing ana distribution of forest planting mate rial, extending purchase of timberland "as ranidlv as the condition, of the treasury will permit," and covering in to national forests some areas now comprised in Indian reservations. The secretary reported good prog ress in organization of the packers and stockyards administration and the grain futures administration, in the campaign against plant pests, and in the various other lines of service in which his department is interested. Wrong Relationship This year would be a prosperous year for agriculture, and consequently a prosperous year for the nation, if the relationship of prices now was such as existed before the war, secre tary Wallace said. There has been some increase in prices of farm pro ducts, but there has not been much improvement in the general relation ship, between the prices of the things the farmer produces ana tne tnings he buys. Among the causes which contribute to the abnormal relationship of farm prices to the prices of other things, Secretary Wallace menuonea tnese: Overproduction of many farm crops Continued high freight rates. Maintenance of industrial wages at near wartime levels. Economic depression and depreciat ed currency of European countries. Interference with the efficient func tioning of necessary industries. Unreasonably high costs of distri bntion of some farm products. Picturing the plight of American farmers Secretary Wallace sajd the production records of this year give a vivid illustration of the vitality of American agriculture and of the courage and hopefulness of the American farmer. . Some Hopeful Aspects. "Certainly no other industry could have taken the losses agriculture has taken and maintain production," he said, "and we have no evidence to

cide whether to spend his money on the pigs or on hia family. Both re quired food and housing. She did not volunteer the reason for his decision; whether it was inspired by the company he preferred or by the question of affection or nvironment. At any rate he s$ent his money on the pigs and let his wife and two children, Betty, aged four, and Alfred, aged two, get on as best they coura In court Hall admitted ownership of the automobiles and the piggery and conceded that he was backward in making 'his alimony payments. His only explanation was: "I can't pay it because I haven't got it." Judge Fosdick advised Mrs. Hall to lay the facta of the case before the district attorney. , show that aay other group of workers would have taken the reduction in wages in the spirit in which the farmers have taken their reduction. Many thousands of farmers have not been able to weather the storm, notwith standing their strenuous efforts. Thousands who purchased land during the period of high prices have been obliged to give up the struggle, let their land go back, lose all the money they paid on it, and start anew. Many thousands of renters who had substantial savings invested in farm equipment and live stock have gone through the same experience and have lost everything." There are some hopeful aspects to the situation notwithstanding the continued low purchasing power of farm products, Secretary Wallace pointed out. Irt Better Position Tt Is fair to say that in general the farmers of the United States are in a better position financially now than they were a year or eighteen months ago," he said. "Farm products are selling at considerably higher prices, and it is estimated the aggregate value of the crops in the country this year is about $1,250,000,000 more than last yeat Considerable quantities of these crops will be fed and the in creased value will not be wholly re coveredby the farmer, but the bare fact that such a large increase in money will reach the farmers' pock ets this year is most gratifying and reassuring. "The advance in price of cotton has been most helpful throughout the cot ton growing Btates. Considerably higher prices for wool, lambs and sheep have resulted In pulling the sheep industry out of the slough of despond and setting it on its feet again. Right through the period of de pression hogs have been selling at con siderably higher prices relatively than corn. On the whole, it has been fairly satisfactory year for cattle feeders. Credit conditions have improved and interest rates have fallen. See Menace to Themselves Another hopeful sign is the Increas Ing willingness and desire of people engaged In industry, commerce and finance to help bring about a more fav orable adjustment for the farmer. Such people are coming to realize more and more the menace to them selves in conditions so unfavorable to agriculture as those of the last three years. Their attitude toward the farmer has changed from that of a benevolent paternalism such as was so much in evidence during the ten years preceding the war. They now understand more clearly tttat their own future is inseparably linked up with the farmer, and that In doing what they can to help him get on his feet again they are helping themselves as well." In relation to the price of farm products at the farms and prices charged for farm products in the cities, Secretary Wallace said the cost of distribution remains high, notwithstanding frequent violent denunciations of profiteers in the cities. In part, this high cost of distribution, he said, is caused bythe multiplication of distributing agencies during the last six years, in part by the increase in rent, and supplies, but in larger part by the higher wages which employes in the distributing business have been able to maintain. Taxes on farms in most farming states have more than doubled and is proving to be one of the most frequent subjects of complaint by farmers, and during the next few years the whole question of taxation. Mr. Wallace said, will evidently receive considerable attention by thoughtful farmers. RUSH TO BE PRESIDENT OF DEMOCRATIC CLUB NEW YORK, Dec 6. Thomas E.

