Talks With
Lovers
Rejected, Accepted, Welded"

This might be the title of new
best seller if the story were not so
common. How often has a woman
rejected lover only to find later that
she was mistaken when he returns
again, through some trick of fortune
How eagerly she accepts him the next
time and how little time they waste
in getting to the altar.
Such action is not inconsistent and
need not mean that the woman is
tickle or inconstant Persons who try
to make the most of life are constant
ly developing. Their ideals are chang
ing. They may find that one person
of whom they are fond is content to
become mentally and socially stag.
nant while another continues to grow
and endeavor to be of service to So
ciety in the broadest sense. Failure of
two persons to grow together mental
ly is in many cases the cause of
heartache and unhappiness.

There is no disposition to deny Mr.. Melpolder
the same right of any other man, that of resent
ing personal attack or abuse, but in selecting the
council chamber as the place of replying to Mr..
Whites criticism was as i'll advised Mr..
Whites uncalled for provocation.

History

Days of Richmond Will

CLASSES OF PIONEERS.


There We're three classes of pio-
trappers. They had neither families
nor homes They lived in temporary
camps wherever there was plenty of
game. Next came the "squatters" who
were the hunters and trappers with
their families. They sought out suita-
BILE places beside springs of cool water
and there built temporary cabins. The
wives and children planted garden
truck and corn in the clearings. If ev-
erything remained pleasant they would
buy the land and become permanent
settlers; but most probably after two
or three years, when game began to
get scarce and wild, they gathered up
their few belongings and moved out
on the frontier again. History has no
permanent record of these advance
guards. For this reason almost every
community in Indiana has never
ending dispute as to when it was first
settled and who its first settlers were.
Tradition correctly points to the hunt
er and squatter. Finally the records
at the courthouse name the third
class, the men who bought land and
made homes, the permanent settlers.
The period from 1916 to 1886 has
been taken as the pioneer time of In
diana. 1t was a period of preparation.
Everything was temporary-tempor.
ary cabins, temporary barns, if any at
all, temporary fences, fields full of
stumps and dead trees, temporary
churches, temporary schools, temper
ary roads, temporary government,
temporary preachers, teachers, law.
yers, and physicians. There was not
time, until they got settled in their
new homes, to go at anything sys-
tematically. The wild, free, open air
life of the pioneer has it's, attractive.
