LIBERTY PHARMACIST
INvENTS MACHINE
TO DISPENSE LABELS

LIBERTY, Ind, Jan. 13-M. ]. Bevis,
a pharmacist of Liberty, is about to
put on the market a mechanical label
dispenser. Mr.. Bevis has been active
as a druggist for "a years, and dur
ing that time he has had an opportun-
ity to study the needs of the profess
sion. Several years ago he conceived
the idea of inventing machine that
could be operated much as a cash reg
lister is operated, only in this case
gummed or ungummed labels would be
the objective at the end of the key.
1t appears that druggists have never
had anything better than trays with
compartments in which to store labels.
This means that labels are often mis-
placed, and, at best, this is a slow
method. With Mr. Bevis's machine
all one has to do is to touch button
and the desired "sticker" is shot out
at him, cut off, and ready for instant
use. 1t will be a double-deck affair,
so Mr. Bevis says, but the amount of
counter space consumed will be no
larger than that ordinarily taken up
by the cash register.
Blue prints have been prepared,
models made, the patent rights have
been safeguarded, and, most import
! ant of all, a Connersville concern has
agreed to handle the project, Mr.. Be
Wis receiving royalty on his inven
! ton

Songbmd Who Lost Voice Wins New Fame

NEW York, Jan. 10 II learned
more in the four years when l couldn't
sing than in the seven years before
when l was singing in many opera
houses"
There is a rich lesson in this state
ment made by Lucrezia Bori, soprano
of the Metropolitan Opera House. a
rich lesson for the many, many young
students who undoubtedly cherish
false ideas regarding operate careers.
For as Miss Bori elaborated, Gin those
years | couldn't sing, but could stusy.
] read, oh, all sorts of things, many
of which had to do with music, but
also many which had no direct con-
nection"
While at the height of her initial
climb to fame FIVE or six years ago,
she was forced TO quit singing while
she underwent operations in the
United States and abroad. "That was
an unhappy time" is the way she puts
1t. Il had two operations, both in
Italy After the one | returned to
New York and here remained during
the entire season of 1851, always
expecting that would regain my voice
and be able to sing at the Metropoli-
tan, and always being disappointed
So l went, in the spring of 1917, to
Italy to find a physician who might
perform miracle
Career Seemed Doomed
Il hate even to think of those long
! days when | went from physician to
! physician, meeting with disappoint-
ment after disappointment Then
| finally discovered a doctor in Milan
who would dare perform the delicate
business. For a month thereafter
| didn't even speak, and months more
passed before | tried singing Slowly
/ however, my voice came back to me
! and then finally l dared sing five per-
formances in Monte Carlo. The fol
lowing year sang forty. And then
well, then / came back to America
| and you know the rest"
That rest" has been a glorious time
for the Spanish prima donna, time
of triumph. To those whose business
carries them nightly into the Metropol
| itan Opera House there can be few
memories like that of night last win
ter when the little Bori came back
The role was Mimi in Puccini's "Ls
Boheme." Her entrance was the sig
nal for applause and possibly tears
And gradually, as in her singing ant
her delicately fitting portrayal of PUG
cinis heroine of pathos the impression
grew that Miss Bori was possibly ever
a better artist than of older days, tn,
audiences enthusiasm grew to tn,
boiling point. But always was thi
I applause tempered with tears, for ever
chilling Metropolitan subscribers hear,
this singer as much with their heart
as with their ears.
These days, of course, Miss Boz

HINES INAUGURATED;
I,U, PRESIDENT URGES
COOPERATIVE SPIRIT
(RY Associated Press)

MUNCIE, Jan. 13.-Speaking at the
formal inauguration of l.. n. Hines
as president of the Indiana State
Normal school here today, DR.. William
Lowe Bryan, president of Indiana uni
yersity, urged continued cooperation
between the educational institutions
of the state, and attacked any plan OF
having a common board of trustees
for all state supported schools. DR..
Bryan spoke in part, as follows:
There are two courses for men,
women and nations. They may empha-
size their rival interests and fight, CT
they may emphasize their common IN
terests and cooperate. The most inl-
portant thing today for all the nations
in the world is whether they will take
the one or the other of these two
courses-one of which means world
wealth and the other ruin. Even SO
with the colleges. They may develop
hateful and ruinous rivalries or they
may have the wisdom to discern and
devote themselves to the deep inter
ests which they have in common. How
shall the educational institutions of a
state escape the worse way and fol
low the better way?
Peace by Good Sense.
THE good way or harmonious CO
operation can not be assured by any
device of law. Certainly not by hav
ing one board of trustees for several
institutions. I know personally and
with certainty that there never have
been worse fights between rival state
institutions than in those having 2
common board of trustees. The figh1
is q fight between rival localities
They fight to have their friends ap
pointed on the board and they figh
within the board for their conflicting
interests. We can never get peace by
law We get peace by good sense
backed UP by friendly feeling. w;
have followed the good way in Indiana
1T is many q year since we have
had any sort of fight in Indiana be
tween state schools or non-stat'
schools. Our mutual friendship is no
an affectation. We perceive our com
mon interests, our common co-opera
tive program. If the nations Of tn
world would be as friendly with eacl
other and as sensible in seeing thel
common interests as are the college
and normal schools of Indiana, Their
would be no more war on earth

Boil Weevil Pest
More Threatening
lBy Associated Pressl

Washington, Feb. ga heavier
infestation of boil weevl in the cot
ton belt than in any recent year is
indicated for the coming season by
observations made at the Delta lab
oratory at Tallulah, La, by experts
of the bureau of entomology of the
department of agriculture, it was
announced today. This forecast, it
was explained, was based largely on
the mildness of the winter, coupled
with conditions last fall which per-
mitted an unusually large number
of weevils to enter Information. Re-
cent records, it was said, have tended
to verify this calculation.
While an abnormally heavy emerg-
ence of weevils was indicated for the
spring, it was said, this. did not nee
essarily mean that weevil damage
would be unusually great since it
was possible that summer weather
conditions might offset the early in
festation. qs6s

ARRESTED LAST NIGHT
Fatally Injured Woman
Sister of Wealthy Chi
cago Man
(By AAAdHiatsh t,rsssl

Miami, Feb. 22S-With d bullet In
her spine Mrs. E. G. Frady, shot Sum-
day by her husband, was reported as
sinking rapidly today .Frady's condi-
tion is improving and he is expected
to recover. He slashed his throat
twice with safety razor after shoot
ing his wife. The two are occupy
ing adjoining rooms at the hospital
and the husband, who>frequently ex-
presses regret for his act, often in
quires as to his wife's condition.
Mrs. Frady is suffering intensely
and on account of her condition no
efforts are being made to question
her as to the tragedy and Frady 6
reluctant to answer questions. A
brother of Mrs. Frady, Harry Thomp-
son, of Chicago, wealthy restaurant
man, is expected to arrive here to-
night.
Jealousy over attentions which he
imagined his young wife was receiv-
ing from other men because of her
beauty was attributed by persons who
knew the couple today as the motive.
At the hotel it was stated to county
authorities investigating the tragedy
that there was no occasion for such
suspicion on the part of Frady but
other guests and attaches of the ho-
tel had noted the manner in which
the automobile man watced his wife
and had heard their quarrels on the
subject.
That Mrs. Frady did not realize her
husband possessed revolver or she
would not have gone to his room with
him was evidenced by. her statement:
"Oh, God; if l had only known that
he had revolver"
