the "Ouabache." The city of Vim
cennes was named after Monsieur de
Vincennes, who was the first French
man who encamped on the ground
as he passed with French troops from
Canada to Louisiana in or about the
year 1887 Monsieur de Vincennes was
afterward burned with a Jesuit by
the Chickasaws.
A very dramatic short siege was
waged against FIT. Sackville, located
at Vincennes, by George Rogers
Clark. who practically awed the Lieu
tenant Governor and superintendent,
Henry Hamilton, into submission. This
occurred during Clark's victorious ex-
redition into the Northwest during
the revolution.
Much of the best Indiana history
is centered about Vincennes. 1t is
an inspiration for any Hoosier or any
historian, in fact, to visit the scenes
of Indiana's beginnings.

Note From Richard Summers
to Beatrice Grimshaw
DEAR BEE:
I sent you yesterday an article
from -- Moving Picture Magazine,
which contained the story Of the little
Perier. In a way it is true. although
some of the details are fanciful. She
is going to be the find of the gear, Bee,
and S altogether the most fascinating
woman in al! Hollywood
Not the least of her fascination is
that no one, man or woman, has
been able to penetrate her shell of
reserve Poss- bly, she has been more
human with me than any one else, but
I think it is because she knows that 1
am an engaged man and perfectly
harmless.

The city tax levy for 1924 will be
$1035. an increase of 8.8 cents over
this year, according to statement
certified to Leo K. Fesler. county
auditor today.
City council in special session Fri
Gay night reconsidered its action OF

pass the budget and passed it under
suspension of rules unanimously.
Councilman Bernd was the only one

financial condition since Monday night
was removed. making a new levy
and budget for next year. Council
passed only the levy Monday night.
Councilman Wise jeopardized> pas
sage of the budget when he voted
mo" on motion of Claycombe to sus-
pend the rules. After considerable
argument. he changed his vote.
The objection of Wise Immediately
opened the way for parliamentary
procedure which would permit pas
sage Of the budget before today at
noon, the final time for Joseph Hogue,
city controller, to certify a tax levy
and budget to the auditor. Council-
man Buchanan led the way by NOV
ing for adjournment until 9 a. m.
today. thereby complying with the
law that suspension Of rules is not
necessary when an ordinance is in
troduced one day and passed another.
Claycombe Immediately seconded it.
but before a vote was taken Wise
announced he would change his vote,

while Councilman Thompson moved
to adjourn until 1901 a. M, so the
budget could be passed without sus-
pension Of rules. His motion was
seconded.
A question raised by Wise over
the legality of the Is cents added to
the levy by the council for the san
itary board caused Ogden TO hold that
any action for reduction must come
from the State tax board. The State
will not act. unless taxpayers pro-
test in legal manner by the fourth
Monday in September it was said.
The councils action in certifying to
the higher levy and budget was done
on recommendation Of the city legal
department when il was found a 1919
tax law permitted until Sept. Is to
PASS the levy and budget. a commu-
nication from Mayor Shank urged
passage of the budget so the 1924 tax
levy could be assured.

In other words, you are storing up

weight means a let-down in cell re-

EXTRACT FROM ONE OF THE
MOVING PICTURE MAGA-
ZINES.

There will be a new face on the
screen in the near future. A face
and a personality which the editor
Of this magazine predicts will take
the movie fans by storm.
A few months ago, without any
heralding or advertising of any sort,
a little girl dropped into the Blank
Moving Picture Studio She was of
French descent, and while she was
vivacious and smiling. she had a
tricI, of looking very pensive and sad
when she thought no one was OBJ
serving her.
Abram Einstein, with his usual per
spicuity, happened to see her one
day in a casting Office and decided

part in the picture. Overwhelming

the small part but during the first
days work at the studio the star be
came temperamental and left the lot
in a tiff. Miss Perier was thrust into
her role
Every one who has seen the young
woman work has been delighted with
her and Mr.. Elnstein is being CON
graduated on every side. The young
woman seems quite unconscious Of
the fact that she has done anything
in any way out of the ordinary and
of course this will only be decided
when "Overweaning Pride" Is re

Miss Perier never has been on the
stage. but for some years she has
been a model for the smartest dress
shops in a number of the larger cities,
including New York. 1t seems that
Mr.. Einstein saw Miss Perier at the
wholesale establishment of one Of his
friends and said something about her
which Miss Perier overheard.

It is hardly fair to expect you to

The fact that Norman was chosen
as farm manager of the properties
has been taken as a positive indica-

as soon as the taxes are paid. Van
Malta was elected chairman OF the

A few technicalities will have to be
cleared before acceptance, a represen.
tative of the bank said. That a SO

negotiations on the property was the
decision of the committee.
The committee will meet again
