Illinois College Youth Attempts to
 Force State to Tell Means of Prosecution for Mothers Murder.

Ottawa, Ill, Dec. 2S (UP)--De- feated in their first important move, counsel for Harry Hill, 22 year old former college youth accused of kill ing his mother, today attempted tc force states attorneys 10 reveal the means by which they intend to prosecute him.
 The attack was in the form of motion which demanded that States Attorney Russell c. Hanson specify which of five counts in indictments against Hill will be substantiated to prove that Hill killed his mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Hill last August fol- lowing quarrel.
 The indictment charged Hill with murder in five different forms. The defense hoped to force the state to concentrate on one specific count, in order to prepare a specific defense. Hill lost his initial legal move when Judge Joe Davis overruled q plea to allow him to withdraw his mot guilty" plea, in order to introduce motion 10 quash the indictments. such a motion may not be introduc- cd as long as plea stands.
 Examination or 65 jurors was to open following Judge Davis decision on the motion 10 force the prescott tion to specify its point Of attack on Hill. The judge excused P tales men without examination by counsel on various excuses.

300 PSYCHOLOGISTS
 MEET AT COLUMBUS.
Mental DiagnosticianS Consider
 Every Phase of Brain

Columbus, O., Dec. 2S CUP)- Some 300 mental iagnostcians- knifeless vivisectionists who special ize in the genesis. powers and func- tions of the human mind-ga thered at Ohio State University today for the Seth annual meeting of the American Psychological Association.
 Every phase of psychology, our feelings, reactions, emotions and why. in short. We do what we do, were discussed by the psychologists who exchanged ideas in q symposi- um. Nor were the discussions con- fined to the idiosyncrasies of the human mind. Animal instincts and the why of them. were laid bare.
 To the psychologist there is some truth in the statement that Gentle men Prefer Blondes-while intuition exists no stronger in he female than in the male.
 They will explain, too. they said, that the instinct that causes the cat to come back" IS merely due to 8 good sense of direction.
 AS for the murderer returning to the scene Of his crime. the modern metaphysicians claim there is some psychology to the assertion-a mur- derer will invariably return.
 "Thought of the crime" said Pro- lessor II. F. Burt of Iowa State Uni vcrsity, host to the visiting psycholo- gists, twill continually prey or inc mind of the criminal and eventually lead him back to the place where 1t was committed. It is merely the mental reaction 10 the physical ac- ton that brings him back"
 In the opinion of Professor Edwin s. Robinson, New Haven, Conn. the belief that psychology Is merely "a matter of vague opinion" is erron- eous.
 Experim ental tests have borne out he said, that practical psychology as well as psychology from the theor- otical standpoint, is one Of the use ful sciences of the world today.

YALE AUTHORITY
 TALKS ON DRAMA
Stanley Williams Traces Trend
 at WOnan'S Club Meeting

The Woman's club of New Britain with Mrs. Lawrence Mouat, presi- dent, met in the chapel of the First Congregational church yesterday Stanley Williams of Yale university gave an interesting talk on the Trend of the Modern Drama"
 Mir. Williams called Hendrix h. sen the father of modern drama, for 1t was this Norwegian dramatist who in 1850, began to write plays whica aefied the old established type deal ing with mere happenings. Hi plays, such as "Hedda Gabler,' "The Dolls House." Ghosts and others, all bring forth the inmost thoughts and feelings of their characters un- masking the underlying desires and motives. he said.
 European writers followed this de parture. In England. George Der nard Shaw read Ibsen aVidly and be gan to bring forth dramas of sim liar trend. But Shaw does not reach the tragic depths of 1bsen; he fac. facts in less intense way. In hla Joan of Arc" Is presented a sWce. natural pleasant girl, not the tradi tional romantic figure of historN His Caesar and Cleopatra" portraE a rather world-worn man of 52 In 9 commonplace affair with woma' whose charms and wiles were no greater and no less than the charm and wiles of modern women.
 James NJ. Barrie's dramas are real in a disarmingly human fashion with commonplace, unaffected char acters of simple naturalness. Bar rie can bring unashamcd tears to the eyes through his power of DOT traying the depth of human feeling the speaker said.
 Mir. Williams mentioned Johu Galsworthy as consistently success ful dramatist and John Drinkwat" as art stage manager or EnglanI Drinkwater has made El!Zabetha drama live again, has produced nearly all of Shakespearc's pla}% and has brought forth many fin historical dramas, such as hH Abraham Lincoln" and "Oliver Crom we'll"

 Mr. Hall estimated that Colonel I.indbergh's aerial exploits since he hopped off for Paris have cost the Photograph and News Gathering as- scciations s5,0O0,000.

