BUILDING IOTA

L PLEA Chicago Sculptor Gives Views on Coliseum Before Meeting of Rotarians. "A utilitarian building can not be a memorial. If you want to remember your soldier, build a monument, not u coliseum." This Is the. plea of Pomplo Copinn!, Chicago sculptor, who addressed the Rotary club at Its regular meeting Wednesday noon. Mr. CopPlni is In South Ilend to attend the monument dealers' convention which opens Thursday morning. "A co'teeurn, such as has been .ugr'.sted for this city, cannot be a proper memorial to the soldiers who have Kone from here," reiterated the sculptor. "Think of what it will be in future years. Perhaps, some day, in the very building which is .supposed to b in memory of those who fought to over-throw the German machine, the mother or wife ot a soldier who died will rub elbows with the very man who fought for '.errnany. If a monument Is built, s-uch a thing cannot happen." V. Ii. Swintz, chairman of the metlntf. declared hlm.self in favor of the Idea prevented by the sculptor. "I h;ivcn't been much in favor of a coliseum," he said. "If we want to have a memorial, let's have a memorial."

ARMY AND NAVY UNION MUSTERS IN EIGHT MEN The new officers of George M. Poinsett jrarrison. No. 9 3, Army and Navy union, were confronted on their first night in their stations with a large and enthusiastic rally of the old membership, and the problem of mustering in a class of eight recruits, tho majority of whom were from service in the world war. They took care of the situation in a creditable manner for beginners though for a while it was doubtful just who was being "initiated," the oiheers or the recruits. Many of the men returning from the world war service regard this as their logical organization as veterans, and inquiries are turning to applications for membership, two of which besides the men mustered were received. After muster some interesting talks were given by various old and new members. The committee in charge of the fourth annual military garrison ball, consisting of Charles Noble, George W. Doty and August Vlerick, was retained and five assistants added. This ball Is the traditional feature of the garrison social life. It .was suspended last year owing to the absence of so many comrades, but now the boys Intend to make up for lost time by a specially ambitious effort. The two last balls held were principally directed by Sergt. (Capt.) George A. Campbell, who was killed in action in France Oct. 7, 1918, who before leaving was garrison commander. Future musters will open at 3 p. rrv. Instead of 8:15 as formerly.

One Sure Sign of Spring Fails

Did you notice that spring-like weather of Sunday and Monday? Well, It wasn't spring at all. In the spring a young man's fancy (and a young woman's, too) lightly turns, you know, and a;i proof of the fact that spring hasn't come, listen to this: All day Tuesday County Clerk Wilbur Warner sat in his office, looking In vain for mcone to take out a marriage license. "Where are they?" he wailed. "Where are those foolish young men who would trade three perfectly good American dollars for a piece cf paper and a life sentence?" But no one came. For the first time in years a day passed without a sign of a loving couple at the license window. Tuesday, Jan. 21 remember It. Meanwhile, Cupid was receiving a severe setback in quarters where he thought himself securely intrenched. Four divorces more than the usual number were filed In St. Joseph county on the same day that no marriage licenses were Issued. Guess the marriagable ones were looking at the calendar, not at the weather. And with atl those soldiers home, too! MORTAR BATTERY AT CAMP TAYLOR (CONTINUED FROM PAGE ONE.) land, suffering from Influenza. "When they , went to France but later rejoined the command at Vitrey Vernois. The troops have not seen anything of other units of the division since their departure from the United States.

The boys are wearing the bomb insignia of the trench mortar battery on the coat sleeves. REPUBLICANS PLANNING SHOWDOWN IN FIGHT AGAINST RULE OF FEW By Fnited Press: WASHINGTON'. Jan. 22. Republican leaders have decided there must be a showdown on the progressives' fight against concentration of power in the hands of a few senators. Senate republicans caucused today on Sen.

If this rule is adopted by the senate Penrose, Lodge, Smoot and Warren, scheduled to be chairmen at the next session of the finance, foreign relations. appropriations and military affairs committees, cannot be members of uny other of those committees. The house republican caucus last night on the big navy program reached no agreement. DESPERADOES ESCAPE ROCK ISLAND JAIL USING WOODEN KEY By United Press CHICAGO, Jan. 22- Armed with rifles end ready to shoot to kill, Chicago police today guarded elvery highway and railroad leading into Chicago In an effort to capture some of the 25 prisoners who .escaped last night from the Rock Island, 111., Jail. Most of the prisoners were known as desperate characters, many of them being paroled convicts from Joliet and other state prisons sent to Rock Island to work in munitions plants. It is known some aie armed. The escape, said to have been one of the most daring on record, was made last, night, by the aid of a wooden key whittled out by one of the men. THEATER TAX TO STAY AT TEN PERCENT By United Press: WASHINGTON. Jan. 22. Theater managers and patrons today won their fight against the 20 percent tax on amusements in the new tax bill. Conferees rescinded their adoption of the senate 20 percent rate and went back to the house rate of 10 percent. This action was taken following a storm of protest from all over the country. Theater managers warned the conferees that imposition of the 20 percent tax was likely to be strongly relented by the theater-going public and would result perhaps in a diminution Instead of an increase in revenue. MAY ACT SOON TO END WIRE CONTROL By United Pres: WASHINGTON. Jan. 22. A resolution for immediate repeal of government wire control may be brought into the house in the next few days.

P CES MARKET OPENS U. S. Steel and Copper Issues Show Increases in Early Trading in Exchange. NEW YORK, Jan. 22. A sliKhtly better undertone prevailed in the stock market at the opening, prices for the most Issues being fractionally higher. Rail shares appeared to be in better demand, but instead of holding the rally the market developed into a broad trading affair, stocks moving in an erratic manner most of the day. Studebaker was very active and made a new low of 4 5a4 on this move, but buying orders appeared, causing a temporary rally. Advices from Pittsburg state that the situation in scrap, iron and steel In that district is badly demoralized and the market is now off $10 a ton from the last government minimum quotations. Iesplte news of this character the steel stocks are slightly hifther, due In part to short covering operations. Very little news of an important nature is obtainable at this time and the market operations are based on personal Mews of those who are Interested. At this time of widespread unrest in labor circles and.the readjustment that is going on in business circles we do not see any reason to believe In anything but a trading market, cut we do believe that good dividend paying stocks should be purchased on the weak spots, which occur from time to time. By United Press: NEW YORK. Jan. 22. Prices were fractionally higher at the opening of the stock market today.

That the men of this country will soon have to wear baggy trousers, or "umbrella, pants." was the intimation todiy of tailors attending the 23rd annual convention of the National Association of Clothiers. This abrogation of personal liberty is expected because of the vast amount of clothing left on the clothiers' hands by the war's sudden ending. The clothiers advocated the double breasted coat and the Prince Albert J9 means of using up surplus cloth. According to the tailors' views the time Is coming when a tailor won't make a suit of clothes for a man without a paunch. A thin man does not need enough cloth to make it worth while.
