ANNUAL EYE INSPECTION.

Il am sorry sir. we will have to ask
for your resignation. You see il is
this way; your optics are bad. You
see green for white. and white for red"
Similar to this will be the statements
made to several Grand Rapids and In
diana trainmen on the southern divis-
ion soon. if their eyesight is not just
right, These job-losing blows are al
ways administered on occasion Of the
annual eye sight inspection Of the
road. One optiCian from each OF three
cities, Richmond, Fort Wayne and
Grand Rapids, has been selected to
give the annual color test and eye es-
animation. Great care has to be ia
ken by railroad officials in employing
railway trainmen whose sight is of the
best and whose color discernment is
perfect, for if such is not the case, the
road stands good chances of being the
victim of many wrecks, all due to mis-
Interpretation of signals. Mistaken
idea as to color is frequently the cause
OF serious catastrophes. If precedents
are again followed this year, there will
undoubtedly be many railroaders on
the Grand Rapids and Indiana system
who will not pass the examination and
consequently will lose their positions

is not excelled by any Indiana artist.
and her feeling for color is pronounce
ed.
Miss Fox has, perhaps one Of the
most cOmmOdiOuS studios in the state
built by her father in the rear of
their home in West RichmOnd-a de
tached building with beamed roof,
parquetted floor, latticed windows and
great brick fireplace in one end. At
one time Miss Fox used this building
constantly, but recently she has ahan-
dOned it for her den in the larger
house. This has been brought about
chiefly through Miss FOx's devotion to
other activities within the last year
or so, she having taken the library
Indianapolis and prepared herself for
the duties of a librarian.
But, like those of poetic and artis-
tic temperament. she is mercuriai in
her devotion to the various phases of
art-at one time throwing down her
brushes for months to immerse her
self in the Joys of poetic composition,
or abandoning the latter for the field
Of design. For Miss Fox has DESIGNED
some Of the cloverest hook plates ev-
or made by an Indiana artist and.
while their number is few, they are
worthy the attention of every cOllec-
tor and lover of book plates
Pan and Psyche Rhymes is put
into readable form by Miss Fox on
heavy water color paper. deckle-edged
and lettered entire in her beautiful
engraver-iike hand, the end papers be-
ing eXquisitely tinted in water colors
in the effect known as "marbled :"
! The cover is of green oOze calf. but is
not limp, being stiffened to resemble
boards" as the hnnliable book cover
| is DESIGNATED. 1t is we'll sewed and,
! ALTOGETHER, is an admirable bit of
craftsmanship in itself. aside from its
artistic merits.
The title page. initial letters and
decorative effects throughout in color,
relieve the monotony of the black let
tering on the dead whiteness of the
paper and the placing of the rhymed
verses on the page shows great ap-
probation of balance and form.
The poems themselves point to po-
etc gifts of a high order-their deli
cate fancy, charm of figure and fell
icitous handling of the language be-
sDeaking the literary artist: while
their faint phiiosophic undertone give
evidence of the imaginative observer
Of nature and men.

Miss Esther Griffin White, writing
for the indianapolis Star says of a
well known Richmond young woman:
To make book all your own--its
handiwork, its contents, its cover
this is not vOuchSafed to many.
Some persons with the art instinct in
combination with mechanical ingeEui-
ty, have bound books written by other
persons and printed by still others.
Some there be who have bound
their own printed pages within dec
orative covers, but it is not often that
single person, within himself, or
herself, combines the ability and tai
ent to produce d tout ensemble. 1t
has, however, been reserved to Miss
Florence Fox of Richmond to do this
to make q book in its entirety.
Pan and Psyche Rhymes" Miss
Fox calls this little book, and it was
only after much persuasive effort that
she was induced to permit it to be
written of--for Miss Fox is as shy as
the wood things she writes about.

Hiah Game and Fools.

"Neyer eat game high" said an anti
quarry. people will tell you that high
game is tenderer. What rot. OF
course 1t is tenderer, but would you
want your steak or your chop spoiled
in order that it might be little softer
to the teeth? No, never! Highness in
game Is an anachronism, relic Of the
past, a relic Of the days of stage
coaches. In those days it was impos-
sible to deliver game to the cities fresh
transit was too slow. All game was
high, and men ate it high because 9th
erwise they couldn't eat it at ALT
hence to eat game high nowadays,
when there is no necessity for it, is to
be fool."-Cincinnati Enquirer.
