to express their opinions in regard to
Sunsets question:
Should a lady that is educated marry
a gentleman that is less educated, or vice

My opinion is. that If every educated
person would marry their equal the I'M
educated would stand a poor chance in
ever advancing. For my part if 1 am
ever so fortunate or unfortunate as to
get married I want by all means to
marry some one who is better educated

il would seem right for all the highly
educated to marry their equal and leave
the uneducated classed off to themselves.
Seemingly the world would grow more
ignorant every day. Surprising an un-
educated lady and gentleman were to
marry: nine chances out of ten their
children would be brought up in ignor-
ance. True, they might go to school.

spoke of exercising their culinary knowl-

union and the fair and then take the
extra labor of cooking, however well
versed you are in that line of work. You

of criticism, especially in the plan of
labelling the exhibits of the art and the
horticulture departments. AS it is i'm
possible to fully enjoy those depart
ments without a guide, which costs

guide takes more time than most visit

points of good which will tell in future

appreciate our sisters across the waters

which will broaden till the waves are

THAT TICKET.
"GanO" Quotes the Constitution on
an Important Matter.

"Gano. Quotes the Constitution on
an Important Matter.
Howard Friends-I come at this
time to speak of a matter of vast i'm
portance to the club and that is the
ticket that has been prepared and sent
out, which is not in accord with the
constitution of this club (article 4, sec
ton 81, and notice of protest against
counting the same has been made to the
proper officers.
Just who is to blame for the blunder j
can't say, but some one has certainly
been very lax in their duty, else it would
not have occurred. The ticket as pre-
pared and sent out is a violation of the
constitution in two particulars. Article
A. section 6. of the constitution, i'm giving
the duties of the executive committee,
says: shall nominate candidates for
president, first and second vice-presi-
dents, recording and corresponding sec
retaries and treasurer" Now, is the
ticket as sent out in accord with the
above? | answer, No. 1t contains
neither first vice-president nor recording
secretary. Said section futher says
Such nominations shall be made
from those preferred by the different
members of the society" Now l would
respectfully ask the committee when and
how they got their preferences from
which to select a ticket2 Did they ask
for preferences on the Howard page of
The Sentinel, which would have been
the proper way; thus giving all chance
to say who they would like to have?
| answer, no; as no such notice appeared
on the page. The committee simply took
the responsibility themselves to make
up a ticket, and you see the result-a
direct violation Of the constitution.
l have no fault to find with the names
that do appear on the ticket, a 1
marked mine and returned it to the
secretary, but it is to the manner in
which it was got up and to it's being
incomplete that l find fault. 1t looks too
much like one man power-l am COM
petent to do this without your advice.
According to the constitution, which
is our club law. / do don't see how the
ticket can be counted, and one of the
main features of our reunion, the cleo
tion of officers, be delayed till is con-
formity with the club laws can be pre-
pared and sent out. and special meet
ing for their counting called. As ! said
before notice has been given the officers
that the counting of the tickets will be
protested, so | call upon all fair minded
members to stand by me i'm this mat
ter and see that your rights are respect
ed. Let US go to the reunion at Michi-
gan City fully determined that justice
to one and all must be dcne. Fright
is mighty and will prevail GANO.

''HyncintH'' Talks About Ii from An
other Point of View.

Howard Friends-It has been
some time since I wrote a letter to orr
club. Sunset" has given us a subject
for discussion that is not new-"should
an Educated Lady Marry an I'm
educated Man. or Vice Versa?''
There has been some discussion. but
all on one side. In my opinion. it de-
ponds much more upon the cause than
the mere want of education. Whether
from mental inability to acquire it or
from a lack Of opportunity. ''Wyandot
Dewdrop." do you not think that the
young lady you spoke of might have
been happy had he been below her only
in education? If you lived in the coun-
try you might think differently Nearly
all the farmers daughters are graduates
from some high school or college, while
the sons must be content with three or
four months at the district school every
winter until they can read, write and
cipher. The result is, we see welI-edu-

said he would go West and try to build
up a business Of some kind: would stay
five years, hold communication with her
during that time on condition that at
the end of the five years, If she still
wished il. there should be no further on
position to the marriage To this the
father consented. He went West, she to
boarding school for two years then to one
of the best colleges in Ohio. At twenty
she returned to her Illinois home a re-
fined. well-educated woman. The next
year was devoted to housekeeping, she
soon learning To serve up a good dinner.
John liked good dinners, she remembered.
I'm lust five years he returned, and after
an interview with her demanded his

and she went with him 10 his far-away

years with his uncle. He died and left

THE REUNION.
Arrangements Made nf Michigan City
-SugEestiOnS. Etc.

To the Howard Club-There has much
been said in relation to our club reunion.
but no definite particulars published.
We have decided to cut down our re-
union from a week to three days. on
account of the members desiring to visit
the worlds fair and return home within
a week. Our reunion will be from Aug.
16 to IS inclusive. We can dispose of
our business matters at morning or aft
ernoon sessions and our literary work at
night We can then go to the fair in
a body and enjoy seeing the sights to-
gether We have completed arrange
nents with the management of
the Henderson house for rates
of s125 per day. This is a 81 per day
house. Free bus at all trains and
centrally located. We can not, as some
have suggested. see the fair and have
our headquarters at Michigan City, be-
cause of the waste of time i'm going to
and fro. The better plan, in my opinion,
is to hold our exercises and then attend
the fair. Every member who intends
visiting the fair can attend our reunion
with very small additional cost TO all
such 1 would say. purchase your ticket
for Chicago and you can then get rates
cheap
If you are east of Chicago you can
stop Off and II west of Chicago it costs
but 81 for the round trip from Chicago to
Michigan City by steamer. Thus a per-
son can attend the fair and the reunion
