day similar to the one circulated be-
fore adjournment calling for Arthur
Griffith's motion for ratification of
the treaty and canon DeValera's al
tentative proposals. The inference
drawn from this was that Mr.. De-
Valera whatever might be the vote on
the treaty would submit his plan to
the Dali.
O'Connor First Speaker.
Art O'Connor, deputy for south Kill
dare, and Dali minister of agriculture,
an opponent of the treaty was the
first speaker at today's session. He
argued that those outside ''howling at
the Dali to support the treaty" were
men who had never done anything
for the country Premier Lloyd
George, he said, had broken Irish uni
ty Into a spectrum of colors from
extreme purple to extreme red" The
treaty was a step backward, and not
one forward, he asserted.
Michael Collins interrupted the
speaker at this point.

Mr.. O'Connor retorted that many OF
those who had passed resolutions were
not farmers.

him as eating meal or anything else

insurgents as such. He merely de-
spised some of them because they
were weak men, or because he thought
they were "soreheads," or because he
felt, according to his way of thinking,
that they were hyporcites who fooled
the public.
1t is striking fact that among the
few senators for whom he ever
showed much affection was LaFollette.
He liked LaFollette because he had
many of his own qualities of direct

TO SPEAK
TO WAYNE FARM BODY

Preparations have been completed
for the Thursday evening meeting of
members of the Wayne township farm
ers' association, which will be held in
the Richmond high school building,
beginning at Z o'clock, Jan. 5. Prof.
l.. A. Pittinger of near Muncie has
been secured as the speaker and
music will be provided also.
1t was not the intention of the COM
mitee to arrange for an elborate pro-
gram, but rather to allow for an in
formal mixer" and encourage a clos
er acquaintanceship between the farm
ers of the different sections of the
township. For this purpose arrange
ments have been made also for a sup
per to be prepared and served from
the school kitchen during the evening.

DILL Will ADDRESS
UTILITY ASSOCIATION;
MEETING ON JAN. "A

BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Jan. 3-How-
ard A. Dill, of the Richmond Water
Works company, is to be one of the
chief speakers at the annual meeting
of the Indiana Public Utility associa-
ton to be held here Jan. IA. On invi-
tation of the school of commerce and
finance of Indiana university. Mr..
Dill, one of the best known water
utility operators in the state, has
agreed to discuss the subject, "The
Utility Load as an Indication of Bust
ness Conditions His address is to
be delivered before a joint meeting
of members of the Public Utility
association and students and profess
sors of the school of commerce and
finance.
Dean w. A. Rawles, of the school
of commerce and finance, in announc-
ing plans for the meeting said:
THE public utilities constitute one
of the most important industries of
the country. Their activities concern
nearly everyone. Upon their services
the people in their daily lives are de-
pendent for their comfort, conven-
fence and safety. Hence, there is a
universal interest in this business. A
mutual understanding of the rights of
the public and the problems of the
utility companies should eliminate
friction. | am sure many OF our
students will take advantage of the
opportunity to hear the utility opera
tors and others discuss some of these
non-technical problems"

If it only meant fair play, continued
O'Connor, nobody would object but if
it meant placing southern Unionists in

WATSON FALLS HEIR
To LEADERSHIP OF
CONSERVATIVE GROUP

The passing of Boies Penrose marks
the end of an era in the United States
senate, which was marked by the
domination of eastern politicians, and
directs attention to the powerful in
fluence of the western senators, among
them Senator Watson of Indiana says
Arthur Sears Henning, in special dis
patch to the Chicago Tribune.
His comment follows:
THE outstanding leaders of the SEN
ate today are such men of the west as
Cummins and Kenyon of Iowa, Nc
Cumber of North Dakota, who sue
ceeds Penrose as chairman of the fl
nance committee; Lenroot of Wiscon-
sin, Smoot of Utah, Watson of Indi-
ana, Borah of Idaho, Johnson of Cali
fornia, and Warren of Wyoming.
Senior Watson of Indiana falls
heir to the mantle of Penrose as lead
er of the conservative element of the
senate, and the day probably is not
lar distant when he will succeed Sen
ator Lodge as Republican leader. His
influence commands a wider sweep
than did that of Penrose, for Watson
can count on the support of more pro
gressive Republicans than could the
Pennsylvania boss at any period of
his career.
Bar Sectional Lines
"Of course, the rise to power of the
western senators does not mean that
! the west is beginning to profit from
| legislation at the expense of the east
as the east has fattened on legislation
| at the expense of the west for many
wears. The western leaders show no
disposition TO wrest a sectional ad
vantage from the dominating position,
although the east has been loudly
complaining of late that this is the net
result of the operations of the agricul-
tural bloc
The west, however. is in a position
to satisfy its just demands in the way
of legislation. Its men have risen TO
control in the senate and they are I'M
!. dergoing the test of fitness to repre-
sent section of the country which
has felt itself subordinated to the east
when Republicans were in control OF
congress. Some of these western
leaders are still accused of being sub
servient to the powerful eastern in
fluences which ruled the old guard
but with the west in power there can
be no longer a plausible excuse for the
west failing to get what ii wants"

