Lindsay to Take
Audience to All
Realms of Verse

Handling both high brow and
Jazz poetry with the same sureness
of touch is the reputation held by
Vachel Lindsay, who is to appear to-
morrow night at the high school
auditorium at s o'clock in the read
ings of some of his own poems.
Poetry in dialect, is one of the
many sides to the versatile Lindsay,
according to critics. One example of
this is given in his Daniel Jazz"
wherein the poet tells in the dialect
of the negro, the story Of Daniel in
the lions den In the Chinese
Nightengaleo Lindsay tells of
Chang, who is worker in Chi
nese restaurant, but who lives in a
vision filled wit horizontal romance.
Some classed Lindsay's fame with
that of Edgar L. Guest, whose
verse is known and read daily in
scores Of newspapers throughout
the United States.

From ommorlal times the San Elias

They are the purest breed Of people

years. however. the government OF
Panama has been ondeavorlng to es.

posts on four islands along their
coast. The government has made IT.
self obnoxious, has interferred with
the customs of the people and sub
jected them to arrest for petty
causes.
An American missionary, Miss
Anna Coope, who had established a
school among the San Bias, has
been interferred with repeatedly
First her school was closed, then
she was allowed to teach at nights,
later her teaching was restricted
TO the instruction in the Bible, and
finally she has been restrained from
teaching even that, except on Sun
days. Miss Coope has written let
ters OF protest to the President Of
the Republic and to the American
Minister to Panama.
One of the most offensive acts OF
the Panamans has been the issuing
or an edicit prohibiting the wearing
Of nose rings. The wearing of the
rings in the nose is one Of their an
cient and honorable customs, III
trinsically no more barbarous than
the earrings, and the style is clug
to stubbornly by the San Bias.
The edict against the nosering is
believed to be traceable to a speech
made by Senator Reed, Of Missouri,
in the United States Senate against
the League of Nations. In protestTg
against the equal participation Of
Panama, he declared that Panama
might be represented in the council
by an Indian with a ring in his nose.
The speech was very offensive to
the Panamans, and is believed to
have led to the effort to break UP
the wearing of nose-rings.
The San Bias Indians are a mod
est, cleanly people, simple and un-
spoiled, ruled by the ancient Bibli-
cal low of an eye for an eye, a
tooth for a tooth. The man who
stabs must be stabbed.

u. S. EXPLORER
BRINGING NEW
FRUIT'TO u. S.
BY l.. Ii. HAAS.

Omitted Press Staff Correspondent.
Santiago, Chile, Nov 30.-Pene.
trating the hinterlands of Central
and Western South America in
search for varieties of fruits. vege-
tables and fodder plants hitherto un-
known in the United States is a
quest as scientific and fascinating
as the exploration of unchartered
seas, according to Wilson Popenoe,
of the U. S. Department of Agricul-
ture.
Popenoe, who is the discoyerer OF
'Rubus Macrocarpus" the giant
blackberry of Colombia, said to be
the largest edible berry discovered,
has just completed trip of two
years in Central and South Ameri-
can countries. He will leave soon
for the United States with scores
of samples of plants which he be-
lieves may be grown in various
parts of the United States. Popenoe
has pursued his search in Gaute-
mala, Educator, Peru, Colombia and
Chile
THE purpose Of my trip he told
the United Press, was not to find
vegetation of an absolutely unknown
sort, but to collect unknown vari-
ties of plants already cultured in
the United States with a view to
improving and enlarging our own
variety. In this, | have been at least
moderately successful. My principal
object was to obtain better varie-
ties of the "palta" or alligator pear,
than those we are grow ing, and in

pears that are harder and richer
in food value than any have ever
seen.

Where II Started.

According to Fire Chief Gattls,
the fire started In the basement di.
rectly under the Tignor Grocery.
Flames were sweeping out of the
rear entrance OF the basement be-
fore the danger was discovered by
Mays Jones, life insurance. man. who
was attracted by the light from the
flames.
When the fire department ar
rived, intense clouds of smoke we're
rolling out of the basement, max
ing the work of the fire-fighters
more difficult. Partitions in the
basement and the gas created by
the flames also handicapped the
firemen, who were at the scene from
S:45 until nearly II o'clock.
Loss to the building is estimated
at approximately $500. The en-
tire loss to both stores and the
building is practically covered by
insurance. 1t is estimated that the
Tignor stock was valued at $500
and that more than 80 percent was

The origin of the blaze Is mys-
terry. Fire Chief Gattis inspected
the basement Tuesday morning and
found nothing that appeared to be
q fire hazard. L. Tignor, proprietor
Of the store, stated this morning
that as far as he knew, only d
small amount of coal and a wooden
crate were the only combustible
material stored in the basement.
There had been no fire in the fur
mace in the basement for more than
a year, Mr. Tignor said. I'm at a
loss to know how the fire started"
Mr. Tignor said
The Rosenquest building is located
between the First National bank and
the Dixie store buildings, two of
the most valuable structures In the
city.
The fire caused a ripple of excite

firemen combat the blaze.
Plans for the repairing of the
building are being made, it was