After Twenty-Five Years The Loomis Idea

 Lincoln Apartments
an open letter

I have just finished building in reality, structure which have been building men, tally for over twenty-five years
 If have been able to successfully com- bine beauty and living excellence, and at the same time incorporate every modern feature of convenience I will feel that have achieved my goal.
 Twenty-Five years of personal owner- ship and personal management; twenty-five years of personal experience in providing for the comfort and welfare of hundreds of families; twenty-five years of education. The Lincoln is the result.
 As it stands today, ready for occupant cy, it meets every expectation of beauty, utility, convenience and economy. Every kitchen has Frigidaire, gas range, roony china closets and dining al- cove with breakfast set.
 The living rooms are unusually large, daylighted with four windows, equipped with ample wall sockets and the artistic touch includes arched doorways.
 The bedrooms are particularly we'll supplied with clothes and linen closets and a mirr0red door is all added convenience.
 Every bathroom is tiled and has every- thing modern bathroom should have.
 In the basement we find huge heating plant, complete laundry, and individual storage rooms. The heat distribution is handled through the new Hart and Hutch ins0n wall recessed" radiators-an innova- tion in wall space, both interesting and suc- cessfuL
 'Thermofll," recently discovered product acts as positive sound deadener. This, added to the extra heavy doors, iso- lates every apartment and insures complete privacy.
 And with all of these admirable fea- lures l am happy to say that am able to rent these apartments at the modest rate of $52 to $55 for the three room suites and $62 to S65 for the four room suites.
 Eighteen charming homes combine to make the Lincoln an inviting spot to call your home.
 You are cordially invited to come and inspect the building at your convenience. l assure you of delightful investment of your time.

From your seat on North Mountain

Obscured by Fog.
Under certain atmospheric condi-
tons fieecy clouds hover over this col
orful, elongated stage like the CELL
ing flies that hang backstage in any
artificial theatre. At other times a
great, solid mass of fog obscures the
whole of the stage as completely as
the tightest asbestos front curtain
ever made.
A view not unlike this is to be had,
too, from monumental Green Knob,
high point in the Alleghenies at the
Randolph-Pendlet county line. And
still another is from Haystack Noun
tain, menacing peak from which the
stout west winds have whipped almost
every vestige of vegetation. Only a
few stubborn pines are able to
weather the gale and even the crown
ing rocks are weather-beaten and
! pocked.
But the giant of them all is the
naughty Spruce Knob, where the rug
ged Alleghenies reach their zenith at
dizzy height of 1850 feet. A little
below is the tableland known as the
Hunting Ground. Beyond this is the
inevitable drop to the basic North
Branch stream, and away from that
billowy stretch of hills, valleys and
streams; hills, valleys and streams,
until the eye can take in no more and
the landscape is blurred in blue haze
that reaches to the sky. Here trees
and skies and streams and mountains
have conspired to paint a picture of
unforgettable loneliness.

shelters the valleys from the storms
of the West.
Pendletonians and their neighbors
in Grant have rarely, if ever, "bally-
hooed" the wonders of their land.
They have welcomed the visitor, have
lavished their native hospitality upon
him and have quietly shown him these
choicest scenic spots. But they have
never tried to sell it to him, nor even
urged him to look at it.
Natives are Content.
Rather, the native of the community
has guarded this garden spot jeal-
ously, but not selfshly, for himself.
Here he has been content to live COM
fortably, and oftimes luxuriously; to
till his farm; to educate his children,
and to worship God. Little has he
cared that his community has not be-
come the biggest, the busiest and the
richest. What are these as compared
with comfort, security and happiness?
He is just little bit proud of the
suggestion that his is an isolated
heath. To be sure, he does not be-
lieve that. And, besides, it is in his
creed that nowhere else is the SUM-
shine so bright, the streams so clear,
the mountains so lofty and the skies
so blue. And so he chuckles, perhaps,
at the money-mad world outside, and
likes to think and talk of his home
land as "The Independent State of
Pendleton."
Small wonder, then, that the Gov
eminent has found here an ideal spot
in which to enlarge its timber re-
serve. Experts have found that the
area is remarkably free from fires and
little of this vast acreage of timber
has been exploited, because Of its very
inaccessibility and the fact that few
of the individual owners hold enough
to justify the heavy expense necessary
! to its operation. Climatic conditions
are regarded as nearly perfect for
such reforestation as might be at
tempted.
More Funds Needed.
Purchase Of the tract necessarily
will be slow. Not enough money is
available to buy any large amount at
once, and there will be the usual de-
lays incident to reluctance on the part
of some of the owners to sell.
But eventually the transition to
government ownership and operation
will be consummated. And as the for
est preservation project goes forward
the incidental recreational benefits
will be discovered. Roads will be
built; camp sites will be set aside; the
streams probably will be restocked
with fish, and new colonies of wild
game will be started.
Some of this will be done by the
Forestry Commission, for it is part
of its business to make forests ac-
cessible and attractive. Part, doubt

:. But even with State road program
5nly partially complete, Pendleton and
Grant counties today are readily ac-
cesible. Semi-hard-surface roads lead
into them from the north and from
the south. Except for their tortuous
curves they are all that the motorist
could desire. Direct east-and-west-
