DR.. STARBUCK RESIGNS
Is TO LEAVE EARLHAM
Head of The Department of Psychology
And One of States Leading Educat
ors Will Sever Connection with ouak-
er School.

DR.. Edwin D. Starbuck, professor Of
psychology at Earlham has rendered
his resignal&.l to the Board of Trus-
tees to take effect at the end of the
present term. DR.. Starbuck is one
Of the most popular professors in
Earlham, both at home and abroad,
and his absence will be keenly felt at
the college.
DR.. Starbuck has made a worldwide
name for himself by his mastery re-
search and broad knowledge on the
particular subject of Psychology of
Religion. 1t was a treatise on this
subject that turned the attention Of
the English Psychological society to-
ward him and he was Immediately
made member Of that body. There
are only three other college profe ssors
in the United States who have had
that honor bestowed upon them.
Mrs. Starbuck, who has had charge
of the musical department this year
will also leave. Mrs. Starbuck has
proven the most efficient of any of
the heads of the music department at
Earlham and it is largely through her
excellent knowledge of music and en-
thusiasm for the same that the depart
ment at Earham has gained its high
standard in the past year. She is &C
knowledged as being one of the finest

Open Fish Season.

The open season for fishing in the
inland lakes of Indiana begins May Is,
(today) and from this on til March 20
it is lawful to take fish from any of
these waters provided the fisherman
observes the restrictions that are laid
down in the statutes of the State. IN
der decisions o fthe Supreme Court of
Indiana game and fish are regarded as
the property of the public, and under
the control OF the state. Under the
police powers vested in the Legislature,
it may impose such restrictions and
conditions on the taking of game and
fish as it secs fit, or may prohibit the
taking entirely. Therefore, it is not
wise for any fisherman to think that
he can go ahead and violate any Of the
laws of the State and escape punish
ment.
There is no closed season in the
streams of the State, fishing with a
hook and inc being permitted at any
time Of the year, but in the waters of
the lakes such fishing may only be
done during the open season.

PAINFULLY HURT
BY FLYING SHAFT

CONSERVATION REIGNED
BROKEN LINE SHAFTINS AND
FLYING BELT CAUSE TROUBLE
IN CROWDED MACHINE ROOM
LOSS $500.

A broken line shafting, bent and fly
ing about a crowded machine room,
created CONSERVATION at the Rich
mond Manufacturing Company at
about II o'clock yesterday and for a
time it looked as if there would be
several persons badly injured besides
large property loss. AS it was, on
ly two were hurt and the loss can be
covered with $500.
When belt was being shifted to a
large pulley, the belt caught in the
pulley and commenced to wind up.
This jerked the shafting loose and at
the same time bent it. The heavy
steel flew around the room, knocking
over machines and tearing holes in
the wall until the engine was stopped.
ulic Stanton, machine shop fore
man, was knocked insensibe by the
flying shafting and fell directly under
stream of running water, where he
remained until almost drowned. An
other employee was cut over the eye,
but not seriously.
The greatest damage to the factory
will b ethe fact that the machine
room and foundry will have to be
closed down for two or three days,
possibly a week, before the broken
shafting and machines are repaired
