OF $2,3OO,OOO to Indiana university. Although
this vast sum was generously bestowed upon a
great institution of learning by the will of the do

states stepped in and took 100000 of the total
or almost so per cent from the university through
inheritance taxes.
The state OF Michigan levied tax Of $35OOOO
The federal government took big slice, the state
OF Indiana imposed high rate and Illinois took
Its share BY the time the federal government and

Lindbergh a Legend-kin OF Gods

New York, June 24.-The beauty
industry, having worked up a snappy
trade in face lifting, nose adjusting
and such, has now gone into the leg
shaping field.
Slender ankles and calves being
quite the vogue, number of con-
Germs have sprung up in the white

New York youngsters are required
to take their play where they find
it and, being extraordinarily adapt
able, manage somehow to forget
their surroundings whatever they
may be.
Not long ago parade of huge
apartment hotels thrust their noses
up on Broadway from 45th Street,

the most fastidious eaters in the

Not only are the stars fastidious.

Negri says they want certain dishes

compliments.
And because opera stars are this
way Negri declares they arc the
"most delightful people to serve"
He Knows What They Want
He serves Giovanni Martinelli

ghetti. He prepares chicken soup
with rice and spinach for Rosa

exactly how long to boil the eggs
for Antonio Scott.
His veal outlets cause Beniamino
Gigli to drop by Atlanta whenever
in the south. Only recently Negri
met Gigli on train. rushed him to
the hotel, where the two had
feast and got him back in time to
continue his journay.
Guido likes to do things Nke
this. He believes Americans are
making hash Of their lives, because
they are putting too little art into
the preparation Of foods and too
little thought into their habits of
living. In fact, he combines food
with philosophy, because he is
keen student and can reel off quo
che and others.
Served King Albert
Guido served King Albert, of Bel
GUM, on board "The America" and
was in personal charge of Wood
row Wilson's needs when the war;
time pres idcnt made the memorable
voyage to Paris peace conference.
President Wilson was not fas-

youth who achieve eminence are
characterized not only by high in
tellectual traits, but also by persist
ence Of motive and effort, confidence
in their abilities, and great strength
or force of character"
This conclusion of the psycholo-
.gists of Stanford University, who
studied the characters of 800 emil
nent men and women sof history to
determine the factors that make for
success, is most significant The
superior young men pursued high
ideals, developed significant inter-
ests, and created new expressions
Of scientific and philosophical
thought before they had reached the
age of manhood.
Among the examples cited to prove
this contention is the fact that Mil
ton had written an ode pronounced
by an eminent critic as perhaps the
most beautiful in the English Ian
guage, before he was 81 years old.
Hume had defined his views before
he was 25. Peel was chief secretary
for Irelend before he was "a, Raph-
ael had painted the. Grapduca Ma
donna at 81, Beethoven was appointed
chamber musician to the king at 10,
Newton had developed his views Of
light and colors before he was 20.
Bacon wrote philosophical work be-
fore he was 20, Montesquieu had
sketched his spirit of Laws" at a
similar age, and. the Englishman,
Jenner, even before 20, had thought
out the processes that led to his
discovery Of vaccination for smallpox,
boon that freed mankind from one
of the greatest scourges that I'M
peded the progress of civilization.
The genius appears usually in a
superior family, in which he has
superior possibilities. for education
and other inspirational factors in
his environment. In childhood he is
likely to display superior intelli-
gence, superior talents and superior
traits of character.
While many an eminent man may
not meet these qualifications, the APP
pearance in childhood of d combina-
ton Of the highest degree Of general
ability, special talent, seriousness of
purpose, and indomitablc persist
ence may be greeted as indicating a
capacity for adult achievement of
high rank. The wise parent will do
everything possible to give such a
child even more opportunity. The
gifted youth Of today is the leader
of the future. Heredity sets some
limits, but within these limits ade-
quate training may raise boy to
the greatest possible stature.
In concluding, the psychologists
quote the poet, Horace, who, some
thousands of years ago, arrived in
dependently at similar conclusions:
"'Tis only from the sturdy and
the good that sturdy young are born;
in steers, in steeds, appear the, merits
Of their sires; nor do fierce eagles
beget timidi doves. Yet training in
creases Unborn worth, and righteous
ways make strong the heart; when
ever righteousness has failed, faults
mar even what nature has made
noble"

The Walb Retirement

Once more the head of the Republican State Com
ittee says that he is about to give up the field Of
politics and will resign sometime before Christmas
That might sound like promise of Christmas
present to the thousands of voters in this State who
have an affection for that political party
There was time when it would have sounded like
a threat to desert the captaincy of battleship on
the eve of battle But times have changed
The truth is that the retirement of walb is i'm
portant only as an admission that the past three
years OF Republican party management have led to
disaster and to rather lamentable effects upon public
affairs.
The viewpoint of public office which he repre-
sented is not conducive to the best public service.
He reflected in his acts the prevalent idea that
the public offices of the State were to be gained for
the benefit Of the party and its leaders and its
donaters rather than with an idea of service to the
whole people.
There was nothing in the code of the era over
which he ruled which suggested that the best way to
public confidence was to merit it.
When last fall he turned loose his famous state
nent of widespread corruption by the international
bankers" set on destroying the vrtucus Watson and
Robinson, and thus brought about the Reed inquiry
which quickly exploded that exaggeraton, he merely
played the game as he understood it. The voters were
not to be trusted, but fooled
Tho coinciGent sale of stock in his COZ Instruction
company and his official interest in the pardon Of
brother of those to whom he sold was in keeping
with the political ideasshe represented.
Those ideas were never accepted by the rank and
file of the voters of his party and repulsve
to the independents in politics.
Little will be gained by the Walb retirement unless
there is a change of viewpoint.
The Republican party has not merely lacked lead
ership. 1t has been in the control of kidnapers who
used its name and power.
The departure of Walb will leave the doors open
to other things than merely naming his successor.

Smith and Ware

Seldom does the United States Senate register SO
exactly the countrys state of mind it is registering
it in the of Smith Of Illinois and Ware Of Penn
sylvania.
The country does not want those two men in its
highest legislative body and that is all there to it.
This newspaper has no JOY in any mans misfor-
tune and yet it takes peculiar pleasure in the thing
the Senate is doing 1t was Scripps- Howard news
paper that first challenged the attention Of the Senate
with the news OF the Pennsylvania financial orgy.
The now famous Reed committee was born Of that
expose and it was the Reed committee that uncov-
cred conditions under which Smith was elected in
Illinois.
Yet this newspaper wasn't fighting either Of these
men, as men. It was fighting what they represent in
national affairs. It was fighting the theory that
money can have anything it wants in politics 1t is
glad indeed see the United States Senate deliver
a crushing defeat to that theory
