GW|NN RESIGNS AS
ROUNDUP Secretary
George Hartman, Jr., Acts
Until New Man Is
Chosen
tend Fair Association Meeting to
Arrange Dates of Shows.

j. H. Gwinn is no longer the secre-
tary of the Pendleton Roundup and
the board of directors of the Round
up is looking for successor. Mean
while George Hartman, Jr., is serving
as secretary pro TEN and will have
charge of the office until a regular
man is chosen.
Gwinn's resignation came Saturday
evening and was couched in the fol-
lowing letter to the head of the board:
Los Angeles, Calf, Jan. 23.
T. D. Taylor,
President The Roundup.
Dear Friend:
Your night letter of several days
ago did not reach me until last
night owing to absence from the city.
wish at this time to renew my offer
to the Roundup board and wish to be
released from my position as secre-
tary and hereby tender to you and the
board of directors my resignation.
Very respectfully,
]. H. GwINN.
Following the receipt of the resig-
nation, meeting of the Roundup
board was held and the resignation
was accepted and Mr.. Hartman in
stalled temporarily in the place
1t appears that Gwinn construed he
had already rendered his resignation
to the board but the directors con-
sidered otherwise and it is understood
a formal resignation was asked for
because of his connection with the
"Rodeo," frontier show that is to be
given by Gwinn and others in Los
Angeles.
Who will be chosen to fill Gwinn's
position as secretary is yet undecided
and members of the board are now
looking the field over with the view to
securing the most acceptable man
possible for the post.
Setting Fair Dates.
A representative from the Round
up is to be sent to Walla Wall Febru-
ary 1 to attend the meeting of the
Northwest fair association which
sets the dates for all the northwest
fall exhibitions.

LOST LITERARY TREASURES

FROM time to time there is interesting
speculation as to whether the world Will
ever recover certain of the lost literary treas
urcs of antiquity. The favoritc reference is
to what treasure Of this character may be
unearthcd at Hcrculancum, when that i'm
mcnSc task is completed. As a matter OF
fact, the excavations at the site of the Italian
CITY have barely scratched the surface. and
many have thought that, inasmuch as the
people of Hcrculancum were of culture Su-
pcrior to those Of Pompcii, there must be
concealed in the ruins of the former city
many manuscripts OF fabulous value Also
it has been suggested that in the secret
archives OF ConStantlnOple, long closed
against the Christian world, there lie hidden
many antiquatcd literary treasures.
1t is of interest to recall some OF the great
est Of the worlds literary works that have
disappeared.
Sappho composed nine books OF poetry.
Only one ode and a few fragments remain.
OF the Scvcnty-five plays Of Eur1pidcs (or,
as Others have it, the nincty-onc plays, only
eighteen have survived.
Sophocles was the author Of one hundred
works. Only seven Of these are cXtant.
The same number is all that remains OF
the Sevcntv-twO tragedies OF -ESChyluS.
During the time Of Aristophanes some two
thousand dramas were composed. Only
fortv-thrcc Of these have come down to us.
As cvidcncing the wisdom and wit OF Me
nander we have only few fragments.
Today only thirty-five OF the one hundred
and fortv-two books of Livy survive.
We have only two Of the six hundred and
twenty volumes turned out by that genius
NarrO.
The greatest literary treasures the world
has lost were undoubtedly in the Alexan-
drian library. This wonderful collection
said to have embraced some four hundred
thousand (or, as other authorities estimate,
seven hundred thousand volumes, was lost
by fire. It's royal founder had collected from
ali their nations their choicest compositions.
There is q story that one Of his SUCCESSORS
actually refused to supply the Athcnans
with wheat until they had given him the
original manuscripts Of Eschylus, Sophoclcs,
and Euripidcs. The destruction Of the IL
brarv bv fire occurred during the siege LAID
to the city by Julius Caesar. Later, 1t Is
said. this collection was replaced by that pre-
scntcd to Cleopatra by Mark Antony. In
3gl. during the reign Of Thcodoslus, all
heather temples within the Roman Empire
were ordered destroyed; soft happened that

A GARY FAILING.

A Chicago company is to locate an
amusement park at Miller beach and
is to run daily excursions from the
big city to the beach, with Indiana
Harbor as a stopping point. No
sooner were its plans announced than
Ia horde of disgruntled spectators
backed up by a Gary newspaper be-
gan TO knock the enterprise. One of
the promoters was called a Rufus
Wallingford' despite the fact that
Ior contribute money. Efforts were
then made, but without success, TO
enlist the services of the Gary Com
mercial club in the campaign of
knocking. At the present time
Waukegan is working hard to get a
Coney Island amusement park located
on its beach and there isn't a city or
town along Lake Michigan that
wouldn't be glad to have a money
bringing amusement park on its
beach. Instead of seeking to drive
away an amusement park they would
be out to welcome it with bonuses
and every possible assistance.
So far the men who are backing
the amusement park scheme at Miller
have bothered nobody, they have not
palmed off any stock upon the ma
tives, and they have no subdivisions
| to boom. If their efforts to locate a
| big park and excursion point at Mil
Ter are successful it will be a fine
thing for the merchants of that town
and the rest of the county as well.
Should the plan be killed off through
the refusal of outside interests to
lsink money into the venture because
lof the hostile efforts of a certain
clique and through the dog-in-the-
Imanger attitude assumed toward
levery new project that it does not
have a hand in, it will be the coun-
lty's loss. In the meantime if tbs
park promoters mean business time
will tell and IL they do not one will
be the loser. Since they are trying
to do some thing of benefit it is moi
la pretty sound to hear the crash O
the knocks.
: Before Gary ever gets ahead II
lsome respects it will have to put tn,
quietus upon the knockers. And
while it has taken no action, tn,
lGary Commercial Club. which is en-
gagged in a praiseworthy scheme 0
having public park upon the LAX
front, ought to give its assistance t
the amusement park. for the tw,
would certainly be fine thing.
At the present time Gary through
its Commercial Club is making a pie
for outside capital to come in an
build homes and the way attempt
, are being made to discredit tn
efforts of those who are trying t
, bring the new amusement enterpris
to the city doors does not make a.
. edifying picture for moneyed men
who would invest capital here.

GET A CITY PLAN.

The need is felt every day for a
definite city plan which has received
the approval of the Hammond Cham
Der of Commerce and which will be
regarded as a guide for future city
development.
This plan will require several
years for it's working out but it will
do more towards making Hammoni
q city worth while than anything
that could be done.
In the working out of such plan
the manufacturing district could be

much judgement in such matters.
