That, says the king, was the sig
nal for "a struggle for power that
lasted two hours. And in the end
l had to yield before Horthy's base
and disloyal greed" Skipping all but
the last pages, here is the climax,
in the kings own words:

sworn an oath of loyalty to the Ma

Horthy: THAT oath is no longer

that to the National Assembly"

THE HAIR

=" WO hundred representatives

~ and neighboring States are
at French Lick attending the mid.
summer meeting of the Central
Railway Association. A large fleet
of motor buses is parked outside
the hotel where the convention is
being held.
Bus manufacturer are display
Ing their wares. and many of the
traction men rode to the conven-
ton in motor buses.
Somewhat significant. isn't It?
Traction interests blame the pri-
vate automobile and motor bus for
all their ills. They claim their
investments are being destroyed
and they are being put out of
business by motor competition.
They appeal to public sympathy
and try to lure paying passengers
back on their lines.
But probably not a traction rep
resentative at the French Lick
meeting rode an electric line to
get there. Many Of them made
the journey by motor bus and
many, doubtless, by private auto
mobile. Like ordinary people, they
prefer to use motor transportation
when possible.
Electric roads give necessary
and valuable service. Discontinue
ance Of all traction lines would be
calamitous TO many communities,
but people like motor transporta-
ton, either public or private, and
will resort to that mode Of travel
in increasing numbers.
Traction lines apparently realize
they must live with motor trans.
portation. They can't kill It. The
use of busses, and manufacturers

traction convention show that
traction men believe the only cure

ANOTHER BANDIT
VISITATION

m HE Rural st. branch Of the
Fletcher Savings and Trust
- Company was visited by a
lone, unmasked bandit yesterday
morning. He casually strolled in,
put the employees through their
calisthenics, and escaped with
about $4,000. No clews.
Last fall a midday robbery at
that same bank was staged. That
time the bandits got away with
about $4,000. They were never
caught.
Neither the drought. the ukulele
nor the gypsy moth is causing as
much havoc in Indiana as the
bank bandit. Hardly day passes,
but some Hoosier financial in
stitution is despoiled by. a rude
stranger.
Various methods to combat the
bandit plague are advocated. Some
believe a State police force is the
only answer. Into the past few
weeks a plan to organize volunteer.
armed vigilance committees in
every community has received at
tention-and is being perfected.
Michigan has a State police
force-and bank robberies. Illinois
has a Statewide organization of
armed vigiiantes-and bank rob-
berries. How would either system
have prevented the footing of. the
Rural St. bank yesterday or last
fall?
Both those robberies occurred in
broad daylight in city teeming
with regular police, deputy
sheriffs, militia. and hcrsethief de-
tectives. Yet the bandits escaped.
They would have done neither
more nor less If also there had been
State police and vigilantes.
No particular nostl'um will cure
bank bandit.'y. OLD fashioned law
and infliction of heavy sentences
on convicted bandits will be just as
efficacious as any newer system.

THE Prisoner of Zenda" contains
no chapter more alive with thrills
and intrigue than the real-life strug-
gle for a throne now going on in
Hungary.
The leading man is the handsome
regent, Admiral Won Horthy, who
had the audacity to order his king
and emperor. Charles the Hapsburg,
out of the country and into exile,
where he died a heartbroken man.
The leading woman is the ex-em-
press Zita, Charles widow, pretty,
ambitious and resourceful. And the
necessary touch of pathos is fur
nished by little Prince Otto, her eld-
est son, a beautiful child with large,
blue eyes and flaXen ringlets cover
ing a head a Greuze would love to
paint.
Seeks Throne for Boy
Today Zita, the queen mother, is
scheming to GUST Won Horthy and
place curly-haired Otto on his ia
theirs throne. And Horthy is coun-
tering by driving through the Buda-
rest parliament an act creating him
first peer" for life-really king save
for the crown.
Now, if Zita succeeds in cajoling
the Allied Council Of Ambassadors
into permitting Otto to mount the
throne of Hungary it is more than
likely that Horthy will play his final
trump, namely, crown himself and
order his troops to stop Otto and the
queen-mother at the frontier.
The advantage is Admiral Hor-
thy's. Many Hungarions oppose a
Hapsburg reservation. A majority,
perhaps, would prefer electing a king
from among the descendants of one
Of the old reigning Magyar families.
Horthy is already a Magyar noble
and he is now making himself FIRST
peer" and uncrowned king. The
chances, therefore, are that Hungary
would readily accept him as happy
compromise between the Hapsburg
and Magyar princes.
Whatever else Horthy may be. he
Is man Of courage. In 1921, when
King Charles secretly crossed the
frontier from his exile in Switzer-
land and suddenly appeared at the
Royal Palace overlooking the
Danube, Horthy layed his life

Roman shields. The first Is said to
have been sent by Mars in answer
to the petition of the Roman popu-
lace for protection. Eleven others
were made, so nearly like the first,
that only the priests were able TO
distinguish them from the first.
Like the Palladium in the temple OF
Vesta. these shields were regarded
with the greatest veneration. A
Roman general. before going 10 war,
would propitiate the god OF war by
going to the temple Of Mars and
touching the shield with his lance.

priests was organized TO take care

Was leather always tanned as II
is today?
Probably the original process Of
curing skins was that OF simply
cleaning and drying them. Then the
use Of smoke, sour milk, various
oils and the brains Of the animals
themselves was found to improve
the texture Of the leather. Later It
was found that certain astringent
banks and vegetables effected perma-
nent changes in the texture Of skins
and stopped decay. The Romans
used leather which they tanned
with oil. alum and bark. The earli-
est explorers Of America found the
Indians wearing skins prepared
with buffalo dung oil and clay. No
improvement in general methods of
preparing leather took place from
the most primitive times until about
1890, when the use Of lime to loosen
the hair, was introduced. BY 1925
English tanners were attempting to
introduce new. methods by which
the tanning process could be short
ened.
