TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 21, 1928 OHIO'S RETURN A split in the Republican party in Ohio is prophesied by the Republican state chairman, Freed W. Warner. He believes that it will illuminate the proportions of that caused by the Bull Moose party in 1912. Mr. Warner also announced that a contest for the Ohio delegation fought out in Ohio by Senator Willis and Secretary Hower would deliver the state to the democratic party in the election. Ohio's quota in the Kansas City convention will be 51 delegates, so it is worth going after. In the event that the Willis-Hoover factions offer the anticipated opposition, Ohio would not only be lost to the democrats but the republicans also would have a number of votes in Congress. Mr. Warren may be right about this, but he should not be. The commonly accepted, decent rule in political campaigns is to show preference at the primary and unity at the polls. THE VOICE OF THE ORGAN Lest we forget, it is well to remember that this is not an Ohio year in the coming presidential campaign, the reason for which must be objection to everyone with at least an eight-year memory. Senator Willis and his followers, however, have apparently permitted this to escape them. While listening to an organ recital of the brilliancy of that given Monday by Prof. Laurie Anderson, of the School of Fine Arts, one marvels at the development made in this old musical instrument since its invention in 200 B. C. The use of organs was not common before the 14th century; and even then they were very imperfect. Early instruments had 12 or 15 keys, which were struck with the fist and those produced the tones of only the diatonic scale. The players were called organ pianists; and this term is descriptive of the nature of the loud tones produced. Until recent times the organ was associated almost exclusively with the church. For that reason the style of its music was dignified and at times ponderous and lacking in grace and the more human qualities. How different is the score written for the perfected organ of today. The newer compositions have greater freedom and variety, more brilliancy, stronger contrasts and wonderful effects of color, especially in the direction of delicacy. All the ideas and modes which have ever been expressed in music are adequately portrayed by the modern organ. There is no greater opportunity open to music lovers than the inspiration afforded by attending these recitals. The voice of the organ today is the utterance of all human experience—of all unexpressible emotion. DR. H. H.

George Washington was his name, the son of a planter and Mary Bull, the latter's second wife. His nieces belonged to an old English family tracelable as far back as the 13th century. In 1787 Washington was made pre- pending officer of the Federal con- vention which had assembled to form the present federal constitution. After the constitution had been ratified and the time had come to elect a president, in 1789, there was no hesitation. By the unanimous vote of the elec- tive Washington was made the first presi- dent of the United States. He was re-elected in 1792. "The success of the new system a government was due mainly to the presences at that time of such a character as Washington; for he prevented party contact until the new government was finally established." WHY HE WON "It was only the self-reliance of Washington at Valley Forge which saved independence from being 'a loss bone.' "Washington was hooted and denounced for preferring starvation to defeat, but the persistence of the man never faltered. It was a lower light for most of those long, dragging dread, nine years—a fight against great odds—poverty against wealth, farmers against trained troops, battles against the wind-wet open But Washington believed in his cause and best of all he believed in himself. "It is only a question of which side gets discouraged first. I know we will outlast them. Give in? Never! This fight is mine!" "You can't whip a man who talks like that. "And as time went by, George the Third had brain coughs to sore it, Cornwallis felt it, all England began to acknowledge it, and best of all America knew it. "It was fighting that won the independence of the colonies; it was the generosity and self reliance of George Washington. And his self-reliance shaped his actions and finally spread over the land." Our political blessings, as a people, come to us through the unreleasing, unuexhilar self-reliance of Washington" - Elliot Hobbard. Some people continuity book for jobs, others continually try to avoid them. Neither class gets very far. "America has furnished to the world the character of Washington, and if our American institution had done nothing else, that above would have entitled them to the respect of mankind." Daniel Webster.

Knox Caps for Spring That the Father of our Country felt the importance of Christianity and acknowledged the futile power of man without God is shown in the following statement once made by him. "It is impossible to govern the world without God. He must be more than an infidel that lacks faith, and more than wicked that has not gratitude enough to acknowledge his obligation."

Thomas Jefferson "Washington sat with head bowed in solemn meditation."—John Fiske. "It was of a proud, yet gentle spirit, hapness and reserved among the rich and great, but ever ready to stoop his head to the lowly cottage door and be like a brother or a son at the poor man's fireside." Only a bit of characterization from Hanover's "The Amitious Guest," yet what a powerful suggestion for the vault of today. "The world toses us up and the world tooses us down," and a character in a recent play. All of which should remind us that in happy days we ought to lay back enough to cover the price of a shock absorber for our descent.

For the woman who knows鞋 style and value, and demands the constant comfort of an unchanging fit. Smart Overalls imported . A pair of English broadeloth overalls would still be a pair of overalls, wouldn't it? No fabric, however fine, would change that fact. Why? Simply because the *cut* would remain the same. You'd still know it was a pair of overalls because the design would be unchanged. As with overalls, so with the clothes you wear. No fabric, not even the richest, can give style to a suit unless the cut is correct. When the cut is distinctive, then the suit is absolutely certain to be good looking. The reputation of Society Brand Clothes differs from other clothes-makers in that it depends first of all upon the cut. The fabrics are splendid, of course. But the chief reason for the increasing popularity of these clothes is their unparalleled distinction of cut. SOCIETY BRAND CLOTHES