SECOND NIGHT Term
TO BEGIN MONDAY;
COURSES ARRANGED

With the first term of night school
successfully tucked away, and the sec
ond term ready to start on Monday
night, Jan. 9, the vocational director
has turned to perfecting an even bet
ter course for the benefit of schooling
the public in learning a trade. The
majority of the courses have been per-
fected, and Others have been added.
A special course in the making of
window cards will be started provided
the merchants in the city get behind it
and make it go. The project is to
interest the merchants in the city in
the idea of training one of the clerks
in each store to design cards. If the
merchants want this training for
clerks, the director will negotiate with
a trained man in this line and obtain
his services for the night school course.
The expense of bringing a man to
Richmond to teach this work will
necessarily have to fall on the mer
chants interested in the training of
their men. The vocational director
has in view for this work, r. G. Nash,
of Dayton, Ohio, who is an expert
Start Auto Course
20 lesson course for auto mechan-
les will be started under the direction
OF Mr.. Van Etten, provided the enroll
ment justifies it and interest is good.
a class in business English will be
started at $50 each evening of night
school under Miss Mintern. This class
will afford the public the opportunity
to attend three hours of night school.
Practical education along the lines
OF reading, writing, arithmetic and
any subject which should be desired
by students enrolling in this class, will
be available for any person over the
age of 16 years. The class will be I'M
graded and will serve solely to edu-
cate the students in the practical side
feducation. Miss Mintern will have
charge of this class.
Plan Home Cooking
| Another course in home cooking
/ will be available. Mrs. R. B. Morrow
! will take charge of this class. Mrs
! Morrow was formerly connected with
ONO university extension work as an
instructor. The course is open only
! to women with definite cooking
/ problem. Each lesson will deal direct
! ly with three or more dishes, and ad
ditional supplementary printed matter
goes with the course. An enrolment
fee OF 81 will be charged for the pay
ment of material used.
| Other courses for women in dress
making, alteration, dress form making
millinery, and home nursing, will BIZ
at the disposal of all persons.

alton an dthe tariff. His successor
will be McCumber of North Dakota.
AS the representative of an almost
purely agricultural state, McCumber
can be expected to favor most of the
policies identified with the farm bloc.
although he has never been formally
identified with that group. In point OF
fact, as regards the pending tarif bill,
Penrose, in the weakness brought
about by his illness, had already told
the farm bloc they could have what
ever tariff they wanted.
This was the fourth or fifth COM
promise that he would have scorned
to make in his prime. When the
Emergency tariff was up some months
ago, Penrose let it go through, al

Weakness Embarrassing
This weakness of Penrose, due who'll
" to his illness, has been serious
embarrassment to the party. He kept
the seat of office only by yielding Its
essence; and many things went
through which a strong chairman
would have stopped. The other party
leaders deplored the situation, but
Penrose was sensitive about his Illness
and everybody liked him so that no
one would suggest he should abdicate
any of his responsibility.

That women job hunters under
estimate the difference between
bluff and self confidence, between
boasting and self-reliance, is the
opinion of Miss Louise McMaster,
who heads the fifty employment
bureaus maintained by the Y. w.
G. A. in as many cities. Women
are too timed, she asserts, and bend
almost backward in their conscien-
tious efforts not to make an over
statement when selling their SER
vices.
