DIR. MINNIE JOHNSON SHOWS
PICTURES AT LIBRARY

The reading room at the library
was filled with an appreciatlve aud
fence Monday evening, to hear Dr.
Minnie Johnson lecture, and to see
her collection of flower slides, and
pictures taken in their natural col
,Ors and settings.
DR.. Johnson is professor OF bot
any at Stevens college, Columbia,
Mo, a member of the Photo Hobby
club and also has classes during the
summer at the University Of Mis-
souri,. She has long since grad
uated from the amateur class in
photography, and does her own en-
larging of pictures. Her COLLECTION
of pictures which has taken her
several years to accumulate, are
very beautiful-pictures of the wlld
flower life of Ohio and Missouri in
their native color and settings, Of
ten obtained after hours OF waiting
for the light to be right-for the
wind to cease for an instant, so that
the blossom might be shown in It's
full beauty, often with camera and
artist fiat on the ground under the
flower. Many closeup views OF the
blossoms were shown, depicting the
beauty of the common things ABOUT
us. Describing each as she showed
the slide, it was intensely interest
ing. Many Of our wild flowers are
native to Missouri, but several
things she spoke of growing here,
are not found elsewhere.
She termed the Hooking valley
the scientist paradise" and stated
there is as great, If not greater va
riety OF wild flower, fern and fun
ri found in Conkle's Hollow than
any portion of United States. She
showed some lovely formal gardens,
scenes from the grounds at Ohio
State and University of Missouri.
She also had on display on the
tables around the room dozens OF
studies in black and white OF
scenes, flowers and portraits, splen-
did, exhibitions and enlargements
which showed her artistic skill.
DR.. Johnson, who is becoming
noted in her chosen field of science,
left yesterday for Colorado, where
she will continue her work and in-
cidentally hopes by going into the
mountains to escape an attack OF
hay fever which appears about this
time each year, when she is in Ohio.

REsUCEs BOY FROM DROWNING

A tragedy was averted Tuesday
of last week, when Donald Vanhorn,
II year old son of Glen Vanhorn,
Union township, jumped from a
load OF hay into the creek at the
Moody bridge, on the Chas. Price
farm, and rescued Russell Duncan,
after ne had gone down the second
time. Russell, the 10 year old son
of Earl Duncan, and two cOmpan-
ions had gone for a swim, and the
Duncan boy had gotten beyond his
depth. Donald Vanhorn and John
Hambel were harvesting on the
Eliza Moody farm, and when
they came to the bridge with load
Of hay, heard the boys cry, and
saw him sink into the water. Don
aid leaped from the load onto the
bridge, then dived into the creek
and came up with the Duncan boy
in his arms Aside from a severe
fright, the boy suffered no i'll ef-
fects from his experience. But it
was most fortunate chance the
older boys happened along, as
none Of the three small boys could
swim much.
