We have more legends no Wild green fool leading
ghostly shadows behind him in aimess dance
Mr. McCay, practical young artist makes his picture
tit our noisy prosaic times by showing you not Celtic
green harper but something much Americana circus
clown beating noisy drum extong pleasure the only
thing worth while leading his crowd on false hunt away
from everything that makes life dignifed and earnest
This of the unwelcome pictures that tell US what
We do not want to hear but every young waiting
works end and for the hour pleasure come every older
man wondering when he will have enough stop work and
only amuse himself, knows that this picture is true
No one talks seriously about the wild "omadhaun"
with the shadows following him
We know that the shadow is the SOUL that it is
simply the absence of light that the body intercepts
None the less in practical day. this picture of the
old legend shows Noise, lights the beating
dum sound without thought or purpose such is the life
Of millions.
The man or woman pursuing folly-mere pleasure for
s own sake-is never happy The most miserable they
know tare those with leisure and money in abundance
that give themselves up to dleness and self nduqence
always pursuing pleasure, never finding it.
Without real work the spirit of man dries M and
dwindles like tree without rain
Mere pleasure for its sake is delusion There
no actual happiness in anything except work. in real
accomplishment The Divine Wisdom that wound us up and
put here took to build so that only the
pfshment Of our best would fully satisfy u.s.
No one does literally his BEST That is impossible:
for it is not in mans strive to the utmost Rut
we happy proportion TRY to accomplish some
thing real and unhappy otherwise None are more mser
able than those that follow the clown that beats the drum
advertising noisy pleasure as the supreme good

hooks long enough to do some Christ

ment of Woodward & Lothrop's he
found a curious oddly that had
probably escaped several dozen proof

was shown to Fred f. Woodward, in
charge of the department, and by
him exhibited to certain customers.

Here, slightly changed to meet noisy times, Is pic
e OF the ancient Celtic legend about Dua the green fool
You may have heard old Irish ladies rebuke with the
word 0madhaun, folly that bad example Millions
OF young Americans and every boy that lived in Ire
legend of Omadhaun In the Celtic story the green fool
wandered through the land playing sometimes pipe
hike the reeds of Pam with the loud voice. sometimes
harp
Those that heard the playing lost their shadows The
shadows followed Dalua.
The old story told of the green fool playing through the
Land and the shadows of man. beast and bird following
behind like rustlng leaves
They used to think that mans shadow was his soul #
man sold his soul to the devil he longer had shadow
when he walked in the sunlight-the devil had taken it.
When men lost their shadows and the shadows went
following Dalua the bodies to which they had belonged
faded dried and blew away like dust
Their souls wandered on behind Dalua and his noise
doomed to follow him until the end of time
Here is poem about Dalua "The Green Harper" that
tells the story in few lines-Ethna Carbery wrote it,
He hears the wild, green harper
Chant sweet fairy rune,
And through the sleeping silence
His feet must track the tune,
When the world is barred and speckled
With the silver of tn moon,
Thus is he doomed TIL Judgment day,
Although the can should hold
His fevered heart in quiet,
And hide his hair of gold
His soul shall wander, seeking
And its quest be never told

Y. N. C. A. SERVICE
SECRETARY NAMED

Cornell Hewson who served for
fourteen months in Y. NJ. C. A. war
work at Great Lakes naval training
station, has been secured by Secre-
tary Carlander of the Y. NJ c. A.
as service secretary for returning SOL
diers, sailors and marines.

q MILES TO GALLON
IS ESSEX AVERAGE

The Essex, which has been creating
so much comment in automobile cir
cles recently. has added another no
table achievement to its record by
averaging 20 miles to the gallon of
gasoline In a 115-mile test in San
Francisco, according to word received
Friday by Glenn McConaha.
This performance Is all the more
notable because Of the fact that I'M
mediately after the economy test. the
same car was driven over the steep
California Street Hill in San Fran
cisco, being the only four cylinder
car which has ever accomplished this
feat" said McConaha.
Both these tests were made with
the car filled with newspapermen who
acted as observers. The start up the
hill was made at Battery street and
the trip ended at the Fairmont Hotel
Only two other cars have climbed this
hill officially in high gear. One was
a Hudson Super-Six and the other was
an eight cylinder machine"
"At the close Of the tests, the diff
ferential was removed to verify the
fact that a stock gear ratio was used.
In fact, it was not only stock car
throughout, but it had just been re-
ceived from the factory. All brand
new cars are slightly stiff, and it is
not until they have been run several
hundred miles that they develop their
utmost power and efficiency"

BILL PROVIDES
FOR $3,5OO,00o
State Budget Provides Emerg-
ency Fund of 100000 for
State Institutions.

INDIANAPOLIS, March Items
amounting to $3.500,O0O are contained
In the specific appropriation bill, which
was introduced in the house yesterday
afternoon by Representative William
M. Swain of Pendleton, a member of
the ways and means committee, who,
because of his membership on the leg
islatve visiting committee, has had
charge OF the preparation Of the ses-
sion's appropriation measures.
Chief among the important special
appropriations in the new budget are
the following:
1. Emergency maintenance fund Of
100000 for correctional and benevo.
lent institutions to supplement the reg
ular appropriations for the year end
ing Sept 80. 1920.
Q. Emergency and contingent fund
OF 100000 for the purchase of land or
the extension of buildings or activi-
ties OF any OF the states educational,
benevolent or penal institutions.
Non-Partisan Commission
8. Reappropriation of $3.50. 900 voted
to the Central Hospital for the insane
in 1917, and an additional 100000,
the whole $350,000 to be administered
by a nOn-partisan commission of four
members appointed by the governor
for the purchase of land and the cree
ton Of buildings for cottage and col
ony adjunct to the hospital. The COM
bined sum is to be available on April
1, 1919.
Provision is made IN the appropria-
ton for $7,243.73 for the Bobbs-Mer-
rill company of Indianapolis to cover
the cost of printing and distribution
of the War Service text book. The
question about the pay for this book
caused some discussion between the
State Council of Defense and the state
board of education more than year
ago. Both bodies approved the pub
lication, but neither had funds avail
able for the cost.

SLICK SAYS TRUCK
IS FARM NECESSITY

The farm truck may supplant the
stationary engine as the source OF
power for odd jobs around the farm,
thinks F. f. Slick, who handles the
truck in Richmond.
Combination with the L. A. Young
Industries, manufacturers of farmer
power plants, has been effected by the
Republic company in order to make
handy power source out Of the Re
bubble.
In literature issued by both COM
panies, the Republic is shown doing
odd jobs, such as filling silos, grind
ing feed, saving wood. and running
farm light systems, Which is new
use for the truck.
A special line shaft which hooks up
to the rear wheels of the truck is the
device which does the trick. This
stationary engine develops eight
horse power.
