THE SEATTLE SPIRIT FINDS ITSELF AMONG
 BERLIN POLICEMEN

BERLIN, Jan. S.-Graft in at least two important departments of the Berlin police department is under of ficial investigation.
 Disclosures so far made have shocked the German metropolis, since men in high positions in the police had always been regarded as beyond the reach of bribes.
 The most sensational of the cases is that of Regierungsrat Bartels, known as the "dictators of foreign CTS in Germany"
 Bartels, it is charged, accepted bribery passively from General Holzmann, a Russian dealer in gi- gantic shady transactions.
 Bartels, according to the district attorneys evidence, was often a guest of Holzmann at wild wine par ties, and was also the beneficiary of a substantial private account de- posted by Hickman in Bartels' name. The whole scandal leaked out when another Russian revealed that Holzmann had threatened him

SIMPLICITY IS CRY
 IN THE MODERN ART

DETROIT, Jan. 8. United Press)- Freakish designs of early modern art are giving way to simplicity, Dr. C.. R. Richards, president of the Amerl- can Association of Museums said here.
 we need no longer fear for mod ern art" Dr. Richards said. 'It is get ting safe and sane. The modern movement into industrial art is not an revolution. It is an evolution.
 Some people like to say that mod ern art is the result of the war, but the modern movement started in Flu rope long before the war. The real beginnings of the movement date back a century when the order of old craftsmen passed out and ma chimes came into use.
 By use of machines workmen cop jed old forms and the designer grad ually lost his place. said Dr. Rich ards. Naturally there arose need to create and out of this the modern movement in decorative arts came.
 "At first many of the original de- signs of modern craftsmen were lit tie freakish In their efforts to break away from conventionalized forms of the machine made objects they became bizarre. But the modern tendency is to make things simple and yet fine.
 we are still in the transitory stage however It is during this time that only the very strong survive. A guild of 300 craftsmen will have but a few designing minds and many to perfect these designs"
 Establishment of industrial arts museums where the works can be preserved for study was declared vi tai by Dr. Richards.

Chief Black Hawk Gave
 Lincoln Chance to Take
 Part In American War

Had it not been for Black Hawk, the scrappy Indian of early days, Abraham Lincoln would not have had an opportunity to serve as a soldier in the western disturbance known as the Black Hawk war, says the National republican.
 An original painting by Cauin shows the old chief garbed in suit of buckskin. Strings or wampum decorate his ears and neck Held in his arm is his medicine bag, which was made from the skin of black hawk, whence was derived his name. From the tail of the hawk he made himself fan which he constantly used
 Black Hawk was born about 1767, on the Rock river, now in Illinois. He was in his middle sixties at the time of the Black Hawk war.
 At the close of the war, Black Hawk and other prisoners were talk en to Washington and for a time were imprisoned at Fortress Mon- roe. A call was made upon Presi- dent Jackson at the White House. His greeting to the president was: q am a man and you are another"
 After returning home the old war rior settled down in house like a white mans and devoted his time to a little gardening, but he was never happy again. His spirit was broken his ambition gone. Near his little cabin stood two large trees, an ash and an elm. Near their roots was bubbling spring. It became known as Black Hawks spring. Here he would sit in mournful silence hour after hour, looking out on the Des Moines river. Here he died in 1858, aged 72 His wife deeply mourned him. They had been devoted com panions for many years. He was buried near his cabin on spot SC lected by himself. He was buried ln a military suit of blue that had been presented to him by President Jack son.

This, in the minds of those who

Nurmi's sojourn In this country this

For the first time in the history of

Somewhere, north, east, South or

With the material that the United

the distance running type are as
easy to find as any other sort and
now that Nurmi's exploits have
been b'azoned forth from day to

In this way. as in others, A. A. P.

here has been n boon to the cause
of distance running in the United

WASHINGTON, Feb. 25.-Talking
machine manufacturers still CON
slider their relations with radio as
experimental.
It was learned today that the
Victor company, which opened the
new year with a compromise with
the microphone and offered its most
famous artists free to broadcast, has
made plans for only three moro pre-
sensations. These concrets will be
concluded the middle of March.
Whether tho company will con
tinue its bi-monthly programs after
that date will depend entirely on
the appearance of the sales books
at the end Of the first three months
of the current year.
The Brunswick Bake Collender
company. which took the lead in the
b~roadcasting field, is feeling its way
in n similar manner, although n
little more confidently. The first of
the music memory contests. a
novelty arranged by the Brunswick
people for broadcastlng in FIVE cities,
ends this week.
A second contest will be conducted
throughout March. with the same
prizes offered to the listeners who
are able to name correctly the 4s
selections and their performing
artists.
But here also the future is in
definite.
Neither the Victor company nor
the Brunswick company has any
doubts that its concerts have been
appreciated. More than enc hun

Mr.. Jourgensen also stressed the
act that the finance charge to the
owner is 25 per cen lower than that
required by any other similar plan
in the industry today. Then too, he
is not obligated to pay n cent until
the job is completed to his sa~tisfac-
ton. At that time he makes a cash

painting contractor is made by the
Deyoe agent, who really handles the
entire transaction for the property
owner.
The fact that this plan is backed

its soundness. Devoe is the Oldest

Eternal Vigilance

All that has been built up in this country of stability,
prosperity and opportunity for the average man, nav be lost
in a single wrong decision by misguided public opinion at the
polls. The risk to the republic involved in n wrong decision
when fundamental issues are at stake, is too great TO be left
to chance; The education of public opinion along conserva.
tive lines is n part of the duty of every intelligent, progressive
patriotic citizen. Failure to bear a part in that work is civic
hlackerism. That failure participated in by too many compla.
cent Americans who have the habit of waking up n few DAYS
before election, might con~ceivably result in plunging the
United States into the chaos which has attended the disastrous
radical experimentation of certain European governments.
Eternal vigilance is the price of liberty. In n representa-.
tive republic 1t is also the price Of stability, prosperity and
afe progress.
