trim for their match at the Ar
mory tonight, where they clash IN
the feature attraction on the Her
cules A. c. wrestling card. Two
supporting tussles are on the pro-
gram, the first at $50.
Slagel, rough and tumble grap-
pier of $50 pounds, is the graphing
artist who jumped into prominence
last summer by defeating Joe Sa-
voldi in New York He is a Ger

years ago at Kansas university.
Steinborn is reputed to be the
strongest wrestler physically III
heavyweight circles and scales 225.
Matchmaker Lloyd Carter says
the bout has created sharp interest
among Hercules fans, with the
chief point Of speculation centering
around the question of whether or
not Slagel can evade Steinborns
"bear hug" grip. In two previous
local appearances the Kansan has
demonstrated an uncanny ability to
break out of tough holds.
Andy Rascher, Hoosier wrestling

The E,iniey Reunion

The tenth annual reunion of the
Finley clan was held at the Deer
field church Thursday, Aug. %. AT
the noon hour a wonderful dinner,
served in cafeteria style, was fur
nished by the ladies, and was sure
enioyed by all. A short program
was furnished in the afternoon
piano duet, readings, and solo; ana
several interesting talks were given.
Rev. and Mrs. Wachs of Malta were
present and a fine talk was given by
Mr.. Wachs. Short talks were given
by Glenn Finley of Mt. Sterling;
Laura Finley of Detroit, Mich; Mrs.
Cromley of Ashville, o.; Mrs. Mary
Cotterel Of Claysville, Pa; Reverdy
Best of Malta, and others. 1t was
voted to hold another reunion next
year. on the same date. One add1-
ton, Mrs. Ralph Finley, was made
to the Finley clan since last year,
and appropriate suggestions were
made to some of the bachelor Fin
leys.
The same officers were elected for
the coming year: President, Chas.
Finley of Malta; vice pres, Silvey
Finley. McConnelsville; sec'y-treas.,
Mrs. Fern Finley, McConnelsville.
It was regretted that our secre-
tary, Mrs Finley, could not be pres
ent, but in her absence Mrs. Rhoda
Drury acted very capably in that po-
sition. Many deaths have occurred
among the Finleys since the reun-
ions have been held.
1t was a fine gathering and all
went home with kind remembrances
of the day and reverent thoughts of
those who have gone on to the
great beyond.-XX.

along as a symphony at least il would be
good solid church hymn or pretty ballad.
Maybe it is because women have had more
time TO think about themselves that they have
taken up psychiatry. They would like to be-
lieve that a mental discovery would send them
away with flag flying and drum playing.
They have pretended. It's nice game for
little girls. But grown-up ladies should read
the words Of another philosopher who sug-
gested that when one becomes man one
should put away childish things.
There is no fault with the psychiatrists-
so long as they admit that their science is an
ancient one and that people can organize
themselves by using little common sense.
When Mrs Franklin D. Roosevelt told
senior members of New Yorks private schools
the other night to practice cooperation and
helpfulness, and make their lives richer
through this aid rendered to others, she was
giving advice far more important than the
backward burrowing into juvenile history.
We can not live to ourselves alone. When
we do, that pilgrimage into our minds, that
attempt TO find why we do this thing, why
we don't do that thing, begins But when We
remember that our link is in the universal
chain, and look forward, not backward, we
will build-straight. tall, shining, toward the
stars!

tells us, and professions, he continues, are
filled with mediocritieS, for the most part.

make to a row of zeroes that your great-grand-
mother or your husband-or a book of poetry
or an hour with great philoSopher-can help
you just as much.

FRIDAY. APRIL n. 1894
LAWMAKER DILLINGER

lust as the Lindbergh kidnapers forced
passage Of the successful federal anti
kidnapping law and as the recent outbreak Of
lynching piled up sentiment behind the
Wagner-Costigsn anti-lynching bill. so is John
Dillinger forcing general extension Of federal
police powers against criminals who seem to
be beating the states.
DIIinger is not just one bad man against
the United States He is, unfortunately,
symbol OF crime in its latter-day aspects in
America HIS is crime on rubber tires crime
armed with the finest killing devices known
to science. Unlike Billy the Kid, Charles
Quantrell, the Jameses, Fords, Youngers and
other famous outlaws Of the past, this bandit
killer IS at large over at least five states. The
Jaws and the police of Indiana and neighboring
states seem helpless to catch and punish him.
Even 5000 men have not succeeded thus far.
Eight bills. part Of the administrations
twelve point crime-hghting program, have
passed the senate. These include measures
intended to make transportation of stolen
property across interstate lines, robbing of
national banks. kidnapping flight to escape
prosecution or giving of testimony, and assault
Of federal officers more easily detected. more
swiftly and severely punished.
Six of the senate bills have been ordered
reported out by the house judiciary committee,
none has been passed by the house. That body,
however, has passed bill providing interstate
compacts to permit two or more local govern
ments TO combine to fight crime. The
remaining four bills of the program. treating
largely Of procedural problems, have not been
passed by either house
Congress should, and doubtless will, COM
plete this legislation promptly.
One can look askance at this invasion of
states rights. and sympathize with such
old-fashioned Americans as Representative
Hatton Summers. who. up until now, has
opposed their passage If, however, congress
is careful to con1ne the federal power to
purely interstate crime we believe it will serve
the ends of justice without serious inroads into
local police power.
Congress is walking on dangerous ground
But the alternative OF unchecked crime is even
more dangerous.

E. NJ. B. A. MEMBER
CONDEMNS STRIKE

By Real Silk Employe
AS a member of the E. M. B. A
for five years, I would like to try
to make some things clear to those
who are not familiar with condi-
tions at Real Silk Hosiery Mills
and who. perhaps, are unduly in
fuenced by union propaganda.
The E. M. B. A. has represented
Real Silk employees for a dozen
years and in that time all employees
have had good wages and good
working conditions. All through
the years of the depression we
have worked steadily. while thou
sands we're unemployed Can the
union mills say as much?
Real Silk is trying in every way
to live up to the NRA. The union
says that President Roosevelt wants
every worker to belong to a union
We we're organized in an efficient
highly satisfactory union long be-
fore President Roosevelt's election.
Every one was satisfied until outside
union organizers worried over the
$4,000 in yearly dues which they
would like to get from Real Silk en-
ployes and began to stir up trouble.
If the strikers would work and
pay their bills, instead of expecting
people to forgive them their debts
for example, one striker told his
landlord he would not pay his rent
this month as he had to save his
money while on strike-they would
be doing more to uphold President
Roosevelt and help the NRA than by
listening to paid organizers who are
thinking Of their own profits.

TREASURES
BY EFFIE L. WORKMAN

All my life, have wanted things.
Not for vanity, which brings
Heartache, when we strive for show.
But, because I loved them so.
Dainty dresses. hats and shoes.
Dame FASHIONS latest tints and
hues.
To me. these things were like the
flowers.
Making gay this world of ours.
AS child, dreamed. some day
Lovely things would come my way.
would own hat Of lace
Whose dropping plume would shade
my face;
A sllken gown, of texture fine,
A velvet coat, all these were mine.
And yet. no miser's wealth craved I.
But beauty, which gold could not
buy.
Strange tricks, however, we're
played on me.
For the beautiful things I craved
to see
Have not been found in ribbons and
laceS
But we're hidden away, in the
strangest places.
In the happy laugh of my baby at
play
Came a burst of Joy, at the close
of a day.
In the gold of her hair-little face
so sweet,
Lay my treasure of beauty. for ms
complete.
