Hammerstein in Harold and short
time later Harold left for New York,
where he signed contract with Ham
merstein. After studying abroad he
returned to New York and made his
debut in grand opera. He was con-
sidered a find" in the musical world.
1t was after going to New York that
a difference began to grow between
Harold and his first wife, Effie Har.
rold. This widened until Feb. II,
1913, when Mrs. Harold filed suit in
the local courts for divorce. she
charged her husband with cruel and
inhuman treatment, alleging that he
neglected her and their children, and
that his love for her had died out be-
cause of the difference in their re-
spective stations in life. She said they
separated in September, 1912. In the
divorce trial she produced letters in
which Harold stated that he did not
love her any more and that he wanted
to get rid of her. Harold admitted
his wife's allegations and told the
court there was no chance for recon
Citation.
The question of alimony was decided
out of court. The custody Of the old
est daughter. Abilene, then 10, was
given to Harold, and the other two
children. Marjorie, then II, and Paul,
9, were awarded to Mrs. Harold. Mr.,
Harold has returned to Muncie each
summer to visit with his parents and
children, but never would see his for

makes her home here.

and women are conserving the food supply; busi-
ness men are accepting the handicaps attending
state of war with composure; housewives are
economizing in the use Of food; the whole nation
seems to understand the gravity of the situation
and the service which it implies.
It is especially pleasing to note how the wom-
en- are contributing to the comfort OF the boys in
the trenches and with the fleet, Hundreds OF ar
ticles of comfort not included in the military kit
are being prepared here for the fighters
When matrons and young girls resolutely ad-
dress themselves to the task of learning to knit,
spending hours in acquiring the requisite knowl-
edge, and then devoting whole hours to the pro-
duction of the article it speaks high for the pa
triotism of the American women.
Seemingly no phase Of war preparedness has
such universal appeal among the women as that
of knitting socks and other apparel for the sol
diers and sailors. Wherever one goes in Rich
mond he sees women plying the knitting needles,
busily shaping articles while they are talking or
enjoying visit.
Back of every effort of this kind is the influ-
ence of soul that seeks to alleviate suffering or
to contribute to the comfort of fellow citizen. 1t
is a spirit that is well worth cultivating.

SURPRISE TO HOME TOWN

MUNCIE, Ind, July 9.-The filing
Of the suit for divorce by Orville Har-
rold, noted opera singer, was the
cause of much surprise and comment
in his home town here today. Muncie
people were under the impression that
the singer and his second wife were
getting along nicely and nothing re-
garding a break in the family was
intimated by Mr.. Harold when he
was here few weeks ago to visit with
his parents and children.
The rise Of Harold as grand opera
singer was rapid. In the days that he
clerked in grocery store here and
later drove wagon for the Muncie
Casket Company he was induced by
members of the Jackson Street Chris
tian Church to sing in the church
choir. DR.. J. M. Quick, member OF
the choir, was quick to realize the
beauty Of Mr. Harrold's voice and he
made arrangements for Harold to
take vocal lessons.

Large crops depend primarily on good seed.

Rambling Heard in Saxony

Democracy is making things uncomfortable
for the bureaucracy of Saxony. Press dispatch
es late last week told Of the demands that were
being made in that kingdom for more liberal
participation of the people in their government.
A speaker boldly told the diet that the sold
iers of Saxony are not fighting because they love
their king, but because they love their father
land. Or in other words, they are tired of royal
misrule and autocracy and want direct partici-
patton in shaping governmental affairs.
German leaders can no longer blink the truth
that the people have not suffered heroically for
three years without wondering why they are
forced to pay price that gives them so little in
return for the blood of their soldiers and the suf
fering of their civilians
Democracy is slowly percolating through Ger
many presaging day not far distant when the
people of all Europe will have the rights so long
enjoyed by the American people. The rumbling
in Saxony is as logical it is the natural result
of conditions that are irksome and unsatisfac-
tory

German morale continues to be dis
covered in captured trenches and raid

found recently which had been writ
ten to q Bavarian at the front three
weeks ago. The letter said in part:
zone can well understand that you
are sick of this horrible business. I
believe that the climax has been
reached for now one hears nothing
but complaints. The German Social
Democrats have announced that If a

The German Spy System
BY THOMAS L. MASON
Editor OF life"

