PICTURES AND
MUSIC FIRST
Crane Places Emphasis on Im
portant Items in Home
Making.
;; The Importance of music and good plc
, turea In the home was emphasised by
Boss Crane In his Better Homes lecture
yesterday afternoon at Tomlinson Hall.
“Ton may think me Insane.” he told
■ his audience, “but the first thing I should
hare would be music—<ven before we get
rugs, or curtains or a davenport. We’ll
ft the music first, while we hare the
.money.”
Since he was discussing the home
making problems of newly-married cou
ples Mr. Crane considered a piano too
•expensive, be said, so be suggested a
priced talking machine. The
next important thing, he SRid. is a pic
ture, “not necessarily n costly painting,
but at least an artistic reproduction.”
At this point, the lecturer introduced a
• beautiful painting in harmony with the
color scheme of its other furnishings, and
observed that while his proposal might
'seem extravagant, the spiritual side of
home-making should not be overlooked.
Next Mr. Crane took up the matter of
rugs, draperies and other items and when
the room was furnished complete—with
good furnishings, ha pointed out—the
‘total cost was about S6OO.
Miss Evelyn D. Hansen’s first demon
•tration in the art of dress last night
proved an entertaining and instructive
feature. She introduced several models,
of varying types, and told how, why,
■when acd where various styles and colors
of gowns should be worn. The models
tanged from youcg girls to a sllver-
Jfcmred matron, and many women in the
yptience were observed taking notes on
VM lecture.
• Miss Hansen was scheduled to give her
second demonstration at 3:30 o’clock this
afternoon, followed by Mr. Crane's enter
tainment-lecture, “From the Eyebrows
Up.” At 3 o'clock tomorrow afternoon the
lecturer will give a gallery talk on the
display of paintings and ft 8 p. m. he
will speak on “Dollars and Sense for
Tour Town.” The institute will close to
morrow night.

CORRECTION OF
DEED IS ASKED

strument Clouds Title.
Legal action was instituted today in
the Circuit Court by William D. Cni
'bertson and his / wife, Ida B. Culbertson,
to have the records in the county re
leorder’s office corrected as the result oi
.an alleged plan carried out by Martin
Donaldson, who is known by several
ott-e names, in obtaining a reputed forged

tSODS.
Besides Donaldson, the other defend
ants to the suit are John H. Castor,

vestment Company and the Railroadmen’s
.Building and Savings Association.
• Mr. CastoT and the two companies are
Also victims of Donaldson's schemes, ac
cording to the complaint filed by the Cul
■ bertsons.
By a reported forged deed, which was
filed In the recorder’s office, Donaldson
obtained “possession” of a lot owned by
the Culbertsons without their knowledge.
“ Then on the strength of the "deed,” he
borrowed lsrge sums of money by put
ting two mortgages on the Culbertsons’

and the two companies resulted In Don
aldson's arrest.
' The suit asks that the records be cor

LINCOLN CITED
AS TRULY GREAT
N A What Man Has, but What
He Is, Counts.
George M. Barnard, of the Indiana
public service commission, in talking to
the Kiwanis Club at noon at luncheon
at the Hotel Severin yesterday, said
that things worth while are not always
to lie purchased with gold. Mr. Barnard
declared that the .Master when He walked
the earth and said to Ilis disciples:
"He that would be greatest among you,
let him be the servant of all,” really
voiced the Itotarian and KWauls spirit.
“The greatest man,” he asserted, “is
he who stands not for the best things
for hlms-elf but for the beet things for
all." •
Men are being worshiped too much
for what they have and are being
elevated too little by virtue of what they
really are, the speaker believed. He
said the right way to judge men is by
their attitude toward those things that'
are for the public good. Money, fame
and popularity are oniy conditions in
i’te —not qualities. Abraham Lincoln, in
the opinion of the speaker, stands out as
an example of real bnman greatness.
The Kiwanians, after a stormy
took a stand with the friends bf daylight
saving through a resolution offer'd by
T. Barlow Hatfield. The club expects
to set a hot pace this in an en
deavor to win the attendance prize offered
by the international Kiwanis organiza
tion. Worcester, Mass., is in the lead,'
with Indianapolis a close second.
It is announced that indana Kiwanians
may have a special train to Cleveland,
June 21, tlie occasion of the Kiwanis in
ternational meeting, if 123 club members
agree to go. O. B. lies, chairman of the
“On to-Cleve!and” committee, hopes to
obtain this number from the local club
and the clubs of southern and central
Indiana.

A great many precinct workers were
laying the defeat of Mr. Howe squarely
at tho feet of the Jewett-Roeinlqrr
Lewoke-News Influence. Precinct com
mitteemen who were thought to be rock
ribbed members of the “so-called organ

ago and that they did not do everything
to defeat Shank that they could have
done. It was said that many eomiultteo
men were not so zealous In having Demo
crats who wished to vote Republican
ballots challenged as the Howe leaders
wished them to be. This, it is said, was
true in several north side, as well as
south side precincts.
There seemed to be little doubt in the
minds of the lesser lights of the de
feated machine that most of Its mem
bers would remain loyal to the Repub
lican party and help Shank. Homo of
the Howe workers who remained at head
quarters all night after the election to
