HALL OWEN DRAWINGS
DISPLAY MUCH TALENT

II N writing of the Halloween pictures,
both large and small, it is neceS-
\ sary to speak first of the very gem
eral high degree of workmanship dis
played In making them. Not boy or
girl but used more than ordinary skill
and thoughtfulness in both the design
ing and the drawing of the pictures
this week. 1t was a notable fact, TOO,
that very few pictures were sent In
upon improper paper, or drawn with
blue or faded ink.
OF course it was inevitable that many
of the pictures should have JacK-o
lanterns and witches upon broom
sticks These features are too closely
allied with the Halloween sentiment TO
permit of picture without one or potn
of them. While this entailed a certain
similarity in the pictures. there was
still variety enough in the construction
to redeem the drawings today from
monotony
OF the large pictures, two very ex-
cellent ones failed of reproduction. one
of these was by Hazel Cox, whose
smaller picture won the second prize
in the contest. The other was from

in construction, was received two DAYS
too late to be considered. The require
ments of the engraving department
make it necessary that the pictures be
in promptly on time or else the cuts
are not made and the Junior comes out
without pictures. Consequently even
when it appears as it did this time,
that the hardness was a result of some
unforeseen delay in the postal depart
ment it is impossible to take the late
pictures into consideration.
A smaller picture from Sidney Grant,

WHAT SHOULD A BOY
GO TO COLLEGE FOR?

What should a lad go to college for
for work, for the realization of
definite aim, for discipline and a severe
training of his faculties, or for relaxa-
ton, for the release and exercise of ms
social powers, for the broadening ef-
fects of life in sort of miniature
world in which study is only one among
many interests? That is not the only
alternative suggested by recent discus
sions. They also suggest sharp alter.
native with regard to the character OF
the study the college student should
undertake Should he seek at college
a general discipline of his faculties, a

general awakening to the issues and
interests of the modern world, or
should he, rather, seek specially and
definitely to prepare himself for the
work he expects to do after he leaves
college, for his support and advance
ment in the world? The two alterna-
tiyes are very different. The one asks
whether the lad does not get as good
a preparation for modern life by being
manager of a football team with
complicated program of intercollegiate
games and trips away from home as by
becoming proficient in mathematics or
in history and mastering the ABSTRACT
tasks of the mind; the other asks
whether he is not better prepared by
being given the special skill and train
ing of a particular calling or profess
sion, an immediate drill in the work he
Is to do after he graduates, than by
being made a master of his own mind
in the more general fields of knowledge

AUSTIN MILLER WILL
ESCAPE ALL TROUBLE
OFFICER HAD MADE REMARKS
CONCERNING MRS. MILLER.
This Was Direct Cause Of the Shoot
ina, as Reported in Press Dis
patches Wednesday.
From Fridays Daily Sun:

Considerable interest was manifest
ed In the announcement which ap-
peared In The Atlanta Journal OF
Wednesday concerning the shooting
by Austin Miller OF Alonzo Howe,
which occurred at Winona Lake. Ind.
The press dispatch only partially
covered the facts In the case.
Young Miller. who has only recent.
ly graduated from a university o.
law. was in the Indiana town taking
a special course, spending the tile
with his mother and sister. and II was
some careless remark made by the
officer about Mrs. Miller that led to
the shooting.
Mr.. Miller first met Howe and en-
deavored to use a whip upon him, but
this was out OF the question, owing
to the resistance OF the officer. and
he was compelled 70 use his pistol,
firing at Howe four times. all balls
taking effect. but none fatally.
Phillip Miller, father Of the young
man. was seen. and he having receiy-
ed a number Of kilograms regarding
the AFFAIR. readily gave the infOrma-
tiOn. which is practically as above.
The last message, which was from
Attorney NJ. c. Howell, read: Austin
not arrested, and will come out OF
the trouble. Man will get well. Was
shot for making remarks about his
mother"
Howe is one OF the police officers
of Winona Lake and should have bees
among the last to cast remarks, and
the lesson Of young Miller is com
mended by a large number here who
are glad that he will experience no
trouble in getting out Of the diffi.

NEW YORK, Aug. A little

a baby OF wOndrous eyes and shriveled

The little French mothers face was
Aglow with hope and love. Her
strength seemed almost superhuman

the street.
Her baby, aged four. had never
walked. Its face was beautifully dim

the white cap that covered It's head.
The mother crooned 60 the baby boy
