Special TO Indiana Daily Timss
and Philadelphia Public Ledger
BY RICHARD SPlLLANE.

ST. LOUIS, Mo, Nov. 4.-Festus
J. Wade, president of the Mercantile
Trust Company, says the largest
three wholesale dry goods companies
in st. Louis are doing the biggest
business in volume of goods in their
history and that the largest four re-
tail department stores likewise are
doing the largest volume of business
in their history.
Buying was curtailed in the early
part of the year. he adds. owing TO
the low price of cotton, but when the
t5outh's great staple crop went to 20
cents a pound there developed a
brisk business in every line of en-
deavor here.
Joseph r. BarTlOll. who manages the
business Of Butler Brothers in territory
covering seven or more States. and han
ding 10000 items of goods carried by
general stores. says his sales for the last
few weeks show S to u per cent better
in dollars and cents and about 20 per
cent in volume above the best record Of
their biggest ysar-1920.
BIG INCREASE
IN SHOE TRADE.
President Rand Of the International
Shoe Company. says his company is be
hind in filing orders. although it is man
ufacturing co per cent more shoes than
ever before. Last year its shipments
amounted to S0.OO9 GOO dollars. This year
will show 10000 600 increase in dollars.
He ascribes the great demand for the
st. Louis made shoe to the fact that II
Is Of standard character and has been
brought down to within A per cent of
1914 prices, while sections Of the country
making shoes OF other styles have been
unable to reduce overhead charges and
have been left heavily overstOcked.
Labor conditions here. he explains, are
not so extreme as in the East and, al
though the wage scale has been somewhat
lower in st. Louis, the Missouri shoe
worker has made more money. Last
weeks business, Mr.. Rrank added, was
the biggest in the history OF his com
pany and this week is bigger than last
week. Orders for spring goods are COM
ing big and fast.

AS MISS ALICE EXPLAINED IT.

Not long ago the congressional dele
cation from Oklahoma went to pay its
respects to President Harding, the
Philadelphia Ledger states.
When it entered the chief execu-
tive's Office the men came first and
Miss Alice Robertson, the congress
woman, brought up the rear.
This is a fine how-do-you-do," said
Mr.. Harding. Whats the idea of all
you men preceding your distinguished
woman associate?"
But Miss Robertson came to the
rescue with Ler explanation. The
men went first in submission to her
will, she said. 1t was a custom pc
culiar to Oklahoma, follower from
the old Indian days. When Indian
men and women entered any building
the men went first and the women
followed. It was not that the men
we're given precedence. Quite the
contrary The Indian women fur
nished the will that guided the move
ments of such parties. When cattle
are driven down the road by cowboys,
they go first, not as matter of pre-.
cedence, but because Of stronger
will behind which impels them.

Some time ago, the United States
Bureau Of Education at Washington,
printed a statement which showed the
of money that had been
earned by different groups of young
people up to the time they were twen-
ty-five years of age. Those who had
remained in school until they were
eighteen had earned nearly fifty per
cent more than those who had left
school at fourteen and had been work
ing four years longer.
Such a statement of facts will con-
vince intelligent parents that they
should keep their children in school
and not yield to the temptation of per-
hitting them to go to work because
the family's expenses are high and
children are paid better wages than
formerly.
Men and women are always CRATE
full for the sacrifices which their par
ents made in order to give them edu-
cation. They know that in the strug-
gle ito make a living, the educated
man or woman has great advan-
tage over the ignorant and can reach
higher places and receive better pay.
Today the competition among those
who work, whether they work with
hands or brain, or both, was never so
keen, and the ones who are best equip.
ped are the winners. An education
is one of the chief items h the neces.
sary equipment.

CHILDREN SHOULD Be KEPT IN SCHOOL AS
:. LONG AS POSSIBLE.

