Guarding the sacred bit Of mold
Where fell youth,
Strong in his manhood and his might.
Sacred is my duty. for he loved the
truth;
ceaseless my vigil. he died for Right y
He was a soldier from a land afar.
The dangers of hidden foe he braved.
AS leagues away from home he
sailed to war.
Nor feared his fate
From enemy on, land or wave.

Come to free innocents from tyrant

From his brave lips songs you, love

Above his ears, there fell

When Did Settlers
Hold First Outing
IN CenterviIle?

Old settlers meetings, which are
now attended by the sons and daugh-
tiers of the first old settlers of Wayne
county. and have been held at Center
vile for many years, were started
sometime before the Civil war. The
first one of which there was much
notice, however, was held just fifty
years age. on June IS. 1869.
James Perry, of Richmond, presid-
ed and made brief address on the
progress of the county. Hon. Oliver
P. Morton, war governor of Indiana.
also spoke. Joseph Holman, who was
then the sole survivor of the first par
ty of immigrants in 1905, Colonel
James Blake, Hon. J. S. Newman,
John Peele, Barnabas c. Hobbs, Enoch
Railsback, Jacob p. Julian, Noah w.
Miner, John Green, Dr. Mendenhall,
Oliver T. Jones, Isaac N. Beard, and
DR.. Samuel s. Boyd, were some of
the other old settlers who were on
the stand.
All these men gave talks during the
afternoon on their experiences, and
the early settlement of the county.
Colonel Blake described the first
United States mail which ever came
to Indianapolis. John S. Newman re
membered the old path by Cox's Mill,
built in 1907, to Richmond down the
Whitewater, and how he and his uncle
used to go to mill on horseback. Jhon
Peele was the next speaker, and de
scribed the old custom of handing

Ouacks

The Journal of the American Medical asso-
citation says that the essence of quackery, wheth-
er in medicine or anything else, consists of an ap-
peal to the longing for haste.
According to this theory the swindler who
promises a speedy relief from an incurabe dis
ease is in the same class with the dishonest pro-
moter who promises an investor dividend Of %
to 100 per cent a year. The man who promises
to give you retentive memory in three lessons,
or to develop you into lnguist in ten lessons,
or make you the head of big business with a
salary of 25 to $4,000 year is as much of a
quack as the man who promises to cure you of
disease by mail over night.
Fake methods never lead to success. They
make an appeal because they are flashy and
speedy. The average man wants action, or in
other words he wants the time between cause and
effect eliminated in few minutes, something
that ordinarily is unattanable. It takes time to
cure disease and it takes time to build up bust
ness or acquire attainments. Few men have been
able to get rich over night or to learn new Ian
subordinate to the highest executive in an or
sganization.
Quackery can be found in all fields and the
fundamental appeal which is pointed out by the
Journal of the American Medical association is
the same in all spheres. 1t behooves all of us
constantly to keep in mind that good things are
of slow growth and that success nine times out of
ten comes by the road of hard work. diligence
and application.

Workers Needed on Farms

Telegraphic reports for the past week show
a general improvement in the national employ
ment situation, according to statement author
lied today by the United States Employment Ser
vice, which is cooperating with the Indiana En-
ployment Commission.
In Indiana, East Chicago continues to be the
center of unemployment, the official estimates
stating that 1000 are idle there for whom no
jobs are available
The situations in Indianapolis and Fl. Wayne
and South Bend, last week reported as improving
are this week given showing about an equal
ity as between supply and demand for workers
In Evansville there is said to be normal surplus
of workers.
The situation as pertains to industrial rela
tions in Indiana is said to be good.
The demand for farm labor continues insist
ent and the efforts to induce discharged soldiers
and sailors to return to the farms is not meeting
the requirements of the situation With the ap
proach of the harvest period the shortage Of
workers becomes more and more acute
1t is predicted by those in charge of the EN-
ployment offices that unless there is change il
the developments soon, it may be necessary tx
recruit volunteer workers to take care of the
heavy Indiana crops, done during the
war emergency.

Another Outburst

Our nelghbor The World is thrown
into new fury against Senator
Lodge by his approval of the new
reservation which says that the
United States is to preserve the
exclusive right to decide what ques-
tons affect its honor and vital in
terests. An attempt is made to draw
a preposterous parallel-'that there
is an adoption Of the Austrian idea
that the dispute with Serbia involved
her honor and her vital interests.
This is not so much an insult to
Senator Lodge as to this country
although, of course, not so intended.
Austria falsifed. She said a dispute
involved her honor which did not.
Who has right to say the United
States will be similarly insincere
and screen a foul act behind the
assertion of a sound principle?
No convincing reason for the new
reservation is furnished. Its sub
stance seems already safeguarded
in the reservations to Article X. 1t
merely makes explicit what is i'm
plicit. If the United States is to
decide for itself when advice ten
dered to it by the league shall be
followed, its honor seems in it's own
hands.
But why a hysterical outburst
against reservation whose fault is
merely that of repetitiono But one
plausible explanation offers itself
This is that partisanship so controls
some minds that sense Of proportion
is lost-there is such frenzy through
the lack of convincing arguments
that epithets seem the only relieving
resource. 1t will not be Senator
Lodge who will be most remorseful
over having yielded to narrowness
during the treaty discussion.
