RICHMOND, Ind, Aug. 31.-The
SiXty-ninth Indiana infantry held
it's last reunion in the Richmond
Leland hotel here Friday. Only
twenty-eig members of the regi-
ment are alive, with homes in eleven
states, and of that number ten we're
guests of Colonel Oran Perry, who
entertained with dinner as the
farewell gathering of the veterans.
There was little joviality as the
ten gathered in a private dining
room of the hotel for their last re-
union. In former years the annual
gathering of the Sixty-ninth was
replete with fun but the ravages of
old age gradually have changed
the spirits of the men.
The regiment was recruited in this
section Of Indiana and had large
number of Wayne county men in it.
Colonel Perry, then an adjutant,
organized and drilled the men.
Two days after they were mustered
in they took part in the battle of
Richmond (Ky0. where the unit
played an important part. Colonel
Perry was in command. The last
reunion of the regiment was on the
anniversary of the battle.
Most of the men attending the
farewell dinner we're residents of
Wayne county. Colonel Perry has
been superintendent of the Soldiers
and Sailors monument in Indian
apolis for many years.

ANDERSON, Ind, Aug. 31.-"Boys
and girls of today are just as good,
moral and law abiding as older folks
teach them how to be-" declared DR..
Paul Voleker, president Of Battle
Greek college, in an address on
Experiments in Education" before
the Madison county teachers in

"You can make a boy be good
by giving him ideals. A good boy
in. bad group falls down. A bad
boy in a good group comes up.
Morals are taught rather than
caught. Subject the boy to the
proper sort of idealisn and he will
be a good boy, better than the
average"
DR.. Voelker referred to his lee
ture as his $1,000 lecture" because
he spent that amount to gain sci
entific proof that the goodness and
badness of boys may be controlled
by idealism. In his research he
selected $50 boys in New York and
subjected them to various tests OF
his own invention to show trust
Worthiness.
Half of the boys we're placed in
charge of two Boy Scout leaders
With no other stimulus than these
leaders, who served as ideals, the
boys in the group over which they
we're in charge displayed great
moral strides as compared to the
group where no ideal was given
Boys in both groups were unaware
that a test was being made.
The speaker said the tests
showed that a boy go per cent gooc
is the average morally.
"a boy who grades rs per cent
is better, but if the boy grades sc
per cent he is Sprouting wings anc
really is not for this world. Why
is it that boys can not be more thar
80 per cent good? 1t is because
their parents, their ideals, are moi
entirely trustworthy"
Experiments of DR.. Voelker dis
proved the theory that boys Of
higher intelligence are more trust
worthy than dull boys. His test
showed the opposite to be true.
Boys are either educated to be-
come rascals or to be good. Give
a trustworthy boy ideals and he will
be as good as the average and gen.
orally little better. There can be
no boy who is perfect, because he
can find no ideal that is perfect"

Ewing admitted the failure of pro-

the country bone-dry with the
statement:
There is a vast difference be-
tween a nation constitutionally dry
and one practically sober. We shall
continue to face grave problem
as long as any considerable portion
of our citizenship vote dry and
drink wet.
Neither is it healthy to have
considerable portion of judges,
legislators. prosecutors. and other

but personally wet"

being attacked through state nulli-
f1cation rather than by a direct at
tempt to remove it from he consti-

tended this is intended to stir up
public sentiment to an ultimate
drive to repeal the Volstead en-
