THE WAYS!BE CHATTER f . I ’ About four generations ago, oi i when General Taylor became t Piesident of the United States i the North and South were engag:.|ed in a great dispute in regard ? to the territory gained through - the Mexican War. Texas had r been admitted as a slave state s and the next congress was asked -'to decide whether California and New Mexico should be allowed to I hold slaves. '; The spread of slavery had now ' come to Ik* of great danger to i the country. It acted like a - wedge, forcing the two parties II further apart. In the one party, 1 labor was free, wbat a man camred was his own; in the other parity labor was not free, what a \nian earned went to his master. The one party, with, free labor, bad steadily increased in population ,and wealth, the other party, with slave labor, had made but little progress. The people of the one party considered slavery an evil, but the other party, under pCalhoun held it was a positive I good. The longer Congress deoated (about the new territory, the hotter it grew*. The one party claimed that every citizen had the light to go to any part of the country and" take his property with him, including his slaves. The other party said. “We will ‘have no more slave states, all territory ,must come in free.” * Abbut this time California .knocked for admissn n us a free i state. President Taylor, a large (slave holder, favored its admission. but Calhoun and his party j ; strongly opposed it. Ths bitter ; feeling became so great it seemh ny that the union must ,V< ‘' broken. Instead of . on? nation it would be two, a northern and a southern republic. About this time Henry Clay: came along in Congress with a comprom’se. He said, “Let Cal iforn'n in as a free state, in the : remainder of the territory the people decide how they want |tn come in All runaway slaves; found anvwhere shall be returned to their masters.’’ During the debase on the fugitive slave law President Tsvlor died and Vice dent Fillmore tonkins place. This law. with others, passed, 'and ’t was hoped neace was sn- :’•?<!. but it was like a smouhi-p-'ring fire, readv to- break out in- ; to a conflagration at any time. S' soon as the slave owners of the one party tried to get their ••’inawav slaves in the north there were riots. The northern states soon passed laws to protect the negroes and prevent (their being sent b?rk to slavery. Manv persons banded themselves h aether t? heln e«*».ned slave? into Canada. This method cot the name of the “Underwrc.nnd Railroad.” Hundred and tkoncjmds of fiuritives ow r ed their liberty to this system of travel. L. A. NEFF U—ENG AG EM ENT A.XN <H NCEB At a dinner party given at the Pine Tree Inn, near Goshen, on Tuesday evening. July 29, Miss Eva Rummel!, of Goshen, announced her engagement to Mr. Hobart J.

'COUNTY SCHOLARSHIPS I AT INDIANA UNIVERSITY r; —' a I Bloomington, Ind.—C oun t y * scholarships at Indiana universi-;-|ty are now being awarded by d county superintendents o I h schools to two high school gradd‘ uates from each county on a base|is cf scholarship. Each scholar--1 ship carries with it free contii> J’gent fees amounting to' appre.xDj imately sixty dollars for the com- ■ ing school year. Holders of scholt arships from Kosciusko county a’last year were Alton Bloom, of 1 Mentone, and Miss Elizabeth E. si Schade, of Warsaw. , j “The ti ustecs-ashall provide for -, the payment of all contingent - fees free of charge of two studi.ents from each county in this . I state, to be selected by the coun- . ty sunerintendent of schools upon a basis of scholarship attain- . ?d during the entire course of J high school training in the high ■ ■ schools of said county,” reads the > legislative enactment. “First preference shall be given to the student having the highest genial average over his or her enHtire high school course as given nn the high schorl? ot said coun'tv and all succeeding ;smll be given according to the t? nparative rank of such generlal average. Provided, however. ' that none of the previsions of ; this act shall apply to other than i academic students.” Nearly all counties were repre- ; -ted last year at the state uni-; versity by holders of scholarships 1 Every countj was represented ameng the student body but in ■some counties no scholarship ap-? poi fitments were made. The: inumber of scholarships granted] [was 132 put of a total of 1841 'scholarships open. I Holders of county scholarships i generally give a good account of | themselves in their university work, according to Dean David A. Rothrock, but in some ca?es last year they proved woefully weak. Statistics for the first semester show that one fresh <1 m | student attending the university on a county scholarship failed in everyone of hi- subiects. Ten out of the 132 failed in ten or more hours of work, while nineteen failed in two or more hours of work. Seventy-thre« nor cent ; the count'-J%dmlaij<hip apnointees passed in all their work during the first semester. Dean Rothrock has written a letter to «ll county superintendents urging that the awards be made strictly on a scholastic basis. FAMILY reunion On Sunday. July 27, the ninth rei nion of the family was celebrated at the home of Mr. and Mrs. N. G. Skidgel. in this city. The day was spent in enjoying a big dinner and visiting with those who came from out of town to be with the relatives assembled. 1 Those present were: Mr. and Mrs. B. M.

