Dr. Edward Ryan Of the American
Red Cross has returned to America,
after spending more than two years
aiding the medical relief work in the
war zone in Serbia, to report at the
American Red Cross headquarters. The
doctor a clean cut American, bears
more the appearance of youthful
traveller than one who has been presid-
ing over one Of the largest hospitals i'll
the seat of war.
Dr. Ryan, who is a native OF SCran
ton. Pa, has been supervising the work
of the base hospital between Austria
and Serbia, which has twice been occu-
pied by the Austrians. One of the
most successful accomplishments in
the medical line. he said, has been the
effacement of the typhus germ.
During the first occupation Of the
city of Belgrade by the Austrians Dr.
Ryan declared himself GEAR of the
city and held that position for three
days, during which time he successful
~ organized police system.
DR.. Ryan has also spent much time
in Mexico and was sentenced to death
as a spy at the time United States
troops seized Vera Cruz.

Capitalists of Indiana.

On Dec II, 1916, Indiana was ad-
mitted into the union as the nineteenth
state, being the sixth new state added
to the original thirteen. Vincennes,
in southwestern Indiana. had been the
first capital Of the territory, but in
1913 the seat of the government was
transferred to Cory6on, and It was in
that place still a mere village, that the
machinery of statehood was set in
motion. In 1920 a committee was APP
pointed to select site for permanent
capitol. The members Of this body
met at the house Of William Conner
on the west fork OF the White river
and the site chosen was accepted and
confirmed by the Legislature, and the
capital named indianapolis.
Indiana was originally part Of New
France and constituted an outlying
part Of that newsworld empire which
had its seat Of government in Quebec
The French Canadians We're its first
settlers. Early in the eighteenth cen
fury they descended the Wabash and
estimated several posts on its banks
including Eincennes.

War Department Grabs $4,000 From,
Men of Third Re9iment-Many Left
Without Funds With Which to Pur-

Des Moines Feb. 2a.--About $4,000
was deducted from the pay Of the en-
listed men of the Third Iowa infantry
upon muster out Of the federal service
at Fort Des MONIES on Tuesday, ac-
cording TO an estimate made yesterday
by Col. f. r. Bennett.
The men left Des Moines feeling Bit
ter against the war department for the
treatment they had received in being
required to pay for clothing twice and
then turn il back to the government,
Colonel Bennett said. However. he de-
ella res that in spite of the unfair treat
ment, he believes a good percentage OF
the men will remain in the guard and
the Third Iowa will not be disorganized
by this occurrence.
Money May Be Refunded.
The men will eventually receive the
sums which were held out of their
pay said Colonel Bennett. Il believe
that the matter will be Strengthened
out later.
But the point is that the men need
that money now. After while they will
be In good shape financially thru their

AN oLD-FAsHIoNED WOMAN.

No clever, brilliant thinker she,
With college record and degree;
She has not knows the paths of fame,
The word has never heard the name;
She walks on old, long trodden
ways
The valleys of the yesterday.
Home is her kingdom, love is her
dover;
She seeks no other wand of power
To make home sweet, bring heaven
near,
To win smile and wipe tear
And do her duty, day by day
In her own quiet place and way.
Around her childish hearts are twincd
shrined.
And following hers the childish feet
Are led to ideas true and sweet
And find all purity and good
In her divinest motherhood.
She keeps her faith unshattered still;
God rules the world in good and i'll,
Men in her creed are brave and true
And women pure as pearls of dew,
And life for her is high and grand
By work and glad endeavor spanned.
This sad old earth's a brighter place
All for the sunshine of her face;
Her very smile a blessing throws,
And hearts are happier where she
goes,
A gentle, clear-eyed messenger,
To whisper love-thank God for heri
