TRIBUNE OFFERS
MURAL PAINTERS
4 $4,000 PRIZE
Chicago Newspaper to Give
This Sum for the Most
Suitable DESIGNS for Deco
ratinq News Room.
(By The Associated Press.)

Chicago, July 26.-The Chicago
Tribune has announced a prize of
$4,000 to mural painters for the
most suitable designs for the en-
bellishment of the news room in
it's new plant, just north of the
Link bridge in Michigan avenue.
Under the plans of the contest,
which will be held under the su-
pervision of the Chicago Art Insti-
tute, the designs to be submitted
must portray some important
phase or episode in the history of
journalism.
Ten free scholarships have been
offered by the institute to painters
wishing to work on the Tribune de-
signs, in order that artists of small
means may not be excluded from
participating in the contest.
The walls of the Tribune local
room comprise three premier and
nine lesser panels. OF the three
larger, the greatest Is Is by s feet.
Among the themes which have
been suggested for these panels are
the bringing in of the verdict in
the case of the King VS.. Gender for
libel, an event of historical import
ance in colonial annals of the Am
erican people and victory for
freedom of the press; the sitting
of the American congress in which
the constitutional amendments
safeguarding the liberty of the
press were adopted; and the pre-
war conference in the old Tribune
office in the late SOS between
Abraham Lincoln and the early
editors of the Tribune concerning
measures which eventuated in the
abolition Of slavery.
Among the factors which the
artist will contend in the execu-
ton Of his design will be two lofty
structural pillars, many large and
small windows, lighting fixtures,
bulletin boards, paper lockers, tel
ephone booths, a monumental
clock and a perpetual calendar.
The actual work, it is estimated,
will engage the services of five art
lists for more than two years, and
these services will be paid for. The

THE SESSION LAWS.

Where are the printed copies Of the session laws?
Four months have passed since the legislature ad-
journed. These laws all now in effect Yet law
yers and the public are kept in ignorance are
placed at great inconvenience to find out the contents
of the laws under which they living.
The Central Printing company has the contract to
publish. The printing was to be done weeks ago.
Where the books?
Is it possible that anyone has any reason for re-
pressing these volumes until as late date pos
sibe? Do those who the organization want to
hold up any discussion of something which was
Slipped over?"
We wonder If previous practice has been fol-
lowed and the Central Printing company has been
paid for this work in advance of delivery of the
books? The Herald can tell u.s. Perhaps it will.
In the meantime the cry is for the session laws.
We want the books The delay is irritating and ncon
venient Let's have the books The delay may be due
to nothing but leisurely business methods But the
public demands the books.

A DEADLY HABIT.

Old and keen observers remark that habit of
the budding motorists, If fairly established never
leaves its victim until he finally lands in the morgue
That is the habit of passing trying to pass what
cars happen to be ahead the open road.
Men familiar with the psychology of motor
driving will tell you that It is the worst of all the
mean bad habits the driver pick up. other
undesirable practices may be outgrown. according
to the old timers and psychological researchers Que
by one road mannerisms may be drilled out of the
offending driver. But the mad desire to pass every
thing the road gets everyone who picks up the
habit.
The driver who wants to get ahead who pulls
around" is urged by that incurable impulse against
which old timers all new pilots The only way
to safety far that is concerned is to restrain
the first promptings Don't make start at it. Keep
in line with the traffic and take your turn with all
the others Why endanger your own life and the lives
of others all around you for the momentary satsfac-
ton of passing the ahead, or two or three cars
ahead?

EDITORIAL OF THE DAY

Back In Civil war days when polished John Hays

Abe Lincoln, the young man in politics was rare
enough phenomenon Whether through lack OF OPP
portunity lack Of independent income. which used to
interest public affairs did not stimulate the private
ambition of the average younger citizen.
More than generation later the famous Cleve-
land Blaine campaign developed handful of REFORM
ers known in those days as "Mugwumps" many OF
whom nourshed political idealism along with their
first mustache. By the average ward politician they
were looked upon inefficient highbrows. and the
cut of their jib not admired in council rooms
where patronage Is bestowed upon the faithful.
In politics today, 5oth local and national. there
are plenty of good jobs for young and young
men for good Jobs. Many OF the latter already

George Christians smooth determination few yards
from President Harding's elbow; Hamilton Fish. Jr.
plugging through the long grind of the house OF
representatives; Senator Schuyler Meyer of the New
York state legislature who is making the summer
hot for Mayor Hyan; Col Theodore Roosevelt,
sistant secretary Of the navy; Van Sanford Merle
Smith, former third assistant secretary of state;
Nicholas Kelly, whose work as one of the assistant
secretaries of the treasury considered so valuable
that the Harding administration wanted to retain
Wilson appointee-these merely few examples
that come to mind.
Go to Washington, young man. Is the advice OF
present leaders of American olitca thought BY this
they do not necessarily mean Washington District
Of Columbia. They mean that in public office there
is both fame and fortune, the latter natural out
growth of the former; that each state is an Ohio:
and that every city, town village, for a starting
place is just as good as Marion.

what next?" asked the doggie
boy.
"We'll take the baby robin to
Nurse Jane Fuzzy Wuzzy,'' spoke
rabbit gentleman. "She will know
how to feed it,"
And when Nurse Jane, the musk
rat lady housekeeper of the hollow
stump bungalow, saw the baby
robin, she said:
"Oh, the poor little dear! I'll give
it some warm milk and make ii a
little suit OF white flannel clothes"
So she did, feeding the baby
robin with a medicine dropper, and
sewing a sort of soft flannel dress
for it in which the little bird kept
warm.
Each day Nurse Jane and Uncle
Wiggily fed the baby robin. and
kept it warm, until 1t grew strong
enough to fly around for I.self. BY
this time MIR. and MRS Robin had
made a new nest and Matched out
some more little birds. No dogs
caught these, and when the old
robins flew with their family TO see
Uncle Wiggily and Nurse Jane, MIR.
Longears called the baby robin he
and the muskrat lady had raised
and said:
Here is another of your little
ones!" And you can guess how
Glad the father and mother bird
were to get back the robin they
the ught was gone forever And the
robins lived together in Uncle Wig

So everything came out all right.

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE,

Exporters were after wheat at
interior points and at the seaboard
as we'll as here. The southwest in
particular noted a bfisk cash de-
mand, and it was said Belgium,
Holland and Germany were in the
market as buyers. The fact that
receipts at the leading centers were
less than yesterday counted. too, In
some degree as bullish factor.
Shortly after the opening, however,
the trade was confronted by re-
ports from officials of the Cana
dian agricultural department that
the Canadian crop was expected to

led to considerable selling, and
temporarily depressed prices. but
the market frightened up again after

spite recent big receipts no great