The week’s program is - built to meet the needs of all. - the time being divided between r rest and recreation, teaching and - preaching, prayer and religi ms -1 conferences. J The teachers and ministers on ■’ the program are all outstanding, f successful leaders in their re- ■ spective fields.

You are invited to take advantage of this week of very he’.piul • services. WHY THE DIFFERENCE? The daily piners in the neighborhood recently gave accounts of auto speeders' being arrested and fined. In several instances from three to ten arrests were chronicled, but no names were given. However, in one instance the name of a Syracuse youth was mentioned, but the names of the other defendants were not given. Here is the point: Why simile cut the Syracuse youth? If the other defendants were fron> Goshen cr Warsaw, why fiol Him* tion their names? Or the paper referred to could have given the names of the parties from Goshen or Warsaw, and omitted the name of the other defendant, who happened to reside in Syracuse. It seems, when a bunch of speeders are arrested, and one* happens to be from Syracuse, his name surely appears in the list, while the names of the ether offenders apparently appear at will. Why the difference, we ask again? .MRS. nTsTEI NMETZ DEAD A beautiful service was held in honor of Mrs. Steinmetz, formerly of Syracuse, in the Culp Funeral Home, Goshen, last Saturday afternoon. The service 1 was in charge of Rev. Cremean, the local pastor, who was assisted by Rev. Dillon of the Presbyterian Church of Goshen. The service was largely -attended and many were the floral offerings. Interment in the Goshen cemetery. It will be remembered that the husband. Nicholas A. Steinmetz died Feb. 10, 1920 while they were residents of Syracuse. Rev. Cremean officiated at the funeral of the husband. 1923 LICENSE PLATES If you want to have the old bus dolled up to match the new license plates next year you II have to tell the painter to do it in brown —or cream —or both For the 1935 license plates will be cream colored with brown letters. .

LOUISE HOMER, CONTRALTO I . ‘’ ** j-i Winona Assembly has enteric tamed many famous cut.sts in h the past thirty years. \..e ytaie. iy program aiuajs uxied with :i leatuics of the higfts,est order, it seems as taough L;t.us season will out do all preapious ones for already a numoer djoi world-famed artists have apsjpeaied before large audiences pad tne assembly now announces lithe coming of the world-famed ■, lee titi alto, Louise Homer, who -(will be heard at the William A. fi Sunday Tabernacle, Wednesday f I evening, August t>, at 8:15. - ■ rhe election of Louise Homer ?; as one oi. the twelve greatest 4American women living, by trie ?:National Association or Woman 1 Voters, last spring, marked a i Climax in the honors wnich the ’ Arielican public has heaped on this great American singer. Mme. tiomei was chosen for this dis- - languished group as the woman wno had done most for tjie ad- > vancement of music, and the selection was received with enthusiastic approbation. Louise Homer was born in Pittsburg, Pa., where her father • was pastor of a Presbyterian church. At the age of fifteen! ■ she began her vocal studies in I Philadelphia. A few years later she went to Boston, becoming a ! pupil of Sidney Homer, whom she later married. “Soon afterwards, she and her husband went to Paris where Mme. Homer continued her preparation for an operatic career. Her debut was made in 1898 at Vichy, France, before one of the most critical audiences of Europe, season she repeated her immense successes with the Chicago Civic Opera Association. She stands today as the highest American Art in music. Her concerts are always brilliant ones. Her ease of singing, her finish and the big floating tones make ( the evenings memorable as a rare vocal event. THE UHATLIXS QUESTION I Now that genuine summer x weather has arrued, hung v.n its hat and annourwsd its intention of staying a while, the question of coat versus shirtsleeves once rears its head. .he -women retain the prom, privilege of wearing the shirt waist übiquitously. For church or shepning or evening party the , shirtwaist is en regie for femininity and. apparently, always will he. The man who would venture to remote his coat in church would 1 be looked" upon ns mentally deficient', and fashionable hotel.' and restaurants will nut counten- ’ an'*© his presence. Regular pastors, sweltering iu their heavv black frocks, often envy the Rev. Billv Sunday, who J not only removes his coat in mix ed audiences, but also collar and dress shirt when talking to men ' onlv. But, then, he is an evangelist and is answerable to no one*. Court judges cling to precedent no less resolutely than the ‘ clergy. Some courts refuse per - mission to sweltering jurors tc remove their coats while others c encourage it. With the exception of church and court room, there are few nlaces where man could not wear . his shirtwaist, sans coat, if he really wished to do so, but it is- ' man himself, who is responsible fcr the popular attitude toward x his mode of apparel. If the shirtwaist man were numerous enough, he would meet with no < opposition. The women are not"; ” greatly concerned over his fashions, so it is a question for man ' himself to settle.* 5 Humiliating as may be the confession, man is the prize sartorial coward. > Woman has nerve enough to radopt the most outlandish and ’ hideous fashions which human ingenuity can conceive, but the 1 lords of creation don’t dare to take up a new style that’s sen--1 sible. It is man’s own fault that he 1 is conventional rather than com- , sortable. ——o— SERMON BY REV. KECK The Rev. A. H.

