CHARACTER BUILDING DISCUSSED BY RORER AT KIWANIS SESSION
Deaths and Funerals
"Character is that which determines a man's destiny," declared Dr. Virgil E. Rorer, pastor of the, Meridian Street church ol Indianapolis, who addressed the Kiwanls club Thursday. "Gou Iooks at the character in a man. Ha does not judge him by the clothes which he wears, nor does He Judge him by his wealth.'.' Dr. Rorer related the story of Horace Greeley's life. "Horace Greeley worked hard and lived in a simple manner. He apparently saved everything he made, except a few cents each week on which to live. Greeley laid aside $25 for a rainy day. One day a position higher up was open in
the firm in which Greeley was em
ployed, but the employer advanced a
subordinate ahead of Greeley, merely because the latter had shown signs of being a close hoarder of money. Greeley wore but one suit of clothes for several years, and it wore so shiny that he was called 'looking glass. "The truth of the situation came Aut finally. Horace Greeley was saving all he could and sending it to his father out west to pay off a mortgage on his father's property. The employer saved Greeley's suit and put it in a glass case as a reminder of the great character which was represented in that garment. God looks at the character in a man, and not at the clothes which he wears. Character is the greatest thing In two worlds. ' Making of Character. "Prof. James, of the physycholoffv department of Harvard, once said, 'As the wheels of the wagon cuts the rut in the roads, so do our acts cut ruts in our life. The character of the man will be imbedded into the soul as his life continues. "Value, power and influence of life depend upon what a man is in char
acter." Dr. Roren continued. "Car
lyle labored all night on his manuscript of: the French revolution and as the day. was breaking, he neared
the finish. After the precious paper had been finished he retired. A ser
vant came through the room and
sought material with which to start
a fire in the gTate. Seeing the soiled
manuscript on the table, the servant
proceeded to start the fire with it and it was soon up the chimney in smoke.
"Carlyle attempted to rewrite the
manuscript, but gav up the task ia despair. But. one day, Carlyle saw a brick worker building up a chimney
'on the building across the street. He could not see how the man could worn at such a tiring- task and whistle as he did. An influence devedooed from the brick layer which instilled into Carlyle the ambition to go on and rewrite the French revolution, and he did. Live Worthy Life "So five that your ':fe will be worthy rT universal imitation." Dr. Rorer urged further. "Suppose that all men ore as you. what about the character of the world? Everything which w strive for in. this world is dropped a the grave exept character. When man dies, it is often asked, 'how much did he leave? The reply would be, 'All that he had.', imagine how terrible that is. that a man would leavall that he had. Head not even takn with him a character standing. "We reap as we have sown. Every
man will go to his own place. I hold i

GUARDIANSHIP CASE IS HANDED TO JURY
Hearing in the case wherein certain relatives are petitioning the court for guardianship for Mrs. Charlotte Clapp was given to the jury for its verdict in Wayne circuit court late Thursday afternoon. Mrs. Clapp took the witness stand in her own behalf early Thursday morning, and in a voice scarcely audible in the quiet court room tried to convince the jury that she does not need a guardian to manage her business affairs. Incidents which occurred during her period of indisposition, when she fractured her leg last March, were still clear in her mind. Questioned as to particular business
transactions to which she or her agents have been party, her memory failed to respond and she could give
no definite answers. She was asked
as to the amount of money which sh
now holds on deposit at two local banks, the amount of money which she had at the house during her period of illness and sunddry questions in regard to the way in which her farm near Fountain City is being managed To all of these questions she admitted that she did, not know. Mrs. Clapp testified that the tenant of her farm, a Mr. Sharp by name, was paying rental to her on the basis of a share of the crops produced.
When questioned as to how she knew
NEW YORK ACADEMY
GIVES ART GALLERY PAINTING BY RANGER
A new picture is soon to be hung in
the permanent collection of the Public
Art gallery, it became known Thursday. The Council of the National acad emy of Design at New .York City has presented a marine, "The High Seas" by Gordon Grant to the 'local gallery. The painting is purchased by the Henry Ward Ranger fund of the National academy. The local gallery receives a signal recognition in this .painting from the National academy. Henry Ward Ranger, who is numbered among the truly great painters America has produced, left a fund for the purchase of good paintings to be
given to art museums. He was inter
ested in having the pictures purchased for the benefit of the artist who had
made good and also in distributing pictures over the country. Most of the gifts under the fund, however, have
gone to the galleries of large cities. Shows Tossing Ships The painting given to the local gal
lery depicts an open sea upon which.
a sailing ship is fiercely tossed by
great swells. Ciroling sea gulls show dimly against the clouded expanse of
heaven above. The scene is gripping and powerfully executed. The artist,
Gordon Grant, has a studio in New
York in the winter, and paints in the
summer at Port Jeffetson, Long Isl
and. He was born in 1875 at San
Francisco, Calif., and is a pupil of
the Lambeth school of London. The picture is one of hi3 most recent ones
having been done this year. Some credit for the gift of this pic
rlire to the Richmond gallerv is due
Mrs. M. F. Johnston whose timely
suggestion during a recent visit in the east to mebmers of the council of the academy in New York resulted
in the gift. She also advised that a marine be given the gallery as there
are none in the permanent collection
Charles O. Curran, whose picture of
two boys building a dam is in the per
manent collection here is secretary of the council. Other artists on the
council with whom Mrs. Johnston is
personally acquainted used their in
fluence to get a picture for this citv.
A letter announcing the bestowal of the gift and a photograph of the picture have been received. Upon receipt of a formal acceptance by the Richmond Art association the picture will be sent here.
Edgerton Is Presented Watch, Traveling Bag i. O. Edgerton, retiring township trustee recently "was presented a
gold watch by the teachers, janitors
and hackdrivers of the schools of
Wayne township in appreciation for
his eight years of service. Mr. Edgerton expressed his appreciation to all those who had a parr, in presenting .the gift. The teachers of the township also presented Mr. Edgerton with a fine leather traveling bag. Mr.
Edgerton retires from the office of township trustee with" the ' close of the current month. " .