Your state laws tell you that yoV
must send your child to school until
he is of certain age and then he may
leave and go to work-if you let him.
And he may want to do so and beg
you to, let him take that job in the
factory where his friend works. But
you are, older and know better than
he does what is for his best interest.
You know that if you let him leave
school as soon as the law allows, you
are giving him no better chance in
this world than all children get-for
the law requires them to all go to
school that long-and If you yield to
his urging now you will have to bear
his disappointment later when he finds
out that it was great mistake.
The education which the elemen
tary schools now give is better adapted
to the needs of children than the
courses which were taught a genera
ton ago. Today the child learns how
to make himself useful and how to dc
this in an intelligent way.
After starting in the right way, the
longer the child stays in school, the
more, useful he will become and the
better able to take upon himself the
responsibilities of life. The school Of
today aims to make intelligent, eff
cient citizens, but it will not succeed
if the child is taken out and put tt
work. at the earliest possible moment

"UNWELcoME HOME GUESTS"

Prudent husbands and wives guard
their homes carefully against visitors
likely to bring scandal, immortality and
shame into them, says the Chicago
Journal of Commerce. Bad company
is an association to be stunned every
where, but especially in the home,
which is the citadel of virtue,
responsibility and honor for the
nation.
Visitors in this family sanctuary
from which all evil communications
should be barred, must be entirely rep
utable, if it is to be kept clean in
thought and deed. The husband and
father wants no man of Questionable
reputation given hospitality by his
wife or daughter; the wife will tolerate
in her home, to associate with her
husband or son, no woman of immoral
character.
These are fundamental facts bear
ing on the purity and happiness of
home life, which nobody disputes. No
decent man or woman wants guest
given to conversation about immorali-
ties, or sensational stories of crime,
or the exploitation Of criminals,
seducers or vampires.
Boys and girls budding into man
hood and womanhood are entitled to
only the best influences, the highest
ideals, the finest examples Of purity
| and righteous living in :. their
homes, because since it was first
established as the center of family
/ life. the home has been recognized by
all enlightened governments as the
most potent incentive to good citizen
ship and respectable life.
1t is a strange fact that many fam
lilies which exercise the most scrupu
lous care as to the persons who enter
their homes as guests, entirely over
took certain insidious and dangerous
promoters of evil thought and bad con
duct which are given unquestioned ad
mittance. We refer to immoral books
magazines and newspapers.

WOMAN cRlTIcIsEs HER SEX.

Women" says the average man in
his moments of irritation, ARE un-
reasonable. They drive fellow
mad"
And the same man Is instantly
swept by such hurricane of abuse
as to make him sorry once more that
he had spoken.
There is mo charge which the mod
ern woman resents more than that Of
unreasonableness. She prides herself
on her cool head and capable judg-
ment. She expresses contempt Of
her sister Of other times-an un-
balanced creature, with no mind Of
her own about anything, nor desire to
develop one. Yet, despite her pro-
,fessed common sense. one wonders
now and then whether the modern
woman is actually as reasonable as
she imagines,. .,,,,,. ,.,..

PLUTARcH ON EDUCATION.

Plutarch said ("De Educat. Puer,'
cap. XIX: 'The essential things in
the education Of the young are to
teach them to worship the gods, to
revere their parents, to honor their
elders, to obey the laws, to submit to
rulers, to love their friends, to be
temperate" These, strange to say,
are just the branches of learning the
modern education" Ignores.

THOUGHTS FOR VACATION.

With the end of the school year
many children in the natural course
of events, finish their common school
ing and there is temptation for par
ents to think "a common schooling suf-
ficent and to put the children to work
instead of permitting them to >go on
to high school. Unless financial con-
ditions compel this course, it is very
grave mistake. The boy who quits
school at the end of the grades is al
together too likely to start on a
blind alley job" and to find it very
difficult to put himself in the way of
promotion. Something can be done
by evening school work or by CORE
spondence study but it is only the ex-
ceptional boy that will take advantage
of these means even when they are Of
fered.
Independently of the matter of
making a living it is desirable for
young people to go to high school. One
of the durable ,satisfactions of life is
found in an acquaintance with the
great minds of the world whether
these have, manifested themselves
through our own language or through
other languages. Vast numbers of
people are unable to read anything
beyond the daily paper and too many
content themselves with the sports
page of that publication. Ordinarily
it requires schooling to give a taste
for good reading, and parents should
not deny their children the necessary
schooling.
1t is true that 1t often requires sac
rifice to give children higher educa.
ton, but thoughtful parents will will.

