At the same time, another branch
of the state government, the legis-
lature, was considering a similar
proposal, in the form of resolution
introduced yesterday by Representa-
tive Roland ID. Sawyer, a congrega-
tional minister of Ware.
Ask For Thorough Investigation.
The committee, which has waged
an unceasing campaign for the free
dom of the two Italian radical
workers since they were first framed
on a murder charge in 1920, based
it's appeal to the governor on his con-
stitutional power to intervene in
cases denied by the supreme court.
Asking that five impartial citizens
be named to conduct a thorough in
quiry, the Defense Committee de-
clared it concluded its clients "can
derive no benefit from any further
proceedings in the courts of Massa-
,chusetts.
World Protest Continues.
Meanwhile the flood of letters,
kilograms, and cablegrams which be-
gan to arrive Immediately following
the decision of the Massachusetts
superior court, denying an appeal for
a new trial, was made last week is
continuing to pour in from all parts
Of the world.
An appeal will be laid before Gov
ernor Fuller tomorrow by members of
the Massachusetts bar association
asking that a new trial be granted
Nicolo Sacco and Bartolomeo Van
zetti, condemned to die.
Asserting that gross miscarriage of
justice has been made, the appeal will
be carried to the leader of the state
by committee from the bar associa-
ton, headed by Attorney Joseph J.
Walsh.
In the resolution the lawyers de-
clared the world was becoming cog
infant of the fact that a new trial
should be granted.

GIRLS TOES GOING
Outlook Bad, Asserts Expert

"They are pretty, but that is all
you can say. The spike heels tend
to make walking a matter OF drag
ging the feet, not lifting them up.
1t throws the weight on the ball
of the foot, raises the arch to an
unnatural height, and straightens
out all the toes, making them help
ess."
What IS known to chiropodists as
the anterior metatarsal arch" is
causing 80 per cent of the trouble,
DR.. H. P. Smith, specialist, 10 E.
Washington ST., explained. The ex-
IRENE high heels throw all the
weight on that arch and limit the
use of the other parts of the foot.
1.-The only use women seem to
have of their toes these days is to
keep their hose from going up over
the foot" he said.
Men are to blame" DR.. Kava-
naugh admitted. 1--WE like to see
women in that kind of shoes. And
most women willfully get their shoes
to small. High heels are all right
for dress, but they are terrible for
the working girl"

WiSeSt of Birds Couldn't
Find Way Out of Harm
less Chicken Coop.

lA tered ed, -. not H.. ..,. ,.- -,
birds we have been taught they
were, but are just big dumb
bells with sense enough to keep
their mouth shut.
Some such conclusion was
reached by Superintendent Oliver
Neal, Of the State game reserve
in Brown County, when he found
a huge horned owl had trapped
itself in an innocent chicken
coop.
The bird was taken alive, dis
patched 10 the Statehouse and will
be sent to the fox farm of Sumner
Pallardy, Valley Mills, Ind.
Pallardy has several similar pets
that have been placed in his keep
ing by the conservation depart
ment.
The owl is one of the largest
reported in the State. Perched in
and improvised cage it gazes on
all with an air of superiority
out of the eyes the size of a
quarter. Yet, caught in the coop
it couldn't find the way out.
Neal charges the bird with
killing a twenty-pound turkey at
the reservation.

We're not going to lose our toes
for a thousand years yet, in the
opinion of some Indianapolis Chi
ropodists, but it's no wild guess that
the human foot eventually will be
toeless if the demand for extreme
ill-fitting shoes keeps on, they say.
But worse still, DR.. George E.
Ksvanaugh, All Roosevelt Bldg, foot
specialist, even predicts that wom-
EN- (who are greatest offenders are
going to have large ankles and
straight, calfless legs if they con-
tinue to treat their feet like pin
cushionsl
men actually have trimmer
ankles than women" he exclaimed.
tits because men wear shoes that
take the strain off the poor ankles
and exercise the calf muscles in
stead.
"It may be little wild to predict
that we will lose all our toes, be-
cause the men are in no danger.
Usually their shoes are correct. But
the style Of shoes that women de-
mand of shoe statesmen are wrong
and it is not the shoe mans fault,
either. They demand them.

Blu United Press
BLOOMINGTON, Ind, Aug. g.
Classroom failure usually is just q
common case of not knowing how
to read, in the opinion Of DR.. w. F..
Book, of the educationa department
of Indiana University.
In reading over tests he conduct
ed during the past year with 900
Indiana University freshmen and
214 upper classmen, he found that
only 81 per cent of the freshmen
tested could give the title they had
read in standardized assignment,
or formulate any Of the chief prob
lens discussed.
The girl freshies were better than
the boys, however, they being able
to master 40 per cent of the points
while the boys we're only able to
master "a per cent of the points
made by the author. The poorest
readers could remember only 3 per
cent of the points made in the
chapter read.
Not being satisfied with this ex-
animation into the reading ability
Of the students, DR.. Book conducted
How to Study" classes. in order
that he could show the students
how their reading difficulties might
be overcome.
The result was, that in the short
space Of a semester DR.. Books two
classes in How to Study improved
their reading ability to 102 per cent
and some individuals were able to
improve their reading efficiency to
the high mark of ESQ per cent.

eMEETINCS Will
START SUNDAY
Seventh Day Adventists to
Meet in Tabernacle
at Cicero.

Beginning Aug. on Sunday night
the Seventh-day Adventists will
conduct a series of evangelistic
meetings in the large Present Truth
Tabernacle in Cicero, Ind. Elders
A. w. Coon and F. A. Wright will
be in charge of this meeting.

musicians will accompany these
evangelists to furnish evening enter
tainment. Services will begin at 7
p. m. with community singing and
sool work, and the preaching service
at 8 p. m..,
There will be meetings every night
except Saturday night. Bible proph-
estes as they appear in the light of
modern life will be the theme of
study.
In an interview with Wright, he
said, 1.-The Bible is the word of God;
it is the voice of God, and speaks
to mans soul as no other book can.
In it is a message for every soul in
every cline. 1t has withstood the
attacks of the atheist, agnostic and
1nfidel. 1t stands today without
scar. Mr.. Coon and I are holding
fhese meetings in Cicero in the hope
calling the people back to the
Bible.
1--WE believe that when the Bible
finds soil in the human heart it will
work transformation in the life,
and will make our world better
place to live in. We also believe
that we are living in the days in
which the Apostle Paul prophesied
that perilous times would come. We
are seeing the prophesy fulfilled be-
fore our eyes today.
I'VE fear that the home and the
good old family circle is crumbling
and that a desperate effort must be
made to restore it. We have def
mite message to bring to the people
i. of this community and we beSpeak
