PLYMOUTH MAN STOOD FOR

MANY PROGRESSIVE MEAS-URES---GREAT FIGHT ON THE REFERENDUM BILL MADE GOOD LAWS Statement of the Work Done and the Things Accomplished By Senator Grube in State Assembly. Marshall county had two represenatives in the state legislature who became noted over the state for their independent and fearless fights for measures which they thought should become law. Most noted of these was Senator Grube's Referendum bill. Senator Grube introduced the following bills which were passed and signed by the Governor: Senate Bill 15 A bill for an act t protect corporations organized nude the laws of he Stae of Indiana, commonly known as Chautauqua associations, from fraudulent entry Upon or egress from the grounds of such ascc at on, -Thi3 1111 was introduced at the re quest of the Association at Winona Chautauqua Winona Lake.

Senate liill Jo A bill Icr an ac requiring railroal companies to ex amine employes who are engaged I the construction and building of rail road tracks, to pa-s flagging rules and providing penalties. The bill provides that at least tw men in each gang of section men mus be able to read and write English to pass the rules of flagging. It is law introduced for the purpose o protecting human life. Many wreck have been the result cf the eectio men being unable to understand j English and the rules of flagging. Ic is not a discrimination against foreig labor because it requires that but tw men in each gang shall posess the necessary qualifications. Senate Bill 348 X bill for an ae concerning public building eon tracts, and declaring an emergency. Sub contractors on public building arc not protected under the provision of the old law. No mechanic's lie can be filed on a public building or oa any public improvement. If th chief contractor is irresponsible th subcontractor has no cause. This bi" provides that the men or officers bav ing charge' of public improvement shall hold out of the pay to the chie contractor enough funds to settle wit subcontractors for such work or im provement. Senate Bill 349 A bill for an ac concerning the examination of tesche in the common schools of this stat and concerning the exemption of teachers from further examination, j At present only such teachers as ar I - licensed by the Co., Supt. are exemp from further examination. This la applies to all teachers 'of the state whether licensed by the county or b the state. It also includes all Fpccia branches whether in the grades or la high school. Any teacher in the state' - regardless of his department will be' exempt from examination provided h now has or may hereafter procure a thirtv-six month license. This bill was desired by the great majority ol the teachers of the state and was backed up by, the state board of education. The Referendum BilL Senator Grube also introduced Senate Bill 75 which provided for the referendum as applied to the granting of franchise in cities and towns. In short the bill provided that before any franchise could be granted by any city or town it should - first be submitted to the people of such city

or town for their approval at an elec tion held for. that purpose. It wa3 aimed by the author to provide a means of getting the control of this important matter in the hands of the people. Many franchises worth millions of dollars have been given away and the people have had nothing to siy regarding the matter. Senator Grube ccnte'd tat public franchise relcng to the people and when they are to be given away the people should be consul e l. This bill was the most 'stubomly fought measure of the session. The rr.ost powerful lobby in many vears was present to prevent its enactment. It was a bill to secire the rights of the people against the encroachment of corporate privilege. Battles of this character are not easily won and; .after the bill had passed both houses it was killed in conference commit' tee. Senator Grube fought this battle fefcrie Arraved acrainst hxnl were, the i public seme? corporations, coporat'ion attorneys, the so-called bi-parti san combine, and the concerted ef forts of all the men . and corpora v tions who feed and fatten by special Tl, 1,.. but won having passed both houses a most handsome majority.

ALKS ABOUT 0 MRS. LOUISE MYERS WOOD OF SOUTH BEND ADDRESSES SATURDAY CLUB AT HOME OF MRS. BLAIN ABOUT 100 PRESENT Greek, Shakespearean and Modern Plays Compared Present Day Dramas are Far Superior, Says the Speaker. About one hundred women gathered at the home of Mrs. Julia Blain Saturday afternoon to enjoy the Reciprocity Day lecture with the Saturday Club. Mrs. Louise Myers Wood, wife of the Superintendent of schools of South Bend, was the lecturer and her subject was "Modern Versus Shakespearean Drama." Mrs. Wood besides being the wife of a prominent educator is herself a scholarly and forceful woman. In appearance and in manner Mrs. Wood is simple and unassuming, but she cannot talk long without het audience recognizing that she is a re markable woman. In South Bend, Mishawaka and in LaPorte, where she has instructed women's classes in lit erature and art, she is greatly loved and it was a privilege for the ladies of Plymouth to have her with them. "Drama", said Mrs. Wood, "is the outgrowth of the natural tendency of the human race to imitate. In the early day when the world was young, when one savage would tell anothei what a third had done, he would in part act it out by gesture. In time he would not stick exactly to the truth but would draw upon his imagination, and so the drama( grew.'' Greek : drama was jto instruct; Shakespearean drama to amuse. Thus we find in it the serious parts relieved bv the comic. Modern drama is written for the student. It is not to amuse but to deal with a universal problem. It deals with soul action. It does not require much stage setting nor even much physicial acting for the play of emotions is within. The modern drama begins where the

i-5-5- - W .AI. A. .M.. W V 4Shakespearean left off. The Shaken sparean drama is exquisite blank verse The modern is ordinary prose yet on account of the sublimity of its. theme the modern drama is worth &j dozen Shakespearean dramas. The theme of all drama is the conflict of the human will. In the Greek drama the conflict .vas with the Fat?s with Destin-, with Zeus. In the Shakespearean drama the conflict was with the soul of the individual It was- some weakness of his own which caused the hero's downfall. In modern drama the conflict is between the individual and his environment. . Some of the great writers of modern drama are Bernard Shaw, Ibsen, and Maeterlinck. Some of the dramas Mrs. Wood recommended are,. "What Every Woman Knows,' "The Servant in the House," the "Blue -Bird" and "The Doll's House". To most people of Plymouth these names are but far away echoes of the good; things which are rejoicing the livingthrobbing world outside and the dearth of such good reading as these ( plays, shows us freshly the need of a, good public Library in Plymouth which .can supply to our citizens the -product of the best brains of the -modern day. At the close of her lecture proper, . Mrs. Wood read portions of "The Doll's House." The ladies listened" in rapt attention and at its close morethan one was compelled to wipe awaythe tears of emotion. Every woman -present felt that she had been treated to an intellectual feast and Mrs. Wood will be remembered long and kindly by the women of Plymouth. The reception committee served iced punch in the dining room afterthe lecture. W. C. T. U. Institute TheW. C. T. U. County Institut -will meet at the Methodist church -Plymouth, Thursday, March 16.