W THINGS TO ‘ TOK ABOUT Review of Things by the Editoc As He Sees The.m on the Surface. Moving- Ry Air One of these days when people move from town to town, their furniture will be transported in airplanes. So predicts C. W. Warner, - of Boston, who is said to be the pioneer in cross-country motor truck transportation of household effects. “I am speaking carefully when I say the airplane will some day te.ke over the distant transportation of home furnishings,” Warner declares. “There is a limit to the capacity and speed of the' motor truck. As people move faster, their belongings must move faster in their wake. In years tc come, d man will give his new address to the movers. Within 24 hours he should be able ,to walk in the new front door with his wife and children, and find everything as he left it yesterday 3000 miles away.” Doubt it? Well, it doesn’t seem as improbable as present speed of moving from city to city, bv trains and motor trucks, would have seemed to the former generations that moved slowly across the continent in covered wagons drawn by cxen.or horses. It’s unquestionably within human power to keep on developing the airplane until furniture ould be moved through the air for hundreds of miles without gtoat exnense. , • But will it be worth while? Are we reallv any better off. by re°scn of all this speed and socalled efficiency? Wasn’t life wee worth living, back in the Covered .Wagon days? Weren’t neople hamper? And didn’t they s nve more\ime and opportunity Jor the im\royoment .cf self - rich, after all, apparently is the chief purpose for which we i re put on earth? The late Marie Corelli bn being vked why she never married, s ’d: “There is no need, for I 1 ave thrice pets at home which im wer the same purpose as a husband—a deg which growls ?very morning, a parrot which mvears all the afternoon, and a ?°t which comes home late at ni ht.” Sentenced to read every newspaper in the city for six months, and rewrite the traffic accident stories in them in his own hand writing, was the punishment ->mted out to a Los Angeles ri’alif.) youth recently. This remedy should be tried on the sr.eeders in Syracuse. The chief of police at Rockford, 111., has ordered the bathing girl “stickers” on the windshields and backs of automobiles removed. He says they add to the menace of driving through Rockford’s congested streets. Let these who want to, do it. Brit careful observation has brought us to the conclusion that : t takes more than the removal f the major portion of a lady’s crowning glory to bring her back within hailing distance of youth. A man will put in the entire day hi nting a place where they ’re biting? but if he drops his collar button be will be a ravi,n’g madman if he hunts for it thirty seconds and fails to find it. Another gasoline war is on. In the east gasoline is selling for 12 rents per gallon. One oil coYnnanv in Burlington. lowa, sold it to’ 9 cents ner gallon from the wegon one day last week. If Cleo made Mark Anthony the Mark he was, and Caesar ’-'- do Brutus the Brute he was, then who made Lydia E. Pinkham the Pill she was? The farmer has a brighter dav be tore him as the corn and lyheat nrices are climbing. Whepev*»r toe farmer prospers, everybody else does. They used .to have the Police Gazette, in the barber shops of ycre, but since they’ve changed to bobber shops, we don’t see ’em no more. The only way for farmers to got oven with the irresnonsihle nienic parties is to start picnics in town themselves. Another definition of a pretzel: A cracker gone crazy.
