ON BAXTER BILL

stabulary Will Reach Sen
ate This Week.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. Feb. G.
The Baxter bill creating a state CON
stabulary will reach the floor in the
senate early this week without any
recommendation by the military af-
fairs committee to which it was re-
ferred.

hesitated to prepare a report oe-
cause Of the intense oposition to the
police system plan that has been
manifested by the labor organiza-
tiOns and advocates Of retrenchment

Nejdl TO Lead Fight.
Sen. Nejdl Of Lake county is ex-
pected to lead the fight against the
measure. Sen. Baxter, author Of
the bill will marshal the forces fav-
oring the system. II is estimated
that the proposed Constabulary

first year.
Rep. Fifeld, majority floor leader
IN the house, is assisting with the
preparation Of the specific appro-
priations bill which Will cover main
tenance Of governmental depart
ments not providede for under the
regular appropriations bill.

OF the house is considering a con-
ference with the senate finance COM
mittee before introduction of the
bill. If such a conference is held

duced before the end of the week

PEOPLE HURT
Mr.. and Mrs. Christ, 224 S. St.
Peter ST., in Accident
at Osceola.
REMOVED TO ELKHART
Physicians Believe Mrs. Christ
Will Lose Sight of Her
Right Eye.

Arthur Z. Christ, so years old.
living at 224 S. ST. Peter St, and
his wife, Anna Christ, 49 years old,
were seriously injured shortly before
4 o'clock Sunday afternoon when
the automobile in which they were
riding was struck by an east bound
New York Central train at the Osce-
ola crossing, four miles east of
Mishawaka.
Both were rushed to the general
hospital in Elkhart, where physi-
clans last night said that Mr.. Christ
will probably lose his left leg,
which was badly crushed, and Mrs.
Christ her right eye. from which
the muscles were torn. Her condi-
ton last night was said to be ser
ious because of shock suffered from
the accident.
No Witnesses.
Although there were no witnesses
TO the accident, il is believed that
Christ attempted 70 cross the tracks
in front of the train, since the ma
chine was hit in the rear. The car
was hurled several feet down the
track, while Christ was thrown
more than 40 feet. His wife was
picked up about 20 feet from the
crossing.
The train which hit the automo-
bile is an east bound train and is
due in Elkhart at 4:05 o'clock. 1t
is said to travel at a high rate of
speed. After hitting the automobile
the train stopped and rushed the in
jured persons TO the hospital in Elk
hart.
Condition Improved.
Before reaching the hospital il
was thought that Mrs. Christ would
not recover, since she was uncon-
scious from the shock. Her Condi-
tion last night was said to be slight-
ly improved, although it is not
known whether she is suffering
from internal injuries. Christ also
suffered many body injuries. and for

CHURCH OBSERVES
ANNIVERSARY OF
SCOUT MOVEMENT
Scouts Attend Services in a
BOdy-Pastor Delivers
Special Talk.

The anniversary of the Boy
Scout movement was observed at
the First Methodist church Sunday
evening. Troop %, consisting OF
16 boys attended in a body. Pre-
ceding the sermon, the trooL' was
formally installed and given it's
charter by Scout Commissioner +.
Z. Wolfe.
The sermon Of the evening was
preached by the pastor. The ser
mon subject was a Good Scout"
The boyhood Of David WAS taken as
an example of a good scout He
said in part:
David was fine type of boy
scout. I do not mean that there
was a Boy Scout organization to
which he belonged. 1t is not be-
longing to an organization that
makes a boy scout. There are many
boys wEo wear the Scout uniform
that are not good scouts at ali.
while there are many boys who had
a chance 10 belong to a Scout troop
that are ideal scouts Scout craft
is n spirit and an attitude towards
things in a boys life. David had
that spirit and that attitude He
had four great qualities Of a scout
live i'm Open.
FIRST, DAVID loved the out OF
doors. He lived much in the open.
The very nature OF his fathers
business trained him to that. He
was a shepherd. This took him
over hills and through valleys. He
slept out at night time. Instead of
having books TO read while the
sheep We're feeding or resting he
was studing the trees, the flowers
and the birds in the day time and
at night he studied the stars IN
learning about Gods great out of
doors he came 10 know about God.
He learned how 10 trust God. who
was speaking in the world Of ma
ture.
Second, David was ready to do
a good deed, daily. He learned the
art Of helping other folks. David's
great achievement of service was
the elimination Of a life Of good
deeds. His releasing sheep from the
from the briars in which they We're
entangled, or binding up their
wounds. or driving off the wolves
and bears served only TO get him
ready for the greater service.
Had he neglected these he never
would have become king He knew
how 10 be generous even TO those
who sought 10 take his life A lot
of folks are always waiting until
the big thing comes before they
are willing 20 pay the price Of Civ
ing attention 70 small things. The