Revelations of the operations Of German spies
in the United States in the last few days came as
distinct surprise to the American people not be-
cause they were ignorant of the work of the
Kaiser's agents, but because the ramificatons
and intricacies of the system were holder than
most of us dreamed they could be.
Berlin had information about troop move
ments and departures of vessels that were more
accurate and complete than many American Off
GERS possessed. Traitors and spies have pene-
trated into places which most of us believed were
inaccessible.
The United States in the very light of last
weeks reports, will be forced to adopt drastic
measures to curb the evil The American people
are squarely behind Washington in its efforts to
ferret out the leak and punish the evil doors. We
have too much at stake to permit the presence Of
a system that 'menaces the very heart of our
nation.
No reflection can be cast on the integrity of
our high officials. Their loyalty is unquestioned.
If England after three years of warfare, is still
bothered with the spy pest, the disclosures in
the United States cannot and must not be inter-
preted as an indication of negligence or sloth on
the part of our officials.
The menace is a real and dangerous one. To
combat it every citizen must be on the alert, and
must report to the authorities every indication
of espionage that comes to his notice.

For instance, a good sized chicken costs all the way from $3.5O to $5; goose from $13 to $22; choice potroast of beef, $1.50 to $2 a pound; eggs are worth from $5 to $S dozen; potatoes are plentiful as ev- cry available inch of ground is used for them.

How to Learn to Write.

Putting words together is not writ ing: making fine sentences is not writ ing: elaborating striking plots is not writing. Of all the arts literature Is the most exacting mistress. To write you must have lived. you must have suffered and know joy. you must be able to analyze people, to understand their motives, to love them.
 Granted that you have learned some thing of the motives, the passions, the sorrows that rack us humans, then you must also have your medium in con- trol. Words are like little creatures that march and fight and sing. They are like extra bands and brains. All the passions wait on them. Until you get this sense of the choiceness. the fragility, the power of words, you are not ready to transcribe your thoughts American Magazine.

PACIFIC NORTHWEST IS
 DRUNK WITH PROSPERITY

The Pacific northwest mining dis tricts are drunk with prosperity, says the Spokane Chronicle. Dividends paid during 1916 by the mines of the Couer d'Alenes, Washington, and of southeastern British Columbia total s13.749,S61. gain of S3,500,000 over the dividend record of 1915.
 The rise in the price of zirc aLd lead is responsible for the prosper ity. The Interstate-Calla d zinc producer, netted its stockholders s2,7S9,000 during the year Three years ago it was heavily in debt and was not paying running expenses. The Hercules mine, one of the largest lead producers of the world. yielded SJ.- 100000 to it's owners in 1916. The mines of these districts have paid a total of s7S.339,355 in their history in the form of dividends.
 The prosperity of the mining dis trict is reflected in the activity cr the Spokane stock market. During No vember the Spokane Stock Exchange handled s554, ,646S1 worth of busi- ress, representing the transfer of B. 47S,360 shares of stock.

The Doctors Prescription.

Of historical interest is the emblem found on every prescription written by physician. consisting of the letter R with thin line across the tail at an acute angle. According to historians, 1t had its origin in the ancient custom of allowing the stars to dominate every day incidents of life. The R thus mark ed is said to have been the emblem used by the ancients to designate the su premacy of Jupiter. Therefore 1t seems probable that some chemist of ancient days gave a prescription or recipe to some patient and wrote upon it the en-
 blem of the planet then in the ascend ancy, which happened to be Jupiter This emblem has come down to the present time and is always used. In a more modern sense it stands for a recipe. or an order or instruction to take something. Literally construed. recipe means take" or take thou"

DANCING IN R0UMANlA.
psasants Make Merry on Sunday to of
 Their Joints For Monday.

The Roumanian peasants have a say ing that they must dance on Sunday to keep the creak out of their bones on Monday. Most of the dances are at the public houses-dance halls under the blue sky, as 1t were-and young and old gather there. The old folk spend the day with the tipple, while the young ones dance. There is very little drinking on any other day of the week, and a tipsy man except on Sun- day is seldom seen.
 The dances are organized by the boys of the community. They arrange for the music, provide the refreshments and preside as masters of ceremony. When the girls reach a marriageable age and have been sufficiently instruct ed in the household arts they are al lowed to attend these dances as partic- ipants. "She dances at the dance" is the peasant way of saying that girl has made her debut and Is eligible for matrimonial attentions.
 The national dance of Roumania is a sort of cross between a jig and the game of ring-around-the-rosie. All the dancers clasp hands and form a ring They then begin a stepping, swaying motion that never moves them out of their original tracks, and to the music of the gypsy band they keep it up foI hours.-St. Louis Post Dispatch.

Everything in Tolstoy's character. says a Russian writer, attains titanic proportions. AS thinker he absorbed fantastic quantities of liquor.