SUN-TELEGRAM, RICHMOND,

NEED OF EDUCATION TOLD TO ROTARIANS BY BUTLER PRESIDENT "There are three great Interests in education today that thow that education is improving and is becoming one of the most important factors in our modern life." said Robert J. Aley, president "Of Butler college when he ad dressed the Rotary club, Tuesday. The meeting was held in accordance with the national- education week program. The first of these is the popular Interest in the development of the school system. For years education has been the concern of the state and people generally are more interested in the schools than ever before. The speaker then reviewed the large growth in the amount of money spent for buildings, equipment and teachers salaries within the last few years and stated that the increased interest has been of great benefit to the country in that more ohildren are being given an opportunity to educate themselves and that each year the number of graduates from high school is increasing. The second great interest, said the speaker, is the interest being taken by the business and professional men in the college graduate. This, he said, is one of the most outstanding victories long in the achieving of modern education-Colleges Must Grow ' "There never will be a perfect col lege, at least, I hope not," Baid Mr. Aley. "When Earlham college gets to the point that it is perfect, I would advise that you close it up. The college, like another institution or body must grow to develop and when growth stops and there are no new problems for the college, then there is something wrong somewehere." "And then I would cite you to the great benefit to the nation and the interest with which the announcement is met that education is eraduallv solving the problems of illiteracy in the United States," said the speaker in staung uie third great interest in education. He reviewed the illiteracy situation in this country stating that all of the illiterate vote in the coun try could swing any election. "Indiana is not the lowest in point of illiteracy." said Dr. Aley. "but neith er has she the highest rating. We have many problems to solve alone this line, and education is one of the big factors in the situation." Should Develop Patriotism The function of the school is to de velop patriotism and love of country. in the hearts of young America. In this we have partially failed in that there Is much lawlessness among the youth or today," said the speaker. "Education ought to equip the youth with that common and constantly in creasing knowledge that he must have to get on in society. The fundamental truths are vastly larger than they were years ago. And again, education must leave the youth of the nation unsatisfied with his condition. If there should be a graduate from your college or university with the Idea that he is per fect and that he can learn no more, then there is something wrong with that educational institution," declared the college president. "It Is the aim of education to point out to the Intel ligent mind the questions which are to be solved and which are beckon ing him on to greater worlds to con quer." World Needs Leaders "The institution of higher learning is a great need. It develops the lead er, and we need the leader. It is the most capable students who reach the highest points in their chosen work, We need the outstanding students along their various lines in the teach ing profession, for here we can not have blind leaders. They must have at least four years ahead of those they teach.' The speaker stated that the day when the teacher had to work hard to keep ahead of his pupils was past and that today the teacher mus be a leader in more than educational requirements. Preceding the speaker and during the luncheon several fine musical numbers were played by a small group of eight musicians picked from the Morton high school orchestra. WINTER MAKES FIRST DETERMINED STAND (By Associated Prss) CHICAGO, Dec. 5.

Referring to what he termed "the next war," Mr. Foulkes said: "It threatens to break down our constitutional government. The most alarming fight we face today is the struggle between the law respecting citizenry and the advocates of license under the guise of 'personal liberty.' Governor Henry J. Allen of Kansas advocated the industrial court law, of which he was sponsor. He criticised labor agitators and "paid strike lead ers," the business of being a labor leader, he asserted, is "a great in dustry." "There are 150,000 paid secretaries of war," he asserted, "working for the unions. They drain the labor organisations of J60.000.000 every year. They naturally oppose the industrial court because they live on labor warfare. They are afraid of the Kansas industrial court" MRS.
