most titanic in its strength.
Vision of Free Poland
While he was an exile from his
country, news came to him that Po-
land was threatened with invasion by
foreign foe. The Military Polonaise
was written to suggest a glorious Poi
and that has been and which he hopes
may come again. It is a stately dance
that is little more than a great pro-
cession. Although its rhythm is a
three, the tones are so skilfullv ar
ranged that it can nevertheless be
used most excellently for marching.
It's title Military" comes from the
fact that one section seems to initiate
the roll OF the drum and the entire
piece is filled with the pomp of mill

communicative about his former ca
reer. Some members of the depart
ment recall, however, that he often
contradicted himself
Shortly after he was promoted to be
night sergeant Coleman told the chief
that he would write to New York for
a diamond ring which he had there
He said he had removed it from the
body of a dead soldier
Asked why he had left the ling in
New. York, Coleman said it would not
behoOve him TO wear a diamond ring
while he was still a patrOlman. But
he never wore the ring. and the police
believed the story to be an eXagger-
alton.
Subsequently he appeared with a
tWo-carat diamond, of whose value he
boosted much. The ring, it was learned
was very defective and was bought for
pittance on the installment plan
Coleman and another Richmond man
bought two rings from the same
house The other man returned it
when he saw that its intrinsic value
was small. The police did not learn
whether Coleman continued payments
or returned the stone
Coleman, one officer said, liked to
boast about his clothes. A few days
after he appeared in a new suit he
informed his fellow officers that he
was tired of it and would buy a new
one. This he did not do.

QUALITY OF POULTRY
AT FAyETTE SHOW IS
100 Per CENT BETTER

CONNERSV1LLE, Ind, Nov. %
doubled, officials and promoters of the
annual Fayette county poultry show
are highly elated over the success
foretold by the number and quality OF
the exhibits and the attendance.
The quality of birds shown this
year is 100 per cent better than last
year, stated one association member,
who is usually somewhat conservative
in his opinions. Yet with a higher
standard, a total of 500 birds, twice as
many as last year have been entered
by AZ exhibitors, and additional en-
tries are being refused. "a birds from
Newcastle and an unknown number
from Ohio having been turned away
Tuesday morning.
Success of the show is further in
sured by ~ selection of the judge,

Judge at the Madison Square Garden
show at different occasions.
Satisfaction Assured.
With decisions backed by the repu-
tation of such a we'll known breeder,
satisfaction with the awards is as
sured. 1t wa only through the
friendship of one of the members of
the Fayette association, that Mr..
Scranton was secured. He is not in
the poultry business at present, hav-
ing recently quit it for the raising OF
thorough bred Jersey cattle, and his
character is shown by the fact thai
with 13 Jersey entries at the last state

essary to build additional ones for the
many entries

TEACHERS WILL TEST
C0NSTITuTI0NALITY
OF PENSION MEASURE

Teachers of South Bend will start
test case to determine the constitu-
tionality of the teachers pension law
in the courts of St. Joe county within
a short time, said c. o. Williams,
county superintendent of schools in
Wayne county Tuesday morning. Mr..
Williams recently returned from a
meeting of the executive committee of
the Indiana Teachers association at
Indianapolis.
Teachers of Indiana are opposed to
the new teachers pension law because
of the fact that it violates a contract
entered into by the state seven years
ago, with 10000 teachers of the state
Under the provisions of this con
tract. the annual dues of the pension
fund were about $40 to SIS per year, a
considerable lighter burden than the
$50 to $32 per year which they are re
CURED to carry under the new law.
The new law was passed last winter
and has already been condemned as
unjust by the state association Of
teachers.
1t is expected that the test case or
the law will go through the court.
Of st. Joe county, then will be ap
pealed to the supreme court of The
state at indianapolis.
Defer Decision
Definite decision as to whether The
Indiana state teachers association
would operate under the new or The
old constitution of the organization
was deferred until Jan. 5, the date o
the next meeting of the executive com
mittee, Mr., Williams said
1t is believed that by that time
enough information will be available
so that the committee can act Will
the best interests of the organization
at heart.
A new constitution was adopted TO
the organization by referendum vott
but was later rejected in a bushes
meeting
Next years business meeting, which
requires the presence of between
1000 and 10000 teachers, will be hell
in CadIe tabernacle at Indianapolis
Mr.. Williams said The meeting wa
held in TOmlinsOn hall this year ant
considerable difficulty was encour
tered in seating all the members.

Polonaise Militaire, by Frederic
Francois Chopin Cborn 1910 near War
saw. Poland: died 1849, Paris).
The Spirit of Triumph
Nowhere can a finer example be
found of the superiority Of will over
body than this virile composition Of
Chopin No one would conceive OF
these sweeping melodies, these re-
bounding harmonies, and the vigorous
rhythms as being the product Of a
small. delicate and sensitive man.
Poet and Patriot in Tone
Frederic Chopin, the poet of the pi-
ana, was born in 1910 in Poland, that
land Of many troubles. Born a deli
cate child. he never became robust
man. Throughout his life he was sub
iect to visions and vivid dreams. All
the extreme sensitiyeness of his na-
ture appears in some of his delicate
piano compositions, such as nocturnes,
