Editor and Publisher Office Phone 4 — Home Phone 904 THURSDAY, APRIL 11, 1935 MAIN STREET . WHTTTLINGS Almost everyone, young and old, in this vicinity, knows that those two swans of Pell Clayton’s which sailed Syracuse lake last summer and far into the winter, are now nesting. Many people know where the nest is , and it is earnestly hoped by everyone that some one won’t stone the swans or in any way interfere with their home-making and hatching of eggs; that no one disturb the birds in any way or approach their nest. Two swans have been so much enjoyed on the lake, and young swans sailing about as friendly as parents will increase that enjoyment for everyone'. Learning where they were nesting and where they went regularly every day to some one’s back door asking for food, Pell Clayton gave this party a sack of food to feed the two swans. “Papa” sits on the nest while "Mama” goes out to dine. Those swans are causing some worry among their human friends who watch them. They just don’t care about motor boats, and when one passes their nest they start out in determined chase. The temperature is cool and it is feared eggs may not hatch out when left uncovered while Mama and Papa Swan try to serve as speed cops after motor boats. Mrs. Hoff, wife of Professor Hoff of North Manchester, who judged the oratorical contest Friday evening, attended the contest, and when questioned said that ' she was there primarily to see how her husband judged the contest. Mrs. Hoff had selected the winners of the declaratory and oratorical divisions without talking with him during the evening, and when the winners were announced as he had selected them, were the same. .On the others she refused to commit herself. Sentiment is growing, favoring a cloeed season on the hunting of bull frogs* People are beginnning to realise that frogs, and their song, will soon become extinct if they are not protected during the mating season. Conservation clubs are discussing having a law to this effect passed by the next legislature. Since that 4 billion 800 million bill has been passed for relief projects, and since the stream pollution bill was passed by the Indiana legislature, the Syracuse town board had better get a hustle on, to try to obtain funds to prevent any pollution here. Conservation Clubs, one after another, have come out against there moving of moss from lakes for sale. People earned their livings this way, but they abused the privilege and sentiment has turned against them. Too much mosa removed, and whole beds destroyed meant the destruction of minute animals which live on the moss and on which in turn, fish lived. If removing moss from lakes for sale is forbidden will people commence bootlegging moss? —o GOSHEN DEMANDS WIDER HIGHWAY. Goshen, Ind.-Mayor Clell E Firestone and O. B. Weaver, city engineer, went to Indianapolis to interview J. D. Adams, chairman of the state highway commission, on the paving of the full width of Main street. They came home with the assurance it would be granted. • The first plan of the state’s paving program called for a 40-foot strip of concrete down the center of the street. This „would leave a 12-foot strip of brick on each side of the concrete as the street is 64 feet wide. Q . Secretary of Agriculture Wallace to quoted as inferring that capitalism to about ended. But he doesn’t realize just yet how much the government actually can borrow.

LITERARY LORE { By Bessie Witherel Ballard Good Afternoon! “A House Divided,” by. Pearl S. Buck, which is the concluding book in the trilogy, called, “The House of Earth,” beginning with “The Good Earth,” followed by “Sons,” is a continuation of the saga of the Chinese farming people. The same picturesque, Bi bical, style used in the previous books, sets forth the story of the descendants of Wang Lung. A sort of “shirtsleeves to shirtsleeves” story written in the music of China. Different people, different customs, yet carry with them the same hopes, loves, tragedies, successes, and despairs, of “all God’s chilluns” It is well to read books of this kind; for, as has been said before in this column, the best history of a country is often found in the pages of its fiction. After reading the above trilogy, a craving for more stories about China is instilled in us, and, thereby, we gain a real insight into the history of this vast country, whose roots run far back into an antiquity, appalling in its hardships; but inspiring in its * steady march upwards to better things. Another book portraying the lives and customs of a great uuhtry, is “The Autobiography of John Hays Hammond.” The author is now past his eightieth birthday, and through the narration of his long, eventful, life, a stirring voice of the hopes, fears, triumphs, and defeats, of the American people seeps through its pages like the fragrance of a beautiful flower. Again, let me urge that you set aside “fifteen-minutes a day for worthwhile reading.” Learn to stimulate your imagination through

reading powerful stories. G. B. Shaw said in the course of his story of Joan of Arc, when the judge accused the Maid of Orleans of hearing angelic voices only through her imagination: “Os course; how else could one talk with angles?” This is one illustration of the effects of good Literature. In order to “talk with Angles,” or to comprehend the vast cicles in the history of Mankind, we have to draw heavily on our imagination; which, in turn, should be strengthened and stimulated. To do this, best results may be obtained through the reading of good books. It is said that Mary Baker Eddy, during the period of her twenty bed-ridden years, once said to a friend: “I have traveled all over the world, in my books.” An interesting book, written sev-
