DEMOCRATIC DRUM
CORPS IN PARADE

The democrat drum corps, special

ance Monday night when il paraded
through the principal streets OF the
city. Under the tutorship of Frank
Yenn, the members of the organiza-
ton have perfected themselves in
the art of the kettles" and with ac-
companying bugles, the martial
strains sounded the unmistakable
call of victory next November. En-
nest Beebee, chairman of the local
democratic committee, was anchor
ed to the big drum TO which there
was no soft pedal attached. The
drummers marched we'll, kept per-
feet time and tune. and disported
themselves like democratic gentle
men. Considerably more will be
heard of the corps between now and
when the News-Times bulletins an
nounce each successive democratic

LINCOLN WAY TO
HAVE NEW LIGHTS
Project Being Agitated to In,
stall Modern Light
ing System.

Lincoln way between Smith st.
and Niles av.. will some day rival
New YOrk's great white way If the
project which many of the citys
progressive citizens that reside in
the section named are agitating can
be successfully carried through.
The old style arc lamps which
are in use are incompetent. for the
trees obstruct their rays and not
only is it dangerous for traffic but
does not give the main thoroughfare
its proper radiance that BELTS the
grandeur Of the street The system
that will eventually be installed is
the ornamental post lighting sys-
tenn. similar to the Edgewater drive
lights. These lights will be lower
and will throw an excellent ray up
on the street.
Except the initial cost Of installa-
ton which can be easily taken care
OF by the property owners on Lin
coin way and the city, and the cost
of the new lights will not be more
expensive than the present system.
Ii is probable that action will be
taken Immediately, for many Of the
citizens realize the Importance of
such steps, for it not only means the
Identification of the street. but an
increase Of the property value.

HUSBAND WANTS
BIGGER LUNCHES
0rvaI BiIIer Changes Ideas of
Eating After Trying Tan
lac, Wife Says.

Mrs. Orval Biller. a well known
AIishawaka woman who lives at 119
ID North Main street, gave state
ment on September 27 in behalf of
her husband. an employe OF the
Ideal laundry in South Bend. She
told Of relief her husband gained
through use OF Tanlac. the Master
Medicine now being introduced in
South Bend and Mishawaka.
My husband was very nervous
and he suffered from stomach, liver
and kidney trouble" Mrs. Biller
told the Tanlac man. His system
was in a general run down condition
He had no appetite and gas often
formed in his stomach. His appetite
was so poor that he often told me
il would not be necessary for me to
prepare a noon lunch for him. He
was forced to take laxatives nearly
all the time. He was also bothered
with a severe cough.
'Tanlac was recommended TO him
by relatives and he decided to try it..
His stomach is i'm much better con-
dition now. He tells me now that 1
do not prepare enough lunch for
him and he will have TO buy some
more food. Pains in the back do
not bother him now. The cough has
disappeared. He seems to be gain
ing in every way.
''Tanlac certainly brought my
husband great results and I'm only
too glad to recommend il for
others"
Tanlac, the Master Medicine, is
especially beneficial for stomach,
liver and kidney trouble, catarrhal
complaints rheumatism, nervous
ness, loss of appetite, and the like
and is fine strength builder and a
general system cleanser.
Tanlac is now being introduced
in Mishawaka at the Red Cross
Pharmacy where a special Tanlac
representative is explaining the new
medicine to the public.-Advt.

SPEAKS ON PIONEERS
Of ART IN INDIANA
Mrs. Rose Grimes Gives In
tereSting Address Before
Art Department of Club.
singularly apropos to the centen-

SingUlaTly aprOpos 20 the centen-
NAL celebration now in progress in
South Bend, was the highly interest
ing and instructive address on The
Pioneers OF Art in Indiana" given
by Mrs. Rose Grimes. before the
members Of the departTne nt Of art Of
the WOman's club in their rooms in
the library building. Monday after
noon. Mrs. Grimes handled her sub
ject in a manner TO convey her
thorough grasp Of detail and knowl-
edge Of the early school of art in the
state, and referred In particular TO
those pioneers. John w. Love. Jacob
Cox and John +. GOokins, whom she
described as the fathers Of Indiana
art. These men began with the will
derness and a land OF misty marshes,
peopled by the Red man, the woods
full Of beasts of prey, diseases be-
longing 10 new soil. privation and
unceasing toll, and difficulties of
which the present can never know.
Art Native to the Soil
Mrs. Grimes referred TO the art OF
100 years ago as being native 20 the
soil. and paid tribute TO the pioneer
women who carded and spun, dyed
and wOve, and whose art was pro-
nounced in their coverlets and
quilts. Reference was made by the
speaker TO the wandering portrait
painter who had painted prominent
people and whose work today was
among the very best ever produced.
In but few cases were the names of
the artists signed TO their work, which
habits The story of Christopher
Harrison, a hermit artist who laid
out the city Of Indianapolis and
planned the first state house after
the Parthenon, was Interestingly
told by Mrs. Grimes, whose touches
Of pathos put her audience thorough
~ en- rapport. Jacob Cox was refer
red TO as Indiana's pioneer artist,
"a man who was kind, gentle. and
of simple dignity-a man not easy
to forget" Mention was also made
Of his contemporaries, a short sketch
accompanying each reference.
Should Gather and Preserve Data.
Every line Of work has been taken
care of except two" said Mrs.
Grimes, and one is the men and
women who have devoted lifetime
TO the work which comes from the
pencil and brush and the makers of
music In some cases a history gives
one or two lines TO man who has
given a lifetime TO preserve TO pos
terity the form and features of the
builders of the state. The gathering
and preserving of data along these
lines seems to be a work whichd
should be taken up all over the state
by clubs devoted to the study of
these arts, so that the names Of pio-
neers be recorded with those who
have worked and been recognized
by the recorders of a mans work
and history in the state of Indiana"
Miss Vida Myers gave succinct
and interesting biography of the
Hoosier group of artists. viz: T. G.
Steele. r. b. Gruelle, John F. Bundy,
William Forsyth, Otto stark and j.
Otis Adams.
