Boys and Girls May
Take a Vacation at
the Earlha,n Museum,

Richmond boys and girls may
have a vacation in their own city
by visiting the Earlham museum.
1t is open every week day from 8
o'clock in the morning until in
the afternoon, and is one Of the
most interesting places in eastern
Indiana.
There are all sorts Of birds and
butterflies, beautiful stones from
all parts Of the world, great huge
skeletons of elephants and maste-
dons, stuffed animals, wonderful
shells and curios. funny old-fa-
shioned tools and pioneer articles,
little toy model of a Jewish tenn
pie, queer delics hanging from the
balconies and walls, and so much
that no matter how often a boy or
girl goes to the museum they al
ways can find something new.
But many children are most in
terested in the Egyptian mummy.
Several girls insisted, the other
day that she was still alive, be-
cause they thought it moved. But
since it several thousand year old,
and since the table will move
slightly when one pushed against
it, there is not much danger
of the mummy frightening anyone.
No admission is charged and any
boys or girls who wish may go in
as often and stay as long as they
wish.

Dear Aunt Molly:
How did the Indians of the
United States get red if Adam and
Eve were white? Yours truly,
Johnson Healy,
All South Ninth Street.
Dear Johnson:
Did you ever hear the way an
Indian himself explained it? He
said that when God made Adam,
He moulded the dust out nicely
into shape, and then baked it and
! bake it in in great huge oven of
His. But since this man was the
first experiment God was so afraid
he would be spoiled that he took
him out of the oven before he was
quite done, and the result was
that the first man was pale faced
failure.
Not being discouraged, however,
God tried second time, but this
time he left the poor man in too
long, with the result that he was
burned almost black
So profiting by His past expert
ence, God tried the third time, and
| this time the man came out done
| to a turn, brown and glistening, a
| perfect Indian.
And Johnson, since Indian" de-
notes the crest of perfection don't
you think it is appropriate to call
our state Indiana"
| Dear Aunt Molly:
On what certain day are we go
ing to win the war?
David Henderson.
Dear David:
If l were a cheap fortune teller
| might predict September IA,
1919, and then be in another part
of the country by the time that
day came, but since l would rath-
er bring out the real truth in my
answer to your question, I'm
forced to say that the real day of
winning the war lies with you and
the boys and girls of America.
If l should ask you what our
boys are fighting for you would
say Democracy and Liberty"
which means that the war only
will be over when democracy and
liberty are proved to be greater
than the German system of living.
For you, David, that means that
our cause only will be won when
you can be tested beside any Ger
man boy today, and show that in
school you make better records, in
playing You are more just and fair
and active, and at home you can
help to make the American ideals
far better and higher than any
German boys under the Kaiser's
rule.
To win the war our ideals of
peace and brotherhood for all ma
tions will have to break down the
German system of guns and muir
der, and instead of you boys adopt