WHEN you LOSE YOUR TEMPER

Never continue conversation when
you find yourself losing your temper.
You sometimes are obliged to hear
speeches that make you angry, but
you are never obliged to answer them.
It is certain that, if you do not have
sufficient self-control to stop a CONVEX
sation which is causing you to lose
your temper, you will not have suffi-
cient self-control to avoid saying
things for which you will be sorry
afterward.

4 ONG LAND CASE ON
IN THE CITY COURT
Charles R. Haskins, of BrantIey
County, Suing Yaryan Rosin
and Turpentine Company For
Alleged Damage to Land
by Abandoning Contracts.

The case of Charles r. Haskins, of
Brantley county, VS.. the Yaryan Ros-
in and Turpentine company has been
occupying the attention Of the city
court since Monday afternoon and is
still far from finish.
The case involves something like
$4,000 and every point is being
warmly contested by the opposing at
torpneys, Bennett, Twitty & Reese,
and Conyers & Wilcox. 1t seems that
the Yaryan people had contract to
remove certain stumps from the land
of the plaintiff, and that the company
had removed them from certain por-
lions of the land, that the owner at
various times, interfered with those
in charge of removing the stumps and
the turpentine company stopped the
work entirely, withdrawing the differ
ent gangs engaged in the work.
The owner of the land, through his
attorneys, Conyers & Wilcox, places
an amount of damage on each acre by
the turpentine company's failure to
remove the stumps, not exactly dam
age, but rather, that the land would
have enhanced in value so many dol
lars per acre had the said stumps
been removed.
The case occupied all, of yesterday
and promises to go well into today
All parties at interest should remem
Der that the hour of converting ha:
been changed to 9 o'clock, instead o
$50 as heretofore.
Notice to Jurors.
| All jurors, parties and witnesses no
engaged in the trial of the above case
are not required to report this morn
ling until II o'clock, instead of the
usual hour as the case now being
heard will likely not go to the jury
until that hour and Judge Butts de
sires that the jurors have as much
time as possible to devote to their
personal affairs.

no benefit to their daughter; on

ONLY WAITING

Only waiting till the shadows
Are little longer grown,
Only waiting till the glinmer
Of the days last beam is flown;
Till the night of earth has faded
Prom the heart once full OF day;
Till the stars of heaven are breaking
Through the twilight soft and
gray.
Only waiting till the reapers
Have the last sheaf gathered
home,
For the summer time is faded,
And the autumn winds have
come.
Quickly, reapers! gather quickly
The last ripe hours of my heart,
For the bloom of life is withered,
And hasten to depart.
Even now I hear the footsteps,
And their voices far away:
If they call me l am waiting,
Only waiting to obey.
Only waiting till the angels
Open wide the mystic gate,
At whose feet l long have fingered,
Weary, poor and desolate.
Only waiting till the shadows
Are little longer grown,
Only waiting till the gli1nmer

Soda and chloride Of lime will

If grease is dropped on the

Soda is an aid to cleanliness and
economy in housekeeping.
A small amount Of soda added
to acid fruit before sweetening
saves sugar.
Adding a little soda to water in
which vegetables and tough meats
are boiled makes them tender and
sweet and hastens cooking.
Ham should be parboiled in soda
water. Take out, wash, scrape and
boil in clean water. This makes
ham very sweet and tender.
In warm weather meat may be
freshened by washing in cold soda
wash before cooking. If slightly
tainted this treatment will cure it.

cream before churning helps to
bring the butter.

Fine Manners
Come from Within

While it is imperatively i'm
portant that one must be ones own
self in all important things of life,
it is almost as important that one
should refrain from foolish affec-
tations of the minor traits of
others. Fine manners come from
something within ourselves and
not from some outward affectation
of another. Looked at from any
point of view pure affectation is
something to be avoided as it is
wise to avoid everything else that
is purely artificial.
