Contestants Eager To Gamble


The campaign cnme to an exciL-
ing close. One Of the disagrceab!r
things about a contest of this sort
is the gambling spirit among some
Of the contestants. No matter how
fairly the publisher may try 80 con!
duet the contest that every award
may be- made on merit. there are
always some candidates who stry TO
take short cuts at the eleventh hour
and pad the ballot box with bogus
subscriptions for which they pay
their own money. THE INDE-
PENDENT had to fight and fight
hard TO keep this sort of money out
Of the ballot box: and it was real
money. the kind Of money weekly
newspaper needs in the bank.
/ One young contestant whose
standing was very low had somehow
borrowed $500 which she wanted to
dump into the campaign Saturday.
| She would have lost her money; the
campaign manager wTicstled with
her all day and finally persuaded
I her to he sensible. Another contest.
ant came in near the closing hour
with more than 5000: he was per-

Too Much Is Too Much
An unfortunate situation was
created in this campaign by The
Daily Advance rushing into SINH

praised of what this newspaper
was doing. THE INDEPENDENT

that it was to stage such a c;im-

contrived to spring its campaign
simultaneously with that Of TIE

D. A. r. FAVORS
DEFENSE POLICY
Pledges Anew Support and
Cooperation.

The Caroline Scott Harrison
chapter of the Daughters of the
American Revolution through Mrs.
James L. Gavin. regent, issued
Saturday a resolution pledging anew
their support and their co-opera-
ton with the war department policy
of National Defense. The resolution
said in part:
Whereas, National Defense is a
question which vitality affects the
women Of our country equally as
it affects the men; and,
Whereas, the Daughters Of the
American Revolution have always
stood for preparedness because they
believe that through preparedness,
peace will best be maintained, and
that the true spirit of American in
stitutions requires that each citizen
be potentially soldier ready to take
his place in time of peril. either in
the field or in the necessary pro-
ductive activity;
Therefore, be is resolved that the
Caroline Scott Harrison Chapter,
Daughters Of the American Revolu-
ton, pledge anew their support to
the ideals and principles Of their
forefathers. and loyalty cooperate
with the War Department in its
policy of National Defense.

A group of pictures which at first
glance seem tantalizing in their
snowy GOODNESS holds visitors in the
galleries of the John Heron Art In
ytitute this torrid weather. Notably
good pictures are these, differing in
character sufficiently to avoid mo-
notony.
THE House in the Hollow is a
delightful painting of ultra-moder--
tendencies, yet with a reserve that
retains charm and delicacy. 1t is
suggestive Of the Japanese. The
subtly harmonious colors are de-
light. This painting is by Caleb
Winhoitz, a Swedish artist. "A Win
er Morning" by Charles Open
heimer, a Scotch artist, is another
snowy landscape of great charm.
"Ice-Bound Canals" is by John F.
Carlson, an American artist This
is a sparkling and richly colored
picture.
More Snow
. heavier colored picture is
Winter Quarters of Mountaineers'
by Adalbert HolZer, German artist.
Dark shadows in low key are typical
Of the German paintings shown. Still
another painting of snow appears in
Alan C. Dunn's Coal and Snow
which pleases by its simplicity and
in faithfulness to fact.
Add to these bracing scenes of
winter the many enhancing bits of
stream or lake, seaside or mountain,
and one has a vacation by merely
crossing the threshold of the Insti-
tute.
1.-THE Bathing Beach, by Haley
Lever, is another alluring subject.
Some one said, God dropped little
bit of heaven down along the coast

1t is not the time for marriage.
For with marriage come questions
that can be answered correctly only
by minds that have matured; prob
lens that leave youth bewildered.
helpless.
There is something beautiful in
the thought of two young persons
Joining hands and hearts to weather
the storms together. But the hard
ship of years take away the beauty.
Sometimes the responsibilities
bring maturity too soon. Sometimes
the young folk weather the first few
years, only to have the. reaction set
into regret the playtime they
missed, and regrettably often. to
seek to make up for it, too late.
